Chapter 618 Tomorrow Capital

"Huh~!"

“Finally got another one!”

Watching Xu Xing's Mercedes Benz leave, Chen Li couldn't help but clenched his fists, which made him look a little excited.

However, he does have reasons to be excited, because just now, he successfully deceived Xu Xing, a VC boss known as the Queen of Investments in his previous life, and successfully reached a cooperation with the other party.

Chen Li and Xu Xing have known each other for almost two years. In the past two years, his relationship with each other has actually been quite good.

Although Chen Li seemed a little unreasonable when it came to investing in Panda QQ before, now that Chen Li has become Xu Xing's boss, this matter does not seem so important.

In fact, it is somewhat inaccurate to say that Chen Li is Xu Xing's boss, because strictly speaking, the relationship between Chen Li and Xu Xing is not an employment relationship, but a cooperative relationship.

Xu Xing would set up a capital company on his own, while Chen Li would hand over part of the free funds in his account to Xu Xing.

In return, Xu Xing needs to help Chen Li carry out some investment projects when he needs it.

To put it bluntly, Chen Li handed over the money to Xu Xing. Normally, Xu Xing basically decided how to use the money, but if Chen Li had a clear goal, Xu Xing would also help Chen Li complete the investment.

From a literal perspective, this does not seem to be a difficult task, but the actual operation is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

In his previous life, Chen Li had almost no understanding of the so-called investment circle, and most of his little understanding came from the news media and some online novels.

This also gave Chen Li the illusion that investment is a transaction between money and the project itself.

But when Chen Li was reborn, he discovered that there are actually many ways to invest in this industry.

For example, in the eyes of ordinary people, there is actually a big gap in the status between entrepreneurs and investors.

Because we can always see in a lot of news how difficult it is for some business leaders to raise funds when they first start their businesses.

In order to obtain hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, those business leaders who will be successful in the future not only need to be humble, but even beg their grandparents to go to meet investors.

The most important thing is that even if they reach this point, they may not be able to successfully obtain funds from investors in the end.

At first glance, the status gap between entrepreneurs and investors seems to be similar to the pocket money between a son and his godfather.

If his son's grades are good, then his godfather will happily give him pocket money.

If your son's grades are poor, let alone pocket money, he won't even bother to talk to you.

The reason why he is a godfather rather than a father is mainly because there is only one father, but there are many godfathers!

Precisely because there are many godfathers, those successful companies will always meet someone who likes this godson at a critical moment.

Then this godson finally succeeded with the support of the godfather who liked him~ and then he became a godfather himself.

Ahem~ Okay, this metaphor is definitely a little inaccurate, but it is indeed very vivid.

But in fact, if a godson wants to succeed, it is not enough to just rely on his godfather’s pocket money.

In addition to pocket money, a godfather also needs to use his own resources to fully support his godson.

And once the godson has gone through the difficult days at the beginning, he will become more proud after he achieves certain results.

At this time, if some godfathers come over and want to invest in their godson, the relationship between the two will become upside down.

Then~ you will see a group of so-called godfathers "fighting", and the one who wins in the end is qualified to be this godfather.

No~ the one who comes later can no longer be called godfather, at most he can only be called godbrother.

If the entrepreneur's business is good enough, then he may not even need a godfather at the beginning. At most, he can find two godbrothers. After all, what they want is not the godfather's pocket money~ but the godbrother to help them "fight."

”.

That’s right~ I’m talking about entrepreneurs like Chen Li!

Chen Li is not short of three melons and two dates, and some of the other people like him are not short of money. There are also some companies whose businesses can be completely self-sufficient.

Such companies often have only one purpose when looking for investors, to join forces to make them bigger and stronger!

But for Chen Li, he can't even play the role of "godson" well, let alone the role of godbrother and godfather.

After all, neither of these two roles can be played by just anyone. If you don't have some real skills, you may even be tricked to death by some godsons with ulterior motives.

Therefore, for these godfathers and godbrothers, how to choose a godson with "excellent grades" is also a very difficult matter.

Of course, in fact, this matter may not be that difficult for Chen Li.

After all, with the extra twenty years of memories in his mind, it is actually relatively easy to select some outstanding entrepreneurs.

But the problem is that even if he can find these people, there is still a problem whether these people are willing to recognize him as his godfather or godbrother.

Especially Chen Li is very unprofessional in the investment industry, so he must find a professional to fill this role.

And Xu Xing~ is the person Chen Li thinks is the most suitable.

Although in 2000, Xu Xing was not the investment queen that she became later, her personal ability even compared to that of the reborn Chen Li~ had to give her a thumbs up.

This person has progressed from a bank teller to the current head of the investment fund in China. This achievement alone is already a goal that most people will find difficult to achieve in their lifetime.

If Chen Li was still the ordinary person in his previous life, then the best he could do now was stand aside and shout "Sister Xu 666."

Because as an ordinary person, Chen Li simply did not have the capital to recruit the other party.

However, although today's Chen Li is not a top boss, he is still barely qualified to wear the hat of a small boss.

The most important point is that although Xu Xing is famous among entrepreneurs, in fact, she is just a part-time worker.

Even though she is the person in charge of Baring Capital in China, Xu Xing's voice is not as big as expected even in China.

Xu Xing needs to discuss many decisions with her colleagues and report to her superiors.

The reason is very simple~ As a Chinese, it is actually difficult for her to truly and completely gain the trust from the capital behind her.

But even to his current position, Xu Xing had to work hard to climb up.

So when Chen Li invited her at first, she rejected Chen Li without much thought.

But as Chen Li's career developed better and better, Xu Xing's mood became more and more shaken.

Especially some time ago, when she learned that Miss Mu, whom she had recommended to Chen Li, was helping Chen Li manage a huge sum of money, it would be an absolute bragging to say that Xu Xing was not tempted.

Having dealt with Chen Li for more than a year, Xu Xing thought that he knew Chen Li's younger brother very well.

Moreover, it can be seen from the situation of Miss Mu that Chen Li, a young man, treats his employees with great trust.

It just so happened that trust was exactly what Xu Xing lacked the most at the moment.

It's not that she doesn't trust others, it's that others don't trust her!

Although she is the person in charge of the Huaxia District, in fact Xu Xing knows very well that the reason why she can sit in this position is not only her own ability and hard work, but also because of this position. It must be led by a Huaxia

People come and sit.

There is actually nothing to say about this. Since it is an investment institution in China, naturally the person in charge must be a Chinese person.

I really need to find a foreigner to fill this position. Let’s not talk about anything else. The cultural differences between the East and the West are a big problem.

Moreover, finding a Chinese person to be the person in charge may make it easier for Chinese entrepreneurs to accept it, and in this way, investment institutions may have greater opportunities to make money.

Therefore, not only Baring Capital, but also other capital institutions entering the country, most of the people in charge are almost Chinese.

It's just that these people have different abilities. To be precise, the size of the benefits they earn for capital determines their importance in the investment institution.

Needless to say, Xu Xing’s abilities are definitely not fabricated out of thin air.

But the problem is that this is the year 2000!

As the person in charge of Baring Capital in China, Xu Xing is responsible for many projects, but there are really not many that can create benefits for the capital.

Previously, Xuxing took advantage of the boom in the Internet industry and invested in many small and medium-sized Internet companies in China.

As a result, the arrival of the Internet bubble crisis directly wiped out most of the Internet companies that could not stand the test.

Even though the companies Xu Xing invested in included many excellent companies such as NetNan and Red Pony Technology, as soon as NetNan went public, its stock price plummeted.

Although Red Pony Technology is about to go public, judging from the current environment, even if Red Pony Technology is successfully listed, its stock price may not reach an ideal level.

So~ Xu Xing seems to be successful, but it’s not that successful.

This also makes Xu Xing’s position in Baring Capital a bit embarrassing!

And the most important thing is that as a foreign capital, its trust in the Chinese market and even the Chinese people is not that high.

In the previous life, Baring Capital has never opened up the domestic market, and ultimately it is precisely because of this.

In addition to trust, Xu Xing had another reason for leaving Baring Capital.

Just two months ago, a big conflict broke out between Xu Xing and the capital institutions behind it. It was this conflict that strengthened Xu Xing's determination to leave Baring Capital.

This matter ~ has a lot to do with the Internet bubble crisis, and at the same time, it is also directly related to the current predicament of NetNan.

Speaking of which, Baring Capital’s investment in Wangnan was definitely a profitable deal.

According to the behavior of investment institutions, after the target company of general investment is listed, it is often the time for the investment institution to cash out and leave the market.

However, because the timing of Wangnan's listing was not good, when it was listed in June, the impact of the bubble crisis had already expanded to a considerable extent.

Therefore, as soon as Wangnan Company was listed, its stock price was greatly affected.

Based on the interests of investors, Xu Xing, after having an in-depth understanding of the operating conditions of NetSouth, felt that the impact of the bubble crisis on China's Internet industry was actually not great.

As long as it survives this bubble crisis, NetNan's share price is bound to return to a correct value range.

Therefore, Xu Xing persuaded the investors of Baring Capital to postpone the act of cashing out and leaving the market. Firstly, they could wait for the opportunity to seek greater benefits, and secondly, they could avoid a worse impact on the Net South Company.

Out of trust in Xu Xing, the investors approved Xu Xing's suggestion, but then internal disagreements broke out in NetNan, and its stock was maliciously shorted in the capital market. So... all of a sudden this group of investors

Even if people want to leave, they have no choice.

Unless they are willing to bear this loss, otherwise, the funds invested previously will have to be locked up in the bad stock of Wangnan.

Of course, there are risks in the stock market and investment needs to be cautious. These investors naturally understand this very well.

But the problem is~ they can obviously make money!

It's just that the profits earned are not as much as expected, but even so, as long as they leave the market in time, the profits earned will definitely meet their original expectations.

After all, no matter what, Wangnan was successfully listed!

But they just believed Xu Xing's lies~ As a result, they failed to cash out in time and ended up like this.

Of course, for these investors, the small amount of money invested in Wangnan is actually nothing.

But the problem is that for capital, the piece of fat that was originally fed to the mouth was actually forked out by its own people.

Such behavior would be difficult for them to accept!

So here’s the question? Who should take the blame for this matter?

There is no doubt that the answer is, of course, Xu Xing, and it can only be done by Xu Xing!

After all, she was the one who initiated the investment in Wangnan. She, the person in charge of the Huaxia District, has nothing to do with the situation that Wangnan is now in.

Regarding this point, even Xu Xing himself must admit that he did make a mistake.

She miscalculated the conflicts that would break out within the company's internal management, and at the same time underestimated the impact of the Internet bubble crisis.

But since the problem has already occurred, then take responsibility!

Anyway, in the investment circle, such things are not rare, and it can even be said that they happen frequently.

Therefore, Xu Xing is already prepared to be punished by Baring Capital.

But what Xu Xing never expected was that although the other party did not remove her as the person in charge of the Huaxia District, they sent another person in charge.

Originally, there was nothing to say. After all, she, Xu Xing, had split the issue, so it was not strange for the company to make such a decision.

However, after the new person in charge came, he did not think about looking for new investment projects. Instead, he always focused on the three-acre land in Xu Xing.

The other party not only reviewed many of Xu Xing's domestic investment projects in recent years, but even closed the door on some of the investment projects that Xu Xing was contacting.

Who is Xu Xing? She is a person who climbed up from a bank teller. She soon realized the purpose of the newly sent person in charge!

Xu Xing was furious at this moment. She, Xu Xing, had been doing her best to support the development of Baring Capital, but in the end, they didn't trust her so much. How could Sister Xu be so angry?

So after the other party reviewed the previous investment projects, Sister Xu resigned directly, regardless of the persuasion from above.

The time Xu Xing left Baring Capital in her previous life actually had to wait a few years, because although she had outstanding abilities in the early days, she was lacking in both connections and resources.

So at that time, Sister Xu basically waited until her wings were full before she left and founded Tomorrow Capital.

But now~ Sister Xu directly submitted her resignation without saying anything.

The reason is very simple ~ because there is a young brother who promised her to hand over 50 million US dollars to her for management as long as she comes to help!

Sister Xu is also a cheerful person. After confirming that Chen Li could indeed provide so much funds and confirming the cooperation model with Chen Li, she simply submitted her resignation.

Then an investment institution called Tomorrow Capital was quietly born!
