Chapter 279 Financial Salon (1)
Chapter 279 Financial Salon ([-])
The layout of Tan Qin's villa is not the traditional European and American style villa: front courtyard, backyard, garden swimming pool.It occupies a larger area and is more private.
After entering the gate of the villa, 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.The interior style is simple and atmospheric, partial to log and coffee.
"Mr. Jing, please!" Walking into the gate of the villa, the old housekeeper in an English-style tuxedo who was waiting at the door bowed slightly in greeting. Tan Qin warmly stretched out his hand to invite again, and brought Jing Gao and Guan Yujia inside.
Tan Qin's late parents were once active in the political arena.But that's all in the past.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.But Tan Qin didn't 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 went out to greet him in person. Although his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, he was very enthusiastic.
The living room is spacious, furnished with sofas, coffee tables, artwork, etc.Adjacent rooms are connected.At this time, many people were drinking tea and communicating inside.
The so-called "salon" is an imported word.You can generally refer to "Our Wives' Living Room" written by Bing Xin back then.Or see an episode of the popular TV series "Ode to Joy", where Andy goes to Tan Zongming's villa to attend a party.
The official start time of the "Financial Wednesday" salon is [-] pm.But Tan Qin is in the outskirts of the city, and no one is stuck arriving at three o'clock.People who like this kind of social occasion can come in advance.Those who don't like it can come later, listen to the latest news in the industry and then leave.
"Mr. Tan's house is very nice!" Jing Gao looked around and praised.Because it was the first time he came here, he came half an hour earlier.This approach undoubtedly made Tan Qin feel very comfortable.It means a kind of respect.
"Thank you." Tan Qin beckoned the waiter to bring drinks, and said sincerely: "Mr. Jing, the number of friends here is not enough. If you want to talk about the future development trend of Uber (China), you'd better wait."
Jing Gao smiled, "Mr. Tan, thank you for reminding me." He said to the waiter, "Guan Guan can't handle alcohol. Please bring me a cup of tea."
Tan Qin nodded with a smile. Jing Gao treated him as a semi-public relationship with this beautiful assistant, but it was actually an expression of being close to him. "Mr. Jing, here is my business card."
Just after exchanging business cards, Shen Nanpeng from Hongbin (China) came over with a wine glass.Tan Qin made an introduction.The three of them exchanged pleasantries, and Tan Qin left, "You talk."
Tan Qin sat down by a sofa in the living room.Immediately someone asked, "Old Tan, who is that young man you brought in?"
"That's right. Mr. Tan, this is a new face. Who else deserves to be greeted by you at the door?"
Tan Qin tapped Erlang's leg, held a wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile: "Didn't you guys chat very hotly in the WeChat group yesterday? This is your topic, Jing Gao from Phoenix Fund."
"No way?"
Pairs of eyes looked at the young man in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at him.The news spread quietly: Boss 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 doesn't know Shen Nanpeng.Even if there was a bit of a holiday before.But this is the first time the two have met.
Shen Nanpeng is 50 years old, with short hair, a 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 inside.After Tan Qin left, he held his wine glass and pondered for a moment, then said, "Boss Jing, I need to apologize to you."
Shen Nanpeng entered the field of venture capital in 2005.In the past ten years, he has invested in almost half of the companies in the Internet circle: Sina, JD.com, AutoNavi, 360, Noah, Vipshop, Alibaba, Douban, Dianping, Meituan, Lvmama, Tuniu, etc. .
However, read the information carefully.
When he entered the venture capital circle in his first year, none of the companies he invested in exceeded $1000 million.At the time, he was managing $5000 million in funds.By 2016, he had invested in more than 300 companies, with a total asset management fund of about US$90 billion.
Do you understand?
From the perspective of making money, starting a business, and doing business, this person is simply a genius!
In ten years, mind you, he's not reborn, and he doesn't come from a place like that.He can grow the funds under his management from 5000 million US dollars to 90 billion US dollars, which is quite terrifying!
Which boss doesn't love such a talent?Which partner would not want to do business with him?
However, for such an all-powerful person, how does the amount of funds he manages compare with Jing Gao?It pales in comparison!In the Internet venture capital world, Alibaba and Tencent are at the father level.It feels like they have unlimited money.However, Ali Capital actually has only US$200 billion in available funds.How does this amount of funds compare with Jing Gao?
Through these two comparisons, one can roughly understand Jing Gao's position in the venture capital circle and Internet business circle at this moment!
Jing Gao's Phoenix Fund spent US$82 billion to acquire Uber (China), and spent about US$18 billion to acquire LeEco's asset package.The combined strength displayed is terrifying.Numbers are not just numbers!
Therefore, the turbulent emotions here in Shanghai can be said to be a "feast of wealth" on the surface, because Jing Gao has spoken to the outside world!But in essence, it is still a continuation of the impact brought by Phoenix Fund's acquisition of LeTV's asset package!
We must be soberly aware of this point: Phoenix Fund is an enterprise that is comparable to or even surpasses Ali and Tencent in the domestic venture capital circle!
This is the first time that Jinggao has released a signal to the outside world after he became famous. The capital circle in Shanghai gave him a very positive feedback: sought after!
The "festival" between Shen Nanpeng and Jing Gao was before Jing Gao "became famous".Otherwise, how could he be so stupid?He didn't know whether Jing Gao was out of "commercial competition" considerations or unconsciously.In short, Jing Gao used the fame after "fame" to the extreme.
Fame is something that has a certain timeliness.This is almost the same as Weibo hot spots.And Jing Gao's participation in this financial salon is to maximize the benefits!Not to mention making appearances and swiping his face, he only needs to collect a circle of business cards, which is a net with terrifying energy.If you can build a personal relationship with someone, that's even better.
As a businessman, the saying that hangs on his lips is "business is business."Jing Gao can't use the energy of this net?As long as he takes out his "money ability", why can't he use it?In layman's terms, his path has been widened.
Jing Gao smiled noncommittally, waiting for Shen Nanpeng's next words.Still the same sentence, 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)?"
Chinese philosophy emphasizes dialectics and unity.It is the "Tai Chi" mentioned by Taoism.Crisis, danger contains opportunity.He offended Mr. Jing, this is a crisis.According to the news he learned from certain sources, Boss Jing is really determined to get him involved, and the projects he invested in recently will basically lose nothing.For example, what if Mr. Jing does not want to buy the Didi shares held by Hongbin (China)?
The shareholders of Hongbin (China) probably want to kill him.
Inoko was a little surprised.The meaning of Shen Nanpeng is translated as: Boss, can I work for you?
The full name of Hongbin (China) is: Hongbin Capital China Fund.The information on the Internet talks about how awesome Hongbin (China) is and which companies it has invested in.But how the funds were raised is kept secret.
To put it bluntly, this is like a private equity fund.It's just that it is not investing in the stock market, futures, bonds and other markets, but doing venture capital.Under normal circumstances, the share of this fund is very difficult to get.They have no shortage of money to invest.
Many people can't understand what foreign capital does after it comes in.Apart from the traditional ways of opening factories, it is highly estimated that there are many foreign shareholders in Hongbin (China).
Jing Gao raised his wine glass and touched Shen Nanpeng lightly, and said quietly: "I invest 5 million US dollars in my own name."
Shen Nanpeng breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Jing Gao would directly spend 10 billion US dollars on it.Then he has to be busy spending money this year, looking for investment projects everywhere.People invest in dividends!If you have too much money, it will kill you.
"Okay. Mr. Jing, I would like to toast you again. I wish Uber will become the leader of online car-hailing soon."
Jing Gao smiled and nodded, giving Shen Nanpeng a smile.Almost everyone he met after coming to Shanghai this time was a human spirit.For example: President Mo, Shen Nanpeng.I don't know if it's because of his higher level.said: "
Mr. Shen, do you know Mr. Zhou from 360?I just bought Coolpad from LeEco. Coolpad and 360 collaborated to create Qiku, which made a lot of noise last year.Coolpad also has a 20% stake in Qiku.I would like to ask Mr. Shen to do me a favor and dispose of this part of the shares.It doesn't matter if it's money or not, just clean it up.I owe Boss Shen a favor for this matter. "
360's leader in red is notoriously difficult to deal with in the industry. He started as a rogue software.To make a digression, Wanda's Xiao Wang has cooperated with 360, and the root cause of the collapse of Xiao Wang's business kingdom is the confrontation with Tencent.But did 360 give him a reasonable and legal push in the process of his downfall?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 had the same smiling face, but he was obviously close to him, and said, "Look at Mr. Jing, what kind of human feelings are you talking about? You can treat me to dinner later, Mr. Jing."
Jing Gao is able to run such a big business, he is indeed capable.Please ask Jing Gao, and the relationship between him and Boss Jing will naturally become closer.Of course, this is also because he still has a bit of a reputation in this industry.After Mr. Jing reconciled with him, didn't he intend to associate with him?
Hey, no.Why do I seem to be running errands for Boss Jing, and Boss Jing is willing to associate with me, making me feel honored?
Shen Nanpeng reacted, and couldn't help laughing bitterly in his heart.There are talents from generation to generation.
...
...
While chatting here, Tan Qin walked over with a smile and whispered: "Mr. Jing, it's almost time. Please come with me."
The heavyweights at today's party were about the same.It's time to talk.
