Zhang Lanyu said that she was leaving, but when she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and walked back.
Li Dong said gloomily, "What's wrong? Are you looking for trouble again?"
"Do you think I will?"
Zhang Lanyu sneered and paused for a moment before saying, "There's something. I don't know if it's useful to you or not. Anyway, think about it yourself. This matter was casually mentioned by a friend of mine. I think it makes sense. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. What is it?"
"When I went out to relax, someone at a friend's gathering talked about you. And that friend of mine said that you are the next Tang Wanxing. "
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and was not in a hurry to speak.
Seeing this, Zhang Lanyu said, "Do you know Tang Wanxing?"
"Yes, the head of the Delong Group."
"Yes, he was once a legend of a private enterprise. Although he is not as famous as you, he is also a legendary figure in the industry. When he was arrested in 2004, do you know what charges he was charged with? "
Li Dong's pupils shrank slightly as he said lightly, "Covertly absorbing public deposits and illegally manipulating securities trading prices. He was sentenced to eight years."
"It's good that you know. There are people in the financial industry who analyzed that Wankon is now taking this path. And the acquisition of Gome is likely to be dug out again. You are too ostentatious now. Tang Wanxing's fate might be your fate. This is what people usually say, and I usually don't take it too seriously. But this time, the person who said this is more well-informed. I guess he might have heard something … "
Li Dong frowned and said, "I'm different from Tang Wanxing!
He is the banker, I'm not!
Forget it, it's useless to tell you about this. You don't have to worry. How can I, Li Dong, be taken down so easily!
Tang Wanxing's Delong Group is just an empty shell. He is different from me.
Just because he can take down Tang Wanxing doesn't mean he can take down me.
There are more than one or two people targeting me. I'm already used to it. But I still have to thank you for reminding me about this. I had some thoughts before, but I was still a little negligent. "
Li Dong was talking about the Virtual Currency Fund. Previously, he was prepared to force his way into it.
Maybe someone saw through it and felt that Wan Kung Tong had accumulated a lot of money. Li Dong would sooner or later have his eyes on this money and had been keeping an eye on it.
If Li Dong were to act rashly and forcefully, he would very likely end up like Tang Wanxing.
In his previous life, when Ali went online to buy Yu 'e Bao, he acquired Tianhong Fund.
Previously, Li Dong did not think too much about it, but recently, he was preparing to launch a virtual currency fund, so he got someone to do some research.
After watching, Li Dong finally understood why Ali would choose Tianhong, who was currently a nobody.
As a southern group, it was not normal for Ali to choose a northern fund company.
What's more, it's an unknown fund company!
However, if one had a deeper understanding of him, they would understand that Ma Yun wasn't as impulsive as they thought.
Don't be fooled by him clamoring to catch me when he went online with Alipay and Yu 'e Bao. In fact, he had made sufficient preparations.
Tianhong might not be big, but the other party was very qualified and had a national public fund license.
How could a small company get this kind of qualification?
Not everyone could get a national public fund license.
The key was that Tianhong had a strong background.
Before Ali and Junzheng invested in Tianhong, it had three original shareholders — Armaments Finance, Jinmen Trust, and Zhangze Power.
These three major shareholders were all extraordinary existences.
Armaments Finance was the financial window of Hua Xia Arms Industry Group and Armaments Equipment Group. It controlled almost the entire military equipment industry, and its military background was terrifying.
Jinmen Trust was also an official organization, established by the People's Bank of China's Tianjin Branch.
Zhangze Power. One would know its background just by looking at it.
Ma Yun didn't choose Tianhong without thinking. He must have thought about it for a long time before making his choice.
In the beginning, Ali wasn't the controlling shareholder. It wasn't that he couldn't control it, but he didn't want to and didn't dare to.
Later on, when Yu 'e Bao was the biggest, legal, and accepted, there was a change of shareholders.
Even so, the Weapons Finance Company and Tianjin Trust Company had never disappeared from the list of shareholders, which showed how powerful they were.
Now that Zhang Lanyu felt the need to remind Li Dong, many people had noticed the Wan Tong.
In fact, when Li Dong clamored to promote the internet financial industry at the Internet conference last year, many people noticed the Wan Tong.
After that, Li Dong transferred the balance of his account, which made some people wary.
If Li Dong were to force his way into the virtual fund, it would be a good excuse, and he might be attacked until he had nowhere to hide.
However, Li Dong wasn't as impulsive as he imagined.
He called Ma Yun and the rest to share the pressure.
However, it was true that Li Dong hadn't thought of finding someone to protect him before. Now that Zhang Lanyu had said that someone was saying that he was the next Tang Wanxing, he couldn't let them have their way.
If Ali could do it, why couldn't he, Li Dong?
It was just finding someone to back him up. Ali probably hadn't noticed Tianhong yet, and it wasn't like he couldn't work with them.
With the military and the People's Bank of China backing him, illegally absorbing public deposits was nonsense.
If he had the ability, he could settle the score with them.
As for illegally manipulating the stock prices, it might be related to Li Dong's large participation in the acquisition of Gome.
However, after Gome privatized the matter, its influence had been reduced to the lowest.
Without the previous incident, the subsequent incident wouldn't have been able to stir up a fuss.
Li Dong exhaled, looked at the time, and said, "No matter what, I still have to thank you for this time. I have to say, you're quite well-informed. If something like this happens again, let me know in advance. I realized that there are a lot of powerful people now. D * mn, they can guess anything they do. "
Others might not be able to guess about the virtual currency fund, but they should be able to guess that Far away was short of funds. Moreover, Wan Tong had accumulated tens of billions, and Li Dong might not be able to hold himself back.
As long as he kept an eye on this and found an entry point in the financial sector, it would be easy to defeat Li Dong once and for all.
Tens of billions of funds were misappropriated, and his crime was more serious than Tang Wanxing's.
He had only misappropriated a few billion, and he was also a legendary figure in the private sector. He would still be sentenced to eight years in prison.
Li Dong had tens of billions of funds, and it wouldn't be a problem to double it. If he were to go to prison for 16 years, everything would be for nothing.
Thinking of this, Li Dong admired Old Ma. He had good foresight.
He had chosen a fund company for himself in advance, and it saved him the trouble of checking them one by one.
It was Tianhong!
As for what would happen to Old Ma and the rest, Li Dong was in front, and they wouldn't be under much pressure.
Moreover, public fund companies usually had powerful backgrounds, and they wouldn't have as much trouble as Li Dong.
Currently, Old Ma was a nobody. His Brother Ma had been in business for a long time, and he had deep connections in Guangdong Province. Furthermore, he was focused on the internet, and he didn't have as many opponents as Li Dong.
Li Dong stepped up to share most of the pressure, and the two of them weren't the focus of the firepower.
Zhang Lanyu smiled. "It's fine as long as you think it's useful. Actually, it's just hearsay, and I almost forgot to mention it.
I'll tell you in advance if something like this happens again.
But I think you should tell Shen Qian. Sometimes, our circle is more well-informed than the business world.
She doesn't have much contact with this circle, and other than Jiangbei, you're still a little out of touch with other places.
People like us, who enjoy the support of our parents, know more about the things around us.
Let Shen Qian communicate with us more often. It's not enough for you to do business alone, and you're dragging her along. There's not much meaning in that. "
Zhang Lanyu's words weren't false. As a business tycoon, Li Dong wasn't considered to be out of touch with the news.
But in comparison, sometimes the news they received wasn't first-hand news, and Hua Xia was so old that they didn't care about this sometimes.
As for these second-generation heirs, their relationships were complicated, and they communicated with the whole of Hua Xia.
Sometimes, they could get some news that ordinary people didn't know with just a few words from their fathers.
Sometimes, it wasn't the fathers' subjective intention to leak the news.
But there were many elites among the second-generation heirs, and there were even more smart people. They could guess some of the more confidential information with just a few words.
After Zhang Lanyu finished speaking, Li Dong smiled and said, "We'll talk about it later, there's no need to force it. I didn't care about this before, and I'll just drive a few nails in later. There's no need to go through the trouble. Moreover, with Shen Qian's relationship with me, if there's news about me, no one will tell her. It's unnecessary. "
"That seems to be the case."
Zhang Lanyu smiled and walked away. "Then I'm leaving. Next time, before you call me an old woman, think about your wife."
After saying that, Zhang Lanyu officially left.
After she left, Li Dong called out, "Bai Su, come in."
Bai Su quickly entered the room. Li Dong said, "Collect the information about Tianhong Fund for me. Also, ask Liu Hong and Cao Jinsheng to come to my office in the afternoon."
After saying that, Li Dong picked up his coat and said, "I'm going to Tianhu Hotel. Ma Yun and the others didn't rush me, right?"
"No, I just made a call this morning."
"Why is it so quiet?"
Li Dong mumbled, but he didn't say anything else and walked out.
…
Tianhu Hotel.
In the presidential suite.
While Ma Yun and Ma Huateng were discussing in a low voice, Liu Chuanzhi knocked on the door and entered.
Seeing the two of them together, Yanagi Chuanzhi could not help but laugh and say, "In the past, your relationship seemed to be just so-so. Now, it's almost impossible for you to leave each other's side. Just because of this, I have to treat Li Dong to a meal. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have this relationship now. "
Ma Huateng laughed. "Brother, now you're learning to be mean with that guy, and we still want to treat him to a meal? In his dreams. "
After laughing for a while, Ma Huateng asked again, "Brother, are you going back?"
Liu Chuanzhi shook his head and said, "I have to wait for a while. Don't you have an appointment with Li Dong? I happen to have something to discuss with him. Of course, I also want to discuss it with you. But let's wait for him to come and discuss it together. "
The two of them didn't ask any more questions, but Liu Chuanzhi teased Ma Yun again. "Didn't you say you wanted to kill that guy last night? Are you ready? "
Ma Yun laughed and said, "Forget about killing him, but I'm ready to throw a cup as a signal. There are assassins lying in wait in the room."
The few of them laughed.
After chatting for a while, there was another knock on the door. Ma Huateng's assistant came forward to open the door.
The moment Li Dong entered, he laughed and said, "You old men staying in the same room, aren't you afraid of others gossiping? Let's find a place to chat over tea. "
Just as he said that, Ma Yun walked over casually. Li Dong didn't care, but before he could react, Ma Yun suddenly lunged forward, squatted down, grabbed his thigh, and threw him to the side.
Li Dong was completely unprepared. In the end, he was knocked down by the thin Ma Yun.
The hotel room was covered in thick carpets, so Ma Yun wasn't afraid that he would fall to his death. After he fell, he immediately scolded, "B * stard, who asked you to make fun of me every day! You're still watching. Take revenge if you have a grudge. This b * stard bodyguard is outside! "
As soon as he said that, he saw that Ma Yun had already quickly attacked. He dragged Li Dong's leg and didn't let him get up.
Ma Huateng hesitated for a second before he got up and rushed over. He said, "A gentleman uses his mouth, not his fists. There's no need to do this. Li Dong, get up."
As he said that, he rushed over and pressed down on Li Dong's flailing hands.
As for Li Dong, who was underground, he was completely dumbfounded. Upon seeing this, he cursed angrily, "F * * k, you're crazy. You're really beating me up! Old Man Liu, help me get rid of them! "
Liu Chuanzhi, who was watching the show, was suddenly stunned. After a while, the corners of his mouth twitched as he took a step forward. What did this bastard call him?
Old Man Liu?
It was said that drunk people speak the truth. In a moment of desperation, it was an instinctive reaction.
In that case, this kid had scolded me, Old Man Liu?
As Liu Chuanzhi thought about it, he went forward and grabbed his other leg. He chuckled and said, "I'm just joking. Don't move. Don't hurt yourself. Dongzi, listen to me. In the future, be more merciful with your words. Old Ma's temper is so good. Look at him now. He can't wait to eat you up. However, Old Ma is also like that. It's fine to make a joke. If word got out that he had really thrown him to the ground, he would be a laughing stock if others saw it. Dongzi is known as the best fighter among the entrepreneurs. If you throw him to the ground, how can he go out and face others? "
As Old Liu spoke, he winked at Ma Yun. Ma Yun immediately understood. The two of them lifted Li Dong's leg and dragged it to the conference table.
Li Dong's face turned green. He cursed, "Don't mess around. My bodyguards will be here soon. They have guns. I didn't do anything to you. Hitting and scolding is love. What's wrong with saying a few words … "
Seeing that he was still being unreasonable at this time, Ma Yun panted and said with a smile, "You said it yourself. Hitting and scolding is love. We are doting on you now."
"F * * k, stop dragging the table leg!"
"My suit costs tens of thousands. F * * k, if it's wrinkled, who's going to pay me!"
"…"
Li Dong cursed for a while until a few people dragged him to the table. Only then did Ma Yun throw his leg away and say while panting, "This bastard is so heavy. We should have recorded a video just now. Let him be arrogant in the future! "
Ma Huateng also let go of Li Dong's arm and said with a smile, "Old Ma, you are still not bold enough. If it were me, I would definitely seize the opportunity to beat him up. He was bullied like this, and you let it go? "
They all laughed. Li Dong, who was at the side, also got up. He tidied up his messy clothes and cursed, "How can I go out and meet people like this? I stayed in the room with a few old men. What would people think if they saw my clothes all wrinkled? You guys are shameless, but I am. I have to remind you that my wife has spies here. When they come later, none of you can escape. "
The three people laughed, but after laughing, Ma Huateng still remembered that there were outsiders in the room. Looking at the stunned assistant next to him, Ma Huateng said lightly, "You go out first. Don't talk nonsense. Be careful that someone will kill you to keep it a secret."
The assistant nodded hurriedly and ran out of the room as if she was running for her life.
Seeing her scared look, everyone burst into laughter again.
Li Dong dusted off his clothes and scolded with a smile, "Why did you scare her? Am I that kind of person? But really, this matter can't be spread. I'll accept it if it's someone else, but I'm really not convinced that it's Old Ma. If it's spread, I don't want to go out for a few months. "
Ma Huateng said with a smile, "Then you'd better not go out, or you'll cause us trouble. Don't talk nonsense. Let's go out and have a chat. I heard that you opened a club. Let's go together and relax. After talking, we should go. "
"It's not mine. It's Hsu Shengzhe's. Forget it. It's all the same. Let's go."
Li Dong didn't dwell on the matter just now. Every day, he would push people around and make them angry. He might as well help them vent their anger, lest they get sick from anger one day. If they died from anger, it wouldn't be fun.
