How Did I Become a God
Vol 2 Chapter 278: Financial Salon (1)
The layout of Tan Qin's villa is not the traditional European and American villa: front courtyard and backyard, garden swimming pool. It covers a larger area and is more private.
After entering the villa's gate, it takes a few minutes to drive forward to reach the entrance of the lobby on the first floor of the villa where Jing Gao is now located. The interior style is simple and atmospheric, partial to wood and coffee colors.
"Mr. Jing, please!" Entering the door of the villa, the old butler in an English tuxedo waiting at the door slightly bowed to greet him. Tan Qin again enthusiastically extended his hand to invite, bringing Jing Gao and Guan Yujia into the house.
Tan Qin’s late fathers were once active on the political stage. But that is all over. He now mainly depends on the care of his uncles. In the eyes of real power figures, Jing Gao is now a "little shrimp", not enough to be on the stage at all. But Tan Qinke does not have that qualification.
In today's capital circle, Jing Gao is now what Ouyang Wan said yesterday: You are a big star! Big shot. Therefore, Tan Qin personally went out to greet him. Although he was neither humble nor overbearing, he was very enthusiastic.
The living room is spacious, furnished with sofas, coffee tables, artworks, etc. Adjacent rooms are connected. At this time, many people were drinking tea and communicating in it.
The so-called "salon" is an imported term. You can generally refer to "Our Wife's Living Room" written by Bing Xin back then. Or see the episode of the hit TV series "Ode to Joy", and Andy went to Tan Zongming's villa to attend a party scene.
The official start time of the salon "Financial Wednesday" is three o'clock in the afternoon. But Tan Qin was on the outskirts of the city, and no one happened to arrive at three o'clock. Those who like this kind of social occasion can come early. Those who don't like it can come later and leave after listening to the latest news in the industry.
"The house of President Tan is very good!" Jing Gao looked around and praised. Because he came here for the first time, he came half an hour earlier. This approach undoubtedly made Tan Qin very comfortable. This means a kind of respect.
"Thank you." Tan Qin beckoned and asked the waiter to bring drinks, and said sincerely: "Mr. Jing, the amount of friends coming now is not enough. If you want to talk about the future development trend of Uber China, you'd better wait."
Jing smiled, "Mr. Tan, thank you for your reminder." To the waiter: "Assistant Guan can't drink enough. Could you please bring a cup of tea."
Tan Qin smiled and nodded. Jing Gao treated him as his face. It was almost a semi-public relationship with this beautiful assistant. In fact, it was an expression of being close to him. "Ms. Jing, this is my business card."
Just as they exchanged their business cards, it happened that Shen Nanpeng from Hongbin China came over with a wine glass. Tan Qin makes an introduction. The three exchanged greetings, and Tan Qin said goodbye, "You guys talk."
Tan Qin went to a sofa in the living room and sat down. Immediately someone asked: "Old Tan, who is the young man you brought in?"
"That's right. Mr. Tan, this is a new face. Now who else is worthy of you to meet at the door in person?"
Tan Qin knocked Erlang’s leg, holding a wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile: “Aren’t you talking very hot in the WeChat group yesterday? This is your topic person, Jing Gao of the Phoenix Fund.”
"No way?"
A pair of eyes looked at the young man in front of the French window, and looked up. The news quietly dispersed: Mr. Jing is here.
Hongbin China is well-known in the domestic venture capital circle. Shen Nanpeng is well-known among Chinese entrepreneurs. But Jing Gao really didn't know Shen Nanpeng. Even if there was a little holiday before. But this is the first time the two have met.
Shen Nanpeng is 50 years old, with short hair, round face and a pair of eyes. Wearing a light blue suit because the weather is a bit cold in early autumn. There is a woolen sweater in it. After Tan Qin left, he held the wine glass for a moment and said, "Ms. Jing, I need to apologize to you."
Shen Nanpeng entered the venture capital field in 2005. In the past ten years, he has invested in almost half of the Internet companies: Sina, JD, AutoNavi, 360, Noah, Vipshop, Alibaba, Douban, Dianping, Meituan, Lv Mama, Tuniu, etc. .
But, look at the information carefully.
When he entered the venture capital circle in his first year, none of the companies he invested in exceeded US$10 million. At that time, the funds under his management were 50 million U.S. dollars. By 2016, he has invested in more than 300 companies with a total asset management fund of approximately US$9 billion.
Do you understand?
From the perspective of making money, entrepreneurship, and business, this person can be a genius!
In ten years, pay attention, he is not a rebirth, nor is he from a place like that. He can increase the funds he manages from 50 million U.S. dollars to 9 billion U.S. dollars, which is quite terrifying!
Which boss does not love such talents? Which partner does not want to do business with him?
But, for such an outstanding figure, how does the amount of funds he manages compare with Jing Gao? It pales in comparison! In the Internet venture capital industry, Ali and Tencent are at the dad level. It feels like they are unlimited money. However, the actual funds available for Ali Capital are only 20 billion U.S. dollars. How does this amount of funds compare to the height of the well?
Through these two comparisons, we can roughly understand the position of Jing Gao in the venture capital circle and the Internet business circle at this moment!
Jing Gao’s Phoenix Fund spent US$8.2 billion to acquire Uber China and about US$1.8 billion to acquire LeEco’s asset package. The combined strength revealed is very terrifying. Numbers are not just numbers!
Therefore, the turbulent emotions here in the magic city can be said to be a "feast of wealth" on the surface, because Jing Gao spoke to the outside world! But in essence, it is a continuation of the impact brought by Phoenix Fund's acquisition of LeEco Asset Package!
We must be soberly aware of this: Phoenix Fund is a company in the domestic venture capital circle that can rival Ali and Tencent, or even surpass it!
This is the first time Jing Gao has released a signal to the outside world after he became famous. The capital circle on the magic city gave him a very positive feedback: pursuit!
The "festival" between Shen Nanpeng and Jing Gao before Jing Gao became famous. Otherwise, how could he be stupid? He didn't know if Jing Gao was out of "commercial competition" or unconsciously. In short, Jing Gao used his fame after his "famous" to the extreme.
Fame is inherently time-sensitive. This is almost the same as the Weibo hot spot. And Jing Gao's participation in this financial salon is to maximize the benefits! Not to mention showing up, brushing his face, he only needs to collect a circle of business cards, this is a very terrifying net. If you can establish personal relationships with people, it's better.
Merchants, the one thing I said was "business in business". Can Jing Gao use the power of this net? As long as he takes out the "money ability", why can't he use it? In layman's terms, his path widened.
Jinggao smiled non-committal, waiting for Shen Nanpeng to come down. Again, an apology is useful. What do you want the police to do?
Shen Nanpeng had been prepared for a long time, and said sincerely: "Mr. Jing, I wonder if you are interested in investing in Hongbin China?"
The Chinese philosophy is dialectical and unified. It's the "Tai Chi" that Taoism talks about. Crisis, danger contains opportunities. He offended Mr. Jing, this is a crisis. According to the news he learned from some channels, Mr. Jing really wants to deal with him with all his heart, and the projects he recently invested will basically be without a loss. For example, if Mr. Jing releases the words, why not buy the shares of Didi in the hands of Hongbin China?
Hongbin China’s shareholders are expected to kill him.
Itaka is a little surprised. Shen Nanpeng's meaning is translated as: Big brother, can I work for you?
The full name of Hongbin China is: Hongbin Capital China Fund. The information on the Internet tells how awesome Hongbin China is and which companies it has invested in. But how the funds are raised is as secretive as possible.
To put it bluntly, this is like a private equity fund. It's just that instead of investing in the stock market, futures, bonds and other markets, it's doing venture capital. Under normal circumstances, this kind of fund shares are very difficult to get. They are not short of investment money.
Many people always don't understand what China's foreign capital will do after it comes in. Apart from the traditional methods of opening factories, it is estimated that there are many foreign shareholders in Hongbin China.
Jing raised his glass high and touched Shen Nanpeng, calmly said: "I put 500 million US dollars in my name."
Shen Nanpeng breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Jing Gao would directly throw 1 billion dollars over. Then he has to be busy spending money this year, looking for investment projects everywhere. People invest in dividends! Too much money is to kill yourself.
"Okay. Mr. Jing, I will toast you again. I wish Uber become the leader of online ride-hailing as soon as possible."
Jing Gao smiled and nodded, giving Shen Nanpeng a smile. Almost everyone he encountered after coming to the Demon Capital was human spirits. For example: President Mo and Shen Nanpeng. I don't know if it's because of his elevation. Said: "
Mr. Shen, do you know Mr. Zhou of 360? I just bought Coolpad from LeTV~www.ltnovel.com~ Coolpad cooperated with 360 to make a strange cool, and there was a lot of trouble last year. Coolpad also has a stake in Qiku 20. I want to ask Mr. Shen to do me a favor and dispose of this part of the shares. It doesn't matter whether money is money or not, just handle it cleanly. I owe Mr. Shen a favor for this matter. "
360's cardinal is notoriously difficult in the industry. He started as a rogue software. To put it aside, Wanda’s Xiao Wang and 360 have cooperated, and Xiao Wang’s business kingdom collapsed. The fundamental reason was the opposition to Tencent. But did 360 make a reasonable and legal push in the process of his defeat? This is really hard to say!
The internal opinion of Phoenix Fund is to sell 20 of Qiku shares to 360. Cut open.
When Shen Nanpeng heard it, he still looked like a smile, but he was obviously close to one-third, and said: "Look at Mr. Jing, what kind of person is unkind? You can invite me to dinner later."
Jing Gaoneng has done such a big business, it is indeed level. Please take it down, Jing Gao, and the relationship between him and Mr. Jing will naturally get closer. Of course, this is also because he still has a bad name in this industry. After Mr. Jing reconciled with him, isn't this intentional to associate with him?
Hey, no. Why do I seem to run errands for Mr. Jing, Mr. Jing is willing to associate with me, and I am still honored for doing it?
Shen Nanpeng reacted and couldn't help but smile wryly. There are talents in Jiangshan generation.
While chatting here, Tan Qin came over with a smile and whispered: "Ms. Jing, time is almost the same. Please come with me."
The heavyweights at the gathering today are almost there. It's time to talk.
