Chapter 359: Raising Funds (Wan More Requests Subscription!)
Of course, it would be nice to have Mayor Bloomberg to help.
The vast majority of the guests here today are doing business, and the specifications are relatively high, which is similar to the one they participated in last night in Washington, but they belong to two fields, and they are all elites.
Bloomberg News, founded by Mayor Bloomberg, is now one of the world's most influential financial media organizations, and its influence is no less than Forbes, or even stronger.
Doing business is afraid of scandals, Bloomberg News will break some news at random, some people on the scene may go bankrupt, or lose their jobs, plus the identity of the mayor of New York, even if you don't give Ye Dongqing face, you will definitely give face to Mayor Bloomberg Sr.
The super-rich who engage in the media are definitely the most difficult type to deal with, and even the super-rich who sell weapons for a living do not want to offend them easily.
For example, military spending has been rising, and if any super-rich person engaged in the media jumps out and says that he is wasting taxpayers' money, and that the phenomenon of greed and waste is serious, it will inevitably arouse heated discussions, and it is very likely that some people's incomes will plummet.
The tycoons behind the oil and arms industries like to make a fortune in silence, and they are most reluctant to be mentioned by the public, because they have many tricks to grasp, such as war, destroying the environment, affecting the stability of the international order, and so on.
In terms of influence, Ye Dongqing is far worse than Mayor Bloomberg, but if the resources in the hands of the two are combined, the power is by no means as simple as one plus one equals two, and in terms of Facebook's current user base, it is indeed not weak.
An old group greeted the guests, the old Bloomberg was responsible for the introduction, and Ye Dongqing was busy socializing and meeting more people, this kind of favor was not small, the old mayor simply praised him as a flower, and someone on the spot expressed his willingness to consider investing in the newly established hedge fund company.
After a circle, the scale of funds may exceed one billion dollars, mainly depends on how to talk about it next.
"Central banks, sovereign wealth funds, large institutions, financial companies, insurance companies, wealth management companies and individual investors, these are your main targets, I don't know how ambitious you are, but what I can tell you is that the bigger the scale, the more difficult it is to manage, what data needs to be investigated in the future can tell my partners, formal data and analysis, you must not follow Bernard Madoff and go down the wrong path. ”
Walking forward, Mayor Bloomberg had a serious face, and he was about to take Ye Dongqing to contact the senior vice president of an insurance company.
Managing Bloomberg News for so many years, I should have seen a pig run if I haven't eaten pork, the old man knows the dark side of Wall Street very well, and he is worried that Ye Dongqing will not be able to resist the temptation and do something wrong one day in the future, so he specially instructed at this moment.
Money is just a number for people of his age, and he no longer pays attention to it before he decides to run for mayor, and feels that it is more meaningful to help the smart juniors pave the way, if it weren't for Ye Dongqing's achievements so high that he was amazed, he would be as nosy as he is now.
"I see what you mean. ”
Ye Dongqing said, "There is no need to learn from him, I am very confident in my previous investments, almost all of them are making money, why should I toss myself to prison? As for ambition, my idea is not small, I can't guess where this hedge fund can go in the future, but it should be not bad, if I can reach half of the achievements of Fidelity Investment Group, I can laugh in my dreams." ”
“...... No matter how much money you manage, it's just someone else's money, Fidelity Investment Group's own assets can only be said to be good, their family has grown to its current scale for more than 50 years, and it has successively merged many companies, and your freshwater is a sole proprietorship. When he said this, the elder Mayor Bloomberg was a little melancholy, thinking about what he was doing when he was twenty years old, and he was just an ordinary person who had just entered college...... It's all tears.
Accumulating wealth requires a process, like Bloomberg, like the old stock god Mr. Buffett is normal, putting aside the lucky ones who inherit the inheritance, you must know that Ye Dongqing is as self-made as they are, and it is incredible that he can do it today.
When it comes to the rich second generation, there is one at this moment.
Little Edward Johnson, even in front of his mother, has no intention of restraint, and not far from him stands a familiar Ye Dongqing, who seems to be a Hollywood star.
The other party and Little Edward did not get too close to each other, after all, they were about to get engaged, and they should pay attention to the impact on this occasion, but from the eye contact between the two of them, Ye Dongqing could guess that most of them had a leg.
At this time, little Edward came to join in the fun, and after politely greeting the old mayor, he told Ye Dongqing: "I have time later, my mother wants to talk to you about investment, maybe she will take out a sum of money from the family trust and hand it over to you to take care of, the amount is not small, this is all my credit, remember to arrange a surprise bachelorette night party for me before I get married, the more ...... The more interesting, the better. ”
I was going to say that the more chaotic the better, but Mr. Bloomberg was there, and this sentence was swallowed back by him, probably because of dieting and weight loss, little Edward looks thinner recently, and often posts some photos of workouts on Facebook.
Mr. Bloomberg happened to see his old friend and interjected, "Then you young people will talk first, and I'll go over there to say hello." ”
"Yes sir, I'll look for you later. Ye Dongqing replied, waiting for the old man to leave before asking, "How much money are you going to invest?" I may get a lot today, and I don't know where to invest." ”
"Hey, we're a team, we can bring others to make money, why don't you take my family? Don't think I don't know that you've invested in Google and scared away a few short guys, I'm sure you can." Little Edward has witnessed Ye Dongqing take off all the way, and now he believes in him more than Ye Dongqing himself, before and after, this fat man has earned more than 200 million US dollars because of those suggestions and investments, and he is determined to learn from Ye Dongqing all the way to the black.
“...... Little Edward, are you really going to plant a commercial spy next to me, you just bought it the day before yesterday, you know it?"
"As soon as I made a move, it was a big lever, which shocked several traders in my mother's company, how could I not know this kind of thing, don't think too much. ”
Little Edward's head shook quickly, which made Ye Dongqing feel that he had a ghost in his heart, thinking that when the time came, let people check the company's employees, and did not dwell on this topic more, and said: "There is no problem with investment, call me directly when you are ready to talk, there are so many customers of Fidelity Group, how about introducing me to some channels? I mean wait until I get off to a good start and have a good start." ”
"Okay, though, what can you give me in exchange?"
“...... Give you a fart!"
Ye Dongqing said without thinking.
