Finally, thanks to the continued efforts of Huasuan.com, Wowo.com's market share is just 1% away from meeting the listing requirements.
Zhang Yiming immediately contacted Xu Maodong.
"Mr. Xu, look, Wowo Group's market share is about to reach its target. Should we settle the last payment first?"
"Hey, Mr. Zhang, we agreed that the last payment would be given after the project was completed. Why are you asking for it ahead of time?"
"No, Mr. Xu, it's just that Lin Chen seems to have discovered something recently. He's asked me about your Wowo Group several times already. I feel like I need to make my escape now."
"Oh... I hope this won't cause any problems?"
"No, no, I just told him I was taking some annual leave to rest. He never refuses employees who ask for leave."
"And what about our market share?"
"Mr. Xu, as you've seen, Wowo Group's market share has been steadily increasing every day recently. I estimate that it will reach your target in another day or two."
Xu Maodong thought about it and agreed, but he hadn't originally intended to give out this last sum of money.
“Mr. Zhang, how about I transfer the money after it arrives? I’m still a little worried about it. Besides, even if you’re on vacation, the money will still be transferred to you right away, so it won’t be delayed.”
"Mr. Xu, you don't mean you don't want to pay this last bit of money, do you? Besides, can't you tell I'm on vacation? I'm planning to go abroad. If Lin Chen finds out and reports it to the police, all my domestic accounts will be frozen, and you won't be able to transfer the money to me."
"this……"
Seeing Xu Maodong hesitate, Zhang Yiming pretended to be angry and said, "Mr. Xu, let me tell you, if I don't receive this money today, I will immediately reduce the promotion coefficient of WowoTuan to the lowest level, and fight to the death, so that all your previous money will go down the drain."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Zhang, don't get agitated. I didn't say I wouldn't transfer the money to you. I'll arrange for someone to transfer the money to you right away."
"snort!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yiming breathed a sigh of relief. The last sentence was something Lin Chen had just taught him, and sure enough, Xu Maodong fell for it.
"Mr. Lin, Xu Maodong has agreed to transfer the money."
"Well, but this fat translator definitely won't pay up so easily. You should lower the promotion coefficient of WowoTuan first, so that his market share can't increase, and make him anxious."
"OK."
When Zhang Yiming returned, he lowered the promotion coefficient of Wowo Group by one level.
Lin Chen was right. Xu Maodong was indeed dragging his feet, planning to hold out for a couple more days. At this rate of growth, his market share might break 10% tomorrow.
Just then, the former advertising director, now the new CEO of Wowo Group, rushed in.
"Mr. Xu, something terrible has happened! Our Wowo Group's market share has started to drop."
The CEO handed the report on his phone to Xu Maodong.
"Um?"
Xu Maodong almost immediately realized that Zhang Yiming had lowered the promotion coefficient of Huasuan.com, which made him so angry that he threw his phone away.
CEO: This looks like my phone...
"Go and call the CFO here."
"Okay, Mr. Xu."
The CEO went and called the CFO over.
Xu Maodong asked, "How much money is left in our account?"
"Mr. Xu, is there still 230 million left?"
"If we take out 200 million, will the remaining 30 million be enough to support our listing?"
The CFO quickly did some mental calculations and replied, "Mr. Xu, it's enough, but if the IPO fails, we won't be able to pay next month's salaries."
"Huh? Shut your jinxed mouth, how could it possibly fail to go public?"
"Ah, right, right, it won't fail."
"Okay, since you say it won't fail, then give Zhang Yiming another 200 million, and then notify the listing team to prepare immediately."
CFO: ? ? ?
What do you mean I said it? I really thank you for sending such a big pot so quickly.
However, he didn't say anything, because he knew that if the IPO was successful, he would also reap great rewards. After all, these executives all had original shares, and although they weren't many, it was still a case of shared success.
So, following Xu Maodong's instructions, he immediately arranged to transfer the money to Zhang Yiming.
Xu Maodong and other financial directors messaged him saying the money had been transferred, so he immediately dialed Zhang Yiming's number.
"Mr. Zhang, please check your bank card balance. The money has already been transferred to you. Do you think it would be appropriate to restore the promotion coefficient for Wowo Group?"
"What? Someone tampered with your Wowo Group's promotion coefficient? I'll find out who it is and fire them immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Maodong cursed, "Zhang Yiming, you're a real dog, Lin Gou's dog."
Lin Chen: I really will thank you.
Sure enough, not long after, the CEO of Wowo Group came in again.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, our market share has started to grow again. Indeed, Mr. Xu is very capable."
Xu Maodong: Hmph, this is the power of money.
"Alright, hurry up and arrange the listing work. Once the market share is reached, start the listing process immediately."
"Okay, Mr. Xu."
Xu Maodong breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhang Yiming kept his promise; otherwise, he would have been preparing to send someone to ambush him.
On the second night, many people were watching WowoTuan's market share data. WowoTuan's data was the most accurate, followed by Huasuan.com's data. Lashou.com and Meituan's data were slightly less accurate, but they could still be estimated roughly.
Today, Huasuan.com is unusually working overtime.
Lin Chen and Zhang Yiming were in the office, staring intently at the data.
9.5%...
9.8%……
When the time reached 9.99%, Lin Chen sent messages to Wu Bo and Wang Xing.
"Get ready."
"receive."
"receive."
Finally, at 4 a.m., with the last group-buying order placed, Wowo Group's market share grew to 10%.
Wowo Group is also working overtime through the night.
"start!"
With Xu Maodong's order, the listing team immediately prepared various materials. Since they had already done the calculations once before, they were already very familiar with the process.
Once all the data is recalculated using the latest information, we can prepare for the market launch.
Zhang Yiming also called Xu Maodong.
"Mr. Xu, the transaction is complete. The rest is none of my business. I'm going to run away now."
"Haha, Mr. Zhang, I wish you all the best."
Then, Xu Maodong immediately sent Lin Chen a report email, which contained all the things that Zhang Yiming had to say at the club last time.
To be honest, Lin Chen was a little envious; he hadn't been there yet.
However, there's no rush. Since Zhang Yiming is so familiar with me, I'll ask him to secretly take me to inspect some projects next time.
Lin Chen opened the email Xu Maodong had sent him and turned the monitor toward Zhang Yiming.
“Mr. Zhang, you see, I told you this guy was a traitor. He betrayed you right away.”
