Chapter 523: Jump Into the Pit
"Honey, hubby, I have a question,"
"What?"
"That is, if you keep all the profits locally, how will the operating expenses of the headquarters be solved?"
"Simple, the headquarters and the subsidiary have a cooperative relationship. The output of the subsidiary can be sold by the headquarters, and the profits generated in the process belong to the headquarters itself, so that each can realize its own profits and losses."
"oh,"
Zou Rong immediately wrote it down on her mobile phone, and then continued to ask, "Also, there are thousands of poverty-stricken counties in the country, and there are nearly 600 at the national level alone. With so many counties, where should we start? ?”
Chen Yang's head sank into the pillow and he said feebly,
"Of course it's a survey. It's evaluated from two aspects, one is folk customs and the other is political customs. Whichever place scores higher in this aspect will have priority for investment.
Compared with natural conditions, these two are the decisive factors in whether the goal can be achieved. As the old saying goes, man can defeat nature, but first of all, this person must have the determination to fight with nature. Otherwise, even if he risks his life, he will not be able to help him. What an Adou! "
What is the most difficult thing about poverty alleviation work in many places in later generations?
Instead of fighting against difficult conditions, we must first lift up people’s hearts!
The same goes for his investment. If he doesn't choose the right place, the land transfer fee will be several times higher, and there will be other messy expenses. When the time comes, let alone 20 million, even 200 million will only make a fuss. , useless.
"oh,"
Zou Rong nodded in agreement and quickly wrote down, "Also,..."
But just in the middle of speaking, he was suddenly covered by a big quilt, and then he whined twice. The phone fell to the floor, the screen went out, and only rustling sounds were left in the room.
…
Next, Boss Chen’s journey continues,
The originally planned itinerary of first visiting the east and then following the central line to the west has been completely disrupted. Now it’s up to the destination.
However, with the invitation of Jackson as the image ambassador and the broadcast of Oprah's talk show, Boss Chen's reputation in the United States is also increasing day by day.
Everything else is actually fine. No one will rush up to ask for photos and autographs, or hold flowers and scream in greetings.
Although Boss Chen had some expectations, this really didn’t happen.
Mainly because more and more people are looking for Chen Yang to invest.
I don’t know how these people found out about Boss Chen’s schedule. They often suddenly appeared from the side, waving their document bags and shouting. They were really startled if they didn’t pay attention.
And the projects are diverse, including the Internet, electronic equipment, biotechnology, beauty, and even smart helmets.
Yes, it’s the kind of smart helmet that allows you to play games with the helmet on.
Although looking at the introduction information, this smart helmet has a wide range of applications, but Boss Chen thinks this thing is for playing games.
The most outrageous thing is that there is someone who is shouting about building a space carrier, which is the kind of science fiction product in Marvel. He is also shouting that he has made a major breakthrough in the anti-matter engine and now only has a small amount of funds to succeed. If Boss Chen doesn’t Investing is irresponsible for the future of the world!
This person no longer regards Boss Chen as the enemy, but directly as a fool!
In short, there are a lot of various high-tech projects. If you look at the concept, it can subvert the world and rush out of the earth. But if you look carefully, 99.99% of them are unrealistic.
Does his boss Chen look so easy to deceive? !
Fortunately, with people around him blocking it, most of the things couldn't reach Chen Yang.
Therefore, when Huang Shan put a financing plan in front of him, Chen Yang couldn't help but be a little surprised, "I asked you to send it in person. What project is so important?!"
Huang Shan sat opposite him and said with a smile, "Nothing, just a Silicon Valley unicorn financing plan. I think it's pretty good, so I'll show it to you."
Chen Yang curled his lips, "You can make sure of this. Is the investment amount huge?!"
He has now raised Huang Shan's authorization level from the original 100 million US dollars to 500 million US dollars. Huang Shan can make decisions within the limit. He only needs his final signature to confirm.
Under normal circumstances, this fund is sufficient for the investment amount of most projects, so there is generally no need to communicate with him in advance.
Huang Shan pouted, picked up the financing plan, looked at it, and said, "The amount is not very large. The total financing amount sought by the other party is only US$500 million. The main reason is..."
She paused for a moment, then tilted her head, "Okay, then I will make my own decision about the blood tester project."
Then he stood up and prepared to leave.
Chen Yangze opened his eyes suddenly, blood tester?
Such a familiar rush, what on earth is it?
Seeing Huang Shan was about to walk out, Chen Yang suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute."
Huang Shan stopped and turned around to look at him, "What's wrong?"
Chen Yang waved, "Show me."
Um?
Huang Shan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, shook her head and walked back and said, "You, you are still used to making your own decisions on big projects."
In fact, it's not just Chen Yang, she herself is the same. Although she has great authority now, she is still used to showing such big projects to her boss.
Chen Yang was too lazy to pay attention to her. He took the plan and flipped through it. When he saw the first page, he narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously.
It's you indeed!
In the introduction of the founder on the title page, a photo of a beautiful white woman stands out. Looking at the name again,
ElizabethHolmes!
It was her, the super-liar Elizabeth Holmes, who was later called the female version of Joe Gang Leader, who deceived many bosses and countless investors.
Huang Shan returned to her previous position and sat down, and said seriously, "From the data, this company's technology is very forward-looking, at least twenty years ahead of the times, so once the research and development is successful, its value will be immeasurable.
In addition, I also found someone to do background research. This investor is very extraordinary. She dropped out of school to start a business when she was nineteen years old. She is second to Bill Gates. The company she founded has been used by media tycoons Rupert Murdoch and Oracle. Many top investors, including Allison and Wal-Mart's Walton family, are optimistic.
In addition, many serious business celebrities and media are paying attention to this company. If it hadn't been for your recent rise in fame in the United States and the continued spread of the financial crisis, many investment companies would be shrinking and would like them to invest in it. It’s really not that easy to submit a financing plan. "
After a pause, Huang Shan smiled meaningfully and said, "By the way, it's quite a coincidence that the founder of this company, Elizabeth, is about the same age as you, she was born in 1984, but she started her business earlier than you. , if you hadn’t come from behind, you would have been outclassed by her!
Moreover, she is also a great beauty! "
On the sofa opposite, Chen Yang put down the plan and revealed a handsome face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Huang Shan smiled and asked, "How's it going? How much did you vote?"
Chen Yang smiled slightly, "Do you think I will definitely vote?"
"certainly,"
Huang Shan crossed her legs and crossed her arms, relaxed her body on the sofa, and said with a smile, "If you are unwilling to invest in this company, then I really don't know what your investment standards are!"
The Murdochs, Allisons, and the Walton family are all famous. Even though Boss Chen’s current net worth far exceeds theirs, his voice in the business world is still far behind theirs.
Now that even these big guys are optimistic about this company, what reason does Boss Chen have to refuse?
Chen Yang took the plan, looked at it again, and then gently put it on the coffee table. Then he looked at Huang Shan and said with a smile, "You can vote, but there is a condition."
Huang Shan raised her eyebrows lightly, "What are the conditions?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly said, "If it's a controlling stake, don't even think about it. Holmes's bottom line is control of the company, so any financing party is not allowed to seek absolute controlling rights, and other investors will not promise."
Chen Yang nodded slowly and said with a smile, "No, I don't want any equity or management rights. There is only one condition."
Then he leaned forward, put one hand on his thigh, and stretched out the other hand, "Five years, five years later, you must transfer the shares and withdraw completely!"
Um?
Seeing her boss smiling but firm, Huang Shan was a little confused and said, "No, if you are optimistic about this company, why don't you wait until the company goes public before exiting?"
This company is clearly a rare unicorn. If it exits before going public, the loss will be huge!
Chen Yang smiled slightly, retracted his extended right hand, and placed his index finger heavily on the plan, still staring at Huang Shan, "Then, what if this blood tester is fake?"
What?
Huang Shan's eyes widened instantly and she looked at him with disbelief. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. Her eyes wandered repeatedly between the plan under his fingers and that handsome face. She unconsciously lowered her voice and said, " How could it be fake?”
Although I don’t know the reason yet, the boss will never joke about this kind of thing, so the possibility of this being a fake project is very high.
If this project is really fake, that Elizabeth has really pulled a huge trick, defrauded those serious businessmen and celebrities, and dared to appear on the show openly and frequently. She is not ordinary courageous!
Chen Yang leaned back, leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed, and chuckled, "Actually, when I was in China, I saw reports about this blood tester on the Internet, so as soon as you mentioned it, I immediately Impression, and after looking at the information, it turned out to be that company.
We have an old saying that there is no panacea that can cure all diseases in this world. Similarly, there is no instrument that can detect more than 200 results from one drop of blood. This is not in line with scientific common sense! "
Scientific common sense is that the development of things must have a process. You cannot suddenly jump from the agricultural era to the electronic era. This is unrealistic!
"But,"
Huang Shan pointed at the plan and wanted to argue again, "So many top investors are optimistic about this project..."
Chen Yang curled his lips and said disdainfully, "Without the endorsement of these investors, would you still believe this thing?!"
Huang Shan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she immediately understood what Chen Yang meant.
It was because of the participation of these investors that she did not do more analysis and subconsciously believed that this project was real.
But what if those investors were also deceived?
Huang Shan took a long breath and squeezed out a little sound from the gap between her lips, "That's really shocking!"
Chen Yang smiled slightly and remained silent. Is this breaking the rules? !
It's so naive. It only takes another half a year for the American investment community to know what a real breakthrough is!
After a brief silence, Huang Shan suddenly asked, "Since you judge that this project is wrong, why do you still invest?"
Chen Yang leaned back on the sofa, looked at her and smiled, "Who in the global financial community doesn't know that Rainbow Financial Group is rich, and this project is recognized as a high-quality product in the Silicon Valley investment community, and now people take the initiative to deliver it to their door. Come on, what will others think if the rainbow doesn’t cast?”
Huang Shan frowned slightly, her eyes thoughtful.
Chen Yang continued, "If you don't vote, in their eyes, Rainbow is different. In other words, we are not optimistic about this project, so why not? Don't believe in the vision of those big guys? Or don't believe in this detector? The reason? What is it?”
After a pause, Chen Yang took a sip from the water cup on the coffee table, then smiled and said, "Yes, this little problem won't affect Rainbow, but since it can be avoided, why bother making a fuss about it?"
As for why he didn't directly declare that he didn't trust the detector, Huang Shan didn't ask, and Chen Yang didn't say either.
Obviously, the research and development of other people's products have not been completed, so you just say that the thing is fake. Where is the evidence? Aren't you afraid of getting sued? !
Huang Shan took a long breath and said with a wry smile, "I understand. Before this detector is proven to be fake, the company will continue to appreciate. Investing a sum of money first can avoid trouble and exit at a critical moment. You can also make a small profit,
Okay, then, I will make arrangements and invest 50 million for them. "
For the pit in front of them, it would be better for them to jump than not to jump. In that case, let's jump.
Chen Yanggang nodded, then the door was pushed open, Qin Yu and Zou Rong walked in, and asked with a smile, "What fifty million?"
"It's okay," Huang Shan turned around and said with a smile, "It's just a small investment. By the way, why are you guys back so soon? Isn't it fun?"
This is a seaside resort hotel on the west coast. Just now, the two of them went to the hotel's exclusive beach, while Chen Yang and Huang Shan stayed in the room.
Zou Rong walked to Chen Yang, kicked off her shoes, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and shook her head, "It feels the same everywhere, no wonder you don't go down."
Qin Yu raised his hand, "I'm just looking for something to eat."
Then he curled his lips and said, "It's the same as what Rongrong said, but unfortunately it's the same everywhere,"
As he spoke, he leaned his whole body back and leaned lazily on the sofa, "Oh, it's so boring!"
Chen Yang looked at her and smiled, "Even playing is boring, so why not just go back to work?"
It’s been almost a month since it came out on June 20th. After playing for so long, no wonder I feel bored.
As his words fell, the three ladies looked at me and I looked at you, and raised their right hands almost at the same time,
"agree!"
Chen Yang laughed and then waved his hand, "Okay, let's go back to China!"
