Chapter 327: The Choice of the Person in Charge

Responsible for managing investments in Brazil?

Kate was stunned for a moment, her time as Tang Bao's personal assistant was not short, knowing that she might one day be released like her predecessor Nick, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Things were so sudden that Kate, who was stunned, forgot to respond.

Scold.

Looking at Kate, who was stunned, Tang Bao smiled understandingly, and did not urge, leaving the other party plenty of time to digest and think about this problem. After all, Tang Bao, the boss, is a very important opportunity to make a decision from Kate's point of view.

About five minutes later.

Kate's eyes returned to clarity, then became firm, and shook her head and said: "Boss, thank you for your trust, but I know very well that my ability is not enough to be the head of investment in a region." What's more, Brazil is not an ordinary country region, it has a significant position in the whole of South America. ”

"Oh?"

Tang Bao was surprised, he didn't expect Kate to make a decision in such a short time, instead of gladly accepting it, she firmly pushed out the opportunity to be sent to the door.

Brazil is rich in iron ore, oil and other resources, which will become more and more important in the future, and their value cannot be measured simply by money. Tang Bao in such an important resource production area to carry out the investment layout, naturally it is impossible for one or two investment projects to be satisfied, the later investment is not said to be so exaggerated, but it will certainly not be less. The importance of the position of investment manager in the region is self-evident.

Tang Bao believed that Kate was also very aware of the "gold content" of the position, but in this way, Kate actually endured the temptation and gave up.

"Are you sure?"

From Kate's determined eyes, Tang Bao had already received the answer, whether it was a real refusal rather than a false prevarication, but he still asked.

"Yes."

Kate nodded solemnly.

Let's be honest.

No one could have understood how hard it was to make such a decision, but when she said it, her whole body became relaxed.

"Why? Kate, I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I value investing in Brazil, and you may not know what you are rejecting today......"

"Nope. Boss, I understand very well. Soon after returning from Japan, the boss began to prepare for the investment study tour, and the first stop was Brazil. As long as you are not stupid, you know that the boss is optimistic about investment in Brazil. Kate replied, pausing slightly before adding, "As for why?" Maybe I know too much about the importance that my boss values Brazil, so I don't dare to accept it easily. I had just arrived in Brazil, but I had come to appreciate the complexity of the situation on the ground, and frankly, I didn't have the confidence to deal with it. Rather than reluctantly taking office and messing things up and leaving in disgrace, it is better to give up and work as a personal assistant with peace of mind. I think that as long as I stay by my boss's side, I will always have a chance when I have the ability. ”

"If you don't have the confidence to deal with the complex situation in Brazil alone, this is easy to do, I can match you with two deputies." Tang Bao said with a smile.

"Forget it."

Kate shook her head in reply. She is self-aware, and she feels that doing things by Tang Bao's side, although she is running around, busy late every day and even has no real holidays, she can learn a lot. What's more, the people and things she touches are the core of Tang Bao.

Sometimes, Kate even thought about being Tang Bao's personal assistant all the time......

"Oh, that's it. Since you don't want to stay in Brazil, I'm not reluctant. Tang Bao smiled, to be honest, he also knew that aside from Kate's identity as his personal assistant, he was not suitable to be responsible for investment in Brazil. He only made inquiries because he knew Kate well and was trustworthy. Of course, there is also the idea of exercising Kate.

But.

Since Kate explicitly refused, Tang Bao naturally would not force it. "Well, it looks like I'll have to find a suitable person to take over as soon as possible."

Thinking of this, Tang Bao couldn't help but have a headache. There are many elites in the global business world, and it is not difficult to find a competent person in charge of Brazil, but it is not as simple as you think. The selection of the head of investment in Brazil has to consider not only the question of ability, but also other aspects, well, loyalty.

After all.

Tang Bao can't stay in Brazil for a long time, and in the future, except for very important investment projects, it is unlikely that he will come over often, and they will all be handled by the person in charge. If it is not a person, the loss of money is secondary, and Tang Bao is worried that it will delay or even destroy his investment layout in Brazil.

So.

The choice of the head of investment in Brazil is particularly important!

"Ugh."

Tang Bao sighed, he didn't expect that after Kate explicitly refused, he would face such trouble.

"Boss. Who are you looking for in charge of the investment headache in Brazil? Looking at Tang Bao, who was frowning and sighing, he asked.

"Hmm."

Tang Bao smiled bitterly and nodded.

"The scale of Phoenix Investment Group and East West Bank is not small, can't they even find a suitable person in charge?" Kate wondered.

"Heh, Phoenix Investment Group and East West Bank are naturally elite. Both companies are engaged in finance, but I mainly invest in industry in Brazil, and as the saying goes, interlacing is like separating mountains, and I am really a little uneasy about selecting the person in charge from the two companies. Moreover, Phoenix Investment Group and East West Bank are both joint-stock companies, although they are not listed, but they have external shareholders, and the investment in Brazil is my private investment. While I'm happy to dig into my own corners, other shareholders aren't happy...... The shareholders of Phoenix Investment Group, Citigroup, Bear Stearns, Mitsubishi, and Mitsui, do not have many shares, but they are all keeping an eye on it, especially the Japanese consortium, and my investment layout in Brazil does not want to attract the attention of the other party. East West Bank also has outside shareholders, and the integration has not been successful until now. ”

along this line of thought.

Tang Bao's eyes suddenly lit up, and there were many companies under his control, Phoenix Investment Group, Phoenix Holdings, Phoenix Capital, East West Bank, East West Securities, Chinatown Investment Services Company, American Southern Company, Universal Pictures...... Phoenix Investment Group and East West Bank can't dig into the corner, but that doesn't mean that other companies can't.

Soon.

Tang Bao found a suitable target, Phoenix Holdings.

Well.

Phoenix Holdings was born out of the venture capital department of Phoenix Investment Group, and later Phoenix Investment Group was reorganized, and Tang Bao specially spun off this asset. Compared with other companies under Tang Bao, Phoenix Holdings has a low reputation and is unusually low-key, but its value cannot be ignored. The most precious thing is the 65% stake in Cisco. As long as Phoenix Holdings holds 65% of Cisco's equity, other investments will be all lost, even if they are all lost.

Of course. That's not to say that you get nothing but investing in Cisco. On the contrary, up to now, there are no less than 100 companies invested by Phoenix Holdings, many of which are some impressions in Tang Bao's memory, and the specific value has not been calculated, but Tang Bao has left an impression, and the development potential will definitely not be too bad.

So.

Tang Bao did not specifically evaluate the performance of Phoenix Holdings, but in his heart, it was clear that Capus and his partners were doing a very good job.

"Hmm. After the Japanese stock market crash, the people in this country are extremely shrewd and attach great importance to technology patents, I don't know how the acquisition of Kaps is progressing? Tang Bao muttered in a low voice. To tell the truth, he spent $10 billion to acquire technology patents for Capuz with a wave of his hand, but he had no confidence in his heart about how many results he could achieve.

No way.

Tang Bao, who has been reborn, knows the importance of technology patents, but the Japanese are not stupid.

"Ugh. Boss, you're really right, although many Japanese companies are in trouble due to the stock market crash, few are willing to sell their technology patents, even if they are useless. Cappus set up an office in Tokyo to prepare for a protracted war, and he himself had already returned to the United States. Kate reminded.

"Oh?"

Tang Bao was surprised. He doesn't care where Cappus is, as long as he completes the assigned task.

"Let's talk about the establishment of the Phoenix Holdings office in Tokyo. Back then, you were busy buying Universal Pictures, so I won't say much about it. ”

"Hmm."

Tang Bao nodded, there were so many things he needed to ask about every day, and the matter of Kapus setting up a small office naturally didn't need to alarm him.

……

"Capps is in the United States, and he is in the right place to recommend a suitable person to take over the investment business in Brazil. Oh, don't look at the small scale of Phoenix Holdings, with less than 100 employees, but each of them is an elite. I usually don't ask Phoenix Holdings, but I trust them. Seeing the surprise in Kate's eyes, Tang Bao explained with a smile.

"Oh."

Kate nodded understandingly.

Meantime.

This is also the first time she has heard Tang Bao evaluate Phoenix Holdings since she became Tang Bao's personal assistant. She and Phoenix Holdings both came from Phoenix Investment Group, but at that time she was in the equity investment department, which was a parallel department to the venture capital management department of Capuz, and even if they met, they did not have any common topics. Therefore, although she knows that it is not simple for Tang Bao to spin off the venture capital department to establish Phoenix Holdings, she does not have a deep understanding.

And after listening to Tang Bao's evaluation today, Kate realized that the status of Phoenix Holdings in Tang Bao's heart is not ordinarily high.

As Tang Bao's personal assistant, she will deal with various companies under Tang Bao, in the past, she paid the most attention to Phoenix Investment Group and East West Bank, and now, I am afraid that another Phoenix Holdings will be added. However, Phoenix Holdings' investment is fully operational, except when there is no money, it rarely contacts Tang Bao, and there are few opportunities to deal with it.

Well.

With a decision, Tang Bao did not delay, and immediately picked up the phone to contact Kaps.

"Hey, Kapus, I'm going to make some investments in Brazil, and if there's a person in charge, you can recommend one to come. Well, I can't stay here for long, so I've picked someone and let me come over. Tang Bao didn't talk nonsense, and commanded directly.

"Understood."

Cappus replied more simply.

When the goal was achieved, Tang Bao hung up the phone, and the call time was very short. Other things, Tang Bao believed that Capuz would take care of it, and he didn't bother to ask. (To be continued.) )
