Invincible Young Master in the City

76: Chapter 072 Receiving Shares 76: Chapter 072 Receiving Shares After six or seven minutes, He Jie finally gave in.

“Fine, eighty million it is.

However, I require the money after one month, and I want priority payment,” He Jie stated.

Li Zhaojun responded indifferently, “Agreed.”

Acquiring He Jie’s shares was like picking up a fortune off the ground.

Although the current stock price had drastically fallen, she was confident that once Huachang Investment Fund announced a 1.5 billion investment and initiated the Biomedical project, such significant positive news would definitely turn the situation around with a strong rebound.

By then, the stock price would unquestionably be much higher than before the drop.

This process would only take one month.

At that time, she would use the money obtained from the premium to pay He Jie the eighty million.

Thus, she would not only increase her shareholding by 4.5% but also make a tidy sum of money.

Thus, Li Zhaojun pulled up a blank electronic contract from her computer, added He Jie’s payment request in the remarks section, and then printed it.

Up to this point, aside from a few major shareholders, there had been several changes among the minor shareholders at Emali Group.

Therefore, as the chairman and CEO, she naturally had a stock transfer contract template stored in her computer.

Soon, the blank contract was printed.

Li Zhaojun handed it to He Jie, saying, “Take a look yourself.

If there’s no issue, you can sign it.”

The contract content was quite simple, and since it had been prepared in advance, there were virtually no traps.

After He Jie finished reading, he signed the contract.

Li Zhaojun also signed the contract in front of him, then handed one of the copies over to He Jie.

“Done, you have successfully sold your shares to me,” Li Zhaojun stated calmly.

“If there’s nothing else, please feel free to leave.”

Taking the contract, which bore not only his signature but also his thumbprint in red ink, He Jie chuckled bitterly and said, “Then, farewell, Director Li.”

Upon exiting Li Zhaojun’s office, he was no longer affiliated with Emali Group.

As he opened the door, he coincidentally saw Zhang Bingkun approaching from the other end of the corridor.

Zhang Bingkun paused in surprise upon seeing him.

As they drew closer, Zhang Bingkun asked, “Old He, what’s that document in your hand?”

His gaze was fixed on the contract in He Jie’s hands.

“A contract,” He Jie replied with a light smile, generously showing the share transfer contract to Zhang Bingkun.

Now that the fate of Emali Group was no longer his concern, he frankly didn’t care whether his actions were spreading panic.

Moreover, he harbored a rather dark thought: if Emali Group was forced to delist from the stock market and eventually went bankrupt, wouldn’t this prove his foresight?

Zhang Bingkun opened the contract and was instantly struck by the bold “Share Transfer” title.

He quickly reviewed the content, indeed finding that He Jie had transferred all his shares to Li Zhaojun.

Returning the contract to He Jie, Zhang Bingkun frowned, “Old He, your shares are worth more than two hundred million, how could you sell them to that woman, Li Zhaojun, for just eighty million?”

“Heh, that was the price half a year ago,” He Jie quipped, puffing up his cheeks, “Now, with the stock price having fallen so severely, do you really think they’re still worth that much?

In a few days, you might have to give them away for free.”

Zhang Bingkun replied, “Isn’t that an exaggeration?”

“It’s not an exaggeration.

Heh, Old Zhang, I dare say, Emali’s stocks will definitely hit the lower limit today!” He Jie sneered.

“This…

surely not,” Zhang Bingkun rebutted.

His tone lacked confidence.

“He Jie, the stock market is already in panic, with three consecutive limit-downs.

Which investor would dare to buy Emali’s stocks now?” He Jie said.

Zhang Bingkun shook his head, “Although the stock price has plummeted, the corporation itself still exists, its value remains, and it is still profitable.

The stock price doesn’t fully reflect the true value.”

“Hehe, do you know why I’m so eager to transfer my shares?” He Jie lowered his voice, pretending to be mysterious, “Isn’t it because I’m disappointed with the management of Emali Group?

Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan teamed up against Li Zhaojun, accomplishing nothing but internal strife, engaging in conspiracies and schemes, even using projects crucial to the corporation’s future as bargaining chips to plot against each other.

With such endless infighting in the team, do you think Emali Group can still develop?

It’ll go bankrupt sooner or later!”

Zhang Bingkun’s expression darkened, slightly annoyed, he said, “I don’t know what Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan are up to, fighting for power and profit, turning a fine corporation into this mess!

Damn it!”

“So, while it still worth something, better to get rid of it quickly.” He Jie said smugly, “Once I get the money, I’ll invest in other companies, choosing a more reliable company is the real deal.”

“Enough said, you decide for yourself.

I’m leaving, Emali Group has nothing to do with me anymore.” He added, “Whether it lives or dies, whether the internal strife continues, it has nothing to do with me.”

Having said that, he took the contract and left.

Zhang Bingkun stood there thinking for a while, finally, he went and knocked on Li Zhaojun’s office door.

“Come in.” A firm and clear voice came from inside.

After entering the office, Zhang Bingkun explained his purpose.

Li Zhaojun said expressionlessly, “The current difficulties faced by the group are only temporary; please keep your faith.

Only by working together can we get through this.”

“President Li, it’s not because of the group’s current difficulties that I want to transfer my shares, but because my family urgently needs a large sum of money.

I need this money to save a life!” Zhang Bingkun pretended.

Li Zhaojun despised him inwardly, the excuse the same as He Jie’s, devoid of any creativity.

“Do you have to transfer your shares?

Can we delay, wait until the group overcomes this crisis?” Li Zhaojun asked.

Zhang Bingkun gave a wry smile, “I’m really sorry.

It’s only because my family urgently needs a large sum of money that I must transfer my shares.

I hope President Li can understand.”

Li Zhaojun responded indifferently, “Okay.

You can also transfer your shares to me.

60 million, not a cent more.”

“Just 60 million!” Zhang Bingkun shook his head vigorously, “This is 4% of the shares, originally worth more than 180 million!

Besides, didn’t He Jie just sell for 80 million?

I have only 0.5% less than him, how can I be 20 million less?

That’s not fair.”

Li Zhaojun, expressionless, said, “You can try other shareholders or transfer in the secondary market, maybe you’ll get a better price.

However, I still hope you won’t transfer your shares easily and stay with Emali Group to overcome the difficulties together.”

“I’ll…

think about it.” Zhang Bingkun replied with a wry smile, planning to ask Gong Yongfu or Sun Yuan, perhaps they would offer more.

Li Zhaojun nodded slightly, “You can.

But let me say this beforehand, if you go out and come back to me, I may not be willing to buy your shares for 60 million anymore.

The risk I bear is already large.”

“You have ten minutes to decide.”

Having said that, she stood up, walked back to her desk, and continued working.

A few minutes later, Zhang Bingkun sighed deeply, “Fine, let it be 60 million.”

Thus, Li Zhaojun quickly acquired Zhang Bingkun’s shares.

By now, she had acquired 43.1% of Emali Group’s shares.

After extracting 100 million from the capital chain in the afternoon to repurchase stocks from City A, her proportion of shares would be even higher.

Moreover, tomorrow she planned to personally invest another 100 million to buy back stocks from the market.

By then, her shares would exceed 50%, making her the true, uncontested chairman of Emali Group.
