12 billion shares versus 10.4 billion shares.
41.38% versus 35.86%.
The gap between the two parties is bigger than before.
But at this moment, the Huang family no longer has any trump cards. Many people had been paying attention to the unlisted retail stores.
Now that the unlisted retail stores have been injected, the Huang family and Li Dong are left with the final battle.
Soon!
The final battle is coming soon.
Many people realized this, including some ordinary citizens, and they all felt the last bit of peace.
The battle for Gome had added a lot of color to the last few days of 2008.
…
Hotel.
Li Dong was talking to Ma Weihua.
Both parties communicated for a long time. In the end, Li Dong said calmly, "Brother Ma, everyone knows my situation.
Gome might resume trading on New Year's Day.
I only need to wait for the loan from China Construction Bank. There is no need for additional loans.
Brother Ma, if you help me at this time, I will owe you a favor.
If you don't help me, I have no choice but to accept it.
Today is the 28th. I can't wait any longer. "
Ma Weihua could feel Li Dong's heavy heart. After a while, he said, "The board of directors has agreed. I will hold a shareholders' meeting today. I will help with the China Banking Regulatory Commission. You and I will try to get it approved within three days! That way, the funds will be transferred around New Year's Day! "
"Thank you, Brother. I will remember this favor."
"Let's not talk about this. I hope you can succeed."
Li Dong hung up the phone after chatting for a while.
Li Dong sat down on the sofa and sighed. "If it wasn't for Jiangbei's 3 billion support, we would be in trouble. Now that we have 2.1 billion and the remaining funds, we can only use about 1 billion.
Including the Weibo shares, we have spent 13 billion in total!
Now, Gome has 29 billion shares.
Together with JP Morgan, we have 12 billion shares.
Next, we will issue 6 billion shares. The ratio is between 20% and 35 billion shares.
If we want to suppress them completely, we will need to hold 17.5 billion shares. That's 5.5 billion shares short. As for the 6 billion shares … "
Everyone was silent. This was an almost impossible task.
Even if it was completed, 5.5 billion shares would not be cheap.
Although Gome was only worth about HKD 1.05 before the suspension, after the restructuring, Gome's value will increase.
Under normal circumstances, there would be a lot of good news after a restructuring and listing. Even if new shares were issued, the stock price would not fall. Instead, it would rise.
It might be difficult to double it. After all, Gome's total market value would exceed 70 billion.
But it will not be difficult to raise it to 1.5 HKD.
Its market value was 52.5 billion HKD, which was the peak of Gome.
Compared to before, with the addition of Li Dong and the injection of 358 new stores and Gome brand, as well as the funds raised from the new shares, and the cash from the previous capital injection.
If it were not for Gome's internal strife, it would not be difficult for the shares to rise to 2 HKD per share.
As long as Gome could recover his previous combat strength, it was only a matter of time before he rose again.
So far, if he wants to acquire 5.5 billion shares, he will need to invest at least 8 billion HKD, which is about 7 billion RMB.
In addition to the 13 billion RMB investment, he will need to invest 20 billion RMB.
This was the best case scenario. In fact, the share price might rise in the later stages.
20 billion RMB to control half of Gome's shares was more difficult than Li Dong had expected, and he had to invest more.
Sun Tao kept quiet for a while and said. "We can only do two things at the same time. We still need to discuss with the other shareholders, and we need to increase our efforts in the market.
All in all, we need to prepare at least 7 billion RMB in capital.
With the 5 billion from China Merchants Bank and our 1 billion now, we need at least 1 billion RMB.
As for the Group, we can't transfer a single cent.
Also, 7 billion RMB is the bottom line. I think it's safer to prepare 8 billion RMB.
The difference is close to 2 billion RMB … "
Li Dong did not mind and laughed. "It's difficult for us, but it's harder for Old Huang. He had used up most of his money to buy back the shares. The 1 billion RMB that he invested was borrowed from others. This time, he got back 2 billion HKD. Even if he still has 1 billion RMB, he will need to prepare 8 billion RMB if he wants the controlling stake. I am short of 2 billion RMB, and he is short of 7 billion RMB. Who do you think has more pressure? "
After analyzing their opponent's situation, everyone's expression became better.
With a difference of 7 billion RMB, Old Huang will not be able to borrow so much even if he sells everything he has.
Of course, Old Huang does not want to have the absolute controlling stake. From his point of view, he owns more shares than Li Dong, and as long as Li Dong does not get the chance to have the controlling stake, he will not lose.
Li Dong continued. "Of course, our demands are different. I want the absolute controlling stake, and I need to raise more money. But by that time, the loan from China Construction Bank will be coming soon. Even if the loan is not coming soon, I can raise more money. It should not be a problem. "
At this moment, Li Dong looked at Shen Qian. 'Wife, I really need to beg you.'
He has no choice. At this juncture, he does not care about his reputation.
Li Dong will have the chance to get back his capital and earn more 2 billion RMB after obtaining the controlling stake of Gome. If not, everything will be for naught.
Shen Qian understood what Dong Xuebing meant. She is not unhappy, and she smiles happily.
She feels good to have Li Dong's support at this critical juncture. At least, it proves that she can help him.
Twisting his neck, Li Dong smiled and said, "There's only one last hurdle left in the long march of ten thousand miles. It's nothing more than money. Also, we need to find an organization to buy back the shares when the trading resumes and issue new shares! I do not know much about this. You all can go and find an organization. It doesn't matter if you are reliable and spend more money. But if you drop the ball at this critical juncture, you all better make it clear. Whoever drops the ball will die a horrible death! We can give them the money, but if the shares are snatched away, I will not let this matter rest! "
Li Dong's words are very serious, but everyone can understand his mood.
Everything is ready. If the intermediary organization sabotages it at this time, which leads to Li Dong's failure, it is not surprising that he will kill them.
Moreover, they have to find a third-party organization. How can they handle the trading of billions of shares by themselves?
If they really rely on themselves, the shares would have been snatched away long ago.
Sun Tao and the others nodded solemnly. Shen Qian said again, "President Chen is still in Hong Kong. I will go to Hong Kong tomorrow. This is the Hong Kong stock trading. It is necessary to have someone there. I will be more at ease if I lead the team. "
"No, I will go by myself!"
Li Dong chuckled and said, "Old Huang can't leave the realm now, so I'll personally go over to keep watch. I'm much more decisive than he is, which is also his disadvantage. If Du Juan dares to go, I will ask Wang Yue to hold a board meeting and dismiss her from the position of president! I want to see how he can fight with me by phone without seeing the specific situation. Besides, he has no money, and the Chaoshang businessmen did not lend him money for nothing. But there are many Chaoshang tycoons in Hong Kong. I will go to visit them this time, in case they make trouble at this time. "
There are many Chaoshan businessmen in Hong Kong, and they are not weak.
The most famous one is, of course, Old Li of Changjiang.
In addition, there is also Mr. Zhuang, the founder of Nanyang Commercial Bank. However, the old man passed away in 2007, but his descendants are still alive. It is hard to say whether he still cares about his hometown or not.
In addition, Cai Zhiming, the founder of Xuri, the toy king of Hong Kong, is also from Chaoshan.
To put it more broadly, Lao Xiang, the tycoon in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, is also from Chaoshan.
These are not Cantonese businessmen. More than half of the rich people in Hong Kong are Cantonese businessmen.
In this case, Li Dong has to prevent them from taking action. Although these people may not take action, it can be used as a precaution. That is what Li Dong needs.
Shen Qian slightly frowned and said, "If you go, what about the group? Now Gome is not the only one. We have too many things to do in January. The official launch of the OPPO mobile phone, the promotion of the QR code scanning payment system, and whether to promote the O2O in Yu Province to the whole of East China … These are not small things … "
"Leave it to Boss Yuan and the others!"
Li Dong shook his head and said, "I can't manage everything. These things will happen naturally. If they can't even handle this, how can I count on them? If they really can't do it, then I will replace them! While I have not retired and can still control the overall situation, it is a good thing to replace them with someone I can rest assured so that I don't have to manage everything. It is time to test them. Whether they can hold on or not depends on themselves. "
After hearing Li Dong say this, Shen Qian did not continue to say anything, but still said, "Then I will go with you."
"Okay, just treat it as a vacation. I don't think I have gone anywhere with you all these years. This time we are going to Xiangjiang, we can take a walk and relax. "
The two of them settled the matter in a few words, and Sun Tao did not care about them. Instead, he said, "Then I will continue to stay here and cooperate with Boss Wang to clean up the internal affairs. In addition, I will contact CRMC again. Since they are willing to sell their shares, there is a need to continue the negotiation. I will see if I can buy some shares from them. "
"Okay, do as you see fit. As long as it does not exceed 1.5 HKD, you can buy it. I don't believe that they will not be tempted by a premium of more than 40%. At that time, after the resumption of trading, it is uncertain whether they will be able to increase by 40%. After all, although this is a capital increase and restructuring, the share capital has also been divided. Overall, the share value will not change much. Even with the impact of good news, it will not rise to more than 40%. "
Although he said that, in fact, Li Dong knew that it was still very likely that it would rise to 1.5 HKD.
After all, Gome had changed too much this time.
Sun Tao nodded and accepted the task.
…
December 29th.
The third day of the twelfth lunar month.
This year's twelfth lunar month came earlier than usual.
The restructuring of Gome was still going on. At this moment, everyone was working overtime to strive for the resumption of trading as soon as possible.
The outside world was also quiet.
Before the resumption of trading, it was a rare quiet period. Everyone had to maintain their energy and pay attention to the situation after the resumption of trading.
This might be the most exciting equity war since the beginning of 2009.
The end of 2008 was approaching. In the last few days, everyone had to take a rest. In addition, they had to thank Li Dong for the truce in the past few days. Otherwise, they would not even have time to rest.
Li Dong naturally declined the gratitude of the onlookers.
On the 29th, Li Dong went to the Du family again to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
It was already the twelfth lunar month. Next, he had to go to Hong Kong and did not know when he would come back.
Before, Li Dong had said that before the end of the year, his parents would come to discuss the marriage.
At that time, he might not be able to spare time. If he was delayed, he might not have time to come at all.
However, no matter what, his parents would still come.
Li Dong told them in advance that even if he didn't come, his parents would be there. He would come to make up for it later, so that the marriage wouldn't be delayed.
On such a big matter, even Shen Xuehua, who was calculative, could understand Li Dong.
The struggle for the equity of Gome was now at the last moment. According to Shen Xuehua, a company worth tens of billions of yuan could be postponed to next year if it was too busy.
It was not easy for Li Dong to come and say hello at this time.
Moreover, even if he succeeded in acquiring Gome, he still had to integrate and eliminate the influence of the Huang family, which was a big deal.
As for when the wedding would be held, it was up to Li Dong.
If he was too busy and couldn't care about other things, Shen Xuehua and Du Anmin could bear with it for a period of time even if they knew that their daughter was getting on in years.
The two of them weren't ordinary people. They could understand the impact of acquiring Gome on Far Away. This was the best time to establish the number one retail giant Far Away.
After this battle, in the next ten years, almost no other retail company could compete with Far Away.
The significance was so great that even if they couldn't understand it, they had to force themselves to understand it.
…
After bidding farewell to the Du couple.
After leaving the City Hall, Li Dong heaved a sigh of relief. He said to Shen Qian, who followed him out, "I have to go back to Jiangbei now. Since I still have time, I should go back and talk to my parents. Do you want to come with me?"
Shen Qian's face was a little red. "Is it appropriate?"
Li Dong was speechless. He said helplessly, "We're talking about marriage, how is it inappropriate? Now, you're my fiancée, the daughter-in-law of Old Li's family. We have to meet in this capacity. Even if you're an ugly daughter-in-law, you have to meet your parents-in-law. "
Shen Qian and Li Chengyuan knew each other, but when they first met, Li Dong's official girlfriend was still Qin Yuhan, and she was just a member of the group.
Now, everything had changed.
It was indeed necessary to meet them again.
Shen Qian was not a shy person. She nodded and said, "Then I'll go back with you."
"Well, we'll leave in the afternoon and get home in the evening. We'll stay at home for two days. After settling the matter with Gome, we'll go to Hong Kong right away. "
…
On the afternoon of the 29th, Li Dong left the capital.
As soon as he left, the atmosphere in the capital suddenly became relaxed.
Even Old Huang felt a lot more relaxed at this time, even though he knew that it was only temporary and the battle was not in the capital.
But Li Dong was right under his nose, ready to attack him at any time. This feeling was really uncomfortable.
…
At the same time …
The sound of people exhaling could be heard in all the mansions in the capital.
Some of the second-generation heirs were overjoyed. The devil was finally gone!
During this time in the capital, the second-generation heirs with a weak family background did not dare to go out casually, nor did they dare to show up in public.
Li Dong was an existence that specialized in bullying them in the circle of second-generation heirs.
In the capital, too many second-generation heirs had been bullied by him.
The title of "devil" was not given casually. It was a nickname given by some of the top heirs after many confrontations.
However, a lot of tycoons were optimistic about Li Dong, and Li Dong himself had worked hard. Apart from other things, the incident in Sichuan Province and the defeat of foreign retail companies made many people feel that Li Dong had done a good job!
Also, the international version of Weibo had made many people pay more attention to Li Dong.
If he really defeated Facebook and Twitter, Hua Xia would have a mouthpiece to the outside world, which was very important.
Even if it was restricted and it was impossible to directly advocate for the government, at least it could guarantee that there would be a way to fight back when it was slandered.
In this case, even people like Jiang Bin did not dare to provoke Li Dong, let alone others.
As soon as Li Dong left, everyone was naturally overjoyed. Finally, they could have a good time.
A few days ago, they did not even dare to celebrate Christmas, but on New Year's Day, they could finally celebrate!
