At five o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesday, September 5, Zhou Ming came to Tong Gang's villa in Cambridge after class, and Lin Muqing accompanied Zhou Ming to the villa from Harvard.

Since Lin Muqing accompanied Zhou Ming to start school on the first day, Lin Muqing has accompanied Zhou Ming to class and school for the past two days, just like when they first arrived in Hong Kong City, and except for the first day when they met Zyra, they haven't encountered anything in the past two days, but this is normal, how to say that Harvard is also the world's first-class institution of higher learning, all of them can enter here are high-quality talents, everyone is proud of their identity, and people like Little Brook are only a few after all.

"Comrades, have you found any high-tech companies that are very good to sit on?"

Zhou Ming asked directly as soon as he entered the door, after all, he and Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov were all old acquaintances, and it didn't matter if they said hello or not, so Zhou Ming was very straight to the point.

In this regard, Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov didn't mind, on the contrary, the theme in Zhou Ming's mouth was what they wanted to know the most. Tong Gang warmly beckoned Zhou Ming over and said, "We have found a few very good companies, and we called you over today for this matter." ”

Zhou Ming nodded and sat down, Tong Gang handed over a document to Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming introduced while looking at him: "Dell Computer Company, this is a computer company that has been established for less than five years, the president of the company is Mr. Michael, 24 years old this year, he founded Dell Company with 1,000 US dollars five years ago, and now its assets have exceeded 10 million US dollars; ”

Facing Tong Gang's introduction, Zhou Ming was a little dumbfounded, although he had a criminal record in Lin Muqing, Zhou Ming thought that he might hear some familiar names before he came, but he didn't expect Tong Gang to give himself such a familiar taste as soon as he came up.

Well, since it's a familiar taste, then let's just say it.

Zhou Ming thought so in his heart, and said at the same time: "I know that this Dell computer company is using a direct business model to eliminate inventory, which is a way of direct communication with customers, and customers directly send orders to the company. ”

Tong Gang gave Zhou Ming a thumbs up: "It's worthy of Zhou Ming's little brother, even Dell can know it, it seems that you have also done a lot of homework." ”

Zhou Ming smiled without embarrassment, and said in his heart that he didn't know? In his previous life, his favorite thing to use was the Dell computer, even if he was called a stupid Duodai, so he naturally had an understanding of Dell's development model.

"So Chairman Tong, are you going to sit on Dell?" Zhou Ming asked.

Tong Gang nodded and said: "Dell's development process is very fast, and now it has not been listed, and his stock has been speculated, so it has room to sit in the bank." Of course, there is another point, his direct sales model in a short period of time because of the elimination of middlemen, can provide high profits for the company, but this practice itself is against the market, the future is likely to be squeezed out by the middlemen, also has short-term conditions. ”

Zhou Ming didn't rush to express his position, but first asked Li Cheng and Ilbedov: "Do you think the same way?"

Li Cheng and Ilbedov both nodded, and Zhou Mingcai shook his head and said: "But I am just the opposite of your opinion, I think Dell is a company with great investment value, and his company's stock will rise like a rocket after being listed, and it will grow into a Fortune 500 company within a few years, and what supports all this is his direct sales model." ”

Tong Gang wanted to say something, but Zhou Ming said first: "Chairman Tong, I know, you think that his direct sales model will make him conflict with the middleman, but this is in the computer industry, from the perspective of the development in recent years, the future development of computers will be faster and faster, and the replacement will be faster and faster, so long-term inventory is not necessary, just in line with the business philosophy of the direct sales model." ”

"There is another point, which is the problem between him and the middleman. I know that this kind of job snatching is as bad as killing my father, but anything can be converted," Zhou Ming said, "Who stipulates that a middleman must be a middleman and cannot become a customer?"

Listening to Zhou Ming's explanation, Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov suddenly realized, and Zhou Ming finally said: "So if you want to invest in Dell, I agree, but I personally don't approve of sitting here." ”

Tong Gang nodded, and then directly helped Zhou Ming turn the page of Dell, and he continued: "Apple, an old computer company in California, has also had a personal computer revolution in the past, but now the business situation is getting worse, and the sales of the latest products are very poor, but with his heritage, it can still be packaged." ”

Zhou Ming still shook his head and said: "Like Dell, this company is also very promising for development, if you want to invest or even become a shareholder of Apple, I support it very much, but if you want to sit on Apple, it is not a good choice." ”

In the face of Zhou Ming's opposition one after another, Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov were not angry, on the contrary, they were still very happy, after all, Zhou Ming was really doing things with his heart, just imagine that if Zhou Ming had not learned about these companies, it would be impossible to calculate the gains and losses in the middle, and analyze things so thoroughly, of course, they were shocked in addition to being happy.

You must know that the three of them searched for two days in the stock market to find these companies, but Zhou Ming had already analyzed them, this is too perverted, right?

But in fact, Zhou Ming himself also felt very distressed, he knew very well that he was not as knowledgeable as he pretended, but all they said were companies he had heard of, so what could be done?

Tong Gang then pointed out the next company to Zhou Ming: "The entertainment company, is a company registered in Virginia, newly established for only two years, and it was also listed with the high-tech stock market bubble at this moment, mainly engaged in computer game business, the company's business looks very good, and there is no problem with the financial statements, but the company's innovation is very poor, maybe this can become our company." ”

An entertainment company?

Zhou Ming searched in his mind for a long time and never heard the name of this company, and then he glanced at Lin Muqing again, Lin Muqing shook his head at him, obviously he hadn't heard of it either.

Although I haven't heard of it, it may just be that the company has not rushed out of the United States, and I need to be cautious.

With such thoughts, Zhou Ming nodded silently and then asked Tong Gang: "Are there any other companies?"

Tong Gang replied: "There are also Quincy Computer Company in Brighton, and Taylor Software Company, they are both computer software companies that have taken advantage of this high-tech stock bubble, and their financial situation is not bad compared to other companies, but they lack core competitiveness, and their presidents are not so capable, so I think these companies that are not up or down can be used to sit in the bank." ”

"Okay, I know, I'll take all the materials of these companies back and read them slowly, but I think Quincy Computer Company will forget it first, after all, he is in Cambridge, and it was founded by several Harvard graduates, and if it is used to sit in the bank, I am afraid it will cause trouble. Zhou Ming said.

Tong Gang thought for a moment and replied: "That's true, then just cross out the Quincy Company and choose one of the two companies, Arts and Taylor." ”

Zhou Ming asked rhetorically: "Why choose one of the two, wouldn't it be good for the two to go together? Since these two companies are not big, then I think we are fully capable of manipulating them together, right?"

A very simple rhetorical question, but Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov were shocked on the spot.

Indeed, since choosing one of the two is so troublesome and a headache, wouldn't it be better to just do the two together?

After all, sitting on two Zhuang at the same time is not only as simple as one plus one equals two, but it takes more energy to accurately grasp the movements of both sides. That's why even those big conglomerates, when it is not necessary, will not sit on two villages at the same time, just come one by one.

"Zhou Ming, are you really sure you want to do this? I know you are ambitious, but that's not how things work. Tong Gang persuaded very tactfully.

Zhou Ming said with a smile: "Chairman Tong, of course I understand the problem of sitting in two villages at the same time, but our situation is different, first of all, our goals are all very small enterprises, which can be fully controlled with our funds, and then manpower." ”

Zhou Ming said this, glanced at Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov before he continued: "Chairman Tong, you are all business tycoons in your respective circles, I think you must have a group of your own traders under your hands, right?

"And as long as you sit down in a village and there is one left, I believe that me and my finance class can handle it. Zhou Ming said and asked at the end, "Could it be that you plan to let me do it alone?"

Listening to Zhou Ming's words, Tong Gang, Li Cheng, and Ilbedov all felt ashamed, because they didn't think about the division of labor and cooperation at all, and in their thoughts, Zhou Ming did it alone.

But no matter how ashamed they were, they still had to ask cheekily: "Little brother Zhou Ming, but in this way, isn't it equivalent to separating the family?"

Zhou Ming smiled in his heart, he knew very well that Tong Gang Li Cheng and Ilbedov would say this, it was nothing more than that they were used to sitting and making money, and they were used to having their own money to help them, but it didn't matter, after all, in the current situation, he really needed to rely on them.

So Zhou Ming said: "Of course not, with the stable growth point of the military industrial enterprise sector here, we don't need to withdraw all the money, so since we all have a common amount of money to invest through the investment model, it is not considered a separation, right?"

In the face of Zhou Ming's statement, Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov exchanged glances with each other, and finally Tong Gang said: "Okay, just do what you said Zhou Ming's little brother, let's first select each company to study, but if there is any news, we must tell each other as soon as possible." ”

Zhou Ming shrugged his shoulders meaninglessly and said, "Of course." ”

"In that case, it is without further ado, after all, now that the bubble of high-tech stocks has formed, no one knows when it will be punctured, and the time is very tight. Tong Gang said.

Li Cheng and Ilbedov also agreed with Tong Gang's words, but when they were about to leave to prepare separately, Tong Gang's mobile phone suddenly rang, and Tong Gang answered it and showed a very puzzled expression.

"It was from the stockbroker who said there was something wrong with my account and I thought I had to go to New York. Tong Gang said.

"Okay, I hope it's not a big problem, otherwise without Mr. Tong Gang's funds, our bank may not be able to be completed well. Ilbedov said.

Compared with Ilbedov's jokes, Zhou Ming frowned slightly unnaturally, and had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Leaving the villa, Lin Muqing asked Zhou Ming what was wrong, and Zhou Ming sighed and shook his head and said, "I hope it's my own delusion, but I always have a bad premonition." ”
