A company with the nature of the Internet wants to get rid of the original financing path dependence. Finding a powerful CFO www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion is the only way to get around.

But the best CFO is not so easy to find. Because behind every CFO is not only the ability, but also the connections and background in the circle. For example, Sun Zhengyi behind Cai Chongxin, and Li Zekai behind Luo Shuohan. Even if Gu Cheng came out of nowhere and poached these awesome CFOs of the Erma family to his hands, if he couldn't organically combine it with the capital filming behind it, it would be self-defeating.

Now, Gu Cheng's Eslite Holdings is tied up by Sun Zhengyi in the financing channel, and if he wants to trick Sun Zhengyi into deregulating "exchanging the situation for the ground", he must not let Sun Zhengyi see another similar institution that seems to be very powerful, and has the same tendency to covet the future dominance of Eslite Holdings as he -

Just like when Gu Cheng took a stake in Tengyun, if he had a choice, he would definitely not want MIH to come in, but at that time, the choice was in Ma Teng's hands, so Ma Teng would definitely let MIH in. How Gu Cheng looks at Sun Zhengyi now is like how Ma Teng looked at him two years ago.

has the ability, has background connections, and looks harmless to humans and animals, and does not make people fearful. That's hard.

It is precisely because of this difficulty that from before the Chinese New Year until mid-March, Pan Jieying brushed off seven or eight unqualified applicants. In addition, Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying are too young, and most of the senior financial seniors in the industry are embarrassed to work under them, so this matter has been delayed until now.

On this day, Gu Cheng had just changed his mind in the post-production studio, and was guided by Guan Hu to finish cutting a film.

Pan Jieying called him in: "There is a person who is quite suitable, young and suitable for the atmosphere of our company." Solid education, beautiful experience, and easy to make people despise her true strength, come back and take a look, I booked a ticket for you. ”

"Plane tickets? You still use a ticket for such a small journey? Sister, you're not confused. Gu Cheng was puzzled for a while, and said in his heart that from Wuzhou to Qiantang, he would take a few hundred miles of high-speed roads in the province, and he would like Mao's air ticket.

"Ma Yu'er comes back, I'll book you a plane ticket, let's go to the capital together - that candidate is still at Goldman Sachs as the deputy director of the region, if you don't finalize her, she won't change jobs." ”

The situation is very common in the industry. Some high-level headhunting companies can contact people for a year and a half before poaching, and they can do it without leaking the slightest rumor.

But Gu Cheng soon found a problem: "You haven't left yet? Even if you have the intention, you can't catch up with us to negotiate with Sun Zhengyi, right?"

Pan Jieying immediately solved his doubts: "If you are interested, you can first help us contact Sun Zhengyi for decoupling in the name of an external investment consultant." ”

"Okay, I'll be right back. Gu Cheng said and hung up the phone.

Guan Hu, the assistant director of "Condor" on the side, couldn't understand what Gu Cheng was talking about, and he didn't want to inquire about the leader, he just ended up with an ear, it seemed that Gu Cheng was going to the capital in the near future, so he tentatively confirmed: "Director Gu, how did you go to the capital recently?"

Gu Cheng: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Guan Hu rummaged through the table for a while, and took out an invitation card pressed under the note folder.

"Oh, it's the last time I told you about the invitation letter from CCTV, Producer Zhang's industry exchange reception. Didn't you keep replying? Since you're going to the capital, why don't you drop by and go for yourself?"

Gu Cheng picked it up and glanced at it twice, only to remember that this matter was indeed Guan Hu who had asked him a week ago.

The Condor Heroes are still more than a month away. And this year, the schedule happened to be very unfortunate, and the big production of three Kim Yong dramas was released together. CCTV's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Wanwan's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" and Gu Cheng's "The Condor Heroes" are all gathered from the end of April to the beginning of May.

The three films, which happen to be state-owned, Taiwan-funded and private-owned, are also newly filmed after Document No. 16 of 02 was released and the investment threshold in the film and television industry was relaxed, and the forces of all parties are very representative.

So CCTV's Zhang Producer gathered some celebrities in Beijing who like to get involved in the entertainment industry, as well as some other producers who are filming martial arts films, nominally holding an industry exchange reception.

In fact, there must be some behind-the-scenes deals that coordinate the broadcast time with each other - in this case, the central media has never done less. It's nothing more than a combination of soft and hard, hoping that "our film will be broadcast from 8:20 to 10:20 in the evening, and if you know each other, move your film back, at least after 9 o'clock, and preferably at 10 o'clock until midnight."

Gu Cheng was ready to play haha and not participate in this drinking party at the beginning, so he pretended not to know about it, and everyone competed for ratings with real skills. If others want to sneak him, he Gu Cheng is not so easy to deal with.

But it was difficult to say this clearly, and Guan Hu didn't know his intentions, so he reminded him again.

"Okay, then I'll take care of it myself. Gu Cheng said as he put away the invitation.

"Help me say hello to Mr. Wang. Guan Hu nodded politely, indicating that he was still a person who cared about the old master, and he was righteous.

"That's a must. Gu Cheng agreed, and then he realized that Producer Zhang even wanted to invite Wang Zhongjun.

……

Two days later, Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying rushed to the capital in the dust, without any younger brothers, only a part-time driver's bodyguard.

My cousin and he talked about the CFO first, and then he would go to the reception of the CCTV Film and Television Department alone.

As soon as I got off the plane, I went straight to the headquarters of the Dangdang.com near the National Exhibition, and requisitioned Li Yanqing's conference room, and it didn't take long for the guests to come.

Now Gu Cheng has a few subsidiaries in the capital, and he doesn't like to go to cafes to talk about things like back then.

The person who came was a woman about 25 years old named Liu Qian. Clean, tall and crisp, but not pretty.

At a young age, there is a tendency for eye bags and nasolabial folds, and it will definitely be a neurasthenia in the future.

There is nothing to talk about about personal resume, Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying were already very familiar with each other before coming: this Liu Qian graduated from Beijing University with a bachelor's degree in computer science and a master's degree from Harvard University. But after graduating, he didn't do his old job as a computer, but went to Goldman Sachs to become an IT venture capital appraiser. Now I have only been working for two or three years, and I have climbed to the deputy director of Goldman Sachs Asia.

In the conference room, the female secretary made tea, Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying also got up to shake hands with each other, and their attitude was very easy-going: "Fortunately, Sister Liu looks down on our company and has a good vision." ”

Liu Qian smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Where, Gu is always a person who really does big things, and who in the circle doesn't want to cooperate deeply with Mr. Gu, but Mr. Gu's attitude towards venture capital in previous years was so cold, which made his peers very confused." If I had known that Mr. Gu would have loosened his mouth, I would have sent it to the door. ”

These words seem to be flattering, but the tone is a bit ridiculous and lesson-inspiring. It seems that I want to correct Gu Cheng's mistakes in facing the investment community.

While Liu Qian was talking, Gu Cheng was observing her expression. Then he and his cousin exchanged glances, and the siblings immediately understood each other's opinions.

This Liu Qian is not small.

Gu Cheng even felt that her self-confidence was even more arrogant than that of Li Yunxin, whom she had met in Seoul a month ago.

However, she does have arrogant capital, after all, Li Yunxin is just a vase of literature and art, a pure rich N generation. And although Liu Qian is also a rich second generation, she has her own skills.

Gu Cheng and his cousin took turns asking a few questions to confirm the other party's intentions and business capabilities. Liu Qian answered all the questions, and was very interested in joining Eslite Holdings, as long as Gu Cheng could trust her.

Gu Cheng decided to test the other party's mental endurance one last time.

"Sister Liu, I already believe in your business ability. But there's another question I'd like to confirm – what do you think is the core competency that led to your current position in just over two years after joining Goldman Sachs Asia?

Liu Qian's face suddenly fell a little. This question seems to be her reverse scale, and she never wants others to mention it.

Her nasolabial folds twitched slightly, and she forcibly suppressed her expression: "Of course, it depends on my own ability, I never take a penny from my family after work!"

Gu Cheng made a soothing cleanup: "I know, I didn't say money, don't get excited......"

"I didn't let the family say hello to the relationship!" Liu Qian's tone was not as eager as at the beginning, as if she was suppressing her emotions, but her tone was getting colder and colder.

"I didn't say anything about the relationship...... Gu Cheng felt innocent.

Who knows, the more calm Gu Cheng is, the more he looks like the old god knows everything, the more aggrieved Liu Qian becomes: "Don't you just want to emphasize that my father is Liu Chuanzhi!

"Come, have some tea. Gu Cheng stood up, walked around half of the conference table, patted Liu Qian's back, and picked up her teaglass, "Forget that I can't speak, let's ask from another angle." Sister Liu, do you know who Tengyun's current second largest shareholder is?"

"You. Liu Qian took a sip of tea, and seemed to find that she was a little anxious to prove herself just now, and at this moment she became like gold.

After all, he is only 25 years old, and even if he has been in a place like Goldman Sachs where the world's top people are gathered for two years, the city government is still not enough.

After Gu Cheng easily stabilized Liu Qian's emotions with a question, he continued to ask step by step: "Then where did I get the shares in the first place?"

Liu Qian: "Yingke Digital. ”

Gu Cheng: "Who is the boss of Yingke Digital?"

Liu Qian: "Li Zekai." ”

Gu Cheng: "When Li Zekai started his business, did he say that he didn't rely on his father?"

Liu Qian: "I said, no." ”

Gu Cheng: "Then how did he use Yingke's bubble shell to buy the real cash cows of Xiangjiang Telecom? Could it be that the major shareholders of Xiangjiang Telecom are all fools?"

Liu Qian seemed to know what Gu Cheng was going to say, but the corners of her mouth twitched, and she smiled slightly: "I relied on HSBC to loan him $13 billion." ”

Gu Cheng: "Why is HSBC willing to lend $13 billion to a person who only has an empty shell in his hands?"

Liu Qian: "He has more than one empty shell in his hands - Mr. Gu, you may not know that the loan contract between Li Zekai and HSBC was subject to effective conditions. He used the shares of Heung Kong Telecom, which he was about to buy in the future, as collateral, and asked HSBC for the loan, not the Yingke digital shell he was already holding!"

"I know what you mean—I'll ask another question. Gu Chengxu pressed Liu Qian and motioned her to be calm, "Do you think that if you change someone, you can do this thing that also makes sense theoretically." When you are penniless, take a valuable commodity that 'will only come to me in the future, and you don't need money', and ask HSBC to lend $13 billion, will HSBC lend it?"

"I won't ......" Liu Qian bit her lip and had to admit the result.
