Just when the U.S. presidential election is in full swing, the domestic whiteness has been hesitating to buy which navigation website.

In fact, in the previous life, Baidu had already acquired hao123 in August, but in this life, because of the sudden rise of 265, Baidu has been hesitant internally.

From August to November.

The longer the time drags on, the more beneficial it is to the 265 navigation website, and by the end of October, the 265 navigation website has blatantly entered the top 100 of ALEXA's global Chinese search list;

Before April, hoa123, which accounted for most of the domestic navigation websites, regressed to more than 110 in the ranking.

Now the problem is that 265 traffic is indeed larger than hao123, but hao123 has also been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as a pioneer of domestic navigation websites, and whiteness is facing a dilemma.

The road to market for whiteness is imminent, and it can no longer be delayed.

Before the announcement of the U.S. presidential election, Baidu sent personnel to negotiate the acquisition.

Because the voice of the internal tendency to acquire hao123 is relatively strong, the whiteness personnel first went to Nanyue.

The specific process is not clear, but the relevant personnel of Baidu left Nanyue on the morning of the 3rd.

At 7 o'clock in the afternoon of the 3rd, Guan Qiu, who was in New York, received a call from Liu Jiping, vice president of Baidu.

The negotiation process was very simple, after the two sides exchanged a few words on the phone, Liu Jiping explained his intentions and reported a cash + stock acquisition method, Guan Qiu did not twist and pinch and said not to sell, and re-quoted a number according to the psychological price.

Liu Jiping couldn't accept it, or said that the price exceeded psychological expectations, and said that he would consider it again.

Just as Liu Jiping was about to hang up the phone, Guan Qiu suddenly re-quoted a number, greatly reducing cash while increasing the proportion of whiteness original shares.

Liu Jiping then called Li Yanhong for instructions.

After the two discussed, Li Yanhong personally called Guan Qiu.

The negotiation process was simple and quick, and in less than 3 minutes, the two sides reached an agreement.

Both Li Yanhong and Guan Qiu were very satisfied with the results.

……

At 6 o'clock in the morning of the 3rd, after hanging up the phone, Guan Qiu was so happy that he almost didn't turn over in bed.

He has just made a lot of money in the international crude oil market, he is not short of cash at all, what he lacks is a project with investment potential, and Baidu's estimated cash flow is also a little tight.

Anyway, I couldn't sleep, so I got up and got barefoot, came to the window, opened the curtains and looked out.

The same height, the same view, different mood, see completely two pictures.

Now Manhattan, Times Square, the Empire State Building, Wall Street and those skyscrapers no longer seem so far away to him, and even have a kind of overlooking mentality.

"It's so cool to have money!"

Standing in front of the window and enjoying the scenery outside for a while, Guan Qiu grinned and began to dress and wash.

Since coming to the United States, because I have focused all my energy on the crude oil and futures markets, I haven't taken a good look at the city, and even slept directly after the end of last night without having time to celebrate.

After washing and tidying up, go to the opposite room and knock on the door.

It took a minute for the door to open.

Pu Ruo wiped the toothpaste foam on the corner of his mouth with a towel and said, "Wait a minute." Then he turned around and went into the bathroom.

Guan Qiu went to the room and looked around.

In addition to all kinds of financial books in Pu Ruo's room, the bedside table is full of futures and stock candlestick charts and analysis tables, on the contrary, women's clothes, bags and cosmetics are basically invisible to her.

He often suspects that Pu Ruo must have been a man in his previous life, and he was also a career-oriented workaholic, but he accidentally reincarnated in the wrong child in this life.

After walking around the room, he didn't see any underwear like Little Nene and BRA, and then he sat on the bed and helped sort out the messy materials.

There was a "popping" sound in the bathroom. It is to pat the face after hydration, so that the skin can absorb it better.

Pu Ruo asked, "Did the school call you?"

"Texted me yesterday and told me to come over and sign up as soon as possible. As Guan Qiu spoke, he found that the corner of an A4 paper was clamped into a drawer, so he pulled the drawer with his hand.

Pu Ruo said, "Then when do you plan to go back?"

The business visa period for the two is three months, and there is still half a month before it expires.

"Uh...... Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Guan Qiu looked at the things in the drawer, his eyes almost didn't pop out, he couldn't imagine that Pu Ruo would use such a thing.

"That...... What about you?" said at the same time, Guan Qiu immediately closed the drawer. If Pu Ruo knew, I was afraid that he would not have killed him.

Pu Ruo came out and said as he walked, "I'll wait a few more days, there are still some finishing touches to be done." Also, have you figured out what to do with those funds?"

Guan Qiu was a thief, and said in a dry voice: "That...... No, do you have any good suggestions?"

Pu Ruo came over and said: "I propose to set up an investment company, which is more flexible from an investment perspective and capital operation." ”

Guan Qiu, who was originally a little absent-minded, heard Pu Ruo's words, thought about it and felt very reasonable.

In the previous life, so many potential companies in the world, such as Facebook, were just launched in February this year, Twitter was not officially listed until July 2006, and Apple's stock is now only more than $50 a share, and there is still a lot of room for growth.

There are many more such companies.

But soon U.S. real estate and bank stocks will plummet, and then it will be another feast of wealth.

Thinking of this, Guan Qiu was a little distracted for a while.

……

……

It was in a high-class hotel on Fifth Avenue that a celebration was held.

Before, Guan Qiu, the boss, only had the right to suggest but not the right to operate, and all affairs were decided by Pu Ruo, the main trader, so everyone also ignored Guan Qiu, the boss.

Now I have a new acquaintance.

Li Haoxuan, 34 years old, studied at the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University, and later went to the University of Pennsylvania for further study and graduated with a doctorate.

Xiong Jiawei, 32 years old, graduated from Columbia University with a doctorate in finance, and has worked in world-renowned investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.

Lu Fei, aged 30, is a Ph.D. graduate from an Ivy League university and has held important positions in a number of investment banks in China.

Yang Xin, 29 years old, graduated from Harvard Business School with a Ph.D., a financial genius;

Ye Tong, 27 years old, Ph.D. student in economics at Fudan University;

Zhuang Lin, 27 years old, graduated from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics with a master's degree;

After the official introduction, Guan Qiu's expression was like this: ┌(。 Д。 )┐

Sure enough, the people who can be recognized by a female president like Pu Ruo are not ordinary people.

Guan Qiu picked up his glass and said, "Thank you very much for your hard work during this time, and at the same time, cheers for the phased victory we have achieved!"

"Wow, cheers—"

"Hahaha......"

Then everyone began to feast.

In capitalist countries, as long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be eaten.

Guan Qiu spared no expense to find the best ingredients, such as matsutake truffles, special New York strip steaks, foie gras caviar, bluefin tuna, and chocolate cake with French Tahitian vanilla sauce.

Champagne is unbridled;

Top red wine is open casually;

Eat what you want, drink what you want, and drink as much as you want.

Nearly $200,000 is eaten in one meal.

But no one was distressed.

Guan Qiu will not feel distressed;

Pu Ruo will not feel distressed;

Li Haoxuan: They will not feel distressed;

What is a mere $200,000, there are still many orders in the futures market, and the hourly income is more than a little bit.

In fact, at 3 p.m. Eastern Time on November 3, after U.S. President Bushi and his wife Laura delivered a speech at the Reagan Center in Washington, international crude oil prices immediately rose again.

Money is like tap water, it can't stop it from flowing into your pocket.

After eating, it is natural to be rewarded for meritorious deeds.

But before that, Park Ruo said the intention of Guan Qiu's proposal to set up an investment company, and then asked everyone if they would like to join?

Li Haoxuan was the first to agree.

Later, Xiong Jiawei, Lu Fei and others also nodded in agreement.

Taking advantage of the wine, everyone began to discuss the matter of investing in the company.

After listening to Pu Ruo say that this speculation in crude oil futures was made by Guan Qiu, and after many miraculous strokes, everyone unanimously chose him as the strategic general adviser of the investment company, responsible for the company's future strategic investment.

Of course, he is still the boss.

Park Ruo is naturally the CEO.

Li Haoxuan and Xiong Jiawei are senior vice presidents;

The rest also held important positions.

The prototype of a top-level investment team is preliminary.

The rest of the matter will need to be discussed in detail when we return home, but one thing is certain, the United States needs to set up a temporary command center.

After discussion, Xiong Jiawei was in charge of the affairs here.

After that, Guan Qiu sent everyone's commission in advance.

Let's not talk about how much it is, everyone is smiling anyway.

As long as you squander it, it is enough to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life.

Among them, Zhuang Lin was the most excited.

Among the six people this time, except for her, the other five people are relatively wealthy, and they can be calm in the face of this wealth, but she is different, her family is very ordinary, so everything is worked out by herself.

Before coming to the United States, her monthly salary was just 6,000 yuan. Although it is much better than many of its peers, it is not outstanding.

It's hard to describe the excitement of suddenly achieving financial freedom.

Glancing at the young boss by the window, Zhuang Lin's eyes were more shocked than grateful.

Except for these people in the house, no one would know that this young man, who is only 20 years old, has achieved a leap forward in his wealth and entered the top 200 of the global Forbes rich list.

……

After celebrating until four o'clock in the afternoon, Pu Ruo, Xiong Jiawei, Lu Fei and Ye Tong went to the futures bank.

Li Haoxuan and Yang Xin drank too much wine and went back to the hotel to sleep.

Guan Qiu and Zhuang Lin are going back to China together tomorrow, so they will go shopping together while they still have time.

There are many famous shopping malls in New York, such as Rockefeller Center, Fifth Avenue, Sixth Avenue, Seventh Avenue, Sixteenth Street, and many more.

The two took the hotel car to Rockefeller Center to buy some souvenirs, and then went to Seventh Avenue.

Seventh Avenue is home to high-end men's and women's brands, bags and jewelry, and some of the most famous designers. Of course, the prices are also very expensive.

However, Guan Qiu and the two didn't ask the price, and they bought it because they thought it looked good.

Halfway through, Guan Qiu called the female student translator over. The two of them shopped separately, and it was a bit troublesome to always call Zhuang Lin to translate.

When the female student came over, Guan Qiu and Zhuang Lin carried more than a dozen big bags in their hands, just to help share them.

The female international student looked at Guan Qiu's hundreds of thousands of dollars in goods, and bought them without blinking, and even two Prada limited edition handbags worth 12,000 US dollars did not hesitate to buy them, and her saliva was full of envy.

began to wonder in my heart, how to get this "local tyrant" to send her a handbag......
