Chapter 1657: An Invisible Shopping Mall

October 29th.

Yuanfang Investment purchased another 1,000,000 shares of Dashang through the secondary market, holding 2,000,000 shares of Dashang’s share capital, and the ratio increased to 7%.

On the same day, Dongxing also began to sell in the secondary market.

Because Dongxing has not yet reached the placard line, how much equity it has acquired is temporarily unknown to the outside world.

However, it can be seen from some transaction data that the shares purchased by Dongxing will not be less than 2 million shares.

However, the 7% stake in Yuanfang alone has already made big businessmen tremble with fear.

At this moment, Yuanfang's shareholding ratio has begun to approach that of the largest shareholder, Dashang Group!

On this day, Dashang also began to repurchase shares in the secondary market.

Dashang shares, which were originally 0 yuan per share, rose by 8% that day, close to 5 yuan per share, after several companies bought them one after another.

In normal times, with such a high increase, the people from Dashang would be laughing from ear to ear.

But now, Dashang couldn't laugh.

The rise in stock prices represents an increase in their repurchase costs.

Dashang, which claims to use 3 billion funds to repurchase shares, does not even know how many shares it will be able to repurchase in the end.

Besides them, Dashang's stock trading is also somewhat abnormal, and there may be other people involved in it!

Da Shang couldn't guess who it was until he raised his sign.

But according to the rules, it should not be far away.

After Yuanfang raises its placard, companies and institutions related to Yuanfang need to make an announcement when buying stocks. This is a rule, and Yuanfang will not leave such a handle.

Who is participating, or are many people seeing the opportunity to participate, and Dashang has no time to care about it at the moment.

After all, for a big businessman holding a card in the distance, in the eyes of many people, this is also a good opportunity for a big businessman to speculate.

...

What happened in the north.

Central Region.

Wushanglian, as one of the best retail alliances in central China, has also encountered a great crisis this time.

Wushanglian is actually a collective name.

The other party is mainly composed of three listed companies, Zhongbai, Zhongshang, and Ewushang. These three retail companies originated in Hubei Province and are the overall components of Wushanglian.

Wushanglian exists as the holding parent company of the three companies.

Before Longhua announced the raising of placards, it was not the entire Wushang Federation that raised the placards, but Zhongbai among them.

In fact, China and Belarus have some connections with distant places. At first, the boss of China and Belarus met Li Dong on the way to the capital, and then met again in the capital.

And that time, the opponent's purpose was to bankrupt the restructuring plan.

It was indeed a success!

China and Belarus introduced Yuanfang, and the cooperation between the two parties gave Yuanfang the opportunity to enter Hubei Province for development.

But in the later period, the threat from the distance was too great, and the ambition was too great. China and Belarus realized that the wolf was in the house, and soon gave up the cooperation, and chose to complete the restructuring plan with the other two.

Three companies with cross-shareholdings.

In the end, Wushanglian will hold shares in a unified manner, and this has formed the retail alliance that dominates Central China today.

Zhongbai is the strongest among the three.

There is nothing wrong with Longhua holding a placard for China and Belarus, and calling it the Wushang Federation.

However, raising a placard does not mean holding shares, and Longhua actually purchased only 10% of Zhongbai shares.

However, on the 29th, when Longhua bought Zhongbai stock in the secondary market, another news broke out in the business world!

Yintai raises a card for Hubei Wushang!

As soon as the news came out, everyone stopped being in an uproar. Capital wars have happened frequently these days, and everyone has become numb.

It's just that everyone really doesn't know what Yuanfang's purpose is at this time!

Yintai is currently one of the members of the distant alliance.

But Yintai is not weak.

In fact, it was not the first time that the other party raised a sign for E Wushang.

As early as 2005, in order to expand, Intime entered Hubei Province, acquired part of the legal person shares of Ewushang, and then obtained part of the legal person shares again through auction.

By 2000, the shares held by Intime were close to the largest shareholder.

At that time, in order not to be seized by Yintai, Jiangcheng united with some people acting in concert, repelled Yintai's placard, and kept Ewushang's major shareholder status.

The so-called concerted action means that some shareholders of Ewushang have joined together and signed a concerted action agreement, during which the shares held by these shareholders will be concentrated in one party to exercise their rights.

In this way, the position of the major shareholder of the other party can also be maintained without being replaced by Intime.

In 2000, Yintai was repelled by Hubei Wushang, but at that time the opponent held a lot of shares and did not sell all of them.

Later, the three companies completed their reorganization plan. Considering future development, Intime sold a small amount of stocks and still retained about 0% of the equity.

But this time, the share capital of Ewushang held by Yintai is not 0%, but 5%.

According to the regulations of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, every increase or reduction of 5% of the shares of a listed company requires a placard announcement.

Intime announced that it will increase its shareholding by 5%, and its shareholding will reach 5%.

Now, Wushanglian is really in a hurry!

Among the three main companies, Zhongbai was raised by Longhua, and Ewushang was raised by Yintai.

Things are moving too fast!

Yesterday they were still watching jokes. After Longhua announced the news, before they had time to deal with it, Yintai, who had been defeated in Hubei Province before, made a comeback!

This time, Yintai is no longer alone.

If there is no approval and support from far away, no one believes that Yintai will participate in the action of raising placards at this time.

With their backs in the distance and echoing with Longhua, this is no longer just a fight for the control of Ewushang. Intime and Longhua, these distant departments, even have the idea of ​​competing for the control of Wushang Federation!

The Wushang Federation, which dominates the retail industry in central China, was forced to choose to participate in this melee.

...

Chaos ensues in the north and centre.

The South is even more inevitable.

Sun Tao, who guards the south, departed from Shanghai on the 29th, nominally to inspect the construction of new stores.

But in fact, they stop at various places along the way, and stop for a period of time every time they arrive at a place, and have secret talks with some local real estate developers and retail companies.

Although the two parties did not disclose any information to the outside world, everyone is not a fool.

During Sun Tao's trip to the south this time, what he talked about was nothing more than Yuanfang's entry into major shopping malls, and contacting members of Yuanfang's department to reach an agreement on advance and retreat.

...

The word "distant system" is now frequently mentioned by the outside world.

These include Longhua Group, Dongxing Group, and distant alliance enterprises.

This system is extremely powerful.

There is Yuanfang, which is the number one private enterprise, Longhua, the number two in the real estate industry, and Dongxing, a media giant. These enterprises, alone, can become a faction.

Now a new faction headed by Yuan Fang has formed. Although it has not risen for a long time, it has already terrified the outside world.

In the past, although Yuanfang was powerful, he always fought alone.

Moreover, Yuanfang will not do too many actions in the capital market, and more is to meet its own layout and actively negotiate mergers and acquisitions.

But now, Yuanfang has launched a placard war in the financial market, which has frightened many listed companies.

Moreover, more and more companies are involved, which makes many management teams with low shareholding ratios worried.

...

The outside world has become a mess.

Some people take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters, disturb the situation, and want to take advantage of the opportunity, which also happens from time to time.

At the time when the faraway factions were frequently raising placards, some previously low-key factions also showed their ferocious faces.

The Baoneng department, which had been glimpsed in the battle between Chaozhou merchants and Jiangbei merchant gangs before, has also moved frequently in the stock market this time.

The outside world didn't pay attention, but Li Dong received the news in advance.

The Baoneng Group is increasing its stake in Vanke Group, the current number one real estate group.

distance.

When he received the news, Li Dong squinted his eyes and smiled, "It's getting more and more interesting. Is the battle between Baowan and Baowan going to break out?"

"Battle of Baowan?"

Yuan Chengdao muttered something, but he didn't think much about it, but he was a little puzzled and said, "Do you think that Baoneng's plan to invade Vanke this time is not a normal investment method?"

Since they are all defined as the Baowan dispute, it is obvious that in Li Dong's view, a war between the two sides is bound to break out.

Li Dong said with a smile: "Baoneng is very ambitious. Now that the real estate market is recovering and Vanke is the number one real estate company, it is not surprising that they want to seize the controlling stake in Vanke.

What's more, the current largest shareholder of Vanke, Huarun Group, in the view of Baoneng, may soon be dragged into the ranks of the retail war.

Once Huarun is held back by us and Baoneng's hopes are greatly increased, it is normal to do some preliminary preparations at this time. "

In the business world, the shareholding of major companies is more complicated.

At present, Huarun is the largest shareholder of Vanke, and the two parties have cooperated for many years.

Huarun is not only engaged in retailing, but the other party's real estate business, gas business, and other manufacturing industries are quite strong.

This retail war has not yet involved Huarun and Bailian.

But in the eyes of the outside world, this is a matter of time.

This is a war sweeping the entire Chinese retail market. Even if these two giants don't want to participate, even if they don't provoke them from afar, they will be dragged into the battle in the end.

Without him, other companies would not be reconciled!

Huarun and Bailian didn't participate, and in the end they fought Yuanfang to the death, would the others like it?

Su Lin, including Dashang Group, has already forced the two companies to participate in the competition in some places, instead of acting as a bystander.

Once Huarun also gets involved, he will be slowed down and weakened in other areas.

The Baoneng Department took advantage of this to launch the Battle of Baowan, with a greater probability of success.

Of course, Li Dong analyzed it based on the experience of later generations.

At this moment, the Baoneng system as a whole has not yet surfaced, nor has their ambition been exposed. The purchase of a small amount of shares in Vanke is only an investment method in the eyes of the outside world.

Only Li Dong had heard about it in his previous life, so if he thinks about it a little this time and analyzes it, he can probably guess what the Baoneng Department is up to.

However, Li Dong didn't care too much, and he laughed again: "Not only Baoneng is preparing to fish in troubled waters, but other insurance funds, including some financial institutions and other enterprises, are ready to attack at any time to reap the fruits of victory.

China's business world is becoming more and more interesting now.

It won't be long before many wars will break out.

All walks of life must start to reshuffle. As I said before, we may enter the era of oligarchs, not only in the retail industry, but also in other industries.

Some companies are now waiting, waiting for the scuffle to break out to the climax, and they are also involved. Reorganization and mergers will happen frequently in the business world. "

Yuan Chengdao pondered for a moment when he heard the words: "Now we actually don't know whether it is good or bad. There are both pros and cons. I am afraid that even the government does not know whether to block or promote these enterprises to complete the reorganization and integration."

It is a good thing for enterprises to reorganize, merge and acquire, strengthen their strength, and avoid duplication of investment in resources.

However, some small and medium-sized enterprises will become victims in this great change, which may also kill their future growth space.

For these things, the government probably can only wait for now.

He said something casually, but Yuan Chengdao didn't mention this much, and turned back to the distant place and said: "Mr. Li, the financing period is coming to an end, and we are very likely to complete the plan ahead of schedule this time.

At present, we have raised funds of more than 20 billion in various markets.

The rest of the funds may be fully raised in just a few days.

Once the project is complete, we have a lot of money on hand to use.

In addition, the previous listing of Weibo and Teng Xun also brought a lot of funds for the development of these two companies.

Weibo's funds now have an investment direction. ..

However, Teng Xun still has a lot of funds available at present, Teng Xun asked us about it before, and wanted to ask Mr. Li what you mean..."

Before the two companies went public, the shares issued and the money sold belonged to the company.

Both of them have raised a lot of funds, part of Weibo is used for international expansion, and part is used for VR community building.

However, Teng Xun has been developing for a long time, some basic work has been completed long ago, and there are not many investment directions at present.

Consulting Li Dong's opinion is also something Teng Xun must do.

After listening, Li Dong pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled: "You said, if Teng Xun and Weibo are now allowed to buy some stocks of IT companies, will this melee spread to a wider range?"

"..."

Yuan Chengdao was completely speechless!

What is Li Dong thinking now?

Today, many companies and industries are involved, and among the current IT companies, Ali is also involved.

But once Teng Xun and Weibo attack again, it may cause a war in the whole industry.

And the distance, in the end, may become the target of public criticism and be attacked by everyone.

When Yuan Chengdao was pondering how to answer, Li Dong laughed again: "Just kidding, I won't do this kind of boring behavior.

As for the direction of investment, it is mainly used for the next development of the mobile market.

Nowadays, there are more and more 3G users, and there is already a trend of surpassing P users.

However, when I said that I bought shares in some IT companies, I was not just talking nonsense.

At this moment, Teng Xun has reached a stage where it cannot break through in some fields. At this time, it is necessary to open the entire Teng Xun platform, take instant messaging as the core business, expand other businesses, and achieve diversification.

How to do it, I will not make arrangements.

Since the business is entrusted to you to operate, the specific plan is naturally up to you to decide.

Also, my private investment fund company has been established.

A board meeting is held in these two days, and I started to do some handover procedures. "

As for the private fund company, as mentioned before, Yuan Chengdao was not surprised.

Yuanfang Holdings is currently controlled by the Li family. Even if Li Dong does not have a meeting and makes some cuts, no one else can refute.

The board of directors is just a formality.

However, Yuan Chengdao still asked: "Then what specific handover does President Li want to do?

Earlier you mentioned the shares of Weibo and Teng Xun, but I don’t know how much they are..."

"Below 5%, so you don't have to worry about it."

If it exceeds 5%, it is natural to make an announcement, which is a bit troublesome. If the share flow is less than 5%, there is no need to go through these procedures.

Yuan Chengdao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, because he was afraid that Li Dong would transfer assets on a large scale.

At this time, the distance is in a period of melee.

Once a large-scale transfer of assets is revealed, it is easy to arouse suspicion from the outside world, and it will be troublesome at that time.

A small amount of share transfer, this is not a big problem.

The two talked for a few more words, and Yuan Chengdao said everything he needed to say. Before leaving, he thought about it and asked: "As for Mr. Qi's appointment plan, in principle, the board of directors, including the board of directors of the retail group, has no Opinion.

However, Mr. Qi is currently in charge of the logistics and e-commerce business in the north. Do you think it is not suitable? "

As the executive president of the retail group, managing the retail business in the north, everyone has no objections.

But Li Dong himself said before that the duties and powers must be clear and cannot overlap.

Fortunately, Qi Yunna, the executive president of a retail group, has overstepped his authority to both the logistics group and Yuanfang Technology Group. How does this make the people of these two groups think?

Moreover, it is not easy to manage.

In name, Qi Yunna was their subordinate, but in fact she was not under their control, which was equivalent to losing the management authority of the North for no reason.

On this point, the two groups still have some opinions.

Qi Yunna is not Sun Tao, Sun Tao is Yuanfang's vice president and has the right to manage these businesses.

Qi Yunna has no such right.

Li Dong smiled and said: "It's just a temporary trusteeship, mainly to deal with the current situation in the north.

When the north settles down, this situation will naturally not happen again.

You go back and talk to Liu Hong and Kong Xiangyu, and tell them not to think too much, and they still need to cooperate with the work in the north..."

"I see."

Yuan Chengdao responded without asking any more questions, and quickly left the office.

...

When he returned to his office, Yuan Chengdao was sitting on a chair staring at the ceiling, a little distracted.

The situation in the business world is now invisible to everyone, and it is in chaos.

In fact, it is not only the business world, but what is the difference within the distant place?

Qi Yunna suddenly emerged, and suddenly took charge of the north, almost on the same power as Sun Tao.

It is said that it is a temporary escrow, but who knows what Li Dong is thinking?

As Li Dong's direct descendant, Qi Yunna has always been favored by Li Dong.

There have been ups and downs for many years, there have been peak periods, and there have also been low periods, but Qi Yunna has survived them all.

Up to now, the other party has risen again and has taken charge of the northern market.

Once she has gained a firm foothold in the North and is familiar with the business of other groups, who can be sure whether Qi Yunna will suddenly break out in the end and become the next strong competitor?

Thinking of this, Yuan Chengdao sighed a little.

Li Dong at this moment is unpredictable.

It's not like a few years ago, when watching Li Dong at that time, you can actually see something from some of his usual actions.

But now, Li Dong is becoming more and more unpredictable.

Several years of ups and downs in the business world have also made Li Dong more mature.

Moreover, in the current distance, all kinds of big moves continue, which also makes Yuan Chengdao a little worried.

Is it really possible to do all the work in one battle?

The situation has become more and more chaotic.

The scope of influence is also getting wider and wider.

Thinking of this, Yuan Chengdao couldn't help rubbing his temples. He was the president of the group, and now he was physically and mentally exhausted.

I can't help but think of the first time I saw Li Dong a few years ago.

At that time, who would have thought that this young man would start a war that swept across the entire Chinese business world in just a few years!
