Chapter 223: Huge Concession!
When they talked about shares, the wine table became quiet for a while.
Wu Yurong, who was sitting next to Wu Chen, had a blush. She had an average drinking capacity. In fact, she didn’t drink much, but she already felt drunk.
The smile on her face became much more charming.
Wu Yurong held the goblet in her hand, pursed her lips and glanced at Wu Chen.
The indescribable charm was in her eyes.
In fact, normally speaking, how to divide the shares should be determined after she and Gu Ruibo personally discussed it in detail and communicated many times.
But if she, Wu Yurong, talked to Gu Ruibo in person…
Although Wu Yurong could be on an equal footing with Gu Ruibo, for this matter alone, Gu Ruibo must have contributed more.
Because when “grabbing money”, he had to bear the pressure of all parties. It would be him, Gu Ruibo, and the Gu family behind him bearing the brunt.
The one who would “resist the thunder” must be Gu Ruibo!
Therefore, Wu Yurong knew very well that if she only talked to Gu Ruibo, she would only be able to get the small part, and the big part must be Gu Ruibo’s. It would be impossible to even split it 50-50!
But with Wu Chen, it should be… 50-50, right?
Wu Yurong was looking forward to it.
As long as she could make a 50-50 split with Gu Ruibo and things went smoothly, the money she could get… Although it was only a small piece of the big cake of the Ding family, it must be at least billions of assets!
This referred to what was substantially controlled and could be directly calculated into the net worth. If we also include the situation of controlling the entire company by holding part of the equity, then the total assets controlled in the end should be tens of billions.
This was even comparable to the entire Senlan Clothing Group that had been operating for decades!
It wouldn’t take more than a year at most, and if everything went well, they could get it!
Wu Yurong was really looking forward to it. She was holding the goblet, and her index finger subconsciously scratched the side of the cup. Her eyes were always glancing at Wu Chen, and from time to time at Gu Ruibo, who was silent and considering.
Gu Ruibo’s men, Chen Lixing and Qi Jun, were paying attention to Gu Ruibo’s expression.
They knew that their boss, who was only in his early thirties, was a genius businessman. He was good at negotiating and had strong opinions, but he also listened to the opinions of his subordinates.
What happened today was a bit too sudden for Chen and Qi.
For such a complicated matter, they immediately talked about the distribution of benefits.
They felt that the boss Gu Ruibo would either put it off and talk about it later with excuses, or he would just give his own psychological expectations.
“Mr. Wu.” Finally speaking, Gu Ruibo, who was silent, said with a smile, “First of all, at least 5% of the profits must be reserved. There is a need to employ people, and there will be people who would want the soup…”
“That’s right.” Wu Chen smiled and nodded.
“However, this part of the benefits should be given to the subsidiaries below. The parent company must be owned by Ms. Wu and I, only the two of us…” Gu Ruibo added.
That’s nonsense.
Gu Ruibo obviously didn’t think about it all at once, and he couldn’t look embarrassed by not speaking, so he spoke first.
“So?” Wu Chen asked Gu Ruibo while keeping a smile.
“So the parent company…” Gu Ruibo paused again before saying, “60%!”
As soon as the 60% figure came out, both Chen Lixing and Qi Jun showed expressions of “Sure enough,” while Wu Yurong’s expression changed.
If Gu Ruibo gets 60%, Wu Yurong would get 40%. According to her own assumptions, even if she cooperated with Gu Ruibo alone, she should be able to get 40%. It couldn’t be lower.
It was even more impossible to give her only 30% of the shares, especially not less than 34%!
Because once Wu Yurong’s shareholding was lower than 34%, it meant that Gu Ruibo’s shareholding reached 67%, which means it exceeded two-thirds of the shareholding, which was a complete and absolute control!
Wu Yurong would have no right to speak.
So Gu Ruibo could not let her shares be below 34%, or there would be no sincerity at all. Even the basis of cooperation would be gone!
And 40% was the first integer above 34%. So… this was equivalent to some kind of limit!
“60%…” Gu Ruibo said again, “Ms. Wu and Mr. Wu will take 60% and I will take 40%.”
Wu Yurong’s face changed again and she was a little confused. 60% was hers? Gu Ruibo would take 40%?
Gu Ruibo’s two subordinates, Chen Lixing and Qi Jun, also changed their expressions at the same time. Their eyes widened and looked at their boss Gu Ruibo with uneasy expressions.
Huge concession!
They had no idea why the boss would directly make such a huge concession! That’s not a little money. It was an astronomical figure! At least billions of assets were involved.
Even Wu Chen was a little surprised, Gu Ruibo… was so courageous!
He liked it!
In fact, Gu Ruibo thought clearly. For the Ding family, the initial investment was low and the return was super high… Logically speaking, if this matter did not succeed in the end, then the distribution of benefits would not make much sense.
But if it succeeded, for Gu Ruibo, although he would get less, he would… hand it over to the “wonderful person” Wu Chen!
Everything was done by Wu Chen!
If he succeeded, he would have the ability to make it rain at the wave of his hand!
Gu Ruibo didn’t want to make a one-time deal. What he thought was that if Wu Chen was really so awesome, then as long as he gave up some benefits this time, next time Wu Chen caused trouble, he would definitely think of him first and take him with him to make money.
What he just said was very clear, and it was clearly pointed out in his words that “Ms. Wu and Mr. Wu get 60%, not Ms. Wu gets 60%.”
Although in previous conversations, Wu Chen made it clear that he would not participate in subsequent operations and would not take any shares.
But that’s what Gu Ruibo said. He felt that Wu Chen and Wu Yurong should both understand what it meant specifically.
The private room was quiet for a few seconds.
“Boss Gu is refreshing,” Wu Chen said with a smile.
Then Wu Chen stood up with the goblet in hand, glanced around. As he stood up, Wu Yurong stood up, Gu Ruibo also stood up, and Chen Lixing and Qi Jun stood up.
They all held wine glasses.
“I wish you all a prosperous business and great wealth… happy cooperation!” When saying happy cooperation, Wu Chen made a gesture of clinking glasses. The table was too big to touch, so he clinked glasses with the nearest person.
“Happy cooperation!”
“Cheers!”
Clink, clank, cheers!
They drank them all in one go!
Next, the wine table entered a lively chatting atmosphere, no longer talking about business, just simple chatting. Gu Ruibo and Wu Yurong were both extremely talkative people, and the topics ranged from everything. As long as the two of them didn’t want to be silent, they would definitely not be quiet.
Until ten o’clock in the evening, it finally ended.
They all drank a little too much.
Gu Ruibo drank the most, followed by Wu Yurong.
At around 10:10, everyone had come down to the lobby on the first floor and were walking out.
Gu Ruibo, who had drunk too much, was arm-in-arm with Wu Chen, drunkenly whispering to Wu Chen, while Wu Yurong was walking aside. She was also drunk and could not walk very steadily. The female bodyguard Chu Yan had to support her a little.
Behind them were Chen Lixing, Qi Jun, and some bodyguards, and a large group of people went out together.
“Mr. Wu… let’s make arrangements tomorrow, I…” Gu Ruibo was speechless. He hadn’t drank so much for a long time. He was really, really happy today. He could just sit at home and make tons of money.
Although he had to bear corresponding risks for this, how could there be no risk in doing business? Wu Chen was the God of Wealth!
Just when everyone was about to go out.
“Ms. Wu?” A middle-aged man’s surprised voice suddenly came from not far away.
