Chapter 996 Your Sadness, My Happiness

After shopping, Li Dong's car arrived at the gate of Lin'an Community.

Yuan Xue sat in the car and said softly with a smile, "You really don't want me to go to the hotel?"

Li Dong said with a firm attitude: "No, I told you, I'm not that kind of person!"

Yuan Xue chuckled, but secretly cursed Yumu's head in her heart!

Is it not obvious enough for me to suggest?

I was planning to go, but once this guy said it, and then I said it myself, it would be really shameless.

Glancing at him, Yuan Xue stopped talking, opened the door and got out of the car.

When she got out of the car, Li Dong also got out of the car and sent it downstairs, Li Dong said bluntly: "Why don't I go up and stay for one night, the hotel is quite expensive..."

"Come up if you're brave enough."

Yuan Xue gave him a white look, snorted and went upstairs.

Li Dong, who was standing downstairs, touched his chin, and said with some melancholy: "I'm so cheap!"

How could he not understand what Yuan Xue said just now.

But it's come to this point, and he took her to the hotel to have sex, isn't that a slap in the face.

A little depressed, he watched Yuan Xue go upstairs, Li Dong stood for a while before turning and leaving.

After getting in the car, before arriving at the hotel, Li Dong's cell phone vibrated.

I opened it and took a look. It was a text message: "Don't go to messy places!"

Li Dong couldn't help smiling, and replied, "I'm not so hungry."

After a while, the text message rang again, "You can use your hands."

Li Dong's face was full of black lines, and he directly connected the phone. As soon as the call was connected, Li Dong said angrily: "Stop teasing me, believe it or not, I will really kill you later!"

There was a burst of crisp laughter on the phone, Yuan Xue didn't speak, and hung up the phone directly.

Li Dong shook his head and put the phone away.

...

Sleep alone.

The next day, when he woke up, the little brother roared ferociously.

After taking a cold shower, Li Dong finally suppressed the heat in his heart.

Just after taking a shower, the phone on the table rang.

Li Dong looked at the number, it was Qi Yunna calling.

Usually, Qi Yunna would not take the initiative to contact Li Dong if she had nothing to do. Contacting Li Dong meant that there must be something serious.

Li Dong connected the phone, and Qi Yunna on the other side of the phone pondered for a while, and then said in an obscure tone: "Mr. Li, Mr. Huang, I'm afraid something will happen."

"who?"

Li Dong asked subconsciously, and then realized who she was talking about.

As expected, Qi Yunna whispered: "Huang Guangyu."

An accident happened to Lao Huang, Li Dong had expected it a long time ago.

But even Qi Yunna knew about it, Li Dong was still a little surprised and said, "Who did you listen to?"

"I had dinner with someone yesterday, and I heard someone talk about it. It doesn't look like a fake. In addition, the Securities Regulatory Commission has started to investigate the abnormal trading of Sanlian Trading Co., Ltd. stock and Zhongguancun stock.

Plus some previous accusations, and the news disclosed in the magazine at the end of last year.

Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Mr. Huang may not be able to avoid it this time. "

Li Dong frowned slightly and said, "It's so obvious, Huang Guangyu himself didn't move?"

"Yes, I heard that he has been spending money everywhere recently to settle things, but now, who dares to intervene."

"Yes, it's a pity."

Li Dong shook his head, this is actually not the first time this matter has been investigated.

It can be said that Lao Huang is determined this time.

But this is also Lao Huang's own fault. A few years ago, someone started to check his old background, and he settled it all at the beginning.

As a result, it only fueled Lao Huang's arrogance, and he felt that it was nothing more than that.

After that, instead of restraining himself, he took shortcuts one after another.

After coming down several times, even if someone is covering it, it is difficult to suppress this matter.

In 2007 and 2008, Lao Huang made a lot of small moves in the stock market, but then again, Lao Huang cannot be completely blamed.

Since 2006, major banks have stopped lending to Gome. How can we develop and expand without money?

Coupled with the fact that Suning has been fighting against them all the time, Lao Huang was also forced to take risks again and again to raise funds for development.

Now it seems that it has become a well-known thing.

Now that the Olympic Games are approaching, it is not suitable to take down Huang, so as not to cause a large-scale impact.

Once the Olympics are over, presumably things will settle down.

The downfall of Lao Huang is definitely a shock to the business world, and it will also make everyone feel sad.

After all, he was also the richest person, so he fell down like this, who would not be disappointed.

Even Li Dong felt a little embarrassed and wary at this moment.

Yes, now he is the richest man, and his background is not small. Yuan Fang has even been praised by the government's No. 1 and No. 2 bosses.

But these days, nothing can be relied on, and the one who can really rely on is himself.

If someone really gets caught, no one can protect themselves.

Li Dong secretly rejoiced that he should be fine, the only thing that he had some doubts over the past few years was probably the Zhu Hongtao incident back then.

However, the matter was also revealed later. Zhu Hongtao's own butt was not clean, and instead fell into it again. No one died, and the matter was completely over.

And everything else is fine.

Li Dong has dealt with his opponents in the past two years, usually in an aboveboard manner, or by borrowing the power of public opinion.

It may be taboo, but it still holds water in terms of legal principles, so there is no need to worry too much.

After comforting himself for a while, Li Dong said to the phone: "I know about this, you don't have to worry, it has nothing to do with us."

Qi Yunna quickly said: "I'm not worried about us, but Suning.

If Mr. Huang really fell, then Suning would have no one to control him.

Now that we have also entered the field of home appliances, I think it will be a matter of time before we collide with Suning.

Although there is no such sign yet, I think it should not be far away. If Gome is torn apart and the Suning family dominates, it will not be very beneficial to us. "

Suning has grown bigger and bigger in the past two years, especially after winning Dazhong Electric Appliances, and the cooperation with Yuanfang in Beijing and Tianjin, both in scale and influence, are much larger than in the previous life.

If Lao Huang is killed this time, Suning will be even more unstoppable, completely dominating the field of home appliances.

When a company has no rivals in a field, it is definitely a terrible thing.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Suning may develop e-commerce and supermarkets faster. In the end, after defeating companies such as China Resources and Bailian, Taobao and JD.com may be suppressed, and Suning may be created instead.

It's not impossible, it's very likely.

None of the people like Zhang Jindong are weak.

In the previous life, even though Jingdong's development was booming, it could not completely suppress Suning's reputation. When the time comes, it is not impossible to make a turnaround.

In this life, Suning is stronger and pays more attention to the e-commerce field, which is relatively more terrifying.

As soon as Qi Yunna said, Li Dong also reacted, pondered for a moment and said: "I know, I will rest assured about this matter, but don't turn against Suning for now.

After all, we still have a five-year gambling agreement..."

Speaking of this, Li Dong felt as if he had cheated himself.

If the two parties did not have this agreement, it would not be a problem to turn their faces now.

But with this agreement, if Suning's business is severely damaged if they turn their backs, the agreement will not be completed.

In the end, Li Dong had to compensate Suning for the loss.

Li Dong was a little depressed, but at that time he was forced to do nothing. If he did not cooperate with Suning, they would not be able to expand in Beijing and Tianjin, let alone gain a foothold quickly.

It's no use regretting it now.

After talking to Qi Yunna again, Li Dong hung up the phone.

...

July 6th, 10 am.

Carrefour headquarters.

Carrefour's headquarters in Shanghai is located in the Shanghai Stock Exchange Building.

This is the financial center of the Shanghai stock market. The area around Lujiazui is full of high-rise buildings. There are headquarters of major banks everywhere, and some foreign banks have headquarters in Huaxia.

It's not too luxurious to be able to rent an entire floor of the Securities Building here, but it's okay.

Rents in Shanghai are not cheap, especially here.

When Li Dong got off the car, Luo Guowei had already brought people downstairs to wait.

Seeing Li Dong, Luo Guowei smiled reluctantly, feeling a little hard to understand.

It is not the first time that Carrefour has lost. They have lost many times around the world, so Carrefour people can accept failure.

However, this time in Huaxia, the defeat was aggrieved, the defeat was inexplicable, and the defeat was too fast and too fast.

At the beginning of the year, Carrefour was still thriving, with excellent performance in China.

The headquarters is even preparing to continue to increase investment and operate Huaxia as the second largest market.

But who would have expected that in the blink of an eye, Carrefour would lose.

The annual revenue reached 30 billion RMB, which is not a small amount. Luo Guowei even thought, would he be able to achieve the 100 billion RMB revenue target in China?

But now you don't have to think about it anymore, it's useless to think about it.

In just a few months, Carrefour's Huaxia business officially changed hands.

Barely showing a smile, Luo Guowei said hello: "Li, welcome to Carrefour."

Li Dong responded with a smile: "You're welcome, Mr. Luo is always welcome to visit you in the future."

Luo Guowei's old face drooped suddenly, this guy is quite straightforward.

But thinking about the formal signing soon, Luo Guowei didn't bother to refute.

Anyway, I'm leaving, there's no need to compete with this guy, let alone they really lost this time.

A group of people got on the elevator and came to the 25th floor.

At this moment, the headquarters of Carrefour is no longer calm, and it seems a little panicked.

As soon as Li Dong and the others arrived, at the Carrefour headquarters, where the rules are usually strict, there were people looking around from time to time.

Even the usual stern-faced executives, no one came out to scold them today.

It's not just ordinary employees who are worried, but them too.

They are even more worried than the average employee.

Before joining Carrefour, no one expected that today, the boss changed hands and Yuanfang officially took over.

Today, the boss from afar came. Many people felt melancholy when they thought that this would be the future boss.

Of course, there are happy people, but not many.

These people at the headquarters still have a sense of belonging to Carrefour.

Those who really don’t have a sense of belonging left long ago before poaching people from far away, and most of those who are still here have expectations for Carrefour.

The result was to disappoint them. The world's second-ranked retailer actually resold the Huaxia business to Yuanfang.

...

In the conference room.

Li Dong signed his name and stamped his official seal.

What should be discussed, the two sides have already finished talking.

Now it is just fulfilling the last step. For Carrefour, Luo Guowei signed on behalf of Carrefour headquarters.

As for Duran, that guy is about to step down, and he is still fighting at the headquarters, and has no time to come to Huaxia.

Anyway, the agreement and treaty have been negotiated, it doesn't matter if they come or not.

The two parties exchanged contracts, and this tens of billions of mergers and acquisitions was officially concluded.

Li Dong and Luo Guowei shook hands, announcing the end of the era of Carrefour.

Originally, Luo Guowei could still laugh, but at this moment, a sense of sadness suddenly surged in his heart. The tall and mighty man also had red eyes at this moment.

It has been more than two years since I came to China in 2006.

How could he be really indifferent to the little things here.

However, after today, this place no longer belongs to him, nor to Carrefour. Soon, he will leave China with a few French executives to report to France.

It was the shame of his life to return home as a loser.

Suppressing the urge to cry, Luo Guowei invited Li Dong to visit the headquarters. This was the last time he invited Li Dong to visit the headquarters as the president of Huaxia and as the host.

Li Dong, of course, would not refuse.

Anyway, he has already won, and what he has to do at this time is to wait for these people to leave silently. As for the sovereignty, there is no need to declare it in a hurry.

The nearly 4,000-square-meter office area is divided into large and small offices and rooms.

Luo Guowei didn't miss any one, and started to visit from the first one.

Every time they entered an office, the employees would stop their work, some would be silent, some would cry, and some would remain indifferent.

...

Li Dong was a few steps behind Luo Guowei, Chen Lang said in a low voice: "Luo Guowei's prestige is still good, he seems to be not in charge these few years, but Carrefour's performance is booming, and the employees all admire him.

pity……"

Li Dong glanced at him, and said angrily: "Is this a pity, a hero cherishes a hero?"

Chen Lang laughed and said: "That's not true. It's a pity that I blocked the way far away, and I can only end in sadness after all."

"This is said, as if I am the villain."

Li Dong made a joke, and at this time, Luo Guowei also saw it almost.

Gradually, many more employees appeared in the corridor.

The employees all looked at this side, and Luo Guowei said loudly with a smile on his face: "Guys, thank you for giving me the last dignity!

I'm leaving and going back to my homeland.

In the future, under the leadership of Yuanfang Li, I believe that you can do better and do better! "

The applause sounded quickly, Luo Guowei smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this, Li Dong asked Chen Lang, "Isn't this guy leaving today?"

"No, he will not resign until after the 15th, when he is announced in front of the media."

"Then he made it look like he was going to fuck off today. I didn't expect foreigners to be quite sensational."

Chen Lang couldn't help laughing, compared to Luo Guowei and the others, people from far away would not be sad.

The sadness of others is the source of their happiness.

The acquisition of Carrefour can be said to be a turning point for Yuanfang Supermarket to completely establish its retail dominance.

Otherwise, waiting for the distant place to develop by itself, the second may be easy, but I don’t know when I want to hit the first.

Now as long as Carrefour's resources are integrated, it is possible to catch up with Bailian, Gome, and Suning immediately and become the real industry leader. Who would not be happy in the bottom of their hearts.

As for being sad, it's only the losers. Chen Lang only hoped that such a day would not happen in the distance.
