Far away from the building.
As soon as Li Dong went out, he was blocked by someone.
The person who blocked him was none other than Hu Xiaorui, who was full of murderous intent.
The girl didn't say anything. She just stared at Li Dong with an expression that said she was about to cry, which gave Li Dong a headache.
Looking around, Li Dong said helplessly, "Let's go for a cup of coffee?"
"No!"
"Find a place to sit?"
"No!"
"Then what do you want? You can't just block me and not let me go, right?"
Hu Xiaorui snorted, "Let's go to your house!"
Li Dong said dryly, "That's not very good. You know that I'm already a married man …"
Hu Xiaorui glared at him and pouted, "You're not married yet. If you're not married, then it doesn't count. Anyway, I'm not convinced."
"This has nothing to do with whether you're convinced or not …"
Li Dong obviously overestimated himself. It would be unreasonable if he tried to reason with Hu Xiaorui.
Without waiting for him to continue, Hu Xiaorui dragged him into the car and said to Old Tan, "Go to the provincial party committee's compound!"
Tan Yong didn't dare to provoke this girl. He glanced at Li Dong. Seeing Li Dong nod, he quickly started the car and drove to the provincial party committee's compound.
…
In the small courtyard.
As soon as Li Dong returned, the two girls stuck to him.
Li Dong hugged Little Shitou and said with a smile, "He's getting heavier and heavier. In a year or two, I won't be able to carry him anymore."
Hu Xiaorui subconsciously wanted to reach out and pinch Little Shitou's face, but the little girl cleverly dodged, leaving her to touch empty air.
This time, Hu Xiaorui was unhappy and said angrily, "Li Dong bullied me, and you bullied me too. I won't buy you delicious food in the future!"
When Little Shitou heard this, he hesitated for a moment before he reluctantly walked in front of her and muttered, "Then just touch me. You're not allowed to pinch me. You're the one who made me fat."
Hu Xiaorui said gloomily, "You got fat by eating, what does that have to do with me?"
Hu Xiaorui pinched Little Shitou's face and sent him off to play. Only then did she stare at Li Dong and ask, "Are you really going to get married?"
Li Dong leaned back on the sofa and nodded without saying anything.
"Shen Qian?"
"Yes."
"When?"
"I haven't decided yet."
"What about me?" Hu Xiaorui said angrily.
Li Dong glanced at her and said helplessly, "This question makes me feel like I'm guilty of a heinous crime. But I didn't do anything to you, did I? "
Hu Xiaorui said angrily, "Are you going to go back on your word?"
Li Dong had a headache. Why would I go back on my word?
The point was that I really didn't do anything to this girl.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Dong felt that he was still very innocent. He could only smile bitterly and say, "I won't go back on my word. The point is that I want to get married. You can't not let me get married, right?"
Hu Xiaorui was still a bit angry and complained, "Then can't you wait a few years before getting married? We agreed that if I received the third bouquet, you would marry me. Are you going back on your word now? "
Li Dong was dumbfounded. When did I ever agree to this?
Just as he wanted to explain, Hu Xiaorui said again, "Is it because Shen Qian has a child?"
"Ah?"
"Married because of a child?"
"This …"
"It must be. Shen Bingshan is too shameless. If I had known earlier, I would have taken the initiative!" Hu Xiaorui had an indignant expression.
She stared at Li Dong again and again as if she couldn't wait to take action now.
Being stared at by her, Li Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with this. Where did you hear this gossip? Marriage is a big deal. I have thought about it for a long time. Xiaorui, as for you, you are still too young. Brother Dong really sees you as a little sister … "
It would have been better if he didn't say it. As soon as he said it, Hu Xiaorui said angrily, "You are a little sister. How am I little!"
Li Dong looked embarrassed. I am not talking about the size. Why are you sticking out your chest?
Being disturbed by this girl's unreasonable pestering, Li Dong had no choice but to say helplessly, "Xiaorui, it's like this. Don't make trouble."
"I am not making trouble!"
Hu Xiaorui pouted and walked to sit next to Li Dong. She stared at him and said, "All these years, you have never liked me at all?"
"Or do you think I am too childish to be your wife?"
"But I only show my childishness to the people closest to me."
"Li Dong, do you really not regret it?"
"…"
Hu Xiaorui asked a series of questions, and Li Dong didn't know how to answer.
Hu Xiaorui didn't ask anymore. After a while, she said, "Do you still remember that time when you went to the Yao family and smashed their door?"
Li Dong was stunned for a moment and nodded. "Yes."
Hu Xiaorui narrowed her eyes and said, "Then will you accompany me to smash it again?"
"Again?" Li Dong was dumbfounded. Was it really appropriate at this time?
Li Dong coughed and said embarrassedly, "The Yao family has moved away, right?"
"I won't smash the Yao family's door this time!"
"Then whose door are you going to smash?"
As soon as Li Dong asked, he felt something was wrong.
As expected, Hu Xiaorui seemed to see through the wall and stared at the yard next door. "I'll smash her house!"
Li Dong was dumbfounded and said awkwardly, "That's not good …"
Hu Xiaorui pouted and stared at him. "Are you going to smash it or not? If you smash it, I won't pester you anymore. If you don't smash it, I'll go to your house every day Far away. If you get married, I'll go to your house every day. It'll be good to piss Chen Bingshan off! I'm so upset now. I have a stomach full of anger and want to find someone to vent it on. If Chen Bingshan isn't here, I'll smash her house to vent my anger. If you don't want to, I'll go myself! "
Li Dong smiled bitterly and said after a while, "Why don't we wait until tonight …"
"Now!"
…
Half an hour later, Li Dong sat by the door with a hole in it, smoking without caring about his image.
Holding the phone in his hand, Li Dong said helplessly, "If I don't smash it, she said she won't leave today. Wife, I really have no choice. Besides, it's just a door. I'll get someone to replace it later. This girl also said that it's just this once. There won't be a second time. Are you relieved now? "
On the other end of the phone, Shen Qian said angrily, "You believe what she said? She said there won't be a second time, and you actually believe her. Are you a fool? Also, do you know that this girl just posted on Weibo? She even included a picture of you smashing my door with her to provoke me. Don't you feel ashamed? "
Li Dong scratched his head and said, "It can't be?"
"Can't you see it yourself? Forget it, I can't be bothered to talk to you. "
Shen Qian also did not have the energy to retort. She had no choice when it came to this brat, Hu Xiaorui.
After a few words, Shen Qian said again, "Next time she goes crazy, just ignore her. She's the kind of person who goes crazy when people come. If no one cares about her, she'll stop."
"Got it!"
Li Dong hurriedly promised and hung up the phone. He turned around and looked at the broken door with a sigh.
That girl, she's ruining my great image again.
…
January 10th.
Far away, in the conference room.
Far away was divided into ten levels. Only those who were level seven and above could be considered as the senior management.
Although level seven was already very high treatment, as Far away continued to expand, the number of people in the management continued to increase.
Two years ago, the conference room could only be full with the addition of the store manager. Now, when the level seven management arrived, it was almost full.
While Li Dong and the others had not arrived, many people were discussing in low voices.
Some talked about the year-end bonus, some talked about the merger of Gome, and some talked about the performance of their own stores.
After chatting for a while, a large group of people came in.
The leader was Li Dong.
When they saw that Li Dong had arrived, everyone became serious and stopped talking. The conference room instantly became quiet.
Li Dong, Yuan Chengdao, and the others took their seats.
As soon as they sat down, Li Dong said, "I've been too busy for the past few days and didn't have time to hold the year-end meeting. Fortunately, I'm almost done with my work now, so I'll have a simple chat with everyone. Last year's results, performance, and whatnot, I've already seen them, but I'll have to trouble you to repeat them again. So far away had outstanding results in 2008, so I have to share the joy with everyone. "
After Li Dong finished speaking, Yuan Chengdao coughed lightly and said, "So far away had too many results in 2008, so I'll just briefly mention the key points. So far away, in 2008, we acquired Carrefour, which was the first miracle in the industry. After that, we established Far away Industries and controlled some of our own production channels. In addition, we reached an online and offline cooperation model with China Resources, defeated Yonghui, and entered Shancheng, Sichuan, Hebei, Minnan, Xiangnan, and many other provinces … "
Although Yuan Chengdao said it was simple, So far away's retail development was indeed extraordinarily fast in 2008.
Finally, Yuan Chengdao said, "Now, there are more than 1,400 stores in all kinds of hypermarkets and all levels of physical stores.
In 2008, including Carrefour, the physical store revenue reached 110 billion.
As for online, since Wanjia Online went online, our self-operated business has increased.
This year, the entire So Far Away Mall's revenue is about 130 billion, and our self-operated business is as high as 90 billion.
Overall, So far away Retail Group's revenue this year is more than 200 billion.
In terms of profit, it's also gratifying, as high as 15 billion net profit … "
Yuan Chengdao said this net profit with a guilty conscience.
It couldn't be helped. In fact, according to the statistical rules, some expansion costs also had to be included.
So far away had made too many moves this year. Just the acquisition of Carrefour alone would probably reduce the profit to zero.
There was also the establishment of logistics channels, the establishment of IDC's data center, the establishment of the after-sales system …
Logically speaking, these were all included in the cost.
If they really calculated it this way, So far away had made a huge loss this year.
However, it was not appropriate to calculate it this way, and it would instead hurt everyone's confidence. Yuan Chengdao simply mentioned it without going into detail. Anyway, everyone could understand.
Then, Yuan Chengdao talked about the operations of the other subsidiaries.
Overall, the operations were okay.
Only the real estate group had hoarded the land but had no money to develop it. Now, the outside world had begun to clamor that the Far away City project was dead in the water.
Li Dong's 100 billion plan finally came to an end.
Of course, whether it came to an end or not, even if it was just hoarding the land, So far away did not lose money. The key was that the Far away City project was initially boasted so loudly that all the governments were excited.
So far away said that they did not have the money to develop it now. In the future, Han Yu and the rest would bite off all the meat on Li Dong's body.
Moreover, the failure of the Far away City project was a big blow to So Far.
