January 2nd, Friday.
As expected, because of Li Dong's success on New Year's Day, the competition for Gome's shares became more favorable to Li Dong.
By the end of the morning, the subscription had reached 85 billion Hong Kong dollars.
There were still two hours left in the afternoon, and it was almost a foregone conclusion that the subscription would exceed 100 billion.
It was just a new issue of 2.4 billion shares, and the subscription of 100 billion was locked in.
If all of them were listed, wouldn't it exceed 1 trillion?
Once again, there was a heated discussion about Li Dong, especially in Hong Kong. Li Dong, the richest man in the mainland who was not very famous in Hong Kong before, became famous.
The last time, the mainland tycoon who became famous in Hong Kong was Ma Yun from Ngari.
At the end of 2007, Ali's B2B business went public and created a miracle.
The frozen subscription reached 450 billion Hong Kong dollars, raising 11.6 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Ali's market value exceeded 20 billion US dollars, and it became an Internet company in Asia, second only to Yahoo!
However, such a miracle didn't last long.
After a financial crisis, Ali's stock price plummeted. At its peak, it was more than 40 Hong Kong dollars per share. Now, it fell below the issue price and was close to the 10 Hong Kong dollars mark.
Ma Yun, who was famous in 2007, was now almost stinking in Hong Kong.
This was not a lie. Most of the people who bought the shares of the companies listed in Hong Kong were from Hong Kong.
The stock price plummeted below the issue price, and many people lost all their money.
If Ma Yun dared to come to Hong Kong at this time, it was very likely that he would be smashed with rotten eggs.
At the beginning of 2009, Li Dong, the mainland tycoon, replaced Ma Yun and became the most popular mainland entrepreneur.
Compared with Ma Yun, Li Dong seemed to be more reliable.
At least, Li Dong had a lot of industries, and all of them were in their peak state.
Li Dong was very famous both at home and abroad. If Li Dong's miracle was also broken, Hong Kong would become the grave of the mainland tycoons.
…
At 3 pm, the subscription for new shares ended.
At 3.30pm, HKEx and Gome jointly announced that the total amount of new share subscriptions had reached HKD108 billion.
On the other hand, Gome continued to release announcements to adjust the price.
The IPO price is tentatively set at HKD 1.1, which is 0.1 HKD higher than the previous price.
The increase might not seem to be a lot, but overall, Gome could raise an additional 600 million HKD by issuing 6 billion shares.
The reason why it was calculated as 6 billion shares was that, according to the regulations, the allotment shares and the public shares had the same price.
As the public shares rose, the price of the allotment naturally rose as well.
Because the IPO price has increased, Li Dong and JP Morgan will have to pay an additional 150 million HKD for the 1.5 billion shares.
This was not a good thing for Li Dong.
Fortunately, it was the same for the Huang family. To the Huang family, who had less funds, the higher the price, the less funds they could use.
The three-day application period was over, and the next step was to draw lots.
As for how many lots he would win, it would depend on his luck. This time, there were a total of 2.4 billion shares in the market. According to the issue price, the total financing was HK $26.4.
The subscription amount was 108 billion, and the probability was at least 40 to 1.
According to this concept, Li Dong, the Jiangbei Chamber of Commerce, and Fang Keng and other Hong Kong businessmen would win 250 million shares.
Of course, the probability was only a probability, and it might be more or less.
300 million shares and 200 million shares were all within the normal range.
At the same time that the subscription ended, the lottery began. Ordinary investors had to wait until tomorrow to see the announced number of the winning lot.
However, Li Dong and the others did not need to wait. They would know the result as soon as the lottery ended.
Privilege always exists at all times.
As the one who seized power from Gome and the richest man in the mainland, he had to show his respect even in Hong Kong.
…
At 5 pm, the lottery ended.
Li Dong and his men went to HKEx. Before they entered the door, they saw the Huang family.
Before they had time to talk, Hsu Shengzhe got out of the car.
Seeing Li Dong, Hsu Shengzhe laughed and said, "Boss Li, you should thank me this time. I've been running around for you."
Then, Hsu Shengzhe ignored Li Dong and looked at the Huang family.
Huang Yanhong was the leader of the Huang family this time. Old Huang and Du Juan could not come in person because of various reasons.
Hsu Shengzhe did not pay attention to Huang Yanhong. He looked at the businessmen beside her and laughed. "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, what a coincidence! I heard that you have invested 700 or 800 million this time. I'm afraid you can win a lot of money. If you want to sell, you can talk to me. I don't know how much money I can win with the 3 billion. You can return the rest of the money to me. Isn't it a slap in my face? I'm ready to spend all the 3 billion in Hong Kong! "
Hearing that, the businessmen's faces darkened.
Li Dong glanced at Hsu Shengzhe and thought, "Is this guy going crazy because of me? Is he trying to show his existence?"
"I didn't say anything, but he provoked me first."
Hsu Shengzhe didn't care what Li Dong thought. He didn't want to show his existence. He didn't provoke the Huang family. He only provoked the businessmen for the sake of the Jiangbei Merchants.
The two gangs had almost fought in the mainland.
In the end, they both took a step back and stopped the dispute.
But Hsu Shengzhe's morale was at its peak, and he felt uncomfortable after taking a step back.
Recently, the Jiangbei Merchants were contacting several old gangs, such as the Suzhou and Zheshang Merchants, to do something big together.
As the biggest business group since the reform and opening up, the Chaozhou Merchants had shared a lot of profits with them.
Not only the Chaozhou Merchants, but also the Cantonese Merchants.
The Cantonese Merchants were located in the coastal area, close to Hong Kong and Macao. In recent years, the Cantonese Merchants had produced too many big entrepreneurs, and the Cantonese Merchants had become more powerful.
As for the other gangs, there hadn't been any powerful figures in recent years.
People like Liu Chuanzhi had become so powerful and focused on the world, so they didn't want to get involved in these things.
But now, there was a Li Dong in Jiangbei.
Li Dong's goal was obvious. He wanted to take over the mainland first, then enter Hong Kong and Macao, and finally hit the international market.
In this way, there would be a leader.
With Li Dong as the leader, they would unite the major gangs and grab some of the Cantonese Merchants' territories. This was also the consensus of the major gangs.
Taking advantage of the war between Li Dong and Gome, Li Dong couldn't run away even if he wanted to.
This time, Jiangbei had contributed a lot. If the war really broke out, how could Li Dong not take action?
In the end, the relationship between businessmen still came from benefits.
If there were no benefits in helping Li Dong, no one would do it.
They had chosen Li Dong as the leader because it was cool under a big tree. Jiangbei's businessmen were not stupid.
If they don't use Li Dong's reputation now, when he leaves the country, he will be a Hua Xia businessman, and will no longer be bothered with the local gangs.
If they want to use Li Dong's reputation to increase the profits of Jiangbei Merchants, this is the best time.
It's too early. Li Dong's reputation is not enough.
But it's too late. Li Dong had already left the country.
Only at this time, Li Dong, who was at the peak of China, can bring in the biggest returns.
Li Dong didn't see these things for the time being. But when Hsu Shengzhe provoked the Tide Gang, Li Dong vaguely sensed his intention.
Hsu Shengzhe is not an idiot. This time, he is only here to help. It is not worthwhile to show up in person and offend people.
Since he offended them, he must have his own purpose.
Li Dong glanced at him and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Huang Yanhong and said with a faint smile, "Director Huang, shouldn't you be in Gome at this time?"
Huang Yanhong glanced at Li Dong angrily and said after a while, "Gome issued new shares. I was appointed by the group to come to Hong Kong to take charge of the specific business operation."
"Really? I'm not sure. "
Li Dong chuckled. After a while, he said, "Forget it, I won't bully the weak, lest I become a laughing stock."
No one on Huang Yanhong's side made a sound when he said this.
Because it was the truth, although it was a little awkward.
After all, Huang Yanhong is about 10 years older than Li Dong. How could it not be awkward for a young man in his twenties to tell her not to bully the young?
But in terms of social status and achievements, Li Dong is indeed much older than her.
Li Dong didn't care about their expressions and said with a smile, "By the way, President Zhiming didn't come?"
In Gome, people only know Old Huang, Cheng Xiao, and Du Juan …
But few people still remember that before Cheng Xiao, Gome also had a general manager, Zhang Zhiming.
As the second most important person after Old Huang, Zhang Zhiming withdrew from Gome since Cheng Xiao came.
But Zhang Zhiming's withdrawal from Gome didn't mean that he had nothing to do with the Huang family. He was Huang Yanhong's husband. The rise of Gome was inseparable from Old Huang, but it was also inseparable from his brother-in-law, Zhang Zhiming.
When Old Huang got into trouble, many people in Gome called for Zhang Zhiming to return to the front stage and take over Gome.
Such a person was even more prestigious than Du Juan.
Ten years ago, Hua Xia was known as the "Three Zhang" in the home appliance industry.
Zhang Jindong of Suning, Zhang Jisheng of Tri-Link, and Zhang Zhiming of Gome. It could be seen that this brother-in-law of the Huang family still had prestige and ability.
This time, the Huang family didn't let Zhang Zhiming come. Instead, they let Huang Yanhong come, which made Li Dong feel a little strange.
Li Dong insisted on chatting with her. Although Huang Yanhong didn't want to talk to him, she couldn't let others think that she was arrogant.
Suppressing her displeasure, Huang Yanhong said lightly, "He has other things to do. Besides, this is Gome's business. It has nothing to do with him."
"That's a pity …"
With a smile on his face, Li Dong shook his head and said, "Of the Three Zhang back then, except for Zhang Jindong, who was still active, I had no chance to meet the other two. It's fine with Tri-Link since Gome took over them. Sooner or later, I'll have a chance to meet them. As for President Zhiming, I have to find a chance to make friends with him. Gome is currently lacking in talents. I still hope that President Zhiming can go back. "
Huang Yanhong frowned and didn't reply. What did he mean by Gome lacking in talents?
Now that the three Huang siblings were here, Du Juan was also here, and a large number of directors and executives were here, he was deliberately mocking them.
However, she couldn't say anything. After all, the person Li Dong was talking about was her husband.
She didn't reply, so Li Dong didn't continue. As they walked, he said, "Let's go in and take a look. I don't know how many lots we'll get this time. I hope it'll be a little more."
Huang Yanhong couldn't respond to this.
As they walked in front, Hsu Shengzhe looked gloomy. What was going on?
Was he being completely ignored?
The provocative Tide Gang ignored him, Li Dong ignored him, and the Huang family ignored him. This was too f * cking embarrassing!
In any case, he was a billionaire. How could he be ignored just like that?
Feeling helpless, Hsu Shengzhe moved in front of Shen Qian and said, "Old Shen, isn't your family's Li Dong being too disrespectful? I'm here to help. I've given him nearly six billion yuan. How can he not remember my kindness? How black-hearted! "
Shen Qian glanced at him and said with a smile, "Six billion. How much did you take out?"
Hsu Shengzhe said angrily, "800 million! Do you think it's too little? I'm willing to do anything for my friends, but some bastards are cold-blooded. They didn't even bother to greet me. Next time, don't look for me. I won't help you even if you do! "
Shen Qian laughed and said, "Alright, stop cursing. He remembers the favor. More importantly, your motives aren't pure. Next time, don't be too selfish when you do favors. Otherwise, the favor will be gone. The Cantonese businessmen are now developing in the coastal areas. There aren't many Cantonese businessmen in the mainland. Who knows who will benefit from your schemes? Jiangbei's business world isn't monolithic. The Cantonese businessmen are not the enemy of Jiangbei's business world. Instead, it's the Zhejiang and Suzhou businessmen who are our biggest competitors. "
Hsu Shengzhe couldn't help but say, "I'm really envious of that kid, Li Dong. Old Shen, if you had married me back then, Li Dong wouldn't even exist …"
"Cough, cough!"
Li Dong, who was walking in front, coughed softly and turned his head to look at him. He put on a fake smile and said, "Old Xu, take a look at yourself in the mirror. Do you think my wife would fall for someone like you?"
"Get lost! Say that to yourself!"
Hsu Shengzhe retorted. Is he so thick-skinned that he doesn't know his place?
Look at yourself in the mirror. Do you need me to remind you who's handsome and who's ugly?
The Huang Family and the Chao Merchants were dumbfounded. What's going on?
However, after seeing the two of them scolding each other for a while, Huang Yanhong couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. Were all the people in the Jiangbei business circle like this?
No wonder Second Brother can't win against them. They're vulgar, perverted, shameless, and shameless. Second Brother is obviously at a disadvantage.
After a few words, Huang Yanhong didn't wait for them and quickly led her men into the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
After they left, Shen Qian couldn't help but sigh. "Pay attention to your image. It's embarrassing if others see you like this."
Li Dong smiled. "You don't have to care about my image. Every move I make now is a model. As for Hsu Shengzhe, he's just a nobody. It doesn't matter. "
Hsu Shengzhe couldn't help but roll his eyes. After a while, he scolded. "Li Dong, people like you will be beaten to death sooner or later! This is the last time. If I help you again in the future, I'll be an idiot! "
"Looks like you're set on being an idiot. When have you not made money by following me? If you don't follow me, you'll go bankrupt sooner or later. Leave some money for our goddaughter. It's okay to be an idiot this time. I won't laugh at you. This time, no matter how many lots you win, I'll raise 20%. Don't say that I don't remember favors. I'll just get a few billion and increase by 20% in three days. That's a big deal. "
Hsu Shengzhe can't be bothered to say anything. This guy is good at changing the topic.
This time, they had invested 3 billion HKD, and if they can win 100 million shares, they will be considered lucky.
Increasing 20% is about 20 million HKD.
If they were to split the shares, each of them will only get a few hundred thousand to a million.
At their level, why would they care about this small amount of money?
Li Dong's shamelessness had reached the peak. It was impossible to not admire him. He had made it sound as if Xu Shengzhe and the others had really gained a lot.
Hsu Shengzhe ignored him and walked into the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
… …
Half an hour later.
The results are out.
Li Dong's 5 billion HKD won 13,000 lots.
This time, Gome will issue new shares with 10,000 shares as a lot, and 13,000 lots won. This means Li Dong will get 130 million shares.
It's not a lot, but not a small amount. It's within Li Dong's expectations.
Hsu Shengzhe's luck is better than Feng Yu. 3 billion HKD, and he won 80 million shares.
Fang Keng's 2 billion HKD, and he won about 50 million shares.
The three parties will get a total of 260 million shares.
At this time, the shares will be at the issue price. Next, when the shares open for trading, it will not be at the issue price.
Under normal circumstances, the shares will rise by a lot, and that's the opening price.
Because 99% of new shares will rise after the opening price, many people will enter the market every time a company is listed. This is a profitable transaction.
Fang Keng and Hsu Shengzhe are here to support Li Dong. Even though Li Dong had said that he will buy their shares at a 20% increment, Fang Keng and Hsu Shengzhe agreed.
In the end, both parties did not agree and bought 130 million shares. The 20% increment is less than 30 million HKD.
But this time, there are too many people participating, and each person will only get a few hundred thousand HKD.
They might as well do Li Dong a favor, and this is much better than a few hundred thousand HKD.
Seeing that they insisted, Li Dong had no choice but to accept their shares at the issue price.
With the placement, Li Dong had bought about 1.76 billion HKD.
He had spent almost 2 billion HKD.
Far away had raised a lot of funds this time. China Merchants Bank had approved the 5 billion loan, and Shen Qian had taken out 1 billion HKD.
7 billion RMB, more than 8 billion HKD.
After this purchase, Li Dong still had more than 6 billion HKD available to him.
Li Dong's shares, including JP Morgan, is about 13.8 billion HKD.
He is less than 4 billion shares away from 17.5 billion HKD. Even if the shares are traded at 1.5 HKD per share, it will be enough.
Li Dong is worried that there will not be enough shares in the market to sell.
If this is the case, it will be troublesome.
But when the time comes, Li Dong had also made a record. According to Hong Kong's rules, if the number of outstanding shares is less than 25% of the total shares, it will trigger a forced delisting.
This is for small companies. If the market value is more than 10 billion HKD, and the minimum number of outstanding shares is less than 15%, it will trigger a forced delisting.
He would wait until the floating share capital in the market was less than 15%. If he was forced to delist, he would fight for a bigger lead in the floating market when the market opened. Old Huang was no match for him.
Li Dong does not care how much shares the Huang Family got, and they will not tell him. He can only wait for the announcement tomorrow.
The Huang Family had only invested 2 billion HKD, and Chao Shang Group had invested 1 billion HKD. They will not get more than 100 million shares, and Li Dong does not care about these.
