Sourcebook
Intro
Materials related to the current acquisition are spread out one by one across the circular table.
The final acquisition report is displayed on the large screen, with market reactions, stock price fluctuations, and approval statuses from regulatory agencies in each country being updated in real-time following the signing of the contract.
The meeting was already more than halfway through. Variables that arose during the acquisition process and the remaining procedures were being settled one by one, and detailed agendas, including the integration schedule for overseas corporations, management replacement plans, and retention contracts for core technical personnel, were thoroughly reviewed without exception.
New data was brought up on the screen whenever opinions were exchanged, and parts requiring modification were immediately organized before moving on to the next agenda. There were no unnecessary arguments. There was no rebuttal for the sake of rebuttal, nor any emotional persuasion. Only figures, results, and the future profits Velkor would secure were at the center of the meeting.
After a moment, the screen switched to show a market share forecast graph post-acquisition.
Existing: 38.6%.
Post-acquisition: 54.1%.
The eyes watching the rising graph did not linger long. It was a result already expected.
Immediately, the next document was opened. Organizational restructuring plans for the acquired company, appointment of new representatives, integration of research institutes, and procedures for subsidiary incorporation. Decisions were made quickly, and schedules were confirmed accordingly.
The inside of the conference room remained calm. Neither a deal worth hundreds of trillions of won nor a decision that would shift the landscape of the global market was a special event for them.
It was simply one of the many agendas Velkor had to process today.
