Chapter 2 Create Ramp Capital!
Zheng Wentong didn't care whether Jiang Nan would change jobs to work. For an investment company, administrative work was highly replaceable and he could recruit people at any time.
On the morning of the 4th, while having breakfast, Zheng Wentong took stock of what he had to do next, including setting up an office, renting a house and buying a car.
Zheng Wentong has only paid social security for one year and is currently not eligible to buy a house, even in the name of his company.
He contacted a young intermediary girl from Lianjia Real Estate, named Xu Fen, who had two years of sales experience and was pretty and capable.
After comparison, he rejected Jin Mao Tower and World Financial Center, and rented a 218-square-meter finely decorated large-span office in Pufa Building, with a monthly rent of 60,000 yuan, plus property fees.
This office is located on the 15th floor of the Central District and can accommodate 27-54 workstations. Zheng Wentong paid half a year's rent and property fees at one time, and the building management reserved two parking spaces for Zheng Wentong.
Not bothering the two masters, the office was confirmed, and Zheng Wentong entrusted Xu Fen to help find a rental house.
Xu Fen had already closed one deal, so she naturally worked harder for her old customer Zheng Wentong. Finally, on her suggestion, she rented a 100-square-meter, two-bedroom, two-living-room, one-kitchen-one-bathroom, well-decorated house in the first phase of Lujiazui Garden.
This house is on the 16th floor of Building 10. It has two bedrooms facing south, a square shape and good lighting. The monthly rent is 12,800. Zheng Wentong settled on it on the spot.
Because he had to ask the cleaning lady to do the cleaning, Zheng Wentong decided to stay one more night in the peninsula and move in with his luggage tomorrow.
After the two contracts were signed, Xu Fen smiled brightly and treated Zheng Wentong very warmly. She said frankly that she could contact her at any time if she encountered any problems during her stay.
"There is one thing that I need to trouble Miss Xu."
Xu Fen looked at Zheng Wentong in confusion, you haven't moved in yet, what can you do to trouble the agency?
"If it's convenient, I'll have dinner with Miss Xu. I'd like to consult Miss Xu about buying a house."
Xu Fen looked at the time, it was now past six o'clock, it was dinner time.
She also wanted to maintain a relationship with a big customer like Zheng Wentong, so she said hello to the store manager so she didn't have to go back to the store to check in.
When she got downstairs, Xu Fen was in a bit of a dilemma. She was riding a pink electric donkey today and was wearing a white shirt and a blue suit skirt. It was not convenient to carry people.
"It's not convenient to take a taxi at this time. Do you mind giving me a ride?" Zheng Wentong shamelessly sat in the back of the car.
The two of them went to the Chinese restaurant on the third floor of the World Financial Center for dinner. The restaurant environment was average, but the food was good.
Zheng Wentong ordered mini vegetable buns with black truffle, two-color red wine foie gras, stir-fried crab noodles, vinegar-braised mandarin fish and the local dish recommended by the store, Xiangyou Shanshui.
Xu Fen estimated the price and immediately gave up the idea of a treat.
She thought to herself, I have never carried a male customer in the back seat, so I will make an exception today, so I can feel free to eat you.
"Miss Xu," Zheng Wentong just started, but Xu Fen interrupted.
"Brother Zheng, we have been dealing with each other all day today. Now we know each other. Please call me Xu Fen or Xiao Xu."
Although the age difference between the two is almost the same, Xu Fen, who has two years of sales experience, naturally calls out the title Brother Zheng. As a customer, he is either a brother or a sister, and he is sweet and sweet.
"Xu Fen, I have only paid social security in Puhai for one year. I am not married yet and have a registered permanent residence in other places. Is there any way I can buy a house in Puhai?"
Starting from this year, Puhai’s housing prices have ushered in a new round of skyrocketing. In just three years from 2014 to 2016, housing prices in Pujiang New District soared by 74.4%.
If Zheng Wentong buys a house in his own name, he will need social security for five years, and he will need to get married if he has a foreign registered permanent residence.
"Brother Zheng, if you really want to buy a house, there is a way. You can choose to buy a house through foreclosure. There is no purchase limit for the house under foreclosure in Puhai."
"However, the foreclosure housing market in Puhai is not yet mature and is a mixed bag. You can check real-time house auction information by logging on to Puhai Public Auction Network and Ali Auction."
"However, although the transaction price of a foreclosed house is lower than that of a second-hand house, there are also many risks. The identity of the original owner is at risk. There are debt disputes. The house cannot be transferred and the house cannot be vacated. The original purchase was in the name of the company and needs to be paid back.
Huge fees and so on.”
Lianjia Real Estate, where Xu Fen works, also handles some foreclosure transactions, but such clients are rare and may not close a single transaction in half a year.
Zheng Wentong now knew what he was thinking, "Then I'll try my best to choose a house where the original owner has no debt disputes, a clear title and can be transferred. I don't want a house bought in the name of a company. If there is one that suits me, help me keep an eye out."
"Brother Zheng, what type of houses are you mainly looking at? What is the approximate price range?"
"Prioritize old garden houses or large flats. In order to reduce the risk of transfer, try to choose a one-time payment, and the total price should be controlled within 50 million."
Buying a house with full payment will not affect starting a company. Anyway, the housing prices in Puhai can continue to rise. At worst, the house will be mortgaged.
When Xu Fen heard Zheng Wentong casually mentioning 50 million, her breathing became a little rapid, and she tried her best to calm down.
Because Xu Fen's store is located in the Lujiazui business district, she has met many wealthy people and took customers to see the multi-billion dollar mansions of Tomson Yipin and COFCO Seaview One.
But there has never been a client with such a clear goal as Zheng Wentong. As long as she can find a suitable house and ensure the safety of the transfer, this big deal is almost guaranteed.
After selling a 50 million mansion, the sales she created for the store exceeded 1 million. Her own monthly income exceeded 500,000, and she could buy a BMW 5 Series or Mercedes-Benz E-Class directly.
Of course, the bigger the client, the more picky they are about the quality of the house. There are very few old garden houses in the foreclosure houses in Puhai City, and one may not be sold every year.
She still helped Zheng Wentong pay more attention to the flat floor, but it is estimated that it will take at least half a year or even a year to close this order.
Xu Fen joked with Zheng Wentong, changed her name again, and sounded more affectionate, "Brother Tong, you paid hundreds of thousands in rent today, why haven't you bought a car yet?"
"I just returned to China to start a business, so I haven't had time to look at it yet. I'll go to the 4S store to pick up the car in two days. Compared to the Mercedes-Benz and BMW, I still think it's more comfortable to sit behind your little e-mule."
Xu Fen blushed and pretended not to understand, "Then there is an advantage for you to buy a car now. You can ask scalpers to help you get Puhai license plates. After New Year's Day, the DMV will have a new policy that the license plates can be separated when transferring the ownership of a second-hand car."
"Xu Fen, you are well aware of Puhai's policy changes. I believe you will become a top real estate agent."
"There, I saved some money and wanted to buy a car, but the inner ring road was restricted, so I was more concerned about the license plate."
After dinner, Xu Fen rode an electric donkey to take Zheng Wentong back to the hotel. Zheng Wentong asked Xu Fen to go with them to experience Peninsula's SPA services.
The Peninsula Hotel's spa is on the third floor, covering an area of 1,250 square meters. Because I was traveling with my female companion, they were arranged to have a spa in the same room.
Xu Fen chose skin awakening care, and Zheng Wentong chose body and foot massage at the same time.
After finishing the spa, Zheng Wentong and Xu Fen went to the spa center to play in the large swimming pool for more than half an hour.
"The happiness of you rich people is so simple and unpretentious. I have to keep a distance from you, otherwise it will be too easy to be knocked down by sugar-coated bullets."
"It's not a big deal to live in this kind of five-star hotel experience occasionally. When I just graduated, I lived in a single room and ate fast food like you."
Compared to the Jiang Nan I met yesterday, Xu Fen has a more likable personality.
Although there is an element of deliberately making good friends, he is more genuine, worldly and not utilitarian, and does not have the air of tea.
Zheng Wentong sat on the edge of the swimming pool and looked at the beautiful glass roof above the swimming pool.
"The river view suite I booked in the hotel has a jacuzzi which is very comfortable. Would you like to take a shower and change into a bathrobe?"
...
On the 5th, Zheng Wentong contacted the agent and completed the company registration. The name of his registered company is Slope Capital (China) Co., Ltd., and its English name is Slope Capital.
The registered address of Slope Capital is Room 1506, Pufa Building, No. 588 Pudong South Road, Pujiang New District, Puhai City, and a landline phone is installed in the office.
Zheng Wentong's current company is very small and he is a newcomer to capital, but his targets are Sequoia China, Hillhouse Group and Capital Today.
Slope Capital initially established an administrative department, a financial department, an investment department and a legal department. He contacted headhunters to help him find suitable candidates.
Zheng Wentong himself is in charge of the investment department, but what is most urgently needed is a head of the financial department.
At present, in the early stages of entrepreneurship, Slope Capital does not require senior management talents at the level of financial director, and ordinary financial directors are sufficient.
The company's nameplate has been hung at the door, and Zheng Wentong, who is in urgent need of manpower, plans to trick Jiang Nan over first.
He took a photo of the office and said, "This is the office I rented. If you change jobs, I will leave you a separate office."
"The salary is tentatively set at 11,000 as a base salary without liability, with performance bonuses, and a year-end bonus at the end of the year. Work is from 9 a.m. to 6 a.m., with weekends off."
After Zheng Wentong promised Jiang Nan that she would buy a coffee machine and an unlimited supply of coffee beans, she decisively resigned and came to Pufa Building to join Zheng Wentong.
After she arrived, she found out that she had been deceived. She was the only employee in the entire company, and Zheng Wentong let her do everything she had to do.
Even the coffee machine was bought by myself and had to be reimbursed with the invoice.
As the boss, Zheng Wentong began to draw a picture, "You are our employee No. 002 of Slope Capital and a veteran entrepreneur. When the company we invest in goes public -"
Jiang Nan's face was expressionless, "Mr. Zheng, the boss of my last company also promised me the same thing."
"Then what?"
"Then the company went bankrupt, so I changed jobs."
Zheng Wentong is very helpless. Nowadays, young people are so powerful that they often criticize their bosses.
He coughed and said, "A friendly reminder, your dressing style today does not look like an executive."
