2866 [Besieging Wei and Rescue Zhao]
Faced with the unfavorable acquisition, Xia Tian was very dissatisfied with Ye Zhiming's performance.
"Old Ye, what did you do? You have made a very confident acquisition case, but it was a long way from time to time. Can you still accomplish this?" Xia Tian scolded Ye Zhiming.
Ye Zhiming was also deeply frightened by Xia Tian's scolding.
In summer, he usually doesn’t get angry easily, but as long as he gets angry, his life will be difficult.
At the least, the annual bonus will be deducted, and at the worst, the transfer will be removed from the position and you will be able to get it to the end. This is all a matter of certainty.
"Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, I guess it was wrong. I originally wanted to save some money for the company, so I wanted to drag the Alaber Consortium, but I didn't expect that the PPR Group and LVMH Group would come out halfway. It was all my responsibility. It was because I didn't handle it well. I apologize to you." Ye Zhiming admitted his mistake and apologized repeatedly.
He knew that Xia Tian likes people the most is those who are brave enough to take responsibility and take responsibility. On the contrary, they hate those who take credit when they see the credit and give in when they see difficulties. They have no sense of responsibility or sense of responsibility. Therefore, he did not dare to excuse himself too much and took the responsibility first.
"You are really greedy for small gains and suffer great losses. You lose watermelon and pick up sesame seeds. How much money can you save when you drag it to a few days? Now the two companies are scrambling us to raise the price higher than before. We have to spend nearly half of the money to buy it. You really know how to save money for me." Xia Tian taught him a lesson.
The Alaber Consortium originally offered Gucci a price of 4.2 billion euros. Although the price was a bit high, it was not too outrageous. I bought it at that time and it was a profit.
But now, the three companies are competing for Gucci together. In order to grab it, the three companies have all raised the acquisition price. At present, the price has risen to 5.8 billion euros, more than one billion more than before.
Such a price is already very outrageous. Even if the acquisition is successful, it will take a long time to make a profit, which is not very cost-effective. But I just quit halfway, but I was unwilling to accept it.
After all, it is rare to see big names like Gucci in the luxury goods industry, so you can buy one less. If you miss it this time, it will be difficult to buy it next time.
"Yes, Mr. Xia, it's all my fault. I deserve to die. I'm guilty. You can punish me anyway." Ye Zhiming admitted his mistake frequently.
"Okay, let's talk about these things." Xia Tian waved his hand.
Although Ye Zhiming was not good at doing things this time, he was still a talented person in general. Thanks to his management, Tianxia Clothing has developed so vigorously now. It would be a bit unkind to punish him if he had to fail.
Besides, he and Ye Yuqing have such a relationship after all, and Ye Zhiming is his cheap brother-in-law, so it is not good to be too cruel and ruthless.
"You are wrong about this matter, but it was not intentional, so I won't punish you severely. But I still have to punish you. The bonus this year will be reduced by half." Xia Tian said immediately.
"Yes, thank you Mr. Xia, I accept the punishment!" Ye Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
The result of deducting half of the bonus was already good for him. As long as he was not cheated, it would not be easy to make money in the future.
"It's a trivial matter to punish you, the key is what should we do now." Xia Tian looked at Ye Zhiming and said, "If we continue to raise prices with them, even if the acquisition is successful, the price will be very high. If we stop acquiring, then the efforts over the past six months will be in vain. What do you think?"
"Mr. Xia, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's right." Ye Zhiming hesitated.
"Let's talk first." Xia Tian nodded.
"As far as I know, both PPR Group and LVMH Group are listed companies, and the holdings of the major shareholders are less than half. If we surrounded Wei and saved Zhao and acquired the shares of PPR Group and LVMH Group, they would definitely not dare to continue to waste time with us in Gucci's acquisition." Ye Zhiming explained, "But this method uses more funds."
"Bound Wei and save Zhao?! Well, this method is good, you can use this method." Xia Tian nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about funds. I will help you solve it, but this battle must be fought beautifully."
"Yes, Mr. Xia." Ye Zhiming nodded.
"Okay, if you have nothing to do, just go back and hurry up and make arrangements." Xia Tian ordered.
...
"Yes, Mr. Xia, there is one more thing I want to tell you." Ye Zhiming smiled a little restrainedly.
"What's the matter? Tell me." Xia Tian couldn't help but say curiously when he saw his strange expression.
"That's right, Mr. Xia, my sister Yuqing is not young anymore, she is already thirty-two years old this year. Although she has your care, she has no worries about food and clothing in this life. But it's so lonely to be with her company. So she wants to have a baby while she is still in good health now, you see..." Ye Zhiming said immediately.
Xia Tian was stunned and nodded immediately, "It is understandable that she has this idea. Let her come to me in two days."
"Yes, Mr. Xia." Ye Zhiming was delighted when he saw Xia Tian nodding.
Although his sister Ye Yuqing has a close relationship with Xia Tian, she has no formal relationship after all, so his brother-in-law is wrong and has no privilege at all. Once Xia Tian is not satisfied, he can be replaced at any time.
In comparison, once Ye Yuqing is pregnant, things will be very different. With Xia Tian’s current wealth, if Ye Yuqing gives birth to a child, he will definitely be able to get a lot of money in the future. The so-called mother is precious by her son, how can he, the eldest brother, not benefit from it?
Xia Tian agreed to it, but also had his own considerations.
His relationship with Ye Yuqing is actually not deep, and the relationship between them is based on material things.
It can be said that if Xia Tian had no money, she would definitely not be able to attract the rich girl Ye Yuqing. Similarly, if Ye Yuqing was not beautiful and sexual enough, she would not be able to catch the eyes of Xia Tian at all.
However, the so-called one-day couple has a hundred days of kindness, not to mention that after getting along for so many years, I finally have some feelings.
Xia Tian doesn’t want to see Ye Yuqing die alone. Even if the whole house is full of money, what’s the use? So since Ye Yuqing wants to have a baby, let her give birth. Ye Yuqing is actually quite smart and beautiful. She must have a good baby and will not waste his genes.
But then again, even if Ye Yuqing gave birth to a child, Xia Tian didn't want him to recognize his ancestors, because this would affect the stability of the Xia family in the future.
In the past, wealthy families have caused internal struggles caused by property disputes, which will make the family uneasy. For example, the Gong family's property dispute case (Gong Ruxin and her father-in-law compete for family property), the He family's property dispute case (He Hong's wife and concubines compete for property), the Lin family's property dispute case (Lin Boxin's property dispute for property four houses), etc.
