Chapter 56 Black Swan Capital
Songjiang Wanda, Starbucks.
A pure white Porsche 918 drove from a distance and stopped by the roadside casually, attracting the attention of many people. Many pedestrians coming and going at the door of Starbucks couldn't help but take out their phones and take pictures.
Although the 918 is not as cool as the Lamborghini scissors door and not as elegant as the Butterfly door, even if it is simply lifted up, no one will ignore the 918's style.
A light gray summer trench coat and simple and clean hair, just look at this appearance. Those who don’t know what the idol of the boy group came out.
This person is either someone else, Gu Bai.
Several days have passed since the SSCC Racing Festival, and another weekend has ushered in. Gu Bai's night shadow was also sent back to the original factory for repair as quickly as possible by Lamborghini. As for Lu Jinghou's Ferrari 488, he only symbolically lost hundreds of thousands of yuan. Although Lu Jinghou was not convinced, he had no choice but to make any calculations. As for the shame in public, what's the matter with Gu Bai?
This Porsche 918 has also officially transferred from Principal Wang to his place. It is 1800W, and the same price as the Patek Philippe 6002G he wore. In general, it is not a profit or a loss. After all, the official price of Porsche 918 is also around 1500W. It is normal for him to appreciate a little in three years. It will start to fall in the next few years. However, this doesn't matter to Gu Bai. He can't wait a few years to buy it in order to save millions, right?
Gu Bai glanced around, looked at the pedestrian who seemed to have encountered some precious species and walked directly into Starbucks.
Today is the interview date he made an appointment with the headhunter company. Gu Bai didn’t know what such a person is wrong and had to talk about things in a cafe. Does it look a little higher-end? Even if this is true, then you should choose a more high-end cafe. What the hell is Starbucks?
However, Gu Bai was too lazy to complain too much, so he closed the car door and walked in directly.
The phone number was directly called to the staff of the headhunter company.
After some communication, I finally found them in a slightly cleaner corner.
The staff of the headhunting company recognized Gu Bai at a glance and quickly stood up: "Mr. Gu."
There were two people sitting next to him, one man and one woman. The man was about 40 years old. His suit was ironed without any wrinkles, and he looked meticulous. You could tell at a glance that he was a steady person.
As for women, they are probably in their 20s, and they are wearing a small black suit with a few pages of information in front of them, which looks like an urban strong woman.
Hearing the title of the headhunting company staff, the two of them quickly stood up and greeted each other, which caused a strange look from the so-called workplace elites who were carrying laptops to work in the office.
Gu Bai stretched out his hand, pressed down slightly, and signaled them to sit down.
As soon as he sat down, the staff of the headhunting company began to introduce: "Mr. Gu, these two are Mr. Shao Sheng and Ms. Xiao Qian."
Gu Bai nodded, sat down, and looked at the two of them calmly.
"Name: Xiao Qiang
Appearance: 92
Health: 94
Like: 30”
"Name: Shao Sheng
Appearance: 78
Physical constitution: 85
Like: 30”
The two have surprisingly consistent preference for themselves.
Gu Bai put the phone on the desktop and gently tapped the phone on the back of the phone with his fingertips.
"No need to say more nonsense, let me introduce myself first."
Of course, his introduction does not refer to his name, but his previous academic qualifications, work experience, or workplace advantages, etc.
When Gu Bai was looking at them, they were also looking at Gu Bai, and in the end, Xiao Qian spoke first.
"My name is Xiao Qian. I graduated from Harvard Business School and have an MBA degree. During my studies, I internship at Sequoia Capital and later served as an investment consultant and other important positions. I have a certain understanding of the current capital market. This time I returned to China is considered a capital dividend period in China, and I want to make a career."
Xiao Qian's eyes were calm, and his eyebrows were filled with confidence. After all, it was rare to reach this level like her age, but there were definitely not many people.
Gu Bai nodded, looked at Shao Sheng again, and signaled him to start introducing.
After listening to Xiao Qian's introduction, Shao Sheng's confidence has been worn out. After all, Xiao Qian's resume is indeed too beautiful, and one thing that forces him to accept is his age. Xiao Qian is still young and is still in the promotion period. There are endless possibilities in the future. This is also something that all bosses like. No boss will dislike an employee who is becoming an excellent employee all the time.
But I am different. I am over 40 years old and I am considered an old age in the workplace, which also means that he is already on a downward trend. Compared with the two, which is better or worse, a discerning person can tell at a glance.
However, he couldn't show his timidity because of this. He also sorted out his suit a little and began to introduce it seriously.
"My name is Shao Sheng, with a bachelor's degree. He has served as the risk control director of Yuanhui Capital and the deputy director of IDG Huaguo District Investment Department. He has had experience in independently operating hundreds of millions of projects."
A simple sentence can directly show your own strengths and weaknesses.
The disadvantage is that the degree is not high, which is also a common situation in that era. There are few particularly elite highly educated people. However, in the past ten years, high degrees have begun to become more popular. The advantages are also very simple, which is that they have enough work experience.
After the two of them finished speaking, they pushed the information they had prepared in front of them to Gu Bai.
Gu Bai just took a brief look, understood the general situation, and asked, "I believe that the headhunting company told you the specific situation when contacting you. My company has not been established yet, which is the so-called shell company, and it is not even a shell company. After all, the company has only been reviewed and registered today."
After saying that, he also took out the prepared documents from the side.
Xiao Qian and Shao Sheng took over the document, Black Swan Investment Co., Ltd. (Black Swan Capital), and then attracted the attention of the series of 0 on the document.
One hundred and ten million...500 million!
For a total of 500 million yuan, look at the following documents and instructions, and the actual amount paid is still there.
Seeing the expressions of the two, Gu Bai also smiled faintly.
What he wants is this effect, in order not to make them feel that their company is a playful nature and to be in an absolute advantage in this interview.
Don’t think that in this world, it’s normal for employees to choose employees.
"The company's current actual investment is 500 million yuan, and you should have seen this. I would like to ask, if you are given the opportunity to operate alone, which industries do you are more optimistic about in China?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Xiao Qian answering in an absolute tone: "Internet! Not only now, but in the next 20 years, the Internet industry will be a period of vigorous development!"
Gu Bai just nodded lightly, then looked at Shao Sheng again: "Where is Mr. Shao?"
"Ms. Xiao's opinion is the same, but there are differences. I am more optimistic about offline industries with Internet users as the core, such as the popular shared bicycle industry and takeaway delivery industry, which are now popular."
Gu Bai did not express any opinion on Shao Sheng's words.
To be precise, he didn't understand anything. It was just like relying on the experience of prophets in the next few years to see the level and investment direction of these two people. Now it seems that what both people say is more general, especially Xiao Qian, and the word radical can even be used.
"The last question, if two people can accept it, then the subsequent salary issue can be discussed."
When the two of them heard Gu Bai's words, they unconsciously sat upright, which was a little more upright than Gu Bai's attitude when he arrived. After all, Gu Bai had already shown their strength to them. An investment company with an initial investment of 500 million yuan will definitely attract the attention of most people.
Investment companies are different from commercial companies.
After all, he is not a company with instant profit return. Generally speaking, if you want to generate profits, you will have a long cycle, whether it is holding shares and paying dividends or cashing out on the market.
If you want to grow a company, you have to continuously inject capital into the company, introduce partners, or inject capital independently. Anyway, it is impossible to get a registered capital and then ate it for a lifetime.
Unless it is a famous shell company, but is Gu Bai's company like this? Obviously not. If so, why bother to interview them in one go?
"Mr. Gu, please ask."
Gu Bai said directly: "The problem is very simple. In the early and mid-term of the company, I will not give you any independent operation rights. You only need to follow up on the details of the specific project according to my wishes. In other words, in some aspects, you are just a tool person. Can you accept it?"
As soon as they finished speaking, both of them became silent.
Especially Xiao Qian, as soon as Gu Bai said this, she almost gave Gu Bai a fork in her heart.
She is very young, very motivated and ambitious.
This is also the reason why she returned to China. If she just planned to be a tool person, why did she return to China? No matter how large Gu Bai's company is, can it be bigger than Sequoia Capital, which is famous in the entire capital industry?
On the contrary, Shao Sheng, after listening to Gu Bai's words, just thought for a while and then accepted it.
He is old and no longer as enthusiastic as young people. The reason for resigning from IDG is that he cannot bear the high-intensity assessment tasks of their company. On the contrary, it will be more comfortable to be a tool person.
After thinking for less than two minutes, Shao Sheng gave an answer.
"Mr. Gu, I think I can accept this condition."
Shao Sheng’s consent can be said to be Gu Bai’s expectations. After all, from the resume, he does not have much impressive investment experience, but he has never made any big mistakes. He is a typical master of moderate success.
"The salary conditions are 1.2 times that of your previous job at IDG. Can you accept it?"
"Can."
Shao Sheng has already prepared to have a lower salary than before, and now he has increased by 20%. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?
Seeing Xiao Qian who had already started to pack up his documents, Gu Bai stood up and stretched out his right hand to Shao Sheng.
Shao Sheng also held Gu Bai's hand with a smile on his face.
"Welcome to join Black Swan Capital."
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your appreciation."
