Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 1548 Become a Shareholder
The key point is that the German guy is too dark, and he is only willing to give out 100 billion of the 80 billion shares, which is a [-]% discount directly.But Prado has nothing to do, because no one else even has a bid.

With wealth accumulated to his level, he would no longer hesitate to make a choice.Compared with the risks faced, is a mere 20 billion worth of wool?
80 billion is enough to pamper his family for several generations.But once you hang out with Smit, you will be in danger of going bankrupt, so let's bear with it.

Early the next morning, the board meeting was held on time, and Prado stated clearly that he was going to sell his shares.

Smith's face was gloomy: "Mr. Prado, did you just abandon us like this at the most difficult time for the company?"

Prado gave him a disdainful look: "Whatever you are facing is caused by yourself. You are self-willed and self-willed. You don't care about the situation of the company and your family, but I care. If you don't agree, I will sue the court and apply to split the company .”

Prado resorted to a unique trick, which he came up with after a night of sleepless nights. He even consulted a lawyer specifically, and he used it today as a trump card.

Prado's words moved the directors a little. Capital seeks profit, and everyone is here to make money.But this Schmidt is really as strong as Prado said.

But none of them have dared to resist, or no one is willing to resist, because over the years, Smit has created one miracle after another, from a small joint venture company of Philips to an independent listed company , Let everyone's property doubled countless times.

Seeing Prado's insistence, and thinking about this old guy who has been with him through ups and downs all these years, Smit's heart suddenly softened, but he had to make some things clear.

"Prado, I can agree with you to sell the shares, but we must know who you are selling to? And he must also follow some of our conditions, otherwise, I can only accompany you in this lawsuit."

What Smit said was very to the point. Indeed, it would be a real headache if it was exchanged for a major shareholder who didn't understand anything but liked to point fingers.

Prado nodded: "I can't promise you anything at the moment, but I can call him over, sit on our board of directors, and ask you to negotiate for yourself. If he goes too far, I will buy the shares to him."

Smith agreed to Prado's request so happily, which actually moved Prado a bit.Thinking about the years of sharing joys and sorrows together these years, how could Prado have no affection for the company?
"Okay, Mr. Prado, you can take the overall situation into consideration, and I and all the directors are grateful to you, then call him over."

After Smit finished speaking, he discussed with others what requirements should be set for this new shareholder?After a lot of discussion, everyone finally printed out a letter of commitment, which roughly means that the new shareholders are not allowed to sell shares within three years, and are not allowed to make incapable demands on the company's business.

After the discussion here, Luke had already arrived at the company's reception room, so he was invited over.

The first time, the letter of commitment was handed to him.After reading all the terms carefully, Luke nodded and agreed.It's just that he also put forward a condition, that is, he will bring a few people to join the company, not to participate in the operation of the company, but to be R&D personnel.

Everyone agrees to this condition after a little discussion.Although the salaries of R&D personnel are high, compared to their project funds, that is a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, the letter of commitment was successfully signed, and Luke said that he would ask his boss for instructions and hand over 20 billion to the company as a research and development fund.

This is really a surprise. With this 20 billion, at least we can survive this year.Although ASML burns a lot of money, it takes a process to burn the number in billions.

Because of Luke's last point, the share transfer procedure went very smoothly.It took half a day to complete all the procedures, and Luke, as the agent of the majority shareholder, successfully entered the board of directors.

The agreed 20 billion was put on the account of ASML just after they completed the formalities, which made Smith a little excited.It seems that this partner is an open-minded person, and he does not take advantage of anyone at all.

And it is equivalent to transferring the money that should have been given to Prado to the company's account.Although the money is a loan, the interest is not even mentioned. Who wouldn't like such a person?
The people who came to work in ASML were naturally from Junken City, and Ye Yuze personally selected the personnel, first of all, Kevin and Qiu Hope.

This Qiu Hope's IQ is too high, and he has become a technical backbone not long after he came here.And the guy dabbled in optics too.Ye Yuze believes that as long as he can stay in ASML for a few years, then everything is possible.

As for Kevin, everyone is self-evident.Although so many years have passed, he has become more and more innocent on this road.

It's just that he has become restrained compared to the competitive nature when he was young.Now he has become the father of three children, and he looks like a scholar at his age.

The reason why he was sent there was because he found that ASML had very strict protection of various materials. He tried to break through several times but failed to achieve it, so he wanted to learn it himself.

After all, the idiom "It's hard to prevent a house thief" is common all over the world.

The remaining few are college students related to lithography.These few people, Mr. Ni, are going to be trained as the backbone of the Junken City lithography machine company in the future.

Smit was very happy that a big event was settled like this, and then his phone rang again.

I have been entangled with Cha Hongying for a while.The two are like a seesaw, and have been deadlocked over the amount of funds and shares.

With Luke joining, Smit was even less anxious.With 20 billion at the bottom, it is not a big problem to stick to it for half a year, and some time is wasted with Cha Hongying.

Cha Hongying didn't expect that this Smit was so difficult to deal with, and she had been here for a month now.The shares agreed by Schmidt changed from %15 to %20, so he also asked for the amount to be increased to 150 billion.How could this Cha Hongying agree?
After talking with Smith that day, Zha Hongying returned to the hotel exhausted. This Schmidt is really a master in negotiation and consumes too much energy.

Luke came out of the room humming a ditty and walked across to Cha Hongying.The two people who often met each other politely nodded and greeted each other, and did not talk to each other.

Today Luke was happy, and after greeting, he asked, "Beautiful lady, are you Chinese?"

The reason for asking this is because there are some Japanese and Koreans here, and he can't tell them apart.
