"Acquisition of Hu Shang Hongye Building Materials Co., Ltd.!"

As soon as the words landed, everyone who had been paying attention to Gu Bai's speech started discussing again, and this time the murmurs were even louder than before.

Although Black Swan Group has had several acquisition cases, the highest was only 360 million for YW Company.

But Hongye Building Materials is different.

It is a listed company for several years, currently in an upward phase, with a market value continuously rising, reaching up to 6.5 billion.

The only way for Gu Bai to acquire Hongye Building Materials at this time is through one avenue.

And that's overvaluation!

All the executives at Black Swan Group know that the recent combined assault by three major departments was pushed from behind by Hongye Building Materials, and they all expect Gu Bai to take some action.

But if it's a direct acquisition of Hongye Building Materials, although it might bring some satisfaction, it is undoubtedly foolish behavior.

It would be like sending money straight into someone else's pocket.

Even though there's a bit of dissatisfaction with Gu Bai in their hearts, Mr. Shao is still the Group's General Manager at this moment, and immediately stepped up to advise, "Chairman Gu, I disagree with acquiring Hongye Building Materials!

As a well-established physical business, Hongye Building Materials already has a strong presence in Shanghai, and over the years, their financial status has always been healthy, and their market value has steadily risen. Acquiring them at this time would require at least a 40% premium, costing over ten billion, and our company has never entered the building materials industry; even if we acquire it, it will be difficult to manage well and might even affect the original value of Hongye Building Materials. From an investment perspective, this is definitely a high-risk, low-return investment!"

One has to admit that Mr. Shao's argument in this aspect is quite sound.

Yi Fangqin, the Chief Financial Officer, also advised, "Chairman Gu, the company's finances do not permit us to acquire Hongye Building Materials, and for such a large-scale acquisition, I suggest calling a board meeting for a directors' vote."

Among the dozens of people present, almost no one agreed with Gu Bai's words.

Gu Bai was not surprised by their reactions; if they had really unanimously agreed, he might have suspected them of being moles sent by another company.

Thinking of this, Gu Bai smiled slightly, pressed his palm down gently, signaling for everyone to quiet down.

Once the noise stopped, Gu Bai slowly said, "Everything you said is very reasonable, but the acquisition of Hongye Building Materials is imperative, and there's no need for a board meeting; it's settled."

Everyone wanted to speak, but Gu Bai directly interrupted them.

"I understand your concerns, so I will promise here that if the acquisition price of Hongye Building Materials exceeds 2 billion, the company will stop the acquisition."

Acquiring a listed company with a market value of 6.5 billion with just 2 billion?

Everyone thought Gu Bai was going mad.

Gu Bai did not care about the looks from everyone, but just turned to Mr. Shao and said, "Regarding the acquisition plan, I'll leave it to President Shao."

Since Gu Bai made the promise, Mr. Shao naturally wouldn't say much, as for the acquisition plan, he might as well let the investment and risk control departments follow Gu Bai's folly for a few days.

But only Gu Bai knew that the big bomb he had prepared for Hongye Group was about to detonate.

Acquiring Hongye with 2 billion may not be the lowest, but even if it's high, it won't be too much higher.

"That's it, meeting adjourned."

After speaking, Gu Bai directly stood up and prepared to leave the meeting room.

Mr. Shao stared at Gu Bai's back, hesitated for a long time but still couldn't make up his mind. The power in the position of General Manager is too great, and he is really reluctant to let go just like that.

As Gu Bai was about to reach the door of the meeting room, he suddenly thought of something, turned around, and said to Ai Shengnan, who hadn't voiced any opinion during the meeting, "President Ai, come to my office later if you have no other engagements, I have a multi-billion project I want to discuss with you."

The expression was very serious, giving no hint of underlying meaning.

Upon hearing Gu Bai's words, Ai Shengnan first thought about what billion-dollar project she could discuss with Gu Bai. After thinking carefully, her mature aura body couldn't help but shiver, and a hint of coyness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

What else could be the billion-dollar project Gu Bai could discuss with her?

Other than the so-called deaths worth billions, there was nothing else.

"Okay, I'll come over after finishing up my work."

Gu Bai made an OK gesture, then directly turned and left.

Everyone remained puzzled; a multi-billion project is considered a top-level project in the group. Why was it not mentioned at the meeting earlier, but privately discussed with Ai Shengnan?

Yet, no one made the connection, and they all congratulated Ai Shengnan.

Ai Shengnan was already at the age of a fierce tiger, ever since Gu Bai took advantage of her last time, she had long savored the taste, solving her problems through her own means during the days when Gu Bai was in the Capital City.

Now hearing Gu Bai wanting to discuss a project in the office excitedly invigorated her whole body with a distinguishable thrill.

She couldn't help but smile happily.

That smile made many male executives unable to resist a flutter in their hearts.

For a woman like Ai Shengnan, with perfect appearance and temperament, which man wouldn't be moved?

However, if they knew that in a short while, several billion lives would be snuffed out by the goddess they had in their hearts, what would they think then?
