"Um?"

Even if the translator didn't say it, the word Vivendi, which was repeatedly mentioned on Cao Yang's phone call, attracted their attention.

Tim was stunned for a moment and waved his hand quickly, "Let's go back, it's not good to eavesdrop on other people's conversations."

"Um."

The translator's face turned red and he nodded.

The three men put out the cigarette butts and returned to the conference room.

But along the way, Tim and Cliff's expressions changed slightly.

...

Back at the negotiating table, Tim's face turned a little red.

He was thinking about something—

Vivendi said he wanted to sell Blizzard to Bomi by price cut.

Is this news true?

Judging from the news that Blizzard in the North collective resigned some time ago, this is indeed something Vivendi could do.

They have always liked to squeeze out the game companies they acquired and then abandon them as if they were worn out. Now, after Blizzard in the North collectively resigned, Blizzard has lost half of the country.

Then the remaining Blizzard will not be that valuable.

And if such a big thing happened to the company, can the staff of Blizzard in the South really sit still?

In order to deal with the personnel crisis, will Vivendi sell it to Bomi at a lower price?

It's really hard to say.

Judging from the information I learned before, Bomi's first intention is to acquire Blizzard, and Epic should be the alternative after Boss Cao returns to China.

So if Bomi can acquire Blizzard, is it still necessary to acquire Epic?

Although Tim is very confident about Epic, although everyone is playing games, their advantages and focuses differently.

However, it depends on Boss Cao's positioning of value, which company is more worthy to them.

"Mr. Tim?"

Cao Yang's shouting pulled him back from his thoughts.

Tim smiled and said, "Sorry."

He hesitated for a moment, "Sorry Mr. Cao Yang, can you wait a moment and give us half an hour of discussion before continuing?"

Cao Yang looked at the current time. It was 11:10 in the morning, and it was still a little far from lunch time.

"Yes, then let's go out for a walk first and come back in half an hour."

Cao Yang stood up with a smile, and then left the conference room with the staff from Bomi.

After they left, Epic's staff had a tense discussion.

...

At the same time, Cao Yang took his little secretary and his friends for a walk downstairs of Epic's company.

Zhuang Yurou recalled what happened in the conference room today and asked in confusion:

"Boss, why do you always say good things about them at the meeting? Will this lead to others deliberately raising the price?"

In the eyes of the young secretary, it was all the boss that was too good, which led to others deliberately lowering the price, so there was no negotiation.

No one can reach an agreement, so the next few days will be a physical work.

Maybe it's like Vivendi did last time, but it ended in vain.

Cao Yang curled his lips, "Otherwise? Sometimes speaking good things is actually a price reduction."

Zhuang Yurou frowned, "I don't understand."

"Think about it, are you willing to do business with people who praise you and praise you, or do you like to belittle you and eliminate people who do business?"

Cao Yang gave her a blank look and said, "Sister, please, we are here to discuss mergers and acquisitions, which is similar to a partner. In the future, everyone will have to eat and make money by making money in the same pot. What do you think?

Is it because you are willing to marry a husband in the future that you bought you at a cheap price?"

"Um..." Zhuang Yurou frowned, not knowing how to refute it.

I don’t know why, but the boss was obviously reasoning, but it turned out that the little secretary himself suffered 10,000 points of damage.

Cao Yang didn't say anything, but just walked back and forth, and his body was a little stiff due to long meetings.

After a while, Cao Yang asked with a smile, "Do you know what I did when I went out to make the phone call?"

Zhuang Yurou shook her head, "I don't know, nor do I want to know."

It's nothing to do with me.

It was probably Miss Mining again, so she called him.

Pei Siqing beats every day.

"I sent a text message to Guangran yesterday," Cao Yang said with a smile, "let him call him at 10:30 today."

"Um?"

Zhuang Yurou frowned slightly, not understanding what this was. "Boss, you have a bad brain. Why did you ask Liu Guangran to call us during our meeting? Don't you know that we had an appointment with Epic for one day today?"

"Of course I know," Cao Yang smiled wickedly, "It is precisely because of this that this call is very important. I asked Liu Guangran to call, pretending that Vivendi agreed to lower the price and sell Blizzard to us."

"Ha?!" The little secretary was sitting next to the flower bed and rubbed his aching calves. He jumped up when he heard this.

"Speak softly." Cao Yang quickly put a finger on his lips.

"I don't understand, why do you have to do such a thing?" Zhuang Yurou really doesn't understand.

Does it make sense to let your own people pretend that Vivendi lowered the price to sell Blizzard?

What is fake is fake, and you can't really get it by reducing the price.

Is it fun to deceive yourself?

but……

Why did Boss Cao choose to do this during the meeting?

Confused.

"You don't understand," Cao Yang showed a sly smile on his face. "I did this to deliberately let them hear it, especially the American translator Epic found himself. In this way, they knew that we were going to acquire Blizzard."

"The news of the acquisition of Blizzard..." Zhuang Yurou's brain rotated rapidly, trying to keep up with Cao Yang's rhythm.

"If you are Epic's boss, what do you think?"

"What do I think?" Zhuang Yurou frowned, "If Bomi wants to acquire Blizzard, does it mean that her intention to acquire Epic today has been reduced?

After all, Blizzard is much more valuable than Epic, and we are just a small company now."

Damn it!

The little secretary's pupils suddenly dilated, and he raised his head in surprise.

"Boss, you're too bad, are you?"

Cao Yang smiled, "This is the correct way to reduce prices, introduce a competitor worthy of fear, and let them know that Bomi has only one intention to cooperate in the United States.

So will Epic change its original asking price strategy and be eager to reach a cooperation with Bomi?"

Even if not, at least psychologically, the other party will have room for concession.

"Boss, you are really amazing! Is this OK?" Zhuang Yurou thought silently, "No wonder they went to the urgent meeting. It turned out that they were hit."

Cao Yang smiled and said nothing, all of which were basically within his expectations.

"But..." the little secretary frowned, "I don't understand a question very much. How can you know that the other party's translator will definitely overhear your conversation and tell them."

Cao Yang sat on the park bench and gently dusted the dust on his trouser legs with his hands.

"How could I know, but there is this possibility, even if it is not heard or the translator doesn't tell them,"

Cao Yang raised his eyebrows, "Because I decided to acquire Epic from the beginning, but it only cost more."

One is an open conspiracy and the other is a conspiracy.

If the conspiracy does not work, it is naturally a matter of winning by making a decision.

This is called preparation for both hands.

Fortunately, the conspiracy has worked now, and the subsequent negotiations should be one-sided.
