Chapter 1555 Boomerang

Zhu Zhenghao was startled, then said proudly: "How could Sihai not be able to operate? Before your Jiuzhou rose, Sihai was at least the number one logistics company in Qingjiang. Although it has encountered some problems now, it will not affect the operation of the company."

However, after hearing these words, several people present could clearly see that he was guilty.

Li Wei said, "If that's the case, why would Mr. Zhu lower his status to merge with us? And why would he be willing to give up some shares?"

Zhu Zhenghao said, "Isn't this for better development in the future? Since we are fighting on our own, there will inevitably be competition. As long as there is competition, both sides will inevitably suffer. If we merge, won't we have the final say in Qingjiang Logistics in the future?"

Li Wei nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Zhu Zhenghao was delighted and quickly said, "Boss Li also agrees with what I said?"

"Yes, there is competition between the two companies. If there is only one company, these unnecessary troubles can be avoided." Li Wei said, "I remember that a few months ago, Mr. Zhu wanted to acquire Jiuzhou. Is that what Mr. Zhu thought at that time?"

Zhu Zhenghao's face showed a trace of embarrassment, and he said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Li, that was just a joke. I think we are classmates, so we can still make a joke, right?"

Li Wei suddenly realized and said, "Oh, so Mr. Zhu was joking with me at that time? Then...was he joking with me today as well?"

Zhu Zhenghao quickly said: "I came here with sincerity today..."

Li Wei's eyes flickered and he said, "Well, since Mr. Zhu came here with sincerity, I will also sincerely make a suggestion for Mr. Zhu to consider."

The stone in Zhu Zhenghao's heart fell halfway.

He was afraid that Li Wei would hold a grudge, so he refused to talk to him.

As long as Li Wei is willing to talk, there is hope.

In fact, he knew that the merger as he envisioned was impossible, so he was prepared to take a step back, or even three steps back.

Sihai is now completely unable to operate. If they do not quickly seek a merger or sale, the end result will be a loss, and they and their son will be left with huge debts.

He now has the worst plan in mind. As long as he can sell Sihai, he can stop the loss in time.

"It's simple. Sell Sihai to me."

Li Wei said calmly.

Zhu Zhenghao's heart sank. He didn't expect Li Wei to directly give such a condition.

"Mr. Li... in this case, is that right..."

He said hesitantly.

Li Wei said, "Are you trying to say that I am taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"

Zhu Zhenghao quickly said, "That's not what I meant... I was wondering if you could give me some shares for the sake of being classmates?"

Li Wei said slowly: "I remember you once said to me: the business world is like a battlefield, it is all about the law of the jungle, the law of the jungle is the norm. When you wanted to acquire Jiuzhou, I also asked you if it was a tactic to take advantage of someone's misfortune. What was your answer at the time?

Beads of sweat appeared on Zhu Zhenghao's forehead.

Of course he remembered this.

At that time, he went to Jiuzhou in person to find Li Wei, and after belittling him once, he said that he wanted to acquire Jiuzhou.

But the price he offered was not even a bargain.

Because at that time he had already taken over Li Wei's Jiuzhou, and it was impossible for him to develop.

Li Wei was very angry at the time and asked him if he was taking advantage of his misfortune by doing this.

He was very proud at the time, and he made a very reasonable statement about the law of the jungle, and he clearly said: "In the business world, there is not so much help in times of need, at most it is icing on the cake! And kicking someone when he is down is the norm, because it is natural for businessmen to seek profit!"

He regarded this passage as his classic quote and even wrote it down in his notebook when he got home.

But I didn't expect that the situation would change and now it's my turn to be in trouble and it's others' turn to kick me when I'm down.

Thinking of this past event and the words he had said, he suddenly felt very upset.

You really shouldn't be too proud of yourself as a person. Once you encounter adversity, the more proud you were in the past, the more embarrassed you will be now.

"Mr. Li... those were all my unintentional words. Actually... they were just a business negotiation tactic. How could I really do that?"

He thought about it and said with some guilt.

These words are pale and powerless.

Li Wei obviously didn't believe it, but smiled and said, "Boss Zhu's unintentional words, but I just listened to them and took them as my motto. It's natural for businessmen to seek profits. This sentence is really well said."

As he said that, he poured another glass of wine for Zhu Zhenghao, picked up his own glass and said, "Boss Zhu, just for this sentence, let's have a drink?"

Zhu Zhenghao's hands were shaking. He never dreamed that the boomerang would pierce his forehead so quickly.

He picked up the wine glass, smiled bitterly and said, "Boss Li won't really bother with me, right?"

Li Wei clinked his glass with his, drank the wine in his glass, and said, "Mr. Zhu, I can buy Sihai, but it must be all of it. As for the price, I will send someone to evaluate it. Of course, the final transaction price cannot be the evaluation price..."

Zhu Zhenghao felt a chill down his spine when he heard this.

If we look at the account book of the current situation, it is really disastrous.

The overdue wages at the end of the year have not been paid, and the evaluation agency will give a floor price based on the market potential.

Moreover, it seems impossible for Li Wei to acquire the property at the appraised price.

"Then... what price does Mr. Li plan to buy it for?"

He asked somewhat desperately.

If Sihai doesn't take action, his family will be in big trouble, and even his father may go to jail.

Li Wei raised his index finger without hesitation and shook it gently.

Zhu Zhenghao suddenly turned pale, his vision went dark, and he almost fell to the ground.

This is also his classic move.

When he and Li Wei were discussing the purchase price of Jiuzhou, Li Wei quoted the market appraisal price, and he stretched out his index finger and shook it without hesitation.

"One percent!"

Li Wei uttered two words calmly.

%!

That is only one tenth of the appraised value, the legendary price of cabbage stalks!

"Is this... too low?"

Zhu Zhenghao almost fainted and whispered unwillingly.

Li Wei said with a firm look in his eyes: "Boss Zhu, this is the limit I can give you. I made this decision for the sake of our old classmate. Logically speaking, the acquisition of Sihai must be approved by the board of directors. If Boss Zhu feels that he cannot accept it, then we can find a company that can satisfy him."

Zhu Zhenghao knew there was no room for negotiation, so he looked to Chen Xing, Pan Zhishun and Pi Yangyang for help.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Pan, Mr. Pi, can you please raise the price a little bit for the sake of our friendship?"

Although he was desperate, he still wanted to make one last effort.

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly, "Li Wei is the CEO of Jiuzhou. He has made the decision. As shareholders, we naturally strongly support it. Mr. Zhu, you should go back and discuss it with your family and make a decision as soon as possible. Because we are preparing to expand to other places. Once we invest, we will have no funds to acquire Sihai..."

Chen Xing and Pan Zhishun nodded at the same time and said, "We all agree with the president's decision."

Zhu Zhihao knew there was no hope anymore, and said sadly: "Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with my dad, and give you an answer tomorrow..."

After saying that, he stumbled out of the private room.
