Chapter 232: Independence Funds Make You Independent

This time I came to Niu Yue to hold a concert, which was the first time Jiang Changsheng came to the United States since his rebirth, and he took this opportunity to learn about the fund management on the spot.

So after getting off the plane, Jiang Changsheng said goodbye to Tian Xingguo and others, and took his bodyguards to get into Zheng Guoen's car.

After getting in the car, Adrian Cheng asked, "Mr. Jiang, do you want to go to the hotel to rest first and then go to the company tomorrow?" ”

Jiang Changsheng shook his head: "No, go directly to the company, I only stayed in the button appointment for five days." ”

Seeing that Zheng Guoen and Zhou Wenqiong were a little nervous, Jiang Changsheng said: "Everyone is their own people, Brother Guoen, you are Sister Ling's cousin, Sister Qiong, you are Sissi's cousin, don't be too angry."

I went to the company this time just to see, not to check the accounts. ”

Zheng Shuangling managed the accounts very well, Jiang Changsheng didn't ask too much, and he would only ask about a large investment.

Zhou Wenqiong smiled and said, "After all, you are our big boss, and you should be respectful." ”

Zheng Guoen still didn't smile when he heard this, but nodded solemnly.

Jiang Changsheng didn't care, he heard Zheng Shuangling say that Zheng Guoen studied mathematical finance, and he was very rigorous.

So Jiang Changsheng didn't care about him, and chatted with Zhou Wenqiong all the way.

The common denominator between the two is Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei, and the topics they talk about are all about them, especially Liu Xiaoli.

Zhou Wenqiong was full of envy for Liu Xiaoli between her words.

After some conversation, Zhou Wenqiong felt that Liu Xiaoli had not lied to herself, Jiang Changsheng was indeed a good talker, and the relationship was a lot closer.

After chatting, she sighed: "Life is really ups and downs, my family has always thought that I was very happy and better than Sister Xiaoli."

At that time, Sister Xiaoli was divorced and took Sissi in the United States, and everyone was very worried.

Now that I've met Ling, their mother and daughter have become big stars.

On the contrary, I am divorced and now I am alone. ”

When it comes to Zhou Wenqiong's privacy, Jiang Changsheng has no desire to explore, but only comforts politely: "Sister Qiong, you are also naturally beautiful, if you feel lonely, you can find another companion at any time." ”

Zhou Wenqiong covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Don't look for it, I can see it, women still have to rely on themselves, and having money and career is the most important thing." ”

Jiang Changsheng made a joke: "That's definitely right, it's better to be a rich woman, as long as you have enough money, the handsome guy will load a car." ”

Zhou Wenqiong gave Jiang Changsheng a good-looking white eye: "I'm not a casual person, and I won't support a handsome guy if I have money." ”

Although Zhou Wenqiong has been an actor and has lived in the United States for several years, she still has the traditional side of Chinese women in her bones.

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Then you are not as good as Qianqian in this regard, she is a little rich woman, shouting all day long to support me." ”

Zhou Wenqiong smiled waves, she glanced at Jiang Changsheng, and said, "If it's you, I can do it too." ”

"Then you go to the queue first, there are too many women who want to support me."

The two laughed, and even the always serious Zheng Guoen, the corners of his mouth were bent.

Talking and laughing, the three of them came to an office building on Huaer Street.

The office of the fund company is located on the 15th floor, covering an area of about 300 square meters, and the number of employees is currently 27 people, mainly from the United States.

When Jiang Changsheng walked into the company, he saw a huge logo wall with the English word "independence" on it.

Jiang Changsheng's special fund is called an independent fund, and the name was specially chosen by Jiang Changsheng.

Zheng Shuangling asked Jiang Changsheng why he chose the name Independence, and Jiang Changsheng's original words were: "I hope that the people of the United States can be more independent, especially many states with ideas, to be brave and truly independent." ”

Zheng Shuangling smiled happily after hearing this, so the name of the fund was decided.

After Jiang Changsheng entered the company, Adrian Cheng directly convened a meeting of employees to report to Jiang Changsheng on the current operation of the independent fund.

The current capital of the independent fund has reached 600 million yuan, mainly from Jiang Changsheng's records and income in recent years, as well as the investments made with these incomes.

Under Jiang Changsheng's guidance, the investment returns of the independent fund are very high, and the highest return investment is NetEase's stock.

After the resumption of trading of NetEase's stock a few years ago, the stock price rose from less than 1 meter yuan to more than 60 meter yuan.

The increase is much lower than in previous lives.

Mainly because Tianya Network is now the overlord of the domestic Internet, suppressing the development of NetEase in the game area, so NetEase's stock price performance is not as good as in the previous life.

Even so, an investment has risen dozens of times, and the returns are amazing.

It's just that NetEase's current market value is not very large, and the investment amount is limited, so the absolute income earned is not particularly large.

The size of the standalone fund is now around $2.5 billion.

In addition to capital, there is some leverage, as well as some private placement.

In 2005, the scale of this fund was not small.

Adrian Cheng turned a page of PPT and introduced: "The company currently has two major businesses, the first is the foreign investment of funds, involving ......"

The independent fund has already participated in angel rounds of investment in companies such as Facebook and YouTube, and the development situation is very good.

Jiang Changsheng did not interject, and quietly listened to Adrian Zheng's introduction, "The second business is the operation and purchase of copyrights......"

Because Jiang Changsheng's songs and copyrights are involved, this piece is also handed over to an independent fund to take care of.

Therefore, the company recruited a copyright management team of 5 people, who were not only responsible for the copyright under Jiang Changsheng's name, but also carried out copyright investment and operation externally, and purchased a lot of copyrights and IP.

At present, the company has purchased more than 30 copyrights of various types, and to Jiang Changsheng's surprise, they include Marvel's Iron Man and Wolverine.

At present, Hollywood's superhero movies have not yet risen completely, only Sony's Spider-Man has achieved good results, and the rest of the movies, such as the Hulk, are average at the box office.

Therefore, the current price of Marvel's copyright is not high, and many companies do not pay attention to it, and Marvel itself has left the copyright outside and made a mess.

Although Jiang Changsheng was surprised, he didn't say anything, and after listening to the report of the meeting, he only made two summaries.

First, gradually reduce investment in real estate assets, and in two years the subprime mortgage crisis is coming, and the housing in the United States and related stocks and bonds will collapse.

Second, increase the operation of copyright and IP, and set up a film and television investment department.

Although Jiang Changsheng, an independent fund, did not have specific management, the general strategic direction was formulated by him, and Zheng Guoen and others were used to it.

Hearing Jiang Changsheng's words, no one refuted them.

The next ten years will be a golden period for Hollywood industrial films to sweep the world, and investing in film and television works at this time is definitely profitable, and Jiang Changsheng still has a golden finger.

After the meeting, Jiang Changsheng and Adrian Cheng chatted alone for a long time, mainly about film investment, Jiang Changsheng plans to invest in a large cinema chain in Mi Guo in the future and invest in Netflix.

Jiang Changsheng is not interested in starring in Hollywood movies for the time being, but it is still possible to be a capital boss behind the scenes in Hollywood.

After chatting about the fund company, Jiang Changsheng put all his energy into the concert.

Two days later, Jiang Changsheng was able to enter the Madison Square Garden rehearsal, which was already the result of Warner's best efforts and Jiang Changsheng's fame and coffee position.

Madison Square Garden hosts a variety of events and shows each year, and as the home of the Knicks, the stadium is always full.

On the day of the rehearsal, Jiang Changsheng saw an acquaintance.

Dong Qing, the host of Sheep TV, this year is the first time she has hosted the Spring Festival Gala and became famous.

In the next few years, her development got better and better, and gradually became one of the pillars of the female host of Sheep TV.

Jiang Changsheng met her because of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

"Teacher Dong Qing, Yang Shi is so generous, he sent you over?"

Dong Qing smiled gently, this woman is in her thirties, she is the most familiar age, although she is not very good-looking, but she has the temperament of a lady.

She said: "Taili attaches great importance to the reports and records of your overseas concerts, and many people want to come, and I am also stained with the light of Mr. Jiang before I can go abroad for business." ”

The official wants to praise Jiang Changsheng as a benchmark faΓ§ade, but it is not for fun.

Jiang Changsheng's concert, Yangshi has sent people to follow it, on the one hand, to report relevant news, and on the other hand, it will be made into a documentary for secondary publicity.

It's just that when I was in China before, the team of reporters who followed the shooting was not well-known, but now as soon as I arrived in the United States, Dong Qing came, highlighting a truth.

No way, in this era, everyone really yearns for the United States, and the name of the Lighthouse Country is not a joke.

The reason why Jiang Changsheng's concert can have such a high popularity in China is that in addition to his own popularity, it is also a key to attract a large number of foreigners to listen to the concert.

Sheep TV's reports and documentaries also focus on interviewing many foreign fans.

Regarding Jiang Changsheng's concert at Madison Square Garden this time, various tracking reports from domestic media are very different from the previous concerts of Rowan and Jacky Cheung.

The fundamental reason is that Jiang Changsheng held a concert in the United States, and most of the people who came to listen to the songs were from the United States, and the concerts of Rowan and Jacky Zhang were basically Chinese.

Jiang Changsheng chatted with Dong Qing for a few words, and then went to the rehearsal.

At Nexus's concert, the band, harmony and concert guests were all arranged by Warner, and Jiang Changsheng had to hurry up and get familiar with it.

Jiang Changsheng's guests at the Nexus concert were Linkin Park, Craig David and black female rapper Brandy Norwood, all of whom are singers under Warner Music.

There are few of these singers in Omi, who are not xd, and their private style is extremely chaotic, and Jiang Changsheng has no intention of communicating with them, so he politely says hello, which can be regarded as acquaintance.
