Chapter 251: Capital will come to the door on its own
Although the successful listing of Jinshan Software did not make Lei Jun feel very happy, as the current manager of Jinshan Software, he still has to do his duty.
In the evening of the same day, Jinshan Software held a banquet at the LaCrosse Hotel to entertain the representatives of the underwriters, market makers and business partners of Jinshan Software, and Ren Pingsheng was naturally among the invited guests.
At the banquet that night, women dressed in fragrant sideburns, men's suits and leather shoes, all holding cocktails, looking for people to talk to, Ren Pingsheng was introduced by Lei Jun, and also met many Hong Kong business people, including Intel, Lianxiang, Xinhong Yuan, Singapore Government Investment Corporation and other enterprises in Hong Kong, as well as some well-known figures in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Although Ren Pingsheng only had a short conversation with these people, he had a good understanding of Hong Kong's unique business culture.
Here, there is not as much red tape and politeness as mainland shopping malls, and there will be people who will directly come to the door to negotiate with interested projects and investments, and as long as there is an opportunity, everyone is discussing what projects are easy to make and what projects can be invested.
Just listening to it, most of the projects on the field are inseparable from the mainland, and the vast majority of people's careers are related to the mainland, which shows that the economic development of Chinese mainland has completely radiated to Hong Kong, and Chinese mainland has become a driving force for Hong Kong's development.
After walking a few laps, Lei Jun brought Ren Pingsheng to a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and introduced:
"This is Mr. Chen Lizong, who has been a good friend of mine for many years and an important investor in Jinshan, and the Dawn Capital he founded is very famous in the venture capital industry. ”
Chen Lizong is not tall, but he has a square face and big ears, good facial features, shiny hair, a high-end suit style, a well-cut fit, and a folded small square scarf in the pocket of the suit, and his appearance and demeanor are the same as the Hong Kong rich man in his impression.
Lei Jun turned to introduce Ren Pingsheng:
"This is Ren Pingsheng, whom I often mention to you, and the universal game he founded is currently the most powerful online game company in China. ”
Chen Lizong took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with Ren Pingsheng, and the two exchanged business cards.
He said in Mandarin with a Hong Kong accent:
"Mr. Ren is really young and promising, Mr. Lei has been praising you before, saying that your analysis of the economic situation is very insightful, and you are also very good at business management. Sure enough, it's better to be famous than to meet, and it's better to meet than to be famous. ”
Ren Pingsheng said humbly:
"Don't dare, Mr. Lei has an overreputation. I'm still in the entrepreneurial stage, and I still have a lot to learn. ”
Chen Lizong was noncommittal about his modesty, he led Ren Pingsheng to the floor-to-ceiling window, and said in a very kind tone:
"Mr. Ren, we have more than ten years of investment history in mainland China and are very supportive of local start-ups. ”
"I heard that Mr. Ren's company plans to go public in the United States, and I don't know if we can let Dawn Capital participate in the investment, we are very optimistic about you. ”
After Ren Pingsheng heard Chen Lizong's title, he had already expected such a thing, otherwise Lei Jun would not have specially brought himself to see him.
Dawn Capital has a good reputation in the venture capital industry, managing a number of US dollar and RMB funds, investing in well-known companies such as Sohu, Xiechen, and Seventh City, and is the main investor of the rice group founded by Lei Jun in the future, no wonder Chen Lizong has such a close relationship with Lei Jun.
Universal Games is currently in the intensive listing stage, and it stands to reason that it is necessary to continue to introduce institutional investors to provide full support for the next roadshow, but because the operating conditions of "Ideal World" are very good, the company's cash flow income is abundant, and there is no large capital expenditure at present, so Ren Pingsheng has not been in a hurry to raise funds.
But he didn't look for capital, but capital came to the door by itself.
Ren Pingsheng was groaning, but Chen Lizong thought that he had little intention and wanted to add some chips to persuade him from other aspects:
"Mr. Ren, I don't know if you know my brother's Hengrong Group?"
Hearing the words "Hengrong Group", Ren Pingsheng suddenly seemed to have something in his heart.
As one of the typical examples of Hong Kong real estate developers in China, Hengrong Group has been deeply involved in Hanhai City for many years, has a large amount of land in Hanhai City, and has developed many boutique projects.
To this day, their development of Hengrong Plaza is the most high-end and popular commercial complex in Hanhai City.
Chen Lizong looked at Ren Pingsheng's eyes with some emotion, and continued:
"I heard that you recently auctioned a piece of land in Hanhai City to prepare for development, and if the two of us can establish a friendly relationship, there are many possibilities for cooperation in real estate in the future. ”
Ren Pingsheng did not hesitate at this time, whether it is Dawn Capital or Hengrong Group, there are many intersections with Ren Pingsheng's current career, and the more such partners, of course, the better.
Thinking of this, Ren Pingsheng took the initiative to shake Chen Lizong's hand and said with a smile:
"Mr. Chen, Wanyou Games is honored to have the help of Dawn Capital. ”
Chen Lizong originally thought that he would have to spend a lot of time, but he didn't expect Ren Pingsheng to be so refreshing and crisp, which made him very happy.
He shook Ren Pingsheng's hand heavily and said with a smile:
"Mr. Ren is decisive, he is really a dragon and a phoenix among people, and we must be more close to each other in the future. ”
The two looked at each other and laughed in unison.
Ren Pingsheng and Chen Lizong had a very good conversation, and the two of them talked about the financing of Universal Games on the spot, regardless of the fact that they were now at the celebration reception of Jinshan Software.
When the two walked out of the hotel together, Chen Lizong also warmly invited Ren Pingsheng to his mid-level mansion for a small gathering, and Ren Pingsheng naturally agreed with a smile and promised to visit when he was free.
While they were standing in front of the LaCrosse Hotel and talking, a woman in black suddenly walked up and greeted Chen Lizong with a smile on her face.
"Hello Mr. Chen, I left a message with your secretary, and she said that you may not necessarily return to Hanhai, so I came to find you. ”
Chen Lizong showed a look of displeasure on his face, and he said to the woman in black:
"Miss Cai, didn't I reply to you last week? ”
This Miss Cai looks like she is in her early 30s, wearing a black professional suit, with a round face and big eyes, a small mouth, and she is not ugly.
Although Chen Lizong's posture was obvious, she still smiled stubbornly, she took out a stack of beautifully printed materials from her bag, and introduced it to Chen Lizong while flipping it:
"Mr. Chen, I came this time to introduce you to the latest book, this book is very well written, and the subject matter also has a lot of fans in the mainland, as long as we shoot it, it will definitely be popular on mainland TV, and the estimated income of tens of millions is not a problem"
Chen Lizong was a little impatient to put aside the materials handed over by Miss Cai, and he replied expressionlessly:
"Miss Cai, Anatole Capital has always focused on investment in the high-tech industry, and film and television production is not our area of interest, so please don't waste each other's time. ”
Chen Lizong's words were so obvious, but this Miss Cai still didn't give up, and said unrelentingly:
"Mr. Chen, you often come to the mainland, you must have seen the films we produced, "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" won 10% of the ratings just after it was released, our company is really promising, and the profits of the film and television industry are also very high, you can try it."
Ren Pingsheng has been watching coldly just now, like this kind of person who takes the initiative to come to the door to ask for investment, the vast majority of investors will not take it too seriously, not to mention that her project has been denied once, and if you continue to pester investors, there is nothing to gain except to prove that you are cheeky.
However, this Miss Cai is so persistent, which can also show her love for her company, and at the same time, it can also prove what kind of crisis her company is currently facing.
Wait, what's the name of that TV series she just mentioned?
There seemed to be a switch in Ren Pingsheng's mind that had been touched, and something vague began to appear.
At the same time, Chen Lizong's patience was completely exhausted, and his driver also drove the Rolls-Royce over, he shook off Miss Cai's entanglement, walked straight to the back door of the car, shook hands with Ren Pingsheng very politely, and said:
"Mr. Ren, remember our agreement. ”
Then he nodded, turned to the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, and left with Miss Cai's non-stop beckoning.
Ren Pingsheng turned around, looked at Miss Cai with a depressed and lost face, and smiled:
"What's wrong with your company and does it need to be invested?"
Miss Cai turned her head when she heard the sound and looked at the confident and extraordinary young man in front of her, with an expression of disbelief on her face.
