Chapter 598: Friendly Turmoil

Regardless of what the outside world thinks of YELP and the group buying model, YELP's financing is proceeding normally, and there is still an endless stream of people who are willing to invest, even if they know that the financing cost is not small and the financing amount will be very high. Yes, Zhou Shi will raise at least one billion dollars this time, and no business can be done without money, especially online car-hailing, without enough smartphone use, it is difficult to have great development. At the same time, how to educate consumers and make them change their consumption habits is also a big problem. There is no future without real money.

At this time, Sunac and AIA were listed one after another, and Sixiang Fund became the actual controller of AIA without accident. A pure Chinese enterprise acquired an insurance company with a long history and a market value of more than 200 billion soft sister coins, which is the third largest insurance company in China according to market value (Ping An and China Life are both about 500 billion soft sister coins at this time)! Fortunately, most people don't know about the shareholder information of Sixiang Fund, otherwise Zhou Shi would be in big trouble.

Hu Guniu, as the former president of Goldman Sachs China, is proud this time. Although Sixiang Fund acquired Huiyuan and Lao Fengxiang before, a local grassroots enterprise does not have a large international company. In the upcoming election of the chairman of the board of directors, he will also become the chairman of the board of directors of AIA as a shareholder representative. Such an achievement is something that the vast majority of Goldman Sachs people cannot do. It has rightfully received the greatest attention from the domestic and foreign media.

Gao Xiqing, Guo Guangchang and Jack Ma and others all directly congratulated Zhou Shi, in addition to domestic and foreign bigwigs, although Zhou Shi insisted on his Chinese nationality, which made some people very unhappy, but his achievements still won respect. Mobilizing tens of billions of dollars without any violations is not something that anyone can do.

"You have so many assets, why do you still want to stay in Yelp and start a business?" After congratulating Zhou Shi, Blancfan raised his own questions.

"Maybe it's the urge to change the world! "Zhou Shi, most of his entrepreneurial behaviors are based on prophets, and there are basically no changes brought about by himself. This is unbearable for Zhou Shi, who has built up his confidence and is a little arrogant, he doesn't want to live in the shadow of others. Of course, he will not give up the advantages he has established now and compete with ordinary people on the same starting line.

"The world is a better place because of people like you!" said Bellakfan with emotion.

"Actually, I'm nothing, I feel like I've succeeded without doing anything, and I don't know if it's too lucky, just like the fruit shell, although I had this idea for a long time, I really didn't expect it to be so successful......" Zhou Shi

"Yes, I also find it strange, I can do a lot of things you do, and I can do better, why do you succeed and I can't?"

"Why, if you have the answer, please remember to tell me so that I can continue to be successful in the long run. "Zhou Shi

"I want to know that I will definitely change myself first...... "Belrankevan

MD, even if you know, you don't have to, through this kind of low-probability event, there are no 100,000 people in the protagonist of the @ point, but there are six or seven billion people in the world, this probability is too low.

The two chatted with each other, and the outside world caused a lot of controversy about the price of Sixiang Fund's acquisition of AIA.

The focus at home and abroad is very different, most of the foreign countries discuss the matter itself, and the domestic consideration is more, such as the source of funds of the Sixiang Fund, whether it has caused the loss of state-owned assets, why the 10 billion dollar area buys a failed enterprise instead of investing in domestic construction...... The sudden blow made people appear without reacting.

"Mr. Zhou, I don't know, we haven't detected that someone has started this public opinion turmoil!" Chen Wen said with a gloomy expression, although she is not directly responsible for the public opinion monitoring department, but as the general manager, she feels responsible.

"Then leave these alone, just find a way to wash your name" Zhou Shi didn't care who gave the pressure of public opinion, a Chinese private financial enterprise that is not in the system will definitely bring worry to many incompetent and stubborn people with backward ideas.

Hu Guniu hurried back to China and faced all the turmoil.

Foreign countries have certain doubts about the acquisition of AIA by Sixiang Fund at such a high price, after all, compared with similar companies, this price is somewhat high. Even with a market capitalization of $30 billion, there is already a lot of premium. Therefore, there is almost no scolding for AIG and the U.S. Treasury Department, even if they think that they should not be sold to a Chinese company, they do not feel that there is anything wrong with this price. Hong Kong media thieves pay more attention to the future changes of AIA, but the addition of Xie Shirong alleviates a lot of worries, although his term of office is only three years, but it is enough for Sixiang Fund to completely control AIA.

Most people in China think that it is too expensive to buy, and it seems very unwise for Sixiang Fund to buy AIA at such a high price when there are almost no competitors. Didn't you see that China Life, Ping An, and China Development Bank all gave up their shareholdings? Why did the Four Elephants Foundation insist on going its own way? Whose problem is this?

Many things obviously have nothing to do with the public, and how to operate the Sixiang Fund is an internal matter of the company, even if the company goes bankrupt and goes bankrupt, it is difficult to have an impact on the domestic economic system. But even so, everyone is full of curiosity about everything about the Four Elephants Fund.

"We have enough assets to support our acquisition, and it will not have a big impact on the domestic industry. Hu Guniu confronted the doubts of all parties and held a press conference.

"Are all the funds you need for this acquisition your own funds?" the reporter asked

"There are three main sources of funds for this acquisition, one is our own funds, one is bank mortgages, and the other is the issuance of offshore low-interest corporate bonds, of which bank loans are only more than one billion US dollars, which is not a problem with our current strength. "Hu Group Niu

"What percentage of your own funds are you?"

"This is a company secret, no comment......" Hu Guniu

"As far as I know, the history of the Four Elephants Fund is less than five years, and the registered capital is only 10 million soft sister coins, how do you guarantee that you have the ability to pay the 10 billion US dollars" Reporter C, this is obviously prepared.

"We are the majority shareholders of Baidu and SAIC, as well as the majority shareholders of Friends.com, Guoke Mobile and Starlight Pictures, which have assets far exceeding $10 billion...... Hu said flatly

"Ah~~~" A few simple words, caused a big sensation, Sixiang Fund owns the shares of SAIC They know, but when will there be Baidu and ...... MD, I thought it was the vest of a state-owned enterprise, but it turned out to be a big tyrant!
