Li Dong sat in the private room for a while, thinking about his plan.
What if GOME agrees but requests to issue new shares? What should they do?
Or, how much should he reduce the shares to be able to win the controlling stake?
Also, even if JP Morgan Chase and Morgan Stanley could exchange Weibo shares, he needed money.
According to his plan, he needed at least tens of billions of funds. Where should he get the money?
Finally, nearly one-third of Gome's stores were not listed on the stock market. If he was forced, Huang's would inject these stores into Gome's listed shares. How could he regain the controlling stake?
All of these problems needed to be considered.
It was not easy to take away the former number one retail group.
Funds, plans, and all kinds of plans were necessary.
Will JP Morgan Chase and Morgan Stanley be successful in exchanging Weibo for shares?
Would the Cheng family compromise with Fukang?
In short, this was not an easy task. But because it was not easy, Li Dong wanted to do it.
Bailian and Huarun were state-owned enterprises. It was difficult for Li Dong to intervene.
Suning was eyeing them covetously, and Zhang Jindong was not a weakling. It would be difficult for Li Dong to enter their internal affairs.
Only Gome was different!
Old Huang was not a weakling. But now that he was inside, even if he commanded remotely, it was not as good as being outside.
There was still internal strife. Du Juan was eager to grasp any life-saving straw. This was an opportunity.
Bullying a woman was much easier than bullying a group of men.
Anyway, she was not his wife. If Li Dong bullied her, he would not care about them. Even if he controlled the Huang family, it was not that the Huang family did not have money. They just lost control.
…
After sitting for half an hour, Li Dong got up. "Let's go. Keep an eye on Du Juan. Let me know if there is any news."
Qi Yunna nodded.
They had just left the private room when they saw a few people walking in the corridor.
Li Dong took a closer look. What a coincidence.
Actually, it was not a coincidence. When the other party saw him, he quickly smiled. "Brother Dong, Manager Lu said you were here. I came to see you. Have you finished eating?"
Shen Hang's face was full of smiles, looking like a lackey.
Li Dong was slightly stunned. This guy had changed so much.
In the past, asking him to call him brother was like asking for his life.
He didn't expect that he would take the initiative to call out to him now.
Also, if he knew that he was here in the past, he would have run away long ago. But now, he took the initiative to come here, which was quite surprising.
Li Dong was slightly startled, then he smiled and said, "I've eaten. How about you?"
"I've already eaten. Brother Dong, do you want to go back or go upstairs to play?" While Shen Hang was asking questions, he introduced them to Li Dong, "Brother Dong, these are my friends. This is …"
Shen Hang made a few introductions and then said with a smile, "Brother Dong, I won't introduce you. Who doesn't know you? Don't just stand there, call me brother! "
The few people who came with Shen Hang were men and women. When they saw Li Dong, they were a little nervous.
When Shen Hang spoke, they hurriedly said, "Brother Dong!"
Li Dong nodded slightly and looked at Shen Hang.
Shen Hang said with a smile, "Brother Dong, where are you going now? Why don't we go sit together? "
Li Dong waved his hand and said, "I still have something to do. I won't go."
"Then I'll go sit at your place. I have nothing to do anyway. I won't disturb you from your business. By the way, didn't my sister come back? "
Li Dong stared at him for a while before saying, "She didn't come back. Then you can come with me. Your friends …"
Shen Hang laughed when he heard that. "Ah Long, Yueyue, you guys play by yourself. I'll chat with Brother Dong. I'll come find you later."
How could they dare to refuse? They were even a little envious.
In their eyes, Li Dong was the representative of the devil king. Now that Shen Hang could be so close to Li Dong, it was too surprising.
Although many people knew that the relationship between Li Dong and Shen Qian was not ordinary.
But Shen Qian was Shen Qian, not Shen Hang.
Now it seemed that Shen Hang and Li Dong's relationship was not bad. That was worth discussing.
…
After bidding farewell to Lu Wanying who sent him off enthusiastically.
Li Dong went out and got in the car. Shen Hang followed.
Once in the car, the smile on Shen Hang's face disappeared. He said with some apprehension, "Brother Dong …"
Li Dong glanced at him and said lightly, "What, who do you want to use my power to suppress? Or, is there something else? "
Shen Hang smiled awkwardly. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother Dong, didn't you say a lot to me last time?
You said that the Shen family can't hold on for long. You also said that the Shen family is now on the verge of collapse.
Since then, I've observed more in the company and heard some things from my dad.
Now, the Shen family is indeed suffering from internal and external troubles.
If we don't solve this problem, maybe what you said is right. It won't be long before we have to go out and find jobs.
Unfortunately, none of my uncles, aunts, cousins, and sisters have this kind of awareness!
Play when you want to play, enjoy when you want to enjoy!
If this goes on, sooner or later something big will happen.
So I thought … "
"Want to control the Shen family?" Li Dong said lightly.
"Yes!"
Shen Hang said solemnly, "I know it's very difficult, but I still hope to achieve this goal. Those friends of mine just now are from the banking system, the government, and the children of some of the small shareholders of the Shen family. Although the Shen family is still controlled by our family, there are some small shareholders with other surnames, as well as a large number of loans and debts. I hope that through these channels, my father's support, and my aunt's support, I can gain control of the Shen family … "
Li Dong glanced at him and said, "Why go through so much trouble? From what you're saying, your dad knows about this and supports you, right? "
"Yes."
"That's it. The Shen family is still under your dad's control. Even if you take it, the result will be the same. Actually, the problem is that you want to kick out the other members of the Shen family, right? "
Shen Hang didn't deny it and nodded. "That's right."
"Do you still need me to teach you? Your father is now in control of the corporation, so he can just escape and transfer the high-quality assets, leaving the mess to those people, and there will be one more scapegoat. If you don't even know how to do this, do you still want to enter the Shen family and take over this mess? You're a hothead, but is your dad the same? But then again, your dad isn't that smart. Otherwise, the Shen family wouldn't have fallen to this state. "
Li Dong curled his lips in disdain.
Shen Hang said dryly, "Brother Dong, this is what I mean. I still hope that the Shen family can be revived. As long as we kick out those parasites, we still have hope. After all, it's a century-old brand. If it's really destroyed, I … "
"Foolish!"
Li Dong sneered and said casually, "You don't take the easy way out, but you insist on taking the complicated one.
Do you think you're me?
You want money but you don't have it. You want capital but you don't have connections. You have nothing!
At this time, you're telling me that you want to lead the Shen family back to life. Are you kidding me?
Shen Hang, I, Brother-in-law, only spoke a few words to you on account of your sister's face.
Give up that unrealistic idea. Your ability is not enough for you to lead the Shen family to rise again.
The most important thing now is to start anew. It's more accurate to take back what you can.
The century-old Shen family has too many drawbacks and is too complicated. It's not something you can play around with.
Even if you throw me in, I might not be able to play around. Especially now that the Shen family is involved in a lot of things. You have to cut it off. Otherwise, it's still a dead end.
That's all I have to say. Think about it yourself.
Also, it's fine to borrow my face, but don't touch my fundamental interests. Otherwise, I won't pay for you. Understand? "
Shen Hang smiled bitterly. "You're too practical."
"Nonsense. Are you waiting to die if you're not practical when doing business?"
Li Dong said sourly, "Besides, you're not Qianqian's biological brother. You're just a cousin. Why should I be so good to you? Your Shen family has provoked me several times. I'm already giving you face by not making trouble for you. Do you understand? "
Shen Hang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Can you not be so direct?
He really admired Li Dong now. There were some words that he couldn't say if it were him.
But on Li Dong's side, he said it as if it was a matter of course and didn't take it seriously at all.
Shen Hang sighed and said helplessly, "I understand. In that case, if I want to borrow money from you …"
"Dream on. I'm in dire need of money now. Besides, even if I have money, I won't borrow it. Three or five million can be discussed. If it's too much, you'd better wash up and sleep. "
What else could Shen Hang say?
Meeting this kind of cheap brother-in-law, it was useless no matter what he said.
If it were another person, they might be more polite for the sake of his older sister.
But on Li Dong's side, it was a good thing that he didn't teach him a lesson. This guy was young, but his patriarchal style was proper. How could he be his brother-in-law? Even his father wasn't so overbearing.
After a few words from Li Dong, Shen Hang also hesitated.
Did he really have to give up the Shen family's name?
Was the century-old Shen family really going to completely decline in this generation?
…
Li Dong couldn't be bothered to care about Shen Hang's thoughts.
Halfway there, Li Dong sent him away. He didn't have time to talk nonsense with Shen Hang.
He had a lot of things to do on this trip to Beijing.
In the afternoon, he had an appointment with Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for tea. He couldn't be late.
He also had an appointment with the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Finance.
There was also the Central Bank and the China Banking Regulatory Commission. Li Dong also wanted to talk to them …
He had a lot of things to do. Next, he had to visit Du Anmin and the others. He couldn't wait to be used as two people. He naturally avoided other things as much as possible.
These things weren't suitable to be handed over to others.
Only Li Dong could do it himself, or let Yuan Chengdao do it.
However, Yuan Chengdao had a lot of things to do recently. Logistics matters, airline matters, cooperation with China Resources …
These things needed people.
Since Li Dong had come to Beijing, he had to do more things to avoid wasting everyone's time.
…
Just as Li Dong and Minister Zhang were drinking tea.
In a courtyard house in Beijing.
Cheng Hui lowered his head and didn't speak. Opposite him sat a man and a woman.
The woman was his second sister, Cheng Ying.
As for the man, he looked somewhat similar to Cheng Hui, but he was much more masculine and had a more domineering temperament.
Cheng Gang had just returned from America.
Even though he had slept with his fourth brother's wife in America, Cheng Gang didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, he became even more dignified.
When Cheng Hui finished speaking, Cheng Gang said with a straight face, "I told you long ago not to use these tricks! Did you turn a deaf ear to what I said? Even I don't want to provoke Li Dong. How dare you have designs on his woman? If you're crazy, you should go see a doctor. Don't cause me any trouble! "
Cheng Hui's face turned pale. He clenched his fists but didn't say anything.
He was already in his forties, but in front of his boss, he was no different from a grandson.
Cheng Ying advised, "Big Brother, let's not talk about Fourth Brother. Since things have come to this, we can only think of a way to solve it. Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Fourth Brother also suffered. Don't you think we should … "
Cheng Gang snorted. "There's a lot of things to do at home. There's a lot of trouble, and you're still causing trouble outside! If it weren't for the fact that you're not young anymore, I would have slapped you to death! Come with me to the entrepreneur's annual meeting the day after tomorrow. We'll meet Li Dong. After all, it's not a big deal. Think of a way to solve it peacefully. You only know how to cause trouble. How did the Cheng family give birth to a useless person like you! "
Cheng Hui's face turned red again. He couldn't hold it in any longer. He raised his head and said angrily, "I'm useless. I'm useless because someone forced me to! I'm sick in the head. It's also someone's fault! "
Cheng Gang's eyes flashed. He said coldly, "Fourth Brother, are you talking to me?"
Cheng Hui felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his heart. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Cheng Gang said coldly, "Don't forget the rules! You impudent thing. If you dare speak to me like that again, I'll break all your dog teeth! "
Cheng Ying saw Cheng Hui's fists were clenched tightly. The veins on his face were bulging. He couldn't help but say, "Big Brother, don't be angry.
You've been in America for so long. I have something to report to you.
We still don't have the upper hand over Gome.
JP Morgan and the others have been wavering. Du Juan has used Huang Guangyu's influence to intimidate many people.
"Also, Du Juan has always wanted to cooperate with Li Dong. She wants to bring Li Dong in to restrain the others.
"Now, we're not in a good situation. We don't have the confidence to win. Big Brother, if this goes on, they might really turn the tables …
"What do you think about Du Juan?"
Cheng Gang didn't look at Cheng Hui anymore. He said in a low voice, "There's no hurry. It's not like I didn't do anything during my trip to America.
I've talked to the people in charge of a few investment banks and capital organizations.
We'll work together to stir up Gome!
Of course, their goal is to stir up the market. We're not. Our goal is to seize control of Gome!
"Let's bear with it for now and wait for the other families to respond before we act.
There's no use in being impatient. Without sufficient capital, we can't shake the Huang family's position. "
"That Du Juan is still a scourge …"
Before Cheng Ying could finish his sentence, Cheng Gang said, "Soon. I'm making arrangements, but we can't rush it. "Also, we got lucky this time. We still have to split the profits with that person. Don't just focus on us. Think about other things."
Cheng Gang glanced at Cheng Hui and said coldly, "After this, you don't have to worry about Shanghai anymore. Leave it to Third Brother! If you cause any more trouble, I'll skin you alive! "
Cheng Hui's face was contorted. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Got it!"
"Good. Get lost. You can't do anything right!"
Cheng Hui stood up and left without saying a word.
He could endure what others couldn't. Otherwise, he would have been killed by his boss. If he hadn't sensed Li Dong's ruthlessness, he wouldn't have come looking for him.
Cheng Hui even thought to himself that it would be best if Cheng Hui and Li Dong went against each other.
Both of them were ruthless. It would be best to kill one of them!
Cheng Hui knew that the possibility of that happening wasn't high.
After Cheng Hui left, Cheng Ying sighed. "Big Brother, we're all brothers. Don't be too harsh on Fourth Brother."
Cheng Gang was no longer as cold and gloomy as before. He smiled. "I know what I'm doing. He's a jade that isn't cut and polished. I'm doing this for his own good. He's the one who causes the most trouble in our family. I have to take care of him now that Mom and Dad are gone. "
"That's true. Fourth Brother is the same. He wasn't as bad as he is now, but he's getting worse … "
Cheng Ying sighed and didn't say anything else.
Cheng Ying bade farewell to Cheng Gang and left.
Cheng Gang slowly got up and looked out the door. His eyes were still as cold as ever.
After a long time, Cheng Gang muttered, "Li Dong? Everyone says that you're ruthless, but I think that's all. I have to admit that you're ruthless enough to kill Fourth Brother … "
Cheng Gang sneered and returned to his room. As for the conflict between Li Dong and Fourth Brother, he couldn't be bothered.
As long as Li Dong didn't implicate the Cheng family, it was enough.
