In the twelfth month, Far away became busier.
The twelfth month was an explosive period for the retail business. Many people would prepare for the New Year. Even the cold weather could not stop people's enthusiasm for shopping.
Far away had many companies that had just been brought in. Backstage remodeling, personnel changes, supply system changes …
A series of work was being done. In addition, the front-end business was busy. Almost all the executives were sent out to oversee the business.
…
The executives were extremely busy. The middle and lower levels were also very busy.
Of course, there was no lack of enthusiasm in the midst of the busyness.
As Dong Yu Group's structure was officially dismantled, it had begun to be integrated into other large groups.
Far away's internal subscription plan had also begun to circulate.
Although the official document had not been issued, according to reliable sources, it would be officially implemented after the annual meeting.
Ten yuan per share. Employees above level three had the right to subscribe. This made many people excited.
Far away's retail value was highly discussed. Some people felt that even with Li Dong's existence in the offline system, he might not be able to create many miracles.
Even with the online system and a high proportion of self-owned properties, it might not be able to increase the sales. It might even be a burden.
Of course, this was the opinion of a minority.
Most people felt that with Li Dong, in addition to the series of miracles Far away had done, Far away's retail was Far Away's main business, it would not be too bad.
Among Hua Xia's listed companies, the highest market value was oil, with a market value of more than 1.8 billion.
The second was ICBC, with a market value of more than 110 billion.
Far away's revenue exceeded ICBC. Of course, the profits were far behind.
Even so, Far away's revenue and fixed assets were there. In addition to the increasingly important e-commerce, the outside world felt that even if it was not as good as ICBC, Far Away would not be too far behind.
Li Dong was good at creating miracles. Investors trusted Li Dong.
Once it was listed, Far Away's retail market value, even if it could not exceed ICBC, should not be too far behind.
In other words, a market value of a trillion was what many people predicted.
So far away, even after the issuance of additional shares, the total share capital was only 44 billion yuan. It was not too far away from going public. Perhaps in a few months, the amount invested now would be the same amount, or even more.
Even the outside world was so convinced, let alone the employees who were far away.
Far away, in the eyes of the people, Li Dong was omnipotent. Not to mention the upper echelons, the middle and lower echelons trusted Li Dong almost blindly.
Because of this, when the news of the internal subscription was released, people from all over the country were asking when they could participate in the subscription.
What's the limit?
For the lower-level employees, this subscription might allow them to earn a year or even several years of salary for free. Naturally, they were very interested.
…
Jiangzhou University.
When Bai Su got out of the car, the few people who were chatting at the school gate couldn't help but look at her.
Meng Qiping, who was in the crowd, saw Bai Su walking over. He curled his lips and said, "You're using your official position for personal gain. That's clearly the Sector CEO's car. Why did you get out of it?"
Bai Su said with a smile on her face, "What? Are you jealous?"
"Why should I be jealous? It's just a Benz. You're talking like no one can afford it."
"Then you should buy one."
"Humph, I'm not buying it …"
"That's because you really can't afford it."
"…"
The two of them argued for a while, which made the others burst into laughter.
In the end, Cheng Nan ended the conversation. He asked, "Su, you didn't drive back by yourself?"
Bai Su shook her head and said with a smile, "This time, I came back partly for work and partly for personal gain. The main reason is to do some handover work with Boss Qi. I've made an appointment with Boss Qi to do the handover work tomorrow. I'm free today, so we have the chance to get together. If it were tomorrow, I'm afraid I wouldn't have time. "
They were talking about Far away. Although the others didn't work Far away, they were familiar with Far away.
Hearing Bai Su's words, Li Wan couldn't help but say, "That fatty said you took the car of the Regional CEO …"
Bai Su smiled and explained, "This time, I'm in charge of the handover work in North Hua District, and I'm in charge of contacting Mr. Qi. Coincidentally, my car broke down. Considering that it's official business, Mr. Zhang specially arranged his car to send us over."
"Oh …" Li Wan patted her chest and said with a sigh of relief, "You scared me. I thought you were promoted to the Far away Regional CEO."
Bai Su laughed and said, "It's not that easy. It's not like before. There's no hope in at least seven or eight years."
"That's not necessarily true."
Meng Qiping, who had just disagreed with her, curled his lips and said, "You think I don't know? It's only been a short time, but you've already become the Deputy CEO of North Hua District. I think it won't be long before you get promoted to General Manager. In another two or three years, it's not impossible for you to be the North Hua District CEO. "
Bai Su smiled and shook her head. Cheng Nan, on the other hand, said unhappily, "Can you not speak in an envious tone? Who asked you to not work hard? Now you know how to be envious!"
Meng Qiping was a little embarrassed and mumbled, "I worked hard, but that superior of mine is jealous of my outstanding talent …"
"Can you not be so shameless!"
Cheng Nan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at Bai Su and said, "This guy didn't pass the assessment not long ago. I'm embarrassed to say that he dropped from level 2 to level 1. I've never seen someone more unreliable than him. Far away, there's someone who can drop from a supervisor to the same treatment as an intern. Even in this situation, he still refuses to resign. I really have to give it to him. "
"Pfft …"
Hearing this, a few people beside them couldn't help but laugh.
Today was a rare day for Bai Su to come back from the North. In addition to the fact that the Spring Festival was approaching, many people were on vacation. Everyone decided to get together.
Previously, everyone had just arrived, so they hadn't heard about Meng Qiping's demotion.
Now that they heard it, everyone couldn't stop laughing.
Meng Qiping looked like he had no choice but to give up. He said nonchalantly, "Level 1 and level 2 aren't much different. It's just a matter of 200 yuan. If he drops, so be it …"
"Is it about the 200 yuan?"
Cheng Nan said impatiently, "We all entered Far away together. Susu is now level 7. Next year, she'll probably be promoted to level 8. "If everything goes well on my side, I'll also be promoted to level 6 next year. "But you, there weren't many management positions back then, and you were one level higher than me. Now, don't you feel ashamed? "Far away, you're almost the biggest joke now. I'm embarrassed to tell people that you're my husband."
Meng Qiping said gloomily, "What's there to be embarrassed about? Who dares to laugh at me? Whoever laughs at me, tell me. Next time they order food, I'll directly spit in their food … "
"Don't be disgusting!" Cheng Nan rolled his eyes.
Bai Su also just found out about this. She couldn't help but laugh. "Fatty, you're the only one. If it were me, I'd quit now and focus on running the restaurant."
Meng Qiping said with a disdainful expression, "What do you know?
If I quit, will I still be able to move freely Far away?
"This is a resource, don't you know? You don't know how to use resources at all.
"I go to Nannan's place every day. This silly woman thinks I'm going to visit her. We're already an old married couple, why would I visit her?
"A few days ago, I chatted with Technician Zhang and the others for a long time and settled them with one meal. Later on, I'm going to log into the online food ordering platform.
"I don't need to spend a single cent. They said that they'll help me set up the website after work.
"Usually, I just need to find someone to keep an eye on it. In the future, if they're not busy, they can also help me with the maintenance work.
"Look, I don't need to spend money. I can get some of the top experts in the country to set up an online food ordering platform for me. Can other people do it?
"If these people really go out and do private work for others, which trip won't cost tens of thousands?
This is a resource. If I quit, how am I going to hit on them? "
As soon as this was said, Bai Su was stunned. Cheng Nan could not help but say, "When did this happen? Why didn't I know about it?"
"Why would I tell you women about men's matters?" Meng Qiping said proudly, "There are many things you don't know."
Cheng Nan looked at him with a dangerous gaze and said, "So, you're saying that there are many things you're hiding from me?"
When Meng Qiping saw this, he hurriedly said, "No, there's no such thing. Why would I hide things from you …"
The people around them could not help but laugh again. At this time, another person walked over from not far away.
Seeing that everyone was here, Fang Qingfei smiled and said, "You're all here. The students just had an exam. I'm the invigilator. I'm late."
"Not late, not late. Teacher Fang is getting more and more beautiful. When are you going to invite us to your wedding?" Meng Qiping's eagerness caused Fang Qingfei to laugh and say, "Don't flatter me. Be careful that Cheng Nan goes back and teaches you a lesson."
"How is that possible, Nannan, don't you think so?"
Cheng Nan could not be bothered with him. She looked at Fang Qingfei and said with a smile, "Sister Feifei, I heard that you got the title of associate professor?"
The smile on Fang Qingfei's face widened. She nodded and said, "I'm riding on your coattails. There are many talents in your batch. The school probably considered the cooperation with Far away, so they gave me priority during the evaluation. "Otherwise, with my qualifications, I'd have to wait at least a few years before I can get my doctorate."
"Congratulations, Sister Feifei!"
Everyone hurriedly congratulated her and walked out together.
They did not choose any other place for the gathering. It was Meng Qiping's small restaurant.
Although it was said to be small, it was actually one of the bigger restaurants around Jiangzhou University.
Although Meng Qiping did not make any progress in Far away over the past few years, his restaurant business was not bad. Later on, he took a loan from Cheng Nan. Together with his own savings, he bought the shop along the street and rented two storefronts. The place was no smaller than the Eastern Fishing Village.
As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, the waiters hurriedly greeted them. The boss kept calling them 'boss'.
Meng Qiping's satisfied look made Cheng Nan feel a little helpless.
Her roommate, Li Wan, saw her sigh and could not help but laugh. "Nannan, are you still worried about your demotion? Fatty was quite impressive. He managed to open such a big restaurant just like that. He only graduated not long ago. If he wants to open this restaurant, it would cost at least a million. "
Fang Qingfei raised her eyebrows slightly. "A million? I heard that Meng Qiping bought this shop. The house alone is worth at least a million, right? "
Cheng Nan smiled. "He did buy it, but he also owed a lot of loans. Plus, he also owes a loan for his house. He's in debt now. "But he just has to put his mind on the restaurant. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so nervous right now. If he was like Susu, he wouldn't be in this situation … "
As soon as she said that, some people in the crowd felt that she was pretending. Cheng Nan, however, did not think so. She shook her head. "Ask Susu if you don't believe me. If he had been obedient in Far away, he would be at least at Level 7, if not Level 8. Moreover, Level 7 in the early stages is much more valuable than now. The rewards at that time would be more. Susu's net worth is probably close to ten million now … "
"Ten million?"
"F * ck, it can't be!"
"…"
Although this group of students was familiar with Bai Su and understood Far away, Bai Su's position in Far away's system was not too high.
Of course, Bai Su had been Li Dong's secretary before. That was a high position. Now that she had been transferred to the North, everyone felt that her position was ordinary.
She was not even a regional CEO or a deputy CEO. She was just a deputy CEO in the district administration department. She had only graduated two years ago and already had a net worth of ten million?
Many of them had entered the industry after graduating. Until now, many of them had a monthly salary of less than five thousand.
But her former classmate had actually made so much money?
Looking at everyone's shocked expression, Bai Su glared at Cheng Nan and said with a smile, "Don't listen to Nannan's nonsense. It's not that much."
Cheng Nan just thought of Meng Qiping. Meng Qiping had a good relationship with Li Dong. If he really worked hard, his position might even be higher than Bai Su's.
Cheng Nan knew the newly appointed chairman of the board of supervisors, Wang Jie. He was Li Dong's high school classmate.
According to rank, the chairman of the board of supervisors and the chairman of the board of directors were equal. Of course, the actual power was not comparable.
But even so, Wang Jie was still a top executive in the group.
If Meng Qiping really worked hard, he might not be as good as Wang Jie, but at least he wouldn't be too far behind.
Other classmates envied Meng Qiping for opening such a big restaurant at such a young age. He even bought a residential house and a storefront. Little did they know that in Cheng Nan's eyes, her husband was the biggest fool in the world!
Was earning a million in two years that great?
Just look at Bai Su. She owned 10,000 Tencent shares and 10,000 Weibo shares.
Now, Tencent's share price had exceeded HK $100. In other words, Tencent's market value had exceeded HK $600 billion.
And the Tencent shares in Bai Su's hands were worth more than HK $1 million. That's close to 1 million RMB.
And Weibo's shares were even more valuable!
When Weibo was just listed, the share price closed at 88 USD. In the past few months, Weibo continued to expand and covered a wider range. A few days ago, the share price had exceeded 100 USD.
This was USD. Weibo's share price was not a lot, and not many people had gotten Weibo's shares. But Bai Su was Li Dong's secretary at that time, and she also got 10,000 shares.
Bai Su had earned a lot from these 10,000 shares. It was worth close to 7 million RMB.
Coupled with Bai Su's salary, bonuses, etc., Cheng Nan was not lying.
At this moment, Bai Su was indeed a millionaire.
But seeing Bai Su staring at her, Cheng Nan knew that she had said too much. It was not appropriate to talk about this during a class gathering.
Bai Su did not reply, so Cheng Nan immediately laughed and said, "I'm just joking. But among all of us, besides Li Dong, you're the richest. You have to treat us today." Bai Su did not reply.
Bai Su laughed and said, "Are you stingy or not? This is your restaurant, and you want me to treat you? Aren't you embarrassed? "
"Of course I am. Speaking of which, Far away, the higher the level, the stingier they are. I don't know where this trend came from."
Cheng Nan joked. Far away, this was also a joke.
Far away, there were many rich people, especially after Tencent and Weibo got listed.
But Far away, the rich people seemed to be quite stingy.
Bai Su laughed. "How did it come about? It's all because of the roots. Far away, that old classmate of ours is not stingy to outsiders.
But to be honest, he has to admire himself.
I've worked by his side for so long, and I know exactly how much he spends in a year.
Other than the fixed assets of his house and car, his personal expenses are less than 100,000 a year.
Of course, that doesn't include things like clothes, which are bought by CEO Shen.
Anyway, he doesn't spend much. If he takes the lead, won't others follow suit? "
Hearing this, even Fang Qingfei found it a little unbelievable. "Really?"
100,000 RMB was a big number for ordinary people.
But for Li Dong, in the imagination of Fang Qingfei and the others, a meal for these people would probably cost that much.
Bai Su nodded. "Really. Of course, social engagements and the like don't count. In fact, he doesn't have many social engagements. Even if he does, it's usually someone else's treat.
Usually, he eats in the company's cafeteria. Outside, unless it's absolutely necessary, he can just find a small restaurant.
Everyone's success doesn't come easily. It's not just General Manager Li, it's the same for some of the big entrepreneurs I've met.
Some of the billion-dollar entrepreneurs live frugally.
They drive luxury cars and stay in luxurious hotels. These are all true, but it's all work needs.
In private, these people don't go to high-end restaurants every day. They eat box lunches and eat in the cafeteria. That's the most common time.
They don't go for high-end clothes either. Many of them wear cheap clothes, even General Manager Li.
If it wasn't for CEO Shen, he wouldn't care about these things. "
Bai Su's words subverted many people.
Bai Su glanced at them and didn't say anything else. These people only knew that Li Dong had succeeded and lived a glorious life. But how could success be so simple?
They worked all year round. When they were busy, they worked overtime until late at night.
As the boss, Li Dong was slightly better off. People like Yuan Chengdao and Sun Tao often stayed overnight in the company.
Outsiders didn't know that they lived such a life. Yuan Chengdao said that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to find a girlfriend. That wasn't a lie.
If Sun Tao hadn't gone to study for an EMBA, he probably wouldn't have gotten married so soon.
Far away, as a rising giant, was busier and more tired than the executives of other companies.
Of course, there would be rewards if there was effort. This was also the reason why there were more and more rich people Far away.
Everyone chatted. Most of the topics were still focused on Far away and Li Dong.
During the meal, the others chatted a lot. Bai Su didn't say much.
In the afternoon, Bai Su received a call. There was a small meeting in Hua Bei District, so she left early.
After she left, the others also dispersed.
After everyone left, Cheng Nan couldn't help but say, "Su Su is getting more and more imposing."
Meng Qiping curled his lips and said, "You women, don't always chase after those unrealistic things.
How can I not know what Bai Su is thinking?
She should find someone to marry. It's much better than now.
You think she's living a comfortable life? That's not true. At least not as comfortable as me.
I know what kind of person Brother Dong is. Bai Su also knows. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left Pingchuan to go to the north.
The more imposing she is now, the more uncomfortable she is. There's nothing to be envious of. "
Cheng Nan couldn't help but look at him. Meng Qiping said indifferently, "Why are you looking at me? Great wisdom may seem slow-witted.
I'm living a good life now. Don't think about it all day.
Do you really think I can be like them, a boss or a CEO if I work hard?
Don't fight for it if you're not cut out for it. It's very stressful.
It's fine now that Brother Dong is in the company. Once he's gone, and you don't have the ability, you'll be the first target.
I'm living a good life now. Look, which level 1 employee has a better life than me?
Everyone knows my relationship with Brother Dong. Otherwise, do you think Technician Zhang and the others would dare to work for me?
Everyone turns a blind eye to it. It's just a small matter. Take care of me a little.
I'm not fighting for power in the company. I'm just earning a little money. Even if Boss Yuan finds out, it's fine. Maybe he'll take care of me.
It doesn't hurt the company's interests, and I can talk to Brother Dong. The lower the rank, the better.
Look at Wang Jie. Now Boss Yuan and the others see him as a big enemy. What's the use of looking good?
So, don't think that I can do anything if I work hard. Why should I suffer for no reason? "
At first, Cheng Nan thought what her husband said made sense. But in the end, she couldn't help but scold, "In the end, it's all because you're lazy!"
"You're too narrow-minded!"
Meng Qiping looked disdainful. He turned around and left.
Of course, he was also afraid that his wife would teach him a lesson in front of others. That would be so embarrassing.
