Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

Investment, to put it bluntly, is investing money to let others do things. There are definitely risks, but the money Li Shengli gave to his cousin is not a serious investment. After all, the relationship between the cousins ​​is here... Mei Wenhua wants to win over Li Shengli also wanted to give his cousin a hand.

It doesn't matter if you have money or not, I feel the best when I am not short of money.

…

In the evening, Mei Wenhua took Li Shengli away for a while, but there was no disagreement over who was richer. The next day, Old Turner finally showed up and personally took Li Shengli to the chicken coop for inspection. However, the chicken coop was too shabby. Just rent a few offices in an office building?

Where's the money?

Damn, where’s my money?

As soon as he entered Old Turner's office, Li Shengli became confused.

To be honest, when he arrived, he was still looking forward to a grand welcome scene. The boys from the 180th and 180th would line up and shout long live the boss. After that, he would arrange for a girl from the 20th and 30th to be his secretary and enjoy the rich life. Life.

But things are good now... It's a big place with three or two big cats and kittens. It's not much better than his cousin's Wenhua Media Company. Although it seems to be well-staffed and there are more than 20 people in the whole company, On horseback... the security guards accounted for a quarter, a total of five people. What kind of treasure is this that is afraid of being stolen?

It doesn't matter if you have more security guards, but the key is whether you can find some young and strong people. Damn it, five security guards and a retired old man with nothing to do, five people can't even get a good set of teeth and play three games of chess. There is still one less, and there is still one more when playing mahjong together.

Are these all relatives of yours?

The contrast between reality and imagination was so great that Li Shengli really couldn't accept it. Old Turner invested more than 20 million yuan in the sunset red pension business in the motherland.

…

"You...what else do you want to tell me?" Li Shengli said with a dark face.

"Don't think wrongly, this is just a temporary business location for us." Old Turner understood Li Shengli's thoughts very well and quickly explained, "Don't worry, in fact, our expected investment plan has encountered some problems. , the investment environment here is not as simple as we originally thought."

Old Turner was not lying. Investment does not just come with money.

Li Shengli did not come forward, and Thompson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also took out the coffin book and boarded the ship, so many things were difficult to handle. Old Turner could only intervene in the market based on pure foreign investment first, and in the early stage of opening up, it could only If it is planned under the model of Sino-foreign joint venture or Sino-foreign cooperation, it can only devote itself to the labor-intensive processing and contract processing industries.

To put it simply...

It means spending money to build a factory, hiring people to do the work, and then selling the complete assembly line products domestically and abroad to earn a processing fee. It has no technical content at all, and the real profits are based on relatively low labor costs. squeezed out.

Furthermore, compared to the size of a country, 18 million is just a sprinkle of water. It is impossible to set off a small wave, and it is even more unrealistic to make a big splash in the capital market. But Old Turner wants to There is no technology, no talent, no talent, just bring money. If you don’t do some hard work of investment, there is really no other way.

…

"Let's be direct, how much investment is needed for the industry, and how long will it take to produce output?" Li Shengli's face was still dark. After all, if the money was wasted, he would have returned to before liberation overnight.

"Well... the initial investment is almost complete. We currently have three joint ventures to build factories. They are all in open port cities along the coast. They are mainly engaged in the production and export of clothing. After the initial investment is completed, the output of labor-intensive industries will increase. It is still relatively fast and stable. In addition to necessary expenses, it is expected to start production at the end of this year. The time for all funds to be withdrawn depends on the subsequent revenue situation, so this item... is to be determined!"

"So... we just built three factories and the money is gone?"

"Otherwise? I can't help it. After all, due to policy reasons, there are many industries that we can't get involved in. Some of them are good to eat. At least they are stable. I will take you to the factory to have a look in the next few days. Say Really, no matter how bad it is, it can ensure that you, Thompson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar will not go bankrupt or become homeless."

Flow...tramp?

Two uncles and I are going to be homeless?

Li Shengli was shocked by the "beautiful future" described by the old Turner. Thinking about the three men going out as a group to wander, it was really unimaginable. But what the old Turner said... made Li Shengli feel that Thompson and Jia Shengli were Barr was very prescient in urging him to save money and invest.

"Go to the factory? I'm not going, you can do it yourself!" Li Shengli refused the invitation to 'inspect'. He just wanted to know where the money went. If he really wanted to get involved in specific matters, a layman like him would simply add to the chaos. "By the way, we Is there any working capital in the account? I have a project I want to invest in, and this money is my own."

Li Shengli didn't want to become a pauper. Although the money in his hands was enough for his cousin, it would be much more convenient to let Old Turner pay. After all, who is not investing?

"Are you personally investing in the project?" Old Turner was stunned. "Don't be kidding. Do you think we are joking? If you use the company's account funds privately, you have to seek the opinions of Thompson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in advance. After all, they are both You are also a shareholder. But if... the investment is in the name of our company instead of you personally, this matter will be simple. "

"Okay, then I'll do what you said and find time to get this done."

"No problem, but what I want to say...whether the project is worthy of investment requires our team to issue an investigation report. I will not give you a definite answer before!"

"So troublesome?" Li Shengli frowned when he heard this, because if Old Turner took someone to his cousin's place to check, and in the end it was no good and no money was given, it would be a huge loss, "Forget it. Okay, I'll pay for it myself, so you can go and do whatever you want."

"Okay! Since you're here, you need to meet someone later!"

"Who are you meeting? What are you doing?"

"Nothing, he should be an entrepreneur who needs investment. In fact, we have several such people visiting here every day. I guess they think... we are stupid and have too much money!"

"Holy shit, go and talk about it yourself, I don't care about these things, just sit down for a while and then leave!"

"Oh well!"

…

Old Turner's strict character was very suitable for taking care of these messy and trivial matters, so Li Shengli simply became a hands-off shopkeeper and sat aside.

After a while, a security guard with bad teeth brought in a skinny young man. Although this guy didn't look very good, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Turner, the temporary owner. He handed over his business card very enthusiastically and did not notice Li Shengli's presence.

"Jake Ma? Nice to meet you, take a seat!" Turner spoke in English, and the fat middle-aged brother who just walked in from outside and stood next to him was the translator. However... this exchange was destined to be without translator. What's the matter? Because Jack Ma's spoken English is quite good, and Li Shengli sat aside and listened to the music. Jack Ma, he doesn't look very good, but his name is quite foreign?

"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Turner!"

"Okay, I think we should talk about something substantive, and you can now tell me the purpose and plan of your trip, but unfortunately... my time is limited, you try to talk about the key points!" What Turner said , There was a bit of rudeness in the politeness, but Jack Ma looked at him as someone who was doing big things and didn't care at all.

"No problem, I hope our conversation will be quite pleasant!"

"In fact, we are now launching a technological revolution, mainly to promote our company's official homepage and products on the Internet on the international information highway. In the future, the Internet will inevitably be a development trend, and we have already embarked on it. After taking the first step to connect to the Internet, I believe..."

Jack Ma spoke concisely and concisely for ten minutes, but Li Shengli on the other side just couldn't understand. After all, there are specialties in the art. If you ask Jack Ma to play ball, he still can't play. But if you don't understand, you can't understand. Li Shengli I still think what Jack-Ma said is awesome.

But the old Turner on the other side didn't seem to be interested. After listening for a while, he interrupted Jack Ma directly, "Okay, Mr. Ma, I probably understand what you mean. To be honest, I admire your talent very much. You Let me see what I was like when I was young, but...we can't invest in your project, even if the prospects you describe are very exciting to me."

Damn it to you, uncle. If you don’t pay for it, why are you talking about a hammer?

Old Turner expressed his stance, but Jack Ma remained silent. However, Li Shengli curled his lips and felt that Old Turner was in pain.

"No, no, no, Mr. Turner, I haven't introduced you to the details of our cooperation yet. Maybe you..."

"Okay, Mr. Ma, I'm just a company manager at the moment, and I can't finalize many things. Although I appreciate your efforts, I believe my boss won't... like it!" Old Turner spoke. At that time, he accidentally turned towards Li Shengli, and Li Shengli scratched his head.

"No, no, it's impossible. I hope you can allow me to meet the boss of your company. I believe I will be able to convince him."

"Unfortunately, my boss is not interested in your project!"

"I didn't even tell him, how could he not be interested? I know, maybe your boss is too old to accept new things, but the current world trend is like this. If you don't keep up, you will be eliminated in the future. you!"

"My boss is old?" Old Turner was amused and Li Shengli cried. "Okay, listen young Mr. Ma, the funds on hand are not enough to invest in some complicated projects. To put it simply... …We have no money and my boss is poorer!”

"This, this, this..." Is it so perfunctory to tell a lie? Jack Ma yelled the last sentence with all his strength, and was about to end, "Money? I'm not interested in money, but you will definitely regret it."

…

Not interested in money?

Then why are you here, brother?

Li Shengli was shocked, but Brother Ma's bragging ability still moved him. He gestured to Old Turner with an index finger on his right hand and a duck egg with his left hand, indicating that he would invest 100,000 yuan to encourage this not-so-looking guy. brother, while Old Turner... looked at Li Shengli's statement and frowned, but still nodded.

"Sorry, Ma, my boss thinks your project is very promising, so we are willing to invest in you..."

"You, you... you didn't even get on the phone. How do you know your boss is interested again now?"

"I don't think I need to explain, do I?!" Old Turner's face darkened and he thought... Can I tell you that the guy sitting in the corner is my boss? "How about it? You seem to have changed your mind and don't want to Have you accepted investment?”

"No, no, no, this is great. How much do you plan to invest? I can discuss the specific cooperation details with you now." Only a fool would say no at this time, and Jack Ma suddenly became excited.

"One hundred thousand dollars!"

Old Turner said something, and Li Shengli on the other side immediately lost his composure.

Damn, it’s one hundred thousand, but you can’t change the suffix for me. Can one hundred thousand U.S. dollars and one hundred thousand RMB be the same thing? Li Shengli, who was so distressed, immediately waved his hand to Old Turner and told him Changing his words, Old Turner's face turned green when he saw Li Shengli waving his hands.

One hundred thousand is not enough?

Then one million more?

But we also need one million on hand!

Li Shengli, you just don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are.

"My boss has changed his mind. Ten changes to twenty!" Li Shengli expressed his opinion. Old Turner had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak Chinese now, "Congratulations, Ma."

curse?

Why does this sound like a curse?

Jack Ma couldn't control much anymore. He was as excited as a wild horse. After thanking him repeatedly, he was invited out by the bad-mouthed security guard. Before leaving, he told the time of the next meeting. Li Shengli and Old Turner were simply It was about to start a fight in the office.

"What are you doing? I asked you to give me 100,000 yuan. You... do you really think my money came from a strong wind?"

"You're so angry with me, can't you just talk to me directly? Who knows whether you're talking about US dollars or RMB, and... I've already opened the account to 100,000, and you're still waving your hands to me. What do you want me to think?"

"Holy shit, I'm really stupid and rich!"

"Forget it, I didn't sign a written contract anyway. If he comes back tomorrow, I will push him away."

"Aren't you lying to him?"

"If you don't sign a contract in the business arena, it will have no legal effect. I have the right to regret it!"

"You...you are really a black-hearted old bastard! Don't change it, just do whatever you say. This brother looks like he's quite successful, but he looks like an ordinary person."

"Doesn't this look like an ordinary person? Oh my god, I really can't understand your aesthetics!"

"What do you know? If you have money, you will look good!"

The mid-1990s was a period of rapid development of the Internet. Most online chats were made through posting and leaving messages on non-commercial BBS forums. The timeliness was a bit poor, but compared to the old-school post office communication channel, it was still more fashionable and fast. And a bragging post on a famous forum... titled "The first pot of gold in my life!" ", signed by Jack Ma, and there were only a few replies, only three people in total.

…

Jack Ma: I found an investment of two hundred thousand dollars today, hahaha!

Richard Liu: Damn, that’s awesome, brother, I also found an investment worth about 100,000 US dollars, hahaha!

Boni-Ma: Damn, what happened today? Where did you two find your prey?

Jack Ma: I don’t know. I’ve never met the boss, but he’s very generous.

Richard Liu: I don’t know either. My friend introduced me here. He’s a rich guy!

Boney-Ma: Richard, I didn’t ask you, so don’t say anything.

Richard Liu: Damn, who do you look down on? Jack, come out and speak for me!

Boni-Ma: What did you say? You who sell movies and second-hand goods, don't talk to us.

Richard Liu: Bullying? Okay, Jack, we are no longer brothers, please say something.

Jack Ma: Sorry, I'm face blind. I don't know who my brother is.
