Chapter 338: Sun Tao's crazy idea

The morning meeting continued until more than eleven o'clock.
The others left, and when Li Dong went out, Sun Tao was waiting at the door.
When Li Dong came out, Sun Tao smiled and said, "Go out to eat together?"
Li Dong nodded and said, "Let's go together."
The two went downstairs while chatting.
Li Dong and Sun Tao usually have more meals at the company at noon, and they also have designated restaurants.
Entering the restaurant, the boss quickly smiled and said: "General Manager Li, General Manager Sun, at noon or the old rules?"
Li Dong nodded and entered the small box with Sun Tao.
After sitting for a while, the boss walked in with the teapot in person, with a wide smile on his face: "Mr. Li, Mr. Sun, Mao Feng just before Ming, try the taste?"
Li Dong nodded with a smile, waited for the boss to finish the tea, took a sip at random, and then said: "Good tea!"
The boss cheerfully humbly said a few words. Although he understood that Li Dong was mostly polite, he came out of the box with satisfaction.
As soon as he left, Li Dong said the right thing: "What do you think about the subsidiary?"
Sun Tao was looking for Li Dong precisely for this matter. After seeing Li Dong mentioning it himself, he thought about it and said, "I feel you are a little anxious."
"Do you disagree?"
Sun Tao shook his head and said: "It's not that I disagree, but I think it's too fast. The mall has just gone online and is not yet profitable, and the balance of payments can't be maintained. At this time, the establishment of a subsidiary is more harmful than good.
Li Dong was not in a hurry, and asked with a smile: "How to say?"
Because it was not in the company, Sun Tao did not hide it, and directly said: "I will say two things. First, if the remote mall is split and financially independent, will there be any change in the investment of the distant mall?"
Li Dong thought for a while and said: "It should not be, maybe I will increase investment."
Sun Tao frowned, disagreeing: "If this is the case, what is the point of setting up a subsidiary? Investment is not rare, and it will not be profitable in the short term. Setting up a team alone will only increase expenditure."
Li Dong laughed: "The main reason is to avoid risks."
"Avoid risk? Do you think the mall has a big risk?"
"It's hard to say, after all, it's the Internet industry. You and I don't really understand it. During this time, I researched a lot of Internet companies. At the last moment, listing is almost inevitable, so I want to split it out ahead of time to save the trouble later . "
Sun Tao thought about Li Dong's meaning for a long time. Xu Jiu was a little surprised: "Do you want to go public independently? What about supermarkets in the distance!"
In the eyes of these senior executives, going public is almost an inevitable move.
To a certain extent, general enterprises will operate and go public.
Sun Tao had always thought this way before, and felt that by a certain time, Li Dong would definitely run a distant supermarket to go public.
But now listening to Li Dong's meaning, it seems that the mall is listed independently, while the parent company of Yuanfang Supermarket remains independent.
Li Dongman said casually: "I'm not going to go to the market in Yuanfang Supermarket. At least so far, I don't have this idea. What do you think?"
Sun Tao didn't know what to say for a while, Li Dong suddenly said this today, which made him a little overwhelmed.
After being silent for a long while, Sun Tao whispered: "If I don't say this first, I have a little doubt. After the establishment of the subsidiary company, how does the management team decide?"
"I haven't decided yet, and it's not a short-term matter to split the mall. I'll talk about it later."
Sun Tao smiled bitterly, and then said, how to say?
Although the subsidiaries are nominally under the jurisdiction of the parent company, they are actually highly independent and have their own management.
Now who is the management of the e-commerce department, is Shen Qian, Shen Qian is in charge of a department within the company, let her become the chairman of the subsidiary?
Sun Tao thinks this is very unreliable. It is a little more difficult for a developing company to be handed over to Shen Qian for management.
If it were not Shen Qian, it would be more trouble.
The e-commerce department was almost built by Shen Qian. What would Shen Qian think if someone else took control of it?
After painstaking efforts to build the mall, the result was picked peach, who can be reconciled.
So Sun Tao felt that it was very untimely to let the mall split at this stage. Li Dong failed to give him a satisfactory answer to the points he said.
With a soft sigh, Sun Tao was helpless but didn't know what to say.
After a while, the dishes came up.
Li Dong and Sun Tao did not drink, and continued talking while eating.
After a few words, Sun Tao provoked a new topic: "Have you heard about the Times Supermarket?"
"Which era?"
"Sun Supermarket."
After thinking about it for a while, Li Dong asked, "Are you saying that the times are going to sell?"
"Well, recently, China Resources, Wumart, and Lianhua have been in constant contact with the management of the era and want to complete the merger. Once the era is acquired, we may have some troubles in the future."
Sunan Times and Su Guo are both leaders in the retail industry, and Su Guo has been acquired by China Resources.
If the era is acquired by China Resources again, then Sunan will be operated by China Resources into a metal bucket.
The strategic goal of the distant place is also the southern Jiangsu region. The entry into the Suyulu region is the established goal of the distant place. At this time, if the retail industry in southern Jiangsu is unified, the distant place will have little room for survival.
If it is acquired by the other two, the situation in the distance is not so good.
Wumart mainly operates in the Beijing-Tianjin area. Once it gets through southern Jiangsu, it will complete strategic expansion and even reach the Jiangbei market.
At present, the best result is that the era was completed by Lianhua, which is probably the least threatening to the distant place.
Li Dong pondered for a moment, recalling the memory in his mind.
He was not too impressed with Times Supermarket. After all, he had never been out of Jiangbei in his previous life, nor did he know much about the retail industry in other regions.
But one thing Li Dong remembers clearly is that the last era was not merged by any of the three.
Moreover, the Times supermarket has not been listed yet. Li Dongyin remembers that the Times supermarket appeared to be listed in the second half of next year, and it was finally listed by Lotte Mart after a period of listing.
In the early stage, Wumart should have the upper hand, and it has even announced that it will invest half of the shares in the era.
However, it should be that Wumart Commercial was subject to government investigations and suspended for a long time, which led to the final inability to pay for the acquisition and was finally forced to stop the acquisition of Times Supermarket.
Thinking of this, Li Dong didn't care about it: "Let them play, it has nothing to do with us."
Sun Tao said: "How can it matter? Isn't it far from preparing to enter Sunan? M & A is now very popular. If we can win the Times Supermarket, then Sunan's strategic layout will be more than half completed."
Li Dong was almost choked to death!
After coughing for a while, Li Dongcai looked at Sun Tao with surprise: "Are you sure you are not drunk?"
Sun Taogan laughed: "I'm sure I'm sober."
"Do you know how much Time Supermarket is worth now?"
"Probably around two billion."
Li Dong didn't have a good air: "Then you said you are not drunk? I think you are drunk. We are not as old as we are in the distance. You let me swallow a little and think that it is pretty."
If possible, Li Dong is naturally willing to buy the times.
Times Supermarket not only has a layout in southern Jiangsu, but also has an industrial layout in Shandong Province.
Once the era can be won, the distance is a leap-forward development, breaking from Jiangbei to the entire East China field in one fell swoop.
Now the retail industry in East China is dominated by China Resources, and other supermarkets and stores can only be subordinated to it, and the distance is no exception.
The biggest competitor of Li Dong in the East China region is the China Resources Department, especially its subordinate Su Guo, and it is a roadblock for the distant entry into Sunan.
Before Li Dong's idea was to step by step, with the help of the mall, slowly eat away.
Now that these established retailers do not pay much attention to online, Li Dong's idea is to use the influence of the remote mall to slowly erode the customer base of the younger generation. There should not be too much conflict with China Resources in a short time.
In addition, China Resources is not alone, and others are happy to see themselves touching the tiger's ass, and Li Dong is not afraid of being collectively suppressed by the industry.
However, it will take time, not to mention the domineering that Li Dong and Shen Qian said, in fact, he really is not too big to grasp.
Even if it can finally get out of Jiangbei, the East China region will not be able to dominate in a short time.
In order to surpass the influence of the China Resources Department in East China, Li Dong did not know how long it would take. Perhaps no hope could be seen in this life, and that was not impossible.
Rebirth is not omnipotent. He can lead the right path in the distance, but there is no guarantee that the distance will be invincible.
But now that Sun Tao mentions it this way, Li Dong seems to feel that he has some hope, a very contradictory feeling.
After thinking about it for a while, before waiting for Sun Tao to speak, Li Dong said: "The era of mergers and acquisitions is indeed a good move. Since you said that, do you have any ideas?"
Sun Tao touched his nose, embarrassedly: "That's not there, but I think I can give it a try."
"How to try? There is no money to say that these are useless, and what we are going to do is a wholly-owned acquisition. It is troublesome not to continue the reorganization. At least 2.5 billion yuan of funds must be prepared, and it must be a cash acquisition. Why do you say that we have an idea for the times? "
Sun Tao squeezed his eyes at Li Dong and whispered: "Shen President!"
"Screw you!"
Li Dong didn't have a good air: "I think you are really drunk, more than two billion, can Shen Qian decide?"
Sun Tao chuckled: "Don't Secretary Du want to see the era of distant annexation? This is because Jiangbei local companies invaded southern Jiangsu. Jiangbei and southern Jiangsu have been old opponents for so many years. If we can annex the era, Secretary Du also has a bright face right."
Li Dong pouted: "Thinking of beauty, you are an empty-gloved white wolf, and treat Secretary Du as a fool."
If it is one or two hundred million, Secretary Du may also help a distance in order to attack his opponent.
Two to three billion yuan, this fund is too large, unless Li Dong is his son, or his son-in-law will not work, Lao Du has not been crazy to that point. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse for a better reading experience.
