Chapter 978 I Don't Have that Much Money
But the most surprising thing is Chen Ping in the conference room.
From the beginning to the end, although Changping Supermarket Company of Pingyu Group also sent several professionals from the investment and mergers and acquisitions department, Chen Ping seemed to have always occupied an absolute dominant position among them. Those so-called professionals seemed to have only made some suggestions beside Chen Ping.
Although the demeanor and courage shown by Chen Ping were still quite different from those so-called negotiation experts, at least he was not inferior in momentum.
Chen Ping did not seem to feel uncomfortable in this scene of scheming and fighting.
Even Lu Zihao felt a little emotional about Chen Ping's performance.
If Chen Ping could become one of the descendants of the Lu family, it is possible that in a few years or even decades, the Lu family would be able to become one of the top hidden families, and would not have to rely on the Wang family of Demon City.
It's just a pity that such a talented young man is not only not a descendant of the Lu family, but has now become the opponent of the Lu family and the biggest enemy that Lu Zihao can't wait to defeat completely.
Many senior managers of Nianhua Supermarket Company have been mediating with representatives of Pingyu Group and Lu Family.
Both sides have been testing each other's bottom line. In this constant testing, the final bottom line of Pingyu Group and Lu Family has gradually become clear.
However, it must be said that although the professionals sent by Lu Family can be regarded as real negotiation experts, the professionalism of such business negotiations is only one aspect. The most important thing is to look at the mind and the mansion, and in these two aspects, Chen Ping is indeed a little different from ordinary people.
So after a long conversation, Nianhua Supermarket Company has roughly determined the real bottom line of Lu Family, which should be between 17 billion and 18 billion.
However, for the bottom line of Pingyu Group, these senior managers of Nianhua Supermarket Company have never tested it out. It's just that according to the meaning of Chen Ping, chairman of Pingyu Group, it seems that Pingyu Group does not intend to offer such a high price, but it has never given up, but has been constantly lobbying the senior management of Nianhua Supermarket Company.
The business negotiations between the three parties seemed peaceful, but this was a war without gunpowder, and Chen Ping's performance in this war was indeed remarkable.
However, even so, as Du Nianhua said before, there was only one factor to consider when Nianhua Supermarket would be sold to, that is, the one with the highest bidder. If Pingyu Group could not come up with more funds, I am afraid that Nianhua Supermarket would really fall into the hands of the Lu family in Modu City.
However, from beginning to end, Chen Ping did not seem to be anxious at all. Instead, he looked at Lu Zihao, the head of the Lu family in Modu City from time to time, with a smile on his face.
Although Lu Zihao felt a little bad in his heart, he could not figure out why Chen Ping reacted like this, and could only observe Chen Ping's every move silently.
At the end, Lu Zihao, who had been silent and had not really participated in the negotiation process, suddenly smiled and said: "Chairman Chen, since the other two hidden families have no intention of really taking action, that is to say, in the matter of acquiring Nianhua Supermarket Company, only the two of us are the real competitors. Since there are only the two of us, I think there is no need to hide some things. I can directly tell you the bottom line of our Lu family. If Pingyu Group can offer a higher price, then our Lu family can naturally withdraw from this fight directly. There is no need to continue wasting time here."
Lu Zihao's words actually seemed extremely unprofessional in the eyes of many negotiation experts present. However, they have different identities and naturally have different perspectives when considering issues.
Lu Zihao is not thinking about fighting for the acquisition price of several hundred million yuan now, but wants to cut the Gordian knot and not give Chen Ping any chance to fight back, because the longer the time drags on, the more uneasy Lu Zihao feels.
He doesn't want an acquisition operation that was originally sure to win to suddenly appear beyond his control due to various accidents. Even if it costs several hundred million yuan more, Lu Zihao will not hesitate.
Although Lu Zihao's attitude was somewhat unexpected, everyone was used to it.
However, at this moment, Chen Ping, who had never spoken to Lu Zihao, suddenly turned around and looked at him in surprise.
Previously, Chen Ping had been communicating with people from Lianhua Supermarket Company and had never spoken a word to Lu Zihao. However, since Lu Zihao had taken the initiative to speak, Chen Ping turned his head and looked over, then smiled and said, "Since the head of the Lu family has said so, I will naturally obey your orders. I wonder what the bottom line price that the head of the Lu family can give is?"
Lu Zihao pondered for a moment, and did not seem to have too many concerns. He just smiled calmly and said, "The bottom line of our Lu family is 18 billion. In other words, as long as Chairman Chen can give a higher price, our Lu family will completely withdraw from this acquisition bid."
Hearing Lu Zihao's words, Chen Ping immediately laughed, and then shook his head gently, and said with a helpless chuckle, "This is 18 billion. Our Pingyu Group does not have the strength to come up with so much liquidity. At most, we can only come up with 16 billion."
Hearing Chen Ping's words, Lu Zihao was relieved immediately, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
In his opinion, since Chen Ping had already admitted that he could not come up with so much money, it meant that the battle between the two sides that lasted for several hours was finally settled, and he was still the winner in the end.
However, what Lu Zihao did not expect was that Chen Ping only paused for a moment, then chuckled and said: "Although our Pingyu Group cannot come up with so much money, I am very curious, can the Lu family come up with so much money?"
Hearing Chen Ping's words, everyone in the conference room was stunned at the same time, and many people looked at Chen Ping in surprise, their eyes full of doubts.
Especially the representatives of the other two hidden families who had not participated in it, looked at each other in bewilderment, and looked confused.
The reason is very simple. 18 billion yuan of funds is not a small number in the eyes of ordinary people, even in the eyes of some large group companies. Even for those large group companies with assets of hundreds of billions, it is not so easy to easily come up with 18 billion yuan of working capital.
Pingyu Group has a special nature, so it can always come up with a large amount of funds. This is actually related to Chen Ping's original layout.
As for other large group companies, although many group companies have overall assets of hundreds of billions, the amount of working capital that can be taken out at any time may not even reach 10 billion yuan.
However, hidden families are different, especially medium-sized hidden families like the Lu family. Although the Lu family is only in the middle and lower reaches of the ranks of hidden families, as a hidden family, the biggest difference between it and ordinary group companies is not only the management model between the two parties, but most importantly, the hidden family holds cards that ordinary group companies cannot imagine.
Such a trump card is a huge flow of funds in most cases. As one of the medium-sized hidden families, the Lu family seems to have a total asset of just over 100 billion yuan. However, in fact, if the foundation in the hands of the Lu family is counted, the total assets of the entire Lu family may even be close to 200 billion yuan.
This means that the Lu family has at least hundreds of billions of liquid funds on hand.
So I am afraid that no one in the entire Demon City will believe that the Lu family cannot come up with this money, but Chen Ping raised such a doubt, which immediately made everyone confused.
However, at this time, Chen Ping smiled and suddenly raised his hand. Nie Wei behind Chen Ping immediately stepped forward and put the folder he had been holding in his arms in front of Chen Ping.
There were two files in this folder. After Chen Ping took out the two files, he placed them neatly in front of him. Then he chuckled and pressed on one of the files. He tapped the cover of the file with his fingers. He looked at Lu Zihao with a smile and said casually: "If it was a few days ago, I might not have any doubts about whether the Lu family could come up with this money. However, for such a long time, since our Pingyu Group has been confronting the Lu family head-on, we have already become opponents. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles, so I have been investigating the situation inside the Lu family."
"Fortunately, the Lu family is not a monolithic entity, so during the investigation, I also found some very interesting things. Chairman Du, I wonder if you are interested in studying this file carefully?"
As he said, Chen Ping suddenly pushed the file he was pressing outward, crossed a distance of several meters on the conference table, and stopped very accurately in front of Du Nianhua, the current chairman of Nianhua Supermarket Company, not far away.
This precise control of strength surprised many ordinary people present, but they all knew that Chen Ping was no longer a simple ordinary person.
Chen Ping is now one of the ancient martial arts practitioners, and it was not unexpected for him to show such a skill.
However, if this scene was seen by people in the ancient martial arts practice world, especially those who knew Chen Ping, they would be extremely shocked.
Because just now, although Chen Ping only made an action to push the file out, he did use his ancient martial arts practitioner's strength.
The aura fluctuations of the yellow-level ancient martial arts practitioners are very obscure and not obvious, so it is difficult to accurately judge the specific level before taking action.
However, since Chen Ping has already taken action just now, any ancient martial arts practitioner of a higher level can judge that Chen Ping's current strength level should be at the peak of the fourth level of the yellow level.
However, the problem is that not long ago, Chen Ping was just an ordinary person. It has been less than two months since he started practicing.
In such a short period of time, Chen Ping has actually reached the peak of the fourth level of the yellow grade. Moreover, more than half a month ago, when Ouyang Guanhai and others saw Chen Ping, Chen Ping was only at the peak of the second level of the yellow grade.
In just over half a month, Chen Ping's strength has improved by two levels. I'm afraid any ancient martial arts practitioner would be surprised by such a breakthrough speed.
After all, Chen Ping is already quite old and has long missed the best time to practice. How could he have such a rapid breakthrough speed like those young geniuses in the ancient martial arts practice families?
