Chapter 918

The atmosphere in the conference room has become a bit awkward in the quarrel. At present, the biggest obstacle to the negotiation is that seven founders of Tesla company even hope to retain some shares.

In particular, Larry Page, Sergey and eBay Jeff Skoll, who are not poor in money, are the real founders of Tesla, Martin Eberhard, who has been kicked out of the company, and musk, who has always been complex and difficult to understand.

Elon Musk was forced by the board of directors to accept the negotiation of Andy Smith's acquisition. He has been unable to let go of the loss of the company's dominant power, which is hard to nibble step by step.

He has long decided not to be involved in Tesla's business. Take the money and go to play with his own rockets. He doesn't believe that the young people in the opposite side who have been playing with their mobile phones, like what happened in the conference room, will allow him to dominate the company's business.

You need to know that this seemingly young genius is not a good match person. He is very good at acquisition and M & A, but also has a vicious and cunning external consensus, such as layoffs, kicking off the founders, sending corrupt people to prison...

Although the professional managers under him are like fish in water, that's because this young man can completely control these people. Everyone knows that Andy Smith's think tank is a group of gendarmes. What he does is to help him deal with the daily briefing of various companies, supervise the operation of each company, and the financial directors and legal advisers of each company are all from him They went out of the think tank.

To be honest, Andy, as a means of controlling the company, can really understand how rigorous and firm he is. In this case, he can certainly show a great deal of power to the CEOs. Similarly, he can dismiss any CEOs with a letter without causing the company turbulence.

Musk is also a genius. He also has the title of tyrant. When he was married and on his honeymoon, he was united by the company's employees to create a fan. You can imagine how unpopular his character is.

He has analyzed it for a long time. He and Andy Smith have a little sense of security. They have to work hard and honestly. Once they violate him, musk is very convinced that Andy Smith will kick himself out without blinking an eye.

"You guys, let me get straight to you Andy pauses "Plants vs. Zombies" on his mobile phone, raises his head, says with a smile on his face, calms down the meeting room, and continues after the eyes of the crowd are focused on him.

"200 million US dollars, I want 100% of Tesla's shares. I don't like troubles and constraints. After taking over, I will definitely carry out some reforms to the company. Of course, you will still receive the limited edition of the founder of Tesla super run as a souvenir. After the first batch of orders are completed, Tesla will carry out round a financing, and all the co founders here will get the priority To put it in the memo.

After all, the first batch of orders, Tesla delivery will certainly produce a lot of losses, I don't want you to regret and complain at that time, if not 100% holding, then I can only say sorry to you! "

Andy's words made the atmosphere in the conference room congealed. Especially the executives of Tesla looked at each other and saw their worries from each other's eyes. To be honest, the management of Tesla company would like to have such a rich young man as the boss. They don't have to worry about not having money to burn. They don't have to pay NIMA like they do now.

But at the same time, they are the most worried group, because the big boss who is going to take over the company is a ruthless master, and the big guillotine for layoff waving is six don't don't want, OK, now listen, it really needs to be rectified, this rectification will start from layoff.

However, they have no choice but to watch. After all, they work for the fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of big bosses.

Andy's words are almost settled. He doesn't need the money of these people. When his acquisition is completed, he will raise the price of the first batch of orders under pressure, reduce the loss to the lowest level, and then start to enlarge the recruitment, hype new concepts, and raise the company's valuation before he will carry out the first round of financing. In this way, the four rounds of financing will be over, and the IPO can be easily promoted Yes.

In fact, Larry Page also saw that Andy was willing to invest in the projects they had been looking forward to. He was a bit reluctant to give up. Who knows if Tesla would soar in Andy's hands? If it did, he would not regret it. Anyway, he didn't have much money, so it's better to keep a little share appreciation.

No one is a fool. Andy's meaning can't be understood. I don't want to take you to play now. That's because the stock price of the company is cabbage price. Wait for me to raise the company's valuation. You also want me to take you to play. You have the priority in the first round of financing.

Larry Page and a few people also know that it's up to them, unless they don't want to make the acquisition, or continue to spend money to make musk burn, or watch Tesla file for bankruptcy, you know, there are a group of employees out there who are starving.

Without further entanglement, the following negotiations began to enter a simple mode. Various asset checks, financial handover, a document passed and signed in front of mask, a group of shareholders and Andy. Although it seemed very busy, the whole process was very smooth."Pa pa -"

in the conference room, after Andy and musk handed over the contract, when they shook hands, there was applause. Although it was warm, the smile on other people's faces was a little dull and tasteless except Andy's.

Tall and graceful, Torry black handed Andy seven white envelopes. Shareholders, including mask, watched the first envelope delivered by Andy and handed it to mask.

"Happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation."

。。。。。。

After the check handover, no matter whether you are happy or not, the transaction has been completed. Tesla company has belonged to Andy Smith since this moment. Tomorrow, you need this group of people to attend the conference and tell the outside world and Tesla's customers. Andy Smith, who is not poor in money, takes over Tesla and continues to develop clean and environmentally-friendly electric vehicles.

In the meeting room, Andy looks around with a smile at Tesla's management and development team, and claps hands.

"Pa!"

"Well, everyone, now we're all alone. Come on, everyone. Let's have a meeting!"

Andy stands on the main seat of the conference table, smiles on his face all the time. He holds a signing pen in his hand and presses it vertically on the conference table. He waits for everyone to sit down, smiles and opens his mouth, saying: "from the moment of signing, we are all a family. I know that everyone's mood is inevitably complicated and uneasy. Maybe you've heard about me Some rumors.

Well, I admit, I really want to cut the staff of Tesla company, but I was convinced by one person's words. To be honest, it's hard for me to persuade this person, but I have to believe this person's words. Are you curious about who this person is? Hehe, OK, I'll stop selling. Come on in, Martin

When people in the conference room heard Andy shouting at Martin, they all stared at the opened door and the familiar face that had just left the conference room. Tesla's management was a little excited.

They've probably guessed that Martin Eberhard, the real founder of the company, was called back by the new boss.

"Ha ha, OK, Martin, come and sit down, everyone. Let's continue the meeting..." Andy chuckles twice, and makes Martin sit in the first position on his left hand side. Then he looks around for a week and says calmly, "although there will be no layoffs, the salary will be reduced by 25%. I hope you can understand Tesla's current predicament."

Tesla's management is all secretly relieved. As long as there is no layoff, it is acceptable to reduce salary, especially in the current global economic crisis. GM, a giant company, has started to reduce its salary on a large scale, which is completely acceptable.

"The appointment of personnel will be adjusted. The biggest problem we are facing now is the cost of Tesla electric sports car mass production. The first batch of orders must be sold at a loss. We can only bite our teeth and raise the price. After all, there are terms in the pre-sale contract. However, in order to reduce the credit damage to the company, we also accept the cancellation of the order. "

as soon as Andy's voice fell, there was a sudden uproar in the conference room, and some disorderly comments were made. Andy coughed twice. After the crowd closed down, they said quietly:" raise the price to 110000 dollars, and start to form a negotiation team to find Panasonic and Mercedes Benz to renegotiate the pricing!

Now Tesla, the battery is Panasonic, the car is Mercedes Benz. Tesla's unique technology is motor technology and battery management technology. However, this is not so far away from the technology, and the difficulty of being replaced and surpassed is not very difficult for those hundred year old automobile manufacturers or those with technology accumulation.

So, Martin, I will arrange a financial accounting team for you to join your technology development team, continue to develop our unique new technology, motor, battery and battery management technology, and establish a relatively complete product technology system and charging technology system under the condition of reasonable cost control. In the future, we will start to build super charging stations on a large scale according to our own charging technology standards.

According to the trend that the energy density of lithium-ion battery increases by 8% every year, and the cost decreases accordingly, the cost price of our electric vehicle will be lower and lower, and there will be our Tesla cars all over the world. The coolest thing is to make popular products and fashion products, which will save the world... "

there was a warm applause in the conference room. No one would look down upon the young boss standing in the main position. Every word he said was focused on Tesla's focus. At the same time, he also pointed out a research and development path for Tesla's future. It's not exciting. It's fake. If the reputation of genius is not blown out, he really knows.

Andy smiled and pressed his hands down slightly, but the applause still kept on. He could only raise his voice and say: "of course, we will make money, too! When the time comes, I will take out shares to establish equity incentive. We Tesla will be the future of the automobile industry. All rumors that Tesla is doomed to bankruptcy will not be broken. "

There were thunderous applause in the conference room. It seemed that the cheers directly tore the clouds that Tesla had been driving away above her head!
