At this moment, on Wall Street in New York City, the world's largest investment fund company, Aurora Fund, is holding a regular working meeting.

Aurora Fund Co., Ltd. was founded in the 70s of the last century, and has a history of more than 30 years, with total assets of more than 200 billion US dollars, and more than 20 funds under its management, of which the largest single fund has a scale of more than 30 billion US dollars.

Like the Ocean Fund that Fred once managed, it is completely pediatric in front of the Aurora Fund, and it is not even as powerful as one of his smallest business units.

On Wall Street, there are quite a few large fund companies like Aurora Fund Company, and they sometimes even form a larger alliance to manipulate more than a trillion dollars in assets to form a terrifying financial deterrent capability.

With the continuous improvement of the openness of countries around the world, these financial forces on Wall Street control the direction of global assets and control the future of the world with the power of capital.

In front of them, even those powerful Internet companies must be respectful, after all, capital and resources are in their hands, they can make a company's valuation soar in an instant, or it can fall to the bottom all of a sudden.

One ordinary morning, at the regular work meeting, President Schmidt looked at the latest market analysis report, a routine report of more than 30 pages thick was not common for him, about three days on average, he would see such a report.

Schmidt flipped to one of the pages, and the report mentioned a burgeoning internet investment platform that caught his intense attention. His falcon-like gaze was firmly fixed on the company, and his mind was thinking about mystery.

This platform company is the ark company invested by Li Feng.

Although the current Ark Company is not too famous, its growth rate is very amazing, and the most important thing is that its operation model has been recognized by the market, and at the same time, it has achieved small-scale profits through operation.

The Ark itself is an investment platform, facing some start-up high-tech entrepreneurial projects, these projects lack the ability to raise funds, so relying on the Ark platform to release financing needs, through the platform's review, give it a professional evaluation level, in the platform of the trading market, so that investment institutions continue to understand and finally reach the investment intention.

This new way of investing breaks with traditional investment thinking, and Schmidt feels refreshed.

Aurora Fund is a high-risk open-end fund company, whose main business is to invest in stocks, bonds, foreign exchange and commodities around the world, and some of its business is also related to angel investment.

In particular, the rapid rise of the Internet economy in recent years has made great progress in the Internet angel investment business of Aurora Fund Company, and has even developed into an important investment business of the company.

Schmidt called Weiner, the head of the Aurora No. 8 fund, who is in charge of the Internet venture capital business, and handed him the key points he had drawn in the analysis report.

"President, are you interested in the Ark platform?" Weiner asked, taking the report.

Schmidt, as a financial predator at the helm of a huge capital empire of 200 billion US dollars, usually does not pay much attention to these small Internet projects, but today he sketched a picture of the Ark platform, indicating that he is suddenly interested in it.

"Yes, Weiner, this platform company is kind of interesting, how much do you know about them?" Schmidt asked, looking out the window at the bustling neighborhoods.

"I don't know much about it, but I just know that it is a newly emerging Internet venture capital platform in Silicon Valley, and it is also an investment in start-up projects. Weiner said, "To put it simply, he is the Internet of information, and the main target customers are small and medium-sized investment funds and low-end entrepreneurs who lack market information, so in the market, everyone does not pay much attention to it, and even looks down on it." ”

Schmidt shook his head: "I don't think so, the Internetization of information is not only an update of this tool, but also an upgrade of the business model, which can change the logic of the company's operation, and at the same time change the market behavior." This Ark company is like this, judging from the data in the analysis report, their growth is very high, and everyone's recognition is also very high. Although it is relatively low-end now, you have to see that whether it is the platform, or the investors and entrepreneurial projects involved in the platform, they are all growing. ”

"You mean that in the future, the platform will incubate a large number of high-quality startups?" Weiner seems to be unconvinced.

Although Schmidt's statement makes logical sense, in Weiner's view, it is still too idealistic, and to put it bluntly, it is a bit of a hypothesis.

In fact, the resources and information of high-quality projects have long been in the hands of large investment companies, and for those grassroots entrepreneurs and grassroots investors, their opportunities are actually very small, if not very small.

For example, if there is a grassroots entrepreneur who creates an e-commerce platform like Global Mall in the American market now, then he will soon be beaten down by Global Mall and have almost no chance to rise.

Therefore, in the highly developed market of the United States, there are obvious barriers to entrepreneurship, and the possibility of developing from the grassroots to a towering tree is almost non-existent, which analysts in the investment community have already calculated accurately through mathematical methods.

Weiner does not pay attention to the entrepreneurial and investment behaviors of these grassroots classes, believing that they are completely blind and unable to make any big waves.

"Weiner, I believe in strict investment probability formulas, but if you take a ten-year horizon, these probability formulas often don't work at all, do you know why?" Schmidt paused and said, "That's because the environment has changed, and the internal pattern has also changed, so that the original subtraction becomes addition, and division becomes multiplication, so they change in an instant, and suddenly they grow." And the real power of this Ark platform, I think that's here. ”

"You mean he's changing the current landscape of Internet startups?" Weiner asked.
