Chapter 512: 508. Talks Broken Down? (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)
Jiasike frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang, you aren't being sincere, are you? Sixty percent? That's too much. If it's like this, we might as well not talk."
Zhang Ran said indifferently, "Then let's not talk. Anyway, it wasn't me who initiated these talks. Actually, if it were up to me, we would just fight it out with real blades and guns; whoever loses then would have nothing to say."
"There isn't much point in discussing this now. I've already paid such a high price; I won't be satisfied without sixty percent of the market share."
"Doesn't Mr. Zhang feel his appetite is a bit too big?" Landeng said softly.
Zhang Ran laughed, "Big? I really don't feel it's big."
"If this is Mr. Zhang's attitude, then I feel there's no need to continue talking. There's no way to negotiate like this," Ailike said 'angrily'.
The others also wore angry expressions, as if they would immediately start a formal war if Zhang Ran continued to be so insistent.
Zhang Ran looked at their appearance, smiled, and said, "Then let's not talk. Anyway, that is my position."
Seeing this situation, Jiasike hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "There's no need for everyone to be like this. Mr. Zhang, don't be impatient. Since it's like this, why don't we merge?"
He proposed another plan, which was something these people had discussed.
In the past, if they had been asked to cooperate, it would have been harder than ascending to heaven, but now, facing such a huge threat from Zhang Ran, they had no choice but to cooperate.
Zhang Ran laughed, "Merge? What kind of merger?"
"As far as I know, Mr. Zhang's shares in Fengli Group are not high." Jiasike's words were interrupted by Zhang Ran before he could finish.
"Speaking like that is pointless. It's true I don't have many shares right now, but after this, the shares definitely won't be few, and no one will dare to trip me up on this," Zhang Ran said calmly.
Jiasike took a deep breath and said, "Fine. Since that's the case, Mr. Zhang, if you want to obtain these shares, you will certainly need a large capital investment. Does Mr. Zhang still have that much money now? Besides, this is completely unnecessary."
"We can completely unite to kick the other shareholders out and form a new company together. That would be best for everyone."
Zhang Ran laughed. These guys were playing these tricks again; for them, this was simply a daily routine.
Zhang Ran believed that if he agreed to this condition, he would next have to face the power struggles within the entire company. He believed it would be very lively then.
As for Zhao Lifeng and his team?
Heh, they probably wouldn't be able to stay either.
However, Zhang Ran said, "That could work, but how much of the shares would you all take?"
"How about we divide them according to the current market share?" Landeng said.
Zhang Ran laughed. Were they treating him like a fool?
But Zhang Ran still didn't get angry; instead, he said with a smile, "Sure."
Now it was Landeng and the others' turn to be stunned. Zhang Ran agreed so easily?
But they immediately realized they were wrong.
"But not according to the current market share, but according to the future market share," Zhang Ran said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Ailike frowned and asked.
Zhang Ran said, "What else could I mean? Right now you want me to take only thirty percent of the shares, and I still have to share them with others, and even bear the reputation of 'killing the donkey after the millstone is done.' I don't agree to that."
"So since everyone has this idea, why not wait until after this matter is over to see how much market share everyone has left, and then talk about the merger?"
Now everyone understood Zhang Ran's meaning. He had no intention of cooperating at all; he still wanted to keep fighting.
"Mr. Zhang, if that's the case, there's no need to continue talking. I hope Mr. Zhang won't regret it later." Ailike said this and prepared to leave.
Jiasike also said, "Mr. Zhang, you came here with absolutely no intention of cooperating?"
Department Head Zhao just watched from the side; he did not speak on such matters.
Zhang Ran laughed, "Of course I do, but not for cooperation in the Huaxia market. There is other cooperation, I just don't know if you all are interested."
Hearing this, Ailike stopped leaving. What did Zhang Ran mean by this?
Department Head Zhao also showed an interested expression; he also wanted to hear what kind of cooperation Zhang Ran had.
"Please speak, Mr. Zhang," Landeng said.
Zhang Ran said, "Actually, everyone seems to have forgotten one point: Fengli Group's B2B Business also occupies a significant market share, and this is the foundation for our cooperation. I believe everyone is no stranger to B2B."
"After this Huaxia e-commerce war ends, Fengli Group's main goal will be the overseas B2B market. I believe everyone understands the current situation of Huaxia products internationally."
"To say nothing else, some small commodities are basically 'Made in Huaxia.' I believe you will be interested in the market and profits involved in this."
This was the main purpose of Zhang Ran's visit, and also the main intent for cooperation. If he wanted to rapidly develop Fengli Group's B2B Business, then cooperating with these capital consortiums was the best way.
As for the e-commerce market within Huaxia?
Heh, they could only follow along to eat some leftovers. He, Zhang Ran, had spent such a high price, not to let them pick the peaches.
"This can be discussed. However, Mr. Zhang, is there really no room for negotiation regarding the online shopping market?" Jiasike said.
Zhang Ran clearly stated his position this time, "No. The Huaxia online shopping market will depend on everyone's own abilities this time. It won't be too late to talk after this war ends."
This time, everyone completely understood Zhang Ran's meaning. If you want to talk, you can, but it's impossible to talk without paying a price.
"Then let's see who has the real skills," Jiasike said in Chinese, apparently having done some research into the language.
The negotiation seemed to have broken down, but not a single person left. The negotiation on this matter had failed, but they were also interested in the overseas B2B market that Zhang Ran proposed.
So they continued the negotiation, and as for the Huaxia market, they would just do what they had to do.
However, this matter could not be rushed; even the initial consultations would take quite a bit of time.
And while they were still talking, Fengli Group made another move. This time, the subsidies for some merchants were even larger, looking as if they wouldn't stop until they beat them down.
In the evening, while Zhang Ran and Jiasike's group were still eating, they heard the news, and their gazes toward Zhang Ran were somewhat unkind.
But Zhang Ran just smiled at this; these were just some common tactics in the business world.
Although Jiasike and the others felt somewhat uncomfortable, they still didn't leave, though they only ate for a little while before quickly leaving to start a meeting.
