Reborn IT Giant

For most creative game companies, acquisitions mean a change in the company's will, and it is difficult to ensure that the original independent development rights are maintained. In other words, acquisitions often mean the death of the company.

Although Zheng Peng is only an employee of the company and a part-time employee, after getting along with him for this period of time, he has fallen in love with the atmosphere of the company and the job even more. He really does not want to see the company be acquired.

"Why are you in a hurry? I didn't say no. Well, since you are here to negotiate with me as a representative, you must have a plan. Let's talk about your company's ideas first, and then I will decide whether to invest."

"In other words, if I buy this company and hand it over to you to run it, how are you going to run it? You have to know that since it is a business investment, you should follow the rules here, even if you are my brother.

."

To invest or not to invest, Zheng Yan already had the answer in his mind. The following conversation was just Zheng Yan's test of Zheng Peng.

"Brother, since you are interested in our company, how about you invest in our company? You don't need to invest too much, just one million US dollars is enough, so that we can continue to develop the game."

"As an investor, you can get 30% of the shares of our company. I can see that you are very interested in the game we are developing. I believe this is a result that everyone can accept."

All Zheng Peng wanted to do was to save the company, but he did not position himself correctly. He ignored some of what Zheng Yan said. What is happening now is a negotiation between the two companies, not an exchange between brothers.

"Zheng Peng, first of all, you have to understand that what we are sitting here is discussing a business, not family affairs. What you just said has already explained a lot of problems, but you obviously didn't realize it."

"If your purpose this time is to let me make venture capital, you will not use a negotiation tone, but directly set out your conditions, how many shares you are willing to pay, and how much capital I need to pay."

"And what you said has already told me one thing. Your company

We are basically at the end of our rope, and now we just want to sell them at a good price. Of course, these things are not a big problem for me, but you have to understand that in the future you will face businessmen, not your brother."

"Okay, now I'll give you another chance. You can talk about your company's conditions and see if you can convince me. However, it goes without saying about venture capital. I'm not very interested in this."

In Zheng Peng's heart, he has always regarded Zheng Yan as his idol. In his opinion, Zheng Yan's recognition is much more important than some things, at least more important than this investment, so he made the mistake. However, after Zheng

After Yan's advice, he quickly adjusted his mentality.

"Okay, our company does intend to sell, but we need to ensure the current business model. We need enough say in the company's future development and game development. This is the prerequisite for the company's sale. If you can accept it, we will

You can continue talking."

At this point, Zheng Peng stopped, and then looked at Zheng Yan. Seeing that Zheng Peng finally seemed to be negotiating, Zheng Yan did not speak, but motioned for him to continue.

Zheng Peng thought for a moment and continued: "In addition, we will only sell 55% of the shares this time. The three founders of the company need to retain 45% of the shares, and you need to pay

It’s three million dollars.”

Needless to say, 3 million, even if it is 30 million, Zheng Yan will not hesitate, because he is the only one who knows the potential of Blizzard. However, since it is a test for Zheng Peng, Zheng Yan will not easily agree.

"According to what you just said, I only need to pay one million US dollars to get 30% of the shares. Why did 55% become three million? I think two million is enough.

"Zheng Yan said with some fun.

"No, this is different. If it is only 30% of the shares, the company's controlling stake will not change, and we can guarantee that the company's development will not be influenced by others in the future. But 55% is

It’s different, the fate of the company is no longer in our hands.”

"Generally speaking, such large-scale share acquisitions will have a profit margin of about 20%.

Price, plus the interest you just showed, I think three million is a price acceptable to both parties."

What Zheng Peng lacked was experience, but his brain was flexible enough. At the beginning, he did not position himself correctly, so he was at a disadvantage from the beginning. However, Zheng Yan also did not hide his interest in "Warcraft"

past his eyes.

"I will not interfere with your business development. This is something you need to worry about. Having said that, I don't have the time and energy. With that time, I can make more money elsewhere."

"In other words, no matter how many shares I hold, it will not affect your decision-making. As for interest, it is just interest, not a reason to invest. It is difficult to convince me."

In fact, in Zheng Peng's Ming Dynasty, the more Zheng Yan said this, the more it showed that he was interested in Blizzard, so he was not in a hurry at all and continued: "You just said that we are talking about business, and your personal verbal commitment cannot explain it.

What. Besides, if it hadn’t been for those conversations just now, you might have been my only choice, but that’s not the case now.”

"I also said that I once approached the third brother. He was not so sure as he was not interested. But if I tell him that you are very interested in our company, do you think the third brother will invest?"

Zheng Peng said proudly.

Unknowingly, the conversation between the two no longer looked like a negotiation, but Zheng Peng also captured very important information. Although Liu Wei, Tang Hao, Zhao Weimin and Dong Chuan had all become famous, Zheng Yan had always been

The core of this circle.

In the eyes of Liu Wei and others, there is a kind of blind trust in Zheng Yan. As long as Zheng Yan is optimistic about it, he is probably willing to invest even if it is a piece of shit, because Zheng Yan has never failed, even if it is an investment that no one is optimistic about.

, and all were successful.

"Okay, whether you two are done with it or not, isn't it just a few million? Pengpeng, if your brother doesn't invest for you and your sister-in-law invests for you, look at how stingy your brother is."

Out of curiosity, Li Yanran had been secretly paying attention to the conversation between the two. In her opinion, it was just a matter of millions of dollars, and there was no need to waste so much time.
