d-wave company New York office, small conference room.
Shi Lei expressed his domineering attitude that he wanted to acquire D-wave, which made everyone in the conference room stunned.
Xiao Bo smiled bitterly in his heart. He originally estimated that according to Shi Lei's shrewdness, he would not express his thoughts so frankly, so as not to be at a disadvantage in the negotiations.
But that's the truth. Shi Lei bluntly expressed that he wanted to acquire d-wave company.
The three personnel of d-wave company all looked at Shi Lei happily. Although they predicted from the beginning that Dream Entertainment might acquire d-wave company, they did not expect that Shi Lei would say it directly.
"Mr. Shi, do you dream entertainment company want to acquire our d-wave company?" asked Hoyt Vandenberg, president of d-wave company, with confirmation.
Hoyt did not make Shi Lei wrong this time. His tone was filled with a strong attentiveness and his eyes looked at Shi Lei long-lastingly, which made Shi Lei feel a little uncomfortable.
"Mr. Vandenberg, how much do you plan to sell D-wave company?" Shi Lei asked.
Hoyt is the absolute controlling shareholder of D-wave Company, holding 75% of the shares, and he can completely decide the fate of D-wave Company.
As for Vice President Santford and Technical Director Walter, although they occupy 25% of the shares, they are completely unable to control D-wave's decisions. They only have the right to suggest, but no decision-making power.
D-wave Company is not a listed company and is not circulated in the stock market. Therefore, it cannot achieve wholly-owned holding of D-wave Company through the stock market just like sniping amd company.
As the president of D-wave, Hoyt Vandenberg actually doesn't like this company very much. Hoyt President is just a investor. Vice President Santford is also a funding partner, and D-wave's real
The entrepreneur is technical director Walter Smith.
The development path of d-wave clearly explains the essence of the two presidents who do not like d-wave. d-wave likes to brag about advertising so much that the computer technology industry does not agree with this company, and even
Disgusted.
Hoyt Vandenberg did not answer Shi Lei's question and asked back: "Mr. Shi, what price are you dream entertainment company going to acquire our d-wave company?"
Vice President Santford exclaimed: "Mr. Shi, our D-wave company is the world's most advanced technology company for research and development and production of quantum computers. Our company has already developed a formal commercial quantum computer as a future technology.
Develop mainstream. Quantum computers have better performance than electronic computers. Mr. Shi, you should be very clear about this, right?"
Technical director Walter Smith frowned slightly and said nothing. He didn't like the company's development method, especially the nonsense. This was not Walter's style at all.
Walter Smith is not very proficient in business matters. The reason why he came to participate in the negotiations this time was that Walter's idea was very simple, that is, D-wave company joined the local tycoon of Dream Entertainment, and thus obtained a large amount of R&D funds.
At present, Walter is very dissatisfied with the R&D funding issue. Many times, no matter what R&D and experiments Walter plans to do, D-wave will not be able to provide corresponding R&D funds.
In fact, this cannot be blamed for Hoyt and Santford, because as investors, they invest in D-wave. They are not interested in quantum computers, but want to make money!
Capital investment is just to gain more capital!
Shi Lei looked at Hoyt and Santford with a smile and said, "Mr. Hoyt, Mr. Santford, our evaluation department of Dream Entertainment has made an evaluation for your d-wave company. Your company is now
The market value, including brand value, is only worth about $12 million.”
The evaluation department of Dream Entertainment did make an assessment of D-wave, but not $12 million, but $22 million.
Shi Lei does have problems with negotiation skills, but Shi Lei is not a fool, how could he not know anything?
President Hoyt immediately retorted: "Mr. Shi, please forgive me for your rudeness. The evaluation department of your Dream Entertainment Company has unfairly evaluated our company! The market value of our company, according to our internal evaluation, is about
About $100 million.”
Vice President Santford also said: "That's right! Mr. Shi, we are the only manufacturer in the world that officially uses quantum computers, and it is not comparable to other concept companies."
Shi Lei sneered in his heart. Hoyt and Santford really think he is Kaizi. Do you want to slap him hard?
"It seems that we can't continue to talk!" Shi Lei stood up and prepared to leave the small conference room of D-wave Company.
Hoyt and Santford were stunned again. Isn’t negotiation just a bargaining process? Shi Lei, this guy, is completely unreasonable!
Just like Hoyt, Santford and Shi Lei play Landlords together. When Hoyt scored four twos, Shi Lei directly scored five nines. There was only one deck of cards in total. How did five nines come?
When Hoyt and Santford understood Shi Lei's five nines, that is, Shi Lei said straight to the point and wanted to acquire D-wave, they both released a new card with three, four, five, six, and Shi Lei directly gave five, seven
Bajk, it's completely like playing without following the rules of the game.
How can we not bargain in business negotiations?
"Mr. Shi, please wait. If you are not satisfied with our price, you can tell me what your dream entertainment company thinks." Hoyt quickly called Shi Lei, afraid that Shi Lei would really leave like this.
D-wave is no longer able to play with in the hands of Hoyt and Santford!
Later generations of D-wave did face the rhythm of being unable to play. Because Le cooperated to buy a quantum computer, which was only 15 million US dollars in revenue.
This is the first time in the history of D-wave that it sold commercial products of quantum computers.
Shi Lei, who was kept, did not sit down immediately, but turned around and looked at Hoyt and Santford, and said, "President Hoyt, Vice President Santford, you have no intention of selling d-wave company,
Why continue talking?"
Hoyt hurriedly said: "We do have plans to sell D-wave Company, Mr. Shi, we can talk in detail."
"President Hoyt, please forgive me for your rudeness. First, your D-wave company's quantum computer is not officially used. The quantum computer you took out this year is just an experimental model, right? Your external publicity is
Formal commercial use is just for the company's promotional needs. Our Dream Entertainment Company is very clear about this. Second, how much is your company worth. Our Dream Entertainment Company also understands very well that the price you falsely reported has no meaning."
Shi Lei paused and continued, "If you are sincere in selling the company, just give me a final offer. Your d-wave company is not our only choice. Acquisition of d-wave company is not optimistic about your company, it is just
I'm just bored!"
Such a reason for catching hair shocked the three staff members of D-wave Company once again!
Even Xiao Bo could not confirm for a moment whether Shi Lei really wanted to acquire D-wave Company or was it just boring, as Shi Lei said.
Hoyt's expression was changing. He didn't know whether Shi Lei's words were true or false.'Oh! How should we respond to this damn bastard? If this bastard is really just bored and play, our price is too high, according to his previous
I'm afraid I can't sell it to him!'
Santford coughed lightly and pushed his phone to Hoyt. On the screen of the phone, on the short message draft interface, Santford entered a price of 30 million US dollars.
Hoyt considered it and accepted the price, so he said to Shi Lei: "Mr. Shi, our final offer is 30 million US dollars!"
Without saying a word, Shi Lei took out the checkbook of the Swiss Bank's overseas account, signed a check on it, and placed it on the conference table.
Hoyt and Santford smiled on their faces.
However, the next moment, their smiles froze. Shi Lei broke their fantasy and said, "Twenty million US dollars, accept this price, and start the process of equity transfer agreement today. If you don't accept it, I'm too lazy to have sex with you.
I'm having fun! I'm going to inspect the amd company, and I'm not interested in delaying it with you for too long."
Hoyt and Santford looked at each other, both showing a hesitant look. Technical director Walter suddenly spoke: "Mr. Shi, if you acquire D-wave, will you invest sufficient R&D funds?"
Shi Lei glanced at Walter and said with an arrogant expression: "It depends on whether D-wave's company is worth investing!"
Walter promised: "Mr. Shi, I can assure you that your investment is worth it! I am the technical director of d-wave. I understand the development potential of quantum computer technology! If the funding is sufficient, my research and development progress will
It will be faster! I just need sufficient R&D funding, and I don’t want to pay too much attention to other things!"
Hoyt and Santford looked at Walter angrily. Walter was "snatching" at Dream Entertainment. His subtext was: 'If the acquisition fails, he can join Dream Entertainment, just enough
R&D funding!'
Shi Lei laughed a few times, looked at Hoyt and said, "President Hoyt, think about time in ten seconds. After ten seconds, I will no longer be interested in your d-wave company!"
Facing the strong Shi Lei, Hoyt and Santford completely lost and chose to accept Shi Lei's conditions so that the technical director Walter would not run away with Shi Lei, and their d-wave company would become a completely empty shell.
In the next two days, Xiao Bo followed three senior executives of D-wave to return to Bennaby, Ghana, to handle the equity transactions of D-wave.
Dream Entertainment has not announced this acquisition yet, and Shi Lei plans to postpone it a little later. Because it is now June 9, Liberty time, and the player activity of Dream Entertainment in New York City is about to begin.
The joint show between Gabriel and Shi Lei is about to be staged...
