Who is this? So arrogant!
Looking at everyone’s actions, Ye Cangtian was quite displeased. However, judging from the other party’s tone, this man in the silver-gray suit was not someone to be trifled with. The negotiations inside were likely to hit a snag.
“Kid, you’ve heard what Mr. Zhou said.”
“You have two choices. First, you can scram far away.”
“Second, we’ll make you suffer a little.”
Two men in black had already arrived beside Ye Cangtian. One of them spoke with a threatening tone.
“Just you guys?”
Ye Cangtian glanced at them disdainfully. But then he considered that the situation inside was still unclear, and it would be bad if Tang Xinwan’s business was disturbed.
So, his eyes flickered, and he said with a smile, “Fine, I’ll go!”
With that, Ye Cangtian turned around and retreated directly from the corridor.
…
Inside the luxurious private room.
Tang Xinwan and the two general managers, Chen Zekai and Gong Xin, had already discussed the acquisition matters.
Just as they were taking out the documents, and the three parties were about to sign the contract.
“Excuse me, sorry to interrupt!”
At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a voice came in.
Tang Xinwan and the others couldn’t help but look over. The sudden appearance of someone made everyone present somewhat bewildered.
The man in the silver-gray suit put down his briefcase and smiled slightly at the four people, performing a standard gentleman’s bow.
“Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Zhou Bang, Vice President of Baishan Pharmaceutical’s Kyoto branch!”
Baishan Pharmaceutical!
Upon hearing this name, whether it was Chen Zekai, Gong Xin, or Tang Xinwan and Murong Yu, their faces were all filled with shock.
Baishan Pharmaceutical was a renowned pharmaceutical enterprise in China, one of the three major giants in the national pharmaceutical industry, with considerable strength. Why would they appear here?
Tang Xinwan and Murong Yu’s brows gradually furrowed, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts. As pharmaceutical companies themselves, this matter was likely not simple.
“Mr. Zhou, you’ve come uninvited. May I ask what your intention is?” Murong Yu asked with a cold face.
“Miss Tang, is it? I’m sorry, I’m not here for you this time!”
Zhou Bang replied faintly, then his gaze fell on Chen Zekai and Gong Xin, and he said with a smile:
“Gentlemen, I’ve also received news that your companies are not doing well and have no choice but to resort to this. How about this, let me acquire them, and I will offer twenty percent more!”
Ever since Haitan Pharmaceutical’s branch company had risen strongly in Kyoto, it had already attracted the attention of Baishan Pharmaceutical.
With such rapid growth, it was bound to become a formidable opponent for Baishan Pharmaceutical in the future, so what Baishan Pharmaceutical had to do was to nip potential enemies in the bud.
Recently, upon receiving news that Haitan Pharmaceutical’s branch company was acquiring two pharmaceutical enterprises, they quickly made up their minds to prevent Haitan’s branch company from annexing the two companies and to suppress Haitan’s branch company’s growth rate.
After conducting a series of investigations, Zhou Bang finally arrived at the meeting location.
When Chen Zekai and Gong Xin heard Zhou Bang’s words and saw the contract he presented, after a brief moment of stunned silence, their eyes lit up.
Zhou Bang was right. The two pharmaceutical companies were currently facing bankruptcy and huge debts, which was why they had to sell their companies at a low price.
The price offered by Tang Xinwan was already very generous, and they were very satisfied. Not only could they repay their debts, but there would even be some surplus, allowing them to make a comeback.
But when it came to capital, who would complain about having more?
In the eyes of the two, this was a bidding war, simply put, whoever offered the highest price would get it!
Anyway, they had only reached a verbal agreement with Tang Xinwan and had not yet signed the contract, so it was not a breach of contract, nor was it illegal.
“Ms. Tang, I apologize, but we need to consider this.” Chen Zekai said, clearly tempted.
Gong Xin, standing beside him, went further and said, “Ms. Tang, you can see the current situation. We can’t be foolish and give up huge profits. However, if Ms. Tang can offer a higher price, we will prioritize you.”
“You, you guys!”
Even Murong Yu couldn’t help but look angry.
In her opinion, the two of them were going back on their word. Everything had been discussed, and now they were changing their minds, showing no basic integrity.
What made her even more annoyed was that acquiring the two companies was also one of her performance targets. Coupled with her confident actions, now she couldn’t make the acquisition. Wasn’t this a blatant slap in the face?
“Never mind.”
Seeing Murong Yu’s angry expression, Tang Xinwan pulled on Murong Yu’s sleeve.
She might not possess Murong Yu’s business acumen, but in the business world, she was definitely more seasoned. She had seen such things many times.
Then, Tang Xinwan’s gaze swept towards Zhou Bang, and she said calmly:
“Mr. Zhou, the price we offered is already a high price in the market. Your malicious price inflation is somewhat despicable. Wouldn’t it be bad for Baishan Pharmaceutical’s reputation if this got out?”
“How can this be called malicious price inflation? When it comes to acquisitions, it’s naturally about one’s own strength.”
“I haven’t stopped Tang’s Group from making a bid. If Tang’s Group can’t afford the price, they still say we are unfairly competing. Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“Must all businesses in the world be dominated by Tang’s Group? What a joke!”
Zhou Bang glanced down at Tang Xinwan with deep disdain and sarcasm, and said with a smile.
You!
Tang Xinwan’s anger flared up instantly. It was Baishan Group that had intercepted them halfway, and now the other party was trying to shift the blame. She truly couldn’t swallow this.
She glanced at Chen Zekai and Gong Xin, thought for a moment, and then said, “Mr. Chen, Mr. Gong, our Tang’s Group will offer double the price to acquire your companies! The contract will be signed and effective immediately!”
Tang Xinwan made a firm decision.
This double acquisition price also put considerable pressure on Tang’s Group, but this price was already many times higher than the market price.
She believed that even Baishan Pharmaceutical might not be willing to pay so much.
Baishan Pharmaceutical would certainly not spend more than double the price to acquire these two pharmaceutical companies.
Brilliant!
Murong Yu glanced at Tang Xinwan, her eyes filled with surprise and admiration. She hadn’t expected Tang Xinwan, a mere woman, to have such courage, which refreshed her perception of Tang Xinwan.
“Double?”
On the other side, Zhou Bang’s expression turned grim.
A double acquisition price was also somewhat strenuous for Baishan Pharmaceutical. It wasn’t that they couldn’t come up with the funds, but rather a question of whether it was worth it!
These two medium-sized pharmaceutical companies were like chicken ribs to Baishan Pharmaceutical, existing with or without them.
For Baishan Pharmaceutical to lose funds for nothing to acquire such entities, it would be difficult for him to report to his superiors!
Looking again at Murong Yu and Tang Xinwan, it was clear that the two women had already sensed this, which was why they had directly driven up the price.
How detestable!
Zhou Bang gritted his teeth, his gaze becoming extremely cold, and he said sinisterly:
“Ms. Tang, the waters in Kyoto are deep. Do you ever consider the consequences of opposing Baishan Pharmaceutical? I advise you to be smarter!”
As he spoke.
Zhou Bang clapped his hands, and the door of the private room suddenly opened.
Eight fierce-looking men in black suddenly rushed in from outside and stood behind Zhou Bang.
Seeing the eight men in black, Murong Yu’s expression turned even colder, “What? Unable to win the bid, Baishan Pharmaceutical resorts to these dirty tricks?”
