Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

"What on earth are you in such a hurry." Qu Li admired Wu Hongning's thick skin. He didn't blame him, but he didn't mean to get close. After all, Huatou and his business are far away, and there is no chance for everyone to cooperate, but Wu Hongning Still keep in touch with him.

"I said before that I want to compensate you, and now I have a very good opportunity. I was worried that you would be short of money, but you have earned 90 million US dollars in such a short period of time, and you don't have to pay taxes. This is too frustrating. jealous."

"Why, you want me to take the initiative to pay taxes, in what name?" Qu Li planned every step, and the overseas copyright of "Comet" was sold to Xiangjiang's Vision Fund, so the overseas income of 90 million US dollars is not taxed ( Taxes are deducted directly at the box office of domestic movies, whether or not the overseas box office share should be paid, and how much is not found, so let’s treat it as a Lionsgate buyout here).

"What are you talking about, am I so stupid?" Wu Hongning continued: "I was worried that you were short of money. Since you have money and have this idea, you might as well give it a try."

"Try what? Tell me clearly."

"There is a securities firm in Huxiang Province that has experienced a cash flow crisis due to long-term poor management and serious losses. It hopes to introduce external investors..."

"You're crazy, what do you want me for?" Qu Li subconsciously thought that Wu's mind was out of order

"Didn't you say that you want to support the smart phone and new energy vehicle industry chain, and acquired this brokerage firm, if you have the ability, you can make it your most beneficial tool."

"You are really crazy. I don't know much about the brokerage business. If the company that was originally losing money is really going to be handed over to me, it will not be tossed to death."

"So what's the matter? There are still few bankrupt companies in this world. I give you at least one chance to be reborn from Nirvana. In case your ideal comes true..."

"But I really don't understand!"

"I think you are born to be that kind of great entrepreneur. Do you understand the Internet, smartphones, clothing, you don't know anything, so you don't need to understand the brokerage business."

"You..." Qu Li was a little speechless. He knows a lot about the Internet industry, and it's not like he's bragging about it too much, but he's a stock investor who doesn't make money, and he knows a lot about a brokerage.

"Don't hesitate, this opportunity is really rare, and there are still many competitors."

"Even if I'm not afraid, and Huxiang Province is not stupid, how could I, a junior high school student, control such a large-scale brokerage?"

"Then buy shares first, prove it to them, and then look for opportunities to hold shares later."

"Why should others give me a chance?"

"First of all, their lack of money is not high-quality assets, and secondly, you are not without advantages."

"What advantage do I have?"

"HSBC and Blackstone are behind you."

"I do not know how?"

"You don't know now!"

"You mean?"

"You can contact HSBC yourself, and Blackstone will leave it to me."

"This, I'm afraid it's not enough. I can't get in touch with the senior management of HSBC."

"Having this name is enough, do you really want them to participate?"

"Also, all my money has entered the capital market, and there is not much money that can be used in the short term. This brokerage shouldn't be cheap, right? Which brokerage?"

"Xiangcai Securities, Blackstone will help you guarantee a loan from the bank."

"You don't have to do this, there's no need. Although brokers are indeed useful to me, the probability of failure is too high..."

"Why, are you afraid that I will cause you to lose money again? And the loss is hundreds of millions more than ten times the last time?"

"It is more important for you to stand firm in Huatou than to help me. There will be opportunities in the future."

"I know, but if I don't do this, how can I prove that I regard you as a brother!"

"Even if you say that, I won't be moved." Qu Li hammered Wu Hongning

"I didn't want to impress you, and the price wasn't as high as you imagined. It's not complicated but it's not easy for Hua to invest in Blackstone. We don't care about them and they have to get something in return."

Qu Li didn't understand, didn't want to listen, and turned a deaf ear.

"By the way, Lehman Brothers is planning to invest in Jumei. Do you want Lehman to join in?"

"You can't let them hold the controlling stake. You have to be confident and follow you. It won't affect much."

"I just want to borrow chickens to lay eggs and ask them to help me regulate the operation of this brokerage." Qu Li is obviously not a good person. He remembers that Lehman Brothers will go bankrupt in the end, otherwise this company will not be allowed to invest in Jumei. Now Well, of course I want to cheat them.

"Then give it a try..." Although Wu Hongning thinks that a brokerage firm is good for Qu Li's future, he doesn't think Qu Li can bring Xiangcai Securities back to life. The introduction of Lehman has both advantages and disadvantages, and the Huxiang region may be biased by then. However, Qu Li's purpose is not to compete with Lehman for control, but to have professional talents to help him invest in the industrial chain. I believe that with this opportunity, Qu Li can fool...

"..." At this time, Qu Li was fearless in the first place, try to see what's wrong, and it won't kill anyone.

Lehman Brothers has been very active in China in the past few years, so I won’t say much about those investment banking projects. In November last year, IBM and Lehman Brothers announced that they would jointly launch a “China Investment Fund” with an initial capital injection of US$180 million. The two parties respectively Injecting an initial capital of US$90 million into the fund shows how attractive the middle-aged female market is.

Fortunately, the direct investment department of Lehman Brothers participated in the financing of Jumei B Lun this time. Qu Li knew that he had found the person in charge this time and asked him to help contact a few Chinese elites who were born in China and are familiar with international investment banking business. He is going to invest in a company recently. Brokers in trouble have certain rights to appoint and remove personnel.

"Don't worry, Lehman has a lot of talent reserves, and I guarantee you will be satisfied." Anderson knew that this was a good opportunity for Lehman Brothers. Partner.

A troubled brokerage firm located in the central province of China is introducing external investors. Isn’t Lehman good? Sure enough, Anderson fell into the trap. On the third day, big shots from the US headquarters flew over, accompanied by an executive from mainland China. The efficiency was astonishingly high.

"There can be no foreign shareholders this time. Things are really going to get complicated. This brokerage is likely to go bankrupt due to lack of money, so the investment and funds must be paid quickly. Lehman is planning to buy shares and must have a corresponding plan to prove itself. If Xiangcai Securities goes bankrupt or too many people lose money in this company..." Qu Li got some information from Xiangcai Securities at this time and warned the person in charge of Lehman

"I'm sorry, but I still want to ask. As far as I know, you were born as an orphan. It would be great to set up Jumei. Do you have so much money to buy it, or do you buy it for someone else?" The bald man from the US was obviously worried about Qu Li. white gloves

"The information about this acquisition came from a friend, but this acquisition is my business and I need to use my funds, but I am not familiar with the brokerage industry and want to make money. Lehman can help me in other ways, otherwise this time There will be no chance for you." Qu Li patiently explained, almost directly saying that he has his eye on you fat sheep.

When the bald man thought of Jumei's financing, he suddenly understood a lot. Qu Li, a person who has risen from the bottom, has some tricks to make money. Apart from lack of experience, he has almost no shortcomings. As long as he can help Lehman achieve its strategic goals, let Let him make some money!

"This is Fei Liwen, the managing director of Lehman Brothers. He is willing to help you get Xiangcai Securities out of losses..."

"Is this appropriate?"

"We hope to reach a long-term cooperation agreement with you."

"For example?"

"Lehman Brothers is willing to form a strategic partnership with Xiangcai Securities and become a shareholder of Xiangcai Securities at the right time..."

"It's a good thing, no problem."

"Lehman Brothers is willing to contribute a sum of money to help you acquire Xiangcai Securities!"

"What about the conditions?"

"Lehman Brothers wants a right of first refusal on your shares."

"How can you guarantee that you won't deliberately let Xiangcai Securities continue to lose money, so as to force me to sell the shares?"

"We have a work ethic..."

"..." Qu Li looked at the bald man with a half-smile

"Then what do you think is appropriate?"

"The purchase price will be doubled within three years. After three years, on this basis, the purchase price will be guaranteed to increase by at least 10% per year. In the other three years, Xiangcai Securities will not be able to make a profit. All the shares acquired by Lehman Brothers during this period must be transferred to the company at market prices. Me. In other words, both of us have the right of first refusal to each other." Since he had the opportunity and was an outsider, Qu Li didn't have any pressure in his heart, and he could be as ruthless as he could.

"No problem, but you need to cooperate with us and hold the shares of Xiangcai Securities on your behalf..." Lehman was careful about policy issues

"No problem, happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

The two laughed like foxes, thinking they had their own way.
