After the annual meeting, the atmosphere Far away's enthusiasm did not cool down.
On February 22nd, Far away began its internal subscription plan.
As soon as the subscription plan was launched, all the employees who met the requirements almost immediately subscribed to the limit that they could reach.
The target of 2.8 billion shares, the previous small shareholders received a quota of 800 million shares.
The remaining 2 billion shares were subscribed to by the internal employees.
Ten yuan per share, 20 billion shares.
It was hard to imagine such a subscription amount. In just three days, Far away completed the subscription.
There was no coercion, and there was no need for coercion.
No one would think that Far away's retail listing would fail, and they would not think that the listing would not bring them profits.
If it was a few years ago, perhaps some people would be worried and afraid.
But as Far away went step by step, no one would think that Li Dong would fail. Li Dong's success had become a common concept for everyone.
…
In just three days, the 2.8 billion share subscription task was completed.
Far away's retail sales increased another 28 billion in liquidity.
When some entrepreneurs heard the news, they felt inexplicable.
Such a company was sometimes really scary.
They trusted the company without any doubt, and they trusted Li Dong blindly. Perhaps such a company was still full of shortcomings, but no matter how many shortcomings there were, as long as that person was still there, such shortcomings were not a concern.
On February 25th, the subscription task was completed. Far away announced a new personnel change plan.
Far away's president, Yuan Chengdao, took over the position of the group's CEO.
Sun Tao became the executive vice president.
Chen Lang became the group's senior vice president.
Wang Yue became the group's senior vice president.
Liu Hongmei became the group's senior vice president.
The five vice presidents formed the new Faraway Group's decision-making system.
Far away's group personnel also changed. Qi Yunna officially took over the retail group.
On the eve of the listing, Chen Lang was deprived of his position as the retail chairman. This was unacceptable to many people. However, Chen Lang became the senior vice president and still handled the retail business. Chen Lang was mainly responsible for the listing. In this way, this dissatisfaction would completely disappear.
Apart from Qi Yunna taking over the position of the chairman of the retail group, the original president of the retail group remained unchanged. Tan Haiying from e-commerce took over the position of the executive president of the retail group.
As for Taobao, Lu Zhaoxi was appointed as the Deputy General Manager of the retail group and was in charge of the e-commerce business.
There were also some changes at the top of the retail group.
The former General Manager of Shanghai Retail, Chen Ying, became the General Manager of Eastern Retail in Eastern China. The former Deputy General Manager of Northern China Administration, Bai Su, became the General Manager of Beijing Retail. The former General Manager of Gan Province, Chen Ke, was transferred to the Holding Group as the Deputy General Manager of the Administration Department …
The series of personnel changes was dazzling.
Among them, the most eye-catching was Qi Yunna.
This woman, who had just turned 36 this year, had a bit of fame in the outside world, but this was the first time she had caught the attention of the world.
Far away Retail was now the second largest retail group in the world, second only to Wal-Mart.
It took Qi Yunna six years to take charge of such a group.
Six years ago, this woman was a salesperson in a department store!
She was different from Sun Tao. Sun Tao had previously been the Deputy General Manager of Carrefour.
She was different from Wang Yue, who had previously been the General Manager of another large supermarket.
She was also different from Yuan Chengdao. Before Yuan Chengdao came to Far away, he had held high positions in many well-known companies.
Others like Chen Lang and Kong Xiangyu, without exception, all of their resumes were very rich.
Even Liu Hongmei, before Far away, had been the financial manager of a large state-owned factory.
Only Qi Yunna, she was the real example of rising from the bottom.
From the lowest salesperson to the head of the world's second largest retail group, such a resume could be called legendary.
As for the other legendary Wang Jie, he did not have a real position in the board of supervisors. With Qi Yunna's cover, not many people talked about it.
…
After the subscription ended and the personnel changes were completed, Far away Retail began its official listing journey.
On February 27th, Far Away submitted various materials and prospectuses to the CSRC.
The listing entered the final stage of the review.
At this time, Li Dong did not stay in the company, nor did he stay at home to take care of the children, nor did he visit Qin Yuhan.
On the last day of February, on the 28th, Li Dong treated.
Li Dong rarely treated. It was not that he was stingy, but that there were not many people who could make Li Dong treat.
Especially now, there were not many people who were worthy of Li Dong treating.
…
In a restaurant that was not big but had a very elegant environment.
Li Dong arrived one step ahead.
When the door opened, Li Dong took the initiative to stand up and pull out a chair. He smiled and said, "Boss Hu, please sit."
A few years ago, although Hu Wanlin did not wear heavy makeup, she still had a lot of worldly aura. Li Dong did not like it.
Now, Hu Wanlin had washed away all the glamour and looked more simple.
In 2008, Hu Wanlin and Li Dong reached an agreement to expose themselves and drag Chen Rui and the others down with them.
In the end, with Li Dong and Hsu Shengzhe's help, Hu Wanlin was sentenced to two years in prison.
Later on, because of her good performance and the fact that there were people taking care of her, Hu Wanlin's sentence was reduced by six months and she was just released yesterday.
In a year and a half, Hu Wanlin had changed a lot, at least in Li Dong's eyes.
But at the same time, in Hu Wanlin's eyes, Li Dong had changed even more.
She met Li Dong early. In 2005, the two met for the first time in Beijing.
At that time, Li Dong was still thinking of ways to buy Baidu's original shares.
And they met through Hu Wanlin's distant relative, Li Dong, and they did not have much contact.
The second time they met was a very unpleasant one.
Wang Jia's father owed Hu Wanlin quite a lot of money. At that time, Li Dong stood up for Wang Jia and the two of them broke down.
At that time, Hu Wanlin's only thought was that this young man was very domineering and arrogant.
He thought that he was the most powerful person in the world just because he had some money.
At that time, Hu Wanlin did not think that the two of them would meet in this way, nor did she think that they could sit at the same table and eat peacefully.
Of course, she also did not think that this young man, whom she thought was ignorant, would have achievements that exceeded everyone's imagination.
Even in prison, because there were people taking care of her, Hu Wanlin did not stop receiving news from the outside world.
When she entered in 2008, Li Dong had to take risks in order to deal with Chen Rui, Han Yu, and the others. He even had the idea that both sides would suffer, and put on a posture of fighting to the death to force them to retreat.
In prison, Hu Wanlin was still thinking about whether Li Dong would be taken revenge on and whether he would be dealt with.
Although Li Dong was strong at that time, he wasn't so strong that he was invincible.
Sometimes, Hu Wanlin suspected that Li Dong, who had offended so many people, might be swallowed up before she got out of prison. He might end up worse than her.
But what Hu Wanlin did not expect was that Li Dong became stronger the more he fought.
Ever since he dealt with Chen Rui, Han Yu, and the others, Li Dong could be said to have skyrocketed. Every time she heard news about Li Dong, Hu Wanlin could not believe it.
Swallowed up Gome, killed Tencent, went public on Weibo, swallowed up Taobao, created the world's second largest retail company, and even became the world's top IT company …
Every time she saw news about Li Dong, Hu Wanlin would be in a trance.
While in a trance, Hu Wanlin also laughed at herself. Today, Li Dong had probably forgotten about her.
An old woman in prison was indeed not worthy of Li Dong's attention.
She and Li Dong did not have feelings for each other. Both of them worked together for the benefit of each other from the beginning.
But Hu Wanlin did not expect that the second day after she got out of prison, she would receive a call from Li Dong, inviting her to dinner.
This meant that Li Dong still remembered this. Otherwise, he would not have known that she was out of prison.
A busy man like Li Dong actually remembered a small person like her. She had to admit that this phone call made Hu Wanlin feel a lot.
In the private room.
Hu Wanlin was in a trance until Li Dong said with a smile, "Director Hu, you should have seen enough by now, right?"
Hu Wanlin instantly came back to her senses and realized that she had been staring at Li Dong. Her face blushed, but she quickly recovered and teased, "General Manager Li's charm is getting stronger and stronger. I can't help but fall in love with him."
Li Dong laughed and asked Hu Wanlin to sit down. Then, he returned to his seat and said with a smile, "I accept your compliment. I haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to be in a good state of mind. Last time we met, you said that the next time we meet would be in a free place. So I haven't seen you for the past year. Do you mind? "
Hu Wanlin chuckled, "I don't mind. I still have to thank you for not seeing me. Otherwise, wouldn't it ruin my image if you saw me in such a sorry state?"
Li Dong laughed and waited for the waiter to serve the dishes. Then, he raised his glass and said, "Let's have a drink first. This meal can be considered as a welcome dinner. Originally, I was going to treat you yesterday, but after thinking about it, I decided to reserve a day for you to tidy up. Now, it seems that I was thinking too much. I originally thought that you must be sallow and emaciated, or much older and unsightly. Now that I look at you again, you look more charming than two years ago. "
Hu Wanlin's charming eyes were like ripples. She smiled and said, "Does General Manager Li really think so?"
"Hahaha, don't flirt with me. I'm married and have children now. I won't be tempted."
Li Dong laughed heartily. He raised his glass again and said, "When old friends meet, don't be so polite with General Manager Li, General Manager Li. Just call me by my name. It's the same for me.
Didn't you say it before?
Are we considered friends?
I said we are friends. Since we are friends, let's be straightforward.
Speaking of which, we don't get to know each other without fighting.
All these years, you didn't hurt me, but you helped me many times. Back then, you helped me deal with the Feng Family and later the Qi Family.
Although you have your own motives, it's a fact that you helped me.
Later, you also contributed a lot to dealing with Han Yu and the others.
Speaking of which, I was impulsive and willful back then. Although you were a loan shark, you gave me real money. I didn't pay a single cent of interest. Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem appropriate.
However, I won't talk about the past. You don't have to do these things now. It's not bad … "
Li Dong nagged for a while. Hu Wanlin didn't refute him. She raised her glass and clinked glasses with him.
The two of them ate and chatted. The atmosphere was quite good.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Li Dong said, "Previously, I had people operate the Guanghe Group. However, in the past two years, I had more things to do and didn't manage it much. Compared to before, it can only be said that there was no regression, nor was there any improvement. When I'm free later, I'll get someone to hand it over to you … "
However, Hu Wanlin smiled and said, "There's no need."
Seeing Li Dong looking at her, Hu Wanlin stroked the ends of her hair and chuckled. "In the past, I was wholeheartedly thinking about climbing to riches so that I could stand out.
However, in the past two years, sometimes when I think back, I feel that everything wasn't worth it.
So what if I have money?
How much I gain is how much I lose.
After I went to prison, my parents didn't come to see me because they felt that it was embarrassing. In fact, I also felt that I was embarrassing in the past.
After being in prison for so long, other than you who came to see me, the only person who came to see me was my distant niece.
Now, I've gotten over it. Money and power are all fleeting clouds.
So what if I take over the Guanghe Group now?
Continue to struggle in the vanity fair?
Continue to bow and scrape in front of the rich and powerful?
Let those old men ride on me and flaunt their power? "
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Li Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Stop, let's not talk about these things. So, you don't want to continue the Guanghe Group?"
Hu Wanlin smiled and nodded. "Not anymore. Besides, I don't have the mood for it now."
"Then how about this …" Li Dong pondered for a moment and said, "Guanghe Group is quite famous in Jiangbei in the area of green design.
Longhua is expanding rapidly now. Hsu Shengzhe has thought about expanding the industry and is also interested in Guanghe Group.
I was thinking of waiting for you to take over, so I ignored him.
I'll ask him later. If Longhua is interested, then I'll sell Guanghe Group.
If Longhua isn't interested, then I'll help you take another look.
Fame and fortune are fleeting clouds, but without money and status, you won't be able to live a happy life.
When I'm done, I'll transfer the money to your card. "
Hu Wanlin smiled again. "Then I won't refuse. You, Big Boss Li, don't lack money. If I still refuse, it will make me look ignorant."
Li Dong smiled. "Since you don't want to take over Guanghe Group, have you thought about what to do next?"
Hu Wanlin smiled like a flower. "If you don't mind, how about I be your canary?"
"Cough, cough, cough …" Li Dong coughed again and waved his hand. "Don't torment me. I can't take it."
Hu Wanlin said regretfully, "It's a pity. It's not easy to find a rich, powerful, handsome, and able to protect yourself.
I wish I could go back in time. If I met you instead of that old thing ten years ago, I wouldn't be in this situation today.
Although I haven't had much contact with you, I know that if I really got together with you, I'm afraid that I would be able to live the life I want in peace for the rest of my life.
You're not as heartless as others, but it's a pity that the beauty is gone.
If there's anything I regret, it's this.
Of course, if I didn't walk this path, I wouldn't have met you. Everything has its own destiny. "
Li Dong laughed involuntarily. "If I met a woman like you ten years ago, I would be the one feeling inferior. Besides, I was just a kid back then. How could you do it?"
"Hahaha …"
Hu Wanlin's laughter was especially hearty, without the pretentiousness of ordinary women.
After laughing for a while, Hu Wanlin said softly, "To tell you the truth, do you know why I'm telling you this?"
Without waiting for Li Dong to speak, Hu Wanlin continued, "Everyone knows that I'm a mistress. Even if they don't say it, their eyes are full of disgust and disgust.
You're different. Maybe you don't care about me at all, but at least you don't look down on me and think that I'm disgusting.
If it was someone else in your position, would they think of me, Hu Wanlin?
Even if they remembered this person, they would ignore me at this time.
I've said before that you're a real lover.
Take your driver for example. If it was someone else, even if they wanted to take care of him, they wouldn't have kept him by their side for so many years.
Also, you're not familiar with that person who owed you a debt, right?
Li Dong, I'm telling you this because I feel really honored to have a friend like you. "
Li Dong laughed and said, "I should say honored. I feel that your words of praise are sincere. These years, few people have praised me like this."
"Then I can praise you more in the future …"
"…"
The two chatted for a while and left after the meal.
…
It wasn't until they got in the car that Li Dong smiled and shook his head. He didn't expect that he would become friends with Hu Wanlin one day and chat happily.
Of course, if that woman didn't tease him, Li Dong felt that they could have a longer chat.
In addition, now that the other party was out of prison, it could be considered that he had settled one of the few knots in his heart. This was also the reason why Li Dong was in a good mood.
