Chapter 202: Chapter 202 You Are a Reliable Person
Xu Yang pondered and asked, “How much is your company valued at, and how much are you looking to finance?”
Chen Kaiji’s face lit up with joy, it seemed his judgment was correct. Xu Yang indeed was an investor.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked that question.
Thus, he quickly said, “President Xu, my company is valued at one billion, and I’m looking to raise three hundred million, offering you thirty percent of the shares.”
Xu Yang said, “I want eighty percent of the shares, I’ll give you eight hundred million, and you can keep the remaining twenty percent. You will serve as the general manager, continue to manage the company, but the company has to be renamed to Yang Xin Games. If you are willing, I will go through with the acquisition. If not, then let’s forget it.”
He had already acquired Great White Shark Game Company.
This game company, he planned to hold the controlling stake, as it would be more profitable that way.
Chen Kaiji was stunned.
He had not expected Xu Yang to want a controlling stake.
And to make himself into an employee, keeping only twenty percent of the shares.
This indicated that Xu Yang saw potential in his game company.
But the sudden change from boss to employee was something Chen Kaiji found hard to stomach.
Even though this employee would hold twenty percent of the shares.
After thinking it through, Chen Kaiji said, “President Xu, I only want to raise funds to get through this difficult period. I hadn’t thought about selling the company.”
If he gave Xu Yang eighty percent of the shares, it essentially meant selling the company.
Xu Yang gave a faint smile, “I said, if you’re unwilling, then it’s fine. After all, I’m not desperate to make this investment.”
Having said that, he prepared to leave.
“President Xu, wait a moment.”
Seeing Xu Yang about to leave, Chen Kaiji suddenly became anxious.
He had approached many investors before, but they all said his game company had no future and declined to invest.
If he couldn’t attract investment, the company would go bankrupt in a matter of ten days to a fortnight.
One could say Xu Yang was his last hope.
But Xu Yang asked for too much, leaving him in a dilemma.
Seeing Xu Yang’s resolute intention to leave, he couldn’t afford to hesitate any longer.
Without the company, he would have nothing.
In this period, he had mortgaged his house and car, pouring everything into the company to keep it running.
Instead of ending up with nothing, it was better to take the twenty percent of the shares and serve as the general manager.
“Do you have anything else you want to say? These are my terms; if you agree, then agree. If not, then let’s forget it,” Xu Yang said.
“Fine, I agree,” Chen Kaiji, gritting his teeth, agreed.
“Good, come find me at Yang Xin Investment at ten o’clock next Monday morning,” Xu Yang said.
“Alright,” Chen Kaiji nodded.
The two exchanged contact information, Xu Yang sent Chen Kaiji the address for Yang Xin Investment, and then left.
Afterward, Xu Yang also conversed with other proprietors.
They all knew his identity and were extremely enthusiastic.
Xu Yang reciprocated generously, drank a fair amount of alcohol, and collected quite a few business cards.
At the end of the gathering, many people felt very satisfied for having attended, especially those who managed to talk with Xu Yang and get acquainted with him.
Guo Wenlin personally escorted Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin to the manor’s gate, watched Xu Yang’s car disappear from view, and only then withdrew his gaze.
On the car ride home.
Zhao Yuxin excitedly said, “Husband, I made a few friends today, one of them is our neighbor, the wife of the Seafood King Lan Penghua. She said we should visit each other when we’re free.”
Xu Yang nodded and said, “Not bad. Today I closed two collaborative deals and made one investment.”
Zhao Yuxin asked in confusion, “Collaboration? With whom? And what investment?”
Xu Yang narrated the situation to her.
“Husband, I can understand the collaboration with the Seafood King and the Furniture King, but can this game company really make money? Just because they say they can produce a hit game, you believe them?” Zhao Yuxin was somewhat incredulous.
“Your husband naturally has his own judgment, and he will definitely make money. Just trust your husband,” he said.
Xu Yang obviously couldn’t say that it was the system that indicated the profitability, so he gave a vague answer.
“Okay,” Zhao Yuxin didn’t ask further.
In fact, she was just asking casually and didn’t mean to delve into it.
If Xu Yang was willing to invest in the acquisition, he must have had his reasons.
Every investment Xu Yang made would yield amazing returns.
She didn’t need to worry, and she didn’t want to.
Monday.
At ten o’clock in the morning, Chen Kaiji arrived at Yang Xin Investment.
“Mr. Xu, aren’t you going to check out the company?” Chen Kaiji asked.
Seeing Xu Yang instructing the legal department to draft a contract, signifying his intention to sign it, Chen Kaiji couldn’t help himself.
Considering you’re acquiring eighty percent of the shares and even changing the name, the company will be yours; how can you not even take a look?
“No need to look. I trust you; I think you are a reliable person, and your company is a reliable company!” Xu Yang bluffed with all seriousness.
“Uh… okay, I’m glad to have your approval, Mr. Xu,” Chen Kaiji could only say that.
He didn’t want to go look at it, simply because he wasn’t interested anymore.
According to the system’s message, acquiring it was all that mattered.
If it was the first investment company he was acquiring, he might have been interested in taking a look.
But after acquiring Great White Shark Gaming, he couldn’t be bothered to check out other gaming companies.
The contract was signed.
Xu Yang said, “Yang Xin Investment will transfer eight hundred million to Tenglong Gaming’s account today. You handle the name change, and the company’s operational management is your responsibility. My people will check in periodically, but I trust you won’t let me down.”
“Mr. Xu, rest assured, I definitely won’t let you down.” Chen Kaiji was somewhat moved.
It was rare for a boss to trust him so much.
Chen Kaiji even felt the impulse to consider Xu Yang as a close friend.
“Good, I’m leaving the company in your hands, and that puts my mind at ease,” Xu Yang nodded, patting his shoulder. “Go take care of it, I hope to see you get everything settled quickly. If there are any problems, you can contact Yang Xin Investment here.”
“Okay, Mr. Xu, then I’ll take my leave,” Chen Kaiji stood up and left.
Xu Yang left Yang Xin Investment.
He went to Haidilao to understand the situation there.
Now, Haidilao’s locations in second-tier cities had started renovations and would be ready to open in two months.
At that point, the company’s valuation would soar further.
He had lunch with his father-in-law and Zhou Ruyan.
After lunch, Xu Yang went home.
Once home, he received a phone call from Ye Kaifeng, the general manager of Hui’an Pharmaceuticals.
“Mr. Xu, our phase II clinical trial for the stomach cancer drug has been a complete success, and we’ll now proceed to phase III clinical trials. Once it passes phase III, we’ll launch it to the market.”
“We must prepare for this by bringing in some major capital to protect the company, or else we’ll be easy targets.”
“I’ve decided to release ten percent of the shares for funding of ten billion.”
“We’ll hold a shareholders’ meeting on Wednesday, and every shareholder should attend to discuss it. Everyone must contribute a proportion of their shares according to their holdings.”
“As the company’s second-largest shareholder, you must attend.”
Ye Kaifeng was very busy, so even making this call was quite rare.

“Okay, I’ll attend,” Xu Yang naturally had no objections.
This was very beneficial for the development of Hui’an Pharmaceuticals.
Introducing heavy-weight capital would allow any issues that the company couldn’t resolve to be managed through the capital’s network of connections.
This was similar to when Xu Yang had Jiang Yuheng and Su Wenbin invest in Haidilao.
If it had not been for their investments, Haidilao’s expansion in other cities would have been very difficult.
