From the prototype, immortal - Chapter 1364
Tony found his good friend Rod and wanted to use him to recover the shares of Stark Industries, only to find out that the military shares he wanted had been acquired by someone.
“Tony, has something happened to Stark Industries?”
Rod asked Tony with concern.
The stock market of Stark Industries has been very exciting recently.
Like a roller coaster, many stockholders and shareholders could not stand the excitement and chose to sell and cash out.
Rod knew what the fluctuations in the stock market meant to a company.
If the stock price continued to fall, it would not only damage the company’s image, but also cause the company’s market value to shrink significantly, which would in turn affect the company’s financing ability and business expansion.
“It doesn’t matter, I can solve it.”
Tony said with a headache.
The military shares have been acquired by a mysterious person. Tony has calculated and estimated the approximate shareholding ratio of the mysterious person, which made him a little scared. The situation he created was actually cheap for outsiders.
So he had to stop this acquisition behavior and operation and convene a board of directors. He wanted to see who snapped up so many shares.
As the two stopped their crazy buying and acquisition, Stark Industries’ stock market returned to stability and maintained a sluggish trend. It rose a little, and then there was nothing else.
All shareholders must be present at the board of directors. Tony’s final shareholding ratio was 39%. He speculated that the mysterious man’s shareholding ratio had reached 30%.
All major shareholders arrived, but there were actually not many left. There were too many people selling and cashing out. The number of people on the board of directors of Stark Industries was not large. A single person must hold a shareholding ratio of no less than 1% to participate in the board of directors.
Chang Wei did not pretend to be mysterious and came quickly.
“Sir, who are you?”
Pepper frowned when she saw the stranger coming. She had never seen this person on the list of shareholders of Stark Industries.
“Mr. Chang Wei is the president of Ares Industries and the second largest shareholder of your Stark Industries, holding 35% of the shares.”
The assistant who came with Chang Wei stepped forward and said to Pepper.
“Ares Industries!”
As soon as this name came out, a whisper suddenly rang in the conference room.
Ares Industries, a military giant that has risen rapidly in recent years, has caused a sensation in the industry with its innovative power armor technology.
It not only fills the market gap left by Stark Industries after the closure of its weapons department, but also threatens Stark Industries’ position in the military industry with an aggressive attitude.
This name, which has frequently appeared in news headlines in recent years, has become an existence that cannot be ignored. Its power armor technology has not only revolutionized the concept of military equipment, but also led a revolution in military technology.
And its boss and founder has always remained mysterious. The outside world only knows that he is a visionary and courageous entrepreneur, but as for his true identity, background, and even appearance, no one knows.
Today, the mysterious Ares Industrial helmsman finally stood on the board of directors of Stark Industries and faced Tony Stark.
Chang Wei’s dress is simple but noble. A well-tailored dark suit, paired with an exquisite silver tie, shows his extraordinary temperament.
At this moment, it seems that the two major military giants are directly colliding, and the air is filled with a tense atmosphere of impending storm.
The president of Ares Industries actually holds 35% of Stark Industries’ shares. What on earth is he trying to do?
You should know that Ares Industries itself is not listed. Chang Wei has absolute control over Ares Industries. The market valuation of Ares Industries is at least 100 billion. If he announces the listing, the market value may soar several times or even more than ten times.
Who makes the power armor so attractive?
Tony’s eyes flashed with surprise. He didn’t expect that the mysterious man who had been secretly competing with him for Stark Industries’ shares was actually Chang Wei, the president of Ares Industries.
This made him feel very complicated. On the one hand, he admired Chang Wei’s courage and wisdom; on the other hand, he also clearly realized that 39% of the shares were not enough to ensure his absolute control over Stark Industries in front of Chang Wei’s 35% shares.
“Welcome, Mr. Chang Wei.”
Tony forced a smile and tried to maintain his demeanor, “I didn’t expect that we would meet in this way.”
Chang Wei smiled slightly, revealing an indescribable confidence in his eyes: “Mr. Stark, I have always admired your talent and innovative spirit. But business is business, and sometimes, for the future of the company, we have to make some difficult choices.”
Reading the error-free version! The first release of this novel.
Tony frowned, hoping that nothing unexpected would happen today.
Fortunately, Chang Wei didn’t say a word after sitting down. Tony quickly adjusted his mentality and decided to stabilize the situation first and then make plans.
So, Tony cleared his throat and began to introduce the current difficulties faced by Stark Industries in detail.
“Dear shareholders, as you all know, Stark Industries has recently made a major decision to close its weapons manufacturing division. Although this decision is consistent with my personal values and vision for a future of peace, it is undeniable that It also had a big impact on the company. The closure of the weapons department directly led to a large number of weapons arsenals. How to deal with these weapons has become a big problem for us. At the same time, in order to maintain the company’s operations, we have to lay off employees, which undoubtedly exacerbates the anxiety of employees and the turmoil of the stock market. Tens of billions have been wiped out of market value, which is a heavy blow to all of us.”
When Tony said this, he paused deliberately and glanced at every shareholder present, trying to capture a hint of wavering or willingness to sell from their expressions.
However, to his disappointment, although Chang Wei’s appearance made the atmosphere more subtle, shareholders seemed to be waiting and watching, and no one easily expressed their position.
“I understand everyone’s concerns and I am also aware of the losses this decision has caused everyone.”
Tony continued, with a hint of sincerity in his tone, “Therefore, I propose that if you are willing, I can repurchase your shares at twice the market price to make up for your losses.”
As soon as Tony finished speaking, the conference room fell into a brief silence.
The shareholders looked at each other with mixed emotions in their eyes.
Some of them began to chat in low voices, discussing whether Tony’s proposal was feasible and whether it was worth the risk.
However, more people are weighing the pros and cons and considering how to obtain the greatest benefits for themselves in this game of power.
