Chapter 133: Niece
In the next few days, the 217 Fund and the team brought by Jack Dorsey had a series of negotiations, and they held meetings, meetings, and fucked meetings every day.
Equity mergers and acquisitions financing is a very complicated matter.
The most critical part is that mergers and financing have the obligation to inform all shareholders' meetings, and shareholders have the right to veto the transaction.
That is to say, even if Mark Anderson and Li Zhiyi look at Mung Beans, they still have to act according to the expressions of all shareholders.
The shareholders' meeting could veto the deal and prevent Mark Anderson from selling his shares to the 217 fund.
So it was not until early May that 217 and Jack Dorsey completed the details of the entire acquisition plan.
Jack Dorsey and Noah will handle the specific shareholders' meeting. They either replace interests and join forces or beg for shareholders one by one without having to worry about Li Zhiyi.
The latter is responsible for dealing with the seller in the shortest time: Mark Anderson and Hassan. Try to sign the equity transfer agreement the next second after the shareholders' resolution allows the transaction.
So on May 3rd, the second day after the acquisition plan was determined.
Li Zhiyi personally led a team to Silicon Valley to meet Mark Anderson, Hassan went to Boston Spark Capital Headquarters, and the 217 Fund launched the [Twitter Equity Acquisition Project] in a two-pronged manner.
"Speaking of the venture capital invitation for the YC incubation camp not long ago, I just came to San Francisco. When I left by plane, I thought that after half a year, I would come here when Airbnb became a dark horse in Silicon Valley. I didn't expect it to come again in just over a month."
On the way from the airport to downtown San Jose, Li Zhiyi looked bored at the increasingly familiar street scene outside the car window: "I didn't expect that one day I would become a flying man, traveling on business, negotiating, signing contracts... and waving a check to win one future giant enterprise after another."
"Boss, you will have lunch with Noah in half an hour. Because our itinerary is kept confidential, the restaurant was chosen at a mountaintop restaurant in South Bay, and I cannot attend."
Alison interrupted his thoughts and reported in a straightforward manner: "In order to prevent the embarrassment of meeting for the first time, I suggest you look at his basic information in advance, such as his political tendencies and preferences..."
"Lunch is expected to be around an hour and a half. After the international market closes in the afternoon, you have a conference call. Citi people hope to report to you the overall progress of the [Greek Bond CDS] transaction...8 o'clock in the evening..."
"When will I see Mark Anderson?" Li Zhiyi interrupted.
Alison clicks on the next page to start the schedule: "Tomorrow at 2 pm, Mark Anderson is currently in Florida and will not be able to return to San Jose tomorrow at noon."
"I won't go to see Noah at noon, and I will reject the conference call and meeting with Johnson in the evening." Li Zhiyi replied.
Alison was stunned for a moment: "Okay, uh...what are we going to do next?"
"I'll go home to see my parents, you'll take the others to the hotel."
After returning from New York during the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Li and Ms. Jing have been wandering abroad for more than two months and finally returned to their home in the San Francisco Bay Area. It is said that they came back temporarily because of the company's business.
Otherwise, the couple was attracted by a winery in New Zealand and were about to buy it.
In the past, it didn't matter what if I didn't have the ability to manage my family's business. Now, I heard that Lao Li said that the company was in trouble, and I felt that it should be nothing big, but I was always a little relieved.
In addition, Ms. Jing was unhappy during the Chinese New Year, and Li Zhiyi planned to go back and take a look.
"If this is the case, it's impolite. Noah called you two days in advance to have a meal." Alison reminded seriously.
Li Zhiyi smashed his mouth: "I have to criticize you for your thoughts. What is the most important social concept in our America?"
“…freedom, equality, diversity, respect.”
"Yes, diversity! Our country pays more attention to family than Italians, and family members are always ranked first. This is the culture of our country."
Li Zhiyi was like a first-class public intellectual and spoke completely: "Noah should understand my urgency to reunite with my family first. This is a manifestation of freedom, diversity and equality."
"Can you be more normal? We were on a business trip this time, which involves nearly $50 million in business. Don't be willful like a child!" Alison couldn't bear it anymore and retorted.
Li Zhiyi acts like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water: "We just need to deal with Mark Anderson, right? I don't want to waste time on unnecessary things."
"Okay, you're the boss, you're the final word, so today's itinerary is invalid?" Alison shrugged.
Li Zhiyi smiled and comforted: "Thank you. Let's relax, I won't delay the serious business when you know."
Alison shook his head helplessly: "I have never doubted your ability."
Hearing this, Li Zhiyi was quite helpful, and then laughed at himself. He was not capable, but golden fingers.
While repeatedly chanting "A gentleman is cautious in his own life" in his heart, he sent Alison and the driver away and drove back to his home in the Bay Area.
When I got home, I happened to be at the meal time. The unique aroma of oil smoke from Chinese food drifted far away, and there were lively chatting sounds in the room.
Li Zhiyi parked the car and greeted the nanny casually: "Aunt Wang, are there any guests at home?"
"Yes, your aunt's niece is here."
"The niece of my aunt's family?" Li Zhiyi couldn't make a mistake.
Aunt Wang showed the same smile when she went home during the holidays to see her children recognize her relatives and couldn't recognize her relatives: "Your mother and her sister's child is called niece."
While the two of them were talking, they saw Ms. Jing tied her hands and greeted her from the restaurant: "Why don't you say hello in advance every time you go home? Come and say hello to your sister Qin."
Li Zhiyi walked into the restaurant with a smile on his lips. He saw a middle-aged woman with eyebrows and eyes that looked a bit similar to Ms. Jing and her delicate makeup waved her hand and said, "Oh, Xiaoyi is back, come to sit next to her."
"Okay, Sister Qin."
Li Zhiyi said as he sat beside Sister Qin, a beautiful girl of similar age, nodded, "Sister, I'll wash my hands, you guys eat first."
"Come here quickly, otherwise Liu'er will finish all the delicious food." Sister Qin replied kindly.
Li Zhiyi smiled and replied, "Ah", then turned around and put down the computer and walked towards the bathroom. He thought for a long time, and almost washed his hands before he could straighten out his relatives.
First of all, Sister Qin is the child of Ms. Jing’s eldest sister. According to her seniority, Ms. Jing is Sister Qin’s aunt, but the two are the same age.
Because of the time difference between the previous generation of children, she and Sister Qin's daughter are about the same age, but she has to call herself... uncle?
I called her niece...this is that way?
But she seems to be three years older than herself...
Li Zhiyi couldn't tell the difference, but fortunately, Sister Qin's daughter was quite shy, and the communication between the two was very limited during the meal, so she couldn't escape the name and name "Cui A-Liu" or the nickname "Liu'er".
After a meal, he was vaguely eating and laughing in the living room obediently. Li Zhiyi finally caught the opportunity to go to the outdoor yard to have a private chat with Comrade Li.
"Come to Silicon Valley to discuss business?" Old Li asked with a cigarette in his mouth.
Li Zhiyi ignited his father: "Well, I'm going to acquire the shares of Twitter and come here to talk in person."
"Personal, Boss Li's words and behaviors are different now." Old Li smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Li Zhiyi played with the lighter: "Hehe, I mean this project is very important. There is no way to ask for leave and come here to discuss it in person, so that you won't delay your study."
