On September 14, Hu Xiaorui took her people to Hong Kong.
This time, Hu Xiaorui took Li Dong's private plane to Hong Kong.
It had nothing to do with personal friendship. It was mainly to show an attitude. Hu Xiaorui, or East Star, also represented Li Dong.
The news that East Star wanted to buy TVB was also confirmed this time.
In Hua Xia, some people said that they didn't know about TVB, and some said that they didn't know about the Shao enterprise.
But if you hadn't seen the Shao enterprise's movies or the TV series made by TVB, and Li Dong didn't know about children, those over 20 years old who hadn't seen it were either isolated from the world or blind and deaf.
TVB and the Shao enterprise were actually the epitome of an era.
Today, the former entertainment empire, the media empire, was beginning to decline.
The head of the Shao enterprise was over a hundred years old. For the sake of the family and the future, he chose to let go of TVB.
This was also the testimony of the oldest generation of entrepreneurs retiring from the stage of history.
Few people of the same generation as Sixth Uncle could be seen nowadays.
Next, it was Old Li's generation.
In fact, this generation began to gradually withdraw from the stage.
Nowadays, the business world was changing rapidly. The middle-aged generation over 40 years old had not completely risen up, but the younger generation had already caught up.
In recent years, in addition to Li Dong, there were many young people who had risen up.
Hsu Shengzhe was one of them. Zhuang Fan, the successor of the Zhuang enterprise in the capital, also began to move to the front stage.
In addition, there were Hu Xiaorui, Ji Lanxin, Shen Hang, Yang Huiyan, the daughter of Old Liu of the Association, and Wahaha Zhong Qinghou's daughter …
These people all began to move to the front stage. Some took over, and some started their own businesses.
It seemed that the middle-aged generation over 40 years old didn't have a chance to rise up in the big waves.
This generation of middle-aged entrepreneurs could be said to be the most competitive and the most unknown generation.
In the first decades, they hadn't risen up yet because the older generation of entrepreneurs suppressed them.
When they began to rise, the young people behind them caught up with them at an unimaginable speed and stole their halos again.
This scene caused many people to sigh endlessly.
…
Just as East Star was about to acquire TVB, Ma Yun called Li Dong.
When the call connected, Ma Yun didn't talk about anything else. He just smiled and said, "Putting everything else aside, the acquisition of TVB has helped me realize my dream. When I was young, I yearned for Wuxia novels. I've watched almost all of TVB's wuxia dramas, and I've watched Mr. Zha's wuxia novels and movies over and over again. Although there have been many remakes in the mainland over the years, the version produced by the Shao enterprise and TVB impressed me … "
Ma Yun started talking about his martial arts dream, and Li Dong almost didn't have a chance to interrupt.
Everyone in the industry knew that Old Ma had a martial arts dream.
Li Dong even teased him. This guy had always compared himself to the Eastern Heretic. Even his gathering was called the West Lake Sword Conference. It could be seen that what Ma Yun said was not a lie.
But Li Dong couldn't help interrupting after he spoke for a while, "What do you want to say after saying so much?"
Ma Yun said with a smile, "When I read novels and watched TV, what I yearned for most was the master's sword conference!
To show off to the world and win the title of the best in the world!
The West Lake Sword Conference has been suspended for several years.
The reason why it was suspended was that I felt that I was the best in the IT industry. There was no match for me, so there was no need for the sword conference!
But now, I still want to discuss and debate it.
Li Dong, this year, the West Lake Sword Conference will be held again. Do you dare to come? "
Li Dong frowned and said after a long while, "What do you want to discuss? Prove what? Who is the best in the world? At this point, do we still need to discuss and debate? "
Ma Yun said bluntly, "Do you mean Weibo and Tencent? What does the market value represent? It doesn't represent anything! Besides, it's not just to become the best in the world. I've been a little confused recently. I want to gather with everyone and debate it. Let's see if we can create some sparks. How about it? Are you coming? "
Li Dong exhaled and said with a smile, "I'm not going. You come! Why should we go to West Lake? Come to Mount Huang. It's my treat! "
"I'm not going. I was the one who suggested it first. Where are you going …"
"Then I won't go to West Lake either. How about this? The West Lake Sword Conference is boring. If we want to go, let's go to Mount Hua! Don't you like martial arts? The Sword Conference at Mount Hua is the real fight for supremacy in the martial arts world. How about it? Let's go together and relax. "
Ma Yun thought for a moment and asked, "What about the time?"
"I don't have time in September. My daughter isn't a month old in October. If we want to gather, it'll have to be after October 8th."
"Coincidentally, National Day is over. There won't be many people then. Let's set it for October 10th. I'll inform the others. I'll give you a call when it's confirmed."
"Alright!"
"…"
Li Dong agreed readily and quickly confirmed the time and place with Ma Yun.
After hanging up, Li Dong thought for a moment and made a call.
Not long after, Yuan Chengdao and Liu Hong came together.
Li Dong invited them to sit down and said, "Ma Yun wants to restart the Sword Conference at West Lake. I didn't agree and chose to go to Mount Hua. What do you think he means by holding an IT Summit at this time? "
Upon hearing that Ma Yun wanted to restart the Sword Conference at West Lake, Liu Hong could not help but say, "In 2000, the first Sword Conference at West Lake was held.
The theme that year was the new millennium, the new economy, the new cyberman!
"At that time, Zhang Chaoyang of Sohu, Wang Zhidong of Sina, Ding Lei of NetEase, Ma Yun of Ali … and Mr. Jin Yong attended the conference at the same time. It was the first summit of the IT industry in Hua Xia.
"In 2001, the theme became 'Management, Profitability, Growth'. This also represented the development path of Hua Xia's IT industry. At that time, it was seeking a breakthrough.
"Until 2005, the Sword Conference at West Lake reached a peak.
The former president of the United States went personally. Ma Yun also defeated eBay at that time and became the overlord of Hua Xia's e-commerce field.
The theme that year was — The World!
"Since then, the Sword Conference at West Lake has not been held again.
"Many people know that because Ma Yun felt that it was meaningless. Hua Xia's IT industry, just like the theme of the last episode, was the best in the world!
"Ali felt that at that time, Ali was already the best in the world. There was not much meaning in another gathering or proving the Dao.
"Now, Ali is restarting the Sword Conference at West Lake. In my opinion, there are only two reasons.
"First, it proves that Ali still has the determination and strength to fight for hegemony.
"Second, Ali is at a loss, or rather, Ma Yun is at a loss. He wants to find a breakthrough point to oppress himself and Ali!"
Yuan Chengdao waited for him to finish and thought for a moment before saying, "I don't think that's necessarily the case. It could also be a compromise, or he wants to take the opportunity to divide the benefits. "We don't know the specifics for the time being. "However, General Manager Li should have chosen to hold the conference in Jiangbei …"
Li Dong smiled and said, "I said it, but Old Ma didn't agree no matter what. In the end, he compromised and chose to go to Mount Hua.
"Forget it, I won't guess what he wants to do.
"Since he wants to fight and compete, I'll satisfy him.
"I'll go take a look on October 10th.
"The Sword Conference at Mount Hua, who else but me can do it!
"At this time, what's the point of fighting for the title of number one in the world?
"It's a pity that the time isn't right. Otherwise, we can directly end Ali before October 10th. I'll see if Ma Yun has the face to participate in the Sword Conference!"
Liu Hong could not help but laugh and said, "I'm afraid he'll go too. Just like this time, I think the other General Manager Ma will also participate."
Li Dong nodded and said, "That's true. Ma Huateng will probably go. "Not only them, but many others will also go. "It's said that it's the Sword Conference on Mount Hua, where heroes fight for hegemony. Believe it or not, when the time comes, it'll be the six major sects besieging Light Summit. "Far away, or should I say, I, Li Dong, will be the Ming Cult!"
When he said that, the two's expressions changed slightly. Yuan Chengdao said in a deep voice, "General Manager Li, then why don't we not go …"
Li Dong said indifferently, "There's nothing to worry about. It's just a battle of words. Can they kill me with words?
"This time, maybe it's also a coercion, maybe they want to force me to give in.
"I'm afraid there will be threats and temptations.
"If I don't agree, the six major sects will probably join forces.
"I just want to see if the six major sects' camp is solid and who will choose their camp. I also want to see if the entire world will come to besiege me, Li Dong!
"Of course, we can't lose our momentum. Get ready and follow me when the time comes.
"Also, the plan will proceed as usual.
"Especially the November 11th Plan. We'll start contacting the third party and make arrangements.
"On October 10th, when we go to the meeting, we'll start a large-scale publicity campaign.
"One month is just right. A month later, the news will report that after the Sword Conference on Mount Hua, Ali died from his injuries.
"This is also in line with the mood. It's beautiful just thinking about it.
"What do you think?"
Seeing that Li Dong had said everything he needed to say, what else could Yuan Chengdao and the others say?
Yuan Chengdao thought about it and nodded. "Then let's get ready and meet the six major sects."
Liu Hong was speechless when he saw how funny the two of them were.
At that moment, Li Dong stopped talking about it. He looked at Liu Hong and said, "How's the preparation for the financing?"
Liu Hong immediately said with a serious expression, "It's still in preparation. After all, it's not a small amount. If it's 30 billion, everything will be fine with Far Away's retail status. 300 billion is already more than the total assets of Far Away's retail. "If we want the financing to succeed, we can't be careless in the early stages. We have to prepare well before we can officially proceed."
"How long will it take?"
"A month …"
Li Dong frowned. "A month? That long? "
Yuan Chengdao spoke up for him. "General Manager Li, no financing can be officially carried out overnight. It does take time to arrange. If we go online in a hurry without sufficient preparation, there's a high chance of failure with so much funding. "
Li Dong took a deep breath and thought for a while before saying, "Alright, I'll give you time, but a month is too long. It's just right. We've agreed to go to the meeting on the 10th of October. Try to pick that time. "This year is destined to belong to Far Away. It belongs to us! "There wasn't anything eye-catching in October. Now, after the 60th anniversary celebration, it belongs to Far Away!"
Yuan Chengdao thought about it and shook his head helplessly.
"Far Away seems to belong to this year."
"From the start of the Gome fight in January until now, there hasn't been a day of rest."
"There wasn't anything important to do in October. Now, there's the Sword Tournament on Mount Hua and the start of the 300 billion financing plan …"
"In November, Far Away is preparing to defeat Taobao once again. They're going to destroy Taobao from within. It's destined to attract a lot of attention."
"Now, should I consider what plan I should use in December to continue this attention?"
"If I do something in December, 2009 will really be the 2009 of Far Away, Li Dong's 2009."
…
Li Dong was prepared to create a sensation and attract attention.
As for Ma Yun, he began to contact people. He made calls one by one. Almost none of those who received the call refused.
October 10th, Sword Tournament on Mount Hua!
No, October 10th, they should be attacking Guangming Peak.
When Li Yanhong received the call, she even joked, "Why don't we just set it at Kunlun Mountain? It'll be more targeted."
When Ma Yun heard that, he snapped, "What a petty person! Also, even so, Baidu isn't considered one of the Six Sects! "
Why not? Of course, it's because Baidu is taking advantage of Far Away. It's more likely to be in the Far Away camp.
Li Yanhong chuckled. "It's business. There's no need to go against profits. Of course, when that time comes, everything will be unknown. "
Ma Yun understood what he meant but did not care. It was normal for Baidu to want to be an opportunist.
Whichever side was beneficial to them, or rather, whichever side was beneficial to Baidu, that was his choice.
In fact, it was the same for the others.
In reality, Ma Yun had never counted on them, nor did he expect that this gathering would really be able to do anything to Li Dong.
This time, it was mainly the uneasiness in his heart that made Ma Yun decide to meet with everyone, talk, and debate.
Sometimes, when there were more people and more discussions, many things would become clear.
None of them were weaklings. Just a casual remark from these people could give him some inspiration.
This was also the reason why these people flocked like ducks to participate in all kinds of conferences.
Networking, promoting the company, and having a clash of ideas …
All these goals were there!
…
As more people received the news, some secrets were no longer secrets.
In fact, Ma Yun and Li Dong did not treat this as a secret.
Soon, news spread from the outside world.
On the 10th of October, the business world's Mount Hua Sword Meet began.
As for what was discussed, no one knew and they did not care. Ordinary people only cared about who would go and what they would do to attract attention. That was what everyone cared about.
Far Away defeated Tencent and cooperated with Baidu. At this moment, without guessing, these people knew that the most eye-catching thing this time was the battle of e-commerce platforms.
For a time, even though there was still some time before the summit, the summit had already become the hot topic of discussion.
…
As for one of the main characters, Li Dong, he did not think about October.
He would deal with October in October. At this moment, he was more concerned about his daughter. It was better to play with her at home. There was no point in caring about those discussions.
