On the way back, Li Dong was still carefully thinking about Hsu Shengzhe's proposal.
In fact, when Hsu Shengzhe mentioned his plan, a word flashed through Li Dong's mind — consortium!
That's right, the kind of alliance that Hsu Shengzhe mentioned was more like a prototype of a consortium.
In foreign countries, it was common for several large groups to unite.
Over time, this kind of alliance would naturally develop into a consortium.
First, it would involve all walks of life, and finally, it would be cross-shareholdings. Then, if some financial institutions could participate and form a complete set of internal systems, it would be a real consortium.
However, from the looks of it, it was definitely not as simple as Hsu Shengzhe said to want to establish a new consortium in the country.
After returning to the company, Li Dong looked at some information and documents. His brows were still furrowed.
When it was time to get off work, Shen Qian entered the door to look for him. Seeing that Li Dong was still deep in thought, she could not help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Li Dong let out a breath and shook his head. "It's nothing. It's just that I met with Hsu Shengzhe today. I still can't make up my mind about some things."
Seeing that Li Dong was a little hesitant, Shen Qian asked curiously, "What did he say?"
"He wants to establish a second Delong Group! To become the second Tang Wanxin! "
As soon as Li Dong mentioned Tang Wanxin, Shen Qian immediately understood what he meant.
The Delong Group's legend was shattered, and the impact on the business world was extraordinary.
In 2004, the Delong Group controlled as much as 100 billion yuan, and they were involved in almost all financial industries.
The Delong Group, once known as the number one private enterprise, was the object of research for all large private enterprises. They studied how they rose and how they fell.
This was a huge mountain in front of the domestic consortium model. The collapse of the Delong Group almost made all private enterprises give up the desire to establish a consortium.
Tang Wanxin's tragic ending was a great shock and a wake-up call to the heads of countless private enterprises.
What Hsu Shengzhe wanted to do this time was exactly what Tang Wanxin had been doing.
Of course, there were still some differences between the two parties. However, according to Hsu Shengzhe's thoughts, the goal of both parties was the same. In the end, they would merge their enterprises together and become a giant financial group.
Shen Qian frowned and said solemnly, "Tell me the situation in detail."
Li Dong did not hide anything from her. He repeated what Hsu Shengzhe told him in the afternoon.
Shen Qian pondered for a while and said, "From the looks of it, Hsu Shengzhe might have this intention, but I'm afraid he knows that the possibility of success is not high. After all, the core of a consortium is the banking or insurance industry. Only then can it provide a large amount of cash flow for the consortium. "
"As for Hsu Shengzhe, he's only inviting all the companies to form a mutual aid group. I think he's also worried."
Li Dong shook his head. "You don't understand him. You don't know him well enough. Hsu Shengzhe is ambitious, and I think he wants to walk down Tang Wanxin's path. The process might be different, but the essence is the same. "
Li Dong sighed. "Actually, if he only wants to form a mutual aid group, I will agree. This way, it will be beneficial for everyone."
"I'm afraid his ambition is too big. In the end, not only will he burn himself, but he will also implicate us."
Shen Qian thought for a while and said, "Even if Hsu Shengzhe has this intention, as long as we don't waver, he won't be able to sway others."
"You're underestimating him again. When the time comes, when everyone has tasted the sweetness, driven by the benefits, not everyone will be able to control themselves. China is not suitable for financial groups now, and the real financial groups are those state-owned enterprises. This is the essence of the domestic market. "
"If Hsu Shengzhe wants to break through this barrier, it's inevitable for him to take risks, and the consequences are unpredictable."
Li Dong said a few words and felt a little annoyed in his heart.
Actually, he was a little tempted by Hsu Shengzhe's proposal, but Hsu Shengzhe gave him a sense of crisis.
This guy might look calm on the surface, but he is actually full of madness, which can be seen from how he dealt with Greenland.
If Far away really boarded his ship this time, it's hard to say if Far Away will be able to survive.
Seeing Li Dong's annoyance, Shen Qian looked at him for a while and suddenly burst out laughing.
Li Dong was a little confused. "What are you laughing at?"
"You!"
Shen Qian shook her head and laughed. "Alright, don't be annoyed. I finally understand what you mean."
"What I mean?"
"Still pretending!"
Shen Qian rolled her eyes and said, "You said Hsu Shengzhe is ambitious, but I think you are talking about yourself. In fact, what you are worried about is not the path of a financial group, nor the terrible consequences that may be brought in the future. What you are worried about is who will control it! "
"Hsu Shengzhe is running around trying to set up this mutual aid group. Obviously, he will definitely rope in some enterprises and connections that he thinks will support him. But you are not satisfied. You want to occupy the interests of this organization that is about to be formed, and you want to replace Hsu Shengzhe. "
"But you have worries in your heart, and you feel that you may not be able to beat him. I think this is the main reason why you are annoyed."
Being exposed by Shen Qian, Li Dong felt like he was running naked on the street in broad daylight. He immediately said angrily, "Nonsense, am I that kind of person?"
"Keep pretending!"
Shen Qian said with contempt. Seeing him angry and embarrassed, she couldn't help but laugh. "Why are you still pretending in front of me? You must be thinking so in your heart."
Li Dong snorted and didn't say anything. Shen Qian smiled again. "In fact, I think your worries are right. We must control our fate. So far away, you have put in a lot of effort to get to this point. It's hard for outsiders to understand how much effort we have put in. "
"If Hsu Shengzhe wants to be the leader, not to mention you don't agree, we won't agree either."
"In that case, if we want to be big and not be restricted by others, it is necessary to seize control of it."
"…"
Shen Qian said a lot to dispel the worries in Li Dong's heart.
In fact, Li Dong had several concerns now. On one hand, he felt that he might not be able to defeat Hsu Shengzhe. On the other hand, if he stepped forward to seize power, it would be like burning the bridge after crossing the river.
After all, Hsu Shengzhe was the leader of this matter. Li Dong wanted to seize power before he even went in. He was more or less an ingrate.
Shen Qian said for a while. Seeing that Li Dong was still deep in thought, she said helplessly, "What's there to worry about? Besides, you are not only representing yourself. You are representing the whole Far away. At this time, personal relationships and favors are actually insignificant. "
"You said it yourself. Hsu Shengzhe wants to be the second Tang Wanxin. Do you want him to take this path?"
"But …"
"No buts!" Shen Qian waved her hand and said indifferently, "There is nothing to hesitate about. Besides, things are not settled yet. It is useless to think so much."
"That's true."
Li Dong nodded. It was uncertain whether things would succeed. There was no need to worry about it now.
Putting these things aside, Li Dong looked at the time and said, "It is late. Let's go out for a meal."
"Let's go to Changping Street. I haven't been there for a few days."
"Okay."
Li Dong did not refuse and accompanied Shen Qian downstairs.
…
Although it was already winter, Changping Street was still bustling with people.
Li Dong and Shen Qian strolled on the street. The two walked side by side for a while. As they walked, Li Dong suddenly felt a little strange. There was something wrong with Shen Qian's walking posture today.
Li Dong tilted his head to take a look and finally knew what was wrong.
In the past, when Shen Qian walked, she never waved her hand.
But today, this woman's left hand was waving vigorously, which was not in line with her style.
After thinking for a moment, Li Dong suddenly patted his head and felt a little speechless. He was really stupid.
Glancing at Li Dong patting his head, Shen Qian's face was a little red. Fortunately, the sky was getting dark, and she could not see it without looking carefully.
Just as Shen Qian blushed, she suddenly felt a big hand holding her hand. It was a very warm feeling.
Li Dong did not speak. He took her a few steps and chuckled, "My hand is about to freeze. Don't wave next time. The posture is so ugly."
Shen Qian blushed and said, "You are ugly!"
"Hahaha, okay, I am ugly, okay?"
Li Dong laughed for a while and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Anything."
"What do you mean by anything?"
"Annoying. I will eat whatever you eat."
Li Dong laughed again and did not ask again. He took her hand and wandered around the street.
Eating was not the goal. Although the snacks tasted good, Li Dong and Shen Qian were not greedy people. The atmosphere was what they wanted.
After walking and stopping for half an hour, the two did not let go of each other's hands.
When they arrived at the gate of the Dongfang Fishing Village, Shen Qian's eyes suddenly lit up. She was a little nervous and expectant, "How about eating grilled fish?"
Li Dong turned his head to look at her. Seeing that she turned her head and refused to look at him, but her neck was slightly red, he immediately understood what this woman was thinking.
After a little hesitation, Li Dong nodded and chuckled, "Then let's eat grilled fish."
At this time, Shen Qian suddenly changed her mind and said in a low voice, "Forget it. Don't trouble uncle and aunt."
"What trouble? Let's go in."
Li Dong said no more and went straight to the fishing village. On the way, he did not let go of Shen Qian's hand.
At this moment, Shen Qian did not know what she felt. Anyway, she felt that her face was very red. For the first time in so many years, she felt that her heart was beating so strongly, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
Holding her hand, Li Dong noticed that her palms were sweating. He chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's not that you haven't seen my parents. It's just a meal."
"Yes, it's just a meal."
Shen Qian cheered herself up. Then she held Li Dong's hand tightly. They entered the fishing village together.
As soon as they entered the door, Cao Fang, who was greeting customers at the counter, saw them.
When she saw clearly that they were holding hands, Cao Fang was slightly stunned. But soon she reacted and greeted them, "Dongzi, Little Shen, you haven't eaten tonight, have you?"
Blushing, Shen Qian did not dare to look at her. She said "Auntie" and did not say anything.
Seeing this, Li Dong smiled and said, "Mom, you haven't eaten tonight. Are there any empty seats upstairs? "
"Yes, yes, yes. Go upstairs and sit down. I'll make something for you."
Saying this, Cao Fang looked at Shen Qian and said, "Little Shen, what do you want to eat? I'll choose the best for you."
Blushing, Shen Qian whispered, "Auntie, I'm fine with anything."
Hearing this, Cao Fang smiled and said, "Then I'll arrange it for you. You go upstairs and sit down. I just happen to have a few words with Dongzi."
"Well, then I'll go up first."
Shen Qian could not bear Cao Fang's gaze for a long time. Hearing this, she hurriedly let go of Li Dong's hand and quickened her pace to go upstairs.
After waiting for her to leave, Cao Fang slightly frowned and said, "Dongzi, this …"
Li Dong knew what his mother meant and said softly, "Mom, I'll handle this matter myself. Don't worry about it."
Cao Fang thought of Qin Yuhan who came back to take care of Li Dong some time ago. Looking at Shen Qian who was not far away, she finally sighed and said nothing.
Li Dong did not want to explain more to his mother. He simply said a few words to Cao Fang and went upstairs.
Sometimes running away could not solve the problem. What should be faced must be faced.
Shen Qian had sacrificed too much for him. Couldn't he satisfy her little wish?
