Chapter 338 The Whole World Will Be Kind to You
Li Xiaofan smiled and handed over a few brochures:
"No problem, seniors, thank you for your support!"
Seeing that Mr. Qiu and the other three did not look at the brochures carefully after receiving them, and stood there with a silly smile on their faces, Li Xiaofan asked curiously: "Mr. Qiu, do you have anything else to do?"
"Mr. Li, can I ask for a business card from you so that we can contact you in the future?"
"Oh, no problem, here you go! You are all good friends of Mr. Tang. If you need any further information, just call me. My mobile phone number is on the business card..."
For potential customers who come to him, Li Xiaofan's service is still very enthusiastic. Although he hates it in his heart, he still has to do enough surface work.
This kind of magnanimity and pattern still need to be there!
Li Xiaofan is not surprised at all by the bad habits of snobbery and fear of losing of these Singaporean businessmen.
At this time, there is a very classic saying lingering in Li Xiaofan's mind: When you are strong enough, the whole world will make way for you, and the whole world will be kind to you and treat you well! On the contrary, when you are weak, there are really many bad people.
In his previous life, Li Xiaofan remembered that Huang Bo, who had climbed up from the bottom of society, once said a very classic saying:
In many cases in life, it is not that there are too many bad people around, but that you are in a position where it does not cost anything to bully you. In this world, the harm of bad people has a range. When you are strong enough and reach a new position, you will be beyond the range of their harm...
There was a classic joke on the Internet:
I was eating in my tavern, and the gangsters next to me whistled at my girlfriend. Should I fight with them?
Answer: Work hard to make money and go to high-end restaurants for dinner. There are no gangsters there.
In this world, the harder you work, the stronger you will be. There will be fewer and fewer bad people around you, and more and more good people...
The next afternoon, Li Xiaofan called Liu Yanping, assistant president of Yifan Holdings, and Chen Huiyun, director of human resources, for a short meeting.
"Yanping, Huiyun, I have a task for you: contact headhunters and other human resources companies as soon as possible, and help me find at least two more professional investment fund managers as soon as possible, preferably with practical experience in venture capital. As long as the people are good enough, the income and benefits can be negotiated. Hurry up and do it!"
At present, the scale of the entire Yifan Company has been getting bigger and bigger. After the Spring Festival this year, Li Xiaofan appointed several senior executives of the company.
Liu Yanping was appointed as the assistant president of Yifan Holdings and concurrently the general manager of Singapore Yifan Trading Pte. Ltd., which was newly established at the beginning of the year. In addition to being in charge of the company's trade business, Li Xiaofan temporarily asked her to help Li Xiaofan in charge of human resources.
Li Xiaofan is more assured of old employees like Liu Yanping.
Human Resources Director Chen Huiyun is originally from Guangdong, was born in Hong Kong, and later went to the UK to study at university. After graduating from university, she came to Singapore to work and has been working in the human resources line. She has experience in human resources positions in many companies.
Before she came to Yifan Company, she was a human resources manager of a foreign multinational company.
In February this year, Li Xiaofan paid 1.5 times her original company's annual salary to poach her.
For Yifan Company at present, various talents are urgently needed!
In the movie "A World Without Thieves", when Ge You's subordinates said they wanted to deal with Andy Lau and not let him get in the way, the big thief played by Ge You said a very classic dialogue: "What is the most important thing in the 21st century? Talent!"
Before Li Xiaofan went to the United States to attend the bell ringing ceremony of Yahoo's listing, he asked Chen Huiyun to recruit a new assistant Wang Danrong to help Li Xiaofan with investment business.
Wang Danrong's hometown is Ipoh, Malaysia. She studied finance in the United States and worked briefly in an investment bank on Wall Street. Before coming to Yifan Company, she worked at DBS, the largest bank in Singapore.
After Li Xiaofan issued the introduction and promotional materials of Yifan Venture Capital Fund at the seminar of the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce held yesterday afternoon, Wang Danrong's office phone was blown up this morning!
Because the promotional page left Wang Danrong's office phone number.
Many member entrepreneurs who got Li Xiaofan's business card simply called Li Xiaofan's mobile number directly, and Li Xiaofan was exhausted in the morning.
Although it was hard, I was still very happy in my heart.
Li Xiaofan estimated that if this continued, the first phase of Yifan Venture Capital Fund would be oversubscribed. It seemed that he might be able to set up a few more funds, or make the fund size a little bigger...
So for Li Xiaofan, professional talents are urgently needed!
After arranging some of the work at hand, Li Xiaofan called Sun, the old man of SoftBank Group who had recently returned to Tokyo.
After receiving Li Xiaofan's call, Sun Zhengyi was very excited and shouted on the phone: "Hi, Mr. Li, good afternoon! Did you see the performance of our Yahoo stock last night?"
Yahoo's stock price hit a new high last night, closing at US dollars.
In the previous life, starting from 1992, the US economic growth data was beautiful, and the domestic unemployment rate began to gradually decrease. The main reason was that the United States ended the Gulf War in 1991 and devoted all its efforts to domestic development.
The then US President Clinton carried out drastic reforms, the US economic growth accelerated, the inflation rate dropped, the employment rate increased, the fiscal deficit decreased year by year, and even a surplus appeared, showing a prosperous scene.
During this period, the regions represented by Silicon Valley in the United States fully absorbed the world's cutting-edge talents and made full use of new technological achievements. In particular, high-tech industries represented by the information industry became the dominant force in the economy and completed the technological transformation of traditional industries. The US economy was thriving throughout the 1990s.
Stimulated by the recent good economic data, US technology stocks have started another round of agitation in the past few days. Last night, Yahoo's stock broke through the 80 US dollar mark and closed at the highest level of the US dollar.
"Mr. Sun, I saw it. Congratulations. The market value of your 7.8 million Yahoo shares has exceeded the 600 million US dollar mark!"
"Haha, Mr. Li, congratulations, congratulations, your net worth has also exceeded more than 200 million US dollars!"
Masayoshi Son laughed heartily on the other end of the phone. He was in a good mood and was in a great mood.
After the successful listing of Yahoo, reported by the media around the world, "SoftBank Group Masayoshi Son" has become a hot legend in the global financial community!
Recently, banks in the United States and Japan have come to him one after another, almost breaking his door.
Banks all over the world have always been "icing on the cake", and "helping in need" is just a legend.
In a good mood, Masayoshi Son asked on the phone: "Mr. Li, when are you free to come to Japan? I invite you to soak in the best hot springs in Japan, taste the top Kobe beef, and watch the best Kabuki performances!"
"Thank you, Mr. Sun, I will definitely come next time I find a chance!"
"Mr. Li, what's the matter with calling me today?"
Masayoshi Son is an extremely smart person. He knows that Li Xiaofan usually doesn't come to the temple for no reason.
"Mr. Sun, I briefly talked to you last time. I launched several large-scale venture capital funds in Singapore. Recently, I plan to lead the LP partners of the fund to the United States to inspect several investment projects. Do you have any good projects that we can participate in together?"
"That's great, Mr. Li, I have too many good projects on hand, let's work together for a win-win situation!"
