Dracaena Marginata: Controlling # and where new shoot starts

Hello, I bought a Dracaena Marginata with four stems on Craigslist for $40. Two stems are hitting the ceiling, so I want to cut them sorter to let them restart at about 3 and 4 feet hight. But, the stems are in a row (like in a line) and I want the new growth not to be in line with the row but to start growing to the front and to the back.

Also, if I cut the stem, will just one new shoot start? Can I get 2 or 3 to start there?

Thanks a lot!!

I wanted to include a pic but am not sure how....

Jim the guy with too many plants...
