Chapter 1480: Acquisition Plan Begins!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the sa ti, Eric, Xin Hailu, He Desheng, and ng Chang ford a four-man team. They were discussing the acquisition of Finger Gas in the conference room.
The four of them had already shared the information that they knew about each other, formulated a complete plan, and planned the schedule.
ng Chang’s situation was more special among them.
He first shared what Fan Xiaodong saw in the Arican capital market with everyone. Then, after the four of them ca up with the plan together, he redid the initial plan with Fan Xiaodong overnight.
Simply put, it was to avoid risks.
Insider trading might be severely illegal in the capital markets of various countries and would be severely punished, but there was a limit to the specific behavior.
It was not like obtaining so insider information and investing in the capital market was considered an insider transaction.
Otherwise, so professional empty companies in the market would first investigate a certain listed company and find evidence that this company was faking accounts or doing illegal things. Then, they would short this company and disclose these negative news, causing the stock price to plumt. What would they say?
Or perhaps, so people simply wanted to see the internal managent of this company chaotic and the decision malfunction. From there, they wanted to see the stock price of this company collapse and profit. What should they say?
On top of that, the executives of a certain listed company might have deliberately made so seemingly muddle-headed decisions, causing the capital market to plumt. How could they prove that he knew the answer or was he really muddle-headed? There was no way to prove it unless they really caught the hamr and found out that he was directly involved in the deal.
To put it further, if the executives of a certain company were to eat with their friends and say that the company’s benefits had been especially good recently and the situation was especially optimistic, would it be considered an insider deal if their friends bought the shares of this company?
If these were all considered internal transactions, many empty agencies would have been punished until they could not continue working.
Therefore, the key depended on the specific extent and whether there was any concrete evidence.
ng Chang and Fan Xiaodong thought that the shares of Finger Gas would fall because Fan Xiaodong noticed that the current CEO of Finger Gas had set up an investnt company and heard rumors that Dayak Corporation wanted to sell Finger Gas. Thus, he made a speculation.
These news were not insider information. Many people knew about it, but they were not as confident as Fan Xiaodong and ng Chang.
Since it was information that many people could obtain, it was only a personal judgnt that Fan Xiaodong and ng Chang made the shares of Finger Gas. It did not involve internal transactions.
At most, ng Chang could roughly estimate when Finger Gas would be able to reach the end. This was similar to his work in Tengda.
Would Tengda’s shares skyrocket if it really succeeded in acquiring Finger Gas?
That was possible.
Therefore, after so consideration, ng Chang decided to only make empty money. He would stop when Finger Gas’ share price was almost at the lowest point and not earn the money that rose later on.
After all, the first half of the plumt was done by charles. It had nothing to do with Tengda at all. Naturally, it had nothing to do with ng Chang and Fan Xiaodong. The subsequent explosion could be related. There was a certain risk. He would not do it.
That was not because ng Chang was timid. It was mainly because he was worried that his actions would make Boss Pei unhappy because he seed too greedy.
Boss Pei liked motivated subordinates, but he did not like greedy subordinates. The line between the two was very vague, but Boss Pei could distinguish it clearly.
It was better to restrain himself.
The other three people in the group also verified the news from other channels and found that it was very realistic after receiving ng Chang’s news.
Thus, the four of them quickly reached a consensus and formulated a acquisition plan.
Simply put, he would talk to Dayak Corporation first. However, during the process, it was a completely dispensable attitude and was not in a hurry to advance.
In fact, according to Boss Pei’s intentions, he wanted to buy Finger Gas as much as possible. However, if he made it particularly obvious from the beginning, Dayak Corporation might ask for too much. It would be very difficult to achieve negotiations.
That was to let Dayak Corporation know that Tengda Corporation was a little interested in acquiring Finger Gas. However, acquiring Finger Gas was only to stabilize GOG’s market position. It did not matter if they could not buy it.
What’s more, he had to keep the negotiations a secret. He could not let the outside world know, especially not Char and the others.
At the sa ti, they watched as he began his performance.
In order to use the lowest price to buy the shares of Finger Gas in the hands of Yak Corporation, he would definitely think of a way to attack Finger Gas’ share price. As for what thod he would use, no one could guess, but there was no need to guess.
He just had to wait patiently for him to play against Dayak Corporation.
Tengda had also maintained a close relationship with Dayak Corporation as charter revealed Dayak Corporation’s bottom line.
Dayak Corporation would have sold their shares to the investnt firm behind charles if not for Tengda Corporation’s intervention and seeing Finger Gas’ valuation fall day by day without being able to find a more suitable buyer.
However, the situation was completely different now that Tengda Corporation was involved.
Dayak Corporation suddenly announced that they would sell all their shares to Tengda Corporation at a critical mont when he thought that everything was going smoothly and was just one step away!
His expression and reaction would definitely be very interesting then.
Of course, the price that Tengda would obtain in the end would definitely be higher than the lowest price that charles. However, that did not matter at all. After all, it was not easy for charles to be busy for so long.
Eric gave many suggestions and perfected many details while discussing this plan.
That was because he knew Dayak Corporation and Finger Gas too well.
Eric knew very well that there was a high chance that this plan by him would succeed. However, it was precisely because of this that he had a higher chance of failure after Tengda intervened.
ng Chang swiped his cell phone. “Eh? Finger Gas seems to have made a move. I’ll share the news in the group.”
The others took out their cell phones to check.
In an interview with a foreign dia, he publicly expressed that he was considering rging the Asian server!
Of course, he used more dignified and beautiful words. For example, he wanted to further promote communication between Asian players, improve the level of the entire Asian server, integrate operations, and so on.
However, it was obvious that gars who knew a little about IOI knew the real reason: IOI’s local server was too miserable. The loss of players after the international competition made things worse for the local server. The queue for high-end rankings was getting longer and longer. The fish pond was also showing signs of severe exhaustion. If it was not convinced, gars would not be able to continue playing!
In fact, there had been various guesses about IOI wanting to integrate the server a long ti ago. However, there had been no confirmation. Now, the current CEO of Finger Gas had said it personally. The credibility was very high.
Other than that, soone also revealed the April Fool’s Day event that Finger Gas was planning.
On the surface, this did not seem to be an internal leak. It was a coincidence. However, to ng Chang and the others, this behavior was very suspicious.
In fact, it was not a big problem to look at this April Fool’s Day event alone. The key was that it was similar to the previous activities. There were basically different types of skins.
Apart from that, there was also a paywall event.
To gars, this was unacceptable!
That was because gars had already caused an uproar during the Chinese New Year event. They had scolded Finger Gas and Dayak Corporation.
Wasn’t it obvious that there were new skins even though the ga chanism, gaplay, and balance were not done well?
What’s more, he did not even pretend this ti. He even organized a paywall event. It was ridiculous!
Of course, the gars had a strong response. There were a lot of criticism, especially Dayak Corporation.
That was because everyone had tacitly agreed that Dayak Corporation would definitely arrange for any paywalls or money-making activities!
However, ng Chang and the others knew that it might not be Dayak Corporation’s idea this ti.
Dayak Corporation might have sufficient motive to make a profit and run away, but charles had more sufficient motive. He could use this thod to further create public opinion that was not beneficial to Finger Gas and lower the stock price.
What’s more, Dayak Corporation would not stop him from doing this. They could not clarify either. They could only take the bla for him obediently.
He could only say that he had figured Dayak Corporation out.
If this guess was correct, it might not be the end but the beginning.
It was most likely that he was just trying his luck and taking the first step in his plan. He must have many other ways to further lower the stock price of Finger Gas and achieve his goal smoother.
The four of them looked at each other and stood up.
“The plan has more or less been finalized. Charice has also started. Let’s go!”
...
In the afternoon, Wu Bin checked the comnts online about the Tengda special recruitnt exam.
As expected, the public opinion changed!
Different voices appeared in the popular comnts that were celebrating Tengda’s conscience.
“On the surface, this looks like a good thing. However, I’m a little worried. Will Tengda be dragged down by its own benefits policy one day? Previously, the high benefits were at least given to young people who were seriously recruited into the company. It could motivate them to work hard. However, the people who are specially recruited now have either lost their fighting spirit subjectively or are lacking in energy due to physical and family reasons. That would slow down the efficiency of the entire company!”
“Indeed, to put it bluntly, the so-called ‘social responsibility’ is also a ‘social burden’ for companies. I think it’s good enough that everyone is treated equally and joined based on exams. There’s no need to give these people special treatnt, right?”
“I’m very afraid that Tengda would be dragged down by a group of slackers… From the perspective of working as a worker, of course, I want to work less and get more salary. However, from the perspective of consurs, if Tengda’s employees are lazy, how can they provide us with better products and services?”
“I think Tengda’s current situation is very dangerous. It seems to be setting up a character. Any character setting, be it celebrities or companies, would not have a good ending. As long as they set up a character setting, soone’s character will collapse one day…”
“I’m also worried. The key is, is Boss Pei really not trying to make money? Who can resist the temptation of capital? Even if they can do it now, what about in the future? Even if they can do it themselves, what about the other higher-ups? The higher you raise Tengda, the worse it will fall… In any case, you’re the one bragging and stepping on you. I think Tengda’s current state is quite good. Don’t continue to raise it. It’s really dangerous.”
“I think there’s a bigger threat to this matter: Tengda must not turn into a ‘paying tribute to ransom’ and moralize all other companies, causing the entire entrepreneurial environnt to worsen! If that happens, it would really be a bad thing if you do it out of kindness!”
