Chapter 869 Get up Wherever You Fall!
"Longhua recently had a debt of more than 2 billion coming due.
According to past practice, Longhua can delay for a while.
When spring comes and several of their communities open for sale, the money can be repaid, and the bank won't pursue it too much.
But now, I think even if the bank is willing, some people are not willing. "
After Shen Qian finished speaking, Li Dong smiled and said, "It should be like this, but Xu Shengzhe is really ruthless."
Shen Qian sighed softly: "He is ruthless, otherwise why do you think Hu Xiaorui keeps calling him a traitor?"
Li Dong laughed, and said again: "However, this matter is not easy. If Xu Jianghua comes forward, considering his relationship with the bank, there may not be any way."
Shen Qian sneered and said, "Relationship? Tens of millions can talk about relationship with you, billions, how can there be any relationship at all.
What's more, Xu Shengzhe would not have thought of this. I suspect that he may secretly provide some materials to the bank.
He is the chairman of Longhua, and he knows Longhua's situation best. If he exposes some of Longhua's shortcomings, the bank should not be scared to death.
Now there are large areas of bad debts in banks all over the country, and how many senior executives in the financial system have been sent to prison. Everyone was shocked.
Once Longhua felt that Longhua could not pay off his debts, the bank turned around faster than anyone else. "
Li Dong agreed: "It's very likely, but this guy hasn't asked me for money recently, so he's not afraid that he won't be able to get back the money from the stock market, so he won't be able to be the savior?"
As he said that, Li Dong said gloomyly again: "You said, why don't I just blackmail his money!"
Shen Qian laughed and said: "You treat him as a fool, hack his money, and you will not have a good life."
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I won't give it to him, but just find some excuses and delay him for ten days and a half months.
At this time, he can't come up with money to save the market, how about I come to be a savior? "
"You want to control Longhua?" Shen Qian frowned and said, "Even if you take down all the minority shareholders, Xu and his son still hold 60% of the shares..."
"Don't forget, there is Xu Rulong." Li Dong said with a smile: "Xu Rulong is willing to be kicked out like this?"
"Xu Jianghua may accept his fate, after all, he is his son, although he is partial to the eldest son.
But when the time comes, the old man will not just sit back and watch Longhua fall into the hands of others.
But Xu Rulong is different, once Long Hua is really captured by Xu Shengzhe, he will get nothing.
At this time, when Xu Shengzhe had no money to make a comeback, we secretly encouraged Xu Rulong, for example, asking him to convince his father that we would make him the general manager or something.
Or reserve some shares for him and join the company's board of directors. Xu Rulong may be willing to grab this life-saving straw at this time.
You said, will we be successful in this way?
It doesn't take much, as long as Xu Rulong can convince him to transfer 11% of the shares, hehe..."
When Shen Qian heard his laughter, she couldn't help but frowned and said, "Don't laugh so wickedly, it's not as simple as you think.
Besides, there are many small shareholders in Longhua, and many people are close to Xu Shengzhe. Can you guarantee that you can win all of them?
Well, even if it is possible, how much money do we have to win Longhua now? "
Li Dong said disapprovingly: "I have the money, and at this time, whether it's Dongyu Real Estate or the stock market, I can allocate part of the funds.
Winning Longhua is more cost-effective than earning billions.
Longhua is in a crisis, and its value will definitely be underestimated. In addition, Xu Shengzhe has contributed to the flames, as well as the double blow of the current financial crisis and debt maturity.
Longhua, which was originally worth more than 20 billion yuan, may have plummeted and won for several billion yuan. "
This kind of thing is not impossible, regardless of the valuation of some companies that are usually tens of billions or tens of billions.
But when it comes to this kind of time, the valuation is useless.
It doesn't matter what you say, it is the bank, the evaluation agency, and the social recognition that have the final say.
Just like Longhua's development in Xincheng, according to Longhua Group's own assessment, the value may reach tens of billions.
However, in the hands of the bank and other people, tens of billions, just kidding, giving you a rating of 3 billion will be worthy of you.
After all, the new city has not yet been opened at this time, and the various industries in Longhua are, strictly speaking, unfinished.
It's just some unfinished projects, and it's worthy of you to give you a few billion reviews.
As for whether people in Longhua agree or not, it doesn't matter if you can't pay off your debts, then it's not up to you.
Moreover, at this time, it is easy to be labeled as insolvent. Once this happens, Longhua can only choose to go bankrupt, and no matter how many shares are in the hands of shareholders, it will be empty.
Therefore, sometimes when a company is about to go bankrupt, you may get the shares worth hundreds of millions the day before without spending a penny.
Shareholders see no hope, just hope to get rid of this trouble as soon as possible, which is possible.
Many times, in the financial market, you can see some 1 yuan token sale of shares.
Are the shareholders and the company stupid?
Of course not, although the law stipulates that limited liability companies are bankrupt, and shareholders do not need to bear additional liabilities.
The key is that it does not include some private debts, what is private debt, such as borrowing money from private equity institutions.
Does an enterprise like Longhua have no private debt?
Bank debt can be bad, but these debts can't be bad.
At that time, these shareholders don't know how much trouble they will have. In order to avoid trouble, someone is willing to take over, and they wish to give it to others for nothing.
Seeing Li Dong's idea of Longhua, Shen Qian pondered for a moment and said, "You really want to do this?"
Li Dong may indeed become the final big winner by doing so, but in this way, Li Dong, Longhua's shareholders and the Xu family have become endless enemies.
For the sake of tens of billions of assets, it's nothing to turn your face. At that time, people like the Xu family may wish to kill Li Dong.
It's not that Xu Shengzhe can't do this kind of thing, he calculated in every possible way and finally gave Li Dong the top spot, can he be willing?
It doesn't matter if Li Dong takes a sip of soup, anyway, Xu Shengzhe is standing in front.
The other shareholders also hated Xu Shengzhe if they wanted to, and Li Dong could watch the show if he picked up a bargain.
It is really not that simple to control Longhua.
An old real estate company like Longhua, how many interests are involved in it, is different from the newly rising Yuanfang, and the interest chain in it is extremely complicated.
Li Dong moved Longhua, and there were already a bunch of foreign enemies at the stake, which is likely to drag Yuanfang down in the end.
Seeing that Shen Qian disagreed, Li Dongchang let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's not that I really want to do this, it's just that I'm a little tempted.
I understand the troubles involved, but seeing a big piece of fat in front of me, I don't want to take a bite. "
"Fat meat is easy to get greasy, I think it's better not to. Sometimes 1+1 is not necessarily greater than 2, and Longhua is really in our hands, so it may not be able to play such a big role.
Even if you earn billions or tens of billions on Longhua, the price you pay may far exceed these. "
Li Dong nodded, and regretfully said: "That can only make Xu Shengzhe cheaper, I'd better take a bite and withdraw.
Leaving aside Longhua, how is Taobao going? "
"Many merchants have stopped operating in East China, but their Taobao Mall is still insisting.
Compared with those chaotic individual merchants, Taobao Mall has Ali's full support, and it will be fine for a while. "
Li Dong said disapprovingly: "It's just chasing the end, what is the biggest advantage of Taobao? It's not the Taobao mall that they just launched a few days ago, but their huge individual merchants.
Compared to Taobao Mall, can it be compared to our Yuanfang Mall?
Our mall has accumulated a lot of fame. Isn’t it said on the Internet that you can buy brands far away, and only go to Taobao if they are cheap.
Now Taobao’s self-employed are out of business in East China, and it’s useless to expect the mall to be strong.
I guess, the old horse must be jumping with anger now. "
...
Lin'an.
Ma Yun didn't jump.
In the conference room.
Ma Yun stared at the ceiling in a daze, and the executives next to him were all shocked.
The heavy snow has lasted for nearly a week, and their extravagant hopes that the heavy snow will stop have all been shattered.
Now, Taobao's business in East China has decreased by 30%!
What is the concept of 30%!
In the past, in East China, their daily sales could reach more than 60 million, and in the peak sales season, it was more than 100 million.
In the heavy snow season like now, when consumers rely on online shopping the most, it is not surprising that sales reached 200 million.
But now, their business in East China has been continuously compressed, leaving only a share of less than 50 million.
This is not the peak sales season, nor is it affected by heavy snow.
If calculated, at least lost more than half of the market share.
It's only been a few days, and the defeat is like a mountain, which is particularly obvious on Taobao.
After a long time, Ma Yun came back to his senses, lowered his head and asked in doubt: "Is it true that third-party online shopping platforms won't work?"
The reason why Taobao suffers this time is that it suffers from a large number of individual merchants.
If all follow the mall model, the manufacturers will deliver the goods uniformly, and the logistics will not be unable to support the large-scale business.
But it is those self-employed people from all over the world that put Taobao in crisis.
Everyone's distribution is too scattered, and the logistics companies are so scattered that they don't want to go to those places to pick up the parcels. Not to mention the trouble, they don't make much money.
The probability of problems with e-commerce companies such as Taobao Mall, Yuanfang Mall, and JD.com is not high.
Especially JD.com, they have not yet built a self-operated logistics system.
But even so, they can rely on their current meager self-owned logistics system to be self-sufficient.
Only Taobao, the leader in the industry, the leader in China, and the leader in Asia, had problems at this time.
What went wrong was the huge group of individual merchants that Ma Yun had always been proud of, which made him doubt himself.
Is your own development path really right?
Just when Ma Yun was puzzled, an executive sitting next to him said in a concentrated voice: "Chairman, there is nothing wrong with our plan!
Daxue is just a special case and cannot represent all.
When we defeated eBay and all competitors, we relied on our huge group of individual merchants.
The reason for the current problem is to return to the essence of the problem.
All these are actually logistics problems. If our logistics system can be the same as that of Yuanfang, this kind of thing will not happen.
Logistics companies such as SF Express and Santong are all unfamiliar white-eyed wolves.
If all of our merchants are under the responsibility of Cainiao, will we refuse at this time?
Will not!
Therefore, it is also correct to develop self-operated logistics.
In the early stage, we were confused by Li Dong. It was undoubtedly wise for the chairman to decide to establish Cainiao Logistics.
Now, it is one aspect that Cainiao has not formed combat effectiveness, and the other is the essential problem of Cainiao, which still relies on several other logistics companies.
Chairman, what we need to consider now is to create our own Cainiao that really belongs to us, not a Cainiao relying on SF Express, three links and one service! "
As soon as these words came out, many people nodded in agreement.
Immediately, another person said: "Chairman, I agree with what Mr. Zhang said.
Our Taobao model is right, and the mall model is also right, including the self-operated logistics model.
But we were too anxious, eager to form a combat force, and eager to compete with Yuanfang Logistics, so we introduced several other express companies.
And these people may not necessarily have the same heart with us, as can be seen from the outage of several SF Express companies this time.
Tribulations tell people's hearts, this time we have gains and losses, at least let us have a clearer road ahead.
If the East China market is lost, it will be lost, not all of it is lost, at least half of it can be kept.
We learned a lot from a pit, didn’t we grab the market back from eBay at the beginning, when we were founded, eBay occupied 80% of the domestic market share, so what?
Chairman, Ali's way is right, and Taobao's way is also right. The only thing wrong is that time is not on our side! "
Ma Yun is not an ordinary person. The reason why he questioned himself earlier was that he failed too abruptly this time.
As soon as the employees said it, Ma Yun returned to his original state, and said with sharp eyes: "Not bad! Our path is correct!"
“When Cainiao was established, I thought it would save a lot of costs and open up the market quickly.
But now, I know I was wrong.
It's not that Ali is wrong, it's not that Taobao is wrong, it's my own fault.
The success of the past few years has made me a little carried away, making me ignore the most fundamental point.
Only the power that belongs to oneself is one's own, and other external forces can only be borrowed, not relied on.
This East China strategy, we lost, it’s okay, failure is not terrible, as long as we know why we failed.
If we are afraid, we are afraid. We lost, but we don’t know how to lose in the end. This is terrible.
Where we fall, we have to get up from where.
Cainiao Logistics will continue to invest in the establishment of our own team. Of course, we don't need to kick out the other companies now.
When we have scale and capital, it will not be too late to kick them out. "
Seeing that Ma Yun had regained his fighting spirit, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Ma Yun is the soul of Ali. If he has doubts and vetoes, how will he go on the next road?
The opponent Li Dong in the distance can only be defeated by the chairman.
Everyone seems to have returned to a few years ago. At that time, Taobao had just been established, and there was a mountain of eBay in front of it.
However, the final victory still belongs to them.
It was just a failure caused by heavy snow. They didn't believe it. Did heavy snow assist Li Dong every day?
As long as Ali exerts its strength, sooner or later it will defeat the distance like eBay!
