Complicated and contradictory. That was Sister Juan's definition of Li Dong.
August 19th.
Lanshan Club.
Hsu Shengzhe also used this term. Looking at Li Dong, who was getting more and more mature, Hsu Shengzhe pondered for a long time before saying, "In my eyes, you are getting more and more complicated and unfathomable."
Li Dong drank his tea and smiled. "Why do you say that?"
Hsu Shengzhe shook his head. "I can't explain it clearly. But these few years, although you don't seem to have changed much, in my eyes, the changes are beyond imagination.
That year, at Lanshan Villa, Chen Rui's birthday party, I met you for the first time.
At that time, my first impression was that a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger, a child from a poor family, seizing the opportunity and climbing up at all costs.
At that time, it was not difficult for you to understand.
But as you walked step by step, halfway through, I felt that you and I were the same kind of person, and ultimately could not escape the vanity fair.
But now, Tencent's stock price has soared, and its market value has exceeded 60 billion USD, and it is still rising …
But at this time, to be honest, your indifference makes me feel a little awkward.
I thought that when we met today, the first thing you would say was how much Tencent's stock price was, and that I would never be able to surpass you in my lifetime.
But from the beginning to the end, you did not mention a word about Tencent.
Li Dong, tell me, are you a complicated person? Or is it really because you have become the world's richest man that your heart is as calm as still water? "
Li Dong chuckled and said, "You're such a cheap person. Do you really need me to provoke you? Then let me provoke you. Tencent's stock price opened at 85 HKD today, and its market value has exceeded 510 billion HKD. You will never be able to catch up to the value of my grandson's company in your lifetime. Are you satisfied with that? "
Hsu Shengzhe laughed and shook his head again. "Forget it, I am not looking for trouble.
Also, Longhua's listing date has been confirmed.
September 1st, Tuesday. Longhua will be officially listed on that day.
The offering price is set at 6 HKD.
In the next few days, Weibo will be listed, and we will also start the subscription plan.
Now that the stock market is active, and there are many people entering the market, let's see if Longhua can create a miracle.
After all, you have frozen 800 billion HKD just from the public offering. In the past, I thought the investors do not have money. But now, it seems that everyone has a lot of money.
"No matter how high Tencent rises, you have a lot of shares. You have 800 billion HKD, but less than 100 billion has entered the market.
Since the rest of the investors cannot buy Tencent's shares, they will buy Longhua's shares.
Since no one can can buy Tencent shares, it will is.
"…"
As the two of them were talking, someone suddenly walked over from the side.
The person didn't speak. He walked up to the two of them and looked at Li Dong with a smile. After a while, he said, "It's said that Li Dong doesn't like women but men. I've seen you two chatting privately many times. It seems that the rumors are true."
Li Dong's face darkened, and Hsu Shengzhe smiled bitterly, "Lan Yu, you don't have to slander us the moment we meet, do you?"
Zhang Lanyu sighed, "It's not slander, it's jealousy. The higher Li Dong is going, the more likely I am to have good foresight back then. Unfortunately, this young man doesn't like me. There are so many women out there, but he rejected me, which makes me feel awkward. Now, I'm chatting with a man like you. I've disappeared for so long, and I haven't even called him. I'm afraid he has forgotten that I exist. "
Li Dong shook his head with a smile, and asked Zhang Lanyu to sit down, "Don't add to the mess. I'm a mess now."
Zhang Lanyu laughed, "You're a mess? Obviously not in your career. People don't call you Cannon Bro anymore, they call you God of the East. It's impossible in your career. You're still young, so it's obvious that you're not worried about other things. Then it's in your relationship, why don't you tell Sis Zhang that Shen Qian is too strict with you? "
Hsu Shengzhe did not wait for Li Dong to speak and said with a smile, "Lan Yu, don't provoke him. I've said it before. He's good at everything, but he's indecisive in this aspect. Women are like clothes … "
Before he could finish, Zhang Lanyu snorted coldly, "Clothes? Why don't you try taking off a few pieces? I want to see if you can still maintain your good looks without clothes! "
Hsu Shengzhe laughed dryly and said, "I wasn't talking about you …"
The two of them exchanged a few words, and Li Dong listened quietly. After a while, he said, "Old Xu is actually more affectionate than me. I'm not as good as him."
Zhang Lanyu was stunned. Hsu Shengzhe also said embarrassedly, "Is there a need to mock me?"
Li Dong smiled, leaned back in his chair, and said slowly, "I'm not mocking you. You're indeed doing better than me.
I don't like you in other areas, but I do admire you in this aspect.
At the very least, you're not letting yourself and others down.
It's not like your wife doesn't know that you've been playing around outside. But to put it bluntly, it's just the few of us, so don't be angry. So what if Bai Yue Qin finds out? She married you for fame and fortune.
She already knew about your personality and was mentally prepared for it.
As for you, whether you love her or not, at least you've satisfied all your wife's needs. All her vanity, mental, and material needs have been satisfied.
Therefore, Bai Yue Qin is living a happy life.
But towards Ji Lanxin, you don't dare to fall for her, so you've steeled your heart to not fall for her. I can't compare to you in terms of decisiveness … "
Hsu Shengzhe frowned slightly and said after a while, "I'm talking about you. Don't drag me into this."
"You men …"
Zhang Lanyu listened to their conversation and said with a smile, "It's said that women are complicated, but you men are actually even more complicated.
Just like you, Li Dong, do you think that Hsu Shengzhe is really good just because he's doing well?
Is it reasonable to play around with women?
Even if Bai Yue Qin did it for other things in the beginning, now that she has a family and a child, do you think Bai Yue Qin really doesn't mind it at all? Does she really not feel bitter?
No matter how much bitterness there is, she will bury it in her heart and not say it out loud.
As for Ji Lanxin, Hsu Shengzhe always felt that he would be letting her down or letting himself down if he got together with her.
But in reality?
Did Hsu Shengzhe really not like Ji Lanxin?
Since they liked each other, why did he have to worry about these things and let them miss each other? In the end, he would hurt both himself and others.
Wasn't it just one or two injuries? Bai Yue Qin was depressed, while Ji Lanxin felt bitter. Is Hsu Shengzhe happy alone?
Men, they have to suffer because of their pride … "
Hsu Shengzhe said angrily, "Zhang Lanyu, did I offend you? Can you guys not drag me into this? "
"Look, he's angry from embarrassment. Now that the truth has been exposed, he can't take it anymore and is about to explode." Zhang Lanyu laughed and did not provoke him anymore. She turned to look at Li Dong and said, "As for you, sometimes I feel that you have too many things to consider.
Of course, you have too many things that you can't let go of, and you lack a sense of security.
I don't know what you want, but I know that when a man lacks a sense of security, a woman will also lack a sense of security.
The women who are with you are actually living in fear.
I have a feeling that this man, when will he leave me?
Li Dong, what exactly is there that you can't let go of? At this point, what is there that makes you feel that you can't bear all of this?
If you love him, then hold on. If you don't love him, then let him go. It's meaningless to torture yourself.
Back then, when you rejected me, weren't you very straightforward?
Why, when it comes to others, you have tender feelings for the fairer sex?
Or is it that in your eyes, my charm, Zhang Lanyu, is so small that it's not enough to make you reluctant to leave? "
Li Dong said with a wry smile, "No, who dares to deny your charm, Miss Zhang? Don't you see that Hsu Shengzhe has always been coveting you, but he doesn't dare to say it? He is ashamed of his own inferiority. Forget it, it's meaningless for us to discuss these things here. You say that I lack a sense of security, maybe a little, but it will be gone soon. When you don't worry about some things, you will naturally not have this feeling of gain and loss. "
"Today is really strange!"
Hsu Shengzhe muttered, feeling a little speechless. He said, "Obviously, it's for leisure and business. How did you talk about this? You can talk about it, but you have to drag me into it. Let's not talk about this. How long is Lan Yu going to stay this time? "
"I'm not leaving."
Zhang Lanyu smiled and shook her head. She said, "I bought a house in Pingchuan. In the future, I'll settle down here. Being alone outside is ultimately leaving one's home. Only you know how miserable it is. Even if he doesn't love me, it's fine. My small courtyard is not far from the East Garden. In the future, I'll accompany him often. "
"Pfft!"
Li Dong almost choked to death. He said with a gloomy face, "Lan Yu, are you serious? There's no need to take revenge on me, right? "
Zhang Lanyu smiled like a flower. "Revenge? Why would you think that? I'm taking revenge on you just because we're neighbors? Don't overthink it. These few years, I haven't been able to calm down. I often look at you, and seeing you makes my heart as still as water. At that time, I should start my new life. Don't worry, I won't have any physical contact with you, and you don't need to take responsibility for me … "
Li Dong looked up at the sky speechlessly. Who the hell did I offend?
Zhang Lanyu, that crazy woman. She had been elevating herself for a while, and now she was doing it again!
Hsu Shengzhe was gloating, but he didn't expect Zhang Lanyu to say, "When you see that Li Dong's heart is as still as water, you can go to the Xu family. After all, we're neighbors. When all of you can no longer leave a mark in my heart, I'll be able to choose or reject men. Of course, Hsu Shengzhe shouldn't think too much about it … "
Hsu Shengzhe's face stiffened. What am I thinking?
I'm not thinking anything!
Hsu Shengzhe glanced at Li Dong, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
However, when Zhang Lanyu said this, the two of them felt a lot calmer.
When the few of them parted, Hsu Shengzhe waited for Zhang Lanyu to leave before saying in a low voice, "To be honest, this woman is probably the most affectionate I've ever met."
He didn't mention Li Dong, but Chen Rui.
Zhang Lanyu probably loved Chen Rui all along, and that had never changed.
Li Dong sighed. "Maybe, or maybe she's too naive. She's actually … "
Li Dong didn't say it out loud. Zhang Lanyu was actually a little similar to Yuan Xue.
It wasn't anything else, but the pursuit of love.
Sometimes, looking mature didn't mean that one's love view was mature.
Yuan Xue and Zhang Lanyu didn't look like naive people, but both of them had the same attitude towards love, naive and full of fantasy.
Just as Li Dong was thinking about this, Hsu Shengzhe smiled bitterly. "Say, we're two grown men. Isn't it inappropriate to talk about love? Let's not talk about these topics in the future. It'll only make things worse in the end. "
"That's true. We'll meet less in the future. My reputation has been ruined by you. Don't tell me you're the one who spread this saying that I love men and not women?" Li Dong looked at Hsu Shengzhe suspiciously.
Hsu Shengzhe said angrily, "Get lost. You're the one who would do such things!"
"…"
…
Leisurely days were obviously rare at this time.
After chatting with Hsu Shengzhe and Zhang Lanyu, Li Dong returned to his busy state.
Li Dong had to go to the US for the Weibo listing on the 25th.
When Li Dong was preparing to go to the US, Tencent had been listed for a few days, and the share prices had stabilized. On the 23rd of August, the day before Li Dong went to the US, Tencent's share prices had risen to 90 HKD and stopped rising.
Tencent's market value was 540 billion HKD. Based on the current exchange rate, the market value had reached 67.5 billion USD and was approaching the 70 billion USD mark.
In Feng Yu's previous life, Tencent's market value had exceeded 70 billion USD in 2012, which was 3 years later.
In this life, Tencent's market value had reached the level of 12 years earlier.
Tencent's market value was 3 years earlier. E-commerce, mobile internet …
To Hua Xia, all these things had reached the level of 3 years later in Feng Yu's previous life.
When he boarded the plane, Li Dong was also thinking that everything had happened almost three years ahead of schedule. Did that mean that the node of his rebirth had also been shortened by three years?
Maybe it will be shorter?
These thoughts flashed in Li Dong's mind, but Li Dong did not think too much about it.
The more one thinks, the more tired one is.
Zhang Lanyu was right. Li Dong had always felt insecure because of this.
Even though Feng Yu had gone to school once, and even though he had told himself that everything was just a dream, he still could not feel at ease.
Feng Yu had not been able to feel at ease with this uneasiness.
On the plane, Li Dong suddenly turned to his new assistant and asked. "Is the Jade Amber Mansion in the southern suburbs open for business?"
The new assistant was at a loss. Being stared at by Li Dong, he even had the urge to cry. He stammered, "General Manager Li, I … I don't know …"
Li Dong did not care. He touched his chin and said, "Is there really a Jade Amber Mansion? I have to check it later. "
After that, Li Dong no longer looked at his assistant. He turned to look at Wang Xin and said, "This time Weibo is listed. The next step is almost to develop step by step. In the beginning, I said that you would help me for a few years. If you have your own ideas, I can help you realize them. Now, what do you think? Do you want to stay on Weibo or start a business again? "
Wang Xin pondered for a moment. After a while, he said, "I want to stay! Not for the glory now. As General Manager Li said, even if I become dust, I want to be the most dazzling one! After experiencing everything Far away, I actually thought about starting a business again. But every time I think about it, I feel that even if I start a business again, I can't create the same legend as Far away. In such a legendary enterprise, even if it is only a small part, I think it will be much more dazzling than my success in starting a business again! "
Li Dong laughed heartily and said, "Isn't it all for the glory?"
"Yes, but the glory of Far away, not the glory of Wang Xin!"
"Hahaha, this is a little interesting. OK, then you will follow me all the way to glory!"
"…"
As they talked all the way, at noon on August 24th, Li Dong arrived in New York again.
On the last day before the listing, Weibo updated the prospectus for the last time.
The release range of Weibo was set at 43-45 US dollars.
That is to say, at the lowest, the release price of Weibo would be more than 43 US dollars, which was much higher than the previous upward range of 40 US dollars.
However, the outside world was not too surprised, because this time, the subscription amount of Weibo also exceeded many people's expectations.
After the listing of Tencent soared, Weibo subscription did not stop. Seeing the explosion of Tencent, many investment institutions increased subscription funds.
Before the subscription was stopped, the total subscription capital of Weibo reached 300 billion US dollars!
More than a hundred times the subscription amount, which is almost rare for a company listed on NASDAQ.
And the outside world unanimously judged that the rise on the first day of Weibo would not be too low.
Compared with Hong Kong stocks, Hong Kong stocks still have some limitations. NASDAQ is actually not worse than NYSE, and it is not the growth enterprise market in some people's eyes. NASDAQ also faces the global trading market.
This time, Tencent's first big rise, and investors around the world are eager to try. With these people pushing, Weibo's stock price will not be low.
