Chapter 903 Shrinking Wealth

After the annual meeting in the distance, the Internet exploded again.

There has been a lot of news about the distance these days.

A few days ago, Li Dong first won the capital land at a sky-high price, and then it was rumored that someone suppressed Li Dong and forced Li Dong to apologize publicly.

As soon as the news of Li Dong's apology passed, the head of Yuanfang Technology left. As the most influential Internet companies in China, there are many people who pay attention to Yuanfang Technology.

The replacement of the chairman of Yuanfang Technology is not a big news.

Before everyone digested the information, Li Dong fired again at Yuanfang's annual meeting.

The cannon fired this time is really big!

Chinese people like to gossip, especially news related to the "richest man" and "number one", and everyone is more enthusiastic about it.

At this year's annual meeting in the distance, Li Dong wanted to be the number one and the richest man, so he took all of them.

In the blink of an eye, the whole Internet was discussing this matter.

It doesn't matter if Li Dong is the richest man, but it's boring to sing a one-man show alone.

Someone soon found out last year's Hurun List, and the nine business giants ahead of Li Dong became the focus of attention in an instant.

Li Dong said that he wants to be the richest man, so he obviously wants to step on you!

None of you nine stand up and say a few words?

Especially last year's richest man, Yang Huiyan, who is about the same age as Li Dong and can be regarded as a peer.

Now that Li Dong is going to step on you to take the position, do you have any other thoughts?

The media in Guangdong Province also gathered together and went to Country Garden to block people.

Yang Huiyan has been keeping a low profile and rarely appears in the media.

However, there were so many people paying attention this time, Yang Huiyan really didn't avoid it. When she was inspecting a project in the urban area, she was blocked by the media.

When the media asked Yang Huiyan to express her opinion on the topic of Li Dong becoming the richest man, Yang Huiyan thought for a while and gave four words - courage is commendable!

remarkably brave?

Yang Huiyan didn't say much, but it doesn't prevent the media from interpreting it for themselves.

Courage is literally a commendatory term, but it is clearly a derogatory term to say this in this general environment.

What do you mean by this, that Li Dong is bragging when he says he wants to be the richest man?

Regardless of whether it is true or not, harmony is not what the media wants to see. After the media's spring and autumn style of writing, the four words "courage is commendable" were immediately interpreted and translated.

One by one, when it reached Li Dong's ears, it had completely changed.

The translation is: who the hell do you think you are? Return the richest man, don't piss and look in the mirror, why don't you go to heaven!

...

Because of this matter, Li Dong was also blocked by the media for several days.

Li Dong was too lazy to show up in front of the media, and he never showed up, which made the media feel a little regretful.

They still wanted to see the two fight each other, but they didn't expect Li Dong to be silent at all.

...

Jinding Club.

Xu Shengzhe also joked about it.

Today is the full moon of Xu Shengzhe's daughter, because there was a big banquet during the third bath, and the Xu family did not have any more banquets at the full moon wine.

Xu Shengzhe and his wife invited some friends who are usually on good terms to hold a small event at Jinding.

After drinking for a while, Xu Shengzhe made fun of Li Dong about it.

"Aren't you usually awesome, why are you being cowardly this time? If you ask me, Yang Huiyan obviously looks down on you by saying this. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be cowardly!"

Li Dong just ignored him at first, and when he spoke again, Li Dong raised his head and glanced at him before saying, "No matter how much I coax you, I'm better than you. You have the kind of saying that you want to be the richest man at the annual meeting, not the whole country, but the whole Jiangbei... No, the richest man in Pingchuan will do."

"Pfft!"

Everyone at the table burst into laughter, and Xu Shengzhe's face turned green and green.

Uncle, I have never taken advantage of this guy.

With Li Dong around, even if Xu Shengzhe's assets doubled, he was no match for Li Dong.

However, the two companies are located in the same city, and under normal circumstances, Li Dong is regarded as a native of Pingchuan.

At this time, Xu Shengzhe just killed everyone in the country, but as long as he didn't kill Li Dong, the dream of being the richest man would be nonsense.

Since he took all the control of Longhua in his hands, he has a lot of assets in his hands. It is not a big problem to be the richest man in the province in other places.

But in Jiangbei, he didn't dare to say that about the richest man in the city.

Xu Shengzhe became angry from embarrassment: "You guys can show off your prestige in front of me. I'm not the richest man in the country, so what's the point of comparing me."

Bai Yueqin was afraid that the two of them would really get into a fight, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Li Dong was just joking, why is he blushing so anxiously, don't say a few words."

Xu Shengzhe huffed and hummed without making a sound, one thing fell one thing.

He is not afraid in front of his elder brother, and he is even used to scolding Li Dong, but he is very obedient in front of Bai Yueqin.

Especially now that he has a daughter, Xu Shengzhe, who is strong outside, has to be responsible for feeding the child and changing diapers when he returns home.

He stopped talking, but Li Dong became interested, and said with a smile: "You think I'm cowardly if I don't reply?"

"nonsense!"

"It's not that I admit cowardice, it's that I'm too lazy to care about it, you know nothing." Li Dong pouted and said, "If people like Huang Guangyu, Zhang Jindong, Xu Rongmao say this, even if I'm not convinced, I won't refute it.

But when Yang Huiyan told me this, I didn't even bother to refute.

Whether I have the courage or not is not for her to judge. This year, others dare not say it, and it is like playing around with her.

The market value of Country Garden last year was inflated, and it was completely speculated. Now it has fallen by half of last year.

After a while, it's hard to say whether the shares in her hands will be worth 30 billion.

As for the money, she didn't earn it, it's the same nature as you, so why should I care about it. "

Xu Shengzhe agreed with the previous words, but at the end, Xu Shengzhe's face turned blue again, and he said angrily: "Can you stop involving me in everything, why do I have the same nature as her!"

Li Dong smiled and said, "What do you think? The rich generation like us are much more boring than the second generation like you."

"roll!"

Xu Shengzhe cursed, lowered his head to tease his daughter, and didn't bother to talk to Li Dong anymore.

He didn't speak, but Bai Yueqin became interested, and asked curiously: "Li Dong, did Country Garden's stock price really drop so much?"

Last year, Country Garden's market value exceeded 100 billion, and Yang Huiyan's personal net worth also exceeded 100 billion.

Now Li Dong said that it may fall to 30 billion in a while, which is too much.

Everyone is in the real estate business, Country Garden has fallen so much, Bai Yueqin is now a little worried about Longhua.

When Bai Yueqin asked, Hu Xiaorui and Chen Wanting also pricked up their ears.

Hu Xiaorui was purely curious, while Chen Wanting and the others rarely had the chance to hear the gossip news about people like Li Dong.

Whether it is hundreds of billions or tens of billions, it is too far away for them.

If they were not best friends with Bai Yueqin, they would not have had the chance to participate in today's dinner.

Before Li Dong could speak, Xu Shengzhe said, "Why do you ask him about this? Ask me. I'm in real estate and know more about this than him."

Seeing that he was going to perform in front of his wife, Li Dong couldn't help being a little funny, and he didn't make trouble.

Xu Shengzhe saw that he was silent, so he smiled and said: "Affected by the financial crisis this year, it is normal for the market value of listed companies to shrink.

It can be shrunk to the size of Country Garden, not just because of the financial crisis.

Even without these, Country Garden will have to hit the street this year.

When it went public in Hong Kong last year, it was actually some capital predators who were behind it.

Country Garden itself is slightly stronger than Longhua, but not by much. Everyone knows this.

Under such circumstances, pushing up the stock price to that point is completely killing the chicken and taking the eggs, and it is inevitable that it will fall this year.

In addition to the inflated highs, there is also the fact that before Country Garden acquired land in Guangdong Province, the land price had been extremely low. In their development costs, the land price cost 10%. I am afraid that few real estate companies in the country have achieved this.

When it went public last year and its financial report was made public, some things were difficult to operate.

Land prices have risen sharply, profits have shrunk, financial reports are not good, and naturally fewer and fewer people are buying it.

Due to the comprehensive influence of various factors, Country Garden has shrunk so much. "

Others half understood, but generally understood.

After Xu Shengzhe finished speaking, Chen Wanting asked Li Dongdao timidly: "Mr. Li, so you can really become the richest man this year?"

All of Bai Yueqin's best friends stretched their necks, expecting Li Dong's answer.

Li Dong laughed and said, "Whether the richest man is not the richest man, it's all just a joke. The reason why I said this at the annual meeting is to stimulate the employees far away and boost morale.

But having said that, if there are no accidents this year, I think it will be about the same. "

After he finished speaking, many people looked at Xu Shengzhe again, wanting to wait for him to refute.

But he didn't want Xu Shengzhe not to raise the bar this time, but muttered: "The richest man is amazing. There are many domestic tycoons, and many people keep a low profile. Even the richest man is only on paper."

His words obviously acquiesced to Li Dong's statement.

The outside world has always been difficult to estimate how much Li Dong is worth now, but Xu Shengzhe knows a lot.

When the Hurun List was released last year, it was around September.

It has been less than half a year now, Yuanfang itself has made a lot of profits, coupled with the popularity of Weibo, PP, shopping malls and other Internet industries are also appreciating.

Yuanfang Logistics has also expanded a lot, and stores in Yuanfang Supermarket have opened one after another, plus Li Dong and him still have a lot of investment in the stock market...

Adding up all the sevens and eights together, I dare not say too much, Li Dong's personal wealth is more than 40 billion, which is stable.

According to Li Dong's earning speed, he may be able to reach 50 billion net worth when he comes out of the Hurun list.

50 billion last year, not even in the top three.

But this year is different. In fact, many rich people on the list are almost all listed companies.

The stock market has plummeted this year, and wealth has shrunk dramatically. Even Yang Huiyan, who is worth hundreds of billions, is now less than 50 billion. Even if other people are not so miserable, the gap is not too big.

Among the top ten richest people last year, the only one who was not the CEO of a listed group was Li Dong.

Whether the stock market falls or not does not have much impact on Li Dong.

The valuation of Dongyu Real Estate may have dropped somewhat, but Dongyu Real Estate does not have a lot of land, and the decline is not too big.

Calculated, Li Dong's net worth will reach 50 billion, and the richest man in the country is likely to be his.

This is also one of the reasons why few people refuted Li Dong's bold words.

They are all people in the industry, everyone knows what the situation is, there are people who are too lazy to fight for this title, but most of them still see something, so they don't come forward to mock Li Dong and speak wild words.

Yang Huiyan's side was actually not too much, probably because she felt a little unhappy, and finally said "courage is commendable".

After all, she was young, and she met Li Dong once in Xiangjiang last year.

At that time, Li Dong was not taken seriously by her. In a blink of an eye, Li Dong said that he wanted to surpass her, and it was understandable that he had mixed feelings.

Seeing what Xu Shengzhe said, the others became complicated for a while.

The richest man in the country!

If Li Dong really did this, it would be too terrifying.

The 23-year-old richest man in China is still the self-made man. Looking at the whole country, he may not have appeared in hundreds of years.

Of course, there are many invisible rich people in China, and the Hurun List is sometimes not so accurate, and many people have not counted them.

But everyone doesn't care about these, whether it is the richest man on paper or the real richest man, they all look the same, out of reach.

The topic of the richest man was quickly brought up by Li Dong, and everyone chatted about other things.

Especially this year's financial crisis, housing prices have plummeted, and Li Dong and Xu Shengzhe are both Jiangbei real estate tycoons. Taking this opportunity, Wei Na and the others couldn't help asking Li Dong and the others, is it a good deal to buy a house this year?

There are not many people today, and besides Chen Wanting and Wei Na, no one else is very interested in this.

Li Dong thought for a while and said, "If you have some spare money on hand, investing in real estate this year is still a good deal.

I dare not say too much, but in a few years, the increase of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of a house is within the normal range in my opinion. "

Regarding Li Dong's words, some people believed it, while others doubted it.

But believe it or not, no one refuted it.

On the one hand, Li Dong's status is getting higher and higher, and on the other hand, most of the people on the field are Li Dong's friends. Wouldn't it offend most people to refute Li Dong at this time.

After eating and drinking, after nine o'clock, everyone dispersed.

Bai Yueqin sent Chen Wanting and the others out of the club. Before leaving, Chen Wanting and Wei Na couldn't help but sneak a few glances at Li Dong.

After they left, Xu Shengzhe jokingly said, "Why didn't you say give it away?"

Li Dong smiled lightly: "I'm the guest, you are the host, if you didn't give it away, what should I do for you?"

Xu Shengzhe laughed, but didn't joke anymore.

When the waiter came over to make tea, Xu Shengzhe took a sip of tea and said, "The market has fallen again. I think it will drop by 4,000 points soon. Do you think it will continue to fall?"

From more than 6,000 points to 4,000 points, the decline is simply terrifying.

Even Xu Shengzhe doubted whether it would continue to fall at this time. They still had a lot of money in the stock market, Xu Shengzhe also asked Li Dong's opinion first.

Li Dong shook his head and said, "It's early, we'll talk about it when it drops to 3000 points."

"3000 points?"

Xu Shengzhe was a little shocked. Since the Shanghai Composite Index broke through the 2500-point mark in December 2006, it has climbed steadily, and reached its peak of 6124 points in October 2007.

But now, less than 5 months have passed, and it has almost fallen below 4,000 points. Both the increase and the decrease have made everyone confused.

Li Dong is still waiting to fall below 3000 points. Is the stock market really so depressed?

Seeing him shocked, Li Dong didn't bother to say anything else. He didn't know anything else. The only thing he knew was that 3,000 points was not the bottom line. The Shanghai Composite Index fell by 2,000 points at its worst.

And now is not the time when the financial crisis has the greatest impact. It has erupted violently abroad, but domestically we have to wait.

At least when Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, the global financial tsunami broke out.

Li Dong doesn't remember the exact time, but it shouldn't be too long.

At that time, it will be the most miserable time in the country. Next, in order to deal with the financial crisis, the country implemented a 4 trillion economic stimulus plan.

The two things are not far apart, and if you want to make money, the time difference between the two is the most profitable time.

Li Dong is also waiting silently now, accumulating strength, and is ready to make a fortune in one fell swoop during that period of time.

As for now, it's just a small fight.

It took more than 3 billion yuan to acquire the land in the capital. Others thought that Li Dong was generous, but in fact it was just an appetizer, and the big head was still behind.

Xu Shengzhe didn't ask any more questions. He cooperated with Li Dong because he believed in Li Dong's vision.

Since Li Dong was not in a hurry to leave the stage, he certainly wasn't in a hurry.

Even if he lost money, at least he has recovered 2 billion now, and the pressure is not that great.
