My Age of Investment

  Chapter 457 The Second Harvest (seeking monthly pass)

   "Nicholas, don't be angry!"

  Steven looked at Nicolas who was on the verge of an outbreak, and smiled and soothed.

   "If this transaction is really disturbed, none of our shareholders present can benefit from it."

  Nicholas's eyes were furious, and he glanced at all shareholders except Xia Jingxing.

  Many shareholders bowed their heads, because the matter was indeed a bit unnatural.

   "Well, if you really want to sell Scape, we can't stop it."

   Steven looked at Nicholas without showing any weakness, "Our shareholders present just want to reach a more reasonable plan."

  Other shareholders nodded in agreement.

   "Yes, it's not a deliberate attempt to disrupt the **** transaction."

   "We just want to negotiate between shareholders to make a better transaction plan."

   "Nicholas, stop getting angry, sit down and discuss it slowly."

  ……

  Under the persuasion of a group of shareholders, Nicholas temporarily suppressed his anger and sat back in his seat, but still stared straight at Steven.

Steven stood up and said with a smile: "The pre-acquisition amount was 2.6 billion US dollars. Logically speaking, DFJ holds 12% of Scape's shares and can get 312 million US dollars, of which 156 million US dollars are in cash. Eaby common stock valued at $156 million.

  We can take out part of the cash, or eaby common stock, to exchange the remaining equity of the gambling agreement with other shareholders.

  To make it easier for everyone to understand, let me give you an example! "

   "Daren!"

  Steven looked at Xia Jingxing, who had been silent, and called his name with a smile.

  Xia Jingxing raised her head and stared at the other party.

  Steven smiled, "Daren, I don’t know if it’s inconvenient to give you an example."

   "As long as you don't curse, you are free!"

  Xia Jingxing seemed very generous, because he had somehow guessed Steven’s intentions.

  "Daren, you hold 8% of Scape's shares. If you successfully complete the bet, you can get a maximum of 120 million U.S. dollars in three years, or the equivalent of eaby stock."

  Xia Jingxing nodded, so there is nothing wrong with the calculation.

   "But if the bet fails, you will not get a dime."

  Steven smiled and said: "That is to say, this is actually a pair of poker, whether it is making a lot of money or nothing is unknown.

  I am now willing to spend an extra 10 million dollars to buy the set of cards in your hand with Darren. Would you like to? "

  Xia Jingxing shook his head, "I definitely don’t want to. You can win a poker of up to 120 million US dollars. Will I sell you 10 million US dollars?

  Anyway, the bet fails, which means nothing is gained. I am willing to bet! "

  Steven looked at the other shareholders and said, "Dylan is unwilling to sell this set of poker, what about the rest of you?"

   "I do!"

  Hongshu Ventures' shareholder representatives are very cooperative, and said with a smile: "Of course, the price is reasonable!"

  Other shareholders have also expressed their opinions, some are willing and some are unwilling.

  Seeing this, Nicolas understood, and De Fengjie put his idea on the 1.5 billion dollar gambling.

  So confident? Aren't you afraid of failing to bet against, causing Defengjie to lose everything?

Steven has his own consideration. First, he will not pay too high a price to buy the stakes of other shareholders; second, even if the gambling fails, he will not lose too much, even in the project of Scape. It's still a big profit.

   "If there is to be an exchange between shareholders, let's decide today!" Nicholas said lightly, "Eaby's people just let it go, it's out of date."

   "Of course, it won't delay too much time."

  Steven replied, and then began to fool other shareholders to sell "the gambling rights corresponding to the shares."

  Most people don’t want to sell because Steven’s offer is too low.

  Take Xia Jing's behavior as an example, Steven wants to buy a gambling interest with a maximum value of 120 million US dollars for 10 million U.S. dollars.

  For many people, it’s better to stay in their hands. If the bet is completed, wouldn’t it be possible to make another big profit?

  Fools only sell it!

   "30 million US dollars, I will sell you my "120 million US dollars"!"

Xia Jingxing, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke, looking straight at Steven.

  "Daren, don’t be kidding, you don’t think that you will be able to complete the bet 100% and get the 120 million US dollars. We are also at risk."

  Steven smiled and shook his head. He was optimistic about the smooth completion of the bet by Scape, but he was not 100% optimistic. He was 60% to 70% certain, so he wanted to use a small broad to engage in a unique "second harvest".

  But if the price is not well controlled, it will be harvested by others.

   "Then don't sell it. I'm not short of those thirty million dollars."

  Xia Jingxing is actually very interested in Steven’s proposal, but this thing is a psychological warfare, and he cannot easily express his thoughts.

  To be stuck!

  Steven asked a few more times, but basically no one wanted to sell it.

   "Steven, no one is a fool, so stop doing these things, it's boring!"

  Nicholas thought it was a bit funny, this Steven simply wanted to rub other people's IQ on the ground, and couldn't help but ridicule.

   "Dylan, twenty million dollars, can you sell it? This is the final offer."

  Steven thought about it, but put the breakthrough in Xia Jingxing's heart.

  Like Nicholas, last night their Defengjie also visited Scape shareholders.

  Among these shareholders, Xia Jingxing was the shortest-sighted. Others still hesitated. Only this Chinese rejected them without hesitation and made it clear that they must sell the shares of Scape.

"make a deal!"

  Xia Jingxing knew that basically she couldn't squeeze two or two oils and water, so she decided to accept it when it was good.

  Steven smiled with satisfaction, and looked at other shareholders, "Is there anyone else to sell? Let's buy it at Darren's price!"

  As a result, with Xia Jingxing taking the lead, someone really sold the "gambling rights".

  After all, whether the gambling will win or not will be announced in three years. Now it’s very fragrant to be safe!

  The last inventory, together with Xia Jingxing’s 8% equity, a total of 40% of the equity corresponding to the gambling equity was sold to Defengjie.

  Defengjie needs to pay a high price, and it needs to pay 100 million US dollars in cash!

  Xia Jingxing can be regarded as seeing how much the gambling nature of European and American capitalists is!

  Agricultural products and mineral energy futures were also the earliest inventions of these people.

  As long as it is profitable, everything can be gambled!

  Defengjie bet 100 million U.S. dollars, and if it wins, it will make 600 million U.S. dollars; if it loses, it will also make 200 million U.S. dollars in profit.

  Because DFJ invested in Scape in two consecutive rounds in Angel and A round, the total investment cost was less than 10 million US dollars.

  After the meeting, Nicholas pulled Xia Jingxing aside and persuaded: "Daren, you don't want to be fooled by Steven, that guy, it's just a gamble."

   "I also gamble!"

  Xia Jingxing still didn't say the second half: I bet, I can't bet in pairs.

  Nicholas is the founder, and will continue to work in Scape, and there are a lot of potential benefits.

  So Xia Jingxing is inconvenient to say things like "I can't complete a pair of gambling", isn't that cursing others?

  Seeing that Xia Jingxing was determined to "get it right", Nicholas stopped persuading him, after all, everyone has their own ideas.

  After reaching an internal consensus, the next day, the negotiations with eaby were restarted.

  No more moths appeared this time, and all the shareholders of Scape happily signed the acquisition agreement.

  At the same time, DFJ also signed an "rights transfer agreement" with Xia Jingxing.

  In other words, after signing this agreement, Scape has nothing to do with Xia Jingxing anymore.

After Ya Neck and other employees reviewed the agreement, Xia Jingxing was happy to sign the name.

  Adding this windfall of 20 million U.S. dollars, as well as the 104 million U.S. dollars in cash paid by eaby, and the equivalent of 1.04 U.S. dollars in eaby common stock, Xia Jingxing received a total of 228 million U.S. dollars.

  It’s just that eaby’s common stock cannot be sold for the time being. There is a six-month restriction period. Once the restriction period has passed, it can be sold in batches and turned into cash.
