20demayo Chapter 808: Okay! I agree!
Chapter 808: Okay! I agree!
Then, Lu Feng sat up straight, his eyes sharp as a torch, and said slowly:
"It's nothing, actually. I just love challenges. Everyone's pessimistic about real estate right now, saying it's a sunset industry, but I wanted to give it a try, so I chose to acquire shares in Hengtai Group. It's just that I have a small number of shares now, so it's not convenient for me to use Hengtai Group to challenge the real estate industry."
When Wang Yanshuo and Hu Yintang, who were sitting nearby, heard this, they immediately understood what Lu Feng wanted.
When they looked at Lu Feng again, they were both shocked by the courage of the young man in front of them.
They already knew that Lu Feng was bold and daring in the business world, but they didn't expect him to be so bold that he would dare to challenge this sunset industry when the real estate industry was in an overall downturn, and he set his sights on their Hengtai Group right away.
But after a brief shock, Hu Yintang and Wang Yanshuo both showed expressions of surprise.
Since Lu Feng dared to put forward the conditions, it meant that he was definitely confident in solving Hengtai Group's current predicament.
Surprised, Wang Yanshuo spoke first, his voice trembling slightly with excitement: "Director Lu, how many shares do you need before you are willing to help? And to what extent can you help?"
Lu Feng smiled confidently, his smile full of confidence, as if everything was under control: "That depends on the sincerity of the two seniors."
"If the two seniors are sincere enough, it won't be a problem to completely resolve the crisis of Hengtai Group."
His words were powerful, and in this relatively quiet tea room, they struck Hu Yintang and Wang Yanshuo's hearts like a heavy hammer.
For a long time, neither of them recovered.
Because what Lu Feng said meant so much.
Even though they had seen many storms before, they were unable to react for a while.
In fact, at the beginning, Hu Yintang did seek help from other shareholders, but other shareholders were not fools. They knew very well that the situation Hengtai was facing now could not be solved by tens of billions of dollars.
So they refused to take action and even wanted to sell their shares.
It was only at Hu Yintang's repeated request that he chose not to sell it immediately.
After a few minutes, the two finally reacted. Hu Yintang secretly winked at Wang Yanshuo, who understood immediately and asked:
"Mr. Lu, if we need you to temporarily postpone the bankruptcy of Hengtai Group and then lend us some funds, how many shares do you want?"
Lu Feng slowly extended three fingers, his expression calm and his tone firm: "At least 30% of the shares, otherwise, no deal."
When these words came out, Hu Yintang and Wang Yanshuo widened their eyes. Although they had prepared themselves mentally for Lu Feng to ask for a high price, they were still shocked by the asking price.
Hu Yintang frowned. This 30% of the shares was not a small amount. According to the market value of Hengtai Group at its peak, this 30% of the shares was worth at least 1.2 trillion Chinese yuan. Even though Hengtai Group was on the verge of bankruptcy, it was still worth 300 billion. This asking price was really too high.
Wang Yanshuo had a bitter look on his face, his face full of helplessness. He said to Lu Feng with a wry smile: "Mr. Lu, isn't your price a bit too high? We simply can't afford it right now." There was a hint of pleading in his voice, and his eyes were full of anxiety and embarrassment.
Lu Feng smiled calmly, resting his chin on his left hand, and explained slowly, "High? Not really. Hengtai Group is on the verge of bankruptcy now, and it's useless for you to hold so many shares. Besides, the 30% of shares I want are not from you, but from the other three shareholders."
When Hu Yintang heard this, he immediately felt relieved and his tense nerves relaxed a little.
However, out of his businessman instinct, in order to gain more benefits for himself, he frowned slightly, looked embarrassed, and pretended to be very embarrassed.
Lu Feng seemed to see through Hu Yintang's thoughts, chuckled, and continued:
"Mr. Hu, there are no outsiders here, so you don't have to do this. I know you really want to drive the other shareholders away. After all, they can't share the hardship."
"If you agree to my proposal, I can ask all the major banks to stop demanding payment, and I will personally donate 20 billion yuan to maintain the operation of Hengtai Group."
When Hu Yintang and Wang Yanshuo heard this, their breathing immediately became rapid.
These two conditions are like a blessing from heaven for them who are now stuck in the quagmire and on the verge of despair.
But after the surprise, Hu Yintang's brows were twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. His eyes lingered on the wall of the tea room for a long time, as if he was looking for the answer there.
The conditions offered by Lu Feng were very tempting, but the price he had to pay was also extremely high.
But now it seemed that this was the only way before him. After a long while, Hu Yintang gritted his teeth, a look of determination emerged on his face:
"Okay, Mr. Lu! I'll help you acquire the shares of the other three shareholders. Anyway, their minds are already wandering to other things and they don't care about Hengtai's life or death at all."
His voice trembled slightly with excitement. It was the relief after taking a gamble, and also the expectation of a turnaround.
A hint of approval flashed across Lu Feng's eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he clapped his hands lightly, the applause ringing in the tea room:
"Mr. Hu, you are indeed a veteran in the business world. Your decisiveness is truly admirable! With your courage, Hengtai will have no worries about its future. Don't worry, as long as the 30% of shares are successfully transferred to my name, the 20 billion yuan I promised will be deposited in minutes."
"Before that, I will use my connections and resources to help Hengtai Group to deal with the situation. I will first ease the pressure on the bank to collect the debt, and I will also try to reduce the interest as much as possible."
Lu Feng's words were powerful, and every word was like a reassurance, firmly landing in the hearts of Hu Yintang and Wang Yanshuo.
Hu Yintang's eyes instantly moistened, his red eyes filled with emotion and relief, his voice choked with sobs that were difficult to conceal: "Director Lu, I will never forget your kindness. If you need me in the future, please don't hesitate to ask for my help."
Wang Yanshuo's face flushed with excitement. He stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply to Lu Feng: "Director Lu, your actions have given us hope for Hengtai."
"From now on, as long as it's something you ask us to do, we will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"Hahaha, you two are too polite. My help to you is not free. It's just an exchange of interests."
"But to be honest, I still really want to be friends with you two."
