On November 10th, the Faraway Group's meeting began.
Wang Yue and Sun Tao, who rarely appeared, also appeared in the conference room.
When Li Dong entered the door, Wang Yue was communicating with Sun Tao and Qin Hai.
When they saw Li Dong, everyone quickly got up to greet him.
Li Dong pressed his hands and smiled. "Please sit down. CEO Sun just came back. You must be tired."
Sun Tao quickly said, "I'm not tired. I don't move every day. Running back and forth can be considered as exercise."
Li Dong laughed. When everyone was quiet, Li Dong glanced at Liu Hongmei.
Liu Hongmei saw this and got up. "Before this meeting begins, I have good news to report to everyone. Yesterday afternoon, Dongyu Real Estate received 2.35 billion in cash. This money has now been deposited into the company's account!"
When the others heard this, they immediately beamed with joy and clapped loudly.
Wu Shengnan and the other people from the real estate company knew about this.
But many people like Sun Tao didn't know.
Now that they suddenly heard that more than two billion had been deposited into the account, how could these people not be happy?
Some time ago, not only Li Dong was driven crazy by money, but they were also driven crazy by money.
Because of the lack of development funds, they couldn't carry out many projects at all. Li Dong borrowed a lot of money from outside. Sun Tao and the others were anxious when they saw it.
Now that the company finally had a return, how could everyone not be excited?
After saying this, Liu Hongmei didn't sit down. She continued, "In addition to the 2.35 billion, the pre-sale of Dongyu Real Estate's Mingyuan District was also very smooth. There was a total of 250 million in the account. Coupled with the 500 million that General Manager Li brought back from the acquisition of Kelong, there was still 150 million left. In addition to Dongyu Real Estate, Faraway Supermarket had a cumulative profit of more than 50 million in October, plus the remaining 100 million in reserve. In total, the group's current liquidity is as high as 2.9 billion! "
Applause sounded again, and many people were grinning from ear to ear.
Almost three billion in liquid funds. This was simply an astronomical figure. It was too shocking.
Coupled with the rumor that Li Dong himself said that this was a gathering to divide the spoils, many people revealed looks of anticipation.
Now that the group was rich, General Manager Li should loosen his grip.
After Liu Hongmei finished her announcement, Li Dong applauded and said with a smile, "Boss Wu played a big part in the success of the real estate company. Let's give him a round of applause."
"Pa pa pa!"
As the applause continued, Wu Shengnan quickly stood up and said, "General Manager Li, you flatter me. It's all thanks to General Manager Li that the real estate company can achieve such results this time. I don't dare to take credit."
Li Dong laughed and pressed his hands together. "Sit down and talk. You don't have to be so humble. Although I did contribute a little to the real estate company, if it wasn't for your good execution, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly. Especially when the two communities started construction in a hurry and lacked funds. With Yao Hong and the rest causing trouble, Dong Yu Real Estate was stable and not in chaos. This is all thanks to Boss Wu. You don't have to be humble. "
Li Dong praised Wu Shengnan for a while, then praised the general managers of the supermarket system.
As for the mall and logistics, although there were only exports and no imports, it was not Qin Hai and the rest's problem. Li Dong gave them a simple praise and changed the topic.
Qin Hai and Liu Hong did not say anything. Although Li Dong's attitude was a little biased, they had to admit it.
So far, among the four subsidiaries, only the two subsidiaries had been swallowing money and did not bring benefits to the group. At this time, whether it was a crime or not, they had to accept it.
After the praise, Li Dong went straight to the topic. "There's nothing much to talk about in today's meeting. I think everyone has heard that today is a gathering to divide the spoils. Now that we have money, we have to spend it. Previously, we were timid, and a lot of things were fooled. Now that we have money, we have to make up for it. If the group wants to develop, how can we not spend money? With so much money, I will not let it sit in the bank and eat interest. "
Then, Li Dong turned to Sun Tao and said, "CEO Sun, how is the situation at Times Square?"
Sun Tao replied, "Everything is going well. We are cooperating with Su Guo, and those foreign supermarkets are not our match. But I am afraid this situation will continue for a while. These foreign supermarkets have strong capital, and it is not possible to drive them away in a short time. "
"That's good. I don't expect them to be defeated so quickly. But Times Square cannot curl up in the Sunan and not move. Previously, you said you wanted to close the foreign stores, but I didn't agree. At that time, we had no money, and we couldn't develop even if we wanted to. But now that we have some money, we still need to expand the foreign stores. Sunan first. CEO Sun, your next task is to open up the Lu Province market. Lu Province and Sunan border, and Times Square had a lot of business there. I will leave it to you. Is that okay? "
Hearing this, Sun Tao quickly said, "No problem."
"I didn't tell you before coming back. Have you made any plans in this area before? If we want to open up the Lu Province market, have you estimated how much we will invest? "
Hearing this, Sun Tao suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuan Chengdao not far away, saying, "Director Yuan has made plans in this area before. Although I have done some research, I am not as clear as Director Yuan. Do you want to say a few words?"
Li Dong glanced at Yuan Chengdao, who was silent, and said with a smile, "Director Yuan, please say a few words."
Yuan Chengdao cleared his throat. Without any stage fright, he said with fervor and assurance, "I've done some research on Lu Province before. Lu Province has a total of two sub-provincial cities, 15 prefecture-level cities, and 137 county-level administrative districts …
If we want to open up the Lu Province market, we need to set up at least one store in each county-level administrative district.
According to our standard for third-level stores, the first year's investment is about 8 million yuan if we invest in renting a storefront.
As for the prefecture-level cities, we need to invest 15 second-level stores, with an investment of 15 million yuan for each store.
There's no need to expand the two sub-provincial cities. Times Square already has a hypermarket there, so we can save the money.
Overall, we need to invest about 1.3 to 1.4 billion yuan if we want to occupy the Lu Province market … "
Li Dong waited until he finished and the meeting room quieted down. Then, Li Dong coughed and said, "Director Yuan, please consider the actual situation. The one-time investment is too big, so don't treat money lightly. We can put aside the county-level cities for now, and it's enough to have our stores in the municipal districts and county-level cities. "
Yuan Chengdao naturally knew that Li Dong wouldn't invest so much money at once, so he immediately nodded and said, "Lu Province has a total of 52 municipal districts and 28 county-level cities. If we enter Lu Province, the first batch of 65 third-level stores and 15 second-level stores will be enough. The total investment will be about 750 million yuan, and we can afford it for now. "
Rubbing his chin, Li Dong asked Wang Yue after a brief pondering, "Mr. Wang, how much will it cost to open up the Zhejiang market?"
Glancing at Yuan Chengdao, Wang Yue replied, "Although Zhejiang is smaller than Lu Province, its economy is more developed, and the expenditure for manpower and other things is higher than Lu Province. If we follow what General Manager Li said and only open up the county-level cities and municipal districts, the expenditure will be about the same as Lu Province. "
"That's only two provinces, which means that the investment will be about 1.5 billion yuan."
Li Dong sighed. This money was really easy to spend, and it sounded like it was a joke to him.
"General Manager Li, we don't have to invest all of the money in one go. The first batch of 500 to 600 million yuan should be enough. As for the follow-up funds, it's fine as long as it's in three to five months." Yuan Chengdao added.
Hearing that, Li Dong thought for a moment and said, "Alright. Since we said we will open up the Huadong market, we can't just talk and do nothing. It's impossible not to spend money. Let's not talk about 500 to 600 million yuan. Next, I will allocate 500 million yuan to Time and 500 million yuan to Mr. Wang. You guys set up the platform and go in first. "
Hearing that, Wang Yue and Sun Tao quickly nodded with excitement on their faces. Obviously, they were very satisfied with Li Dong's distribution plan.
After that, Li Dong didn't ask any more questions and directly said, "As for Ke Long, I said that he will increase the capital by 200 million yuan, and the money needs to be in the account. Since Mr. Wang is in charge of opening up the Zhejiang market, I won't let Ke Long join in the fun. Director Qi, make the arrangements. Ke Long's capital increase will be mainly used to enter Gan Province. We don't have any resources in Gan Province at the moment, and this 200 million yuan will be used as a test. The possibility of losing money here is high, so let Yao Hong help us. "
Everyone laughed, and Qi Yunna hurriedly nodded and said, "I will make the arrangements, but if Ke Long wants to open up the market …"
Qi Yunna was a little troubled by this candidate. Previously, Li Dong had said that Ke Long would open up the Zhejiang market. With Wang Yue there, Qi Yunna didn't have to worry about anything.
But now, Wang Yue was in charge of opening up the Zhejiang market alone, and Ke Long was going to Gan Province. It couldn't be done without someone at the helm.
Li Dong also touched his chin and thought about it. After a while, he said, "Let Ke Long's people try it themselves first. After all, it's a supermarket that has been operating for many years. Don't they have any talents? With a high reward, there will be brave people. Later, arrange a few people to go to Gan Province and investigate first. Do it step by step, and don't panic. "
Qi Yunna nodded, and Li Dong said again, "Also, previously, you said that you would stock up a batch of grain and oil. I promised you 150 million yuan before, but now, don't ask for 150 million yuan. I will allocate 200 million yuan to you. Do as you see fit."
Qi Yunna's face lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Thank you, General Manager Li."
"What are you thanking me for? It's all for the company to make money. I'm not giving you the money directly."
Li Dong teased and continued, "In this way, in total, 1.4 billion yuan will be spent. Faraway Supermarket must leave a part of the reserve fund. Previously, our reserve fund was too little. This time, let's add another 100 million yuan to make it 200 million yuan. I will feel more at ease. That will be 1.6 billion yuan."
Li Dong was calculating the accounts, and so were the others.
When they heard that 1.6 billion yuan had already been allocated, Liu Hong, Qin Hai, and Wu Shengnan all looked nervous.
The supermarket was the foundation of Faraway Supermarket, and they had no objection to investing 1.6 billion yuan.
But after this 1.6 billion yuan, there was only 1.3 billion yuan left. This amount of money didn't seem to be enough to share.
Just as the few of them were nervous, Li Dong continued, "I have allocated 100 million yuan to the mall, and it can barely keep the mall operating. However, the mall has opened a new nationwide channel, and PP and Weibo are still being developed. It's also time to use money. Don't be too stingy. How about this, I will allocate another 100 million yuan this time … "
As soon as Li Dong finished speaking, Liu Hong complained, "General Manager Li, 100 million yuan for the mall is really not enough! Setting up the after-sales channel will cost more than we thought. In addition, we have to develop a third-party payment platform and do publicity. It will cost at least 300 million yuan. "
Li Dong glanced at him and said somewhat speechlessly, "You really don't care about money, do you? 300 million yuan? How dare you open your mouth? President Shen isn't here, so don't mess around. 200 million yuan. Don't ask for more. "
Although Liu Hong was somewhat dissatisfied, an additional 100 million yuan was not bad. He hurriedly nodded and shrank back.
After talking about the mall, Li Dong said to Qin Hai, "As for the logistics side, because we still have to support the operation of the supermarket and mall, as well as a large number of express delivery points and storage centers, it will cost a lot. In addition, the distribution center in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is still under construction. It's also time to spend money. Is 300 million enough for the logistics company? "
Qin Hai nodded sullenly and said, "It's almost enough. In fact, there is still some profit on the logistics side. We can even be self-sufficient, but the development will be slower."
"That's good, but what we need now is speed. Let's make it 300 million yuan. Speed up the logistics system."
"Okay, I got it."
After spending 500 million yuan on the logistics and mall, there was a total of 800 million yuan left.
Wu Shengnan heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, 800 million yuan was not a small amount. Just as she was thinking about how to spend this 800 million yuan, Li Dong spoke.
"On the Dongyu side, because the three construction sites are still under construction, the cost is not small. Previously, I asked CEO Wu to hold back 100 million yuan, but this 100 million yuan has just been included in the group's liquidity. How about this, I will allocate another 200 million yuan. It should be enough to support the presale of the two residential areas in Binhe, right? "
Wu Shengnan was stunned for a moment before replying, "A total of 300 million yuan should be enough to complete the presale construction. General Manager Li, the remaining 500 million yuan …"
"Why, are you trying to empty me?"
Li Dong laughed and then explained, "The remaining money can't be spent too much. Otherwise, if something happens to the group, we won't even have the chance to support. Now, the supermarket needs to develop the three areas in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Lu Province, and Gan Province, and the money is flowing like water. Although a lot of money has been allocated, it's hard to say whether this money will be enough. In addition, there is still a 200 million yuan loan from Time that is about to mature. I have to prepare this money as well. In fact, there is not much left of the 500 million yuan. How about this, I will squeeze some more and allocate you 100 million yuan. You can use a smaller piece of land to practice first. Don't let the employees stop. "
The corner of Wu Shengnan's mouth twitched. 100 million yuan!
For real estate, what was 100 million yuan? Could this be considered money?
If they had not eaten a big meal, it would have been fine. But Dongyu Real Estate had just eaten two big meals, and now they were suddenly asked to eat vegetables. How could Wu Shengnan not feel uncomfortable?
