Chapter 437: Congratulations
The Kunpeng Fund’s blockade period is one year.
It officially started on January 1, 2003. It has only been three months now, and there are still nine months until it expires.
So, they don’t need to raise funds at all.
“Kunpeng No. 1 Fund is used to invest in soybeans, and Kunpeng No. 2 Fund is used to invest in other areas.”
"Other aspects?"
Jiang Xiaoyang asked curiously.
“Petroleum, iron ore, and coal are all good investments.” Xu Liangdao.
Thanks to the rapid development of China's economy, the prices of energy and raw materials have risen rapidly, and we have fallen into a stage where what we buy is more expensive than what we buy.
He cannot change the general trend, but he can make money by taking advantage of it.
"Your ambition is really getting bigger and bigger now." Jiang Xiaoyang said with emotion.
She found that she could no longer keep up with the other party's ideas when it came to investment.
"Ambition is only one aspect, the most important thing is safety."
Seeing that she didn't understand, Xu Liang sighed and continued.
“The more money we have, the more support we get, and the more stable the company can develop. As for the specific profit, it becomes less important.”
Jiang Xiaoyang heard what he meant.
The tone became serious.
“You mean, someone will secretly target us?”
“That’s for sure. This speculation, Larry Ellison, Quantum Fund, Elliott Management Company They all lost a lot of money in the early stage. Although they made a lot of money in the later stage, this does not mean that they have forgotten the loss of money before.
Not surprisingly, these guys with deep connections in the United States must have. To cause trouble for us.
We have no foundation in the United States. If we don’t want to sit still and wait for death, the only way is to use the amazing rate of return on this oil speculation to win over those old wealthy people and political forces.
So, Kunpeng No. 2 Fund must be established immediately whether we want it or not, and the more funds we can raise, the better.
In short, the more people bet on us, the safer we Hanhua will be in the United States and even the entire Western world.
As Taizu said, make many friends and make few enemies. ”
Jiang Xiaoyang also comes from a political family and is no stranger to this kind of thing.
"Xu Liang, are you thinking too much? In fact, things haven't reached this point yet."
"I would like to do so, but unfortunately the enemy does not allow it. You can open the online version of the Wall Street Journal and take a look. . Wow, you almost blew me away."
Curious Jiang Xiaoyang hung up the phone and turned on the computer to log on to the Internet.
Having studied abroad for two years, her English skills are naturally good.
I quickly found the online version of the Wall Street Journal.
As soon as I opened it, a photo popped out.
The man in the photo is wearing a white pullover, light gray sweatpants and white travel shoes. He has a fresh face and a strong body.
Crossing his legs and sitting casually on the chair, he exudes arrogance and confidence from the inside out.
It is my own stinky man.
Jiang Xiaoyang unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and looked at it for a while before continuing to look back.
A bold and enlarged title comes into view.
"The Coronation of a New King - The Most Successful Investor in History"
"On March 20, when the whole world was shocked by the military operation of the British and American coalition forces to save Iraq, there was a person But behind the scenes, he reaped the greatest benefits of this military operation.
He is the founder of Hanhua Capital, 'Xu Liang'.
I believe some people remember that it was published in "Times" in January this year. In an interview, Xu Liang, CEO of Hanhua Capital, publicly stated that he actively invested in long crude oil futures because he was optimistic about China and the global economy.
That's what he said, and that's what he did.
And it was very thorough.
According to the investigation of this reporter, Xu Liang owns many companies.
First, New Dream Education Group.
This is a comprehensive education group located in China that focuses on art education and subject education. It is a leader in the private education field within China.
Although it has not been listed yet, its net revenue in 2002 reached US$225 million and net profit was US$73 million.
According to the current standard of valuation of 30 times net profit for Chinese education companies, the market value of New Dream Education Group is US$2.19 billion.
Second, Jianlibao Group.
This is an enterprise group located in China that mainly operates electrolyte drinks, juices and drinking water.
It owns three major brands: Jianlibao, Huiyuan and Tianshan Bingquan.
Among them, Jianlibao and Huiyuan are the first in the two major fields of Huaxia Point Value Beverages and Juices respectively, occupying more than 30% of the market share.
In 2002, Jianlibao Group’s net revenue was US$1.37 billion and net profit was US$389 million.
Similar to New Dream Education Group, Jianlibao Group is also not listed and follows the prevailing valuation standards in the beverage industry.
The market value of Jianlibao Group is US$7.7 billion. ”
Because Jianlibao Group and New Dream Group hired PricewaterhouseCoopers or Deloitte to conduct detailed evaluations for loans, the Wall Street Journal only needs to spend a little money to obtain this information.
Jiang Xiaoyang is more concerned about Jianlibao Group.
“I didn’t expect that in just two years, Yuhui would develop Jianlibao Group so well.”
She knew that Jianlibao Group was developing rapidly, annexed Huiyuan, and asked Yao Ming to be its spokesperson. Two things caused Jianlibao's revenue to skyrocket.
But she still underestimated the impact of these two things on Jianlibao.
After reading the news about Jianlibao again, continue reading. "Third, Yahoo! Japan.
It is understood that Xu Liang owns 10% of Yahoo! Japan's shares, and the current share price of Yahoo Japan has exceeded US$32 billion. In other words, this 10% stake is worth $3.2 billion.
Using two companies and 10% of Yahoo Japan's shares as collateral, Xu Liang and Hanhua Capital raised at least US$8 billion in capital to invest in the global oil futures market.
Under ten times the leverage, 80 billion U.S. dollars were leveraged, disrupting the global oil landscape.
According to our reporter’s understanding, Hanhua had entered the long oil market before being interviewed by Time Magazine. In other words, his average position price was between 22 and 23 US dollars per barrel.
The current oil price is US$35.9/barrel.
This means that Hanhua earned almost $13 per barrel of oil invested.
According to the other party’s position, he made at least US$47.2 billion in pre-tax net profit.
In 1992, George Soros defeated the Bank of England and made a huge profit of US$1 billion. He was therefore called 'The Man Who Beat Britain'.
Currently, Bridgewater, the world's largest hedge fund, was founded in 1975 and manages US$120 billion. It has earned US$37.6 billion in returns for clients in 28 years.
One of them is old, the other is accumulated over many years.
In comparison, it has only been three years since Hanhua was established, and Xu Liang is only 22 years old.
I have completely fallen at the feet of this Chinese man. He is the youngest investment genius in human history, a god-like man! ”
After reading the whole article, Jiang Xiaoyang also felt a strong conspiracy at the same time as Yourong Yan.
Took out his mobile phone and dialed.
After the connection, Xu Liang smiled and said: "Have you finished reading?"
"Yes."
"What do you think?"
"A god-like man!" Jiang Xiaoyang smiled road.
Xu Liang looked stunned, then smiled and said: "Then you are not a goddess now."
"Are you the goddess?"
Xu Liang could imagine Jiang Xiaoyang rolling his eyes across the phone.
“I’m not kidding you anymore. The Wall Street Journal is obviously flattering, what are you going to do?”
“Didn’t I tell you the method?” Xu Liang said.
“Kunpeng No. 2 Fund?”
"Hmm...Although the guy hiding in the dark is determined to kill me, he has also made a name for me. Now, we can just use this reputation to attract more funds and expand our circle of friends.
In addition, this Although I made a lot of money this time, I rode on the wind and relied solely on my own ability. It is not difficult to resolve it like short selling. "
Jiang Xiaoyang thought about it. I think and admit that what Xu Liang said makes sense.
Hanhua is not a weakling who can be exploited by others. As long as he is willing to share and not eat alone, he will not suffer too much criticism.
"I will immediately tell you to go down and register the Kunpeng No. 2 Fund immediately."
"Well. ...Don't carry out fund-raising for Kunpeng No. 2 in China. If anyone asks, let him transfer the funds to Xiangjiang. Convert it into US dollars and reinvest.”
Jiang Xiaoyang understands Xu Liang’s concerns.
Currently, mainland China's capital market is not fully open, and the laws are not sound.
Illegal fund-raising is a serious crime.
After the two chatted in detail for a while, they hung up the phone.
Just as Xu Liang hung up, the phone rang again.
Looked at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
"Xu, congratulations."
Bill Gates's voice came over.
"Has Mr. Gates seen the news?"
"Of course, Hanhua Capital's ultra-high profits have spread throughout the United States, no, it should be said all over the world. I don't know how many people are talking about Hanhua Capital." China.”
Bill Gates’ words were filled with envy.
Although he does not believe that Hanhua really achieved an ultra-high profit of US$47.2 billion, it is certainly not much different.
One investment has caught up to nearly half of his net worth, how could you not be envious?
You know, he has worked hard for more than 20 years to reach his current status, and Xu Liang is only 22 years old.
“The Wall Street Journal’s report was too distorted. In fact, Hanhua did not make that much money from this investment. But we did gain a lot this time.
Gai The US$100 million Mr. Ci invested in Kunpeng has now tripled."
"Really?"
"The Kunpeng Fund will be disclosed on the official website of Hanhua Capital soon. Mr. Gates can take a look at the profit details." Xu Liangdao.
Instead of letting the outside world guess, it would be better for him to take the initiative to announce it.
Having detailed data will also facilitate the investment in Kunpeng 2.
Bill Gates sounded a little more excited, "Mr. Xu, I regret it now. I should have invested more in the first place."
In just a few months, I got three Times the return, even with his net worth, is a rare and huge sum of money.
“If Mr. Gates really wants to invest, he will have an opportunity soon.”
"Oh?"
Xu Liang said directly: "We are registering Kunpeng No. 2 Fund, and we will officially start raising funds from outside on April 1. If Mr. Gates is interested, you can invest."
