() The core members of the Hong family gathered around Mrs. Hong, looking down at the share acquisition agreement, and were faintly moved by the numbers on the agreement. Δ』Read Δ book』Δ Cabinet. КanSUge. Laa
Although this price is completely worth mentioning compared to the Hong Group's valuation a month ago, it may be less than 1%.
However, after this bloody month, Hong's Group's sales have plummeted, and its valuation has also shrunk sharply.
Coupled with the imminent claims and lawsuits, Hong Group is indeed teetering on the edge of bankruptcy and liquidation.
Seeing such a share acquisition agreement at this time is like giving timely help, making it difficult for many people to resist the temptation.
"Guo Huining! You cheated! You actually colluded with outsiders to frame our Hong Group! I won't let you succeed!" Mrs. Hong was furious and threw out the share acquisition agreement.
The white A4 papers were scattered in the court, fluttering and falling on the auditorium not far away.
Gu Nianzhi stretched out his hand, took several acquisition agreements, and looked at them curiously.
Guo Huining tilted his head and avoided the sharp A4 papers. His smile did not change and he said: "Mrs. Hong, don't say such old-fashioned words. What era is it now? You still collude with outsiders... Do you think you are still an old man from the feudal era?" Become a king?"
She once envied Mrs. Hong's ability and momentum, and she also imagined that she would become someone like Mrs. Hong in the future.
It's a pity that Mrs. Hong mercilessly kicked her out of the Hong Group where she had worked for many years, shattering her dream.
"I dare not take it seriously." Mrs. Hong's face darkened, "Guo Huining, don't you know what you did in our Hong family? We didn't spare our hands to deal with you, so you really pretended that nothing happened?"
Guo Huining laughed, "Mrs. Hong, I'm waiting for you to deal with me. But before you deal with me, you'd better pay the claim amount first..."
Her eyes were dancing with the joy of victory, and her relatively plain facial features became vivid.
At the mention of this claim amount, these core members of the Hong family suddenly became nervous.
They all began to persuade Mrs. Hong: "... Ancestor, let's sell the shares. At least we can get some money back."
"Look here, as long as we sell 80% of the shares, the other party will bear all our debts!"
"In addition to getting cash, we also hold 20% of the shares!"
"Yes, yes! Ancestor, if you continue to hold on, the only thing you can do is liquidate and go bankrupt..."
"At that time, the shares in our hands were just a few scraps of paper!"
Guo Huining, with his hands behind his back, listened with interest.
These people were doing exactly what she expected.
She had long said that most of the core members of the Hong Group were idiots, except Mrs. Hong, who was surprisingly shrewd.
But Mrs. Hong's shrewdness cannot resist the stupidity of the family as a whole.
The 80-year-old still had to continue working, and she was required to make the final decision on every major decision.
The electric vehicle project this time was so new that Mrs. Hong was really unable to do anything, so she completely delegated power to Guo Huining.
Guo Huining was not without regrets.
She doesn't want this either. She has devoted her youth and blood to the Hong Group, and her feelings for the Hong Group are no worse than those of the Hong family.
But Mrs. Hong just didn't like her and refused to accept her.
Under the gaze of everyone, Mrs. Hong's shriveled body became more and more stooped, as if the pines and cypresses had finally been bent by heavy snow, leaving only an old look and no sense of vitality.
The joy in Guo Huining's heart cannot be described in words.
Just when these people were about to convince Mrs. Hong, Guo Huining slowly took out another agreement, placed it in front of the Hong family, and said with a smile: "Before signing the share acquisition agreement, please sign this exemption agreement. The share acquisition agreement you signed will only take effect if the liability exemption agreement takes effect."
Mrs. Hong was indeed very tired. She even wanted to take this opportunity to sell the Hong Group.
None of her descendants are qualified for such a big job, they are only suitable to sit at home and collect money to rest on their laurels.
Such a big company, when she dies, will soon be reduced to nothing by these unscrupulous descendants...
This is one of the reasons why Mrs. Hong is eager to list overseas.
She wants to take advantage of the overseas listing to re-clean the group's management structure, introduce a professional manager system, and allow members of the Hong family to gradually withdraw from the group's management and become only shareholders who collect money.
She was really frustrated when her family members surrounded her and forced her to sell her shares just now. She wanted to sign and sell.
Guo Huining was cheating on others, and he would settle the accounts with her after she settled the company's affairs.
But now I see Guo Huining throwing out another liability exemption agreement.
Mrs. Hong put on her reading glasses, took the exemption agreement and read it.
After reading only a few lines, Mrs. Hong couldn't help but became furious. She balled up the exemption agreement and threw it at Guo Huining's face. She said angrily: "You want us to give up on holding you accountable?! Do it for you!" Just daydream!—Don’t even think about me signing it!”
"I won't sell it! The worst case scenario is bankruptcy and liquidation!"
Mrs. Hong had a fight with Guo Huining.
Guo Huining dodged to the side, avoiding the ball of exemption agreement thrown by Mrs. Hong.
Gu Nianzhi quickly stood up in the auditorium, grabbed the paper ball, sat down, opened it and started reading.
It turned out that this exemption agreement was actually an agreement in which Guo Huining asked the shareholders of Hong Group to give up their pursuit of liability against her.
In other words, if the Hong family wants to sell their shares, they must sign this liability agreement to ensure that they will not sue Guo Huining for his actions in the Hong Group in the future.
Only when this disclaimer agreement takes effect will the acquisition agreement of Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund take effect.
This way she doesn't have to worry that the Hong Group will prosecute her for commercial espionage.
Gu Nianzhi clicked his tongue twice and said softly to Lu Jin: "... Guo Huining studied law after all, and he protects himself quite well... "
It's a pity that she only protects her own interests and doesn't care about the interests of others.
Guo Huining looked at Mrs. Hong mockingly, like watching a flying insect struggling in a spider web.
She dared to be the chief legal counsel of Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund and personally preside over the acquisition of the Hong Group. How could she stand up without additional protection
This liability agreement is Pacific Rim Private Equity's sincerity to her.
Lu Jin laughed loudly, thinking it was time, so he took out his phone and looked at it.
At this time, the phone dinged, and an email came in.
Lu Jin hurriedly opened his phone and opened his mailbox, and sure enough he saw the email he had been waiting for.
Not caring to read the content of the email carefully, Lu Jian handed the phone to Gu Nianzhi like a treasure, and said with a smile: "Nianzhi, look, this is the first trick!"
Gu Nianzhi was a little confused and looked at Lu Jin's cell phone.
Displayed on the phone is an authorization notice from the State Intellectual Property Office!
The letterhead reads "State Intellectual Property Office of the Chinese Empire" in big letters!
Patent number: 202810295609.1. Document serial number: 2028025825006262.
Patentee: Lu Jin.
Name of the invention: high-power, low-cost battery for electric vehicles.
…
Gu Nianzhi suddenly raised his head, looked at Lu Jin in disbelief, and said in surprise: "... Dad, you applied for a patent?!"
Lu Jin nodded with a smile and said lightly: "... You guys are too backward. My real invention can't be released now, so I modified it, reduced the battery's function by 80%, and then applied for a patent. Don't worry, It’s only three times more powerful than the best electric car battery you have here.”
"And it's a third of the cost."
Gu Nianzhi was so excited that he suddenly opened his arms, hugged Lu Jin, and whispered in his ear: "Dad, you are so amazing!"
It’s great to have such a dad!
What Lu Jin wanted was Gu Nianzhi's reaction.
He happily patted Gu Nianzhi on the back and said, "There is a second trick, do you want to see it?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes!"
As Lu Jin spoke, he forwarded the patent authorization notice from the State Intellectual Property Office to the technical director of the company "raft".
In less than a minute, the technical director of "Raft" impatiently replied to Lu Jian's email.
There is only one sentence on it: "...just make an offer!"
Lu Jin showed the email to Gu Nianzhi and said, "The second trick."
Gu Nianzhi looked at it for a long time before he understood and said: "... This is the company that was infringed by the Hong Group and made high compensation to the Hong Group?!"
Lu Jin nodded, "That's them."
"Do you have any business dealings with them?" Gu Nianzhi asked curiously.
Lu Jin smiled and said: "Of course we have no contact before. I am nothing here, how can they pay attention to me?"
"But it's different now. I have a patent, and they will cry and want to do business with me."
"That's right." Gu Nianzhi nodded thoughtfully, "You really had nothing before, how could they negotiate terms with you..."
"That's right." Lu Jin was not angry at all and said calmly: "You have to have strength to get the attention of others. I didn't bring anything with me. The only thing I brought was my mind and knowledge."
"Now I want to use knowledge to create wealth."
His first pot of gold, of course, came from his inventions.
"How did you think that the first patent was for electric vehicle batteries?" Gu Nianzhi flipped through the follow-up email sent by Raft's technical director.
"I never thought about it, it just happened to happen." Lu Jin shrugged indifferently, "For me, choosing which patent to apply for is the most troublesome."
"Fortunately, Guo Huining reminded me, so be the first to apply for a patent for electric vehicle batteries. You are quite behind the times anyway."
Gu Nianzhi was already used to Lu Jin's speaking style, but he still felt that Lu Jin's speech was unflattering.
"Dad, your tone of being obedient even though you're getting an advantage..." Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded, "To be honest, I quite like it."
Lu Jin was nervous at first and worried that Gu Nianzhi wouldn't like him talking like this, but he became proud later on.
He held his cell phone and replied to the email from the technical director of Raft.
This time the other party took a long time to reply, but it only took ten minutes.
"… make a deal!"
Lu Jin handed the phone to Gu Nianzhi again, curled his lips and said, "Now, I'll do the third trick for you."
Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jian's cell phone. On it was an email from the CEO of Raft.
They agreed to the conditions proposed by Lu Jin and took the initiative to reduce the amount of the claim for out-of-court settlement with the Hong Group, which was limited to one year's back payment of patent fees and 5% interest.
This is a huge difference from the sky-high compensation proposed before, which is like the difference between 100 million and 100,000.
Not far away, on the left front, Mrs. Hong was intimidated by members of the Hong family, Guo Huining and Dou Aiyan for a long time, but she refused to let go.
Just when these people wanted to press her hand to sign the acquisition agreement, someone pushed aside the crowd, came to Mrs. Hong, and said a few words to her.
Mrs. Hong's face, as dry as an orange peel, suddenly lit up, "What did you say?! 'Raft' took the initiative to lower the claim amount?!"
"Yes, our company is willing to reach a settlement with Ms. Hong. This is the amount of our claim. Please take a look."
Mrs. Hong looked down at the legally binding claim amount, her hands trembling with excitement.
Only this claim form stated that only one year's patent fee needs to be paid back, plus 5% interest!
Compared with the previous claim amount, this is like a drop from 100 million to 100,000. For the Hong Group, it is like a good rain after a long drought.
The Hong Group is saved!
Mrs. Hong suddenly laughed loudly.
She waved the claim form in her hand at Guo Huining, laughed and said, "Guo Huining, please wait to receive the lawyer's letter from my Hong Group!"
