It was almost eleven o 'clock by the time they finished dinner.
Because it was too late, Li Dong didn't let Shen Qian go back alone. He drove Shen Qian to the gate of the provincial party committee.
When they got out of the car, Shen Qian asked, "Do you still want the thing you left with me last time?"
Li Dong almost forgot it if she didn't mention it. He nodded and said, "Of course. Why don't you bring it to me tomorrow?"
Shen Qian was a little curious and asked, "What's in it?"
"Don't worry about it."
"Then I won't give it to you."
Li Dong was speechless and said, "You're really something. Why do you have to ask?"
"Are you going to tell me or not?"
"Account information."
"Account? What account? "
"Five hundred million yuan. I'm going to pay back the money. Although the probability of an accident is lower than winning the lottery, I have to be prepared, in case you say that I'm going back on my word."
Li Dong said it didn't matter, but Shen Qian's eyes were slightly red.
Gently pecking Li Dong's face, Shen Qian complained, "Why did you leave this for me? It's so unlucky. If I knew it was like this, I wouldn't have let you go abroad."
Li Dong giggled and said after a while, "Well, it's all in the past. Don't talk about it. Remember to bring it to me. Don't take my money."
"Screw you!"
Shen Qian's joy turned into anger. She told Li Dong to be careful when driving, and then turned around and entered the provincial party committee.
…
It was already twelve o 'clock when they returned to Wanyuan.
Li Dong originally thought that his parents were asleep, but they were not. They were watching TV in the living room.
As soon as he saw Li Dong come back, Li Chengyuan yawned and said, "Your mother has something to say to you. I'm going back to my room to sleep."
Li Dong nodded. Li Chengyuan winked at him and returned to his room.
Li Dong didn't know what his father meant, but he didn't care. He sat down in front of Cao Fang and said, "Mom, why do you have to say it in the middle of the night? Why don't we talk about it another day?"
"No, say it now."
Cao Fang turned off the TV and sat upright. "Tell me honestly, this Shen Qian and that Qin Yuhan, who is your girlfriend?"
Li Dong guessed that his mother was probably going to say that. He immediately said, "Mom, didn't I tell you that Yuhan is my girlfriend? Haven't you seen her before? Why are you still asking?"
"Nonsense, how could I not ask? Don't lie to me. You guys didn't look right when you were eating today. That Little Shen even fed you food … "
"Mom!"
Li Dong interrupted Cao Fang and said angrily, "Mom, you peeped at me while I was eating. I remember the door was closed. How did you see it?"
Cao Fang coughed and said, "Don't change the topic. I'm asking you, what do you think?"
"What do I think?"
Li Dong began to play dumb. Seeing his mother staring at him, Li Dong yawned again and said, "Mom, it's getting late. I've been on the plane for the whole day. I'm tired and haven't slept yet. I'm going to sleep first."
"You're not allowed to go! Then let me ask you, when do you plan to get married? "
"We'll talk about it in three to five years."
"Three to five years?"
Cao Fang calculated for a while. Three to five years was not too late. Li Dong was 21 this year, so he would only be 24 or 25 after three to five years.
However, after thinking about it, Cao Fang frowned again and said, "How old is Little Shen?"
Li Dong rolled his eyes and said after a while, "I'm not sure. He's 25 or 26."
"25 or 26? Doesn't that mean he'll be 30 in a few years? It's a little late for a woman to be 30 …"
Cao Fang muttered to herself, but Li Dong didn't care about her. While she wasn't paying attention, he slipped into his room.
When Cao Fang came to her senses, Li Dong was nowhere to be seen.
…
On the 17th, Li Dong stayed in the company for a day to deal with the affairs he had left behind.
On the 18th, Li Dong got into the car early in the morning and rushed to Sunan.
The headquarters of Times was in Tongzhou, Sunan, which was not too far from Pingchuan. It was about a five-hour drive.
This time, Li Dong did not bring many people with him. Other than Zhou Haidong and Tan Yong, Li Dong only brought Chen Ke.
Of course, the necessary protection was necessary. The security department had arranged for a few people to follow them. There was no need to worry about that.
They set off at 7: 30 in the morning. At about 12: 30, Li Dong arrived at Tongzhou.
Following the GPS, Zhou Haidong drove to the hotel where Sun Tao and the others were staying.
Before the car door opened, a large group of people were waiting outside.
Sun Tao, Liu Qi, Yu Bo, Yuan Chengdao …
Almost all of the teams that had been sent to Sunan were waiting.
Li Dong got out of the car and greeted them. Then he said with a smile, "Why are you so polite? I'm flattered."
Sun Tao smiled and said, "Of course. We can't let others look down on us when we're outside."
When Li Dong heard this, he reacted and said, "Look down on us? Who dares to look down on us? "
Liu Qi said indignantly, "Who else? Those people from Bailian. We happen to be in the same hotel. They are so arrogant. But now, they don't have the qualifications to put on airs with us. Director Li, once you come and we sign the agreement, the era will be ours. Those losers can only wait to leave with their tails between their legs! "
Li Dong laughed and said, "Yes, they are just a bunch of losers. Why should we be afraid of them? Bailian is strong, but we Far away are not pushovers. If they have the guts, let them go to Jiangbei and torture them to death! "
When everyone heard this, they immediately laughed.
Then, the group of people followed Li Dong to the hotel. Along the way, they naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Li Dong and the others didn't mind. Sun Tao said as he walked, "Times' chairman, Mr. Fang Keng, is still in Hong Kong. The person negotiating with us is Times' general manager, Luo Jianzhong. We are almost done with the initial conditions. If General Manager Li has no objections, we can sign the agreement when chairman Fang arrives."
"What about the other minor shareholders? Is there a problem? "
"No problem. We have already discussed this. Mr. Fang owns more than 70% of the shares. Even if the others refuse, it's useless. Besides, 2.4 billion isn't low. Most of the minor shareholders agree. Even if some have objections, it won't be of much use. "
"That's good."
Li Dong nodded and chatted with Yu Bo, who was beside him.
As they spoke, the elevator arrived.
When the elevator door opened, seven or eight men and women in suits walked out.
When Liu Qi saw them, she whispered in Li Dong's ear, "People from Bailian."
"They haven't left yet?"
"No. General Manager Li, you didn't come. Wumart was forced to stop buying. The people from Bailian still haven't given up. They want to find our weakness and force us out of the competition."
"What about Huarun?"
"Huarun left a while ago. They bought Suguo and have already occupied half of Sunan. They aren't as interested in Times as Bailian."
Li Dong nodded. At this time, Sun Tao met with the people from Bailian.
The leader of Bailian was a woman in her thirties. She wasn't too old. When she saw Sun Tao, she smiled and said, "Director Sun, what a coincidence. Are you going upstairs after lunch?"
Sun Tao replied with a smile, "No. Our director Li is here. He wants to see if he can sign the agreement this afternoon. It won't be too late to eat after signing the agreement."
When the other party heard this, her expression changed slightly. She looked at the crowd. When she saw Li Dong, her expression turned ugly.
However, people in the business world, especially the higher-ups of a large group like Bailian, still had the ability to restrain themselves.
The other party's expression changed, but she quickly returned to normal and said, "Congratulations, Director Sun. However, Chairman Fang hasn't arrived yet. Everything can change. Director Sun, please take it easy."
Without waiting for Sun Tao to reply, Li Dong said indifferently, "Then I don't need your concern. I, Li Dong, lack everything but money."
When they heard Li Dong's bold words, the people from Bailian changed their expressions. They were somewhat indignant.
Li Dong was rich, but was he richer than Bailian?
Any company under Bailian Group was not smaller than Li Dong's Far Away. Their number of stores and annual sales were tens to hundreds of times more than Far Away.
Li Dong acted like a rich man in front of them. He really didn't know what he was talking about.
Not to mention Far Away, even Huarun was currently not a match for Bailian.
At the very least, as the leader of the retail industry, no matter how you looked at it, Bailian completely crushed Huarun, not to mention Far Away. They weren't on the same level.
Of course, thinking was just thinking. The people from Bailian didn't refute.
Although they looked down on Li Dong's nouveau riche appearance, they still had some confidence in what they said. That was, Far Away Li Dong had the final say, and the money was almost all Li Dong's.
Bailian was different. It was a state-owned enterprise.
These higher-ups didn't hold any shares. Even if they got dividends every year, it was only a few. At least, the few present didn't.
They were just a group of workers. Li Dong was a billionaire. At this time, the two sides were somewhat unequal.
If the General Manager or Chairman of Bailian came, then Li Dong would have to lower his head. Now, a low-ranked higher-up in the group obviously didn't have the qualifications to go head-on with Li Dong.
Seeing that they didn't say anything, Li Dong smiled and said, "Everyone, don't be angry. We might become colleagues one day. At this time, it doesn't matter whether you are angry or not. I'm looking forward to the day when we can cooperate."
Hearing this, everyone understood what Li Dong meant.
The female leader of the Bailian Group forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Chairman Li, for thinking so highly of us. But I don't think there will be a chance to cooperate."
After saying this, the woman hurriedly left with the others.
Seeing that they had left, Liu Qi smiled and said, "General Manager Li, you are really awesome. You made them shut up the moment you came. You don't know how arrogant they were before. Just looking at them pissed me off. I'm so angry! "
Li Dong said angrily, "Serves them right. They are arrogant with you. Can't you be more arrogant than them? Why are you afraid of them? They are not your leaders. "
"They don't have the confidence."
"We will have the confidence in the future. If we take down Era this year, we will be qualified to fight with these groups."
"I'm looking forward to that day." Liu Qi laughed.
The others also laughed. Once they took down Era, Far Away would have taken an important step and entered the ranks of retail giants.
