No matter how big the role of finance is, it can't shake Zhou Shi's determination now, and his development direction is in the aspect of high-tech Internet culture and entertainment, and finance is his tool rather than a part of him.

"So you're not going to take finance as your core industry?" Lu He asked with some frustration

"That's right, I'm going to build a financial holding company system, so that all the companies under it operate independently and help each other. As for finance, it is necessary to provide sufficient capital for enterprises in the initial stage, and when these companies have grown, they can focus on their own development. "Zhou Shi

"In other words, you won't restrict the development of the company's super-financial direction?" Lu He

"Well, I don't want to say it, but I think the future may be an era when capital is king. If there is no financial help, there may be a lot of flaws," Zhou Shi

"What the hell do you mean by that?" Lu He said expressionlessly

"It's not interesting, most of the money we make through the financial market now is used to support the development of other industrial companies, and after about five years, these companies have grown, and we will cut off the financial support of these companies. "Zhou Shi

"Do you have a specific idea?"

"I still need you to refer to it, add" Zhou Shi

"What do you want to do?"

"I think like this: Galaxy Capital, as the controlling parent company, has time holdings, Guoke Group, Starlight Film and Television Group and Sixiang Fund. Zhou Shi expressed his specific thoughts, and then detailed his design for the future development direction of these companies.

Time Holdings' subsidiaries include Time Friends, Time Network (including music, etc.) and video websites to be established. Needless to say, Friends Network, similar to Facebook in the previous life, is a global company. Time.com may exist more in the mainland, and will develop O2O business in the future, integrating the functions of Maoyan or Taopiao. Video sites follow the path of iQiyi or Netflix.

Guoke Group will focus on the layout of smart phones, mainly mid-to-high-end Guoke mobile phones, and low-end nut mobile phones. Then there are mobile phone chip design companies, and there are operating system Android companies. There are other key spare parts such as screen memory, or to think of more ways, international cooperation is the best choice.

Starlight Group is mainly responsible for filming film and television dramas and animations, Starlight Film and Television, as well as Starlight Culture, which launches variety shows.

The Vermilion Bird of the Four Elephant Fund is mainly responsible for high-risk hedge funds, the Xuanwu Fund is mainly responsible for the stock market and fixed income products, the Qinglong Fund is mainly a high-tech venture capital, and the White Tiger Fund is mainly a private equity investment fund that learns from Carlyle and BlackRock.

"Why didn't you say Twitter and YouTube?" Lu He was keenly aware of something

"I always feel like I can't keep these two companies!" This time Twitter and YouTube are in the limelight in Silicon Valley, Sequoia's Moritz and Google's Schmidt are too abnormal, there seems to be no big reaction, Zhou Shi is not a major shareholder of YouTube, and the relationship with several founders is not impeccable, especially Google has not continued to increase investment in their own video sites, it seems to be a little laissez-faire, if it weren't for a very certain next step, they should not be so stable, Zhou Shi felt a little uneasy.

"You've been in the limelight too much lately!" Lu He

"Do you think so too?" Zhou Shi asked curiously

"Twitter and YouTube together have had more impact than many people can imagine. More than 2 billion people around the world watched PPAP-related videos, and more than 30 million people participated in the topic on Twitter, from schools to companies to government agencies. The influence of the Internet on reality is simply pervasive. "Lu He

"How do you know the specific data?" Zhou Shi asked in surprise, some data was not released to the public, and Zhou Shi did not tell him......

"A man named Lu Peining approached me and wanted to work with him further. "Lu He

"Lu Peining, where is it, the mainland or the United States?" Zhou Shi

He is the head of a team of advisers to Senator O'Ao. Lu He said without being salty.

"Ao Guanhai? Election?" Zhou Shi asked in surprise, is he going to establish contact with Ao Guanhai so early?

"Probably, I didn't say the specifics, but we're friends now. "Lu He

"I feel like this person is very important, and the fact that they found this place so quickly is that one is a sign of their ability and the other is their vision. It is necessary for us to maintain a good relationship. ”

"I know that. "Lu He

"By the way, what do you think about our future development, we will adjust it on the fly. ”

"The general direction is nothing, let's discuss the specific situation carefully!" Lu He

"No problem, I just have time now!" Zhou Shi is ready to clarify the status relationship of all the companies under his umbrella this time, and lay the foundation for the next stage of development.

However, within a few days of his imaginary leisure, a Chinese organization called the "Committee of 100" in the United States found Zhou Shi and invited him to a party.

Zhou Shi deliberately checked the Committee of 100, which is a non-profit organization composed of outstanding Chinese-Americans, with members from business, politics, academia and various artistic fields, initiated and established by the world-renowned architect I.M. Pei and cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and has always been committed to its two major missions, that is, to promote the full participation of Chinese Americans in American social life, and to promote the development of constructive relations between the United States and the Greater China region. The membership qualifications of the 100-person club are very strict, and must be recommended by members, and will only be accepted after all other members have passed the review. Seeing this, Zhou Shi secretly speculated that the China Entrepreneur Club would not be composed of a hundred people, right?

The chairman of this term is Fu Luren, a retired major general of the U.S. Army, who served as the president of McDonnell Douglas China and the vice president of Boeing China. McDonnell Douglas can't be a liar, Zhou Shi still remembers that because of the cooperation with McDonnell Douglas, the development of China's large aircraft was delayed by several decades. I don't know if this person played a bad role. However, Zhou Shi didn't see this president, he was old, maybe he was a nominal president!

When Zhou Shi and Lu He arrived at the headquarters of the Committee of 100 in New York, they learned that Yang Zhiyuan, Li Kaifu, Huang Jenxun, Zhang Yaqin and other colleagues in the high-tech field were also members of the Committee of 100. Only Chinese-Americans can join the Committee of 100.

I thought there would be something going on at this meeting, but I didn't expect anything to happen. The person in charge of it only introduced the history and development of the Committee of 100, and then asked them if they were Chinese-Americans.

Zhou Shi and Lu He were naturally not, and then, nothing happened, and the two of them returned to the company. I didn't see any well-known people, and I didn't know why they invited me. But think about it, knowing that they are on Wall Street in New York, and the people who are interested in inviting them, think that they are not small people, they are either peers or politicians.

Since the two of them are happy to be concerned, they are also unhappy that they are not taken seriously. At this time, Zhou Shi was extremely looking forward to the arrival of the subprime mortgage crisis, and Zhou Shi, who had completed the original accumulation, would not let anyone ignore his achievements.
