"Li Dong is back!"
He was like a general who had just returned from a great victory.
As soon as Li Dong returned to Pingchuan, all the circles in Jiangbei were stirred.
…
Jiangbei's political circle.
Qin Hanyuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news of Li Dong's return. They didn't even know why they were relieved.
Perhaps they were worried that the guy was not satisfied and was still stirring up trouble in the capital.
Perhaps they were afraid that Li Dong would be poached after being in contact with the other side for too long.
In any case, Li Dong's return made many people feel relieved.
Li Dong was no longer just a businessman. His every move could sometimes affect the fate and future of everyone present.
…
While the political circle breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiangbei's business circle was also rejoicing.
In the past few years, as Li Dong became more and more famous, Jiangbei businessmen were once again active in the business circle of Hua Xia.
At this time, Li Dong's return did have the effect of calming people's hearts. At least they felt that they had a backbone.
Hsu Shengzhe, who was in a meeting, saw this scene and was a little depressed.
I came back the day before yesterday, but I didn't see you guys like this.
My sense of existence seems to be getting lower and lower.
Hsu Shengzhe shook his head and sighed. When will these days come to an end? That kid is younger than me. How long will he live?
…
Different from these people's concerns, others were more concerned about Li Dong's marriage.
Unfortunately, the media that had been able to block Li Dong at the airport in the past could not find him this time.
When they arrived, Li Dong had already left through a special passage.
This made many media extremely regretful. It was such a big gossip, but they couldn't interview the person involved. It was such a pity.
Not to mention the regret of the media. On the side of East Star Entertainment.
Hu Xiaorui had been angry for the whole morning, which scared the others so much that their breathing became a lot quieter.
It was not until they saw the boss holding his bag angrily and leaving with a look as if he was going to settle the score with someone that everyone was relieved.
As for whom Hu Xiaorui was going to settle the score, anyone with a discerning eye would know.
The Richest Man Li was actually getting married. This gossip had spread all over the entertainment circle today.
Some people also guessed that it might be Hu Xiaorui, but everyone in East Star knew that their boss had hardly left for the past month. If Li Dong really proposed, everyone would definitely know.
Since there was no news, it was probably not the boss.
No wonder Mr. Hu seemed to want to take a bite out of everyone he saw early in the morning.
…
Far away from the building.
Far away employees were more excited about Li Dong's return than outsiders.
As soon as the motorcade welcoming Li Dong arrived at the entrance of the park, the entire park suddenly burst into cheers.
"Brother Dong is mighty!"
No one knew who started it, but soon after, deafening shouts came from every floor.
When Li Dong got out of the car and saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile. "Young people are really energetic. It's rare to see such a scene in a company that has been established for more than ten years."
Everyone was already used to his words, which sounded like he was an old man.
Yuan Chengdao, who personally came downstairs to pick them up, smiled and said, "The leader just now was General Manager Li's classmate, right? He's quite charismatic. It seems that he can take on more responsibilities in the future."
Li Dong smiled as he walked and said, "It's a good thing that he didn't deduct his salary for fooling around during working hours.
Besides, the company has its own set of promotion standards. It's not just anyone who can do it.
Far away has been established for five years. In the early stage, there was no one available, so they had to use him.
Now, everything is on the right track. Even if we are short of people, it's better to have no one than to have a shoddy job. We'd rather leave a position empty than let someone take it in a hurry.
If it's empty, everyone still has thoughts, ideas, and motivation.
We found an unreliable person, and the whole department collapsed. "
Li Dong said a few simple words. Yuan Chengdao and others nodded quickly. Now they finally understood what Li Dong meant.
They didn't want to be a family business!
In the early stage, they had no choice. They couldn't find suitable people. Regardless of whether they could do it or not, they had to take up the position first.
Sun Tao, Qi Yunna, Wang Yue …
Which of these people, who were now all-powerful in the distant lands, hadn't been forced to do so in the past and forced themselves to do so?
Of course, this kind of situation could also train talents.
Many high-end elites of enterprises were veterans who followed the founders to conquer the world. It had nothing to do with education level.
Because when starting a business, these people had to bear too many burdens. They had to come into contact with all aspects, manage them, and maintain them.
It could be said that for any enterprise that could become big and whose founding team was still retained, these veterans were basically all-rounders.
But in the later stage, it was not appropriate to do what they did in the early stage.
At this time, there were many people, and the team was big. If you suddenly promoted someone, it would easily cause the whole team to be dissatisfied.
Far away was the same. No one was willing to let a newcomer suddenly ride on top of their heads. Of course, the veterans in the industry were an exception. Those who jumped ship had rich experience before, so they were not afraid of this.
Yuan Chengdao brushed over Meng Qiping's matter briefly.
Yuan Chengdao did not continue on this topic. He continued, "General Manager Li, the 2008 financial report is out two days ago. I have also sent you the report. Have you taken a look?"
"Yes, I took a quick look."
Li Dong nodded and said, "Gome's acquisition was not included."
Yuan Chengdao explained, "Gome's acquisition spanned across 2008 and 2009 …"
"Let the finance department do a simple calculation. We will have a meeting with the executives tomorrow. Everyone, listen to it briefly. There will be no meeting today. Send me an invitation later. The day after tomorrow, our company will have a cocktail party, and we will invite celebrities from all over Jiangbei. Far away is strongly supporting the acquisition of Gome from all over Jiangbei. I will take this opportunity to thank them. I will not visit them one by one! "
Everyone nodded again. Since Li Dong was back, it was only right for them to express their gratitude.
Jiangbei's business community had raised 6 billion to personally support Li Dong. The impact was not small.
If Li Dong did not express his gratitude, it would be too heartless.
While they were talking, everyone had already arrived upstairs.
The cheers in the building gradually died down. Li Dong smiled and said, "Far away's performance this year is not bad. Have you distributed the year-end bonuses?"
"Not yet. I have been doing accounting tasks these few days. I am a little busy …"
"Distribute it as soon as possible. It is almost Chinese New Year. Let everyone celebrate."
Li Dong gave a few simple instructions. When he reached the door of the office, he looked at everyone and said, "All of you can go and do your own things. Director Yuan and the two Director Liu, please stay."
The others heard this and left. As for the two Director Liu, one was referring to Liu Hong, and the other was referring to the finance director, Liu Hong Mei.
…
In the office.
Li Dong sat on the chair and let out a long sigh. "It is more comfortable here. You must be tired out these few days. I am afraid you are all cursing now, right? "
Yuan Chengdao smiled and said, "Don't say that. It is my job."
Li Dong chuckled and said, "So you're saying that you can continue to hold on? Alright, I have something to do. Let's talk later. "
Yuan Chengdao and the others were helpless. What else could they say when they met a director who did not follow the rules?
Although they were helpless, Yuan Chengdao could only take the initiative and say, "The key is still the problem of funds. General Manager Li, I heard that the loan from CCB has been approved. Are you going to use it to pay for Director Huang's purchase? But if we do that, we will not be able to fill the gap in our initial funds. Why don't we talk to Director Huang … "
Li Dong shook his head and said, "It is best to settle the Gome matter as soon as possible. The Huang Family will pay 18 billion in three installments. I agreed to pay 8 billion in one installment. The loan this time will first meet the Huang Family's needs. The remaining 2 billion will be used to meet the company's development needs. I will think of a way to pay for the Jiangbei business and some other debts. "
So far away, other than the 15 billion loan, the company had collected 5 billion. There were still more than 5 billion in debt outside. Not to mention the 3 billion in Jiangbei, Shen Qian's IOU amounted to 1.6 billion. There were also some securities companies that had not paid in full.
So far away, the total cost of acquiring Gome was more than 40 billion.
Seeing that Li Dong insisted, Yuan Chengdao did not say anything else. He continued, "The other thing is …"
Yuan Chengdao gave a simple report of the situation. Yuan Chengdao had already dealt with the general matters.
Most of the difficult matters were related to money.
Even the cleverest housewife cannot cook without rice. Without money, some things were helpless.
What Liu Hongmei wanted to talk about was naturally the issue of funds.
When it was Liu Hong's turn, Liu Hong talked about the situation of Far away Technology. Finally, he said, "General Manager Li, if there is no other way, Far away Technology can be financed. Far away Technology is not making a lot of profits now, but the annual investment is not small. It is all relying on the company's blood transfusion. But it cannot go on like this. Now that Wan Toon is a huge success, it has overtaken Alipay offline and is about to overtake it online. In fact, according to our statistics, it should have overtaken Alipay's market share. Financing at this time is still beneficial for us. "
Li Dong nodded slightly and said, "In the end, the internet industry will burn money endlessly if we don't get financing.
But the market has not been good for the past two years, and the value of our industry has been underestimated.
So, after the previous few times, I am not prepared to get financing now.
We have just entered 2009, and the era of the mobile internet has just begun. Let's wait a little longer.
When the outsiders see our value, it will not be too late to get financing.
As for the problem of funds … "
Li Dong paused and said, "If it doesn't work, when Gome is privatized, I will mortgage the entire Gome and see if I can get a loan from the bank. If it doesn't work, I will talk to the capital institutions. If the interest is high, then so be it. We can't be worrying about money at this time. "
Hearing Li Dong say this, everyone was speechless.
If they really wanted to mortgage the entire Gome, it would not be difficult to borrow one or two billion.
Next, everyone reported on other businesses.
Li Dong looked at the time and said, "That's all for today. We will have a meeting tomorrow to discuss the strategy for 2009."
Everyone nodded and left.
And Li Dong did not stay in the office for long. Soon, he left Far away Building.
