The battle between Far Away and Huarun Resources was getting more and more intense.
Now, not only was the retail industry waiting for the result, but many outsiders were also attracted.
Many people even shouted slogans to go shopping in Jinling.
It was the first time in many years that the two retail giants with a scale of ten billion had launched an endless bloodbath in Jinling.
Beijing.
Looking at the reports about the two companies on the web and the lively discussion on Weibo, Qin Yuhan couldn't hide her worry.
Zhou Yue, who was next to her, comforted her softly, "Don't worry, it will be fine."
Qin Yuhan shook her head and said, "You don't understand. Li Dong will not admit defeat. I know him. Although the outside world speculates that he may eventually withdraw from the Sunan market, he will definitely fight to the end. I am worried … "
Zhou Yue frowned and said, "Believe me, it will be fine. Far Away and Huarun Resources are currently one of the few national retail brands in the country. At the last moment, the government will come forward to mediate. "
"Really?" Qin Yuhan's eyes were full of expectation.
If the government came forward to mediate, the two sides should stop fighting, right?
Although she didn't know how much Li Dong had invested this time, many experts on the Internet said that the two companies lost more than ten million in the Sunan area every day.
If this continued, they would lose more than one billion by the end of the year.
Such a large loss, even a ten billion company would find it difficult to bear, not to mention that Li Dong had a large loss in the e-commerce market not long ago.
Zhou Yue smiled and said, "It's true. After all, the government doesn't want to see any company collapse."
"I really hope the government will come forward to regulate soon …"
Qin Yuhan whispered, then bit her lips and said, "Then I will go to the dessert house. By the way, Sister Yueyue, has my loan been approved?"
"Soon, it will be approved at the end of the month."
"Well, then I will go to the new store first. At the end of the month, when the loan is approved, I will start the renovation. I plan to open a few new stores before the New Year."
Zhou Yue wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
Qin Yuhan's dessert house was not large, and there were only four branches in total.
But this time, probably because of the stimulation, she took a one-off loan of five million and prepared to open five new branches.
Zhou Yue didn't know whether this was a good or bad thing, but Qin Yuhan insisted, so she had to find some connections to help with the loan.
When Qin Yuhan went out, Qi Fangfang, who had just pretended to be asleep on the bed, turned and said, "Yueyue, why did you agree? Isn't it good to develop step by step? Now we are expanding quickly. You can see Li Dong. Li. Li Dong. Even if, Zhou, Yuhan, there, Yuhan, he, Yuhan, there.
Zhou Yue said helplessly, "Even if I don't agree, it's only a matter of time before she gets a loan herself. "Yun, and," Zhou said, "Yun 'Family,", "", ", and", "," ",", "," "," "" "Yun," Yun, she "," Yun " Li Dong was, after all, a billionaire. If he really went bankrupt, he wouldn't be able to support that guy even if he had less than a hundred million yuan. Perhaps this girl is still thinking about whether she can help him make a comeback. She's really thinking too much. "
When Qi Fangfang heard this, she could not help but sigh and said, "It's all Li Dong's fault. He didn't want to be a big boss and insisted on risking his life. I saw a lot of people on the internet don't think Far away will win. After all, Su Guo has a backer … What about Li Dong? This guy relied on himself to build up his family's wealth. If he uses up all his family's wealth, I think he'll be in big trouble. Recently, I don't think even the atmosphere in Beijing is very good, let alone Jinling. Both Wumart and Gome have had more promotional activities recently. In addition, Gome seems to be competing with Suning for Dazhong Electronics. I'm afraid they won't be able to provide support Far Away … "
In the past, people like them would not pay attention to these retail companies. Even if it was a Wal-Mart, they would only treat it as a shopping place.
But the boyfriend of one of the girls in the dormitory was a domestic retail magnate. The few people in the dormitory naturally knew more about retail companies.
In Qi Fangfang's opinion, Far Away's investment of billions in Beijing and Tianjin might not be very good.
They hadn't opened for business yet, so they hadn't seen any results yet. When they opened, Wumart would definitely attack Far Away.
And although Far Away had reached a strategic alliance with Suning, Suning was also in trouble now. They were fighting with Gome, and it seemed that they didn't have the upper hand.
In the end, maybe both companies would be defeated and leave Beijing and Tianjin.
After Qi Fangfang finished speaking, Zhou Yue smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that he wants to risk his life, but he has no choice. Far Away has been expanding too fast in the past few years, snatching the market of a lot of companies. Even Su Guo is tired of fighting. Su Guo will make a move sooner or later. Even if it's not them, it will be someone else. Anyway, Li Dong has to fight once to show people his courage and ability. "
"Sigh, it seems that doing business is not as easy as we thought. Previously, I saw Li Dong make hundreds of millions and billions of money, so I thought that doing business was not difficult. Who would have thought that it would be like this? "
Zhou Yue said unhappily, "Nonsense, if money is so easy to make, then everyone would be doing business. Li Dong can make money, that's his ability, otherwise he wouldn't be called a legend. "
Qi Fangfang mumbled, "I hope that the legendary Li Dong won't fall this time. Poor Yuhan."
Zhou Yue smiled and didn't say anything else. Who could say for sure about this?
This time, if Li Dong won, he would be reborn from the ashes, and he would definitely go to a higher level.
But if he lost, there would be too many people who would hit him when he was down.
His previous opponents and enemies would probably not let go of this opportunity. At that time, it would be hard to say if Li Dong could withstand it.
…
Jiangbei.
Sun Tao hurried into Li Dong's office and said with a serious face, "General Manager Li, there are some changes in Lu Province. Jia Yue seems to have some small movements recently, and the local Huarun Vanguard and Suguo also have some movements. I'm afraid the battle line will be stretched."
Li Dong was not surprised at all. In Jinling, Suguo could not take him down in a short time, so they would naturally choose to cooperate.
Not only in Lu Province, but also in other places in Sunan.
Now that there was another change in Lu Province, if it was dragged on, the battle line would probably be stretched.
Looking at the map, Li Dong asked, "What about Hongkelong in Gan Province?"
"There is not much movement in Gan Province. Huarun has no influence there, so it is better for Hongkelong and us to share the market than three. Even if we are driven away, Huarun will take the opportunity to enter. Hongkelong is not stupid. "
"That's good. Did the other foreign supermarkets in East China respond?"
"No, they will not fight at this time. They can't wait for us to fight to the death. Originally, the foreign enterprises were almost driven out of the East China region by us. If Huarun had not suddenly turned hostile … "
Sun Tao said with some annoyance, "They say Ma Jialiang is so and so, but I think it is just so-so! The old man still believes in the policy of defending against foreign aggression. If he doesn't turn hostile, we will continue to cooperate with Huarun Vanguard and Suguo, and it is very likely that we will drive all foreign groups out in the next two years! At that time, we will close the door and fight to the death. I will accept it! But now, we let those guys take advantage of us. Even if we win this time, the loss is not small, and I am afraid that we will not be able to stop the foreign invasion in the end. "
Li Dong said with a smile, "It's normal. What Ma Jialiang wants is to get rid of us first when there are still foreign investors. If they really wait until the foreign enterprises are killed and then turn hostile, then they will not have the advantage at that time. Now, they take advantage of my internal and external troubles to kick me out first, and then it will be easier to clean up the foreign enterprises than us. "
Sun Tao still said with some reluctance, "He has been using the slogan of defending national brands all day long. I used to admire him when I was at Carrefour. Now … Humph! "
"They are enough for the national brands. Who asked us to use the same slogan? It is destined that sooner or later, we will turn hostile."
Li Dong did not continue this topic. He turned back to the main topic and said, "Don't worry about Lu Province. As long as we win in Sunan, other places will be quiet. In addition, we have to win easily and beautifully. Otherwise, if the loss is too big, these people will not be able to suppress it. "
"But now we can barely maintain the situation in Jinling, and even if we are in a stalemate, we will lose more. Unless … "Sun Tao suddenly asked," Is there any news from Mr. Chen? "
Li Dong said with a smile, "Not yet. It has been almost 20 days since he left on the 18th of last month. If there is no news at all, I will not let him continue."
"Then …" Sun Tao saw Li Dong smiling happily, his face first showed surprise, then joy appeared on his face. He said, "Did the two companies agree?"
"No."
As soon as Li Dong said this, Sun Tao's face fell. Seeing this, Li Dong smiled and continued, "Not two companies. There is still some trouble in Changkelong. Yong An has taken over."
"Really!"
Sun Tao was overjoyed and said, "So fast? How much did Mr. Chen pay? How did the two sides negotiate? Is it a full acquisition, a shareholding, or a controlling stake? "
"Full acquisition. Yong An is asking for an exorbitant price. Dozens of shops dare to ask me for 1 billion." Li Dong said with a gloomy expression. Usually, he would consider asking for 800 million, let alone 1 billion.
But at this juncture, he was losing tens of millions every day. If it dragged on, there would even be signs of collapse. He had to accept an extra one or two hundred million.
Putting aside the anger in his heart, Li Dong exhaled and said, "But the good thing is that this money can wait until next year to pay in installments. This is also the only advantage that Mr. Chen fought for for us.
You immediately arrange to secretly transfer some elites to take over Yong An.
Be fast. Don't change the cards first. Wait until Yong An is integrated, then see if Mr. Chen can take over Changkelong. Once Changkelong is taken over, we will change the cards at the same time.
At that time, we will destroy all the markets of Su Guo outside of Jinling. I want to see how long Ma Jialiang can last in Jinling.
Even if he can persist, will Huarun Resources let him continue?
This guy was not on good terms with the headquarters of Huarun Resources before. Later, Chen Lang came Far away. Many people in the headquarters of Huarun Resources blamed him.
He started a war in the Sunan and suffered heavy losses. I think this time he should step down and go home to retire! "
In the past, Li Dong admired Ma Jialiang very much. But now, he wanted to hammer this old man to death.
Because he had really bet most of his assets in this bloody war.
Moreover, if the stalemate continued, it would be difficult for Li Dong to hold on.
Sun Tao hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, then I will arrange it immediately. By the way, why don't I bring more people over? As long as Mr. Chen takes over Changkelong, I will immediately send people over. This will save more time. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "Do you really believe that he can take over Changkelong?"
Sun Tao said seriously, "It's not that I am belittling myself, but compared to Mr. Chen, we can only be considered juniors. When I was the deputy general manager of Carrefour in the provincial capital, he was already the CEO of Huarun Resources, which is seven or eight ranks higher than me. Moreover, even Carrefour is very afraid of Mr. Chen. The industries under the Bailian Group are too loose. Even Su Guo in Huarun Resources has to listen to Mr. Chen at the critical moment. Compared to Bailian, Huarun Resources is actually the number one supermarket chain in the country. Even the world's retail giants are afraid of him. I believe that he can do what others can't. "
Li Dong couldn't help but say, "Don't be too modest. The two of us can run Faraway Supermarket to this point, and we are not worse than anyone else. Mr. Chen has his advantages, and you also have yours. The reason why we can successfully take over Yongan is that the two sides have talked for a long time before. Mr. Chen has a full understanding of their weaknesses and situations. "
"That's also very great." Sun Tao continued.
Li Dong rolled his eyes. I am comforting you, do you understand?
In the end, you admitted defeat. What am I comforting you for?
Too lazy to continue comforting him, Li Dong continued, "Let's not talk about this first. Since you trust him so much, then bring more people over. Pay attention to keeping a low profile. If the news is leaked at this time, it will quickly arouse the other party's vigilance."
This kind of industry merger was difficult to hide for a long time.
However, Li Dong didn't need too long. As long as Yongan was reluctantly taken over, it would be enough.
Sun Tao hurriedly nodded. This matter didn't need Li Dong to say, he also knew to keep it a secret.
Now, except for the two of them in the group, even Yuan Chengdao didn't know what Chen Lang was doing.
Although everyone was very curious about what Chen Lang was doing, no matter how many people speculated, very few people could guess where Chen Lang went.
After all, this time Chen Lang didn't bring anyone with him. He went to Sunan alone.
It wasn't appropriate to say that he went alone. The negotiation team that helped Li Dong acquire Time also followed, but the other party was an outsider, so they wouldn't notice them at this time.
After saying this, Li Dong called Zhang Mingduo and Wang Yue, telling them to pay attention to the situation.
At this moment, other than Sunan, Li Dong didn't want to rashly start a war. He tried to restrain himself.
Once he took down Sunan, everything would be easy.
Although he suffered heavy losses now, once he defeated Su Guo and took over the Sunan market, Li Dong would definitely make a lot of money.
Making money was a small matter. Defeating Su Guo head-on, that kind of honor and reputation was not a problem of money.
At that time, Faraway Supermarket would probably be on par with Huarun, Bailian, and the others, and completely enter the top ranks, instead of being regarded as a new brand.
