In the real estate industry, there weren't many people who had grudges with Li Dong.
Now, there were even fewer people who would talk like that in front of everyone.
As for the others, even if they were dissatisfied with Li Dong, they wouldn't say it out loud, especially in front of everyone.
As soon as Li Dong heard it, he knew who it was. It was none other than Ren Dapao.
Li Dong and Ren Qiang still had some grudges.
In 2007, Changjiang Business School organized a visit to Hua Yuan, and all the students from Li Dong's batch went.
As a result, during the meal, the two didn't get along and argued with each other.
If it weren't for the dean, Xiang Bing, and the others, the two would have quarreled on the spot.
Even so, the two didn't talk very politely.
Li Dong used the Real Estate Top 100 List as an example. Hua Yuan had been in the top 100 list a few years ago, but when the list was released in 2007, Hua Yuan was nowhere to be seen. However, Dong Yu, who was far away, was on the list.
Ren Dapao almost choked to death after hearing those words.
Ren Qiang didn't want to be outdone and retorted to Li Dong on the spot. Dong Yu sold the land, and there might not be a Dong Yu Real Estate in the future.
Because of this, the two almost never talked to each other when they met.
Both of them had attended yesterday's annual meeting for entrepreneurs. Li Dong had interacted with most of the people present, except for Ren Qiang.
Ren Qiang was also a proud person. If Li Dong ignored him, he wouldn't care about Li Dong.
However, Li Dong's reputation in the business world was a hundred times better than his.
In addition, both of them were known as cannons, and they both had cannon personalities. Outsiders only knew Li Dong now, but they didn't know that there was another cannon in the industry. This made Ren Qiang even more dissatisfied with Li Dong.
At today's gathering, Li Dong hadn't arrived yet, and everyone subconsciously regarded Li Dong as the main guest.
Even when the number one Vanke and Wang Shi had arrived, but Li Dong hadn't arrived yet, everyone still didn't care and continued to wait for Li Dong to arrive. This made Ren Qiang even more dissatisfied.
Hence, he said those words just now.
As Ren Qiang spoke, the door was pushed open.
Everyone subconsciously looked towards the door, and when they saw Li Dong, they raised their eyebrows slightly.
Hsu Shengzhe hurriedly smiled and said, "Dongzi, we were just waiting for you. Was there a traffic jam?"
When Ren Dapao said that Li Dong had to be the finale, he wasn't getting angry for no reason.
They had agreed to meet at 7: 00, and it was almost 7: 10 now. They were indeed a bit late.
Hsu Shengzhe, of course, knew Li Dong's character. He had probably heard Ren Dapao's words just now. He was afraid that the two of them would fall out the moment they met, so he helped Li Dong find a way out.
Upon hearing this, Li Dong chuckled and said, "There was a bit of a traffic jam, so I'm late. Sorry. But I've always felt that the banquet wouldn't start until 7: 30. I came early on purpose, but who knew that everyone would be so punctual today. I was rash. "
Li Dong made a joke, and the others laughed when they heard it. "That's our fault. It's not punctuality. The Annual Gala is over, so we came together on the way. You didn't attend, so it's normal to be late."
Li Dong chuckled and exchanged a few pleasantries, ignoring Ren Qiang.
After the pleasantries were over, Li Dong looked at Ren Qiang and said with a smile, "Just now, President Ren seemed to be quite dissatisfied with me. He said that I'm not even fit to be a real estate developer. These words made me feel bitterly disappointed."
Seeing that Li Dong was making things difficult, Wang Shi, who had a good relationship with Ren Qiang, quickly smiled and said, "General Manager Li, Old Ren was just joking. That's his character. He can't stop talking. Since General Manager Li is here, let's start the banquet. We can talk while eating."
Li Dong chuckled and said, "President Wang, don't misunderstand. I'm not someone who finds fault for no reason.
I admit that I'm late, and I apologized just now.
But you said that I'm not even a real estate developer. Although I feel that the title of a real estate developer doesn't do me any good, I can't help but grumble.
In the Real Estate Top 100 List released in March of 2008, Dong Yu Real Estate didn't have any results. In 2007, they sold another batch of land, so their ranking wasn't very good.
When the list was released, Dong Yu continued to be at the bottom, ranked 82.
But fortunately, I'm still on the list.
Some companies have been on the list for years, but they can't even touch their butts. I don't understand why some people are so shameless to say that I, Li Dong, am not a real estate developer? "
Ren Qiang's face stiffened. Damn it, I knew you were going to use this!
It was the same last time. Last year, Dong Yu was even worse, but it was still on the list, ranked 99.
But that time, Li Dong also used this against him, leaving him speechless.
Again this year!
Although Dong Yu didn't make any moves in 2007 and didn't make any achievements, it was still on a large scale.
The Real Estate Top 100 List didn't look at sales results, but overall strength.
Far away sold a batch of land last year, but they bought another batch of land later on. With the Far Away brand, their strength was even stronger than before.
When the list was released in March of this year, Dong Yu actually advanced a little, ranked 82.
On the other hand, Hua Yuan was still the same, with no hope of getting on the list.
Now that Li Dong used this again, Ren Qiang was furious. "Li Dong, you don't have to scold me!
What I said was right, and I won't deny it either!
Is there a problem with me saying that you're not a real estate developer?
Tell me, has Dong Yu achieved any results in the past few years?
Your Far Away City plan is just a castle in the air. Other than taking the land, what else can you do?
Your residential real estate is a blank. Since last year, have you opened any residential areas?
In Su 'an, you invested in a shopping mall, but most of it is for your own use. Can such a real estate company be considered a real estate company? "
Seeing Ren Qiang's retaliation, Wang Shi couldn't help but signal to him.
The current Hua Yuan was not on the same level as Far Away.
And Ren Qiang and Li Dong were not on the same level either.
For such a small matter, it wasn't worth getting into an argument with Li Dong.
Ren Qiang saw it too, but that was his temper. He ignored Wang Shi and stared at Li Dong, waiting for his reply.
Li Dong chuckled. "But I'm ranked 82!"
"Li Dong!"
Ren Qiang was fuming. "I'm talking about the results. Don't pester me endlessly!"
Li Dong said calmly. "I'm also talking about the results. Oldman Ren, you're really behind the times.
Even if we don't talk about Dong Yu, I'm Longhua's second largest shareholder.
Longhua is still in the top ten in the industry. Is there a problem with me using this identity to attend a gathering?
As the second largest shareholder, the shares I hold are more than enough to suppress Hua Yuan by one head!
Everyone is here today. I can't be bothered to argue with you about this.
If something like this happens again, don't blame me for blasting you to death. Do you really think you're a cannon? How dare you gossip about others? "
Ren Qiang's face turned green. The others didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but they couldn't just watch the show.
Wu Yajun smiled. She walked over and pulled Li Dong aside. "Alright, what are you doing? Don't make a fool out of yourself. Oldman Ren was just saying. Don't bring up the leaderboard. My Dragon Lake is ranked 15. Am I proud? Wang Shi is ranked first. Is he proud? You're the only one who thinks you can. You still have the cheek to talk about 82 all the time. It's embarrassing. "
Li Dong smiled. "At least I'm in the leaderboard. It's only right for me to be proud. In a few months, I might even be in the top ten."
As Li Dong spoke, the others laughed.
He wasn't wrong. There was still a possibility.
The biggest sensation in the real estate industry this year was Li Dong's 100 billion Far Away City plan.
Now that the land had been bought, the construction was starting.
Although it wasn't built yet, and it wasn't sold yet, the ranking of real estate companies depended on their overall strength.
Dong Yu had hoarded a large amount of land this year. In addition, the Far Away City plan was well-known in Hua Xia. They had to consider this when they counted.
Even if they couldn't be in the top ten, their ranking wouldn't be too low.
Everyone joked around and changed the topic. If they continued, Li Dong definitely wouldn't leave. Ren Qiang would probably leave. It was too embarrassing.
Li Dong kept talking about the leaderboard, but he couldn't refute it.
Wu Yajun was obviously helping Li Dong just now. Although she was joking, she still mentioned the leaderboard. It was obvious that she was helping Li Dong.
In addition, there was also Hsu Shengzhe. The others more or less had to give Li Dong some face.
At this moment, the law of the jungle was vividly reflected.
Ren Qiang had been in this industry for many years. Many of the people present were on good terms with him, including Wang Shi.
But at this juncture, everyone would at most try to mediate, but no one would be biased towards him.
Thinking of this, Ren Qiang seemed a little sad. He didn't say anything to argue with Li Dong.
After all, he was a businessman. Temper was temper, and facts were facts. If he angered Li Dong again, he would be targeted by Far Away City. Hua Yuan wouldn't have a good ending.
…
Without Ren Qiang causing trouble, the dinner quickly began.
On Li Dong's left was Hsu Shengzhe, and on his right was Wu Yajun. They were all familiar faces.
Opposite them was Old Wang.
Seeing Old Wang, Li Dong opened his mouth. Just as he was about to say something, Old Wang hurriedly turned around and conversed with Wang Shi, as if it was an unintentional action.
Li Dong's face darkened. Beside him, Hsu Shengzhe held back his laughter and said in a low voice, "Don't call them nephews anymore. These old men are all afraid of you now. What's the point of calling them nephews and nieces? Who would call you uncle? "
Li Dong said angrily, "Who said that!"
Ignoring him, Li Dong said, "CEO Wang …"
As soon as he said that, Wang Shi, Old Wang, and the other two CEO Wangs all looked over.
Li Dong was speechless. The others also looked at each other. Then, they couldn't help but laugh.
Wang Shi said with a smile, "Don't talk about this and that. Let's all call each other by their names. Li Dong's words reminded me of a joke I heard before. Now, if you walk on the street, you can smash a lot of managers and CEO with a brick. It'll be a joke if you call me CEO in the future. "
Everyone laughed. Li Dong also said, "I call you Old Wang. Whoever is older will be the one to call me."
Old Wang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He put down his chopsticks and said, "Then I'll just call you Old Wang."
Everyone laughed again. Then, Li Dong said, "Old Wang, recently, Wanda has opened a lot of commercial plazas, and there are still many shopping malls under construction.
Wanda Plaza is now a little famous in the country.
Your path is similar to our Far away City, and the positioning is also similar.
As for me, the purpose of building Far away City is to do real estate. More importantly, it's to build a shopping mall and a supermarket.
Today, everyone is here. Although I'm only talking to Old Wang, I hope that everyone can consider it.
Our Faraway Supermarket has now fully cooperated with Longhua and Longhu, and we have entered their shopping malls.
Many of the people here are in the commercial real estate business, and many are building commercial plazas.
What I mean is that in terms of retail, there is no conflict between us. Faraway Supermarket is not a nobody.
Far away is even more famous than Wal-Mart in the country.
So, I have a small suggestion. If the conditions allow, everyone can consider cooperating with us Far away.
I don't dare to say anything else, but in my opinion, Distance is much more stable than other supermarkets.
Other supermarkets will close down easily.
Even Wal-Mart, RT-Mart, and other supermarkets might close down at any time.
Far away is the only place where I have some confidence. Even if their stores in the country close down, we will not.
Carrefour, which used to be like the sun in the sky, has also become a part of Far away.
So, all of you don't need to believe in overseas supermarkets. Anyway, this is not their nest, and they can just close down.
In China, China Resources and Bailian are state-owned enterprises. Cooperating with state-owned enterprises is just average, and the payment is not that fast. Who knows when they will close down due to poor management … … "
Everyone looked at each other. You are talking about closing down, and you are the only one that will not close down?
But at the same time, everyone is shocked by Li Dong's plan.
This guy is still planning to expand!
Faraway Supermarket is already a huge supermarket, and if it continues to expand, Far away will be the biggest supermarket in China.
Li Dong has so many assets?
Also, Li Dong is really daring to say this.
The real estate developers in the room will usually choose a busy location to build a shopping mall, or a location that has the effect of attracting people. All the famous real estate companies have this ability.
They are different from other small real estate companies. Whether a shopping mall is popular or not depends on the location and opportunity.
Otherwise, if the location is not good, no one will care about it.
Only these big companies, even if the location is not good, can still turn waste into treasure and attract people.
If Li Dong really occupies these famous real estate companies' shopping malls, then Faraway Supermarket will have solved one of its biggest drawbacks!
Although Faraway Supermarket is strong, because of its late start, many of the prime locations have been occupied by others.
Far away can only choose to enter and compete with the other party, or choose a more remote location.
However, even Far away is still very dependent on the location.
Retail, supermarket, if the location is not good, and the location is in a remote area, no one will care about you no matter how famous you are.
Just when everyone is deep in thought, Li Dong smiled and said, "Other than the shopping malls, the residential area that everyone is building is more suitable for our community store. Exclusive entry is definitely a good choice for the residents! Some of the high-end residential areas are also fine. Far away will soon launch a boutique supermarket to meet the needs of all the high-end customers. As long as the residents have any needs, Far away will be able to meet them! "
Everyone was stunned again. Damn, such a big appetite!
With this, almost half of the high-end residential areas and shopping malls in Hua Xia are occupied by you.
Almost all the high-end residential areas in the country are controlled by this group of people. Li Dong's appetite is shocking!
