The Rebirth of Wealth

In front of Yuanfang Building.

Yuan Chengdao smiled with enthusiasm and said: "Congratulations to President Li for his triumph!"

"Triumph", this is everyone's consensus.

An extremely successful ip plan!

Teng Xun's resumption of trading and Weibo listing almost started at the same time. At the beginning, many people opposed it. They felt that the two were listed at the same time, which was too risky.

The two financings are nearly US $ 10 billion, which is unprecedented among technology stocks.

In the eyes of everyone, investors need to be given some time. After all, their money is not out of thin air. The two listings at the same time will dilute these funds.

But Li Dong insisted that, plus Weibo and Teng Xun, they also hoped to give him a big gift on the third anniversary, Li Dong's birthday, so in the end both sides are accelerating.

At the beginning of the road show, Yuan Chengdao also worried about problems.

But now, the emergence of panic buying has made everyone feel at ease.

Not only the panic buying trend, but now, Li Dong is discussing all over the world, all from afar, Weibo and Teng Xun.

Such a scene hasn't appeared in many years. Even if Ali went public in 2007, the sensation caused by it is not as big as it is now.

...

Li Dong accepted the congratulations and congratulations to the company executives.

But Li Dong didn't say much about it. While walking inside the building, he asked, "How's the conversation with the Yangtze River?"

When Li Dongyi talked about the Yangtze River, Yuan Chengdao frowned slightly, and did not answer.

Chen Lang, who was on the side, immediately said: "A formal contract has been signed, and we are also taking over the work of taking over Baijia.

For the stores in the mainland, it's okay to say that the staff is also easy to arrange.

But there is a little trouble on the Xiangjiang River. Xiangjiang is a little different from the mainland, especially the labor ...

Li Dong interrupted: "Distance from far away has always been no worse than that of any enterprise. You can do it yourself.

If I feel that I am in the top 100, I want to greatly improve the treatment, OK, let me see their abilities!

Without that ability, don't toss about these messes.

The tide of resistance that erupted in the distance before finally ended in silence.

I don't need to talk to me about these details, and to talk about capital issues, including the attitudes of other companies. "

Today, it has been half a month since the two sides reached an agreement. At this time, the distance has begun to take over Baijia. If other companies do not know, then Li Dong feels that they can all close down.

Hearing Li Dong asking about it, Chen Lang quickly said: "In terms of funding, the Yangtze River has not been too harsh this time.

Mr. Li Zeju said that it wouldn't be too late to make payments in the distance.

Of course, the contract is signed for one year. "

Li Dong nodded his head. After all, the Yangtze River is a big group, and it is not a small company in the distance. Two billion US dollars is not much, not much.

The other party politely said that it was selling a face, after all, both parties were not too happy before.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Dong to really tell the other party that he will give it when he has money.

After thinking about it, Li Dong said: "After a while, try to pay it off within half a year."

Chen Lang responded without asking the source of the funds. The $ 2 billion was not too much, especially this time when Teng Xun resumed trading. The restricted sales period in the distance was only 180 days.

After 180 days, even cashing out part of the stock is enough to repay the debt.

After talking about the money, Chen Lang continued: "As for the reactions of other companies, Hua Run has also started to deploy itself in Xiangjiang. Hua Run has a solid foundation in Xiangjiang. Even if it does not merge or purchase the Best 100, Hua Run ’s strength Not weak.

But now the Xiangjiang market is close to saturation, with Wellcome and Parknant occupying 80% of the retail market in Xiangjiang.

As long as we can keep Parkson's normal operations, other companies' expansion plans in Xiangjiang will have little effect.

In the interior, especially in coastal areas, competition is now fierce.

Some retail companies that have cooperated with us have recently complained that Hua Run, Bailian, and Gaoxin are madly investing in stores in coastal areas, and many stores are almost adjacent to our system.

Recently, the diversion is relatively strong. It seems that these enterprises do not want us to continue to grow in the coastal areas, and have already compressed our market scale at any cost. "

"In addition, there is another thing you have been busy recently, you may not care, Xinyijia declared bankruptcy ..."

Li Dong froze a little, and sighed a little while later: "Can't it hold up? Also, now the competition in the retail industry is too fierce, the other party is already reluctantly supporting it, and it is normal now that it can't be sustained."

Li Dong may not have been attentive to Xinyijia, but it does not mean that he is not concerned at all.

In fact, Xinyijia's crazy expansion mode was almost exactly the same as the distance.

The time is almost the same. At that time, the two newcomers were frantically expanding, trying to create a national layout.

Fortunately from afar, in fact, I have experienced several crises in the middle, but they were all resolved by Li Dong.

New Yijia, in addition to expansion, is unable to resolve the crisis.

In the past two years, facing the fiercely competitive market, it has already shown signs of decline.

At that time, Xinyijia was proud of their outsourcing logistics. All logistics and distribution of Xinyijia were outsourced. In this way, you can save a lot of costs without investing yourself.

But it was that year, and now major companies are perfecting their layout and system, and self-operated logistics has become a core competitiveness.

At the beginning, it may be a little more invested. In the later period, there is still a gap between the self-operated system and the outsourcing system.

Moreover, the cost of outsourcing logistics has risen in recent years, and the price has been greatly increased. Xinyijia does not have its own system at all.

Coupled with the ongoing competition among several shareholders, they are reluctant to spend money on the renovation of old stores. Many of the new Yijia stores are still decorated in the 1990s.

The proportion of self-operated properties is also low, and rents have begun to rise again, all kinds of difficulties, and finally Xinyijia did not escape bankruptcy.

In fact, this has already been felt in and outside the industry, and there have been several outbreaks of suppliers encircling their stores on a large scale and recovering payment.

Li Dong thought of this in his heart, but said: "The other party has long fallen from the position of the retail giant. The bankruptcy has not affected us too much, but has given up part of the market.

In this way, didn't we reach an agreement with some real estate developers in coastal areas last time?

Now we are preparing for stores, ready to settle in, and seize the market share that Xinyijia stays in.

But in the south, there are not too many cooperative enterprises. We have to prepare some self-operated stores ... "

When he said this, Chen Lang frowned slightly: "Mr. Li, the group really does not have the funds to continue to expand.

The profits of distant retail have recently been used in the construction of boutique supermarkets and the layout of Guomei rural stores.

These alone, the remote retail has already been unable to make ends meet.

In addition, the last 10 billion ... "

Li Dong interrupted: "The last 10 billion was the last thing. I will talk about it later.

As for funding ... "

Li Dong turned his head around and did not see Cao Jinsheng of Distant Finance, but he still asked: "Has the ABS financing plan over Distant Finance started?"

Yuan Chengdao answered: "In preparation, it is expected to officially start financing in September."

"September ..." Li Dong paused and nodded, "Then September.

By this time, the expansion plan for retailing was no longer enough.

At the beginning, I said that after August, large-scale entry into the southern market.

What is lacking now is actually funds.

Loans, financing, borrowing ... In short, money can still be obtained.

On the south side, it didn't cost much in advance.

On the retail group side, anyway, on such a large scale, a boutique supermarket and Guomei store layout, spent all the money?

Our profit this year is not low, even if the profit rate is a bit lower, based on this, the profit in the second half of the year will be pre-expended in advance. I think it is enough to maintain the expansion of the South. "

Chen Lang looked at Yuan Chengdao, but Yuan Chengdao didn't say anything.

It is not the first time that the remote operation at full load has been completed. At this time, Li Dong is all set. What can I do?

Fortunately, everyone still feels confident.

After all, the listing of the two technology stocks will create a lot of value. When necessary, cashing out, stock mortgages, these are all possible, and raising money is not difficult.

Upon seeing this, Chen Lang responded again. Li Dong thought for a while and said, "How is Qi Yunna doing in the north?"

Chen Lang quickly said: "Not too smooth, big business and Wumei have been dragging us ..."

"Forget it, let Qi Yunna try it, otherwise she won't be reconciled."

Li Dong did not expect to achieve results so quickly, everything depends on luck and opportunity.

After talking about distant retailing, Li Dong arranged another group's work.

At this time, Yuan Chengdao suddenly remembered something and quickly said: "General Li, the CCTV side has communicated with us recently. The selection of the annual economic figures in August has already begun.

CCTV here hopes to make an exclusive interview with you as the next promotional video. "

The underlying meaning of this statement is too clear. Although it is still in the selection stage, since CCTV said it was recorded as a promotional film, it means that this year's annual economic figure, Li Dong is determined.

Starting from 2000, CCTV will select ten annual characters and ten places every year. If Li Dong can't even get one, I'm afraid everyone will find it boring and unfair.

From 2008 to 2009, Li Hua was a well-deserved figure in the business world in China and the world.

In the selection in 2008, Li Dong was not allowed to go up, so he would not say anything. After all, the selection started in August 2008. At that time, Li Dong was not as strong as it is now, and he did not take the initiative to participate. It's not surprising that Li Dong didn't select Li Dong in year.

But this year, there has been a lot of news, Li Dong may become the annual figure of Time Weekly.

It is the global version, not the Asian version!

Once the Weibo listing can meet expectations, this hope is great. At this time, Li Dong is not yet an annual economic figure of Huaxia. That is a joke.

What is the concept of Time Weekly ’s annual characters?

It has been 82 years since the selection in 1927.

The annual characters are not the usual cover characters, but one person selected every year.

Over the past 80 years, many people in China have become the cover figures of Time magazine ’s global journals, but there are only two people of the year!

As for some news reports, which star is on the cover of the times, it is all in the Asian section, not the global section. This is a big difference.

In 37 years, the old Jiang and his wife represented Hua Xia for the first time as a figure of the year.

The other person has entered twice. In 1978 and 1985, Deng Gong was twice elected as the figure of the year.

Since then, no one in China has entered.

The cover characters of the main journal, in fact, have never been entered in the Chinese entertainment industry, so the cover characters of the times are usually referring to the Asian version, and the influence of the two is very different.

In 2008, Li Dong actually entered the shortlist, but at that time he was not influential enough, almost the first one was eliminated, so not many people mentioned this matter.

But this year, Li Dong hopes very much.

Affected by the economic crisis, this year's selection, outside speculation should be mainly economic figures, rather than political figures.

When the stock market has not recovered and the world is still sluggish, Li Dong bucked the trend and built two technology stocks that attracted worldwide attention. With this alone, he hoped to increase by three points.

And with the increasing influence of Weibo, including the words he had previously spoken in the US road show, will give him points ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ At this time, Li Dong is not hopeless.

However, Li Dong did not pay much attention to these honors. He rarely mentioned them. Before the road show in the United States, people of the era actually wanted to give him an exclusive interview. Li Dong excused the road show too busy and refused.

Before that, the Asian version of the Times reporter also wanted to interview him several times, but was rejected by Li Dong.

Now hearing Yuan Chengdao talking about China's economic figures of the year, Li Dong thought about it for a moment, but nodded: "Okay, wait for me to relax and arrange an exclusive interview for me."

Not for fame, not for honor, but at this time I really want to lose face of CCTV, then once he becomes an annual figure of the times, it is likely to cause international criticism.

A richest man in the world, a richest man in the world at the age of 24, and a big entrepreneur known as the Eastern giant, ca n’t even be selected as an economic figure of the year in China. Does this economic figure still have credibility?

Among them, how many shady scenes in the end, I am afraid that China will be greatly questioned by the outside world.

Based on this, even if Li Dong is really busy, he has to take the time to participate once so as not to end up with bad international influence.

Yuan Chengdao relieved when he heard Li Dong agree.

It is reasonable to say that such a thing should not be raised by the president himself, but Bai Su, the assistant, would just say something.

But he was afraid that Li Dong didn't care. Once he refused, he would certainly make many people unhappy.

After all, it was n’t Li Dong, but the entire Huaxia that was ashamed.

Now Li Dong agreed, it would be better.

Next, everyone chatted for a while, mainly to make arrangements for the third anniversary of the establishment of the Far Group and the listing of the two groups.

These few things are not trivial, and they are almost concentrated together. At this time, the remote group was actually busier than when it was expanded in previous years.
