Lu Rang lowered his eyes and listened quietly.
Gao Hai was a little nervous, unsure of what he was thinking.
"I think it's perfectly normal for President Shang to have such concerns. After all, our company's business is completely unrelated to hers. Even if we bought the company and ran it, we wouldn't be able to run it as well as she has."
"It's profitable, but not by much. She has every reason to suspect my motives. It seems we need to think of another way..."
Before he could finish speaking, he felt a sharp gaze fixed on him.
Lu Rang's eyes held a hint of impatience. Although there was no aggression in them, they made Gao Hai break out in a cold sweat and sit up as if on pins and needles.
"I have completed the task you assigned me, now I can..."
Lu Rang's gaze was cold. "Get out."
Gao Hai ran away as fast as he could.
...
Meanwhile, the company was thrown into a panic as rumors spread that Shang Wu was going to sell the company, though no one knew who had leaked the information.
Immediately, several senior executives and shareholders kept coming to inquire about the situation, subtly and overtly signaling to Shang Wu not to act impulsively.
Shang Wu knew that the employees were also very concerned about these matters, so he simply convened a meeting of all employees at the ministerial level and above, and asked the managers of their respective departments to convey the message.
She explained that selling the company was not about treating everyone arbitrarily and taking them along with the company, but about finding a reliable boss to take over management.
This has no impact on their work, and the acquisition agreement also states that if the company's employees do not have any business problems, the new owner who takes over is not allowed to dismiss the employees without cause.
Finally, Shang Wu asked everyone to wait patiently, saying that she would find a good and reliable boss.
These words calmed everyone's anxiety and fear of losing their jobs after leaving the company.
But they still couldn't bear to let Shangwu leave.
Under Shang Wu's management, the company is already running smoothly. It seems that no matter which investor comes in, they could not manage it as well as Shang Wu.
Shang Wu knew what they were thinking, but she couldn't care less.
All she wanted to know was whether someone would actually acquire the group at a price she was looking for.
But Shang Wu waited until evening and still didn't receive a call from anyone.
Not even a single person bothered to inquire about the price.
Shang Wu had no choice but to call the partners who had previously expressed interest in acquiring the company.
Their attitude was very strange after hearing Shang Wu's purpose.
Various reasons followed.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shang, my wife is about to give birth, and I'm currently with her during the delivery, so I haven't been able to focus on the acquisitions."
“Raising funds is troublesome, and acquisitions are very energy-consuming for me, so I will not be making any acquisitions for the time being.”
"Mr. Shang, I'm so sorry, my son isn't feeling well and I'm taking care of him right now, so I can't make the acquisition. I'm sorry."
“I don’t want to buy your company. I don’t have that much money. Even if I managed to scrape together the funds, my life and the company would be in financial turmoil for a while.”
Their various excuses, though seemingly perfunctory, were so convincing that Shang Wuji couldn't find fault with them, yet he could tell they were doing it on purpose.
She couldn't help but feel frustrated, wondering why everyone's attitude had suddenly changed.
Did they know that Gao Hai was going to acquire the company at a price 10% higher, and they were worried that they couldn't compete with the price, and didn't want to be inflated to such a high price, so they gave up on their own?
Shang Wu was about to make another call when there was a sudden knock on the office door.
"Come in."
She put down her phone and saw A-Ying come in.
Aying had a faint smile on her face.
"The front desk just informed us that a client with an appointment has arrived in the room. That client is here to discuss their intention to acquire the company."
Shang Wu's eyes lit up as she listened, and she smiled, her anxious mood instantly calmed down.
"I'll go there right now."
It's rare for a customer to personally come to us for an acquisition; such sincerity alone demonstrates that he genuinely wants to acquire the group.
Shang Wu walked briskly, eager to get to her destination.
She went to the reception room and pushed the door open.
In front of the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, Lu Rang leaned against the sofa, his posture languid, his long legs crossed, and a tablet placed on his lap.
He casually swiped the screen with his fingertips, browsing financial news. He didn't look like a boss who was there to discuss cooperation or acquisition, but rather a boss waiting for his subordinates to report on their work.
Shang Wu's breath hitched, and she slowly clenched her fists, never expecting that he would appear at this moment.
Lu Rang wasn't here today with the intention of acquiring the property; he was probably just angry that she was trying to cause trouble.
Shang Wu slowly exhaled, raised her eyes to look at Lu Rang, who was sitting opposite her.
"I didn't expect Young Master Yu to grace us with his presence. I heard you're interested in acquiring my company? I'll sell it to you. If you wanted this company, you should have told me sooner, and I wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble to sell it off."
Shang Wu spoke calmly, with a slight smile on her face.
Upon hearing this, Lu Rang's deep eyes revealed a clear hint of disdain and indifference.
He closed the tablet and placed it on the table.
“You only have me as your buyer now. I even offered Gao Hai money to you for free, but you still wouldn’t give him the company. Now you’re just trying to curry favor with me and sell this company that’s stuck with you. What are you doing?”
Shang Wu slowly closed her hands on her knees, trying to maintain a calm demeanor.
She knew there was something fishy about Gao Hai's affair.
She smiled.
"Now that you're here, you must be very interested in acquiring my company. You already know the price I've offered. Do you want to buy it?"
