Chapter 1272: Successor of Gome

Bill, who was blown by Li Dong, couldn't bear it, but if he couldn't bear it, he had to continue talking.

As a result, a few minutes later, Li Dong got up again and said with a smile: "Mr. Bill, I have a meeting to attend tonight, why don't we talk about it today?

As I said before, I am very efficient.

There is a big difference between the two of us. If we go on talking like this, there will actually be no results. It will have no meaning other than delaying each other's time.

I surrendered 14 million shares, not joking with Mr. Bill.

This is my final decision. It is impossible to add another dollar. If you can agree, sign the contract immediately.

If you can't agree, then this negotiation can be over. "

Bill was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood, and he said helplessly, "Li, you are the worst entrepreneur I have ever seen, and you are also the best at negotiating.

We've only met twice, back and forth, and not for long.

I think we can continue to discuss in depth..."

Like this kind of negotiation, is it long to meet seven or eight times and talk for several months?

Not long at all!

Fortunately, Li Dong completely blocked the road this time.

If not, get it right away.

Otherwise, there is no need to talk about it later.

If Sun Tao and the others were to negotiate, the matter could actually be turned around, and it could be seen as a means of bargaining.

But Li Dong, as the head of Yuanfang, is one of the most famous entrepreneurs in China.

Since he said so, if he changed his words again, he would slap himself in the face. An ordinary entrepreneur would not do such a shameful thing.

At this point, there are actually not many choices for Damo.

In other words, there is no choice at all.

This time I disagreed, not to mention that Weibo shares could not be obtained, and the subsequent IPO underwriting would be 100% useless.

As for Weibo shares, Morgan Stanley can be said to be determined to win.

Also, if they didn't agree this time, they probably didn't even have the chance to join in the third round of financing. This would be a huge loss for Morgan Stanley.

Weibo is now gaining momentum, opening up channels in Europe and expanding its territory in Asia. Both South America and North America are competing with Titter and Facebook in the market.

In addition to the underdeveloped Internet industry in Da Lao Hei, Weibo is making inroads in other regions.

If this continues, Weibo is even expected to surpass Facebook.

Is Morgan Stanley willing to give up such a good project with great potential?

After all, Gome is only a retail company in Huaxia, not the largest retail company, and it is in trouble now. If Li Dong didn't want to enter, Morgan Stanley would not have hesitated at all.

Seeing Bill chattering endlessly, Li Dong smiled and said, "Mr. Bill, for me, once or twice is the norm.

Now that a decision has been made, what I like to do is to act quickly.

If we have to talk for a few months, when the time comes, there will be some unexpected situations, and no one can guarantee it.

Once Gome discovers my intentions, it will cause me a lot of trouble, so what I need is a decisive battle, you should understand this.

If my plan goes bankrupt because of your delay, then everything I'm talking about now is nonsense and meaningless.

Also, I am not a big-hearted person, and Dalmo is powerful, so I can do nothing to you.

It can be said that there will be no Morgan Stanley in the financing and listing of the properties under Yuanfang. This is not a threat, but just my personal attitude. Mr. Bill can just listen to it as a joke.

At present, Yuanfang Mall, Wanka, pp, Yuanfang Video...these projects are all doing well.

To go public, the United States is the natural choice. Going public in the United States will maximize our interests, and when we get there, we need your help.

Now, Damo obviously doesn't care about our friendship, I'm sorry..."

Li Dong looked regretful, and Bill looked toothache.

I said you didn't care about our friendship, and now you're talking about it.

But what Li Dong said is also true. There are many industries in Yuanfang Technology, and they are all of high quality. If they really want to raise funds and go public, Morgan Stanley must be interested.

Li Dong said that he is not big-minded,

Bill didn't know much about it before, but now he thinks it's absolutely true!

For the benefit of this time, give up the long-term benefit?

He is sure that if we continue the discussion, 15 million shares should still be worthwhile, after all, Li Dong is in urgent need now.

But if you really want to quarrel with Li Dong completely because of these 1 million shares, I'm afraid there will be no chance of cooperation in the future.

A one-shot deal, that also wins.

For entrepreneurs like Li Dong who have mastered a large number of high-quality industries, everyone likes to take a long time to catch big fish and cut meat slowly, which is not necessarily worse than it is now.

Bill sighed, and said helplessly, "Li, how about it, I'll communicate with the headquarters now.

From my point of view, I actually hope that this cooperation can be negotiated.

In Huaxia, we need friends like you.

But before I came to Huaxia, the minimum bottom line given by the headquarters was 15 million shares. This was a decision made by the top management, and it is difficult for me to change it alone.

Now, I can only try it and see how the headquarters responds..."

Li Dong jumped forward with joy and hugged Big Nose again, and said with a smile: "Bill, don't be modest, I believe you can do it.

If this cooperation can be reached, you will be my best friend in the future! "

When he said this, Li Dong himself knew it was hypocritical.

Of course, big noses are also hypocritical.

What is the bottom line of 15 million shares, what is the request for instructions from the headquarters, who has never used this kind of routine?

Since he led the team to Huaxia, it means that he has the right to make decisions.

And the difference is only 100,000 shares, which is really not much for an international investment bank like Morgan Stanley.

Isn't Bill's purpose just to let Li Dong read well.

Li Dong is also satisfied with him, I accept this, and you will be my best friend from now on.

As for how good it is, if a good friend stabs me twice, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Li Dong has always felt that it is meaningless to talk about friendship with people from investment banks.

When you can't bring them benefits, they can turn faces faster than books, so there is no real friendship.

Of course, the possibility of deep personal acquaintances is not ruled out, but Huaxia has not finished making friends, so Li Dong has no time to make friends with these capitalists.

In front of Li Dong, Bill started calling the headquarters.

Li Dong didn't know who he was communicating with, the translator wanted to translate for him, but Li Dong waved his hand, there was no need to listen to these routines.

The final result would not be beyond his expectations. Bill dared to call face to face. If this favor could not be sold, it would be a big joke.

As a result, it did not meet Li Dong's expectations.

As soon as he hung up the phone, Bill smiled with relief: "Congratulations, Li, the headquarters has agreed!"

Li Dong smiled and said: "Congratulations, gratifying, this is called a win-win situation.

I also have to congratulate Mr. Bill. This time, Mr. Bill has won a lot of benefits for Morgan Stanley. If it were me, with such a great staff, I would at least get a bonus of tens of millions of dollars!

Mr. Bill, you have to treat me to dinner after you go back to receive the bonus. "

The big nose is powerless to complain, can you not blow it?

Tens of millions of dollars in bonuses, if you can give tens of millions of yuan, I will lose.

This is the second time that Bill has dealt with Li Dong. After only two times, he completely remembered this young Chinese entrepreneur with an extremely strong personal style.

Once the conditions are fulfilled, nothing else matters.

Regarding the situation on Weibo, Bill dare not say that he understands better than Li Dong, but he definitely does not understand.

As one of the second-round financing parties, they are indeed very clear about Weibo's situation.

As for Li Dong, he was also very clear about the situation in Gome.

Both parties understand the target object of the transaction, and the conditions have been negotiated. The signing is actually a process issue.

Draw up the contract, ask someone to notarize it, ask a third party for custody and storage...

These procedures were well prepared for Li Dong when he signed with Beverly last time.

People, it will be here soon.

Witnessed by the lawyers of both parties, Li Dong and Bill signed contracts on behalf of the two companies. This kind of thing does not need the boss of Morgan Stanley to come personally, Bill has the authorization.

By the time the contract was signed, it was past eight o'clock in the evening.

After signing, Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief, got up and shook hands with Bill, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, so I won't keep Mr. Bill for dinner.

Next time, next time I have a chance, I will definitely treat you.

I've been busy recently, so Mr. Bill will take care of you. "

Sun Tao and the others standing beside Li Dong hesitated to speak, their faces full of helplessness.

Boss, can you not embarrass us in the distance!

It's just a meal, so there's no need to pick it up.

But Bill didn't care much about it. As a mercenary, eating is a waste of time. It was necessary to negotiate with Li Dong before.

Now that an agreement has been reached, it doesn't matter if they eat or not.

And he has to go back to China immediately and report to the headquarters.

Li Dong won the Gome shares in the hands of Morgan Stanley this time, and there is almost no difficulty in taking down JP Morgan Chase next time.

In the future, the business situation in China may change drastically.

Some of their investment banks' strategies in China need to be changed.

For some enterprises, those that should be exited should be exited, and those that should be held should be held.

For example, some retail companies can actually withdraw. Li Dong is too strong. Even if they invest, even if they defeat Li Dong in the end, the pay and return are not necessarily proportional.

Instead, it is better to invest in other companies.

The two exchanged a few polite words, and Bill left quickly with the people.

There are still quite a few people at the hotel, and it has been delayed for a long time today, and it will be of no benefit to both parties if they stay any longer.

...

As soon as Bill left, Li Dong said with a sigh of relief: "The family is settled, and JPMorgan Chase should be there soon."

Morgan Stanley agrees, and JP Morgan hardly disagrees.

Of course, there are inevitably some additional conditions, such as the lead underwriter, such as the right of priority.

These things are all side issues and can be discussed.

But in general, other aspects should be fine.

Sun Tao also relaxed a lot, nodded and said: "I also think it is not difficult, and the third-party agency has also negotiated to purchase part of the equity on our behalf.

It's just getting started now, it may take a while. "

Speaking of which, Sun Tao continued: "The Hong Kong Stock Exchange has news in the afternoon, and the transaction has been approved.

Tomorrow, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will make an announcement, and Gome will also call. As soon as the announcement is made tomorrow, a general meeting of shareholders will be held the day after tomorrow to discuss the reorganization of the board of directors.

Mr. Li, should we delay the resolution on the reorganization of the board of directors?

After all, we won these shares, and now we reorganize the board of directors, and then reorganize in a short period of time later, which is a bit troublesome. "

Li Dong shook his head and said, "No need to worry about it.

Reorganizing the board of directors now can paralyze the opponent.

Once we procrastinate, their energy is not on it, and they may think of other things.

First let them make a fuss at the shareholders' meeting, grab power and profit, and relax their vigilance.

In the later stage, we established a winning opportunity in one fell swoop, and overthrowing the board of directors is just a matter of one sentence.

Of course, if you want to overthrow it, you need at least two-thirds of the holdings, but if you become the absolute controlling shareholder, the board of directors is just a decoration, and it won't cause us too much trouble. "

The board of directors said that it has rights, and it still has some rights.

Saying that you have no rights, in fact, you have no rights at all.

Some resolutions, according to the company's articles of association, must be approved by more than two-thirds of the directors before they can be considered passed.

Or at the general meeting of shareholders, mandatory decisions can only be made by holding more than two-thirds of the shares.

However, this kind of thing rarely happens. Shareholders who have controlled more than 51% of the shares have rarely seen policies influenced by small shareholders.

Therefore, Li Dong is not too concerned about the reorganization of the board of directors.

Seeing that Li Dong didn't care about these things, Sun Tao said again: "Then who will we send to Gome?"

Now that it has decided to join Gome, this board of directors will definitely have people from far away, and they are executive directors, not non-executive directors.

As little as one person, as many as two people.

And this director is likely to be the helm of Gome in the future.

It is impossible for Li Dong to stay in Gome every day. Who will take over Gome next is a big question.

Hearing Sun Tao's question, Li Dong was a little hesitant, and said after a while: "After all, Gome is not a small business, but an existence that can be compared with Yuanfang City.

I am not at ease with the average person at the helm.

Moreover, people's hearts will be uncertain at that time, and the Huang family will be difficult to turn around at any time. Those who go to the United States to take the helm must be steady, ruthless, and have a strong ability to respond when the opportunity arises..."

Li Dong put forward many demands, and the more Sun Tao listened to them, the more he felt that the demands were too high.

There are not many distant places that really meet the requirements Li Dong said.

Even he, Sun Tao, was a little reluctant.

After Li Dong finished speaking, Sun Tao showed distress and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to find such a candidate..."

Seeing this, Li Dong looked at Qi Yunna next to him, raised his eyebrows and said, "Yunna, are you sure?"

"ah?"

Qi Yunna was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses, and quickly waved her hands and said, "President Li, I can't do it, this burden is too heavy.

Gome is ten times the size of the current North China retail branch!

I can't even do what I want here in North China, let alone Gome. "

Li Dong hated iron but said: "I have no ambition! Forget it, I know you are afraid, if it's really not possible, I'll call Wang Yue over!"

As vice president, Wang Yue is now in charge of logistics and real estate business.

Really transferred to take charge of Gome, it can be regarded as demoted.

However, the meaning is different. When Gome enters a distant place for the first time, it needs a strong general to sit in charge.

Being able to be spotted by Li Dong and transferred to Gome is actually more important than the vice president.

When Sun Tao heard that he wanted to call Wang Yue over, he couldn't help asking, "Will the people in Gome be vigilant?"

At this stage, Wang Yuelai's attention is obviously too much.

Li Dong shook his head and said: "It is necessary to enter at this stage, be vigilant, and it is enough to see that we attach importance to it.

And when Wang Yue came, some neutral factions would make a choice, and they would no longer be wary and vacillating.

Take the opportunity to seize some rights and reduce the living space of other small shareholders.

At that time, it will be much easier for third-party organizations to discuss the matter of shares.

When they react and the vigilance is over, our business is almost over.

At this time, it is the best choice to straighten out the internal affairs first and suppress the internal affairs in the fastest time, especially the Huang family and the Yongle family.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to let Wang Yue enter after we complete the merger and acquisition.

Today, time is more important to us than anything else. "

Seeing this, Sun Tao had no choice but to say: "Then we have to seek Mr. Wang's opinion."

"It's not a big problem. She has already said that she doesn't want to stay with you, an older bachelor, lest you get her idea and just send her to the capital to be with Yunna."

Sun Tao's face was full of black lines, if Wang Yue said this, he would cut off his head and kick it as a ball!

Li Dong, as always, never sounds too reliable.

Having said that, Li Dong, who was 18 years old back then, seemed to be more reliable than now, at least he wasn't so foolish!
