For the Kang family, the best result is naturally that Xinke Computer gave up the acquisition. There are many technology companies in Hong Kong stocks, so why bother to hang me from Shanghua?

Liuer Fund is rich, but those with money may not be willful. Moreover, this acquisition is mainly based on Xinke Computer Company. A premium of 50% to 100% is a relatively reasonable acquisition cost. Acquisitions that exceed this cost cannot be said to be successful.

So for Pang Zhou, how much is he willing to pay for Shanghua Technology? This is the information Kang Yiwen wants to find out the most, but unfortunately, no one knows this bottom line.

Liu Hui most hopes that Xinke Computer can be successfully listed. After Xinke Computer goes public, the stock price will rise, which is almost obvious. Many senior executives in the company, even project managers at the bottom and programmers in key positions, have obtained considerable share allocations.

As soon as it is listed, Xinke Computer Company can immediately create dozens or hundreds of hundred hundred hundred hundred books, hundreds of millionaires, or even millionaires.

Although the stock allocation can only be distributed and not sold, the subscribed stocks held by a group of high-ranking officials and noble relatives in the city are truly valuable things. How many people's wealth depends on him this time.

In addition, what is more important is that it can regain core strength for Xinke Computers.

Yes, Xinke Computer Company's status has been declining year by year in recent years. As for Liu Hui, he was just the marketing manager of the Imperial Capital Research Institute of Panhan Research Institute. He has a pretty good software marketing team, but it is only a scale of dozens of people.

Because his subordinates touched Zhou Shuo's bad head, they were transferred to Xinke Computer Company because they were half "expressed".

What is the scale of Xinke Computer Company? It's not anything else. It only does software outsourcing business, and it has a turnover of US$50 million a year. If we include the growing custom outsourcing and ERP software business, and the domestic software market developed by Liu Hui, Xinke Computer Company even achieved a turnover of RMB 1 billion in 1996.

After deducting various costs and dividends, the company still has a surplus of 200 million yuan. To put it bluntly, how could Liu Hui and He De take the position of manager?

But even so, all senior executives in the Panhan Group know that Xinke Computer Company is rapidly marginalizing. This is not that it cannot make money or has become smaller in scale, but that its technological growth is in a state of weakness.

Xinke Computer Company was once the brainchild of Zhou Shuo, with many technical experts in it. The technology they developed is the foundation for the growth of Fanhan Group to this day.

But now, many promising projects in Xinke Computer Company have been successively placed in other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Fanhan Group. For example, Qiujun's software projects such as WPS, computer game projects, and embedded system projects, once these projects improve, they will set up a company.

Until the end, Xinke Computer Company's main business route was completely limited to software outsourcing and ERP businesses. From a strategic point of view, it was already dead and had no future.

Liu Hui’s most urgent hope is to gain a certain degree of autonomy after the company goes public and be able to develop new software research and development directions. Although he has always been an advocate of the market being king, after all, he has been working in the Panhan Group for so long and has been infected with technology first. Without new technologies, it will be difficult for the company to develop new profit growth points in the future. Once the old market shrinks, what is the way out for those of you?

Therefore, it must be listed! Only when it is listed, Xinke Computer has a way out and hope. This is his most urgent wish.

But even Liu Hui, who was so eager to get a listing opportunity, had his face turned pale when he saw the 100,000 orders sold on the stock market of HK$18 per share.

It is only a gap of HK$4 from his acquisition bottom line. No matter how eager he wants to acquire Shanghua Technology, Liu Hui will not agree to pay a premium of more than 100%. You should know that this is Xinke Computer Company's acquisition of Shanghua Technology, not the Liuer Investment Fund, which is not short of money. HK$1.28 billion is equivalent to more than US$167 million, and it will exceed Xinke Computer Company's payment ability.

"Eat it and list it again, and acquire Shanghua Technology for HK$19."

Pang Zhou was not nervous at all. For him, this was just a warm-up match after the halftime break. It was just a $100 million to acquire a company, which was really not a big trouble.

"Mr. Pang, why don't we slow down..." Liu Hui swallowed and said nervously: "In the current market, there is no need to acquire such a radical acquisition. When the decline in the Hong Kong stock market affects Shanghua Technology, it should be possible to collect some shares from retail investors at a lower price."

Pang Zhou smiled softly, looked at Liu Hui and said, "Mr. Liu is a little restless, just wait a little longer, just wait a little longer."

"I don't know, what Mr. Pang is waiting for?" Liu Hui was really up and down in his heart, and was a little frightened by the crazy stock price. In his eyes, what he saw was that the other party was determined to acquire Shanghua, and he unscrupulously raised the stock price, wanting to take advantage of the situation to rob.

Pang Zhou pointed to a pair of rattan chairs and coffee tables by the window of the large household room, and smiled and said, "Let's sit down and talk slowly. The other party should think carefully this time."

Liu Hui looked at the large-screen TV hanging on the wall. Sure enough, after waiting for a long time, no new large-scale transactions appeared. However, there were ten-handed and hundreds of hands selling orders from time to time, and there was no wave at all. He followed Pang Zhou and sat down on a rattan chair. The rattan chair was made with artistic level. Not only did it look antique and natural, but it also sat down completely to his waist, without any discomfort.

But this unique rattan chair did not attract his attention at all. As soon as he sat down, Liu Hui hurriedly asked Pang Zhou for advice.

"Mr. Pang must have a plan in his mind, but he just doesn't know if he can let me learn a little bit?"

Pang Zhou smiled and waved his hand. He asked Liu Hui: "Have Mr. Liu played bridge?"

"Bridge?" Liu Hui was stunned for a moment, not understanding why he suddenly turned to this topic, but he still said truthfully: "I have heard of it, but I don't know how to play it. I usually just play Landlords or something."

"Oh, I have been in the United States for the past few years, but I can't even play Doudizhu." Pang Zhou regretted himself and continued: "There are many ways to play bridge, but there will be a process of bidding. Generally speaking, it is similar to Doudizhu's start calling the score, but there are some differences. I won't talk about the specific gameplay. The key is that this bidding is called the conditions for the final victory."

Liu Hui is not stupid, and he can even be said to be a very flexible person, otherwise he would not have been able to make a fortune in the marketing market. Pang Zhou clicked a little and immediately realized: "So Mr. Pang and the major shareholder of Shanghua Technology were bidding before?"

"almost."

Pang Zhou nodded, admired Liu Hui's understanding and said with a smile: "I bid for 11 Hong Kong dollars, and he returned 13 Hong Kong dollars and 20,000 hands. This is a test to see if the Kang family, who masters Shanghua Technology, has the intention to take action."

"Then they called back 13 HKD 20,000, what does it mean?"

"There are two questions here, one is why it is HK$13? The other is why it is 20,000 lots?"

Pang Zhou said confidently: "HKD 13, why isn't it 12 Hong Kong dollars or 14,15 Hong Kong dollars? The Kang family is sending a letter of war, 13 Hong Kong dollars, and if you have the ability, you are just positive."

"Highly facing?" Liu Hui knew this was a dialect and understood its meaning, but what does it mean when used here?

"Well, if the Kang family calls 12 Hong Kong dollars, it's too sticky, it's just to fight with us. If it exceeds 13 Hong Kong dollars, it means that he wants the lion to speak up and scare people away, and instead reveals his timid heart. It's 13 Hong Kong dollars. This price is conveying a message, 'I dare to sell, do you dare to buy it?"

"As for the number of 20,000 hands, it's easy to understand. It's less than four, which clearly means 'small meaning'."

"Uh--" Liu Hui blinked and said in a daze: "Can you still explain this?"

"Haha, that's about that, just 20,000 hands, neither of us took it seriously." Pang Zhou relaxed for a moment, picked up the teacup on the coffee table and drank water, and then said: "But besides this meaning, I believe the Kang family should not know that I saw another meaning."

"There is another meaning?" Liu Hui was really impressed. Who would have thought that just conveying these few meanings, there are hundreds of millions of funds changing hands in the market. This is so exciting!

Pang Zhou's eyes shone brightly and he smiled excitedly: "Yes, the Kang family dare not refuse my acquisition. This itself means that they do not have absolute control! No, it should be said that in the hands of retail investors and investors in the market, there may be more than 51% of Shanghua Technology's shares!"

He did not give Liu Hui a chance to interrupt, and then said, "Then I called 14 Hong Kong dollars per share, which is the challenge. The Kang family is afraid, what are they afraid of? I think they are afraid of me to raise the price to the extent that retail investors are attracted. But based on previous evidence alone, I can't be sure, so the first thing is to hide my discovery..."

Liu Hui suddenly realized and shouted excitedly: "Oh, so you called 14 Hong Kong dollars to make the Kang family believe that you agreed to face them with them."

Pang Zhou showed a savvy expression and nodded and smiled, "That's right, but then the Kang family released 18 HK$100,000 hands. If we follow the normal idea, they plan to use Taishan to press the top to make me give up. The price increase of 4 HK$18 will reach 18 HK$, which is already exceeding the bottom line of the general acquisition premium of 50%. The Kang family wants to shock me with this move, and is also testing my determination."

"So I took down the 100,000 shares and called another HK$19, because I have been sure that the Kang family has absolutely no shares that are sufficient to control."
Chapter completed!
