Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 381

Lin Baicheng chatted with Mark Raymond for more than an hour, and spent most of the time talking about the development of the TV company.Lin Baicheng talked about the company's positioning and general direction strategy, while Mark Raymond talked about how to expand and grow the company.

Of course, the two of them didn't talk about business all the time, and sometimes they talked about things that had nothing to do with the company.

Although Mark Raymond said that he would consider it for two days, it can be seen that Mark Raymond is still inclined to join Lin Baicheng's command, but this is not a trivial matter after all, Mark Raymond has to go back and think carefully .

When Mark Raymond left, Wade Thomas didn't leave with him.

After Lin Baicheng sent Mark Raymond back, the two chatted about the Teval Electric Company.

Wade Thomas said: "Alan, the employee representatives are very dissatisfied with your request. They have been making trouble for the past two days, and even organized employee parades, not allowing you to acquire the company."

"If I'm tough, won't the acquisition go ahead?"

If possible, Lin Baicheng still hopes to acquire Teval Electric Appliance Company, after all, this electrical appliance company has enough types of technologies.

Wade Thomas shook his head: "Alan, politicians will never fight against votes, unless the employees make a compromise decision."

"If that's the case, forget it and stop the acquisition."

Lin Baicheng would never leave the house and accept robbery, so he could only choose to stop the acquisition.

Wade Thomas heard the words and said: "Alan, I will express your intention to withdraw from the acquisition. If the state government and Tval Electric Company cannot make the employees make concessions, then stop the acquisition. Once the employees accept the fact that the salary remains unchanged , then the acquisition continues, how?"

Lin Baicheng nodded, and asked: "I want to know one thing, that is, will there be any hidden dangers left. The employees agreed temporarily, but then they will make trouble under the leadership of the guild or some people?"

Wade Thomas couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Alan, everyone has to eat. Unless you lowered the treatment of employees after you acquired the company, they who have chosen to accept the facts are unlikely to make trouble again. Even if there is trouble Yes, there are only a small number of people, you can completely fire them, and then recruit people."

"Okay then, try again and tell me the result next Monday."

Hearing what Wade Thomas said, Lin Baicheng nodded in agreement.

"Alan, if the acquisition is not successful this time, it is because we were not prepared and let the guild take advantage of the loopholes, so we will continue to acquire electrical companies or home appliance technologies for you. The cost will be calculated according to the normal acquisition. This acquisition If it doesn’t work, there will be no extra charge.”

Although a lot of resources and funds were used in Teval Electric Appliance Company, Lin Baicheng entrusted Goldman Sachs to make a large number of acquisitions, and Lin Baicheng also approached Goldman Sachs for a large amount of loan financing. Satisfied, so that Lin Baicheng will continue to cooperate with Goldman Sachs in the future, and Goldman Sachs can fully afford a little loss.

"Since you say that, Thomas, then I'm not going to be polite."

Lin Baicheng nodded with a smile and was not polite.He entrusted Goldman Sachs to make the acquisition, but this happened. To be honest, he was not happy in his heart. After all, if the acquisition was unsuccessful, it would be a waste of his time. It would be good if he didn't find another company to entrust the acquisition.

"It should be said that Alan, you didn't blame us, it's not bad."

Since Lin Baicheng entrusted Goldman Sachs to make the acquisition, the problem in the middle is naturally that Goldman Sachs did not do a good job in the relevant work. Although it was an accident, there are some things that only look at the result and not the process.With Lin Baicheng's understanding, Wade Thomas felt relieved.

Lin Baicheng smiled when he heard this, and stopped talking about it.Goldman Sachs has a lot of power in the United States. If Lin Baicheng wants to make money in the United States, he must have a partner, and Goldman Sachs is a good partner. Of course, Lin Baicheng has no reason to turn his face because of such a trivial matter.

After the two chatted for a while, Lin Baicheng sent Wade Thomas away.

The next day, Lin Baicheng went to Marvel Comics again.

Today, Lin Baicheng is the boss of Marvel Comics, he serves as the chairman of the company, and Stan Lee serves as the chief executive officer, the so-called CEO. He still manages the company as before, nothing more than a change in title .

Lin Baicheng, who had just acquired the company, asked Stan Lee and other management to take him around the company, even the printing factory that prints comics.This printing factory is owned by Marvel, and it was precisely because of the establishment of this printing factory that Marvel borrowed a large sum of money.

With its own printing factory, comics companies can not only save costs by printing comics, but also avoid being manipulated.Let other people's factories print, if the other party wants to mess with you, just a fault can stop the factory for a few days, and you can't do anything about it, because the shutdown is not intentional because of a fault.

On the same day, Lin Baicheng walked the entire Marvel company up and down to gain a clearer understanding of the company, and at the same time let the company's employees know who the new boss is and who they are working for.

The following Sunday, Lin Baicheng went back to Los Angeles.

And in the afternoon of the same day, Wade Thomas contacted Lin Baicheng, saying that the Teval Electric Company still hadn't reached an agreement in the end, and most employees chose to trust the guild, and the employee representatives negotiated on their behalf to strive for better salaries and benefits.

Faced with this result, Lin Baicheng of course chose not to talk about it, and asked Wade Thomas to stop the acquisition.

Wade Thomas expressed his understanding, and then said that this acquisition negotiation was not fruitless, at least he got to know the controlling shareholders of Tval Electric Company, and Goldman Sachs would try to see if it could acquire relevant technologies from Tval Electric Company.This time it only involves the acquisition of technology and does not involve any factories, so naturally it has nothing to do with the employees.

It doesn't matter who's technology can be acquired, as long as the technology is not too far behind, it is best to have first-class technology and patents, and the products produced can be put on the market immediately.It is one thing to sell or not, but it is another matter if the quality of the product is too poor to compare with other companies' products.

Lin Baicheng's requirements are not high, and he does not require better quality than other electrical appliance companies. As long as the quality of the products produced is not inferior to other electrical appliance companies, it is enough, so that at least it can compete fairly.

Because it is already on the 14th, Lin Baicheng will leave the United States in a day or two. Fortunately, the affairs in the United States are almost handled for the time being, and his departure will not affect the operation of various companies.
