Chapter 195: Some Changes (2)

In New York, there are very few people who will talk to Qi Yi about his girlfriend.

As soon as Qi Yi heard someone ask about Yan Yun, he became energetic.

not only talked about when he and Yan Yun met, how they broke up, but also how they found Yan Yun in Melbourne later.

Even Yan Yun talked about what school he was in, what he studied, where he would go to study in the future, and when he would come to New York.

An is the kind of gentleman who listens with great interest, I don't know if he is really interested in listening or out of politeness, and listens with great interest from beginning to end, and occasionally expresses some surprise and understanding.

It was during this chat that An said that he had a personal relationship and might be able to introduce Yan Yun to Salvatore Ferragamo for an internship.

In this way, when An left, Qi Yi and An often got in touch.

The next day, after finding out what kind of works and portfolios need to be provided for the internship position, An forwarded the email to Qi Yi.

It was from that time that Qi Yi began to help Yan Yun collect the materials he needed.

…………………………

At Barclays, it has always been a very special existence.

His performance is very good, and he is also very nce, with An's qualifications, he should not be just a VP of an investment bank.

In fact, the people under AN's original hands have all been promoted to the CEO of ED, and they are still recommended by AN.

It's not that he doesn't have the opportunity to be promoted, but he doesn't want to be promoted, otherwise, two years ago, the position of CEO would have been his.

An has always said that he thinks the position of VP is very good, and if you go up, it is more about management rather than looking directly at the project.

He likes front-line investment banking work and is unwilling to spend most of his time on management.

AN's vision for investment is very accurate and unique.

He was airborne when he arrived at Barclays, and he was directly a VP when he came.

An was a VP at Barclays for five years, and the revenue of the plate he took over, except for the first year, was eight times, and the next four years were all more than ten times.

Ten times this data, and the return on investment that is often heard in China, often 100 times and 1,000 times, is actually nothing.

But whether it is Wang Gang's 500-fold return on Didi's investment or Xu Xiaoping's thousand-fold return on Jumei's investment, it is all angel investment.

When angels invest in, the company's plate is usually extremely small, and a small hundreds of thousands can even account for half of the equity.

Angel investments have a high rate of return but a higher failure rate.

It is impossible for a large investment institution like Barclays to do angel investment, and it is impossible to invest tens of millions of dollars in a project, even if it is a dollar, and the scale of tens of billions of funds in large investment banks will come to an end.

If you can't invest money, you can't make money out of money. Big investment banks have money, but what they lack is big projects.

Most of the time, the larger the plate, the smaller the growth in earnings. It's pretty easy to explain.

You go from having one dollar to owning a thousand dollars, which is not very powerful, and it is estimated that everyone can do it.

You go from having 10,000 yuan to owning 10 million, even if it is more powerful, most people can't do it.

You go from having 100 million to 100 billion, which is what ordinary people can't.

When An arrived at Barclays, the plate he took over was worth $300 million, and when An left, his plate was three times the size of when he took over, reaching $10 billion.

Of course, Wall Street has much more exaggerated myths than AN, but even so, AN should definitely be considered one of Wall Street's best investors.

It's just that before leaving Barclays, An had always kept a low profile.

There is also a bit of mystery and wonder in the low-key.

Mysteriously, no one knows the background of An.

The strange thing is in An's hobby.

An seems to be keen to get to know new employees, such as induction training, which can be done by any HR, and An, as a VP, also has to go into battle from time to time.

…………………………

An came out of Barclays to form his own company.

When Qi also helped Yan Yun prepare a portfolio for his internship, he also helped An solve two problems encountered in data processing.

Qi also used his own algorithm to help An make a visualization software that allows those data that are not hidden to be automatically compared and classified.

In Qi Yi's view, in addition to hidden data, as long as the computer can complete the analysis independently, there is no need to waste so much manpower and material resources.

Qi Yi's reciprocation soon gave An the idea of poaching people.

In his future team, if there is a researcher like Qi Yi, it will definitely be a tiger with wings.

An duly expressed the idea of poaching Yiqi to his new company.

Qi Yi did not agree directly, but said that he would first find out what An was going to do, and then see if there were any further plans.

The mystery has always been for people who are far away.

An wants to dig people, and it is impossible not to tell Qi Yi his "details".

An is a rich three generations.

Although his grandfather had been dead for six years, it took only a few months for An to get his inheritance from the family's trustfund.

The trustfund can decide at what time, where, under what conditions, and in what way the beneficiary will receive his or her property.

The big capitalists in the old capitalist countries are not only worried that they will not be rich for three generations, but also that their children and grandchildren will be ruined and will have no way to live.

The way to address this concern is to set up a trust fund.

The trustfund can be set up to pay a lump sum to the beneficiary, or it can give a fixed amount every year or even every month, similar to receiving a salary or pocket money.

If the person who receives a fixed salary is called an iron rice bowl, the person who receives the trust fund can be regarded as a golden rice bowl.

Qi Yi didn't know what kind of inheritance conditions were set by An's family trust fund, in short, An met all the settings four months ago and got more than $100 million in his name.

After leaving Barclays, An changed his low-key style.

He does not shy away from his family background. And set up a private equity fund with his surname.

More than 100 million US dollars, for the general public, that is astronomical, but for a good private equity fund, the volume is still a bit small.

Even if you are as rich as AN, it is a bit unsatisfactory to use your own money to do private equity in the United States.

An doesn't want to start with a large private equity fund, he hopes that by the end of the year, his private equity fund can start with $300 million, and then enter a closed period and no longer accept new funds. ...
