Chapter 723: Shocking reversal

  Chapter 723 Shocking reversal

   "Mr. Piech, we meet again!"

  Wolfgang Porsche stretched out his hand mechanically to Ferdinand Piech, and said with a blank expression.

   "Cousin, can't you call me cousin?"

   Regarding Wolfgang Porsche's performance, Ferdinand Piech didn't think he was disobedient, but instead joked, "I didn't expect this to happen, my good cousin!"

   "Don't bully people too much!"

Wolfgang Porsche's face turned red in an instant, and he said viciously, "Today I am representing the Porsche Group to discuss cooperation with the Volkswagen Group. There are no cousins ​​here. If you continue to pester me like this, you may Don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."

   "Okay, two, let's talk about business!"

Seeing that the two men were about to turn against each other if they disagreed, Zhong Shi hurriedly intervened, "Gentlemen, the subject of our discussion this time is the cooperation between the Volkswagen Group and the Porsche Group. Don't talk about other unnecessary things. Do you understand what I mean?"

  Ferdinand Piëch was in a good mood, and nodded with a smile. Wolfgang Porsche snorted coldly and turned his head away in disdain.

  Both of them are unwilling and dare not offend Zhong Shi at this time, so naturally they can only follow what Zhong Shi said. It's just that one is full of joy, and the other is unwilling.

This is the meeting room of the Porsche Group. After the last hope was also shattered, the Porsche Group soon received a takeover offer from the Volkswagen Group. Because they knew the outcome a long time ago, the Porsche Group did not continue to delay, and quickly gave a response.

   So the two sides had today's meeting.

  Zhong Shi appeared as the foreign aid of the Volkswagen Group, that is, their financial backer. This acquisition case involving three parties requires their upper management to reach a specific structure, and the specific implementation process will be discussed in detail by financial consultants, so so far, apart from these bigwigs, one from the financial consultant None of the people.

  Volkswagen Group came from Ferdinand Piercy and Stegen. As for Porsche, Wolfgang Porsche and Wei Dekind, and Zhongshi and Gao Dongfang as the third party.

  Six people walked into the office, and the door was slammed shut.

   "This is Mr. Gao Dongfang, from Huaxia, this time as my assistant and partner!"

Before the meeting started, Zhong Shi unceremoniously took the main seat, and casually introduced Gao Dongfang to the people from Porsche, then knocked on the table seemingly casually, and signaled to both parties: "Gentlemen, we will start now." ?”

  Although he said it as if he was asking for other people's opinions, there was an irrefutable breath in his tone. The expressions of Wolfgang Porsche and Ferdinand Piech changed, and then slowly returned to their normal expressions.

   Coincidentally, neither of them spoke.

   "The current situation is that the Porsche Group holds a part of the shares of the Volkswagen Group, but it will not be able to continue to acquire the shares of the Volkswagen Group in the future. The Volkswagen Group currently intends to reverse the acquisition of the shares of the Porsche Group. The two parties have no objection to these, right?"

Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything, Zhong Shi nodded secretly, very satisfied with their attitude, "Actually, in my opinion, this is a win-win deal. As a third party, we will fund this deal." The full support of the Internet. Now, let’s discuss the way of cooperation and what form it will take.”

   "No matter what, we will not give up our controlling stake in the Porsche Group!"

As soon as Zhong Shi finished speaking, Wolfgang Porsche jumped out, "30% of the equity is our bottom line. Another point is that we do not accept the direct leadership of the Volkswagen Group. It is best for this part of the equity to be controlled by another The company will hold it."

   Even if there is no way out, Wolfgang Porsche still wants to retain the last dignity, that is, he does not want to be directly led by Ferdinand Piëch. Even if there is an additional holding company in the middle, it is no different from the absence of this link, but he still insists on doing so.

   "We either don't buy it, or we eat it all!"

  Ferdinand Piech naturally refused. Now that they have foreign aid, their goal is to swallow the Porsche Group in its entirety. For this reason, he and Zhong Shi and others had already greeted each other.

   "This is absolutely impossible!"

  Wolfgang Porsche's face suddenly changed, and he shouted in a sharp voice, "Can you take so much equity? Even if you can, I will definitely not agree!"

   "Even if we can't take it now, we need at least 49.9% of the shares this time. There is no room for negotiation on this. By the way, we will discuss the price after we reach an agreement on this shareholding ratio."

Ferdinand Piech did not dwell on this issue, he is currently the winner, there is no need to dwell on these details, "But we need to sell part of the equity. I am talking about the options of the Volkswagen Group, according to the equity we acquired in Porsche , we need the Porsche Group to take out a part of the equity to exercise rights for third parties."

   "Warning the options we have on hand?"

Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin glanced at each other, and a sense of vigilance arose in both of their hearts. This was silently reducing the threat of the Porsche Group to the Volkswagen Group. The options we have on hand are exercised, and you can completely sell the equity on hand.”

"Why don't we sell our equity in hand? I still have to ask you this question, Mr. Chairman of the Porsche Group!" Ferdinand Piëch's face turned cold instantly, and he smiled sullenly, "Now there are more than 50.1% of the shares are in your hands, plus the part of the shares held by the government, what other shares do you think we can transfer?"

   "About this point, it is our principle, and we will never back down!" He finally added.

  Similarly, Wolfgang Porsche's attitude is also very tough, "No, this is also our principle."

"This…"

   The negotiation quickly reached a stalemate. Zhong Shi looked at the two parties who were not willing to give in, and suddenly felt a headache. Although he had long expected that the negotiations between the two parties would not be so smooth, the almost grudge behavior of the two still made him feel helpless.

   "I think the reason why the two are worried about this part of the equity is that they are afraid that the institutions that control this part of the equity will fall into it!"

At this time, Gao Dongfang said lightly, and immediately attracted everyone's attention, "If we switch to Porsche in the process of holding it, then it is still possible for the Porsche Group to acquire the Volkswagen Group. Speaking to the Volkswagen Group, the Porsche Group's plan to acquire the Volkswagen Group will never be possible, and the Porsche Group is still in danger of losing its independence, is that true?"

   Both sides nodded in unison.

   "Since this is the case, things will be easy!"

Gao Dongfang talked eloquently, "If both parties have such considerations, then we can add a clause to the cooperation plan, and we will remain neutral to the institution that acquires this part of the equity. We restrain our hands, and both Don't help each other, so you should be relieved, right?"

"Of course, before you absolutely control a certain party, the equity we hold will not be transferred to any party. But if in the future, the Volkswagen Group acquires more shares in the Porsche Group, or the Porsche Group If we can convince the Lower Saxony state government, we can consider transferring the equity we have in hand. It is acceptable to leave us with a certain possibility and time for cashing out, right? "

  Naturally, regardless of Huatou and Tianyu Fund, it is impossible for them to hold this part of the equity forever. On the one hand, it is because there is time for investment, and on the other hand, it is pressure from the Volkswagen Group and even Germany. So no matter what, they will sell this part of the equity sooner or later, but when to sell, Gao Dongfang cleverly threw this issue to the opposing parties.

  Hearing Gao Dongfang's compromise method, the two sides thought about it for a while, and felt that they were both acceptable, and immediately nodded in unison.

"If the remaining 24% of the options are exercised, it is equivalent to an increase of about 24% of the shares of the Volkswagen Group by the current Porsche Group. But it must be understood that this part of the shares is neutral, and 12% of the shares are in the name of the Volkswagen Group. Under the Porsche Group, 12% of the shares are in the name of the Porsche Group, but the actual control and voting rights are in our hands."

  Gao Dongfang continued, "If that's the case, shouldn't we have any more differences?"

"no problem!"

  Coincidentally, the two said in unison again. But the next moment, the two realized that they had done the same thing as someone else, and rolled their eyes at the same time.

   "So leave the rest to others?"

  Zhong Shi clapped his hands, stood up with a relaxed face, and suggested, "If there is nothing else, then shall we leave?"

   "No, I still stick to our previous opinion and buy the Porsche Group in its entirety, otherwise I won't buy it at all!"

   At this moment, a sudden change occurred. Ferdinand Piech suddenly changed his attitude and insisted, "Yes, it is 100% of the equity, otherwise this transaction will fall through!"

   "No!" Wolfgang Porsche became furious like an enraged lion, "If you want to swallow all the Porsche shares, then step over my corpse!"

   "If they also talk about collapse, then we can only go to sleep on the track!"

Seeing that Wolfgang Porsche was about to lose control, Weidekin quickly grabbed him and whispered in his ear, "Boss, this is really our last chance. If we insist on going our own way at this time, we will not only offend the Volkswagen Group." , and people like Zhong Shi.”

  Wolfgang Porsche woke up suddenly, and quickly looked towards Zhong Shi, only to see Zhong Shi frowned, his face was blue and cold, obviously quite dissatisfied.

  If Zhong Shi is enraged and pushed to the other side, the other party will fully support the Volkswagen Group in acquiring the Porsche shares. No matter how unwilling Wolfgang Porsche is, I am afraid it will be impossible to hold on to it in the end.

   "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on this time!"

  Wei Dejin continued to persuade, "But didn't Zhongshi tell us before that the equity they have on hand can only be kept for a period of time? Why don't we take the opportunity to optionize the remaining equity and take a gamble to see if they have cash?"

   "Is that so?" Wolfgang Porsche also regained his composure and asked in a low voice, "Is it possible?"

   "Gamble!" Wei Dejin's face suddenly revealed a fierce expression, "So far, we really have no other way, this is the last resort."

   "Have you two discussed it?"

   Zhong Shi saw that the two had been discussing in low voice for a long time, and he felt a little impatient in his heart, so he said immediately, "I have one more thing to announce."

   "We agree to the full transfer, but the transfer method needs to be discussed!"

  Weidekin immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "I'm afraid we can't finish talking today. It's okay, we have time to continue talking. By the way, Mr. Zhong, what do you want to say?"

   "The funds we use to exercise the rights will come from a company in the Middle East. It's enough for the two of you to know the real contributors at that time, and that's what the public announcement says."

  Zhong Shi took a deep look at Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin, "Remember, it is very important that China's funds or Tianyu Fund are not involved in this transaction!"
