My Age of Investment

  Chapter 456 Disruptors (seeking monthly ticket)

  Xia Jingxing sat on the bedside and pondered for a while, Nicholas called.

  As soon as he picked up the phone, there was a hearty laughter from the other end, “Dylan, where are you? Let’s take you to see the nightlife of Luxembourg.”

   "Um... there will be business negotiations tomorrow?"

  Xia Jingxing subconsciously wanted to refuse. After flying on the plane for so long, he was really tired now, and he didn't want to go to waves.

   "It's okay, just have two glasses of wine, which hotel are you in? I'll pick you up!"

  Nicholas didn't seem to understand the euphemistic decline in Xia Jing's jargon. He insisted on calling Xia Jingxing, which seemed a bit stalking.

  From the usual understanding, Nicholas is not such a lack of eyesight.

  Xia Jingxing's heart moved, and soon he tasted the deep meaning, most of which wanted to win him over.

  Steven is engaged in tandem in private, maybe someone has already stabbed Nicholas.

  No, it shouldn’t be a coincidence that Nicholas called after Steven left.

  Drinking should be just a cover, I guess I still want to talk to myself about the sale of Scape.

  Xia Jingxing also did not expect that there are so many secret fights in this section.

  In the final analysis, wealth is still moving!

   So Xia Jingxing reported the name of the hotel and the room number, hung up the phone, and quietly waited for Nicolas to arrive in the room.

  He didn’t wait long, and Nicholas arrived after about ten minutes of touching it.

  As soon as he entered the house, Nicholas smiled and held Xia Jingxing's shoulders, "Go, Darren, it's still early, go out and play."

  Xia Jingxing waved her hand, "You don’t have to play, you are so sleepy. You must have something to do with me, just tell me!"

  Nicholas' eyes flickered, he pulled a chair and sat down, and began to talk about the differences between him and De Fengjie.

  Xia Jingxing sat next to him, quietly acting as a listener.

  After briefly telling the inside story, Nicholas added: “Darren, now Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google are already, or are preparing to enter the field of Internet telephony.

  Scap's own user growth has also fallen into a certain predicament!

  If it is said to be able to capture greater benefits, I would not decide to sell Scapp now.

  Have Steven contacted you? Don't be fooled by him. He is a greedy guy and doesn't understand actual business at all..."

  Xia Jingxing listened to Nicholas continuously speaking for more than ten minutes without interjecting in the middle. After the other party finished speaking, he gave the other party an affirmative answer.

   "Don't worry, I'm always on your side. Whether you want to continue to operate Scape or sell it, I will support you!"

  Nicholas heard this, and saw Xia Jingxing's face calmly, a little relieved.

  He was afraid that Xia Jingxing, the super-rich, was persuaded by Steven to join forces to destroy him.

  Now Xia Jingxing has finished his statement. Nicholas did not talk more about this topic, and tentatively asked Xia Jingxing to go out for a drink. After being rejected, he did not force him and left alone.

  ……

  ……

  The next day.

  In the conference room of a luxury hotel in Luxembourg, the shareholders of Scape and people sent by eaby lined up on both sides of the long table, looking at each other and looking at each other.

  Xia Jingxing pays more attention to the middle-aged man who is nearly 40 years old sitting in the opposite center—Pierre Omidyar, Iranian-American, founder and chairman of the board of directors of eaby.

  Omidyar has black hair and a bushy beard. He noticed that the Asian boy opposite was looking at him. He also smiled at Xia Jingxing and nodded.

  This is Xia Jingxing’s first meeting with Omidyar. Facebook has chosen Amazon as its partner, while eaby has formed an alliance with Diaoyou and Juyou. They are enemies and not friends.

   Just one yard into one yard, and the other party actively released his kindness now, Xia Jingxing also nodded to the other party gracefully, which was regarded as a greeting.

   "For this acquisition, eaby is willing to pay 1.3 billion US dollars in cash, plus 1.3 billion US dollars of eaby common stock, which is 2.6 billion US dollars as an upfront cost. Once the acquisition agreement is signed, the delivery can be officially started.

In addition, there will be three years of performance betting. If Scape can successfully complete the performance commitment, three years later, it will be able to obtain an additional transaction value of up to 1.5 billion US dollars. This money is at the discretion of eaby to pay in cash or equity. .

  Total transaction consideration totals US$4.1 billion..."

  A subordinate next to Omidyar broke the calm of the room and began to describe the transaction plan in detail.

  Xia Jingxing smiled and listened quietly. The Internet companies that have emerged in the past two years have looked at the world. Apart from Facebook, the most impressive one is Scapp.

After the other party's introduction, Nicolas scanned the surrounding shareholders and said with a smile: "The specific transaction plan has just been described by eaby's friends. Everyone has seen the detailed plan a long time ago. Here I am. I won't go into details again.

  If there are no other questions, let's formally sign the agreement today! "

  Nicolas just finished speaking, Steven suddenly said: "Hold on!"

  Everyone's eyes are attracted to the past!

  Even Xia Jingxing is no exception!

  He guessed that Nicholas must have found more than himself last night.

  The other shareholders have no objection, this Defengjie also jumped out to make a fuss.

  "For this transaction, I think there are many kinds of plans that can be adopted!"

  Being watched by so many people, Steven is not nervous at all, smiling and continuing to say: "The initial payment of 2.6 billion U.S. dollars, and the later payment of 1.5 billion U.S. dollars, there is a three-year span in between.

  I think that the demands of each shareholder are different. Some people want to get more cash, or get the money earlier.

  Of course, there are people who are willing to wait for the moment when the result of the bet is released.

  I think we can make some special trading plans among our shareholders to meet the demands of different shareholders. "

  Nicholas’s eyes were bloodshot. Last night he ran into a number of hotels and called the shareholders one by one to chat.

  I thought that the situation had been stabilized, and Defengjie, who was hard to hear alone, should also give up unrealistic ideas.

   But in the end, a heavy slap was slapped on his face.

  Nicholas didn’t want the people of eaby to read the jokes, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked with a cold face, "Mr. Steven, what do you want to express?"

  Steven kept a professional smirk, "Nothing else, I just feel that the trading plan is too rigid and can be made more flexible."

   After all, Steven looked at the representatives of several venture capital institutions such as Bershang Ventures and Index Investment, and asked with a smile: "What do you think?"

   "We think we can negotiate more!"

   "Yes, shareholders have different demands!"

   "Let’s discuss it again!"

  ...

  Scape’s shareholders, except for Xia Jingxing, have expressed their opinions.

  Xia Jingxing looks at his mouth and nose, and his nose looks at the heart, like a sculpture, motionless.

  Nicholas had a crush on seeing this!

  Last night he contacted so many shareholders, but this one who promised to make a promise did not turn back at this time.

  Eaby chairman Omidyar looked at the noisy side and said unceremoniously: “Everyone, eaby is only willing to pay US$2.6 billion to US$4.1 billion for this merger.

  This is our final reserve price! "

  Speaking of this, Omidyar gave Nicholas a slanted look, “If you want to use this low-level method to force eaby to pay a higher purchase price!

  That can only be said that they made the wrong idea. I only waited for two days, it is outdated! "

   After that, Omidyar got up and left without any muddle, leading Eaby and his party.

  Nicholas wanted to stay, but he didn't want to lose his momentum, so he could only watch Eaby and his party leave.

  Waiting for all the eaby people to leave, and only a group of shareholders of Scape remained in the meeting room, Nicholas's eyes became extremely gloomy.

  He looked at Steven, the instigator, and said coldly: "Now you have a successful spoiler, are you satisfied?"
