Ten days later, in the conference room of the old Huangpu office building.
A few shareholders were there, and they didn't look too good.
A few days ago, the factory's food hygiene problems were exposed, causing a huge uproar on the Internet. All the news media and social fishing vessels criticized them one after another. How could they be happy?
Years of losses, coupled with this serious reputation crisis, made the shareholders mentally and physically exhausted and wanted to sell the old Huangpu.
However, it was easier said than done to find a successor at this time.
Rich and powerful big food companies didn't dare to accept it. It was hard to say if it could bring the old Huangpu back to life. More importantly, it was very likely that it would affect their original brand image.
He didn't dare to accept it personally. After all, Huangpu had been in decline and had been operating poorly for a long time. It wasn't easy to turn losses into profits, not to mention the scandal that had become a trending topic.
As a result, the shareholders could only watch as the stock prices fell every day. The goods in the stores could not be sold, and the financial statements submitted made people want to tear them into pieces immediately.
Fortunately, after waiting for so long, there was finally someone who was interested. Therefore, the shareholders had gathered in the company's meeting room early, waiting for the arrival of this savior.
As the appointed time approached, three figures finally appeared at the door of the conference room.
All the shareholders were in high spirits!
He was here!
In addition to the receptionist, there was a man and a woman behind her. They were both very young and looked to be in their early twenties. The man was handsome and the woman was pretty.
The shareholders didn't look down on him because of his young age. They stood up one after another, and their solemn faces broke into smiles."Boss Xia!"
They had inquired about the background of this potential buyer. He was the boss of a food company in Shanghai called Vientiane Jiarun. It had just been established for a month, so logically speaking, he should not have much strength.
However, this Boss Xia's background was not to be underestimated. He was the direct descendant of the famous Xia family in the capital.
Even those who had no idea about the wealthy families would often see news about this family from various media outlets.
It seems that Boss Xia is representing the Xia family in Beijing to discuss the acquisition. With the Xia family's wealth, it won't be a problem for them to take over Huangpu. There's hope for us to make a move!
Actually, if they knew Xia Ze's reputation in Shanghai, they might think differently. However, these shareholders had yet to become one of the top in Shanghai, so none of them knew Xia Ze.
"Hello, bosses. I'm Xia Ze from Wanxiang Jiarun Food!”
"Yang Qian, our company's general manager!”
Xia Ze briefly introduced himself and Yang Bei.
"Boss Xia and President Yang are really young and promising!”
The shareholders complimented him, and then the big shareholder of Huangpu asked tentatively,""I heard that Boss Xia wants to buy the old Huangpu?”
"Yes!"
"Then please name your price, Boss Xia!"
"500 million!"
Xia Ze's words caused the shareholders 'expressions to change. This was far from the purchase price they had expected.
This Boss Xia was too ruthless!
The big shareholder coughed dryly." Boss Xia, the market value of Huangpu is estimated to be more than one billion!"”
" That's right," Xia Ze said calmly." But that was before. All of you should know how Huangpu is doing!"”
"Boss Xia, even so, it can't be that low!”Ergu couldn't help but interject.
"Just based on our old Huangpu and its reputation, it won't be a problem to sell it for one billion!”
"That's right, that's right. Boss Xia, if you really intend to buy it, then please show some sincerity. Otherwise, we can't continue the negotiation!”
“……”
All the shareholders voiced their opinions.
After they finished speaking, Xia Ze spoke again,""As for the explanation of the purchase price, our company's President Yang will explain it in detail!”
He planned to nurture Yang Qian well and let her transform into the future queen of the business world. Naturally, he had to let her participate in some important matters. The acquisition of the old Huangpu was a very good opportunity.
Everyone's eyes turned to Yang Qian.
This was the first time she was facing such a big scene, and the other party was the old Huangpu, which had a valuation of nearly five billion. Yang Qian was surprisingly not nervous at all, but a little excited.
However, she still appeared very calm on the surface.
" I believe that the market value is just an estimated number. The true value of a company has to be determined based on the actual situation. As far as I know, the development of the old Huangpu Group has not been smooth since the New Era. Not only has its valuation continued to fall, but it has also been losing money in recent years.”
" It is undeniable that this time-honored brand used to have considerable brand value. However, the crisis of reputation this time is fatal. To put it bluntly, the name Old Huangpu has even become the target of everyone's hatred!”
"Why is it that after such a long time, not a single big company is willing to discuss the acquisition with your company? Even the relevant person-in-charge deliberately drew a clear line with you and avoided you when they mentioned this in the interview. They are afraid that the old Huangpu will affect their image! How much brand value did the bosses think the old Huangpu had?”
Yang Bei spoke with fervor and assurance. Her words were like blood, hitting the sore spot and silencing the shareholders.
"The bosses should be very clear about the current situation of the Mountain Deer Milk Powder, right?”
" Before that, who would have thought that such a well-known private enterprise would fall into negative assets in such a short time because of a fatal credit crisis? Until now, no big company is willing to take over. It is a very obvious precedent!”
The 2008 Shanlu milk powder incident shocked the entire country and directly destroyed this large milk powder company.
Since then, netizens began to pay attention to food hygiene issues and hated them. To some extent, the development of the Huangpu incident was also influenced by the Shanlu milk powder incident.
"Director Yang, there is indeed a problem with the food hygiene and safety of our old Huangpu, but it is far from as serious as Mountain Deer!”
Some shareholders were not convinced. There was no doubt that something had happened to Huangpu, but the severity of the situation was still different.
Yang Qian nodded slightly.
"I agree with you on this point. The old Huangpu's food hygiene and safety may be due to negligence in management, but the netizens don't think so. They only believe the media reports they see. Many people have already compared the old Huangpu to Shanlu.”
" Besides, don't forget that before the Shanlu incident, at least other companies were operating well and developing vigorously. This was better than the current situation of Huangpu!”
The shareholders of Huangpu were all deflated. What Yang Bei said was the truth, and what they were most worried about was becoming the next Shanlu!
"In addition, your company has been boycotted by consumers, causing the products to be piled up in the warehouse, and the employees 'salaries still have to be paid as usual. This is a terrible mess that can make any recipient flinch!”
"Our boss offered a purchase price of 400 million yuan, which is already very reasonable. I dare say that it will be difficult for you to find a second person who is willing to take over!”
