Wall Street Legend

  Chapter 239 Generation Gap

  Mr. Patrick Heiniger has been in charge of Rolex for many years. This company is similar to Apple in that it is a decision-making body composed of a group of people. The difference is that Rolex is managed by a foundation, while Apple is a company.

Since Ye Dongqing holds more and more Apple shares, the power of the board of directors is being weakened. He has already occupied two seats on the board of directors, and with the further increase of shares, he may occupy more, except for Danshui Investment Group , the remaining shares are still very fragmented. In fact, the forces behind a total of four board members have sold their shares to Danshui Investment Group, which has caused some minor disputes. I will talk about these later, and they are not the focus of tonight.

In recent decades, with the intervention of other forces, the watch industry has also formed an oligarchy, and most of the brands have been included in the business wave by large groups, such as Hublot, Zenith, TAG Heuer, Bulgari, etc. Affiliated to LVMH Group, Breguet, Blancpain, Longines, Tissot, Omega and other brands belong to Swatch Group, while Vacheron Constantin, Cartier, Piaget, Montblanc and other brands belong to Richemont Group. There are not many independent watch production workshops. up.

Mr. Heinig has no ambitions, and it is more than enough to manage a company, but it is a little bit powerless to make it bigger. Out of caution, there is a lot of cash lying in the account. Here are the reasons for seeking investment.

  If Ye Dongqing remembers correctly, the previous Rolex Company was indeed deceived by Bernard Madoff. The old man and old Bernard belonged to the same club, and the friendship between the two was pretty good.

But that seems to be just an illusion. After all, old Bernard was merciless when he cheated on him. Recently, old Bernard only wanted to transfer the risk to Ye Dongqing, and then let himself get out as soon as possible. How could he continue to absorb investment funds, so Mark Bernard directly brought him to Ye Dongqing. There was a secret agreement between the two parties before that old Bernard would get a bonus for introducing clients.

After sitting down, I personally helped to pour a bottle of good wine. The Le Hua red wine with a history of more than 30 years, the specific year is 1978, and I took it directly from the cabinet, so Ye Dongqing didn't feel bad at all, he did help little Edward make money .

There are still many things waiting outside, Ye Dongqing cut to the chase, and told: "Mr. Heinig, I know my age will make you feel confused. Many people think that being young means unreliable, but I can assure you that I will never Not the kind of unreliable person.

Just let me say that you may still not trust my company. Maybe you can find a team of financial personnel to come to my company to check the accounts. I can guarantee that all the data disclosed to the public are true. OK, because I make money with my brains, you'd be surprised to see my ROI. "

Mark Madoff was sitting next to him, and suddenly felt a little pain in his face. The main reason was that his father was a thief playing a Ponzi scheme, and he was stimulated by Ye Dongqing's words. However, as long as this business can be negotiated, his family will have Big money came in.

After thinking of this, it didn't matter for a moment, and he chimed in and said: "I have already shown you the information, and my father guarantees on his reputation that this kind of wealth management product is indeed worth buying. Now every investor on Wall Street knows him and knows him well." Freshwater Investment Group, I can take you to New York to see, live in my father's manor, maybe you can play chess and golf."

"I love New York, and I love this party. I've actually gotten to know you and your company. It's been really impressive since its inception, but I'm still not sure if this magic will last forever. "Mr. Heinig shook his head when he spoke. He is not young anymore, and he even looks like an old man. He continued: "Maybe I will buy some of these financial products, but it is almost impossible to buy all of them. After all, we have to share the risks. Mark, are you sure your father won't accept investment in the short term?"

Seeing this, Mark Madoff said: "Why don't you enjoy the party first, and let me discuss it with my father? You and him are very good friends. I believe that if there is a chance to make money, I will never forget you." , OK?"

Old Heinig made an OK gesture, with a satisfied smile on his face, and said: "Then I will wait for your good news. After it is done, I will invite your father to enjoy a few days in my ski resort. Please tell him there With the best cigars and beauties, he can even play golf against snowy mountains..."

  Ye Dongqing was a little messy, because he found that the old man was not interested in his company at all, just like Mr. Buffett thought at the beginning.

  Maybe they have not changed, but the world has changed. It is difficult for the older generation of businessmen to understand the information society that is being built, and naturally they will not invest in things they do not understand at all.

After Old Heinig left and went to the deck, Ye Dongqing rolled her eyes and raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, saying, "Well, I'm a liar, I can't manage this money at all. God, what happened to this world? It seems that there is indeed something worth learning from your father, such as how to make these old men willingly hand over the money.

  The plan has changed. In the future, your father will continue to raise funds, and then transfer them to my company. Compared with dealing with investors who don’t understand anything, I would rather pay more bank fees. "

   What made him angry was that he had said so much in vain, and all he got was meaningless coping. He was sure that if old Bernard didn't play, old Heinig would never buy the financial products of Freshwater Investment Group.

   “They may be more willing to engage with their peers, just like I am more willing to learn from you.”

  Mark Madoff's flattery was just right, making Ye Dongqing comfortable, but not too hot.

Ye Dongqing unbuttoned the two suit buttons, sat down and poured another glass of red wine, and said, "Let your father come, the price difference is yours, and it will be calculated according to the last price, without any management fee, but I Another five billion dollars or so will stop raising funds, and the money in hand is enough for me to develop.”

   "Okay, I'll call later and tell him about it. How about I tell him that my father decided to take his money when the old man is ready to return?"

   "It's pretty good, it will make him feel that he didn't come to the United States for nothing, and the right time can also make the other party relax his vigilance, so that he won't feel that your father is cheating him of money."

   "No, no, no, I used to cheat money, but now I cooperate with you, so it's not cheating money..."
