"I don't know either."
"I can't understand their strange behavior. Are they all crazy?"
Zhou Xiaoli couldn't figure out what these six shareholders were trying to do. Their actions were completely illogical and incomprehensible.
Unless, of course, their actions are purely intended to upset everyone.
"You know what, their actions, besides making everyone feel annoyed, really don't seem to do any good."
"Even the other shareholders probably wouldn't have the idea of buying back their shares at a valuation of one billion."
"So what's the real point of all this commotion?"
"Could it be that they're trying to complicate the company's situation and disrupt our next round of financing plans before Sequoia Capital invests?"
After pondering for a while, Ye Kai suddenly had a sense of enlightenment.
He seemed to have grasped a clue, but it wasn't very clear.
"Disrupting the financing plan?"
—
"Let me find out what's new on the investment banking front first—"
Zhou Xiaoli was inspired by what she heard.
She quickly ended the call with Ye Kai and then began asking around for information.
Disturbed by her, Ye Kai couldn't think about opening a milk tea shop for a moment. Instead, he started to think about where he should raise money if he had to take over the shares from the six shareholders.
Frankly speaking, even if Green Energy Core Power's shares are valued at one billion, it's not too outrageous.
Although Ye Kai hoped to acquire the 17% stake at the original valuation, everyone knew that was impossible.
The six shareholders insisted on selling their shares at a valuation of one billion, clearly aiming to cause trouble for Green Energy Core Power and prevent the company from successfully completing its financing plan with Sequoia Capital.
Once investment banks understand the numerous contradictions surrounding Green Energy Core Power, even if they are very optimistic about the company's future development, they will not consider financing plans in the short term. This is probably the real purpose of those shareholders.
The real reason behind this is most likely because they need to operate another similar company to complete a financing plan, from which the profits are enormous, so they have to interrupt Green Energy Core Power's financing plan.
When there is only one new energy power battery company in the market that needs financing and has a high value, investment banks will naturally flock to it and raise its valuation.
However, if there are two or more such companies, it will create a more intense competitive relationship, allowing investment banks to target multiple companies and seek more cost-effective financing opportunities.
"Looks like I'll need to have some cash on me."
"Otherwise, even if there is a chance to make money right in front of you, you won't be able to seize it in time."
After figuring this out, Ye Kai sighed with emotion.
He currently possesses assets worth approximately 160 billion yuan, but these are all shares in listed companies, making them difficult to sell quickly.
Especially among those dozen or so listed companies, most of them are unicorn companies with excellent development potential, and their stock value may continue to rise in the future. Selling them now would be very unwise.
Raising enough funds to buy back the shares held by the six shareholders will not be so easy.
However, when Ye Kai was looking through the shareholding information in his hand, he noticed one of the companies, [Yongkuan Medical].
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Kai's eyes suddenly lit up.
"dad."
"Do me a favor."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xiaoli immediately found Zhou Weitong, hugged his arm, and started to act coquettishly.
"What's going on?"
Zhou Weitong rarely saw his daughter like this, so he smiled and asked.
"Could you ask around for me? Are there any investment banks planning to provide financing for new energy power battery companies recently?"
Zhou Xiaoli explained her company's situation to Zhou Weitong and then made her demands.
"That does sound rather unusual."
"I'll make a few calls for you and find out the details."
After hearing this, Zhou Weitong also felt that the behavior of those shareholders was unreasonable, so he began to inquire about information for her.
Based on his experience, Zhou Weitong also felt that the actions of those shareholders were highly suspicious, and it was very likely that they were trying to block the investment bank's financing plan for Green Energy Core Power.
But very few people would do something that hurts others a thousand while harming themselves eight hundred.
If someone actually does that, it means they can make more money from other sources.
"Daughter, that's true."
"I heard that a new company has recently emerged, whose main business is also new energy power batteries. It is currently in talks with IDG Capital and Hillhouse Capital for financing, and it seems to be playing a pretty big game."
"It is said that they also extended a fundraising invitation to Sequoia Capital."
"I obtained a list of their major shareholders, as well as information such as their shareholding percentages."
Zhou Weitong did indeed have a wide network of connections, and he quickly obtained the information he wanted.
"Just as I thought!"
"It seems that those individuals hold a much larger stake over there, and their interests are more intertwined!"
After reading the information her father, Zhou Weitong, had obtained, Zhou Xiaoli immediately confirmed this.
Although only one of the six shareholders is on the list, the shareholding ratio is extremely high, and according to the valuation target they insisted on during the negotiations, it is far higher than that of Green Energy Core Power.
Based on this calculation, blocking Green Energy Core Power's financing is to ensure that their newly established company can obtain more secure financing.
As for Green Energy Core Power, they won't lose much profit either.
After all, they were well aware of Green Energy Core Power's true strength; a valuation of one billion was definitely achievable, once their company had swindled the money—
Once the funding is secured, there will be no impact on how things are handled later.
So Zhou Xiaoli immediately called Ye Kai to explain the information she had received.
What is the name of that company?
Ye Kai asked a question over the phone.
"Concrete New Momentum"
Zhou Xiaoli replied.
"good!"
"Now contact everyone and prepare to convene a board meeting!"
Ye Kai nodded, then gave instructions to Zhou Xiaoli.
"What's the theme?"
The major shareholder proposed convening a board meeting, which was naturally no problem. Zhou Xiaoli immediately nodded in agreement and then asked Ye Kai about the meeting's topic.
"It's about the share buyback issue for those six shareholders; I can pay for it."
Ye Kai replied.
"Are you crazy?"
"Based on a valuation of one billion, that's 1.7 million in funds. Do you have that much cash on hand?"
Zhou Xiaoli was shocked upon hearing this.
The six shareholders had very clear demands: they not only required a high valuation, but also only accepted cash acquisitions.
"I'm willing to give it to them as long as they dare to ask."
Ye Kai answered in this way on the phone.
