My 1999

The next morning, Qiao Yuhui had breakfast and hurried to the company with the information.

She was so busy these two days that she couldn't even take care of Boss Xu.

Of course, Zhang Junning was the same.

The desire to make money has far exceeded the physical needs.

Xu Liang didn't have anything important to do. He mainly played with his son and daughter in the morning.

Of course, it's impossible to really ignore everything if you want to be free.

"Mr. Xu, it's Mr. Li Zhaoji's call."

Xu Liang understood and took the call.

"Uncle, it's rumored that you don't go to work until 11 o'clock? Why are you calling me so early?"

"Haha, there is no conflict between going to work and calling you."

After a few polite words, Li Zhaoji got straight to the point.

"What do you think of the information I gave you last night?"

"Uncle, why are you interested in Seibu Group?"

Last night, the information Li Zhaoji gave him was the information of Dongying Xiwu Group.

"Although Seibu is bankrupt, its assets are all good stuff. It just so happens that we old guys have benefited from your kindness in the past two years and have some spare money in our hands. Let's invest."

"Who else besides you?"

"And Brother Tong."

"Uncle Tong is also interested in Xiwu Group?"

"He wants Millennium Retail."

In 2003, the holding company of Seibu and SOGO Department Store in Japan was renamed "Millennium Retail".

After the integration of the two companies, it will be ranked alongside Takashimaya Department Store and become one of the two largest department store groups in Japan. In 2005, the turnover exceeded US$8.5 billion.

It is the top department store giant in Japan.

Xu Liang suddenly realized.

New World Department Store is the core business of the Zheng family.

"Fourth Uncle, you know, I am not very interested in Xiwu's assets."

What I want most is the shares of Bandai held by Seibu Group, and now I have it.

It would be best if MUJI and Yoshinoya can be acquired, but it doesn't matter if they can't.

"Aren't you acquiring MUJI and Yoshinoya? When the time comes, the three of us will form a consortium, and the acquisition will be smoother. What do you think?"

Grouping together is indeed more conducive to acquisition.

"Okay, I agree to this."

"Haha, I knew you would agree. I'll find a time for everyone to meet and talk in detail."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Liang returned the phone to Li Jinling.

...

It was soon afternoon.

A helicopter crossed the Lingdingyang and landed on the roof of the Hanhua International Center [AIA International Financial Center].

Dong Zhuming, who was wearing a dark blue women's suit and had shoulder-length hair, came down from the roof with her secretary.

It was her first time to come to Hong Kong by helicopter.

The man waiting on the side quickly came up.

"Mr. Dong, I am Hu Xiao, the secretary of the President's Office of Hongyan."

Dong Zhuming was very polite in front of the 'close minister of the emperor'.

Shake hands.

"Hello, has Mr. Xu arrived?"

"Mr. Xu is in the office, please follow me."

"Thank you."

Coming down from the top floor, he soon arrived at the office reserved for Xu Liang at the Hanhua Xiangjiang headquarters.

He knocked on the door and went in.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Dong Zhuming of Gree Electric Appliances has arrived."

"Come in."

Hu Xiao quickly stepped aside to make way.

Thinking of the legendary business genius, the curious Dong Zhuming took a breath and walked in.

Xu Liang saw that Mr. Dong walked in and was obviously younger than he remembered.

There was scrutiny in his eyes.

Before he was reborn, this woman was a well-known shopping mall iron lady in the country.

In order to adapt to the new situation in the retail market, she did not hesitate to personally participate in variety shows. Although it caused a lot of trouble, it also greatly increased Gree's popularity among young consumer groups.

The bet with Xiaomi Lei Jun benefited both parties.

Very successful marketing.

"Hello, Mr. Xu, I am Dong Zhuming."

After a simple handshake, Xu Liang smiled.

"I've heard that Gree's CEO Dong is a tough business woman. In order to stop Carrier from acquiring Gree, she not only rejected an annual salary of 80 million, but also went to the provincial government to slam the table with the top leader.

To be honest, when I acquired Gree, I was really afraid that you would not agree."

"Mr. Xu, you're too kind.

If European, American, Japanese and Korean companies acquire Chinese companies for good development, then I will definitely not stop them.

I also want 80 million.

But examples such as China Toothpaste and Tianfu Cola have proved that foreign companies acquire domestic industries in order to use our channels to sell their own products and suppress us at the same time.

Gree is the result of 20 years of hard work by tens of thousands of people in the company. As the president of Gree, I can't watch our efforts being destroyed."

Then he changed the subject.

"Compared with foreign companies, the Hongyan you founded has helped many companies to succeed.

Especially the Delong Group, which is a model of turning losses into profits in the industry.

And under your leadership, Hanhua, Hongyan, Kanghua, Taihua, New Dream and others have achieved great success in various industries. I believe that Gree will achieve greater success under your leadership."

Xu Liang looked at the smiling and flattering woman in front of him.

Dong Zhuming's success is not only due to her iron-fisted side, but also her good dancing side.

But this is normal.

It is easy to break if it is strong and domineering.

If it was just strong and domineering, Gree would not have reached its later height.

"Mr. Dong is too kind, please sit down."

The two sat down.

After the secretary next to him served tea.

"Does President Dong know why I acquired Gree?"

"You are optimistic about Gree's future development."

Xu Liang smiled and picked up the teapot to pour her a cup of tea.

"To be precise, I am not optimistic about Gree, but I am optimistic about Gree under the leadership of President Dong.

There are many good companies in this world, but good companies with excellent leaders are rare.

Under your leadership, Gree's total revenue has tripled from 6.588 billion yuan in 2001 to 18.265 billion yuan in 2005, with a total revenue of three times in four years, and an average annual growth rate of more than 70%.

It is also among the top ten in the country.

I admire it very much.

So, I must acquire Gree.

Just for President Dong."

Xu Liang's status and position made Dong Zhuming feel a little touched when he said this.

"You are too polite. As the CEO of Gree, it is my responsibility to lead the company to develop better."

"Every manager of a company has the responsibility to develop the company better, but not many can take on this responsibility."

After another compliment.

"Have you ever considered Gree's future development strategy?"

Dong Mingzhu was shocked. She understood the key point, or the test was coming.

Looking at the smiling man in front of her, she took a deep breath and took out the prepared speech.

"Mr. Xu, Gree's development is divided into two links: production and sales.

In terms of production, the main focus is to expand upstream and downstream, save costs, and increase company profits.

Specific measures are as follows: In 2004, Gree acquired 70% of the equity of Haizhu Lingda Compressor, 80% of the equity of Xinyuan Electronics, and 70% of the equity of Gree Electric (Enameled Wire).

In April this year, it acquired 100% of the equity of Kaibang Motor.
