"Since the work of the coastal power plant has been straightened out, it is time for us to start equity reform..."

In the office, Arthur smiled and looked at Angela and Corinna sitting opposite each other, and gently tapped his desk with his fingers and continued to smile: "I believe the outside world has received the news that we are promoting the listing of the power plant. It is time to release some equity to attract some investors."

"So, boss, how much valuation are you going to release? "Ceo Corinna, who is the power plant, asked with great concern.

"Let's take the initial construction scale of 750 million pounds as the benchmark. I only leave 50% of the equity, 20% of the equity, and 30% of the equity left. Except for 5% of the equity left for internal digestion of the power plant, the remaining 25% will be used for sale."

Arthur told the plan he had already thought of. Although his plan was a bit of a matter of course. After all, he had just spent 400 million pounds to acquire the power plant. In a blink of an eye, it was still less than a month before, and he was going to attract investors with a double appreciation price. It was simply grabbing money. I am afraid that when the news was released, he would become the target of ridicule.

You will definitely be ridiculed as a fool who is crazy about money!

That's right, Arthur just thought about money and was crazy, but he definitely believed that someone would be willing to pay the money to be a sucker.

Just as Arthur imagined, when he heard the numbers he quoted, Corinna was speechless. Does the boss want to sell equity at this price? This price will undoubtedly scare away sincere investors. Nothing else, it is too expensive!

"Boss, is this price..."

"It's too expensive?" Before Colina finished speaking, Arthur asked with a smile, looking at Corinna who looked puzzled and nodded, but did not wait for Corinna to continue asking questions. Arthur looked at Angie on the side and smiled, "Do you think it's expensive?"

Angela smiled and shook her head, glanced at Corinna who was full of doubt, and said to Arthur: "This valuation is a normal valuation. With the recovery of major economies in the world, high-quality assets that were undervalued for various reasons will usher in a rebound explosion period.

The scale valuation at the time of building the factory is not a problem, and investors who are really interested will not care. Instead, only 25% of the equity sold outside may not satisfy the appetite of some people."

"I have no choice at this point. I have to hold an absolute half. I don't want to be occupied by someone and finally kicked out by those investors. Therefore, the absolute controlling rights are fundamentally the case, and there is no need to discuss this matter!"

Arthur looked serious and sharp, and looked at Angela and Corinna, and said firmly.

The game between founders and capital is not a topic, and many founders of well-known global companies have not escaped the fate of being kicked out of capital.

Many entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs will face the result of dilution of equity or even being kicked out by investors when they need to use external capital to expand their scale. For the founders of companies or products, the saddest thing is to be swept out by their own companies.

Angela and Corinna looked at each other and fully understood the concerns of the young boss. After all, entrepreneur Yu used capital to grow and grow the company, and capital may also use loopholes in the equity structure to eliminate the founder. The two are both cooperative relationships and games.

However, as the head of an enterprise, how to define one's role when the enterprise develops to a certain stage and how to properly have the right to speak and make decisions is not in place for most entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs.

If a startup company wants to expand and develop rapidly, it must introduce capital. As long as it raises funds, it will inevitably dilute the founder's control over the company. This is also a fact and price that entrepreneurs must accept.

Especially companies like Coast Power Plant, which have just been acquired, are eager to carry out equity reforms and strive for listing. In addition, the boss is so young, once the financing starts, they may introduce a group of hungry wolves. If they cannot take the absolute initiative and be swallowed up by sharing, it is not impossible.

Arthur, who knows these disadvantages, naturally would not make such fatal mistakes. As long as he holds absolute half of the equity, no one can make a fortune!

"At this energy industry reception tonight, in addition to local energy companies in the UK, some investment companies in other countries will also attend, especially the investment institutions in China, Australia and Canada, which are very interested in the UK's energy and basic industries, will be present.

Perhaps we can reveal the news in advance and see their reactions. To be honest, time is indeed too hasty, which makes us lose a lot of preparation time. Once we enter the negotiating table, if we want to promote a cooperation agreement, we will inevitably need to make concessions." Angela looked at Arthur with a trembling brow and said helplessly.

"It is normal to make concessions in business and make concessions in terms of price. The valuation of 750 million pounds is just what we think of, and naturally we will not recognize others. However, even 600 million pounds are a business that is stable and profitable for us. In this way, our investor Barclays will also let go of our worries and concerns."

For the coastal power plant that was originally obtained by borrowing chickens to lay eggs, Arthur regarded it more as a prying board and used a series of operations to leverage his ambitions in the energy industry.

"I understand." After understanding the young boss's meaning, Angela and Corinna nodded at the same time.

"Angela, is there any new trends in the Muzi family consortium in Herijiang that I asked you to pay attention to?" Arthur's mind immediately flashed the Muzi rich man who was "just a businessman".

"Boss, the results of the investigation are really as you guessed. If our acquisition was not fast enough and we had signed a letter of intent with the original Coast Power Plant, we might have encountered this Muzi family consortium as a competitor. The Feldspar Group, which belongs to their family, really had the idea of ​​taking over the 49% stake in the Coast Power Plant.

But when we started, they just had a meeting to study. Immediately after we announced the full acquisition of the coastal power plant, they did not seem to have given up. They called to consult the coastal power plant." Angela said, turning her eyes to Corinna on the side.

"I did have consulting, but at the beginning, all the focus and energy of the company was devoted to your negotiation team, the boss, and I did not pay attention to it. I thought I was just trying to find out about business news." Corinna explained.

"Yeah." Arthur nodded with a serious expression. This time he was lucky. He did not meet the wealthy Muzicheng, otherwise he would have been crushed. However, knowing that Muzicheng would buy almost half of the UK in the future. As long as Arthur's energy plan remains unchanged, it would be almost impossible to meet it sooner or later.

"Will people from Feldspar Group attend tonight's cocktail party?"

"...I really don't know this." Corinna glanced at Angela, saw Angela shaking her head, and then spoke.

"Ask clearly." Arthur looked at Corinna and said.
Chapter completed!
