The next day.
Shen Xuehua suggested that she and Shen Qian should move to Lan Mountain Villa.
Li Dong was a little surprised and said, "Auntie, the environment of the courtyard is actually not bad. If not, I will ask someone to open up the courtyard on both sides. There is no one living in Qianqian's courtyard now. "
Shen Xuehua snorted, "I like to live in a big house. You don't want to?"
"No, no."
Li Dong was a little helpless. He glanced at Shen Qian and sighed after a while, "Then I will ask someone to clean up the place first. I will send you there later."
Old Shen's menopause is not over yet.
We are living well together. If you suddenly want to move to another place with your daughter, won't you be causing trouble?
Fortunately, the wedding date had been set. Otherwise, with Old Shen's troublemaking personality, Li Dong would definitely have had a venomous tongue.
Seeing Li Dong's reluctance, Shen Xuehua rolled her eyes. Even if you don't want to, I don't want to!
Only her silly daughter would worry that he would be distracted. If she didn't say this earlier, Li Dong might let his imagination run wild.
Li Dong had no choice but to use the child to ensure his status, or to create an established fact.
It was not surprising that Li Dong had such an idea.
Shen Xuehua felt that it was better to say it now. Did Li Dong really want Shen Qian to abort it?
If he dared to say it, Shen Xuehua would dare to drag Old Du to Pingchuan and teach him a lesson.
Ignoring Li Dong, Shen Xuehua said, "We don't need you to send us. We will find someone to clean up the place. You should settle your company's affairs as soon as possible. Don't drag it until the wedding is in a hurry. "
"Don't worry, Auntie. It will definitely be done before June."
Li Dong was confident about this.
Of course, if something else happened in between, it would be hard to say.
Now, Li Dong could only hope that the next few months would be smooth and that nothing would go wrong.
When Shen Qian saw that Li Dong was still at home, she couldn't help but say, "Isn't the airline's first flight today? Aren't you going to the company? "
When Li Dong heard this, he immediately looked at the time and said, "Auntie, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid I don't have time to accompany you today. I still have to go to Ming Lake later to participate in the maiden voyage ceremony. I've already agreed to it, so it's not good to cancel it now … "
When it came to important matters, Shen Xuehua didn't target Li Dong that much. She replied, "Just do what you need to do. We'll make our own arrangements here. I'll ask Qianqian to accompany me to your parents' place later. I should at least let them know when I come. "
Li Dong nodded. He looked at Shen Qian and said, "I won't be taking care of Auntie then. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, you can go now."
…
On the way to Ming Lake.
Li Dong didn't sit in his Maybach. Instead, he changed to a commercial car with a lot more space.
In the car.
Chen Lang reported, "At yesterday's dinner, Wumart said that they can use some cash and additional shares to exchange for all of our assets.
Including those overlapping stores.
According to Wu Jianzhong, after the additional shares, we can probably get about 25% of Wumart's shares after the reorganization.
Wumart's equity structure is very complicated. The founders, Zhang Wenzhong and Wu Jianzhong, are the actual managers of Wumart. They currently hold more than 60% of the shares.
In addition, there are dozens of large and small shareholders and institutions, as well as circulating shareholders in the secondary market.
After acquiring our assets, Wumart's scale will increase greatly. After the dilution, Wumart's founding team will still hold about 45% of the shares … "
Li Dong frowned and said, "How much cash?"
"1 billion."
"Tell them to get lost!"
Li Dong scolded, "Do you think I'm an idiot?
After the reorganization, can Wumart's net assets exceed 10 billion?
Their debt ratio is frighteningly high. Don't think that their scale in the north is small. In fact, they may not necessarily have more assets than Yintai.
Although my actual investment in Beijing is less than 5 billion, according to the current professional estimates, it will definitely not be less than 4 billion.
In the end, I only took 25% of the shares and 1 billion in cash?
Saying that they have a net asset of 10 billion is already praising them. Add it all up and count it as 8 billion.
After going back and forth, I lost 1 billion. Do you think I'm a fool?
I didn't close down because of the business downturn. Don't tell me Wu Jianzhong and the rest don't know why?
A premium of 20% is reasonable. They still want to take advantage of me? How dare they think.
Go back and tell Wu Jianzhong that there's no need to talk if they are not sincere.
This time, the value of the department stores in the Beijing area is less than 5 billion. I won't sell them. If it really doesn't work, I'll leave them empty! "
Chen Lang said softly, "But the prices given by the few companies are not high, including China Resources and other companies."
After saying that, Chen Lang said again, "Moreover, the opinions of the few companies are very unified. They will accept it as a package and not split it. Far away, the scale effect will be formed. If it is split, it will not be able to form a scale effect. They are also not willing. I guess they should have communicated behind the scenes. This time, the few companies have the same opinion … … "
"Contact Gao Xin and Wal-Mart. Oh yes, also Makro and Tesco. Ask if they are interested.
It's not that the Faraway Supermarket in the Beijing area cannot sell, but it's up to me whether I want to or not.
Do they really think they can take advantage of me?
Based on the current market situation, 5 billion in the Beijing area is not considered high.
Far away has achieved an annual revenue of 7 billion and an annual profit of more than 400 million. This is much better than those second and third-tier supermarkets they acquired.
We are not passively closing down. Our potential customer base is still there.
The earlier we reopen, the less people we will lose.
If they follow us and drag it out until the end, when there are supermarkets opening next to us, our value will be greatly reduced.
I know what they mean. Either we lower the price or drag it out.
At the same time, when they drag us out, the stores will be in the same area, and they will be able to take over the customer base we lost.
It's a good idea, but it depends on whether I am willing or not.
If it is not possible, don't we have supermarkets in the Beijing area this time?
The neighboring ones are fine too. We can just use them to exchange. I will let them benefit, but not these few. "
Chen Lang nodded. "Then I will talk to them again. Actually, I don't think it's meaningful to invest in these few companies.
The controlling shares are not in our hands, and we can't control them like small and medium-sized enterprises.
With our shares in hand, other than the effect in name, there is no actual additional effect.
Instead, they can use our fame to expand their own influence.
So, when we cooperate with these big companies, I suggest that we do not use cash to buy them directly, or we can use the stores in the southern area to exchange.
As for the shares, unless we have the idea of controlling shares, there is no meaning and the effect will be limited. "
Li Dong pondered for a moment and nodded. "Then we will do it this way. But we have to do it as soon as possible. Qi Yunna has already gone to Beijing to deal with the aftermath. The problems of the employees and the distribution channels can be solved quickly if we do not care about the cost. At the same time, I hope to solve the store problem. "
"We will speed up."
Chen Lang replied. After he finished speaking, Li Dong looked at Cao Jinsheng. "You have to speed up on your side and discuss the cooperation with Tianhong Fund.
Currently, we do not need to ask for absolute controlling shares.
Of course, it is best if we can have absolute controlling shares. Anyway, the sooner we settle it, the better. If the controlling shares are above 30%, we will have the foundation to continue the discussion.
Tianhong Fund is not well-known, and they are the ones benefiting from working with us Far away.
They should know how to choose between gains and losses.
What I want is to be fast. We must get it before April!
After all, it will take at least a month for the fund to be launched.
If we do not get it in April, we will not be able to launch it in May.
And if the virtual currency fund cannot be launched in May, you can also resign early. "
Cao Jinsheng was the CEO of Far away Technology Finance Group, and one of the board members of Far away Technology Group.
In the past, the finance group did not have much influence.
Before the emergence of QR code payment, before the Red Envelope System, and before Wantoon was no match for Alipay, his influence as the CEO of the finance group was far less than that of the presidents of Far Away Mall and PP.
However, in 2008, Wantoon grew at an astonishing speed.
Especially in the mobile market, Wantoon was the undisputed king. Although this king did not have a large customer base, it was the king in one field.
Coupled with the Far Away Mall and the Red Envelope System, these two had attracted a large inflow of funds.
As the CEO of the finance group, his position in Far Away Technology Group was becoming more and more important.
Now, Li Dong wanted to use Wantoon as a traffic entrance to launch a virtual currency fund. Even if it did not reach the trillions that Li Dong said, even if it was only a hundred billion, it would greatly increase the influence of Wantoon.
When Li Dong said this, Cao Jinsheng immediately nodded. "I have arranged for people to start contacting the other party. As long as the other party is interested, I will immediately lead a team to Tianjin to negotiate. General Manager Li, don't worry. Nowadays, who doesn't want to cooperate with Faraway Group? Tianhong Fund is just a small fund company. Among the current public funds, the other party is also one of the few companies that are still in a loss-making state. If we are willing to cooperate, they will definitely agree. "
Li Dong said faintly, "It's good to have confidence, but before things are done, we have to be steady. Although Tianhong is not good, I value their background. I will make this clear to you in advance. Don't go back and directly buy them out. If the other shareholders withdraw, then I will simply find another fund company. I can't let the Tianjin Trust and the Arms Finance Corporation retreat no matter what! As for Zhangze Electric Power, it doesn't matter if they leave or not. Do you understand what I mean? "
Cao Jinsheng's face turned serious and immediately said, "Understood, we will not let these two companies go!"
With a military background and a human background, Li Dong did not need to consider other people.
Of course, there was a price to pay for borrowing the tiger's skin. This was inevitable.
However, Li Dong really did not care too much about the money that the fund company earned. As long as he had the right to speak, it was enough for the time being.
As for the future, he would wait until the Virtual Currency Fund grew bigger.
He was just about to end the topic when Cao Jinsheng hesitated and said, "General Manager Li, we can't always call it Virtual Currency Fund. Why don't you give this fund a name first?"
"Name?"
When it came to naming, Li Dong had a headache.
This was something he was not good at!
After thinking for a while, Li Dong probed, "Lai Qian Bao?"
"Cough, cough, cough …"
Everyone in the car coughed. This name could not be any more vulgar!
Cao Jinsheng laughed against his conscience and said, "General Manager Li, this name is really good. It hit the nail on the head. Vulgar is elegant, and it is easy to understand … "
As he spoke, Liu Hong nudged him from the side, and Cao Jinsheng immediately shut his mouth in embarrassment.
There were several managers who were more senior than him in the car.
These people did not flatter him, so it was better not to flatter him.
Li Dong also glanced at him and said angrily, "Don't say things against your heart. It's a bit vulgar. Forget it, I'm too lazy to name it. Yu E Bao it is. "
"Yu E Bao!"
When the people in the car heard this, they thought for a while. Liu Hong said, "This is not bad. We already have a balance account. Now our goal is to convert the funds in the balance account into a Virtual Currency Fund. The money in the balance account has gained income. Calling it Yu E Bao is indeed feasible. "
"General Manager Li is really good. A random name is much better than what we thought. Previously, the planning department gave a long list of names, but we didn't think it was suitable … "
In the car, flattery sounded again.
Li Dong was speechless and said, "That's it. What's so good about it?
Besides, this name is not good at all. It's just a balance account. What's the deep meaning?
Alright, there's no need to worry about these small things. You must be quick.
The faster the fund goes online, the more things we can do.
Go back to Beijing and apply for a 10 billion corporate bond. If it passes, we will use Yu E Bao's funds to absorb part of it and convert the unusable money into usable money.
Although the interest is higher than the bank, it won't be much higher. The management fees will be earned back.
In the future, when the scale is larger, we can quickly transfuse blood through other situations.
Now the group is almost an empty shell.
Far away City's speed has completely slowed down. If this continues, let alone two years, it won't even be possible in five years!
We can get 100 billion from Yu E Bao to support our development. As long as there are no problems, this 100 billion will always be ours. "
Everyone was speechless. The boss was still black-hearted.
Why did he say that 100 billion would always be theirs?
Yu E Bao's funds and how to use them were all decided by the fund company. Securities institutions generally did not participate and were only responsible for supervision.
If Li Dong issued corporate bonds and used the money to buy them, he could issue another batch of bonds when they were about to mature. As long as they did not mature at the same time, the money would always flow within Faraway Group.
Unless one day, Yu E Bao went bankrupt, then Far away would need to fully return the money.
However, the number of 100 billion was still too high in the eyes of everyone. There was not much hope, but 10 billion, everyone felt that there was still hope.
At least, Wan Tong's current funds were more than 10 billion.
Li Dong did not care how they slandered him. Whether it was black-hearted or not, that was their opinion. Li Dong did not want to take the money and run away. It was not that he did not want to pay interest. What was there to black-hearted about?
Buying other corporate bonds, was it safer to buy Far away?
Not to mention the long term, at least for three to five years, Faraway Group would not collapse.
After three to five years, he did not necessarily have to use Yu E Bao's funds to maintain his own development.
This kind of mutually beneficial thing, in Li Dong's view, was also for the sake of the users.
Even if those users knew about it, would they still question it when the money was transferred to Distance?
Nowadays, many institutions at home and abroad wanted to invest money in Far away, but Li Dong was not willing.
Using the money now was called giving back to the customers.
Without thinking about these things, Li Dong looked at the time and accelerated his tone, "Yu E Bao's matter has to be dealt with as a big matter. Now the group has no money, and I am having a headache because of you. Now I have thought of a way to find money for you, and it is just a step away from execution. If you can't do this step well, I don't need you anymore. I will just take charge of the group alone. All of you, work hard and don't drop the ball! When Wan Tong goes public and has a market value of hundreds of billions or even trillions, who won't benefit? "
Everyone nodded hurriedly. Liu Hong waited for him to finish and said, "General Manager Li, there is also the Weibo C Series financing …"
Before he finished speaking, the car slowly stopped.
Li Dong had already seen Lan Xingguo outside the car and interrupted, "We will talk about this when I go back. You guys first complete the plan and show it to me. I will give my opinion after I read it."
Liu Hong nodded hurriedly. Now that Li Dong was so busy, everyone seized the time to talk about it, lest the boss forgot.
