Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Chapter 461 Negotiation

Because the next day is Sunday.

Haruko Maori formed a negotiation team on Monday and contacted Wade Thomas to inform him that Lin Baicheng had made a decision and that she would negotiate on her behalf.

The two parties made an appointment to meet in the afternoon, and Haruko Maori took people to Goldman Sachs' office in Los Angeles on time.

Wade Thomas also brought several people with him, and the two parties discussed in a conference room of Goldman Sachs.

Haruko Maori was the first to speak out: "Mr. Thomas, after careful consideration, the chairman believes that having more partners is not a bad thing, so he decided to sell part of the shares before the company's listing road show."

"It's great that Alan thinks that."

Although he had already expected it, Wade Thomas still had a smile on his face: "So, Ms. Maori, how many shares has Allen decided to sell this time?"

Haruko Mouri said: "15%, if Goldman Sachs and other institutions can afford it, 20% of the shares are also acceptable, and the maximum is only 20% of the shares."

Wade Thomas immediately said after hearing this: "I can answer you right now, 20% of the shares is not a problem at all."

Maori Haruko reminded aloud: "Mr. Thomas, the premise of all this is that the price of the shares transferred and sold by the chairman is not low. If the price cannot satisfy the chairman, then the chairman will not agree."

"Ms. Maori, Galaxy Games was originally listed with a market value of US$2.6 billion. Therefore, the total market value of the shares sold by Allen will be less than US$2.6 billion. I hope you can understand this. If it is higher than this market value, Goldman Sachs and others will not choose to buy shares."

Wade Thomas carefully reminded that as a negotiator for Goldman Sachs and other institutions, his bottom line is actually higher than what he said now, but the lower the price he negotiates, the greater the benefits he will get, and of course he will try his best. .

"But if the price is lower than this, why would the chairman sell his shares?"

After hearing this, Haruko Maori immediately retorted: "Based on the revenue and profit of Galaxy Game Company last year and the year before last, we don't think Galaxy Game Company will break the bank. Goldman Sachs and other institutions want to buy shares of Galaxy Game Company in advance, and they are not based on their optimism about Galaxy." Is it because of the future of the game company? In other words, if the chairman does not sell his shares now, after the company is listed for trading, the company's market value will definitely be higher than 2.6 billion US dollars. I don't think it will be difficult to exceed 3 billion US dollars. At that time, the chairman will If you sell shares, you will definitely get a higher price.”

"But it will take at least almost a year until Allen can reduce his shareholding, and he has so many shares. Reducing his shareholding will only suppress the company's stock price, and a large reduction will only drive the stock price below the issue price. .”

Wade Thomas also retorted, saying that both of them were actually speaking from their own standpoint.

"The chairman can slowly reduce his shareholding, and as long as Galaxy Games' revenue and profits this year are not lower than last year, the company's stock price will definitely rise sharply."

Maori Haruko paused as she spoke, looked at Wade Thomas and said: "It's already more than May now. Although an arcade game that Galaxy Games has developed will not be released for a while, the four previously owned games The sales volume of games this year is not low, especially the three games "Pac-Man", "Tank Battle" and "Donkey Kong"."

"Based on the current performance data, as long as one of the two arcade games developed by the company this year is a hit, then the company's profit this year will be no less than US$300 million. If both arcade games are hit, then this year's The profit will exceed US$300 million, and then the stock price will inevitably be competed by the capital market."

"Originally, Galaxy Games was listed with a market value of US$2.6 billion, which was already not high. Now that it sells its shares at a lower price, it is completely asking the chairman to sell his shares at a low price. The chairman will definitely not Accepted.”

"Ms. Maori, neither of Galaxy Games' two games have been launched this year. It doesn't make any sense to say that it will have a positive impact on the company's stock price."

After hearing this, Wade Thomas shook his head and said with a smile: "If you follow what you said, we can also think that the performance of the two games developed by Galaxy Games this year is not as good as expected, and the stock price will plummet after the company goes public. In order to protect our interests, so Allen should sell his shares to us at a lower market value.”

Maori Haruko said immediately: "Mr. Thomas, if you think so, I don't think there is any need for you to buy shares from the chairman. It was you who proposed this matter anyway, wasn't it?"

Wade Thomas did not argue with Haruko Maori about this, but said: "Ms. Maori, it is one thing for us to be optimistic about the prospects of Galaxy Games Company. It is another matter whether the stock price of Galaxy Games Company will break after it goes public. We It’s entirely possible that we might have made a mistake, otherwise wouldn’t we have made money in everything we did?”

"But you have good taste, don't you? And you should believe in the chairman. Whether you think he is capable or lucky, it only took him about two years to reach his current net worth."

Haruko Maori reminded Wade Thomas.

"you are right."

Wade Thomas was slightly silent. Lin Baicheng's fortune was generally known to Goldman Sachs and other institutions. Therefore, many people believed that Lin Baicheng was more likely to continue to succeed. At least before Lin Baicheng's undefeated golden body was shattered, everyone would subconsciously think that he was will continue to be successful.

Therefore, it becomes a matter of course to cooperate with successful people and make money with them.

After the small meeting, Wade Thomas spoke up and said: "Ms. Maori, regarding the sale price, I think we can put it aside and talk about other things first. What do you think?"

"Okay, I have no objection."

Maori Haruko pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement. Since Lin Baicheng asked her to talk to Wade Thomas, of course he hoped that the negotiation could be successful, so she had to control the situation carefully.

The two then talked about other things, such as the time for payment of funds after the sale of shares, how high the issue price of the company's road show should be raised, what proportion of shares should be purchased from Lin Baicheng and what proportion of public offerings of shares should be subscribed by institutions, etc. Wait, there are a lot of things that need to be negotiated by two people.

When accountants and lawyers were needed, the people brought by Haruko Maori and Wade Thomas came in handy, calculating and listing corresponding data, etc.

During the day's negotiations, Maori Haruko and Wade Thomas only agreed on some small details, but failed to reach an agreement on more areas. Therefore, the two decided to continue negotiations tomorrow, and both parties were prepared for long-term negotiations.
