On the 30th, Li Dong rested at home for a day.
Shen Qian accompanied Li Chengyuan and his wife to go shopping.
It was the first time that she came to the Li family as a future daughter-in-law. Shen Qian hoped that she could do her best, hoping to eliminate the grudge between Cao Fang and her husband.
In order to be a good future daughter-in-law, Shen Qian had done a lot of preparation work in advance.
She originally wanted to ask Li Dong's opinion, but in the end, she didn't know anything. Li Dong couldn't say anything either.
This was almost a common problem for children.
As for their parents' hobbies and needs, children actually didn't know much except to give money, buy clothes, and buy nutrition.
It was the same for Li Dong. Besides, the Li couple didn't have many pursuits, so he usually didn't pay much attention to them.
As a result, when he was asked by Shen Qian, Li Dong was naturally dumbfounded. Other than saying not to go to places that were too high-end, there was nothing else.
…
Fortunately, when she came back at night, Li Chengyuan and his wife were talking and laughing with Shen Qian. It seemed that they got along well.
While Shen Qian was busy in the kitchen, Cao Fang leaned in front of Li Dong and whispered, "Miss Shen is very good. Let's see how her cooking is tonight. If it's passable, then she's really good at the kitchen."
Li Dong smiled and said, "Her cooking is just so-so, Mom. Don't be too demanding. She's usually busy, so she doesn't have so much time to cook. Besides, there won't be many opportunities to cook in the future. "
Cao Fang nodded slightly, but still said, "Even if she hired a nanny, she can't not know anything. But it's a good thing that she's willing to cook. I thought that with her family background, she wouldn't have to do housework. "
"That's not necessary. She doesn't have the temper of a rich young lady. If she really has such a temper, your son won't like her. Don't worry, your son has experienced so much and seen countless people. I also manage hundreds of thousands of people. I have some ability to judge people. Letting Qianqian be your daughter-in-law is the result of my careful consideration. Although he's a few years older than me, that's why he knows how to take care of people. His thinking is also more mature, so he won't be a burden to me, don't you think? "
Cao Fang nodded again. That was true.
Li Dong was young, but he was in charge of a company worth hundreds of billions and had hundreds of thousands of employees.
If he really married an insensible wife, that would be troublesome.
Even if he was older, so be it. Moreover, the other party's father was a high-ranking official. Perhaps he could even help his son.
A man cannot be happy for a thousand days, and a flower cannot be red for a hundred days.
Although Cao Fang didn't know much about Li Dong's business, she understood that her son wouldn't be able to support such a big company all by himself.
Finding an Yue Clan with a strong background would help him out in the future.
After thinking it through, the ill feelings in Cao Fang's heart slowly dissipated. She said softly, "If you like it, your father and I have no objections.
But since you're going to get married, you have to be careful.
I don't know what you think about that girl from the Qin Clan, but her father is still Far away.
I don't think it's a good idea to do this. They see each other all the time. Qianqian will feel uncomfortable, and Qin Hai won't feel comfortable either.
If you can't bring yourself to say it, find a reason to send him away. It's best if you don't stay in front of him.
I don't understand the company's matters, and I don't care about it.
But Dongzi, people can change. You and Qianqian got married and abandoned her daughter. How can her father not resent you?
If it were me, I would definitely resent you.
Think about it yourself. I won't say much, lest you think I'm nagging. "
Li Dong nodded lightly and said, "Mom, don't worry. I know what I'm doing. As for Uncle Qin … "
Li Dong paused, but he didn't continue speaking.
When Cao Fang saw this, she didn't ask further. She was just an ordinary housewife. She believed that her son could see through such matters.
As for what would happen to Qin Hai in the end, she couldn't be bothered. Anyway, he didn't cause trouble for her son.
The mother and son chatted for a while. Cao Fang was still worried about Shen Qian, so she went into the kitchen to help.
Li Chengyuan continued to look at the calendar. As he looked at it, he said to Li Dong, "Qingqing's wedding date has been set. They'll be getting married on March 14th next year. That day is an auspicious day. It's the 18th of February on the lunar calendar. It's a rare good day. I think it'll be a little later than Qingqing. Since it's going to be held next year, it's better for it to be a little earlier since she's older than you. I just looked at it. April isn't too good. Why don't we do it in May? There are more good days in May … "
Li Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Dad, there's no rush. You can take your time to look at it. When we go to the capital, we'll ask Uncle Du and the rest. We'll decide then. "
Li Chengyuan nodded and said, "That's true. Secretary Du is a capable person. We have to ask him for his opinion. Furthermore, whether it's going to be held in Jiangbei or in the capital, or both, we have to discuss it. Do what you need to do. I'll continue looking at it. "
With that said, Li Chengyuan no longer looked at Li Dong. Instead, he lowered his head and began to look at the calendar.
Li Dong was helpless. His father was usually very calm and unhurried, as if he wasn't anxious at all.
When it was really decided, he would be more proactive than anyone else.
His mother hadn't even gotten busy with this matter, but he couldn't hold it in anymore.
However, his father liked to make arrangements, so Li Dong didn't say anything. Nowadays, the younger generation said that marriage was their own matter and had nothing to do with their parents.
But in fact, marriage was definitely not a matter between two people. It was an important matter that concerned both parties' families.
Especially for an only child, if both parents didn't approve of such a marriage, there weren't many who could end up happily. It wasn't that there weren't any, but the probability was very low.
Today, Li Dong had become the actual pillar of the Li family.
But there were some things that couldn't be better if they could make their parents satisfied and support them. Otherwise, how could they deal with things outside if they couldn't even handle their family affairs?
…
The taste of the dinner at night was not bad.
It wasn't as exaggerated as what was shown on TV. As long as there was nothing wrong with their brains, even if they couldn't cook delicious food, it was still not a problem to make some home-cooked dishes.
Shen Qian was not the one who had been burnt to a crisp and he had been tormented by her.
Although the taste of the dishes was not that delicious, they still won the unanimous praise of the three people from the Li family.
Coming from a family like the Du family, being able to cook a delicious home-cooked meal had already exceeded the expectations of Li Chengyuan and his wife.
In just two days, Shen Qian successfully captured the hearts of the Li family.
…
At night.
After resting for a day, Li Dong wasn't as tired as he was yesterday.
Leaning against the headboard, Li Dong said casually, "The Hong Kong Stock Exchange approved it this afternoon. The online subscription will start tomorrow.
This will last for three working days, and the winners will be announced on the 2nd.
The offline allotment will also start tomorrow. According to Director Sun, almost no one wants to give up the 3.6 billion shares in the offline allotment.
At most, only 100 to 200 million shares will enter the market.
We still need to prepare 1.5 billion HKD for this allotment. Let's get 1.5 billion shares first.
On Old Huang's side, he would not give up either. After this placement, the cash flow that he had previously injected into Yi Wei would probably be used up.
Let's see how much support the Chao Shang Group and other people can give him. "
Shen Qian thought for a while and said. "1.5 billion HKD is close to 1.3 billion RMB. What about the online subscription?"
So far away, they only have about 1 billion RMB left.
They still need some money for the allotment.
Li Dong laughed. "It's fine. China Merchants Bank's Manager Ma called me this afternoon. He said he can't do it these few days as the bank's business is sealed. But on New Year's Day, which is 2009, we will be the first order. The 5 billion from China Merchants Bank should be available on New Year's Day. With 5 billion RMB and the 1 billion we have, our total is close to 7.1 billion HKD. We will spend 1.5 billion on the allotment and use the remaining 5.6 billion to buy shares online. "
Shen Qian immediately said. "I have slightly more than 1.2 billion RMB with me. That's about 1.5 billion HKD. I will also participate in the online subscription. With 7 billion HKD, we will have a higher chance of winning the lottery. "
Li Dong did not reject this offer.
Now, the more he invests, the better. If he has the money, he will spend a few hundred billion to buy shares now.
Anyway, the money will be returned to him if he does not win the lottery. The freeze period is short, and it will not affect him.
But if he wins the lottery in the primary market, Li Dong can save a lot of time and money.
Li Dong did not ask for much from 2.4 billion shares and invested 7 billion HKD into it. He only wants one-third of the shares, and that will be 800 million shares.
Of course, there is not much hope now.
This time, it is too sensational. He heard that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is blocked by all the major financial institutions and individual investors.
Every time a new share is listed, some companies with great potential will face this situation.
This time, Gome is different. The investors are not optimistic about Gome, but everyone is optimistic about Li Dong and Huang Guangyu's fight for power. This way, the shares will have a lot of potential.
Shen Qian thought for a while and said. "Don't just think about these 2.4 billion shares. Don't forget that there are still some outstanding shares in the market. We had calculated that there are about 1 billion shares in the hands of individual investors. This time, CRMC and the other minority shareholders might release a portion of their shares to maximize their profits. This way, excluding the shares we and the Huang Family will buy, there will be more than 3 billion shares in the secondary market. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "Isn't that what I want? If it is too little, we will not be able to reach our target. Don't forget, our target is 5.5 billion shares. Even if we sell 1.5 billion shares, we are still short of 4 billion. It is hard to say how many shares we will win, but I think it will not be a lot. If we really want to reach 4 billion shares, we still have to look at the market. As long as we can achieve our goal, we don't have to care about others anymore. Once we have the absolute controlling stake, the Huang Family will have no chance to turn around! "
Shen Qian nodded. This was a tough battle.
Li Dong's goal was not only to be a major shareholder, but also to have the absolute controlling stake. At present, excluding the allotment part, there were still 4 billion shares left. It was very difficult to achieve the goal in the secondary market.
Of course, even if he did not achieve the goal in the end, it was enough to become the largest shareholder.
At that time, except for the shares in the secondary market, even if the Huang Family and CRMC joined hands, they would not necessarily have more shares than Li Dong.
At this time, Li Dong had actually also completed the controlling stake.
However, this kind of controlling stake was not very stable and could be reversed at any time.
The two chatted for a while. Because they had to catch a plane to Hong Kong tomorrow, they did not talk for too long and went to bed early.
This night, Li Dong's parents in the next room sighed again. What was going on?
There had been no news for two days. Was it because of their son or Miss Shen?
…
December 31st.
On the last day of 2008, Li Dong took Shen Qian and dozens of staff assistants to charter a plane to Hong Kong.
The reason why they had to charter a plane was that they had no choice.
At this time, there were too many people on Li Dong's trip.
There were almost no less than 30 secretaries, assistants, staff, and security teams.
If they didn't charter a plane, it would be troublesome to just buy a plane ticket, and they had to transfer to the capital.
Sitting on the plane, Li Dong sighed with emotion, "Last time, I bragged to Old Ma that I also have a fleet of planes, but I still have to charter someone else's plane when I go out. It seems that the matter of a private plane will be put on the agenda. "
This time, Li Dong thought of buying a private plane, not to show off. At this time, in fact, Li Dong did not need a private plane to set off himself.
This was purely a work need. Every time a large number of people went out, they had to take a plane to a distant place, and it was not cost-effective to charter a plane every time.
It was better to buy one directly, which was more in line with practical interests.
Shen Qian heard this and said with a smile, "Yes, it's time to buy one. In fact, I have long wanted to persuade you to be more generous to yourself. You are still young and often take a car to the capital. If it were someone else, they would not have the energy to do anything else after traveling thousands of miles. Far away, the business is spread all over the country, and it is more convenient to have your own private plane. It will be much easier to apply for a flight route directly under the airline's name. "
"Well, call Boss Lan later and ask him to keep an eye on it for me."
This time, Li Dong was not stingy anymore. He even bought a private fleet of planes, so one private plane was not a problem.
Hearing Li Dong's words, Tan Yong and the others behind him also laughed foolishly.
They had long persuaded the boss to buy a private plane, but Boss Li was too stingy. Last time, he even showed off his cargo plane fleet.
Who had nothing better to do than to take a cargo plane?
This time, with a private plane, it would not only be convenient to travel in the future, but also much more dignified.
At this time, there were not many private planes in the country.
While chatting, Li Dong and the others took a short break.
On the way, the plane stopped in Shanghai for a short time. At 1: 30 pm, the plane landed at the Hong Kong International Airport!
The moment the plane landed, all the people in Hong Kong received the news.
Li Dong had arrived!
It had only been a year and a half since the last time Li Dong came to Hong Kong.
In April 2007, Li Dong accompanied his classmates from the Changjiang Business School to Hong Kong for an inspection.
At that time, although Li Dong was slightly famous in the country, he was still a nobody in Hong Kong.
Now, in just over a year, when he came to Hong Kong again, he was no longer the old Li Dong.
Hua Xia was the richest man in the mainland, the head of the first private enterprise in Hua Xia, and a world-famous young talent …
A series of titles, plus this time he came to buy Gome, no one in Hong Kong dared to underestimate the youngest business overlord.
