Chapter 97 Successful M&A
Clement's request was really not an exaggeration. It can be said that this was lower than Duke and his previous expectations. Susanna and Duke secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing this request, Duke almost couldn't help but agree. Fortunately, Susanna woke up in time and touched Duke gently under the table with her hand, signaling Duke not to speak.
Although Clement's conditions were good, Susanna still didn't want to agree so quickly. She was ready to discuss with Shu Ya, Selena and the others how to deal with this situation.
To be honest, before coming to gmosystems, although the brain wave product developed by Duke surprised Susanna, Susanna was still a little nervous before, but today, when she saw the surprise of Clement, a top expert in the industry, which could not hide, she was sure that Duke's technology was definitely much ahead of the industry, and even so much that the other party couldn't help but want to rely on it.
But the business was too busy, and this was Susanna's first reaction, so she decisively stopped Duke's words. It can be seen that Duke's talent is still much worse in this regard.
However, after being disturbed by Clement, Susanna was delighted and immediately realized that everyone's estimate of the value of this technology should have been revised. The situation has changed a lot now. Through customization by gmosystems, not only has the cost of the kit dropped a lot, but it is also very likely that gmosystems will be directly merged at a little cost, with brain wave helmet production capacity and directly control upstream production companies.
If all this is completed smoothly, the future development path will return to the original expected fast lane.
Clement's gmosystems company is valued between 10 million and 15 million US dollars in venture capital fund companies. He is willing to exchange it for only 10% of the shares of the United Company, which means that in the eyes of Clement, an industry expert, the valuation of the products developed by Duke is at least more than 100 million US dollars.
The world is prosperous and profitable. Don’t expect Clement to be a living Lei Feng. He is willing to exchange this shares, so he must think it is much better than working alone.
So this share cannot be easily split out. Now, a percentage point may be a huge profit of millions or tens of millions of dollars in the near future.
"We will carefully consider Dr. Clement's suggestion. I have to say that Dr. has put forward a very constructive intention today. I think that the two sides will achieve a strong alliance, which is obviously very beneficial to the development of the brain wave interface market. We will carefully discuss the doctor's suggestion. I want to give an answer tomorrow at the latest. Do you think it's okay?" Susanna said to Clement with a smile.
She decided to interrupt the original safe plan. With such a good opportunity, it would be no bad thing to launch the acquisition plan in advance.
Especially when I witnessed the simple process of Clement's transformation of the brain wave helmet, even Susanna, who doesn't know much about technology, knows that such excellent modular design will not be a problem at all. Now that I have an excellent acquisition opportunity to reconstruct the company's original crazy dream, how could Susanna let go of it?
After contacting Shu Ya and Selena, the two beauties seemed very excited after listening to the latest situation. Unexpectedly, Duke and Susanna had the opportunity to solve two big problems in one fell swoop this time.
"Ten percent can also be considered, but this is the upper limit. Since Clement has offered this price, we will definitely be sorry for him if we don't kill some of the price," Shu Ya said happily. The news is so good. Therefore, everyone talked very easily this time.
"But we shouldn't kill too hard. I mean, I'm going to issue an additional 8 million shares to acquire gmosystems, and another 2 million shares as options to recruit Dr. Clement. He was able to develop this brain-wave helmet, obviously a talent. We just lack such talents. If Dr. Clement can work in the company for more than 3 years, these two million shares will be fulfilled. What do you think of this plan?"
After being tossed by Shu Ya, 10% of Clement's new shares became 10 million shares, not to mention that it shrank to about 9%, and 2 million shares became the golden handcuffs that trapped Clement. If Clement could accept this plan, it would prove that Clement was really optimistic about Duke.
The next day, when Susanna gave up this plan, Clement thought about it for a while and nodded and agreed. Although this condition was slightly worse than what he proposed, since he was originally planning to show his skills at Duke, the restriction was not a problem for him.
"Come on, Dr. Duke, Miss Susanna, let's have a drink for the future sincere cooperation!" After signing the agreement, Clement held a special celebration party and invited colleagues from the company and Duke.
"Haha, Dr. Clement, we are a family now. Let's have a drink for a better tomorrow!" Susanna wore a black perspective black silk skirt tonight. The bright light shot her into the cocktail party without any dispute, and at the same time she became the main target of everyone's attack. Soon, Susanna became a little drunk.
"Duke, I really can't drink it anymore," Susanna said to Duke with drunken eyes. "Let's go back to the hotel." After that, Susanna leaned directly on Duke.
Seeing that Susanna was indeed a little drunk, Duke greeted Clement and helped Susanna out for the cocktail party. Fortunately, the place where they were eating was not far from the hotel, Duke just half hugged Susanna and walked towards the hotel.
Los Angeles is brightly lit under the night. Under the beautiful neon lights, Duke is in his arms, and the warm fragrance of soft jade is in his hands. From time to time, there is a faint fragrance that cannot be concealed by the smell of wine. Coupled with the rich trembling temptation that is faintly visible in Susanna's black silk perspective skirt, Duke has been very difficult for these hundreds of steps.
After finally getting to the hotel, Duke was already dry-mouthed. This job is really something that ordinary people can do.
Opening the door of Susanna's room, Duke helped Susanna to the edge of the bed, put Susanna on the bed, and was about to get up and go out, but Susanna grabbed Duke.
