Chapter 1138 Family Banquet
"Mr. Xu, I would actually like to hear your views on the overseas financial investment market." Lou Wei said with a smile.
“Overseas investment, Hanhua is mainly divided into three major business sectors, venture capital, private equity and hedge funds...”
Xu Liang saw that Lou Wei was not very interested in venture capital, so he It focuses on the private equity and hedge fund business.
After listening, Lou Wei nodded without saying anything more, and then named Xiong Xiaoge.
Following Xiong Xiaoge, Zhang Fan and others also spoke one after another, talking about the domestic venture capital industry in a lavish way, all trying to leave a good impression on this "big boss" who is in charge of 200 billion US dollars.
However, because Xu Liang took up too much time, the others only got one or two minutes to speak. Lou Wei asked a few questions and then it was the next person's turn, which made them feel that they were full of tips and strategies. Show it.
Soon, this symposium to offer ideas and suggestions came to an end.
Under the leadership of the staff, Xu Liang, Jiang Xiaoyang, Zhang Fan, Xiong Xiaoge and others formed a team and left.
As soon as they walked out of the door, a group of people came towards them.
The leader was Liang Miansong, followed by Su Shimin, Mai Jinheng and several foreigners.
Both teams noticed each other, but the situation was not right, so they did not say hello. Only Mai Jinheng, an old friend, nodded to Xu Liang.
Xu Liang felt bad. It was probably Liang Miansong who helped find two large overseas projects with "potential" for CIC.
Blackstone is about to go public, and Morgan Stanley is shaking up Wall Street. This must be a good project to make money!
Most people should see it this way.
Xu Liangzhong sighed slightly, he couldn't care less, everyone can clean up the snow in front of their own door.
If you do well in your own industry, you will be contributing to national construction.
As soon as they walked out of the great hall, Zhang Fan, Xiong Xiaoge and others parted ways with Xu Liang and left with smiles.
In the car, Jiang Xiaoyang said: "You talked too much today about industry and policy. Isn't it clear from above? Do you need to remind me?"
Xu Liang smiled slightly: "Say Let’s take a look, what if we can change their investment strategy?”
Jiang Xiaoyang sneered, "You're overthinking. That's the country's money. Are you qualified to make decisions?"
"That 200 billion US dollars is one billionth of mine!"
Xu Liang actually knew that his words might not have enough weight.
In China, no matter how rich a businessman is, his status is still lower than those who play politics.
Thousands of years of tradition cannot be changed in a hundred years.
But he couldn't help but want to try it.
Imagine if the country indirectly invested in dozens or hundreds of unicorn companies.
Isn’t it better than investing in Blackstone and ultimately only earning Yu’ebao income?
Only when the country is strong can the people live and work in peace and contentment.
Only a businessman like him can earn more.
Only those industries he owns overseas will be safer.
Without a strong enough country to support him, the Americans, Frenchmen, and Japanese dwarves would have long ago used tricks to carve up the assets in his hands.
At his current position, how much money he makes is no longer the most important thing.
How to keep money while traveling among the major forces is the key.
The key is national power.
The United States and the United States are number one in the world, and they are harvesting the world with a piece of green paper. Who dares to dissent?
Businessmen in the United States can get whatever they want in any country.
Like Soros, who harvests the Bank of England and hunts all of East and Southeast Asia. Apart from grinning, they dare not give money?
A negative example is Abramovich of Chelsea, who worked hard to integrate into the UK and the West, but in the end he could spit out his billions of wealth with just one sentence.
So, when businessmen develop to a certain level, the competition must be the strength of the country!
As a Chinese, he is lucky.
There is an increasingly powerful country behind him, which is also the basis for his courage to expand globally.
So he wants the country to become stronger than anyone else.
This way his assets will be safe.
Jiang Xiaoyang: "You can't change them."
Xu Liang said calmly: "Just try your best and you can live with it in your heart."
"But your price is too high. Team leader Lou has already asked that. Obviously he wants to flex his muscles overseas. You What does it mean to keep saying domestic?
You don’t know? Talk about the return rate of Hanhua’s investment in the US market?
That’s what they want.”
“What’s the price at most?” Lost this financing opportunity
Is Hanhua still short of money now? "Xu Liangdao.
Jiang Xiaoyang stared at him, "CIC's money is not of the same nature as overseas money. ”
Getting the money above is equivalent to getting a pass for domestic investment. Some large-scale projects led by the state will be easier to negotiate on the door.
Corporate mergers, acquisitions and reorganization, Industry financing, qualification application, etc. will be easier.
Whether it is tangible or intangible, getting money from CIC is a great thing for Hanhua.
"Don't worry, with Hanhua's current investment level and its position in the global financial community, CIC will definitely not miss Hanhua as long as it invests."
Jiang Xiaoyang nodded and said no more.
"By the way, why do you think CIC does not pay attention to the domestic market? Team leader Lou said that domestic VC institutions should be selected."
Xu Liang was suddenly curious about this matter. Lou Wei speaks impeccably, and no one can guess his true thoughts.
Even he had memories of his past life, and he met Schwarzman, Mak Jincheng and others on the road. Only then did he conclude that CIC's investment strategy still followed the same path as in his previous life.
Jiang Xiaoyang sighed: "Do you think I'm Zhang Fan and those idiots? IDG has been in contact with relevant units in Yuzhou recently. Regarding venture capital, these local yamen are very careful, but they keep making mistakes, let alone CIC.
There is a high probability that VC institutions will not be hired as As an external fund manager, it is difficult to say that I am willing to devote some energy to the domestic market.
I guess, I am only focused on making big money overseas. "
Xu Liang was silent. His main focus is on his own companies and overseas markets.
Especially when the subprime mortgage crisis was gradually deepening, he did not dare to be distracted at all.
It was far less clear than Jiang Xiaoyang in the capital.
With her reminder, some memories of past lives quickly emerged.
As she said, CIC is too concerned about foreign countries and wants to achieve results early.
Why did he mention military training and why did he use Temasek as an example? Didn’t he want to remind CIC to invest prudently?
As a result, Team Leader Lou seemed to obey his advice, but then he turned around and started negotiating with Blackstone and Morgan Stanley.
You must know that the 200 billion in funds have not been allocated yet, and the company has not yet been officially listed, so we have to invest billions and billions in one go.
Too anxious.
“Forget it, forget about these troubles and go home.”
Jiang Xiaoyang nodded.
Back to Yindian Bridge Courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Wenyang, who was already two and a half years old, ran over excitedly, holding a small black puppy in his hand.
It looks like a Chinese pastoral dog.
"Dad, Mom."
Holding his son, Jiang Xiaoyang patted him with doting eyes.
“Where have you been? Why are you so dirty?”
"Didn't go anywhere."
"Yangyang, where did this dog come from?" Xu Liang asked.
I hadn’t seen him when he left in the morning.
“Uncle sent it.”
“Uncle?”
The two of them were stunned, and Jiang Xiaoyang said: "Has your uncle been here?"
"Yes."
The little guy nodded fiercely and led the dog forward like a treasure, "Dad, The dog my uncle gave me is so fun.”
He smiled and touched his son’s head. Before he could speak, Jiang Xiaoyang had already asked.
“Is there anyone at my house this morning?”
The servant who had been standing nearby said quickly: "He said his name is Jiang Xiaojun and he is your brother."
"Did you say anything?"
"I want you to go back with Mr. Xu in the evening Let’s eat at home.”
Jiang Xiaoyang looked happy and quickly took out his cell phone to call.
The call was answered quickly.
"Brother, are you back?" A rich voice sounded.
“I just have three days of family leave, so I’ll come back to see you. By the way, you, Xu Liang, Yang Yang, and Lei Zi can come over for dinner tonight. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. , just in time to get together.”
“Okay, let’s pack up and go.”
After Jiang Xiaoyang hung up the phone.
"Brother-in-law is back?"
"He said he took three days' family leave."
Xu Liang nodded and picked up his son.
“Let’s wash our hands, change our clothes and go to grandpa’s house.”
“Dad, my dog.”
"Let's play with the dog when he comes back."
"No, no, I want to play with the dog, woohoo..."
Master Xu, who was rejected in his excitement, just cried for you.
After finally comforting me, I changed my clothes and drove to my father-in-law’s house with my little son who had just learned to crawl.
Jiang Xiaojun, who is in the army, cannot easily return home. It is a rare occasion for him to come back, so his home is naturally very lively.
My father-in-law also got off work early.
The family had dinner.
The women gathered around the children and chatted about their parents' shortcomings.
Jiang Weiguo took Jiang Xiaojun and Xu Liang to drink and chat about national events that interested them.
“Went to the Great Hall today?” Jiang Weiguo asked.
Xu Liang nodded.
"How do you feel?"
"Team Leader Lou asked a lot, but his tone was very strict and he didn't reveal any information." Xu Liang said.
"Lou Wei is still capable. If possible, you can cooperate more."
"Cooperating with CIC is what we dream of. As long as Team Leader Lou is willing, we will definitely accept it. .”
Xu Liang hesitated for a moment and did not mention the matter of asking CIC to pay more attention to domestic business investment.
If you put forward conditions on the spot, no one can say anything.
But if you make a report behind your back and ask your father-in-law to intervene, that is overstepping your authority and is very annoying.
Even if Jiang Weiguo understands the rules of the game and doesn't say anything, his words will have no effect, so he might as well not say anything.
After watching his father finish chatting, Jiang Xiaojun on the side said quickly.
"Xu Liang, do your companies still accept retired military personnel?"
"Of course, we have been cooperating with the veterans' affairs bureaus in various places."
"That's good. I'm here There is a soldier who hopes you can help me arrange it."
"Isn't it easy for a soldier to make you take the initiative?" Xu Liangxiao asked.
Jiang Xiaojun sighed, "He is different from ordinary retired soldiers. He has a hot temper, a straight-laced temper, and can't speak. He is also arrogant and caused me a lot of trouble when he was in the team.
But his ability is absolutely insignificant. He has achieved second-class merit twice and third-class merit five times. ”
Xu Liang was a little surprised.
In peacetime, most of the first-class merits were obtained lying down. It is already very impressive to get the second-class merit, let alone twice.
Jiang Weiguo said: "With so many military exploits, even if you don't stay in the army, you will have good arrangements when you get there. Is it worth asking Xu Liang?" "
Jiang Xiaojun smiled bitterly and said: "During the army competition, he accidentally broke his leg. Although he was fine and his leg was saved, he was lame.
At first, I planned to arrange him to the logistics department, but he said he didn't want to go.
What do you mean, you can’t be special. "
"Later I begged local comrades to let him go to the Ministry of Armed Forces, but this guy was unwilling to go, saying that he could not embarrass the country.
There was really no choice but to arrange for him to work in a local enterprise.
I never thought that only a week had passed and he had fought three times.
If I hadn't called him to plead for mercy and lost some money, he would have been caught. "
"Now that his reputation in their local area has spread, it is difficult to find any good job.
Having learned this lesson, I didn’t feel comfortable arranging it with someone else, so after thinking about it, I had no choice but to ask you. "
Xu Liang smiled and said: "This guy is really tough. "
"He is such a stupid person, I am so angry with him. "Jiang Xiaojun said.
Although he said this, seeing how he could lower his face to beg for her, it was obvious that he really regarded the other person as a brother.
"Xu Liang, if you have a suitable job, please help arrange it. Soldiers bleed and shed tears to protect their families and their country. We must not chill their hearts." Jiang Weiguo said.
"Dad, don't worry, I have plenty of work here." Turning to look at Jiang Xiaojun, "Brother, as a soldier, you are probably used to military life and it is difficult to adapt to the local pace of life. You are holding fire in your heart, so you always Fight."
"He has been a soldier for twelve years and now he is retired. It is really difficult to adapt." Jiang Xiaojun nodded.
“Do you think this will work?
I have several bases for training security personnel in the Mainland and in Xiangjiang. They are all managed in a militarized manner. Let him be an instructor. ”
Red Shield Security, a subsidiary of Hongyan, has training bases in the Mainland, Hong Kong, Myanmar, and Africa.
But the training model of each local base is different.
Mainland This place only trains ordinary security personnel, and its customers include not only Xu's companies, but also provide security personnel to other companies in the society.
There is nothing illegal.
"How is the treatment?"
"8,000 a month, dual repairs, five insurances and one housing fund. If the performance is good, the company will also provide internal house purchase indicators."
In 2007, this condition was good.
“I’ll have him report to you in a few days.”
After Xu Liang nodded, “You can send me his information later.”
"Okay...Xu Liang, thank you."
"We are all one family, you're welcome."
Time passes very quickly, especially when chatting.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Xu Liang left with his family.
……
For several days, there was no news from CIC.
Just when Xu Liang gave up hope, he suddenly received a call from Secretary Lou Wei, inviting him to visit China Investment Group.
After a brief preparation, Xu Liang came to the New Poly Building located at No. 1 Chaoyangmen North Street.
CIC has a very high administrative rank. Along with China Railway and CITIC, it is the only three state-owned enterprises with high-ranking officials. However, there are currently only dozens of employees working in the building.
Xu Liang is not surprised at all, even if the preparations for the company are completed.
The number of employees is at most three to five hundred.
Because in large financial institutions, it is normal for each person to manage US$3.5 billion per person, evenly divided by head.
Led by Secretary Lou Wei, Xu Liang walked into his office.
The interior layout is relatively simple. Only the red flags on the table and behind the desk indicate that this office is not simple.
"Mr. Xu, welcome."
Lou Wei eagerly welcomed him in.
After a few polite words, Lou Wei greeted him and sat down on the sofa in the office.
The secretary brought two cups of tea and then gently closed the door.
Xu Liang didn't bother to care whether Lou Wei was a first-grade or second-grade official, he picked up the tea on the table and drank it.
“Good tea.”
Lou Wei smiled slightly.
Everyone who knows him well knows that Boss Xu likes to drink tea.
In order to entertain the other party well, he brought his annual special supply of tea.
But considering the importance of what he was going to talk about next, he didn't feel sorry for his little tea.
"Mr. Xu, I take the liberty of inviting you over today. Actually, I want to have an in-depth chat with you about external fund managers."
Xu Liang put down his tea cup and pretended to listen carefully.
