Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

The party ended after eleven o'clock in the evening.

After Lin Baicheng said goodbye to other executives, he left the party with Maori Haruko and his bodyguards. Naturally, there would be someone to clean up the messy scene.

Lin Baicheng took Maori Haruko back to the villa, and he would spend the night with Maori Haruko tonight.

Back at his residence, Lin Baicheng had a conversation with Maori Haruko.

"Qingzi, Vivien is currently operating the remaining long oil futures orders. Have they been closed?"

"Manager Kelly is still shipping, and almost half of the positions have not been sold. Also, Chengjun, the fund you asked her to lead is still in the fundraising stage. The first phase is originally scheduled to raise 50 million US dollars. It seems difficult to accomplish at the moment.”

"How much has she raised now? When is the deadline for raising funds?"

"The fund-raising deadline is the end of this month, and nearly 20 million U.S. dollars have been raised. Judging from the current fundraising progress, we may only be able to raise 30 million U.S. dollars by the end of the month."

"Just raise as much money as you can. The important thing is to achieve results. Only by achieving results will it be easier to raise funds next year and the fund size will gradually increase. But if you can't achieve results, Even if hundreds of millions of dollars are initially raised, customers will still choose to redeem after maturity, so there is no point in starting at a higher starting point.”

Lin Baicheng is not prepared to help Vivien Kelly. It doesn't make much sense. The key point is the annual return rate of the fund under Vivien Kelly's management. This is the key point.

As long as the rate of return is high enough, if you show the rate of return to investors in the second year, there will be no need to say anything more. Investors will rush to invest, and then you will no longer be afraid of running out of money.

Haruko Maori agreed very much and said: "Mai-kun, you are right. As long as Manager Kelly can make achievements and let customers see high rates of return, there will be no fear that the fund will not be able to raise funds in the future."

"lets change a topic."

Lin Baicheng changed the subject and said: "I have made tens of billions of dollars in gold futures investment. You know this. This money is still in the accounts of overseas offshore companies and funds. It is not easy to transfer it to my name frequently." Come on, there’s no need for that.”

"However, it is not appropriate to put this money in a bank or a fund account. The currency will only continue to depreciate, and the money will become less and less valuable if left alone, so the money must be invested."

"I have a general direction for how to use these funds, and now I want Qingziqin to help me with the details."

Lin Baicheng will definitely not let the more than 10 billion US dollars of funds be placed in a bank or corporate account. If left unattended, it will only continue to depreciate. He would only do that if he was stupid. Investing these funds is a better choice.

Maori Haruko knew that Lin Baicheng's gold futures investment was profitable, so Lin Baicheng could discuss it with Maori Haruko.

"Cheng-kun, just say it, I will listen."

Maori Haruko nodded heavily, feeling very happy. Lin Baicheng was able to discuss such a major matter with her, which was a sign of trust in her.

Lin Baicheng said: "As you know, Qingzi, I have always been fond of the semiconductor industry, so I am ready to increase investment in the semiconductor industry. The semiconductor industries I currently invest in include chips, memory, and panels. I want to invest in something related to these. The ultimate goal of the semiconductor industry is to form a closed loop of investment in the semiconductor industry so that it will not be choked by the outside world."

"In this case, the investment will be very large. Investment in the semiconductor industry requires continuous investment in research and development funds, and it is difficult to achieve results in a short period of time. Chengjun, you must be mentally prepared that you will not be able to get a return on investment for several years or even more than ten years."

"As far as commercial investment is concerned, investing in the semiconductor industry cannot yet see much return in the future, but the risks and investment are not small. It is not a high-quality investment option. Chengjun, do you want to consider it again?"

After hearing this, Haruko Mouri couldn't help but remind her that investing in the semiconductor industry is a typical investment with slow results and high risks.

"I know what you said, Haruko, but investment in the semiconductor industry is necessary, and the amount of investment cannot be small. I firmly believe that the semiconductor industry is the future."

Lin Baicheng had no way to tell Haruko Mouri that the future would be dominated by electronic products, and the semiconductor industry was the core of electronic products. He could only express his firm attitude.

"I believe your judgment is not wrong, Mr. Cheng. If the semiconductor industry is the future, then investing in it is worthwhile."

If Maori Haruko knows that Lin Baicheng's attitude is very firm, she cannot change Lin Baicheng's attitude. However, she has a lot of confidence in Lin Baicheng's judgment, because Lin Baicheng has not made any big mistakes so far, and he has not missed any investment. , she has reason to believe that Lin Baicheng's judgment this time is also correct.

Nodding, Lin Baicheng continued: "Qingzi, you also know that I founded the Changsheng Pharmaceutical Biotechnology Company. I will personally lead the research and development team. The final research and development direction is drugs that can extend human life. The company itself is a long-term phased investment. The initial total investment of 500 million US dollars is enough. I plan to invest in some companies that specialize in research equipment and hold a certain share. This way, once the company develops the latest equipment, the company can purchase it as soon as possible, which in disguise improves my R \u0026 D capabilities."

Lin Baicheng knows very well that no matter what kind of research, in addition to the knowledge of research talents themselves, research equipment is also very important. Advanced research equipment can improve the level of research.

"These investments are indeed necessary, and the amount of investment should not be large."

Maori Haruko had no objection after hearing this. Although she thought it was unrealistic for Lin Baicheng to develop drugs to extend human lifespan, Lin Baicheng was worth tens of billions of dollars, so it was okay to spend some money on this aspect.

Although the possibility of success is unlikely, there is a slight possibility of success after investing. Lin Baicheng is so rich that he can afford some losses, so there is no need for Maori Haruko to persuade.

"I plan to use some funds to purchase antiques from China. Now I will purchase them in other foreign countries. After China opens up more thoroughly, I will go there to purchase them. I plan to build a big museum by then. Display my collection, just think of it as my hobby.”

Lin Baicheng himself doesn't like antiques very much, but now Chinese antiques are super cheap, and the treasures left by his ancestors are flowing abroad. It's really a pity to think about it. Whether it was out of sentiment or business investment, Lin Baicheng felt that it was necessary for him to allocate a special amount of funds to send people to various countries to purchase Chinese antiques.

Of course, the purchase of antiques must be done by professional people, otherwise the losses will be great if a large number of imitations are collected.

"Since this is your hobby, Cheng-kun, there's nothing to say. Cheng-kun, just let people do it. No one is qualified to point fingers."

Maori Haruko said immediately, since she said it was Lin Baicheng's own hobby, what else could she say? It was impossible to ask Lin Baicheng not to spend money on his hobby. She knew it was impossible.

"What I just mentioned are all small investments. The investment in the semiconductor industry will be larger, but the initial investment is only one to two billion US dollars. The maximum investment is two to three billion US dollars. In total, there are more than ten billion US dollars. funds.”

“The investment of the remaining funds must pursue commercial returns.”

"First of all, let's talk about Xiangjiang. Because of the reform and opening up in mainland China, I am very optimistic about the future economic development of Xiangjiang as a bridgehead. Therefore, we can invest heavily in Xiangjiang, especially in the real estate industry. After all, Xiangjiang is a typical city with less land and more people."

"However, Xiangjiang is too small and cannot absorb too much capital, so it is not the main place for investment."

"Among the countries in the world, I am more optimistic about the economic development of the United States and Japan in the next five or even ten years, so these two countries are where I want to invest."

"Haruko, what do you think?"

Lin Baicheng asked Maori Haruko whether he really wanted to listen to Maori Haruko. He would not even consider it because he knew the future and clearly knew the general direction of the economies of various countries in the world. He was absolutely sure of the general direction, so there was no need to listen to Maori. Haruko's.

"Modern industry is inseparable from oil, and there have been two oil crises. Oil prices have risen too much compared to ten years ago. This will inevitably have a serious impact on the economies of Western countries. Not to mention that it will cause the economies of Western countries to regress. At the very least, it will affect its growth rate.”

"The U.S. economy may also be affected, but the U.S. economy is the number one in the world, and it has united the countries in the Western camp to fight against the Soviet Union, so investing in the U.S. is not wrong."

"As for our country, the economy has indeed been developing better and better in recent years. However, a large number of high-quality companies belong to major consortiums. It is impossible to acquire large-scale companies. However, it should not be a problem to obtain a certain shareholding ratio through financing."

"As for the country's economic development speed, there should be no problem for now, but it is hard to say whether it can maintain a stable growth rate."

Maori Haruko said her opinion. She had no problem with Lin Baicheng's choice of countries to invest in.

"I believe in my judgment that the economies of the United States and Japan will develop rapidly in the next five to ten years."

Lin Baicheng smiled and did not explain more, but said: "As for the specific investment direction, I have always believed that when a country's economy develops rapidly, the country's real estate industry must be upward, so I will spend a lot of money Invest in the real estate industries of both countries.”

"Investing in real estate is indeed a good choice, but I would like to ask Mr. Cheng, do you want to set up a real estate company in the two countries to specialize in real estate development, or do you only want to acquire ready-made buildings, shopping malls and other properties?"

Maori Haruko asked aloud, both are investments, but these two investment methods are completely different.

"Of course it's about acquiring existing properties."

Lin Baicheng said immediately: "Real estate development is too closely related to the government. I don't plan to make a big splash about my capital investment, and try to hide it as much as possible so as not to be found out that the investor is the same. Instead, I want to spread it out."

"Real estate development cannot become bigger and stronger without in-depth cooperation from the local government. It would be better to acquire ready-made properties."

Maori Haruko agreed very much. After listening to Lin Baicheng's explanation, there was nothing more to say.

Lin Baicheng: "In addition to acquiring ready-made real estate, you can also invest in some real estate companies. You don't need to hold too many shares, just a small number of shares. Also, the real estate acquired mainly acquires buildings, shopping malls, and shops in prosperous commercial areas. , villas and other properties, and then rent out these properties. In this way, not only can you earn a large amount of rent every year, but you can also earn profits from the appreciation of the real estate when you sell the properties after a few years.”

"There is no problem with this investment direction. As long as the housing prices in the two countries increase in a few years, then this investment will definitely make a profit." Haruko Mouri nodded in agreement.

"In addition to real estate investment, I am also planning to purchase stocks of some high-quality listed companies in the two countries, such as Japan's Panasonic and Sony. The stocks purchased will not exceed 5% of the total share capital. This way, I do not need to register with the board of directors and reduce my holdings. There is no need to make an announcement in advance.”

The financial markets in the United States and Japan are much more complete than those in Hong Kong. Shareholdings exceeding 5% must be registered, and then the reduction of holdings must be announced in advance, and the reduction cannot be done within a certain trading day after the announcement, which is very troublesome.

Therefore, if you do not want to become a director of a listed company, but just make commercial investments, then it is best not to hold more than 5% of the listed company's shares. 4.99% is just right.

Haruko Mouri said: "The possibility of losing money when buying stocks of large companies is small, but it is not impossible. Therefore, it is better to conduct research on the specific companies you want to buy."

"Definitely!"

Needless to say, Haruko Mouri said that Lin Baicheng would not make a decision at once. After all, the number of large enterprises he knew was limited and not everything was clear.

"Haruko, that's all I can think of. Apart from these, do you have any other ideas?"

"Chengjun, you can set up a team specifically, combine the economic development policies of the two countries, and then invest in start-ups or small and medium-sized enterprises in related industries. Such investments may fail sometimes, but once they succeed, the returns will be very considerable. Yes, returns of several times or dozens of times are possible." Haruko Mouri thought for a while.

Lin Baicheng nodded: "This is actually very similar to venture capital. Is there anything else?"

"Well"

Maori Haruko pondered and shook her head: "Cheng-kun, your investment plan is already quite complete. I can't think of anything else for a while. Give me some more time and I'll investigate. If you have any suggestions, I'll talk to you again." explain."

Lin Baicheng nodded and said, "Well, it doesn't matter if you think about it slowly. Anyway, there are already many investment directions at present, and there is plenty of time."

Haruko Mouri: "Makoto-kun, you have invested so much, so you need to form a few more teams."

"I know this. How can I possibly be busy alone?"

Lin Baicheng's main focus will be on Changsheng Pharmaceutical and Biological Company. He will formulate the investment plan, but the specific implementation will be left to others.

However, this is an investment of more than 10 billion U.S. dollars. Although it is not a one-time investment, and each investment direction may only be 1 to 2 billion U.S. dollars, it is not a small amount. It can even be said to be an astronomical figure. Therefore, the responsible person The person must be Lin Baicheng's confidant.

Lin Baicheng must prevent his wealth from being embezzled by others. Even if there is a contract, there are always more solutions than difficulties. If supervision is not done well, it is not impossible for his assets to be embezzled by others.
