358: Chapter 358 Excellent Value for Money
Shen Yan did not expect the first thing the Employees would say to him was that sentence. He was stunned for a moment before he couldn't help but chuckle, "I do intend to acquire your company, but I'm not a sucker."
Hearing this, the Employee's face immediately turned red.
"I-I'm sorry, I accidentally said what was on my mind..."
Shen Yan: "..."
That sentence wasn't any better than the one just now. Thanks.
He took a deep breath and turned to Pan Shali, "Aren't you going to introduce me to your Employees?"
Pan Shali nodded and replied, "This one wearing this outfit is Bai Liang. You can call him Xiao Bai or Xiao Liang."
"This one wearing the black outfit is Huang Ting. You can just call him Old Huang."
After listening, Shen Yan nodded to the two Employees and greeted them one by one.
"Hello everyone. I do plan to acquire your company, but your boss said he wants to discuss it with you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Bai directly interrupted Shen Yan. He turned to Pan Shali and asked, "It's rare to have a sucker... I mean, a boss come to acquire our company, what are you still hesitating for?!"
Pan Shali, looking slightly awkward, pulled his two Employees aside and whispered, "It's not that I want to hesitate; it's that he wants to make some changes to our game."
"This game was made by all of us; I can't make the final call alone, so I wanted to ask for your opinions."
Hearing this, Old Huang asked Pan Shali, "What changes does he want to make?"
Pan Shali told the two of them everything Shen Yan had just told him.
After listening, both of them felt the matter was within their acceptable range.
"I think it's fine. After all, if we don't agree to him, our game will have to shut down."
After receiving unanimous agreement from the two, Pan Shali turned and walked back to Shen Yan, saying, "We all accept the conditions. As for the acquisition..."
Before he could finish, Shen Yan preemptively asked Pan Shali, "How much are you willing to sell for?"
Pan Shali hesitated for a while before replying, "Eight hundred thousand? If you think the price is too high, I can give you another 20% off."
Shen Yan looked at Pan Shali in disbelief.
"Are you sure you'll sell it to me for eight hundred thousand?"
Pan Shali was momentarily stunned and replied, "Didn't we agree? You keep the three of us to continue development in the company, and I'll sell it to you cheaply for a few hundred thousand."
Although Shen Yan was a businessman, he still had a conscience.
He couldn't bring himself to buy a game and a company worth hundreds of millions for just a few hundred thousand.
Therefore, he finally decided to add four hundred thousand to buy the game company.
"One point two million to buy your company and the three of you. How about that?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the three instantly turned to horror.
"Are you planning to stop paying us wages from now on?!"
Shen Yan: "..."
How were the minds of these three talents structured?
They were even more dense than Jiang Yuan!
Thinking this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and say to the three, "Don't worry, your future salaries will still be paid. As long as you stay in this company for one day, I won't let you lack your salary."
"As for how much your salary is, I will pay you monthly according to market rates. As for the acquisition funds... I will have the Finance Department transfer them to you after the contract is signed."
As his words fell,
The three collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
The difficult time of starting a business had made them long for the days when they could receive a monthly salary while working.
Now that things were back on track, their hearts naturally settled down.
"Okay, so when do we sign the contract?"
Hearing the question, Shen Yan suddenly remembered he hadn't communicated with Chen Guangke yet.
Just as he was about to take out his phone to call Chen Guangke and ask him to prepare an acquisition contract to send over, Chen Guangke sent him a document.
He opened it and found it was the task he had assigned to Chen Guangke earlier that day.
The task was to investigate Ruan Ruan Game Co., Ltd.
Looking at the very detailed investigation report on his phone, Shen Yan somewhat guiltily sent a message to Chen Guangke.
["Are you free right now? Can you help me draft an acquisition contract?"]
Chen Guangke replied to his message instantly.
["Acquisition contract for which company?"]
Shen Yan replied with a few brief words.
["Ruan Ruan Game Co., Ltd."]
The next second, his phone rang.
Waiting nervously for a few seconds, he slid his finger to answer the call.
"Old Chen..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Guangke's roar pierced through his phone.
"Shen, are you sick in the head? Since you've already decided to acquire, what are you having me investigate for?!"
Shen Yan knew he was in the wrong about this matter.
He truly hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.
That the acquisition could be settled so smoothly right from the start.
He pursed his lips and said to Chen Guangke, "I didn't think this through. Can I treat you to dinner tonight?"
Chen Guangke was already so angry he was speaking without thinking.
"Treat me to dinner? How about I treat you to a fart?!"
"Right now, the company is busy with Gu Hui's project and developing software. Where do we have the money or time to acquire another company?!"
"I won't help you draft the acquisition contract, and don't even think about doing any acquisitions. Hurry back and do the work you're supposed to be doing!"
It wasn't until Chen Guangke finished speaking in one breath that Shen Yan said to him, "Don't worry, I have it under control. This acquisition won't cost much, only one point two million."
Chen Guangke: "One point two million is still too much. Do you know how much one point two... What? It only costs one point two million?"
Shen Yan replied with a smile, "That's right, it only costs one point two million. Not only can we acquire a game company, but we can also get a perfectly completed game for free."
"This deal is extremely worthwhile. You wouldn't want to miss out on it."
Chen Guangke fell silent.
After a while, Chen Guangke replied, "I will send you the acquisition contract in half an hour. Remember to send me the company information."
Shen Yan knew Chen Guangke had compromised.
He smiled and replied to Chen Guangke, "Okay, no problem."
He hung up the phone.
He turned to look at the three people in front of him.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Hearing Shen Yan's question, Pan Shali rubbed his nose and asked, "The person who called you just now, is he your investor?"
Shen Yan shook his head and asked doubtfully.
"No, why would you say that?"
Pan Shali and the other two Employees exchanged glances.
"Aren't you the boss already? How can an Employee dare to yell at you like that?"
Shen Yan understood that they had heard Chen Guangke's roar on the phone. He curled his lips and explained to the three, "Strictly speaking, he is not my Employee. He is my good brother and partner."
