One day, Yu Yu said to Li Guoqing: "We are both husband and wife, is this share going to be divided?" Li Guoqing didn't think twice: "Since you are my wife, this share has to be half of yours." Unexpectedly, after Yu Yu got the shares, he kicked Li Guoqing out. Li Guoqing immediately regretted it! Li Guoqing is a member of the liberal arts department of Peking University, entered the system after graduation, and later was unwilling to be mediocre to go to the sea to do business, and devoted himself to book publishing. Once Li Guoqing went to New York to attend a friend's party, and met Yu Yu, who was one year younger than him, through the introduction of a friend. At that time, Yu Yu was a venture capitalist on Wall Street, specializing in financial consulting business. Li Guoqing asked her about investment, and Yu Yu also explained to him generously and enthusiastically. After the party, Li Guoqing invited Yu Yu to be his company's consultant. Yu Yu refused.

A few months later, Yu Yu went to Beijing to do a project, and when Li Guoqing learned about it, he went to the airport to pick her up, and then invited her to dinner and asked her for a walk. After going back and forth, the two looked at each other, and soon fell in love together. After four months of dating, the two tied the knot. After marriage, Yu Yu also gave up his career on Wall Street and returned to China to assist Li Guoqing. The husband and wife, one has been deeply involved in the publishing field for many years, and the other is familiar with corporate management. One day, Yu Yu tentatively asked Li Guoqing: "You see that we have been married for so many years, do you want to share this share?" When Li Guoqing heard this, he didn't think twice: "Since you are my wife and we are all a family, you have to have a share of this share." Yu Yu is very interesting: "Dangdang.com was founded by you, and you made it big, so Dangdang.com can't do without you, if it's divided, I'll take 3, you just take 7!" Li Guoqing is broad-minded: "Then how can we do it, we are husband and wife, and you also have credit for the company, and you will score half of this equity." After a while, Yu Yu tentatively asked Li Guoqing: "Then do you want to give the child a little share in advance?" Li Guoqing didn't hesitate: "Then give the child one in advance!" Yu Yu said again: "If the child also shares, how to divide it?" Or 3 1! Li Guoqing felt that it didn't matter, it was all his own family anyway. Then Yu Yu came back again: "The child is still young, and he can't change it for the time being, so let me hold it on my behalf!" In this way, Yu Yu took two shares, 60%, and Li Guoqing took one share, 20%.

After that, Yu Yu and Li Guoqing had a difference in management concepts, Yu Yu and the management team hoped to raise Dangdang as a pig and sell it to make money after fattening; And Li Guoqing hopes to raise Dangdang as a child and never sell it. The two had different concepts, so Yu Yu kicked Li Guoqing out of Dangdang.com. In this regard, Li Guoqing has always been uneasy, he gritted his teeth and said: "If I hadn't stumbled and married the wrong wife, I would still be in charge of Dangdang, and the current Dangdang is also tens of billions of sales!" Li Guoqing is the most miserable man among many entrepreneurs, and the company he worked so hard to build was finally kicked out by his wife and divorced. Li Guoqing was willing to give shares to his wife and children at that time, which showed that he was a good man who loved his wife and loved his children, and most ordinary people couldn't do it, let alone rich people.
