When He Yuanjiang said these words, Ye Chen already understood in his heart that it was no longer possible to persuade him to cooperate with him.
Moreover, he also understands a truth, which is called 'a gentleman does not force others to do anything difficult'.
He didn't make any more efforts and said very seriously: "Professor He, I understand what you mean. I'm sorry, I was too rash."
He Yuanjiang hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I don't blame you, it's my own knot. Since I have made a promise to my late wife, I must abide by my promise and cannot break my promise on this issue, so don't blame me again."
Ye Chen hurriedly said: "How is that possible? Professor He, I understand your decision 100%."
He Yuanjiang smiled happily, then remembered something, and said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, in fact, if you want to ensure an absolute advantage in front of the Ye family and the Su family, there is no need to go to such trouble and personally engage in ocean transportation."
Ye Chen asked curiously: "Professor He, what do you mean?"
He Yuanjiang said seriously: "I think you can go to the United States to find your grandpa. With him as your backing, you don't have to worry about the Su family or the Ye family, because even if the Su family and the Ye family are tied together, they are not your grandpa's."
opponent."
Ye Chen was stunned when he heard this, and blurted out: "Professor He, my grandpa...is he really that powerful?"
He Yuanjiang said seriously: "Strong? More than just strong! There are three wealthy families in the world, each of which is as rich as any country. One is the Rothschild family in Europe, the other is the Saudi royal family in the Middle East, and the other is the Chinese in the United States. Anjia
!”
After saying that, He Yuanjiang added: "Do you know how much wealth your mother has created for the An family alone?"
Ye Chen shook his head and sighed with shame: "To tell you the truth, Professor He, I don't know much about my grandpa's family. One is that I was too young back then. Although my mother took me to my grandpa's house several times, I didn't know much about my grandpa's family.
The public doesn’t know much about it, and another thing is that in my impression, the relationship between my mother and my grandfather doesn’t seem to be very good.”
"Yes." He Yuanjiang nodded and said: "When your mother and your father got together and wanted to return to China with him and marry into the Ye family, your grandpa was very dissatisfied because your grandpa didn't look down on Ye at all.
He feels that the Ye family is not worthy of being his in-laws."
As he said that, He Yuanjiang said seriously: "Actually, your grandpa was right. The Ye family was really just that way back then. Although it was very powerful at home, when you look at the world, it really doesn't make it to the forefront."
Ye Chen asked curiously: "What kind of industry does my grandpa's family do?"
He Yuanjiang sighed: "Your grandpa's family does almost everything. The An family should be involved in every industry you can think of. It's just that the An family is extremely low-key. They have thousands of companies around the world, but these companies
On the surface, it has nothing to do with the An family, and the An family rarely comes forward on their own, which is the same as the Rothschild family."
"The current property of the Rothschild family may not seem that large to outsiders, but the key point is that the Rothschild family owns more than one bank and holds a lot of shares in many banks in disguise."
"Owning a bank is equivalent to controlling finance, and now almost all companies need to use banks to raise funds and go public."
"So, a big family like this will naturally invest in many start-ups and listed companies through a large number of venture capital funds and stock funds. You can see almost all of the Fortune 500 companies in Europe and the United States now include Rothschilds.
It’s just that their shareholding structure is designed to be very secretive and subtle, and outsiders can’t even see it.”
Speaking of this, He Yuanjiang said with admiration: "The An family's operating route is similar to that of the Rothschild family. Therefore, your grandfather may not even know how much money he has, and I have no way of knowing.
"
"However, I know that the size of the entire capital pool of the venture capital fund your mother established in Silicon Valley exceeded 10 billion US dollars thirty years ago."
"Other funds want to raise so much money, but they have to get financing from many wealthy people and even retail investors. But all the funds your mother raised back then were all provided by Anjia herself!"
"Furthermore, I believe most people have heard of the development of Silicon Valley over the years. A large number of Fortune 500 companies were born here, and a large number of top IT tycoons were also born here."
"Google, Apple, Yahoo, Cisco, Oracle, Tesla and other top high-tech companies all came out of Silicon Valley step by step."
"Today, their market value has increased by tens of thousands of times, and the room for growth is extremely huge!"
"Any investor, if he had bought Apple stock twenty years ago, his current income would be more than three hundred and nearly four hundred times."
"But did you know that your mother invested in Apple with the venture capital fund she established before you were born?"
"At that time, Jobs treated her as a guest, and when Apple's market value was only a few billion dollars, she used hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange for 10% of Apple's shares!"
"Nowadays, Apple's market value is more than 2 trillion U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to more than 15 trillion yuan!"
"The 10% of the shares your mother invested back then, after rounds of dilution and reduction, should still be around 6% now!"
"How much does it cost in RMB? It's almost 900 billion!"
"But your mother not only invested in Steve Jobs' Apple, she also invested in her junior student at Stanford, Larry Page."
"Larry Page is the founder of Google. Google Search, Google Maps, Android mobile phone system, and the famous intelligent Go robot AlphaGo some time ago are all products of this company."
"The market value of this company now exceeds one trillion US dollars, and your mother's venture capital fund holds more than 10% of the company's shares!"
"So, your mother's income from investing in these two companies alone has exceeded the total assets of the Ye family. If all the investment income of your mother's venture capital fund that year is included, the Su family and the Ye family plus
I'm afraid they are no match for you, let alone the entire An family's assets."
When Ye Chen heard this, he was stunned!
Many people know or have heard of the miracle of Silicon Valley back then, and Ye Chen is no exception.
Countless high-tech enterprises have been born here. There are countless companies with a market value of more than 10 billion US dollars, several with a market value of more than 100 billion, and even two or three with a market value of more than 1 trillion.
Back then, anyone who could take money to invest in Silicon Valley, close their eyes and invest casually, would be able to invest in a lot of companies with unlimited potential.
The cool thing about investing is that the potential for growth is unimaginable.
That year, Japan's Masayoshi Son invested US$20 million in Alibaba and made a full US$50 billion;
The South African Newspaper Group in South Africa invested more than 30 million US dollars in Tencent Group, making a total profit of 130 billion US dollars!
This is the charm of investment. If you seize a potential stock, you can realize thousands of times of net profit.
These are classic investment cases that are familiar to the Chinese people.
But Ye Chen really didn't expect that his gentle, virtuous, knowledgeable and courteous mother would have such a glorious investment history!
