Rebirth is very troublesome
Chapter 743 Two Receptions
Chapter 743 Two Receptions ([-])
Early the next morning, Guo Yuan took Chu Sisi and Zhou Aiqing to work on the three things arranged by Wang Yu.
After having free time, Wang Yu started to travel as a backpacker, taking his two bodyguards Chi Guocai and Mu Shaofeng with him.
The visit lasted for three days. If Bruce hadn't called to ask him out, Wang Yu, who had just finished visiting the east coast, might have taken his own private jet to go further afield.
"Mr. King, I really envy your relaxed state of mind!"
In the villa, I saw Wang Yu who had just returned from the dusty scene and had just taken a shower. Bruce, who was also wearing a beach suit, smiled and shook hands with him.
"The last few times I came here were just short stops. It's rare that I have free time this time to walk around and look around."
Wang Yu signaled Bruce to be casual and sat on the beach chair: "I originally wanted to rent a boat and go fishing in the Atlantic Ocean, but it's a pity that it's not the tuna fishing season."
"If Mr. Wang is really interested, there is nothing we can do."
Bruce smiled and said: "The rules are made for ordinary people. For people like us, there will always be a way."
Waving his hand, Wang Yu took out a cigar and lit it: "No need, it's just a little hobby. People must learn to restrain their desires!"
"No wonder you are so successful."
Bruce looked at Wang Yu and exclaimed: "I have had a preliminary understanding of Mr. Wang's industries in the past two days. I didn't expect that you are still one of the leaders in China's Internet industry, especially your main industry, engine technology. There are many hidden things below. Few future unicorn companies”
"Compared to Alibaba and Tencent, my current scale is still far behind. The so-called leader is just a way of saying it to save face."
Wang Yu said modestly: "Actually, the real big bosses make decisions before making moves. Let's first look at the novel thinking and entrepreneurial direction of the younger generation. Once the track is mature and then rely on huge financial resources and manpower to squeeze in, the big bosses will still be in the end." Boss, we pioneers can only seize the opportunity and drink some soup."
"Mr. Wang's way of thinking has some traces of reverse thinking."
Bruce laughed and said: "It's not exactly like what you said. First movers have the advantage of being the first. As long as they get enough funding and network support, they can still become industry leaders."
“Like Facebook?”
Wang Yu responded while smoking a cigar: "But once the myth of an entrepreneur like Zuckerberg disappears, he will still be kicked out by the board of directors behind him, just like Old Joe, how many times?"
The chat between the two seemed relaxed and happy, but in fact there was always something hidden behind the scenes.
After preliminary testing, both Wang Yu and Bruce found that the other party was a master, so they stopped making rounds.
"I came here mainly for investment."
Bruce put aside the twists and turns and went straight to the topic: "Whether it is a shared bicycle project or an orange delivery project, Goldman Sachs is very interested. We have no shortage of funds and connections. We are definitely a worthy partner for you. "
Wang Yu smiled noncommittally and did not reply directly to Bruce. Instead, he asked about something else.
"I heard you introduce me at the previous reception that you have been in Europe for the first half of the year?"
Bruce was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why Wang Yu had to go around the bush. It was clear that through the test just now, everyone understood the truth. They are all smart people, and it would be easier to communicate directly.
But seeing Wang Yu's more serious expression, he still shrugged his shoulders and said, "Didn't Mr. Wang say that night, the economic situation there seems to be not that good, I can tell you very clearly: there is a crisis in Europe. A crisis is brewing, and after the crisis it will be devastated, and there will always be some good unlucky ones picked up!"
Nodding, Wang Yu thought to himself that he had guessed something right.
"I still have certain expectations for cooperation with Goldman Sachs."
Then Wang Yu began to raise his own request: "There is actually one thing I expected to do when I come to the United States this trip."
Bruce raised the corners of his mouth, with a genuine smile on his face.
"Mr. Wang, I said that Goldman Sachs intends to participate in the two projects of shared bicycles and fruit delivery. We have always been enthusiastic and generous in helping our partners."
"I want to acquire a small car company!"
This time it was Wang Yu's turn to be direct: "But there is no way."
"In my impression, there are quite a few joint venture car companies in China, right?"
Bruce is worthy of being an executive of Goldman Sachs Investment Bank: "I remember Volkswagen, GM, and Hyundai in Bangziguo. Especially Toyota and Honda in the small days. With all due respect, Mr. Wang, it is a bit late for you to get involved in car production now. Alright?"
"I have no intention of becoming a car giant."
Wang Yu smiled: "In my plan, as long as the new company after the acquisition forms a new brand product and occupies even a small share in the Chinese market, it will naturally be acquired by a large car company!"
Building cars is no joke, and Bruce still thinks Wang Yu's idea is too taken for granted.
"What if you pick up a bad guy cheaply?"
Bruce: "."
After being stunned for several minutes, the Goldman Sachs investment bank executive came back to his senses. At this time, the disapproval he looked at Wang Yu was no longer the same.
"It turns out that you didn't ask me about Europe unintentionally!"
Bruce connected the two paragraphs of the chat with Wang Yu just now, and then understood the meaning of Wang Yu's words.
Since there is an economic crisis brewing in Europe, and Bruce is waiting there to take advantage of it, why can't the name of a small bankrupt car company be added to the list?
"I now understand a little bit why Rainer loves and hates you."
At this moment, Bruce said with a slightly exaggerated smile: "I can always think of the most suitable solution to the problem from an unexpected angle, and this solution is actually hard to refuse!"
"Look, don't we have a common topic for cooperation?"
Wang Yu flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said with a smile on his face: "Let's ride the wealth train heading to Southeast Asia together. Considering the bad mood of our partners feeling the loss of profits, Goldman Sachs will grant me a small wish by the way. I can make up for it at home.”
"Hahaha"
After hearing Wang Yu's almost self-deprecating statement, Bruce burst out laughing: "Mr. Wang, your idea is definitely feasible!"
"So how big a piece of cake do you want to get?"
Now that the prerequisites have been met, Wang Yu started to talk about the most practical things: "You know, in Mobike (Southeast Asia) Technology, IDG occupies 70% of the equity. How much equity can be released for financing at that time? Renard opinions matter.”
"If we only discuss the investment banking business, IDG does not need to accommodate us at Goldman Sachs, but don't forget that this time we are entering the Southeast Asian market. In terms of external relations, there is definitely a big gap between IDG and us. Renard must also do this. To admit it.”
Bruce had a look of confidence on his face: "So not only will he consider your opinions, he will definitely not ignore our opinions!"
What he said simply means that he has already regarded himself as a collaborator, otherwise how could he say that?
"As for Guocheng Food Delivery, although the equity is now in my hands, only 25% of this round of financing will be provided, and IDG has 10% priority."
Wang Yu looked at Bruce and said, "How much do you want at Goldman Sachs?" "If it's just orange takeout, my requirement is at least 10%."
Bruce also sat up straight and looked into Wang Yu's eyes: "If we can get at least 5% of the equity in the shared bicycle project, we can appropriately reduce it to at least 5% in the Guocheng takeout project!"
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Wang Yu suddenly smiled and nodded: "From my personal point of view, no problem!"
The implication of Wang Yu's words is obvious: In the shared bicycle project, you have to deal with Renard!
"I really don't want to face this old fox!"
While smiling and shaking hands with Wang Yu, Bruce muttered: "This guy has been promoting your demonstration idea in the circle recently. He clearly wants to push up the valuation of Mobike (Southeast Asia). It’s probably going to be another difficult negotiation!”
This is a good thing for Wang Yu. After all, Wang Yu still has 30% equity in it.
Fortunately, he got what he wanted from Wang Yu and was in a good mood, so he started chatting about other things.
"In the future, Mr. Wang's Internet companies will need to raise funds, so don't forget your old friends?"
In Bruce's eyes, several Internet companies under Wang Yu Engine Technology have great potential, and they are very attractive to him.
As for Guoke Electronic Technology
To be honest, Bruce really didn't pay much attention to it.
There are giants like Nokia, Motorola, and Samsung in front of them, and behind them there are rising stars like Apple that have the ability to develop their own systems. Rumored "assembly machines" like the Guoke I generation are actually no different from those domestic mobile phones made in China.
Even if a new generation of smart phones is temporarily released, this advantage will soon be submerged under the powerful research and development capabilities of the Big Mac. Once the new generation of smart phones from major mobile phone companies comes out, the initial dividends of the first generation of guokr will cease to exist.
Apple will release a new generation of smart phones at the end of this month, which is the best proof!
"As long as I get financing, I'm a fool, and under the same conditions, the one with the highest price will get it!"
Wang Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled. As for what he was thinking, no one knew except himself.
"I knew you were no easier to deal with than Renard!"
Bruce thought that Wang Yu still had the mentality of a businessman pursuing profit. Of course, this mentality was natural to him. This was Western business thinking.
The two chatted happily, and just when the servant came to refill the coffee, Bruce suddenly looked around.
"Mr. Wang, none of your female companions seem to be around?"
"They are also my assistants and are helping me with some things recently."
Wang Yu smiled: "One of them includes the major event of inspecting American car companies."
Bruce blinked: "Haven't you already considered Europe?"
"This company will be thrown to her to play with in the future, so let's think of it as training her!"
Wang Yu shrugged: "She herself is quite happy."
After the maid retreated far away, Bruce smiled mysteriously: "If you're bored, would you like to go to an interesting place?"
How did Brother Qiang stumble back then?
Who knows what Bruce is thinking about this kind of thing? If they set up a trap and leave some evidence, Wang Yu believes that even if ten years later, they will still find a way to pull it out.
Just take a look and understand Wang's strange experiences. He is not immune, let alone Wang Yu?
But looking back, I still have to have someone by my side.
Otherwise, it will be easy for others to take advantage of you!
After laughingly rejecting Bruce's "kindness", he also realized that his invitation was a bit reckless.
Fortunately, the goal was achieved, Bruce immediately said goodbye, and Wang Yu got up and sent him to the parking lot.
Before Bruce's car left the gate of the villa, two cars crossed him and drove into the front yard, just as Guo Yuan came back.
"Boss, are there guests?"
Guo Yuan went straight to Wang Yu as soon as she got off the car: "I guess it was Bruce from Goldman Sachs, one of the two people that night?"
Between Connery and Bruce, Guo Yuan chose him.
Wang Yu nodded: "We talked about some cooperation matters, which was quite pleasant."
"Goldman Sachs has a great global influence. When it comes to deterring the Mitsui family, they are more powerful."
Guo Yuan has done a lot of homework recently, and her mind is full of this information: "They themselves are one of the shareholders of the big consortiums in China."
"You have me, and I have you!"
Wang Yu did not continue this topic. He was thinking about one thing at the moment.
"Boss, the list invited by President Renard has been given to the company hosting the reception. They will provide the complete list and quotation for the reception by [-] noon tomorrow at the latest!"
Guo Yuan had a phone call with Wang Yu last night, but she may have heard of the names of the people in the list given by Renard, but she really didn't know any of them.
So he directly empowered Guo Yuan and let her make the decision.
"I'm actually thinking about something."
As Wang Yu walked toward the villa, he said to Guo Yuan who was following him: "Would you like to invite people from the Guan, Guo, and Cai families to this cocktail party!"
"It depends on what you think, boss."
Guo Yuan said with a smile on her face: "If you plan to enter the Southeast Asian market again and give them a "big surprise", it is best not to invite them. If there is no such fun, invite them over and directly demonstrate. It’s also a good idea.”
"Hahaha"
Wang Yu, who was exposed by Guo Yuan, smiled instead of being annoyed. He turned to look at Chu Sisi who was following behind him and said, "Look, Director Guo is in a bad mood now. He will tease the boss whenever he wants. It's really courageous." "
When Wang Yu said this, Guo Yuan couldn't help but think of the scene when she lived in the villa on the first day, and she lowered her head in shame and dared not speak.
Later, Zhou Aiqing also returned to the villa and reported today's work to Wang Yu.
Wang Yu walked towards the restaurant and said in a teasing tone:
"Report directly to Director Guo, she is the biggest tonight!"
Let’s post one big chapter first, and the other chapter later.
(End of this chapter)
Early the next morning, Guo Yuan took Chu Sisi and Zhou Aiqing to work on the three things arranged by Wang Yu.
