"Ladies and gentlemen, Far away's retail value is not the full value of this cooperation!
This cooperation is not something that can be achieved in a day.
Those who are interested in working with us, we can continue to discuss, including the statistics of your companies' assets.
Of course, I have also estimated the value of some of your companies. But because I do not know your exact financial situation, it is only about the total assets.
I will show you now, and if you think it is suitable, we can continue to discuss.
To be honest, I, Li Dong, am not a calculative person.
I have overestimated the value of some companies. But to me, Li Dong, even if you do not have this value, you are worth it if I say you are worth it!
Those who do big things do not bother about trifles. I am not calculative about small things.
Including the acquisition of Carrefour and Gome. I think they are worth that price, and I gave them that price without doing any financial calculations.
It is not that I, Li Dong, am stupid and have too much money. It is because I have already earned a lot of money while we are entangled in this.
Since that is the case, why should I waste my time and drag this on?
Far away is the day after tomorrow, and I hope to get the recognition of some companies before the event.
Far away will be exchanging 20% of the company's shares for this cooperation.
I am not asking for a lot of shares for 20 billion in net assets. About 30% of your companies will be enough.
We are all businessmen, and I do not need to explain to you what to do.
Based on this ratio, it should not be a problem for me to exchange for 20 billion worth of assets, right?
30% of the company's shares will be worth at least 70 billion worth of assets, and this does not include the debts. The total assets of the companies involved will exceed 150 billion.
Far away retail will be included. This way, we will have formed a super alliance with 300 billion worth of assets and close to 500 billion in revenue!
When that time comes, who can compete with us in the country?
Don't just focus on the present. The future is what we are after!
You can imagine, a giant retail group with an annual revenue of more than 500 billion. How big is that?
Apart from Distance, the other nine retail companies in the top ten are not as strong as us even if you combine them together!
This is our capital, our confidence! "
Li Dong's saliva splattered everywhere as he spoke. Then, he said enthusiastically, "If anyone is willing to sign a contract with us, then I, Li Dong, am not a stingy person!
I don't like to procrastinate when I do things. Those who want to cooperate with me tonight, prepare a copy of your report overnight. I'll send someone to check it overnight.
Before tomorrow night, as long as there are no major problems, then the price I offer will not change, and we will directly exchange for equivalent value!
Of course, as an ally, I don't want everyone to use fake materials to deal with me. There's no need for that.
When they finally found out, everyone's faces turned ugly.
How much should it be? If there's a slight difference, I won't chase after such a small matter.
Far away, as our supporters, the first batch of companies that have reached an agreement with us, will take the lead in providing you with guidance on how to rectify the situation and open up online channels.
Lastly, if there are enough companies to cooperate with, we will exchange 20% of our shares.
I'm sorry, I won't be adding any more partners in the future.
It couldn't be helped. In fact, I estimated that there would be around 30 companies, and now there were a total of 46 companies left.
46 companies, the scale would definitely exceed 150 billion, and there are a few large and medium-sized companies.
At this point, I can only choose to give up some of my friends who aren't firm enough. But there's still time. If we cooperate in the future, the companies that remain tonight will be our first partners. "
…
While Li Dong was speaking, many people had disapproving expressions on their faces.
Chu Dequn said to Shen Guojun in a low voice, "He really dares to say that. With his harsh conditions, how many companies will agree to it?
He said 140 billion in total assets, 100 billion in net assets, and he doesn't even want to be short of a big pawn.
Who would be willing to cooperate with such a strong force?
Also, if he takes over our channels, then our lives will be in his hands.
If he's not satisfied, he can cut off our supply channels at any time. Then, we can just wait for death.
In any case, I definitely won't agree to it. CEO Shen, I think we should unite and be tougher, and force him to give in. "
Shen Guojun deeply agreed. He casually picked up the financial statistics that Far away had sent over and looked at it.
As a result, Shen Guojun's heart thumped, and he said without batting an eyelid, "CEO Chu is right. Far away is too strong, too domineering!
Just a little dividend and he's going to dismiss us?
If it's just for this little dividend, why do we need to cooperate with him?
He didn't give any of the promises that should be given, and interfered with things that shouldn't be given.
If I had known earlier, I would have cooperated with Bailian long ago. The conditions they offered are much better than Far away's.
As for online, we're also preparing to go online now, and we've also reached an agreement with Ali. Ali isn't any worse than Far away's, so why should I be bullied by Li Dong?
Alright, I won't stay to continue watching his nonsense.
CEO Chu, I'll leave first. Talk to you later when I'm free. "
Chu Dequn nodded and watched Shen Guojun leave.
After he left, Chu Dequn looked at the estimated assets in his hands, and then walked towards Li Dong.
…
At the same time.
As soon as Shen Guojun left the cafeteria, he picked up the phone and made a call. He said quickly, "Inform all shareholders immediately that a shareholders' meeting will be held tomorrow morning! In addition, ask the finance department to make a classification and statistics of all the statements. I'll rush back overnight now, and no one will be missing tomorrow morning. Tell the shareholders who haven't arrived that they'll bear the consequences! "
"…"
"Nonsense, Yintai Department Store, not Yintai Group!"
"…"
"What's wrong with going public? Can't we be delisted just because we're listed? Nowadays, the value of retail companies has been underestimated again and again. What's the use of going public? How much money can we raise? Don't ask these questions that you shouldn't ask. Just do your job. "
Shen Guojun hung up the phone with a snap and hurried to the car.
In fact, Yintai Department Store had been listed in Hong Kong in 2007, but as a mainland retail company, it didn't last long in Hong Kong.
Even Gome had fallen like this, let alone Yintai.
After Gome was delisted, his good friend Ma Yun also chose to be delisted, which made Shen Guojun have the same idea.
However, the impact of delisting was too great. He was worried that the shareholders wouldn't agree, and he couldn't bear it.
But now the opportunity had come!
Cross-shareholding with Far away. With Li Dong's fame and prestige in all walks of life, delisting now was just to accumulate more strength.
Shen Guojun had thought it through. After delisting, he was not in a hurry to go public. He would wait until Far Away went public.
Once Far Away Retail went public, the value of Far Away's shares in their hands would increase greatly. At that time, Yintai would be re-listed, and then they could maximize the benefits.
Far Away's current asset estimate was higher than the data released when they went public.
Delisting was not a loss for them.
Chu Dequn still wanted him to quit, but he was thinking too much. Jiangzhe was adjacent to Jiangbei, which was one of the core areas of East China. If he didn't agree this time, he would be killed by Li Dong later.
If it weren't for these considerations, how could Shen Guojun be unwilling to cooperate with Ali Bailian until now?
Compared with these two companies, Li Dong was more reliable and safer.
In addition, the value given by Li Dong was not low, so there was nothing to hesitate about.
…
Far Away Canteen.
A few small companies received the asset estimate report and signed a strategic memorandum with Far Away on the spot.
Although the memorandum was not a formal agreement and did not have any legal effect.
But it was an attitude!
In just a few hours, they did not even hesitate and reached an agreement with Far Away. They did not even bargain. Was this sincerity enough?
As they expected, once the memorandum was signed, Li Dong's attitude changed.
Previously, Li Dong did not communicate much with them. But after the memorandum was signed, Li Dong's tone was so kind that they almost thought that they and Li Dong were long lost brothers.
In the canteen.
Li Dong said with a kind face, "The few of you will be a family with me in the future! If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I, Li Dong, will not refuse if I can help! Everyone should communicate more in the future. If there is a need, I can directly transfer some of the shops in the Northern market to you! If you want to expand, that's easy. Your expansion is my expansion. Even if I suffer losses, I will not let my brothers suffer losses with me. Of course, if I suffer losses, my brothers will also suffer losses. So, the best outcome is for everyone to follow me, Li Dong, and live well! "
Everyone did not know whether to laugh or cry. We are the CEO of a proper company, not some hooligan on the street.
Why are you speaking like a big brother in the pugilistic world?
But it must be said that Li Dong's tone and attitude made them feel flattered.
The scale of the companies that signed the memorandum was not too big.
In the local area, they might be considered tycoons. But today, they were not eye-catching and insignificant.
At this moment, Li Dong's attitude made them feel that they had made the right choice.
After Li Dong finished chatting with them, Hsu Shengzhe came over and said, "Li Dong, why didn't you tell me that you are going to divest Far Away Mall? Don't forget, I still have 8% shares in Far Away Mall. Now that you are doing this, how am I going to answer to the people in Longhua? Also, after divestiture, what will happen to our side? Let me ask you one last thing. All of them will get dividends and have supervision rights. As a major shareholder, I will have my rights too, right? "
It was fine if he did not speak. But once he spoke, Li Dong gritted his teeth and said, "You asked me to share my logistics and warehouse channels just now. I still have not found trouble with you! If it wasn't for the fact that we have worked together for so many years, I will slap you to death now! "
Hsu Shengzhe said innocently, "I also have to think about my own benefits, don't you think so? I am also a shareholder of Far Away Mall. You are giving benefits to others but not to me. Isn't this too much? "
"Bullsh * t benefits!"
Li Dong looked at the rest and scolded softly. "Far Away Mall's profit margin is only how much? How much dividends can we get every year? If you really want dividends, Longhua will get more than me. Are you sure you want to do this? It's fine if the two of us just want to do something. Why do you have to get involved? "
Xu Shengzhe took a deep breath and regained his composure. He said slowly, "Seriously, I want to leave a way out for myself.
To be honest, those who are in the real estate industry are all guilty.
If they don't look for trouble with you, then there will be no trouble.
If they look for trouble with you, there will still be trouble.
I have a future generation, and even if I don't look for myself, I have to think for her.
I don't really care about the dividends as it is not a lot of money.
Most importantly, a retail company is more stable than a real estate company.
I will think of a way to split this company and put it under my daughter's name.
Far Away Mall's annual dividends, I don't want it now. You can save it for me and put it under my daughter's name. You can help me manage it. What do you think? "
Seeing Li Dong keeping quiet, Hsu Shengzhe added. "My request is the same as them. I will not be involved in the actual management. This will not affect you. Also, do you think that 25% of Longhua's shares is too little? I can continue to give in. Li Dong, I have not mistreated you all these years, right? My daughter is your goddaughter, and my request is not high. Are you not going to help me with this? What's the difference between giving it to others and giving it to me? "
Li Dong thought for a while and said, "Far Away Mall's net assets are 100 billion. How much is your Longhua …"
"Li Dong!"
Hsu Shengzhe gritted his teeth. "You gave them 100 billion, and you are giving me the same? Our contract is still in our hands. You changed the group's assets without my permission, and I didn't even look for you. Although it's only in name, it's still legal. You are giving me 100 billion. Are you sure you are not embarrassed? "
"Of course I am!"
Li Dong said disapprovingly. "Longhua's net assets are not even 20 billion. How much is 25%? Less than 5 billion. Eight percent of ours, that's eight billion. They can accept it, but you can't? If it's a difference of 100 million or 200 million, I will not say anything for your sake. But it's a difference of a few billion. You are my brother, and I have to settle this with you. "
"You …"
Hsu Shengzhe was furious. "The 300 million you owe me, plus that mansion, and 20% of Longhua's shares, will be exchanged for 5% of the new retail group's shares. If you still have any objections, fine. I will not exchange. You can settle the debt with me first. "
Li Dong curled his lips and said, "Adding all these together, it doesn't even amount to 4 billion. The difference is still 1 billion … "
"Don't you know if you are worth 100 billion? Do you think I am an idiot? You overestimated your offer, and then you overestimated their offers. They felt that it's acceptable, and that's why they accepted it so easily! Now you are talking to me about the actual value. Far away from you, the other party's offer is only around 80 billion. Li Dong, you disappoint me. You treat me worse than an outsider, and I have helped you so many times. Fine. From today onwards, we will never see each other again … "
Hsu Shengzhe's saliva was flying all over the place, and Li Dong just looked at him.
After a while, Hsu Shengzhe said embarrassedly. "Let's not talk about this. You have to agree even if you agree. If not, I will bring my daughter to stay with you for a few months!"
Li Dong pursed his lips and sighed. "Forget it. I don't have many friends, and I will not make things difficult for you. That's all. But let me make this clear. This is for my goddaughter, and it has nothing to do with you. Also, don't forget to send me Longhua's dividends last year … "
"You!"
Hsu Shengzhe was infuriated. He gritted his teeth. "From now on, it's not last year!"
Li Dong stared at him for a while and sneered. "Forget it if you don't agree. Actually, I did not earn anything from you. Longhua has a net worth of 20 billion, and you said it yourself, is it really that much? I can't be bothered to settle these small debts with you. But I am indeed short of money recently. Give me some money to help me get married. Don't you think so? "
Hsu Shengzhe took another deep breath and gritted his teeth. "50 million. Count it as my support for your marriage. If you ask for anything else, I will fight it out with you. Who can spend 50 million to get married! "
"Me!"
Li Dong said matter-of-factly. "50 million is not enough. I am the richest man in the world. How can my marriage be shabby? Forget it. Look at how pitiful you are. So be it. Let's not talk about this. I still have things to do. I will settle some businesses tonight, and it will be much easier for me from now on. "
As for Hsu Shengzhe's false estimate of the other party's business value, Li Dong did not mind it. Everyone knew in their hearts that this was beneficial to everyone. Who would be so bored to break this net?
Many businesses did not increase their value by flattering each other.
This was a mutually beneficial matter, but Hsu Shengzhe still treated it as a weakness. Li Dong despised this little fox in his heart. This little fox was getting more and more stupid!
