172: Chapter 172 Acquisition Contract

One had to know, Shen Yan was the founder of the company.

To suggest keeping Shen Yan in the company as just a team leader for a project group—wasn't that an insult to Shen Yan?

Shen Yan could hear it, but he wasn't angered.

Because he knew that soon, Wang Tian would have to pay the price for these words.

"Heh heh, is that so?"

"My feelings differ from yours, President Wang. Actually, I'm quite fortunate. If it weren't for your, the other shareholders', and Chen Ling's strong support, I wouldn't have awakened and decided to strike out on my own."

"To be honest, working alone is indeed great. Not only do I keep all the money myself, but I also don't have any useless trash constantly nagging in my ear."

With every sentence he spoke, Wang Tian's expression grew uglier.

By the time he heard the last four words, 'useless trash,' Wang Tian's face was as bleak as if his family members had died.

"President Shen, what you're saying is a bit tasteless, isn't it?"

As the words fell.

Shen Yan raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise.

"Oh? How is that tasteless?"

Wang Tian closed his eyes and took a deep breath, preventing himself from experiencing overly intense emotional fluctuations.

"Shen Yan, I don't want to waste time with pleasantries. Just tell me directly, what is the matter you need me for?"

Seeing that he had started addressing him by his full name, Shen Yan stopped pretending and told him directly: "What I need you for is simple. I want Fuchen Enterprise."

Hearing this, Wang Tian's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

"What did you say?!"

Fearing he still hadn't heard clearly, Shen Yan replied word by word: "I, said, I, want, Fuchen, Enterprise!"

Wang Tian's mouth gaped open. After a long stunned silence, he burst out laughing, clutching his stomach.

"Hahahaha, Shen Yan, oh Shen Yan, are you seeing that I've been in a bad mood lately and specifically came here to tell me a joke?"

"I must say, your ability to tell jokes really rivals your professional skills. Come, come, I'll transfer you some money, consider it payment for listening to your joke."

Wang Tian said while picking up his phone, acting as if he was genuinely about to transfer money.

"President Wang, please don't be so quick to deny me."

"You haven't even asked how much I plan to pay to buy Fuchen Enterprise yet."

Money?

Wang Tian put down his phone, the smile vanishing from his face, and said seriously to Shen Yan: "How much do you plan to offer for Fuchen Enterprise?"

Shen Yan rested his chin on his hand and asked back: "How much do you want?"

Hearing this, Wang Tian couldn't help but swallow hard.

Originally, he had planned to quietly transfer all of Fuchen Enterprise's funds while the company could still hold on for a while.

But because Fuchen Enterprise was already at its end, he couldn't squeeze much money out of it.

Since Shen Yan was willing to deliver himself to his doorstep at this time to offer him more money, why would he refuse?

Thinking this, he pretended to be calm and threw out a huge figure.

"One hundred million."

Actually, as long as the price Shen Yan named wasn't less than fifty million, he would have accepted it.

The reason he quoted such a high price was simply because he was certain Shen Yan would haggle with him.

"Fine, one hundred million it is."

Unexpectedly, Shen Yan agreed very readily.

Seeing how readily he agreed, Wang Tian instantly felt a pang of heartache.

He thought: If I had known Shen Yan was this rich now, I should have named an even higher price! No! He must raise the price again.

Thinking this, he raised his eyelids and unhesitatingly went back on his word:

"I just said one hundred million, but I've changed my mind now. I want three hundred million."

"Deal."

This time, Shen Yan still agreed decisively.

Seeing that he agreed so readily again, Wang Tian's greed slowly began to swell.

"How about five hundred million?"

"Can do."

"Seven hundred million! This will be my final negotiation. As long as you agree to seven hundred million, I will immediately sign the contract with you right here and now! Get lost!"

Shen Yan chuckled lightly: "Seven hundred million... Your price is indeed a bit high, but..."

He deliberately drew out the final syllable, hooking Wang Tian's appetite.

"But I really want this company, so seven hundred million, I agree."

Hearing his agreement, Wang Tian's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, covered with red veins. He shouted ecstatically: "I'll have my secretary prepare the contract right now. Are you planning to transfer the funds in person at the Bank or..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Yan stood up, patted Wang Tian's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Why the rush? You agreed, but the other shareholders haven't agreed."

"What if the other shareholders disagree? Wouldn't I leave empty-handed?"

These two sentences were like a basin of cold water, instantly waking Wang Tian up.

That's right!

This company didn't belong to him alone; it belonged to him and the other shareholders.

He couldn't make the decision himself to transfer the company directly to Shen Yan.

Thinking of this, he took a few deep breaths, stabilized his emotions, and allowed his wildly fluctuating mood to return to normal.

"President Shen, you are right. How about this, I will contact the other shareholders and ask if they are willing."

Shen Yan smiled and nodded: "Good."

As soon as the words fell.

Wang Tian took out his phone, stood up, and walked to the side, beginning to pretend to make a call.

That's right, he was pretending.

He was someone who was about to abscond; why would he share this seven hundred million with others?

He wasn't a fool!

"Hello? Hey, hey! It's me. I have something I want to discuss with you."

"It's like this, President Shen Yan said he wants to acquire our company for seven hundred million. What do you think?"

"Yes, yes, no problem, leave it all to me, rest assured!"

After exchanging a few words with the air, Wang Tian hung up the phone and walked back to sit opposite Shen Yan.

"I've already talked to all of them. They all agreed and entrusted this matter to me to handle. When do you expect the funds to arrive?"

Shen Yan replied with a serious expression: "Seven hundred million is quite a sum. It will take at least a week to arrive."

Hearing this, Wang Tian frowned.

A week was too long. He was afraid those shareholders would discover something was wrong.

"President Shen, why don't you check with the Bank to see if they can release those funds immediately? If any documents are needed, I can cooperate."

Shen Yan nodded again.

"Alright. Since you are willing to cooperate, I believe the Bank will definitely release the funds quickly. Let me think... It should only take about a day, arriving in less than twenty-four hours."

Hearing this, Wang Tian was overjoyed, feeling that he was about to return to glory.

"Yes, yes, no problem! I'll have the secretary draw up the contract right now!"

Saying that, he scurried outside with small, quick steps, hastily asking the secretary to bring over an acquisition contract.

The acquisition contract was a template.

To prevent Shen Yan from being dissatisfied, as soon as Wang Tian received the acquisition contract, he handed it to Shen Yan, asking him to propose any modifications.
