Outside Gome's headquarters.
Huang Guangyu was not in a hurry to leave.
When Li Dong arrived, Old Huang said slowly, "Li Dong, are you sure you want to continue?"
Li Dong grinned and said, "Now that things have come to this, is there still a need to ask?
To put it bluntly, if I quit now, the loss will be greater.
Instead of that, it's better to continue. I can rest assured after we take over Gome.
Also, I want to tell you one more thing. In the next few days, before December 30th, we will continue to hold a shareholders' meeting to discuss the transfer of shares.
Once the transfer is successful, our shareholding ratio may completely surpass you.
When that time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless.
That was how it worked in the business world.
If I, Li Dong, am not as good as others and am taken Far Away, then I have to admit it. What do you think, Director Huang? "
Huang Guangyu nodded and said, "That's what I think. At this time, it will depend on everyone's strength. But is General Manager Li sure that he can win? "
"I'm not sure. But how will I know if I don't try?"
"That's true."
Huang Guangyu smiled and sighed. "Originally, we could have cooperated and become the best partners. Unfortunately, General Manager Li forced me to the road to death. Then, he can't blame me for being ruthless. "
"Hehe."
Li Dong smiled perfunctorily. Friendship?
How much is friendship worth?
Besides, do we have friendship?
At this point, apart from not fighting, they have shed all pretense of cordiality.
Li Dong was too lazy to refute Old Huang's words.
After a perfunctory reply, Li Dong turned to Wang Yue and said, "Speed up the capital increase in the next few days. Also, tell the shareholders not to leave as much as possible. After a few days, when we are ready, we will hold a meeting to discuss the transfer of shares. "
Wang Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I got it. Also, we can't just focus on this. These days, because of some external factors, some of the senior management have been slacking and even dereliction of duty. Next, I will be in charge of arresting these people and hold some of them accountable. I hope that General Manager Li can give me more support at the shareholders' meeting. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "As long as there is concrete evidence, I, as a shareholder, will certainly support the board's decision! It's not like this is a one-man enterprise! Far away, I have the final say, but in Gome, all the shareholders have the final say! No matter who is involved, you will be held accountable. The shareholders are your biggest backers and will give you the greatest support. No shareholders can tolerate the existence of a black sheep! "
As he said this, Li Dong looked at Du Juan and the others and said faintly, "As the CEO and senior management of Gome, don't indulge yourself too much. Once you fail to fulfill your duties, either resign or don't blame me for cleaning you up! "
"…"
Some of the people on the other side had ugly expressions, some were hesitant, and some were furious.
However, there was no way to refute this. They had positions in Gome and were paid. That meant they had to work for the enterprise.
Li Dong was different. He was a shareholder, and Wang Yue was a director. It was fine as long as Wang Yue was there.
Du Juan was still the CEO. If she gave up her duties too much, it would give Li Dong something to use against her.
Huang Guangyu did not refute. He nodded slightly and turned to the people around him. "Go to work in the company. You don't have to follow me anymore. As for the black sheep, my suggestion is the same as General Manager Li's. Punish them severely! "
After saying this, Old Huang got into the car and left.
At this time, he could already feel the heavy pressure.
He had to raise the money immediately. Even with Yi Wei around, he could not rest assured.
Also, he had to communicate with JP Morgan Chase and CRMC.
Finally, there was Cheng Xiao. Now that things had come to this, he had to go and comfort her.
…
After Old Huang left, Li Dong got into the car with the others.
As soon as they got into the car, Shen Qian asked anxiously, "Are we going to transfer shares immediately?"
Li Dong exhaled and nodded. "On one hand, it's to force him to inject Yi Wei immediately. On the other hand, it's to prevent any accidents from happening.
If he really refuses to inject, I'll transfer shares and take back JP Morgan Chase's shares.
When that time comes, I'll have absolute control of the company.
"All I want is their stores. Although I'll pay a lot in exchange for the stores, I'll lose a lot.
"But I can't wait any longer.
Today, Zhang Jindong came, Best Buy's people came, Grand Trio's people came …
"These people are likely to become my hindrance.
"Everyone says I'm shameless, but these bastards are even more shameless!
"Don't think I don't know that they're putting pressure on me." They think I'll restrain myself just because they're around?
"What a joke!
"At this time, I'll kill anyone who dares to stop me!
"With the two billion, I'll have invested 13 billion.
"I didn't even spend that much when I acquired Carrefour.
"And it's not even all of them. Will I slow down just because I'm afraid of them?
"If Old Huang is willing to inject, then it'll be good for everyone.
"If he's not willing, then I'll do as I said. I'll just change the brand and operate under the brand Far away.
"As for the unlisted part, I want to see how Gome, which has more than 300 stores left, can continue to compete at this time!
"In the end, they'll have to sell it and I'll take it over. It might be cheaper!"
Shen Qian said, "Since you're thinking about this, then let's be straightforward. While everyone is still here, call for a shareholders' meeting and transfer shares! Kill them in one blow and give up the remaining stores! "
Li Dong was speechless. "You're more anxious than I am. I'm just saying it. If we really give up, Gome's distribution of home appliances across the country will be incomplete. If we lose a third of our territory, the value will be greatly reduced. That'll be a big loss for me. "
Shen Qian rolled her eyes. "You said it as if it were true. I really believed you!"
…
At the same time.
In the car.
Huang Guangyu said into the phone, "Old Zhang, if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. You know this better than me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have called me. But do you think I'll agree to add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation? "
"Old Huang, we've known each other for many years. We've been rivals for so many years. Now that we're working together against the enemy, it'll be a good story. "But Suning is a listed company, after all. I'm not the only one who has the final say. There are some things that I have to explain to everyone. "I'm not as greedy as Li Dong. Chasing Li Dong away is a good thing for both of us. At the very least, I can't be ruthless, but Li Dong will be ruthless. "
Zhang Jindong's tone was serious and sincere. Without waiting for Huang Guangyu to speak, he said, "The situation is urgent now. You have restrictions on your side. Time waits for no man. Any mistake and we'll lose everything. Old Huang, there are some things you need to make a decision quickly. "
Huang Guangyu sighed. "Yes, time waits for no man."
At this moment, he felt a little sad like a hero past his prime.
I seem to be really old.
Zhang Jindong still had fighting spirit, but his fighting spirit had been worn down a lot.
At this time, Zhang Jindong did not forget to take advantage of the situation. He had forgotten that he had used Suning to counter Li Dong.
But it was not too late now. Zhang Jindong reminded him. Didn't Li Dong use Far away to threaten Gome?
Now, he could only pull chestnuts out of the fire and survive.
Thinking of this, Huang Guangyu said in a low voice, "Then we can talk about Yiwei's intention to transfer! Including … the Gome brand! "
On the other side of the phone, Zhang Jindong's eyes narrowed. Although he knew that this was Old Huang's trick, he was willing to take it.
Whether it succeeded or not, if it succeeded, it would be easy. Gome and Suning would become one. One-third of Gome's stores would become Suning's stores. The benefits were unquestionable.
Even if it failed, it was fine.
At the very least, Li Dong's side would not feel good. Yiwei's value was too high, and Li Dong would have to spend a lot of money.
In the end, Old Huang might be able to make a comeback.
Killing two birds with one stone. He didn't have to pay anything, and at this critical time, he could let Suning join the fight and spread the name of Suning. What a cost-effective business.
"Okay, then let's find a time to talk in detail!"
"Tonight!"
"Okay!"
The two quickly made a decision. Not long after Huang Guangyu hung up the phone, another call came in.
After chatting for a while, they hung up again.
Then, calls came in one after another.
After a long time, Old Huang's frown slowly stretched out, and he murmured, "A just cause enjoys much support, while an unjust cause finds little support. Li Dong, your ambition is too big, so big that everyone is afraid. If you want to take down Gome, it depends on whether others are willing or not. "
At this time, his former competitors had become his supporters.
Among his peers, almost no one was willing to let Li Dong take down Gome.
Best Buy, Grand Trio, and even the acquired Five Stars and Dazhong did not want this to happen.
Therefore, many people were willing to support him in secret.
After Old Huang said that, he laughed at himself. Although it was a good thing that someone was willing to support him.
But this also showed that the threat that Li Dong posed to everyone was ten times stronger than him!
No one was afraid of Old Huang, nor did they care that Old Huang continued to control Gome.
But everyone was afraid, afraid that the young man would control Gome, leaving no room for others to live.
To be able to make his peers so afraid, even if Li Dong really lost this time, it was enough to shock an area.
…
That afternoon.
The major media continued to follow up with reports.
Huang Guangyu was released on bail pending trial, attended the shareholders' meeting, and started a fight with Li Dong …
At the shareholders' meeting, Huang Guangyu's side was losing ground, and finally, Li Dong got the upper hand and passed the capital increase resolution.
Li Dong increased the capital by two billion, and the Huang family increased the capital by one billion.
At this point, Li Dong's side held 34.78% of the shares, and the Huang family held 37.39%.
The gap between the two sides was further narrowing, and if this happened a few more times, the Huang family might lose their position as the largest shareholder.
The fight for the shares was becoming clearer and faster.
…
And just as the last news went viral.
Following that, some people in the know revealed a few new pieces of news.
Li Dong's side held a large amount of Gome convertible bonds, and would be converting it before the end of the month. Once it was successful, they might be able to gain control.
On the other side, Huang Guangyu was not doing nothing.
Some people said that they saw Huang Guangyu and Zhang Jindong eating together, and that they might be discussing the transfer of Yiwei.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that this information was most likely released by them.
Both sides were increasing the pressure on the other side.
In the end, it seemed that there was still a battle to decide who would win. The fight for the shares was getting more and more intense.
…
The Christmas Gome fight added a lot of atmosphere to the festive day.
However, on the 26th, a piece of news made Gome the topic of everyone's discussion again!
CRMC decided to reduce its shares of Gome by 400 million!
CRMC originally held 1.4 billion shares, and this time, it reduced its shares by 400 million, leaving only one billion shares. Although it was still a lot, after the capital increase, it only held about 4.35% of the shares.
Less than 5% of the shares made CRMC's importance a lot less.
But that wasn't what people cared about. What was more important was who would take over!
Baoneng Group!
At this point, before the fight for Baoneng Group, the Precious Energy Department surfaced in advance!
The Tide Gang made their move!
The Precious Energy Department became famous in the future because they almost took away the controlling shares of Vanke.
The leader of the Precious Energy Department was one of the leaders of the Tide Gang.
In the outside world, Chaoshan businessmen had always been synonymous with unity.
From the mouths of Old Huang and Old Li of Xiangjiang, there was a saying — businessmen have no territory!
This wasn't just the words of the two of them, but the words of all the big businessmen in the Tide Gang.
The last time Du Juan went to Chaoshan to ask for help, Old Huang was released from prison, these two events were linked together, and finally, the people of the Tide Gang decided to help their fellow countrymen.
From the fight for Baoneng Group in the future, it could be seen that the person of the Precious Energy Department wasn't a pushover, and his strength was extremely strong.
At this critical moment, the other party took over 400 million shares. It didn't seem like a lot, but it represented a trend. The Tide Gang might continue to exert its power.
Once more people took over, it might completely break out in the business world!
…
When the news of the Tide Gang's move came out, it caused a sensation everywhere.
Jiangbei.
At the base of the Fraternity.
Hsu Shengzhe's face was livid, and he said angrily, "The Cantonese businessmen have made their move!
The fight between Li Dong and Gome originally had nothing to do with us. They fought to the death, and that was their own competition!
But now, the Cantonese businessmen didn't abide by the rules, and took the initiative to make their move. That means they are looking down on us, the Jiangbei Merchants!
Outsiders say that the people of the Tide Gang work together, but when we, the Jiangbei Merchants, rose up, they were still fishing for a living!
Grouping up is not something that the Tide Gang can do!
If we still don't make our move this time, who will take us, the Jiangbei Merchants, seriously in the future?
No matter what, Li Dong is the soul of our business. If he loses this time, the Jiangbei Merchants will be completely suppressed!
Didn't Baoneng Group take over 400 million shares?
Who is Yao Zhenghua trying to threaten?
Who is he trying to scare?
The Precious Energy Department is rich, but does our Jiangbei Merchants lack money?
Everyone, this is no longer about Li Dong, it's about the reputation and status of our entire business!
Zhang Jindong still dares to cause trouble at this time. I don't care if it's because of other reasons, I want him to immediately withdraw from the fight!
Otherwise, from now on, he will be a member of the Su Gang, and will have nothing to do with us, the Jiangbei Merchants! "
The meeting room was very quiet. When Hsu Shengzhe finished speaking, someone slowly said, "Now that things have come to this, we really can't sit back and do nothing. Director Xu, contact General Manager Li and see if he needs help. Don't ruin things with good intentions. If he needs help, General Manager Li, just say the word. We can't afford more, but I have no problem with one or two hundred million! "
Hu Ming smiled faintly and said, "Tell Li Dong to go all out!
There are many rich people in Chaoshan. We are a little weak, but how big is Chaoshan, and how big is Jiangbei!
The Tide Gang from Xiangjiang has not made a move yet, what's there to be afraid of?
I don't have much on my side. One billion or eight hundred million. It's just a matter of a word. It's been so many years. If we don't make a move, people will really think that we're gone.
Call Wang Chuanfu, Shi Yuzhu, and the others. Call all the Jiangbei Chambers of Commerce. If you can help, help. If you can't, we won't blame you!
But if we join the Tide Gang at this time, we can forget about being Jiangbei people in the future. We'll go back to where we belong! "
Everyone echoed. Hsu Shengzhe smiled and nodded. He smiled at Hu Ming and said, "Uncle Hu, you're so domineering. That's what I mean! We can't let go of people's hearts. If we do, we will lose our roots. In the future, we really won't be able to survive outside. We won't get involved in one-on-one fights, but we can't bear to fight as a team. I'll call Li Dong later. I'm afraid that guy is in a terrible fix now. "
Everyone laughed and said, "It's good to let him be anxious. General Manager Li has always been domineering. It's quite interesting to see him anxious this time."
Laughter was heard in the meeting room.
As for the confrontation with the Tide Gang, no one cared. After all, most of these guys were in Hong Kong and Macao.
In the mainland, although the Jiangbei Merchants had declined, they were not afraid of those guys.
