806: Chapter 807: Mandatory Acquisition 806: Chapter 807: Mandatory Acquisition Zhu Shaoneng left with his people.

The head of security was quickly taken to the hospital for treatment.

The faces of the people from Tianxing Media did not look good.

Having just acquired Blue Sea Media and becoming the media tycoon of Blue Sea, yet before they could even start to make money, someone was trying to force a hostile takeover?

What was the logic in that?

“We must not compromise!”

Zhang Zhao said.

“That’s right, this bunch is too despicable.

They just pick up bargains.

The money they offer is definitely very little, and there are already examples of this.

Several enterprises in Blue Sea were offered prices that were not even one-tenth of their market value.

It’s basically daylight robbery.”

Qiao Wang added.

“Many of those enterprises were acquired by the Zhu Family Clan, and I guess it will be the same with us.

Our current market value is fifty billion, but I bet they won’t offer more than five billion if they go through with the acquisition,”

Duan Bin also sighed, what a mess.

“But we all understand the consequences of not accepting the acquisition, don’t we?

I’ve heard that several enterprises have had bad luck.

Their bosses got beaten up so badly they couldn’t take care of themselves, and in the end, still got acquired for an even lower price,”

a senior executive said with a bitter smile.

“Moreover, there’s Crow Brother.

You all know how notorious Crow Brother is.

If he gets involved, we probably won’t get a single cent and still lose our company.”

“Alright, stop arguing.

Tianxing Media isn’t ours to decide on.

Let’s ask the boss what to do,”

Duan Bin finally sighed.

He was genuinely afraid.

But this matter was beyond his control.

“Director Duan, please try to persuade the boss to give up.

Otherwise, we’ll have to resign.

We don’t want to die here,”

one of the senior executives said.

Many of the senior executives had come over from the Blue Sea Group.

Their loyalty to Tianxing Media was nowhere near that of Duan Bin’s, let alone Qiao Wang’s or Zhang Zhao’s.

Duan Bin remained silent, and after work, he contacted Xiao Chen.

In a private room at the Venus Hotel.

Duan Bin, Qiao Wang, and Zhang Zhao were all present, along with Ghost Blade and Jun Moxie.

After Duan Bin explained the situation, Xiao Chen sneered, “The Zhu Family is nothing but a second-rate clan in Xiongcheng City, not even first-rate.

It’s only because they cling to the powerful Li Family Clan of Xiongcheng City that they are so arrogant.

So, I’ll meet with this Young Master Zhu myself tomorrow.

Furthermore, Duan Bin, those who propose resigning at a critical moment for the company should just be allowed to resign.

If I decide to solve the problem, first of all, don’t mention it; whoever wants to resign, let them resign, and such people should never be employed again in the future.”

“Boss, isn’t this a bit too much?

They’re just scared,”

Duan Bin said with a wry smile.

“Too much?”

Xiao Chen laughed, “My company treats them like family.

No matter what happens, I will always help out.

However, I also need the people in the company to stand with it in times of trouble, not to desert at the first sign of conflict.

On the battlefield, if a general proposes surrender before the fight has even begun, it’s a severe disruption to morale and merits death.

I’ve been very generous already by just telling them to get lost.

Do you think I’ve done too much?”

“No.”

Duan Bin had actually thought about backing out before, but upon seeing Xiao Chen, he suddenly understood something.

Some people can give you huge benefits, but if you dare betray them, the consequences will be very severe.

“Another thing, Mo Xie, go handle that Mr.

Zui,”

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Dare to attack our security guard, I don’t care what kind of ‘Mister’ he is, he has to die!”

“Understood.”

Jun Moxie smiled, then got up and left.

Duan Bin trembled again, he had personally witnessed how terrifying Mr.

Zui was, and yet Xiao Chen didn’t regard him at all.

To say he’d sort it out was really too domineering.

Half an hour later.

Jun Moxie returned.

“So boring.”

He lit a cigarette and said, “Mr.

Zui, just a little bastard, an entry-level grandmaster at best.

I made him eat some dung water.”

Duan Bin was shocked once again.

Grandmaster!

Martial Arts Grandmaster!

To be called a little bastard by Jun Moxie, wasn’t that a bit too exaggerated?

Who are these people?

They were incredible to the extreme.

Zhu Shaoneng was resting at his residence when suddenly the police reported, “Mr.

Zui’s father drowned in a latrine.”

At that moment, Zhu Shaoneng was completely dumbfounded when he heard the news.

How could it be possible, such a skilled man, drowned just like that in a daze?

Ghost, who would believe it.

But that was the conclusion the police came to.

“Mr.

Zhu, this person is just unlucky, even drinking cold water would get stuck between their teeth, just accept your fate and move on.”

Zhu Shaoneng was completely speechless.

Also, he completely transferred his hatred onto Tianxing Media.

One day later.

The agreed day had come, and he had originally planned to send someone over to sign the contract and be done with it.

But Zhu Shaoneng went in person.

Even without Mr.

Zui, Zhu Shaoneng still had a bunch of tough subordinates.

Still, he made the people from Tianxing Media tremble with fear.

“President Duan, have you spoken to your boss?

What’s the consideration like?”

Zhu Shaoneng asked with a smile.

“I don’t know, how much is Young Master Zhu prepared to pay to acquire Tianxing Media?”

Duan Bin asked with a smile.

Today, he felt more confident than ever before.

Because he was no longer afraid.

Zhu Shaoneng chuckled and said, “Good to hear you’ve understood.

I won’t let you suffer a loss, how about five hundred million?”

“Five hundred million US dollars or British pounds?”

Duan Bin asked again.

“Are you stupid, of course it’s five hundred million RMB.”

Zhu Shaoneng said.

Upon hearing this, everyone inwardly groaned.

It was even more outrageous than the rumors.

Tianxing Media, with a market value of fifty billion, was only offered five billion, this was practically highway robbery.

But Duan Bin didn’t get angry, because he had expected this, he just smiled and said, “Young Master Zhu, anyone with a normal brain wouldn’t make such an offer.

We just spent thirty billion to acquire Blue Sea Corporation.

And here you are, thinking of buying us for just five billion, this joke is a bit too big, isn’t it?”

“A joke?

No, no, no, this is no joke!”

Duan Bin shook his head and said, “Let me do the math for you.

Your company has over a hundred mid-to-senior level staff, isn’t each of their heads worth a hundred million?

Add them all up and that’s tens of billions.

Plus, without Tianxing Media, you won’t have to worry about being targeted anymore.

That’s worth tens of billions right there.

On top of that, we need to fire those useless employees, which will also cost tens of billions, not forgetting the institutions we need to dismantle.

In the end, all of this will cost over thirty billion.

And we haven’t even talked about preparing to deal with the attention and attacks from other enterprises and family clans, which will also cost a lot of money.

Altogether, doesn’t that add up to over fifty billion?”

“According to Young Master Zhu’s calculations, does it mean you want to acquire us and still have us pay you for it?”

Duan Bin’s smile grew wider.

“No need to pay us, otherwise let’s forget about the five billion altogether.”

Zhu Shaoneng had completely failed to detect the sarcasm and mockery in Duan Bin’s words, or perhaps, he detected it but didn’t care in the least.
