Chapter 6 If you are not stupid, you are afraid that you are stupid
May 3, 11 p.m.
The Gu Play family has fallen asleep.
But some of them just like to calculate people's old yin ratio in the dark, and this point is obviously not asleep.
The scene moved back to the headquarters of the "Fengyun Fund" where Zhou Xuan worked.
He Zihang, whose eyes were bloodshot, had just sent Xie Daqiang away half an hour ago.
From the afternoon, he put down the other work at hand and spent a few hours sorting out a draft of the outline of TS based on Xie Daqiang's BP, just waiting for the big boss to look at it.
"Mr. Wang is here. With a shuddering sound and whispering outside, all the people who still insisted on working overtime were in good spirits and working hard without distractions.
I just hate that in this era, there is no real-time circle of friends on mobile phones, only BB space.
If you don't get seen by your boss for overtime, isn't that in vain?
The boss's name is Wang Jingming, and he has always had a working style of working day and night, and he usually arrives at the company at eight o'clock in the evening - that is still when there is no drinking party to socialize.
If you come to work after staggering with customers or regulators like today, the standard is 11 o'clock. Then I went back at four or five o'clock in the morning, and slept until noon.
Many big bosses have such a schedule, because they don't do things themselves, but listen to reports and assign tasks.
Therefore, it is necessary to wait for the subordinates to finish their day's work before they can listen. And their instructions will also become a problem for subordinates to solve tomorrow.
"Mr. Wang, can I delay you for two minutes, I have a relatively tight fast-in and fast-out project here, please take the time to take a look." ”
On the way to his office, Wang Jingming was stopped by He Zihang with a flattering face.
He was going around on a routine tonight, and he didn't have any fixed agenda, so he listened casually: "You come to my office in five minutes." ”
"Okay, Mr. Wang. ”
As the boss of the fund, he will not go to his manager's office to talk about things, and his subordinates must report to his office.
A few minutes later, He Zihang said the situation in a general manner.
Wang Jingming's first reaction was also that Xie Daqiang's project shark arm gave He Zihang a roll of the eyes.
But He Zihang was in high spirits and added a wave of extravagant embellishments: "Boss, I know that this project is a lie, and it will definitely collapse if it doesn't survive the IPO, but after all, this is the hottest sharing economy outlet at present."
The sharing economy has been speculated since the second half of the previous year, and it has been speculated for 22 months, and it is easy to think of operating bicycles, chargers, battery cars, renting bags, and borrowing toilets...... There are at least a dozen competitors on these tracks, and they have already been killed in the Red Sea.
Just because the shared phone booth sounds the most unreliable, the competition is not fierce, that Xie Daqiang, finally achieved the first place in the industry, because he is currently the only one in this industry who has entered on a large scale. He had taken the angel wheel before, and the work was landed, and I didn't dare to say that there were other foolish people like him in China, but at most it was pure PPT, and I didn't even write a phone booth sample and a server-side software for mobile phone SMS verification.
Let's just tell Xia Jiaming: We know that this project has no future, but they can definitely find a more stupid next home to get rid of before they goof...... This is not necessarily without a future. ”
Wang Jingming touched his beard and thought about it, it did make some sense.
Fengyun Fund actually has an unspeakable trouble now, that is, too much money has been raised, the money is idle, and there are too few good projects worth investing in on the market.
In fact, this situation is very common in the financial world of the Blue Hole Star, the eastern country has already calculated, and the surplus of hot money in the ocean country on the other side is even more serious, so every ten or eight years, there must be a wave of financial crisis and burn some spare money.
Because people in this world expect money to make money, so slightly better private equity funds always have no shortage of sources of funds, but they can't find enough places to make this money.
After Wang Jingming smoothed out his thoughts, he asked bluntly: "But the flaws in this project are too obvious, are you sure you can make your next family believe that 'the next family will still have the next family'?"
As long as you can trick the person who beats the drum and passes the flowers, there will be someone to take the next stick, then even if you know that this stick is a time bomb, there will be people who are greedy for money to pass it.
I know this project is stupid, and I know I'm not stupid, but I don't know how stupid the stupidest people in the world are.
As a layman, without big data, I don't know how large the total population of fools in this world is and how much spare money those fools can cheat together.
This is not a solar water heater, but more like an air energy water heater - solar energy needs absolute energy radiation to boil water, but air energy can boil water as long as there is a temperature difference.
No matter how cold the environment is, as long as one place is colder than another, forming a convective temperature difference, there is room for arbitrage, which is determined by the second law of thermodynamics and the Carnot cycle.
The drumming of financial speculation can also be a Carnot cycle. I'm not afraid that everyone is too smart or too stupid, I'm afraid that there is no gap in everyone's IQ.
He Zihang faced the boss's key question, took a deep breath, and then confided: "I have a few friends in the investment community, mainly who invest in the media and entertainment industry, and recently introduced me to a few big fat sheep - that is a handful of coal bosses, who mainly projected film and television dramas in the past few years, and they have always wanted to enter the investment circle of Internet +, but they are looked down upon by insiders and do not take them to play, so the requirements are relatively low."
As long as our fund dares to invest in the PRE-A round with its own funds, I am sure to fool them into authorizing the private equity share to invest in the A round and B round, and at the latest in the B round, I will release a smoke bomb, pretending that our fund has more radical projects and needs to concentrate its own funds to invest in large projects.
When the time comes, pretend to 'endure the pain' and slightly double the A round of Xie Daqiang's case and transfer it to those coal bosses for their private equity shares, and they will definitely be willing to take over - as long as we disguise a few more intentional C round followers at that time, so that they can see confidence. ”
Of course, the C-round follower pig will definitely not appear, but it is just to create an illusion for the coal bosses that the C-round follower pig exists.
What He Zihang thought in his heart was actually to use the signboard of the "Fengyun Fund" to pull the banner of the tiger and deepen the follow-up confidence of the coal bosses he wanted to hook up. Otherwise, he would not have such a big face just by fooling around with red lips and white teeth.
He also thought about how he would use the risk clauses in the investment agreement to get out if the immortal jump was successful and let the coal bosses be the last pick-up man.
Investment is risky, so you need to be cautious when entering the market. No matter how good he He Zihang's bragging, it has no legal effect, and what is effective is the clause written in black and white. You believe in my brother's bragging, you deserve it.
As long as the company makes money, the official business will be solved according to the law, and those rough coal bosses will not have a chance to bite back.
Moreover, in the venture capital circle, everyone also thinks that the coal boss is not a person, and this kind of thing will not damage the company's reputation.
Just like the ocean country on the other side of the planet, there is a place called Selenium Valley, where if the venture capital fund deceives the big oil dog to take over, the peers will only use it as a talking point, and will not join forces to guard against boycott.
Aren't the big dogs qualified to be counted as humans? Aren't they just used to be slaughtered and eaten for meat?
Wang Jingming's eyes lit up slightly, and then asked quietly: "Xiao He, have you dealt with the coal bosses before?"
He Zihang was stunned: "I haven't done their projects directly, but I listened to my friends in the film and television investment industry, and talked about the temperament of many coal bosses to invest money, and they also had dinner with coal bosses." ”
"Hehe, you haven't done business with the other party, so you dare to play such an immortal jump? The coal boss is bold when he gives money, but if you really dare to let them lose all their money, people will cut off their hands and feet according to the rules of the road, do you think the other party will obediently follow you through the legal route?" Wang Jingming silently complained in his heart that He Zihang was too young,
However, he is an old treacherous and cunning person, of course he will not say it on his lips, and his expression will not be revealed.
He estimated that the reason why He Zihang didn't hear about the murderous names of the coal bosses may be related to his single information channel - He Zihang also said that the friends in the investment community who introduced him to the coal boss were originally concentrated in the film and television investment industry, not the technology industry.
When the coal boss comes to the technology industry, he is running for money, so he is bold when he gives money, and he is particularly cruel when he loses money.
But going to the film and television industry is not purely for money - for film and television entrepreneurs, the coal bosses are really good people, even if you lose his money, as long as the heroine, the second daughter, and the third daughter in the crew work overtime for a few more months, and serve others comfortably, they will admit it if they lose it.
What off-the-counter resources do you use in the tech industry to appease the anger of the other party losing money?
Wang Jingming didn't break it, but just commanded with his own calculations: "Xiao He, since you are so confident in your resources, I am ready for this matter - but I said ugly things in the front, all the extra promises, let the followers and receivers dispel their guards, all in your own name, and the company only endorses the terms of the contract for you." You have to do everything outside of the contract, you know, and if you can, you can do it. ”
Wang Jingming's subtext is actually like this: If something happens in the future, and the other party wants to take legal means to fight a lawsuit, then the company will come forward to fight the case. But if the other party wants to cut off his hands and feet according to the rules of the road, then push He Zihang out and be knifed.
Anyway, the senior management of the "Fengyun Fund" can say that they don't know that they don't know the bragging, and the bragging, and patting their chests other than the terms of black and white are all He Zihang's own claims in order to pull performance.
The result was naturally happy: Wang Jingming, the old fox, pushed everything to He Zihang, but He Zihang still thought that he was a pure hunter, and the coal boss and the pick-up man were the prey.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.
He Zihang didn't see the problem here, and while pretending to be happy to agree, he changed his words without doing anything: "I will definitely share my worries for the company - alas, in fact, I didn't really want to take care of this matter at first." This Xie Daqiang came to find Zhou Xuan at the beginning.
As a result, Zhou Xuan didn't know what was going on, and today he actually sent an intern who didn't know the height of the sky to check the gates, and as soon as they met, he insulted the entrepreneurs and drove them away. Hearing that there was also a physical altercation, that Xie Daqiang called the police at that time, and later went to the police station to make a record.
I was afraid that some of our family ugliness with irregular management would be publicized and make a big fuss, so I matched the newly made coal boss resources with Xie Daqiang's project, and said good words to Xie Daqiang, so that he withdrew the report. In fact, if you wait for another two months, you may indeed be able to find a more reliable project that is fast in and out. ”
He Zihang's words are very good at being a man. In fact, everyone knows that the eye medicine he will take later is today's drama meat.
Originally, although Xie Daqiang's material can be used, it is not necessary for Xie Daqiang, and there are other projects that can deceive the coal boss to take over, and there are also projects to look for, maybe the effect will be better.
But if you don't use Xie Daqiang, how can you make Xie Daqiang bite Zhou Xuan crazy? Let the dog bite the person and give it a bone. What's more, Xie Daqiang was used, and he really cheated the money in the end, which proves that Zhou Xuan is not only incompetent in management, but also has a bad vision.
Then Zhou Xuan is finished, and it is impossible for Wang Jingming to be reused for the rest of his life - this is He Zihang's core interests.
He chose to help the boss solve the trouble, and then casually complained about it, and he didn't say anything about the details that he shouldn't know, and let the boss check it himself.
This is very deep hidden merit and fame.
As for Xie Daqiang, when he was kicked out by Gu Play in the afternoon, he pushed and shoved and bumped slightly, such as hurting a few bags on the glass door or something, this is all a good thing and a big thing - see clearly, it is not a big thing that becomes a small thing, but a small thing that becomes a big thing. If the situation requires Xie Daqiang to go to the police station to report a case, mentioning Zhou Xuan and Gu Wan, with his kind of extremely thick-skinned person, he will definitely not be stingy with face.
Although Wang Jingming knows He Zihang's thoughts, he will not break it. After all, he needs to reward his subordinates who are dedicated to the company's sake, even if the other party's motives are not pure.
As long as the other party can use it for you, it doesn't matter whether your inner thoughts are selfless or not.
"Oh, is there anything else going on?" Wang Jingming asked indifferently, and then didn't say much to He Zihang, just picked up the phone on the table and called the administrative assistant, "Xiao Liu, what is Zhou Xuan's work schedule today? What customers is he currently following up?"
