When Li Dong walked over there, the staff from Far Away whispered something beside him.
Previously, when these IT giants came, Far Away was accompanied by staff.
Not only the normal staff, but some of the Tencent executives were also there.
However, previously, it was the representatives of the major companies who were speaking, and they were mainly talking about e-commerce. It had little to do with Tencent, so the Tencent people did not say anything.
At this moment, the staff member briefly repeated their conversation just now.
After listening, Li Dong did not say anything. However, when he walked into the crowd, the first sentence that Li Dong said made many people raise their eyebrows.
"I didn't expect to see all of you at the Tencent's promotion conference. I thought that I would at least have the opportunity to meet all of you when Far Away Mall and Weibo got listed. Of course, you may not come at that time. "
Li Dong said with a smile and a slightly joking tone.
He did not speak in English, but in Mandarin.
Li Dong's English was actually not bad. Even if it was very bad before, he often dealt with foreigners in the past few years. Not to mention grammar, simple communication was not a problem.
However, today, this was Li Dong's home ground. No matter how big the background of these people was, they were only a foil.
As the host, Li Dong naturally did not need to cater to these foils. After all, they were not investors. It was good enough that these guys did not cause trouble.
The rise and fall of Tencent's share price had little to do with these people.
It was not a problem that he spoke Mandarin. The problem was that his last sentence had a deep meaning.
What did he mean by "may not come"?
Li Dong was obviously not saying that they could not come because they were too busy or that they were not interested. What he meant was that these people might not have the face to come if they were surpassed by the rising stars.
Mandarin was broad and profound. The foreigners on the other side might not understand it. When translated, sometimes the meaning would change.
However, almost everyone who understood Mandarin understood the underlying meaning of his words.
Among the foreigners, some of them seemed to have understood. Their expressions were obviously a little strange.
Li Dong didn't continue this topic. He smiled and said, "No matter what, I'm still very grateful to everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend the Tencent's promotion meeting. Far away and Tencent are flattered that so many elites and leaders in the IT industry value Tencent so much. "
As he spoke, Li Dong said in a clear voice, "Everyone here has seen it. Tencent is not just the Tencent Far away, nor is it just Hua Xia's Tencent, but the Tencent of the world! Before the launch, just for the sake of the friends and leaders who are here today, we have to raise the price by one US dollar! "
"Cough, cough, cough …"
"General Manager Li sure knows how to joke."
"Yes, yes, General Manager Li, the promotion meeting is about to start. Don't joke around at this time."
"It's not the first time General Manager Li is joking …"
Everyone in the crowd quickly laughed dryly.
Damn. Li Dong can't be expected to follow the procedures.
Before the launch, he wants to raise the price. This is the first time in a corporate roadshow.
It's already 50 HKD, and it will continue to rise. 1 US dollar doesn't sound much, but it's close to 8 HKD.
Li Dong wants to raise 8 billion HKD with just one sentence? Since when is money so easy to earn?
The people opposite Li Dong looked at each other. Some of them don't understand Chinese, and after the translator finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded. This guy really lives up to his reputation.
It could be said that this was their first impression of Li Dong.
Most people would be trembling with fear at this moment.
After all, the financing amount is too high, and the price is too high. This makes people nervous.
But Li Dong is not afraid that everyone will leave after hearing what he said.
Li Dong did not give them time to think and laughed. "I am indeed joking. But if the number of subscriptions today exceeds 5 billion USD, it will not be a joke.
Of course, the more subscriptions, the more profits everyone will have.
Therefore, for now, everyone should continue to suffer. Think carefully about whether you want to buy it on the spot later.
In Hong Kong, including China, if the subscription amount exceeds 10 billion USD, it will stop.
Actually, according to me, everything is clear for Tencent, and there is no point in holding a promotion meeting.
But since everyone has this demand, there is no need for us to act alone.
Later, Tencent's CEO, Mr. Liu Zhiping, will give a brief introduction. We will not waste anyone's time. If the company is good, we will buy it. If not, we will consider holding it after it is listed.
That's all for now. Everyone, sit down and let's listen together. "
After speaking, Li Dong did not go to the front. He sat down next to Ma Yun and the others.
The executives of Tencent began to walk to the front desk.
As soon as he sat down, Ma Huateng frowned and said, "It is better not to make trouble now."
Li Dong's provocation did not work every time.
Provoking these investors at this time might have a negative effect in the end.
Li Dong smiled faintly and said, "Just listen. The stock price is going up, and you are making money. Why do you have so much to say?"
"You …"
Ma Huateng was a little angry. Zhang Zidong, who was beside him, quickly said, "The promotion meeting has begun!"
After saying that, Ma Huateng snorted and did not continue talking to Li Dong.
But Li Dong did not care about that. He turned to look at Meg and grinned. "I did not expect Madam Meg to come in person today. I am flattered. I heard that Madam Meg is running for governor. If she loses the election, I wonder if Madam Meg is interested in the role of CEO of Far Away E-Commerce International? "
"Pfft!"
Lei Jun, who had just picked up a bottle of water to drink, spat it out. The mouths of the big shots sitting near Li Dong twitched. They were a little ashamed to be associated with him.
Could this guy not embarrass himself?
She was still running for governor. Now he was saying that she lost the election. Was there a need to poach people like this?
If Li Dong said that to an official in Hua Xia, he would be hated for life.
Of course, it was better in America, but it was not a good thing. Meg had spent hundreds of millions of dollars to run for governor.
At this time, there was still a lot of hope.
They felt embarrassed. The experienced Meg heard the translation and smiled. "Lee, if I really lose the election, I'm glad you gave me this opportunity. But why is it only the International E-Commerce Department and not the Far Away E-Commerce International Department? "
Li Dong was still smiling. "Madam Meg's ability is obvious to all. She has been in charge of eBay for ten years. From 5 million USD to 8 billion USD, the growth rate has been more than 50% for many years, shocking even Wall Street. However, as the pioneer of e-commerce, I was still a little doubtful that Amazon was so far ahead of eBay. If you don't mind, Madam Meg can start as the CEO of the International E-Commerce Department. Maybe in the end, the entire Faraway Group will be even more glorious under your leadership. "
Li Dong's words attracted everyone's attention, and they secretly eavesdropped on their conversation.
Meg's ability was obvious to all. She had almost reached the pinnacle of being a professional manager.
If Li Dong could really make Meg the CEO of Far Away E-Commerce in Europe and America, it would be a hundred times better than hiring someone else.
But Meg was the CEO of eBay before, and now she was running for governor. Would she consider the position of the International E-Commerce Department's CEO?
In this life, Meg's election had just started, and no one knew if she would succeed or fail.
In Feng Yu's previous life, even though Meg had lost the election, she was still used as a lifeline by HP and was hired by them to take charge of HP. Just being the CEO of the international department was obviously not enough.
But everyone was also confused. Meg should be preparing for the election now.
Why did Hua Xia suddenly appear and attend the Tencent's conference? This was what made everyone suspicious.
They were confused, but Meg ignored them and said with a smile, "It's still too early to talk about this. If Lee is willing to wait, I will consider it."
"It's a pity. It's not as interesting as the business world. Far Away But now in the international market, there are constant battles. It's so exciting … "
From the beginning to the end, Li Dong sounded like he was joking.
But in fact, he was really tempted.
It was very difficult to enter the European and American markets, especially with Hua Xia's online payment system.
The local government would not let Wan Tong enter the market so easily.
That's why they needed someone with great influence in the local government to break through the barriers.
Did Meg have this ability?
Yes!
Since she was running for governor and was even planning to use the governor as a stepping stone to run for a higher position, she must have the support of her party.
Not only in the US, but eBay was also the parent company of PayPal, the top payment system in Europe and America. Meg was the one who made the decision to buy PayPal.
If Meg could let PayPal enter the European and American markets and enter other countries, that meant she could also let Wan Tong enter these countries.
So far away was lacking in all these areas.
For cross-border e-commerce, the payment system was very important. Only when their own payment system entered the market, would it be a complete cross-border e-commerce.
If not, the core business data would still be in the hands of others, and that would be incomplete.
For a professional manager like Meg, she was not afraid of not being able to find another company. Far away was in the world's top 500 companies, but it was still hard to poach people.
At Meg's level, in order not to lose their reputation, these professional managers chose their companies, not the other way around.
That was the end of their conversation.
Meg had not lost the election yet, and it was still too early to talk about this.
Li Dong had brought this up because Meg was here. Since she was here, it meant she was interested.
If she was not interested, why would she have the time to come to this Tencent's conference?
Li Dong only chatted with Meg for a while. He did not say anything to the rest. They were all the bosses of their companies, and he could not poach them Far away. There was no point in chatting so much.
No matter how famous they were, they could not be as famous as Li Dong. It was a waste of saliva to chat too much.
The crowd stopped chatting and looked at Liu Zhiping, who was explaining the Tencent Vision.
