Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Chapter 40 Gambling Agreement

Chen Rongchang was not fooled by the cakes drawn by Yang Mo. After thinking for a moment, he said: "This is just the result under ideal conditions. If something goes wrong in the application and promotion of new technologies, the operation of Rongchang Iron Works will be even worse and it will be completely lost." Opportunity!"

Yang Mo smiled and said: "Zhiyuan Consulting can sign another supplementary gambling agreement with you!"

Chen Rongchang said in surprise: "Betting agreement? How to bet?"

Yang Mo replied: "Zhiyuan Consulting promises to complete the mass production of new high-strength alloy steel and quickly introduce it to the market in half a year. It also promises to ensure the compound annual growth rate of the new joint venture company during the five years from 1977 to 1982. No less than 40%. If it cannot be reached, Zhiyuan Consulting is willing to transfer 15% of the equity of the joint venture company to Rongchang Iron Works for free. If it is reached, Rongchang only needs to give 5% of the equity as a reward to Zhiyuan Consulting!"

Chen Rongchang thought about it for a while and found that this gambling agreement was a guaranteed profit-no-loss agreement for Rongchang, maintaining a compound growth rate of 40% per year. In five years, Zhiyuan Steel Company will reach the current size of 4 -5 times, what's the harm in awarding 5% of the equity of Zhiyuan Consulting Services Company?

If high growth cannot be realized, Rongchang can get back 15% of the equity of the new company. Although it is not enough to hold a controlling stake, given Rongchang's current situation, I am afraid this is the best result that can be obtained!

Thinking of this, Chen Rongchang made a decisive decision and immediately agreed to Yang Mo's proposal and urged the legal department to draft a draft merger agreement.

Lin Xi also rushed to Rongchang Iron Works after receiving a call from Yang Mo. During the process of reviewing the merger agreement, Lin Xi was not feeling well. How could she still play like this?

With just a piece of patent application document, he got 70% of the equity of Rongchang Iron Works with nothing?What’s even more incredible is that Chen Rongchang didn’t know what kind of ecstasy soup he ate, and it felt like he had won the Mark Six Lottery!

For a moment, Lin Xi felt that she had become an accomplice of Yang Mo, the "liar", and used her connections and professional knowledge to help him "deceive people" together.

Although she sympathized with Chen Rongchang from the bottom of her heart, Lin Xi still fulfilled the basic professional ethics of a lawyer. She reviewed the terms of the merger agreement word for word, and finally raised objections to the supplementary agreement, reminding Yang Mo that the terms of the supplementary agreement were very unfavorable to him, 40 % compound annual growth rate is basically an impossible task for a steel and metallurgical enterprise!

Seeing Yang Mo's confident expression, Lin Xi also felt the urge to punch him in the face. That face with the confident smile was really "annoying", and she didn't know where it came from. confidence!

As for Chen Rongchang, if he does not accept Yang Mo's merger conditions and insists on it for another six months at most, Rongchang Iron Works will not be able to escape the outcome of bankruptcy and liquidation. A dead horse will be treated as a living horse doctor. Even if he cannot turn the tide, there will be no loss. Seeing that he continues to Anyone from the Daquan Gang dares to beat him up, so he is probably not an ordinary person, so he happily accepted this seemingly unreasonable merger plan!

After the two parties signed formal legal documents, Yang Mo officially took over Rongchang Iron Works. Rongchang Iron Works' legal affairs team cooperated with Lin Xi to complete the equity change. After more than 20 years, Rongchang Iron Works was officially renamed: Zhiyuan Iron and Steel Company!

The first appointment announced by Yang Mo was to establish a safety and security department, with Lin Guohua as the chief to select personnel to organize a temporary factory protection team. He could imagine how the ghost guy who deliberately wanted to bankrupt Rongchang would do whatever it took to make Rongchang bankrupt once the news of the merger was announced. revenge!

What Yang Mo has to do is to race against time. He has to get out of financial difficulties and restore Rongchang's production and business order before Gui Lao reacts.

After accompanying Lin Xi out of the gate of Rongchang Iron Factory, Lin Xi looked at Yang Mo with a suspicious look on his face. Yang Mo smiled and said, "Do you feel that Chen Rongchang has been tricked by me?"

"Is not it?"

"If I told you that the actual commercial value of this high-strength alloy steel patent far exceeds its valuation in this merger and acquisition case, you would not believe it!"

"Of course I won't believe it. It's good if you don't deceive others. You would give such a huge advantage to Chen Rongchang, who you have never met before?"

Yang Mo smiled bitterly and said: "As long as I can get cash to buy Rongchang Iron Works, I will not discount the patent. It won't take long for you to find that Chen Rongchang is getting a huge advantage! Using a company that is on the verge of bankruptcy The factory was exchanged for 25% of the equity of Yang Mo, a steel company with great potential!"

Lin Xi's eyes widened and she asked in surprise: "Is everything you said true?"

Yang Mo shrugged: "When have I lied to you? But this is just the first step. There is still a long way to go before we can lead Rongchang Iron Works out of trouble!"

Lin Xi looked at the frowning Yang Mo and comforted her heart: "I will try my best to help you negotiate with West Kowloon Finance Company to get a debt extension, but there is little hope. You still have to make a repayment plan as soon as possible. Is there anything else that can help you?"

Yang Mo thought for a while and said: "I really need your and Kexin's help. I'm new here and I only have a few friends like you in Xiangjiang. Can you help me make appointments with some bank executives and charter kings?"

Lin Xi pondered for a while and then said: "It is not difficult to make an appointment with a few bank executives. The ship king is not something ordinary people can see!"

The key to Yang Mo's entire plan is to use the patent for marine steel to convince the chartered king to become a strategic investment partner. He is like a banner for Chinese businessmen. With his joining, whether it is to deal with those who set a trap to force Chen Rongchang to submit, Guys, just get a loan from the bank and all your problems will be solved!

If sufficient Chinese businessmen cannot be invited to invest in the company, the fate of Zhiyuan Steel Company will become uncertain again.

The steel company is an asset-heavy enterprise. Without smooth financing channels, it is difficult to gain a foothold in this industry. Yang Mo's plan B for financing not only requires the help of influential media, but also has a very long timeline. Among them There are many unpredictable unknown factors, but the two chains around the neck of Rongchang Iron Works may kill Zhiyuan Iron and Steel Company at any time!

After sending Lin Xi away, Yang Mo walked around the production workshop and found out clearly the process flow of high-strength alloy steel based on the existing equipment in the factory.

It is a long process for an influential technology patent to move from the laboratory to the factory assembly line. Only with mass production capabilities and stable technical parameters can this new technology officially have the basis for application and have commercial value.

Yang Mo understands this better than anyone else. He has experienced an era when production, academia, and research were severely disconnected. Major research institutes and university laboratories, with precious national R&D funds, often were the first to achieve new technological breakthroughs. Time spent sending their academic results to foreign academic journals for publication to obtain the so-called "influence factor", while ignoring patent applications and industrial production in application fields!

The bad consequences of this are that after the technology is clearly developed by oneself and published in an academic journal, the patent is registered by foreign patent trolls. When one wants to use the technology, one has to pay a huge patent licensing fee. …
