Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Brother Xiao Ma and the others were in high spirits during the happy event. They didn't even eat lunch and just discussed the afternoon's events.

In the end, they decided that as long as the Polar Bear Company could offer better conditions than the South African MIH Company, they would agree to the Polar Bear deal.

After all, comparing the two companies, Polar Bear is stronger.

This is also very good for Penguin.

Because in this case, Polar Bear Company will not easily liquidate its shares, and is more inclined to become a cornerstone investor of Penguin!

In the future, when Penguin needs financing for expansion, it may not need to look for investment companies everywhere. Polar Bear will continue to provide strong financial support!

Of course, "better conditions" are also required.

First, Brother Ma hopes that Polar Bear will give a higher valuation!

Although South Africa's MIH ostensibly gave Penguin a valuation of US$60 million, when they actually invested, they did not base it on this valuation.

They are only willing to pay 14 million U.S. dollars to purchase 35% of the shares, and they will have priority to acquire the 25% shares of Xiangjiang Little Superman.

Xiao Ma and other company founders can only sell 10% of their shares in total.

The other six million US dollars are used to finance stock expansion, which requires Xiao Ma and the others to contribute equally according to their shareholding ratio...

If you think about it this way, everyone may have to spit out the money they just got!

Even the shares will be diluted a lot.

According to South Africa's MIH, the global Internet is now experiencing a cold winter, and it is impossible to invest entirely based on valuation. There must be a certain degree of "discount."

Of course, if it hadn't been for Polar Bear Investment, the investment plan given by MIH would have far exceeded Xiao Ma's expectations!

Even if they only pay $6 million and take 50% of the company's shares, they are willing...

Second, Xiao Ma hopes that polar bears can be more kind.

Don't be like MIH in South Africa, who went round and round, and ended up giving away a lot of shares but not getting much cash.

Everyone has been starting a business for a few years, and to be honest, we haven’t seen much money yet. Who doesn’t want to get millions of dollars to improve his life...

After the discussion, everyone unanimously agreed with Xiao Ma's opinion.

When you decide to negotiate in the afternoon, just follow this!

……………………

The time soon came to two o'clock in the afternoon.

Vice President Zhang's cell phone rang. He took a look and said with joy, "It's coming, it's coming! It's that Milner calling."

"Hurry up and pick it up." Brother Ma also said nervously.

After answering the phone, Vice President Zhang said a few words before hanging up the phone and reported to everyone: "The polar bear people will be downstairs soon, and their boss is here!"

"Let's go downstairs to greet the distinguished guests." Brother Ma said hurriedly.

Everyone got up, walked out of the conference room together, and went to the office building, preparing to welcome the polar bear people.

The weather in Pengcheng at the end of August was extremely hot.

After standing at the door of the building for a few minutes, everyone was sweating profusely, but they couldn't care less about it now.

Watching eagerly, Brother Ma's eyes suddenly lit up and reminded everyone: "They should be here, everyone, please be energetic!"

I saw two old-fashioned black Mercedes-Benz cars driving over one after the other.

Sure enough, the two cars stopped in front of the building. With the sound of the car doors opening and closing, the bald Milner and a few people got out of the car.

Brother Ma immediately saw the young man who was surrounded by Milner and others like stars holding the moon!

He was a little dumbfounded.

Because the young man not only looked young, but he was not the old man he imagined.

Turns out to be a black-haired, black-eyed... Chinese?

While he was still in a daze, Milner quickly stepped forward and introduced them: "Mr. Ma, Mr. Zhang, this is Mr. Mikhail, the president of our Polar Bear Investment. Oh, speaking of which, he is also Chinese-Russian. As for me, I can speak Chinese, which will make it easier for everyone to communicate in the future, haha."

Wang Ye naturally saw Brother Ma. Although Brother Ma was still "young" now, Brother Ma, who had fair skin, was polite, and wore glasses, did not look much different from what he would look like more than ten years later.

He smiled and greeted in Mandarin: "Mr. Ma, nice to meet you."

Brother Ma was startled, came back to his senses, and said with a smile on his face: "Hello, Mr. Mikhail, welcome. I didn't expect that you speak Chinese so well."

Everyone exchanged pleasantries, but it was too hot outside and it was not the right place to talk.

Under the leadership of Xiao Ma, everyone walked into the office building.

…………

Through this office building, we can also see that the current situation of Penguin Company is indeed not very good.

The old and dilapidated office building was a mixed bag, with various small workers moving goods coming and going. There were no regular passenger elevators, only two huge freight elevators, which made an abnormal "creak" sound when running...

Obviously, Brother Xiao Ma also felt a little embarrassed, so he smiled and said: "The company plans to move after financing, so let's deal with it for a while."

Wang Ye didn't pay attention and said casually: "Many great companies started in garages, such as Microsoft and Apple. I believe that when Penguin Company looks back on its current predicament in the future, it will be a good story. "

Hearing these words made Brother Ma very happy!

Obviously, this shows that Mr. Mikhail is very optimistic about Penguin, and even compares Penguin with Microsoft and Apple!

After arriving in the large conference room, everyone sat down separately.

The large conference table made up of several flat tables was also very crude.

The founders of Penguin Company and representatives of Polar Bear Company sat on both sides of the large conference table.

Brother Ma first expressed his welcome on behalf of Penguin Company, and then got down to business.

He said sternly: "There is nothing to hide about Penguin's current situation. It is indeed difficult. However, our company is currently the number one Internet instant messaging software in mainland China. Whether it is the number of users or share, it is undisputed. The first place!

It is based on this factor that the South African MIH company has given a good investment plan.

Originally, we had almost reached an agreement, but as a result, Polar Bear Company also started to contact us.

I hope that both of us can be honest and sincere today.

Try to reach a solution that is satisfactory to both parties as soon as possible.

Otherwise, we may have to accept MIH's quotation. "

What he said was reasonable and well-founded, but soft yet hard at the same time!

That means, don’t try to take advantage of me!

Although life is difficult for us penguins, the future is still bright, otherwise you wouldn't come here to invest eagerly.

Isn’t it the future of penguins that I’m interested in...
