In the auditorium.
Thousands of people were silent.
Many people on the second floor were impressed. Li Dong's prestige in the Faraway Group had reached its peak.
The gap between them could be seen by comparison.
Of course, they were not comparing Yuan Chengdao and the others, but themselves.
Many of the people upstairs were the heads of their respective groups. When they organized events, although they performed well overall, not many could do what Li Dong did.
Not many, but not none. Longhua Group could definitely do it.
Xu Jianghua had such prestige in Longhua Group, but Xu Jianghua had many years of experience, and Longhua's employees had gone through many rounds of screening to achieve this.
Far away, to put it bluntly, most of them were small fries.
It was this group of small fries that could do this, which showed how powerful Li Dong was.
Li Dong did not care about what others thought. He looked around, and after a while, Li Dong smiled and said, "Not bad, this posture is enough to scare people. Have you trained before?"
Everyone looked at each other, and then many people could not help but laugh out loud.
Li Dong also chuckled and said, "That's right. The big guy scared me just now. It was originally lively, but when I went on stage, all of you suddenly became silent. It scared me. "
"Hahaha …"
The laughter became louder, and the previous solemnity disappeared.
Li Dong pressed his hands slightly and said with a smile, "Let me say a few words."
"There are some things that do not need to be announced at the annual meeting, but since everyone has finally gathered together, and many people are waiting for me to announce something big, I will announce a few big things to let them laugh."
Everyone on the second floor was a little speechless. This guy was still as unruly as ever.
Li Dong made a joke, and when everyone stopped laughing, he returned to a serious face and said, "Long story short, I will not waste everyone's time."
"First, I have been the group's CEO. But recently, my energy is not as good as before, and I am a little tired with multiple jobs. After a round of screening, I've found a powerful new CEO for everyone. Director Yuan, please show your face. "
Below the stage, Yuan Chengdao stood up, turned around, and bowed to the crowd.
Far away executives and the people upstairs had already guessed that Yuan Chengdao would take over as the CEO, so they didn't have any special reactions.
The ordinary employees looked at him curiously. Just now, Yuan Chengdao gave them a good feeling on stage. Now that they heard that he was the new president, they didn't have any resistance.
Of course, it was mainly because no matter who the new CEO was, it had little to do with them.
In the eyes of ordinary employees, they only needed to be responsible to the store manager and the boss. They didn't care who the second in command was.
Seeing that there was no sound in the auditorium, Li Dong said in a bad mood, "You have poor eyesight. Why aren't you clapping?"
"Pa pa pa!"
A thunderous applause sounded. Li Dong smiled and said, "That's right. The new CEO has taken office. Why don't you all show your appreciation? I won't say much about CEO Yuan's handsomeness. I'll let you all know that CEO Yuan is a bachelor. The unmarried ladies here can work hard and strive to conquer this fortress. Of course, the married ones shouldn't have such thoughts. Although I don't object to office romance, I'm afraid that your family members will smash the windows of my house. "
"Hahaha …"
Another burst of laughter sounded, and Yuan Chengdao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Who introduced the new group CEO like this?
Regardless of what he thought, Li Dong continued to talk about the glory of Yuan Chengdao.
He graduated from the world's top business school and served as a senior executive of many international groups. Far away, he had made great contributions to stabilizing the Sunan market and opening up the Shandong market …
After hearing Li Dong's words, many people couldn't help but get a new understanding of Yuan Chengdao.
Including the bosses on the second floor who didn't think much of him before, they looked at him a few more times. They didn't expect this guy to be so capable.
Previously, many people didn't think much of him because he was young.
They felt that Li Dong was young and liked to use these young people.
But now, they heard that this guy had a lot of experience and was obviously not incompetent.
After Li Dong introduced Yuan Chengdao, he asked him to go on stage and say a few words.
Compared to before, Yuan Chengdao was much more low-key. He simply introduced himself and left the stage.
As soon as he got off the stage, many people stretched their necks.
Li Dong said that he was going to announce something big. Far away, although the new CEO taking office was not a small matter, it didn't have much to do with them.
Now that the CEO's matter was settled, Li Dong should get down to business.
Seeing Li Dong pick up the microphone, many people held their breath and listened attentively.
But after waiting for a while, everyone looked at Li Dong, who seemed to be in a daze, as if he had forgotten to continue speaking.
This time, many people were speechless. Are you kidding me?
Li Dong was not deliberately teasing them. He just remembered something. After pausing for a while, Li Dong looked up and said embarrassedly, "Mayor Chen, did I pass that? I almost forgot. If I didn't pass, I won't say it. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if I didn't pass. "
Mayor Pingchuan, who was invited, felt his mouth twitch. After a while, he coughed and said, "Didn't I reply to your board of directors?"
"Is that so?"
Li Dong muttered and looked at Liu Qi, who was not far away.
Liu Qi was about to break down. She nodded vigorously to show that she had passed. At that moment, Liu Qi felt like dying. Boss, if you didn't pass, would we have agreed to let you speak on stage?
Li Dong laughed dryly and said, "I was just joking. I was just lightening up the atmosphere. Please don't take it to heart."
After a perfunctory reply, Li Dong said, "Secondly, the group is going to set up a charity fund association. For charity, I, Li Dong, am duty-bound to do it! "
"Many people in Jiangbei know that I, Li Dong, am the most passionate about charity."
"Of course, if it's just me doing charity, it doesn't reflect our social responsibility Far away. Our Faraway Group is an enterprise with a deep sense of social responsibility … "
Li Dong praised himself for a while, praising himself and praising the distance.
Far away employees were full of smiles, but the people upstairs could not take it anymore.
It was just a charity fund. In fact, there were many in Pingchuan.
They thought it was a big deal. If it was just this, then the few hours they had spent here tonight would have been wasted.
Also, Li Dong was too long-winded. He talked about a small matter as if he was afraid that people did not know he was a great philanthropist.
After waiting for a while, just when everyone was getting impatient, Li Dong said with an indifferent attitude, "Since we are doing charity, we have to show our attitude. In order to do charity, many people abroad even donate their entire family's wealth. "
"Of course, I, Li Dong, am not that great. It's difficult for me to donate my family assets, but I will do my best."
"The Distance Charitable Fund is established. I will personally donate 500 million first. This 500 million will be transferred over a year. In addition, Faraway Group will donate 200 million to the charity fund in the early stage and will continue to donate later. In addition to the donation, Faraway Group's annual profits will also be invested into the fund association. I can't say the amount now, but give me a bottom line. It will not be less than 100 million every year … "
Li Dong was still talking on stage, but at this moment, everyone was impatient.
Everyone's face was full of shock and disbelief, including Shen Qian and others who already knew that he was going to set up a charity fund, and the group of government officials who already knew the news.
They all knew that Li Dong was going to set up a corporate charity fund, and they also knew that Li Dong would not be too stingy.
But what was the concept of 500 million?
Coupled with the 200 million from Faraway Group, as well as the subsequent dividend investment, Li Dong's total amount of money was probably no less than 1 billion!
In 2006, the most famous philanthropist in the country, not including those in Hong Kong and Macau, was the head of Mengniu.
Old Niu donated all his shares, which caused a sensation in the country. But until now, the value of Old Niu's shares was only six to seven hundred million.
Even so, Niu Gensheng was called the number one philanthropist in Hua Xia by many people.
At the same time, he was also the first philanthropist in the country to donate shares. Even the leaders of the central government had met and praised him.
And tonight, at the internal annual meeting of a private company, a young man in his early twenties said to everyone indifferently that he was going to donate one billion!
It was even more than one billion!
Did they hear it wrong, or did Li Dong say the wrong unit?
The silence lasted for a long time. When Li Dong finished speaking, the huge auditorium was still silent.
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Everyone, give me some reaction."
"Ah!"
At this time, many people exclaimed softly. Among them, the ones who had the biggest reaction were not the employees Far Away, nor the bosses of those companies.
Instead, it was a group of government officials who were invited.
Among the many officials, Mayor Chen's status might not be the highest, but it was definitely the most important.
When Li Dong finished speaking, Mayor Chen could not maintain his composure. He quickly stood up and said, "General Manager Li, is this true? Wasn't your registered capital five million? Now … "
Seeing that he was questioning in public, everyone knew that he was a little out of control.
This kind of thing should not have come out of his mouth, but he asked. It was because the amount Li Dong mentioned was too large. It was so large that the annual charity donations in Jiangbei could not reach this figure.
Not to mention a year, if one really calculated carefully, the total amount of money donated by the charity associations in Jiangbei in the past three years might not even reach one billion.
If this was true, it would cause a sensation not only in Jiangbei, but also in the entire country the next day. There would probably be reports about Li Dong.
Hearing Mayor Chen's question, Li Dong laughed and said, "Of course it's true. Everyone is here. Do you think I, Li Dong, will lie? I'm doing charity after all. I'm still young, why would I need so much money? Helping more people has always been my wish. If money is gone, I can earn it again. But I really can't bear to see so many people suffer. I'm a soft-hearted person. Every time I see those children don't even have enough to eat, I secretly go back and wipe my tears. Now that I have some ability, of course, I have to do something for this society … "
Although what Li Dong said was a little fake, and even a little hypocritical.
But no one refuted him, and no one interrupted him.
If you are not convinced, then donate a few hundred million and see?
Not to mention a few hundred million, even if it was tens of millions, how many people would really be willing to donate?
Everyone listened quietly. When Li Dong finished speaking, Mayor Chen suddenly bowed to Li Dong.
Li Dong quickly dodged, then laughed and said, "Mayor Chen, what are you doing?"
Mayor Chen said with a straight face, "General Manager Li, I don't represent anyone tonight. I only represent myself, and I'm bowing to you on behalf of myself. Jiangbei can have a person like General Manager Li, I think I will be proud for the rest of my life! For Faraway Group to be able to come this far under my tenure may be my greatest achievement. I think when I'm old, I will still be proud of Faraway General Manager Li! "
"Mayor Chen's compliment is making me blush. My vanity is rising."
Li Dong made a joke, and the others also laughed for a while.
However, at this moment, everyone's heart was a little uneasy.
Li Dong was too generous, so generous that they felt that they did not know Li Dong anymore.
