Chapter 31: Investing Genius Fat David
David Ford is one of the many venture capital companies in Dune Road, the general manager of Duleia Capital, and an intermediate manager of KPCB.
After leaving KPCB, he met a star and several rich people at a party in Hollywood.
David Ford, who is well versed in serving the rich, has won the appreciation of this big star and those rich people through his own efforts.
It just so happens that these big stars and rich people want to enter the venture capital world and become angel investors.
David Ford's original work experience at KPCB has brought him many bonus points.
Several wealthy people and the big star invested nearly 100 million US dollars and registered Dulaiya Capital.
The name "Dulia" is a transliteration of "good vision" in Italian.
Because among the richest people, the three who contributed the most are all immigrants from Italy.
Dulaiya Capital has been established for two years now.
For two years, it has been lukewarm.
I didn't make much money, but I didn't lose much money either.
However, the financial market is somewhat turbulent this year, and the two largest countries in the world are fighting a "sweater war".
Many markets around the world have been affected and business has become difficult to do.
Unfortunately, several angel investments invested by Dulaiya Capital have suffered losses and even went bankrupt.
This is why David Ford tightens money, recovers funds, and cuts off those investments that are not promising.
Although I have not achieved any results, I have been independent and become the general manager for two years.
Because of this experience, and the fact that he once resigned from KPCB, I have seen Alftley "degenerate" to the point of becoming the general manager of a small broken company like myself.
David Ford couldn't help but have a natural sense of superiority.
No matter how powerful you are, you are not on the same platform as me, and you are even one position behind me.
What's so great?!
Today I met Alvertley on the road, and he deliberately came up to express his feelings.
I just didn't expect that Alvertley was like this and still felt so "feeling good at self-esteem".
David Ford's originally happy mood gradually disappeared, and the smile on his face stopped.
Looking at Alvertley's polite and gentle look.
David Ford couldn't help laughing and said, "It's indeed a good company! But I heard that your boss is only 20 years old. Maybe he is the son of a rich family from a wealthy family. He took a sum of money and came out!"
"Young, I don't know the world is so high, I think Valentine, Locke, Duer and Kosla are so easy to be accused of!"
"Haha... We have worked on Dune Road for so many years. There are so many people who have seen such endings!"
"Dear Al, do you really think such a company can stay?!"
Alvertley looked strange when he heard the fat man's ridicule.
Say Abel is young?
This is true. According to Alvertley, his boss is only 20 years old this year and is even studying in college.
Moreover, compared with the four legendary giants in the venture capital industry mentioned by Fatty, they are indeed not as good as their qualifications and assets now.
However, in the foreign exchange market and Blue Star’s future, the ability shown is at least a combination of Buffett and Soros.
If there are only these two successful investments in the future, it may be just pure good luck.
But in a lifetime, as long as the average person has such good luck twice, he can live his life freely.
Intuitively, Alvertley believes that his boss is more than just good luck.
He is gentle by nature and doesn't want to argue with the fat man. He smiles and doesn't speak, and is about to leave.
Unexpectedly, the fat man never left him, with a mocking smile on his face and continued:
"Haha...you don't know yet? The non-performing assets in your investment company are right, that startup called a future."
"It was me who decided to sell it to you that young boss who didn't know how to be tall and rich!"
"In total, we invested a total of US$1.8 million, but in the end we sold US$2 million!"
"This is called a commercial stop loss!"
"I'm sorry for your company, I spent 2 million US dollars to buy a fraud company built by a fraudster! Hahahaha!"
Speaking of his proud work, David Ford laughed.
Amid laughter, Alvertley's face became strange.
An expression that he wanted to laugh but was holding back.
"That..." He couldn't help but say, "I'm sorry, I'll interrupt... Are you saying that you really sold Blue Star to your boss in the future?"
"certainly!"
David Ford was proud.
Among the four investments this year, three of them have lost money, but fortunately, although the last investment only earned 200,000 US dollars.
But finally, I didn't lose money.
If you don’t lose, you’re making a profit.
And he sold it to Alvertley's company he hated, and David Ford felt that he was worthy of his happiness!
Go back to hold a party in the evening.
He thought so.
He originally thought Alfretley would be angry and leave.
However, he did not expect that Alvertley, who had always been gentle and polite and elegant and calm, got a definite answer from himself.
Finally, I couldn't help but laughed out loud there.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Haha! David Carter? Or David Fuji? No matter what, it's David."
"I remember, you were the David from the past when you were in KPCB!"
"That's right!" David Ford was angry.
What does this mean?
Did this guy only recognize himself until now? He was just pretending to be hypocritical?
"Thank u!"
Just when David Ford was so angry that he wanted to get angry.
But Alvertley suddenly became serious, with a deep gratitude on his face, and said thank you.
David Ford was confused.
Alvertley patted his shoulder and chuckled:
"David, I have to say that you are such an investment genius! Congratulations, your shareholders and your directors will applaud you!"
"Of course!" David Ford was confident.
"Okay, it's getting late. David Fozhi or Carter? I'm going home, my wife and my children are waiting for me to have supper!"
"Today's breeze in California is good, it's better for a glass of champagne! I think you should go home and have a glass of champagne with your family."
"goodbye!"
With a chuckling, while sighing that his boss didn't know whether he had a good vision or a good luck, Alvertley got on his BMW M4 coupe.
"I'm David Ford! Bitches!"
When the BMW M4 left, David Ford couldn't figure out why Alfretley was laughing, and then he realized and couldn't help but curse.
After scolding, he was also proud.
Be proud of your correct investment operations.
