Chapter 301: Big Decision

For example, last year, the entire China Investment Group made a total profit of 10.5 billion US dollars, of which 3.5 billion US dollars was contributed by her, accounting for more than 30% of the total profit rate!

Her performance is so good that she has threatened the position of chief investment officer. The chief investment officer has been suppressing Shangguan Meixue with all her strength in the past six months. Her investment proposals have been rejected several times, which makes her very annoyed.

The chief investment officer's surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Jue. He once held an important position on Wall Street. He has rich investment experience and has a brilliant record. Several funds under his management have performed well, with an average profit rate of more than 8%.

However, since joining China Investment Group, his investment income has been mediocre, and his profitability is no better than his predecessor, or even worse. In the past two years, if it weren't for the outstanding performance of Shangguan Meixue and another new investment officer, he would not have been able to explain to the three directors.

The name of the new investment officer is Lu Xiaofeng, he is currently a first-level investment officer, and he is sitting opposite to Shangguan Meixue. He actually took over the conversation at this time and said: "Chief officer, my opinion is different from the chief. I am very optimistic about this project."

Shangguan Meixue was taken aback, this guy Lu Xiaofeng has always been against her, how did he change his sex today? wrong! This thing is eccentric! She immediately became cautious, her brain running quickly, so as not to be fooled.

The muscles in the corners of the chief investment officer's eyes twitched. He single-handedly pulled up this Lu Xiaofeng, and now he's betraying him? He suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Lu Xiaofeng, tell me your reason."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled slightly, stood up, and said: "Chief officer, three directors, colleagues. There are three reasons why I say this is a good investment project. First, the postal express network is very complete, covering villages and towns. , this is unmatched by any express company; second, it is the era of the explosion of commercial enterprises, and the total transaction volume on the Internet every year is as high as 2 trillion! Under this background, if we do not grasp the opportunity, the opportunity will be lost Being robbed by others; third, I believe in Shangguan Meixue's vision, her investment has never lost money, because her partner has always been one, and that is Tianxing Investment Company."

Shangguan Meixue narrowed her eyes, it seems that this Lu Xiaofeng has been investigating her a lot! But she didn't speak, just waited and watched, because she still didn't know whether Lu Xiaofeng had any malicious intentions.

Lu Xiaofeng continued: "Tianxing Investment Company has strong funds. I have checked his investment records, and there has been no failed investment. If we can cooperate with it, we can definitely win a big logistics project and build a company that is the largest in the country and even in the world. The largest logistics company!"

The hearts of the three directors were shaken, and they were a little moved. They are the heads of the China Investment Group, and the investment officers are just working for them. So even Yang Jue didn't say anything at this time, waiting for the director's opinion.

The three directors looked at each other with calm expressions. They are all extraordinary people who can sit in this position. In terms of official positions, they are senior officials at the ministerial level. In terms of experience, they have participated in the national macroeconomic planning.

One of the three directors is surnamed Zhong, one is surnamed Min, and the other is surnamed Cao. Director Zhong is in his sixties and is a fat man. He smiled "hehe" and said, "This is a long-term investment of tens of billions of dollars, and there is likely to be follow-up additional investment. The final investment may reach 40 billion, 500 billion. billion, or even more. Therefore, we must carefully consider this matter and not be hasty.”

Shangguan Meixue finally spoke. She stood up and said: "Any investment has risks. If you refuse to invest because of risks, then there is no need for China Investment Group to exist. I understand the concerns of the three directors. You are worried that the risks are too high But what I want to say is that even private capital is working on the big logistics project, and judging from the current market response, as long as we do it, the possibility of failure is very small. Because we have abundant funds and first-class management , which is unmatched by private capital.”

"I don't think so!" Yang Jue said to the three directors, "Shangguan Meixue's plan stated that the initial investment of this project alone is 30 billion U.S. dollars, and the total investment is likely to exceed 200 billion U.S. dollars! The amount of investment is too large, and the risk is high! So I think that even if it is a real investment, it must be cautious, and it can only be carried out after a large number of demonstrations by experts.”

Shangguan Meixue sneered, and said: "We are investment officers! If we don't believe our own judgment, what should an investment officer do? I repeat, investment has risks! Abandoning investment because of risks is a waste of food because of choking."

Speaking of which, there was a sneer at the corner of her mouth: "Speaking of risks, I have to mention one thing. In the past five years, the chief executive has invested heavily in a large number of oil and iron ore companies in Africa, Australia, and North and South. What is the effect? ?The total investment in these projects exceeds 60 billion US dollars! Looking back now, it seems that there is not even a single profitable institution, and two of them are on the verge of bankruptcy.”

Yang Jue was arrested until his feet hurt, and suddenly became angry from embarrassment. He slapped the table and shouted: "That's called strategic investment! Our country has been in a passive position on the issue of oil and iron ore imports all year round. If we don't buy companies outside OK?"

Shangguan Meixue sighed and said: "National strategy is important, but you can't ignore the gains and losses because of this, right? The money lost by those companies can completely buy more oil and iron ore in the world market. Which one is more cost-effective? You and I know it well."

Director Min waved his hand at this moment and said, "Okay, there is no need to argue. We will seriously consider this matter."

Shangguan Meixue said: "Director Min, I have invited Ms. Ge, the executive director of Tianxing Investment Group, do you want to meet him?"

"Right here?" Director Cao asked.

"Yes, Ms. Ge is outside. If it is convenient, she can come in immediately. Ms. Ge will show the strength and background of Tianxing Investment to the three directors. In addition, he will come to another cooperation project. I think the three directors would be interested."

The three directors discussed with each other, and Director Cao said, "Okay, let's meet Ms. Ge."

Ge Xiaoxian walked into the office unhurriedly. She was wearing a professional uniform, with outstanding appearance and elegant temperament, which made everyone's eyes shine. She walked to the side of the u-shaped conference table, smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "I am Ge Xiaoxian, the executive director of Tianxing Investment. It's a pleasure to meet you all."

Director Min said: "I have heard about your name for a long time. Many of our investment projects in Zhonghua Investment are in cooperation with your group. I thank your company for bringing benefits to the group. I also welcome Ms. Ge's arrival."

Ge Xiaoxian: "Everyone has a win-win cooperation. There is nothing to thank. I am here this time to talk about the construction of large logistics with the three bosses."

The three directors nodded one after another: "Okay, we also want to learn more about this project."

Ge Xiaoxian took out a copy of the information and distributed it to everyone present, saying: "Today I am not here to be a lobbyist, but to present the advantages and conditions. I think the bosses will definitely make the most correct judgment."

Shangguan Meixue said: "Xiaoxian, we can talk about the topic now."

Ge Xiaoxian nodded and said: "To judge whether a company is successful, it depends on several aspects of it, first of all, capital and team. In terms of capital, Tianxing Investment Company obtained a low-interest loan from the Swiss Shennong Bank, with a maximum loan amount of 80 billion yuan. In terms of team, Tianxing Investment Company has rich investment experience, excellent management team, and advanced corporate culture, and we are better than any of our peers!"

"Wait! What kind of company is Shennong Bank you are talking about? It is a foreign bank, why would it lend to you? And the maximum is 80 billion, we doubt it!" Yang Jue said loudly.

Ge Xiaoxian glanced at him and said, "Shennong Bank is a bank opened by a French-Chinese with a registered capital of 20 billion U.S. dollars. Last month, Shennong Bank's savings and loans reached 50 billion U.S. dollars and 200 billion U.S. dollars respectively. Eight billion U.S. dollars. Shennong Bank is very popular with depositors because of its focus on traditional savings, and the number of depositors is currently on the rise.”

"Because Shennong Bank has a relatively high deposit rate, it has reached cooperation intentions with many large companies in Europe and the United States. Among them, only an American electronics company is planning to deposit 100 billion US dollars of corporate funds in Shennong Bank. Obviously, Shennong Bank is Grow fast and it will become one of the most influential banks in the world."

Shangguan Meixue interjected: "The other project I'm talking about refers to Shennong Bank. The group can definitely invest in it!"

The three directors were greatly moved, and the China Investment Group controlled several trillion dollars of capital. If the money is not used for investment, it will shrink every year and be wasted in vain.

Opening a bank is a lucrative business. It is all about taking money from one group of people to make money from another group of people. You only need to invest a certain amount of money in the early stage. Of course, a successful bank must have mature management experience and business philosophy.

If the investment group has its own bank, it can release the money to earn interest, so that there will be at least 7% of the annual profit.

Director Cao said: "We'll talk about this matter later, let's talk about the big logistics first."

"Okay. The second aspect is the market. The bosses may not know that there is a Tian Company under Tian Xing. Tian Company focuses on consumer reviews and has spent tens of billions to acquire a large sales platform. There are many merchants who cooperate with Tian Xing There are countless, and they will all become potential partners in big logistics.”

Director Zhong asked about the main point: "I've heard of Tian Company. Its tentacles have extended to all fields of the Internet. It is a giant enterprise. I heard that its slogan is 'Let profiteers have nowhere to hide'. But I There is still a little doubt, how much business can Sky Company bring to the future big logistics?"

"Let's put it this way." Ge Xiaoxian said, "Sky Company is currently undergoing rapid expansion. In the next three years, it will invest 30 billion to 50 billion U.S. dollars to acquire e-commerce and search engines, and then integrate them into the largest company in Sky System. One of his sons, Zhonghua Shopping."
