Chapter 361: Recruitment Successful
When Jing Gao brought Xiao Qiao and Wu Jingshu to Hong Kong Island in May, he bought villas and luxury cars. The villa I bought at that time was located in Shek O. Brother Xiao Ma and Li Xiao Cucumber live here. After the establishment of Jiuge Capital, it has successively purchased properties in various places on Hong Kong Island.
The seaside villa that Jing Gao and Guo Lingyu talked about is not the one in Shek O, but a villa in a luxury residential area in Stanley.
Stanley is located in the southeast of Hong Kong Island and is full of exotic atmosphere. It is best known for its beaches and beautiful sea views. Among them, Stanley East Bay is known as the "Eight Views of the Xiangjiang River". Chung Khan Bay is also a popular destination for barbecue and tourism.
And in the midst of this beautiful beach and green woods are low-density luxury villas.
Under the golden red sunset, planes took off and landed, and the passenger flow was like a tide. Wu Jingshu, the president of Jiuge Capital, hadn't seen Jing Gao for a while, and picked up Jing Gao's group of four people outside the busy Hong Kong Island International Airport, "Mr. Jing, you have worked hard. β
Jing Gao smiled and shook hands with Wu Jingshu, and sat down in the extended version of the Maybach that came to pick him up. The landing price is about 13 million, and it has a bulletproof function. Bodyguard Chen Aiyang sat in the passenger seat. Jiang Zi and Wu Jingshu sat behind with Jing Gao.
The rest of the people got into the car. A convoy of four vehicles slowly drove away from the airport.
It takes about an hour and a half from the airport to the villa in Stanley. Wu Jingshu took out the wine from the wine cabinet in the car, poured a small half glass of champagne for Jing Gao and Jiang Zi respectively, and said with a smile: "Mr. Jing, there must be a minus degree over there in Qinhuangdao, right?"
"It's not as good as here on Hong Kong Island! I heard that Sanya is warmer in winter. I'll fly to Sanya tomorrow night. Jing Gao took a sip of champagne and put it on the small table at hand, just in time to see Jiang Zi's mouth quietly sneering. I shook my head helplessly.
Wu Jingshu said in surprise: "Mr. Jing, your schedule is a little tight." β
Jing Gao said: "I should have gone back to the capital directly." Isn't this going to come and meet Miss Guo? Our Phoenix Fund wants to use Hong Kong Island as the base point to develop in Southeast Asia. β
Wu Jingshu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Mr. Jing, let me report to you on the recent work of Jiuge Capital." Recently, Jiuge Capital has been collecting and analyzing listed companies on Hong Kong Island..."
Jing Gao's business on Hong Kong Island includes Jiuge Capital, Bank of East Asia, and Dayou Bank. There is also cooperation with Wei Chenjun of "Dawn Investment".
Before the merger of Uber and Didi, the equity was held in her company's private equity fund, Sputnik 4. The amount of funding exceeds $10 billion.
His business is huge. Hong Kong Island is a free port, a financial center, and his unlimited card is here, almost unlimited!
Time passed little by little in the debriefing. Jing Gao would occasionally tell Jiang Zi to remember his thoughts on what he casually ordered. At the end, Wu Jingshu said: "Mr. Jing, the wealthy Kadoorie family on Hong Kong Island has sent an invitation to invite you to Hong Kong Island in January to attend his granddaughter's birthday party. β
"Granddaughter?" Jiang Zi said strangely: "Mr. Wu, what does this invitation mean?
Wu Jingshu pulled her hair down and explained, "No. It's normal communication. Mr. Jing let Uber and Didi merge and acquisition, which is a $30 billion commercial merger and acquisition case, and the wealthy people on Hong Kong Island noticed it and intended to settle with Jing Su. β
The tycoons on Hong Kong Island are now all real estate developers. The Kwok brothers of Sun Hung Kai, who are relatively transparent, are about $17.5 billion. Lee Shau Kee of Henderson Development has a net worth of about $30 billion.
From small to big, these people's net worth is not as good as Mr. Jing. It's normal to want to make friends. Moreover, there is a rumor that the well on Hong Kong Island is always a "white glove" for overseas funds. That needs to be closer.
Idaka didn't think much about going. He didn't think much of the merchants on Hong Kong Island represented by plum cucumbers. Moreover, what else does Hong Kong Island have besides real estate and finance? Of course, the reputation of the Kadoorie family is still good.
He should be in the magic capital in January, and Uber is now a dominant player in the ride-hailing field, and internal contradictions are becoming increasingly prominent. He needs to take out some people!
"Jingshu, what do you suggest? Can I not go? Let you go on my behalf. β
Wu Jingshu persuaded: "Mr. Jing, this is the first time you have come into contact with the rich circle here. Although it was just a birthday party for juniors, the symbolism was still obvious. Personally, I would recommend you to go. β
"We'll see. Itaka gave a vague answer.
...
...
After arriving at the villa area in Stanley, the convoy continued to drive nearly two kilometers before slowly stopping in front of a luxury villa with a private beach.
Butlers, bodyguards, and chefs are all fully equipped here.
Guo Lingyu had already arrived. Jing Gao got out of the car and walked into the villa with the greetings of the villa staff on both sides, and saw Guo Lingyu standing beautifully wearing a maple-colored turtleneck sweater and a coffee-colored long skirt. The clothes are matched with a strong autumn fashion style. I'm very good at dressing.
Guo Lingyu smiled and said, "Mr. Jing, the pomp is very big." In the living room, she saw the villa's attendants greeting Idaka. Of course, she was born in the Malaysian Kwok family, and she has long been commonplace.
Jing Gao walked over and shook hands with Guo Lingyu with a smile, "It's the first time I've come here." Jingshu probably wanted me to get to know everyone. Miss Guo, I've been waiting for a long time. β
Guo Lingyu laughed coquettishly: "Then why don't you hurry up and invite me to try your chef's skills here." I'm going hungry. β
Idaka laughed, "That's." Please!"
There are several restaurants in this villa, and Itaka chooses the restaurant with a view on the second floor with the help of a butler.
Although the winter is warm here on Hong Kong Island, it is also relative. It was very windy at night by the sea. However, in the openable square second-floor balcony dining room, the huge windows are closed to enjoy the beautiful sea view in the right environment.
Looking at the tides on the sea, Jing Gao couldn't help but think of the situation of "watching the sea" in the bedroom with Liu Sumei. I sent a WeChat message to the past. Put down the phone and chat with Guo Lingyu again.
Taking care of Guo Lingyu's taste, the chefs cook French and Western food.
"Is the food to your liking?"
"Pretty good. Guo Lingyu raised his red wine glass and gestured to Jing Gao through the rectangular dining table covered with a dining cloth, "Mr. Jing, I am quite interested in your Southeast Asian expansion plan." Can you tell me more about it? How is it and no?"
Jing Gao held a tall glass, and the red wine glowed with money in the soft light. The bottle of red wine drunk at today's meal is worth 350,000. One cup, it's about 70,000. Said:"
After winning the domestic ride-hailing market, Uber does need to expand the market in ASEAN countries and even large countries in South Asia. But that's not my real purpose, I want to get hold of all the high-tech companies related to the Internet!"
When Idaka came to Hong Kong Island in May, he had an enlightenment. He is tied up in the country by using the Infinity Card, because the capital in the country is regulated. Moreover, he must also have a "protective shell" to avoid scrutiny and suspicion of him. When a person suddenly becomes rich, he will always be noticed.
However, there is no need to worry about these problems on Hong Kong Island. Hong Kong Island, an Asian financial center, has free capital entry and exit and relaxed supervision. He held the infinite card in his hand, and when he came here, he felt the power of capital, just like holding the Heavenly Sword!
The Bank of East Asia is a Hong Kong-listed company with banking qualifications in the Mainland, which involves the financial layout of the Phoenix Fund. He is still compliant in his business. A lot of it is not in accordance with the rules to lend to affiliated companies.
However, Jiuge Capital and Dayou Bank are all his personal enterprises. Moreover, it has a full financial license on Hong Kong Island.
He wants to bring the power of capital into play.
Guo Lingyu took a small sip of mushroom soup and said in a slight voice: "Mr. Jing, I roughly understand what you mean." You're trying to buy high-tech companies in Nanyang with the capital of the Phoenix Fund in the name of Uber, right?"
Itaka smiled and nodded, "Hmm." β
Guo Lingyu said: "Mr. Jing, with all due respect. Complete mastery is difficult. We will face competition from global companies such as Tencent, Alibaba, Uber, Apple, etc. It also includes capital that is optimistic about the Southeast Asian region. For example, Softsilver of Japanese benzene. Therefore, this matter is left to me to do, which can only allow the influence of the Phoenix Fund to expand in Southeast Asia, but it is very difficult to say that it is completely mastered. β
Jing Gao smiled and raised a finger, "I'll give you $20 billion in funds." β
Guo Lingyu instantly felt that her heart was about to stop, and a pair of bright eyes looked at Jing Gao stunned, as if she was looking at her first love!
She herself works at Goldman Sachs. Very sensitive to numbers. You must know that Goldman Sachs, as an international investment bank, cannot invest so much money in Southeast Asia and South Asia. Crazy numbers!
Jing Gao smiled slightly and raised a second finger, "If it's not enough, I'll give you another $30 billion." β
Guo Lingyu touched his forehead with his hand and shouted, "My God." Mr. Jing, how can this not be enough?"
Jing Gao took a sip of wine with a smile and said, "I have an additional request for 50 billion US dollars." I'm going to take all of the Galaxy Group's business in Southeast Asia down. β
Show oneβs true colors in the end!
His affair with the Galaxy Group was never over.
Guo Lingyu can be regarded as understanding. She still heard about the grievances between Idaka and the Galaxy Group. Some of them Guo have people working in the Galaxy Group. Responsible for some business on the Southeast Asian side. Such as mines, chemical plants, papermaking, ocean transportation, etc.
Guo Lingyu made a statement very neatly, stood up, and stretched out his hand to Jing Gao across the dining table, "Mr. Jing, I will work under you in the future." Happy working together!"
Jing Gao held Guo Lingyu's soft little hand, and his heart was very happy.
