Outside an ordinary club in the western suburbs of Beihai, there are many low-end cars such as Alto, Santana, and Polo parked. Chen Hao's Audi is so eye-catching among these cars.
In China, wealth is a symbol of class and status, and luxury cars are the favorites of the rich.
But today, when the giants in the financial circles of Beihai and even Huaxia quietly changed into ordinary cars and showed up in suits worth three to five hundred yuan, Chen Hao couldn't help but be shocked.
Two blond foreigners stood in the center of the club and bowed to the crowd in fluent Chinese. The invited wealthy people responded respectfully. These influential figures in the Chinese financial circle had become reserved at this moment, not even greetings.
All with some caution.
This atmosphere also infected Chen Hao. He glanced at Shi Yuan gratefully. He even felt that it was a great honor for Shi Yuan to give him the precious invitation.
Il and Gershon, the actual heads of Bacon Capital, both graduated from the finance department of the world's most famous University of Chicago. They started from scratch and created a financial empire worth tens of billions of dollars, and are in charge of hundreds of billions of escrow funds.
.In the financial industry, Il and Gershon are omnipotent myths. They have created countless classic venture capital cases, and they are the investors that countless entrepreneurs around the world dream of.
In the hall, there are several long tables covered with snow-white tablecloths, with Western-style desserts and various drinks.
Il and Gashen were holding wine glasses and chatting casually with a group of rich people. Their computer-like brains were running, capturing every piece of information that was useful to them.
Regardless of how arrogant these rich Chinese people are on weekdays, in front of Il and Gashen, they are slaves of capital. They seize the rare conversation time, work hard to make others appreciate themselves, and can transfuse a lot of blood for the company.
Chen Hao had been standing aside and did not go up to talk. He vaguely felt that this meeting had some connection with Shi Yuan.
Yi Er came over with a wine glass. He touched Chen Hao politely and greeted Chen Hao in fluent Chinese, and the conversation began.
Throughout the conversation, Chen Hao felt at a loss.
That's right, I'm just at a loss.
Chen Hao has been in the shopping mall for many years and has fought countless fierce battles. However, in front of a capital tycoon like Yi Er, he feels as helpless as a naked baby.
The other party thinks quickly and asks questions quickly, leaving you no time to breathe.
In just ten minutes of conversation, Chen Hao seemed to have gone through an interrogation and was exhausted.
"Chen!" Yi Er patted Chen Hao on the shoulder and said, "I hope we have a chance to cooperate!"
As soon as these words came out, many people immediately cast envious glances.
Chen Hao's heart skipped a beat. If he could win the support of Beiken Capital, his Haoran Electrical Appliances would definitely be able to develop and grow. Will he still have to rely on others by then?
"Mr. Il, it's a pleasure to meet you. I hope we can have opportunities to cooperate in the future."
Yi Er's blue eyes blinked, and he smiled like an old fox: "Chen, you are very young and energetic, but you are not bold enough." Just when Chen Hao was in a daze, Yi Er continued to ask:
"Why don't you say now? For capital, the most important thing is now, not the future."
This was already a statement. Chen Hao's face flushed with excitement: "So - Mr. Yier, can I ask you to go next door to talk?"
"Okay! Please!" Yi Er led Chen Hao into the private room next door, and then closed the door, along with the envy and jealousy of others.
Ten minutes later, Chen Hao came out of the next room, his face calm as usual.
"Mr. Chen, what did Mr. Il talk about with you?"
"Mr. Chen, how did you get Mr. Il's favor?"
Facing the curious inquiry, Chen Hao smiled faintly and went out.
Shi Yuan was chatting with a young talent at this time. She said "sorry!" and then put down her wine glass and hurriedly followed him.
"Chen Hao, I really didn't misjudge you. Mr. Yier's admiration for people is absolutely unmistakable!" Shi Yuan praised.
If it were anyone else, Chen Hao would sneer at it, but when Shi Yuan said this sentence, he felt very happy.
Yi Er admires Chen Hao and is willing to inject capital into Chen Hao's Haoran Electrical Appliances, but Yier's requirements are also very demanding. Chen Hao must introduce Beiken Capital into Changsheng Electrical Appliances and gradually guide Beiken Capital to control Changsheng Electrical Appliances.
Chen Hao refuted this, but Yier's words made all his worries and uneasiness dissipate: "Chen, in this world, capital is king, and whoever owns capital is the king. I know your relationship with Yan Changsheng, but
You should consider your own development direction, are you really willing to be a professional manager?"
One sentence ignited all Chen Hao's ambitions. He is already thirty-seven years old, and he must realize his dream as soon as possible. For Chen Hao, dreams are everything.
Facing Shi Yuan's inquiry, Chen Hao thought of a question.
Why did she give me that business card? Is all this a trick by Shi Yuan?
Impossible. Backkom Capital is a world-famous venture capital firm, and Shi Yuan probably doesn’t have such a big reputation to convince Il to play a double act with her.
Indeed, just as a millionaire would not plot against a beggar, what reason does Chen Hao have to believe that the boss of Backkom Capital, which controls hundreds of billions of dollars, would plot against him? What does he have that is worthy of being plotted against?
However, testing is always necessary.
"Miss Shi, isn't this what you expected?" Chen Hao stopped at the moment he spoke. His eyes were like highly scanning radars, trying to capture every subtle expression on Shi Yuan's face.
To his disappointment, Shi Yuan was at a loss and looked stunned.
It seems that Shi Yuan doesn't know that she can get rid of her excess, and it is not easy to introduce Beiken Capital. Chen Hao thought over and over again and briefly described Il's conditions.
Shi Yuan's beautiful big eyes were sparkling. She looked at Chen Hao thoughtfully and said, "What do you think?"
Chen Hao took a deep breath, but his words still showed a kind of caution: "Ms. Shi, thank you for giving me this precious invitation. I have seen that a door belonging to us is opening, but I can't shake it.
Yan Changsheng’s status.”
In Changsheng Electric, as the second largest shareholder, the company's general manager, and Yan Changsheng's close partner, Chen Hao could only stand behind Yan Changsheng and smile.
Facing this comrade and boss, Chen Hao didn't have much confidence that he could defeat him. He couldn't even find a reason to convince Yan Changsheng.
Changsheng Electric's business is currently booming, and its stock price is rising all the way. Under such a good situation, why does Yan Changsheng take the risk to introduce external capital and dilute its own interests?
Every manager knows that external capital is a double-edged sword. In the cruel capital market, founders are driven out of the company they worked so hard to build by external capital and happen every day.
"Don't you have other colleagues in your company? You can do their work!" Shi Yuan offered advice.
Chen Hao nodded and shook his head.
The reason for nodding is that what Shi Yuan said makes sense. If she adds the other three directors, her share of the stock reaches 27%, and if she can introduce Bacon Capital, she will have a numerical advantage.
Becoming a major shareholder. The difficulty lies in convincing the other three directors.
Zhao Jun, Fu Deyou, and Yang Lingbo, these three directors are three fortresses that must be conquered.
Shi Yuan raised her eyes, looked at the sky above her head, and suddenly asked: "Chen Hao, have you ever thought that this may be a test for Il."
A flash of light flashed across Chen Hao's eyes, and he suddenly realized: a test, yes, it is a test.
Just like he tested Shi Yuan, Backkom Capital also needs to find a trustworthy manager for its funds. If it cannot even do this, subsequent investment and cooperation will be out of the question.
"None of these three directors are Yan Changsheng's old subordinates. They also have differences with Yan Changsheng on some views. I can give it a try."
Shi Yuan blinked her beautiful eyelashes and seemed to agree with Chen Hao's point of view. She added: "How confident are you about these three people?"
"I'm not even 10% sure, but I will try my best. I believe that no board of directors will not be tempted by the great prospects."
"Yes!" Shi Yuan clapped her hands and said, "Chen Hao, this enterprising spirit may be what Yi Er likes. I will help you from the side. I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
“A pleasure to work with!”
The two smiled at each other, each seeing the ambition in the other's eyes!
