After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 428: A Smart Way of Retreating to Advance
"Old Lu, where are you?"

The next day at noon, Xiao Wang called. Lu Liang was awakened by the ringing and told the room number: "Room 52 on the 1010nd floor."

After the phone call was hung up, ten seconds later, there was a knock on the door. Apparently Xiao Wang also stayed in this hotel last night.

He was wearing hotel slippers and said casually, "What's the matter? I just woke up and didn't even have lunch."

Lu Liang said, "I just want you to be quiet recently. Some people are eyeing Panda and want to hype it up as a monster stock. I hope the company won't let you down."

When Xiao Wang heard this, his eyes widened: "Damn, Panda has become a monster stock, isn't this going to make a fortune?"

He quickly asked: "I just checked and the stock price has risen to 7 dollars. Does that mean it will double?"

The latest stock price is US$7, with a market value of 135 billion. If it doubles, it will be 270 billion. He holds 31.55% of the shares, which is US$85 billion, equivalent to RMB 570 billion.

570 billion yuan. If calculated based on last year's list, he ranks 30th on the national rich list. He alone is equal to the Wu family of Longfor Properties.

"Maybe, maybe not, the key is how they plan to do it."

Lu Liang was absent-minded. He saw dozens of red banknotes pressed down by an ashtray on the coffee table. He counted them and there were about thirty-two.

I remembered that there were a few long hairs on the white pillow and some leftover condoms on the bedside table, proving that I was not alone in the empty room last night.

Taking all these factors into consideration, it seems like he was raped.

"Cong, do you think I have the potential to be a puppy?"

Lu Liang smiled and flicked the banknotes, which produced a crisp sound.

Xiao Wang looked strange: "Where did this money come from?"

"I was busy for half the night last night, but when I woke up, no one was there, and all I had left was this stack of money."

Lu Liang smiled, feeling at ease, and put away the fruits of his labor.

Xiao Wang roughly understood the whole story and said indignantly: "Can you please have some shame?"

To him, this was a humiliation.

However, Lu Liang didn't think so. He smiled and said, "What's wrong with an old farmer who works hard on the land getting some labor compensation? Isn't this what he should do?"

Xiao Wang was silent for a long time, and suddenly, as if his defense was broken, he said with contempt: "I am ashamed to be associated with you."

There was also a man's competitive spirit in the contempt. He was only in his twenties, while Lu Liang was in his thirties. Why couldn't he get it?

“That’s the difference between us.”

Lu Liang smiled indifferently and went to the bathroom to wash up. After a while, the sound of a door closing heavily was heard.

After a while, when he walked out of the bathroom, Xiao Wang had already left. Lu Liang looked at the red banknotes and stuffed them into his wallet without thinking.

Be it a case of being prostituted or Cinderella's shoes, he won't buy it anyway.

If we meet again by chance, we will continue our previous relationship. If not, let it go with the wind.

They are all adults. The woman does not want to be responsible, and Lu Liang will not force her.

In the afternoon, Lu Liang went to Sucheng Jingshui.

Although it was Saturday, there was still banging noise coming from the construction site.

Zhuo Yifan has already taken up his post and is like an assistant, following Wang Xiaofeng at all times.

Talk less, watch more, ask more, and get familiar with the situation here in the shortest possible time.

On the other side of the river, eighteen factories are taking shape and will be completed in a few months.

Lu Liang took a quick look and did not stay long. He returned to the Magic City early the next morning.

Last night, Wen Chao called and the Bitcoin market suddenly surged.

It surged 7% overnight and returned to $1600.

They only hold 41% of the shares and have nearly $ million in liquidity. Will they continue to increase their holdings?
"Add more to create the illusion that retail investors are chasing high prices." Lu Liang issued the latest instructions without hesitation.

On December 12, Bitcoin closed at $17, with a profit of more than $20852 per coin.

Any price below $10,000 is a low price. If they were not worried about large-scale purchases affecting the market, they would have bought back shares violently long ago.

End of September, on the eve of National Day.

As per Didi's usual practice, Liu Qing held a board meeting to report on the situation in September to all shareholders.

Previous board meetings were held once a quarter, not as frequently as in the past few months.

Due to the failure of the major listing review, the company had to hold meetings frequently and produce the latest performance report every month to appease all shareholders.

It’s not that they can’t go public, they just don’t want to go public yet. The company has abundant cash flow and its performance is growing every month.

If the IPO is valued at $500 billion, it would undoubtedly be a sell-off at a low price, and they should wait until a better time.

The audience looked at each other. They had heard this kind of rhetoric so many times that their ears were almost callused. Whether it was because they couldn't or they didn't want to, they already knew the answer in their hearts, but no one wanted to be the first to speak out.

The daughter of the former president of the Taishan Society, she returned from further studies at Goldman Sachs, a culmination of the fusion of the East and the West.

Unless it really has come to a matter of life and death, no one wants to offend the girl from the Liu family.

"What Mr. Liu said is indeed correct."

Zhu Hu glanced at Shen Peng and suddenly said, "I just don't know if Mr. Liu has paid attention to pandas."

"Panda shares closed at $7.12 this morning, up 224% in three days, with a market value of $136.85 billion."

"The road show in New York some time ago was oversubscribed 218.85 times, breaking the record for Chinese concept stocks IPO in the US set by Ali three years ago."

"From the market's reaction, it is not difficult to see that the cold winter for Chinese stocks in the U.S. has passed and spring is about to come."

As soon as these words were spoken, the neutral shareholders who had been hindered by the Liu family's tyranny suddenly became agitated.

After five years, we have been ranked first in the country and have raised more than 20 billion US dollars. It is time to reap the rewards.

Liu Qing's expression froze, but she had to say: "Whether it is spring or not is still doubtful, because Lu Liang's existence plays a big role."

"maybe."

Shen Peng raised his lips and naturally took over the conversation: "But as far as I know, iQiyi, Penguin Music, Mogujie, and 360 Finance have all started their IPO plans ahead of schedule."

"The best time has come. We have made full preparations ahead of other companies. If we can land on the market quickly, it will be enough to make up for the losses caused by early listing."

Liu Qing was slightly distracted, and suddenly her eyes became as sharp as a knife as she looked at Shen Peng, and then at Zhu Hu.

If it was only Zhu Hu, he could be thought to be complaining, but Shen Peng joined in, and it was obviously directed at her.

Other shareholders also realized that the so-called big and small kings in the domestic investment community were joining forces to put pressure on Liu Qing.

With such a good opportunity, how could they not take advantage of it? Going public early, cashing out early, and getting the funds back early are the purest ideas of every investor.

Liu Qing narrowed her eyes and looked at everyone. There were 22 executive directors, non-executive directors, shareholder representatives, employee representatives, and capital representatives in total.

More than half of the people agreed with their proposal. Even Cheng Wei, who usually supported her the most and only said yes, showed great interest.

Liu Qing frowned. If a few neutral parties were excluded, there would probably be less than a quarter of people standing on her side at this moment.

Going public is the voice of the public. Those in power may use roundabout means, but they must never go against the public in person.

She is just a person in power, not a dictator.

Liu Qing pondered for a while and made a decision: "Boss Shen, Boss Zhu, do you have a better idea? Why not tell me?"

"We are all thinking about the company. If you two have better ideas, I am willing to withdraw from the position of the company's listing consultant."

Although everyone knows that Didi did not go public because it could not, not because it did not want to, no one has said it explicitly.

Liu Qing is very confident in the results of her many years of management and believes that no one can replace her position in Didi.

This move is called retreat to advance.

Only by letting them know that Didi cannot function without Liu Qing, will they give up and Didi will be able to take power better in the future.

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhu Hu and Shen Peng looked at each other. They could see the joy that flashed across their eyes, as if double happiness was written all over their faces.

But no one spoke again, and some even began to persuade Liu Qing not to be impulsive. They were just discussing it together and did not deny her contribution.

Liu Qing's lips curled up, and she felt more and more proud, but she still said in a deep voice: "Didi should have gone public long ago. It is indeed my fault that it has not yet gone public."

Zhu Hu smiled and said, "Mr. Liu has worked hard and made great contributions to Didi's development to date. You have made great contributions. How can you be so self-deprecating?"

Shen Peng suddenly looked at the chairman Cheng Wei and said, "Mr. Cheng, please help persuade Mr. Liu. We can sit down and discuss this properly."

They have already fired the first shot, and now it is Cheng Wei's turn to make his stance clear. It is impossible for him to remain a coward and reap the benefits.

Everyone turned their eyes to Cheng Wei. He had always been the company's mascot, but now he suddenly seemed a little different.

Cheng Wei pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Ms. Liu has indeed made great contributions to Didi. Without her, there would be no Didi today."

Liu Qing's face gradually became gloomy, and she suddenly felt something was wrong. It was definitely not a good thing to be praised and acknowledged for her contribution first.

The next second, Cheng Wei's words confirmed her guess.

"But after all, everyone has their own expertise. Perhaps we should invite more professional people to take charge of Didi's listing."

"Mr. Cheng, who do you think we should invite?" Liu Qing's eyes were fierce, and she felt like she was tightly covered by a big net.

Zhu Hu, Shen Peng and Cheng Wei, the three of them suddenly joined forces. This was definitely not a sudden idea, but a long-planned one.

Cheng Wei had a calm expression on his face; he had been waiting for this day for a long time and ignored Liu Qing's gaze.

After thinking hard for a long time, he said, "I heard that Chen Qi from Mogujie is interested in contacting Lu Liang, and since we have invested in Tianxing Technology, we may be able to get close to him."
