Chapter 345: Taking Office in the Opposition (Two in One)
In the first month of 2003, Fang Zhuo's status in Shanghai stabilized.
He basically divided his time into three parts: work content at Yike and Sina, and research on the US subprime financial market with learning.
Perhaps the Li family wanted to show goodwill, or they could not resist the desire for profit, or both. After Li Xinyue called, the Li family not only met the fundraising requirements of the MIGA fund, but also introduced the funds of another chamber of commerce to jointly manage assets.
Considering the reputation of the MIGA fund in China and the time of the domestic Internet industry's listing boom, Fang Zhuo decided that the flow of these two funds would still enter the US real estate and related subprime debt markets as planned.
Although the United States will be a period of financial prosperity in the future, there are also many people who lose money in the bull market. Fang Zhuo believes that it is necessary to strengthen learning in this field so that he can identify the suggestions of fund personnel when necessary.
At the very least, even if he dies, he must know how to die.
In mid-January, Fan Xiong, the double-flowered red stick of the Anliang gang, gathered a group of brothers, lured a group of brothers, and coerced a group of brothers to challenge the unfair treatment.
There was not much blood and gore, only a little bit of tension.
In fact, when such a group of people could be organized, the foundation of the Li family had been shaken.
But shaking alone was not enough to overthrow the Li family. The old man of the Li family said that all the money of the brothers and their families would be paid in full, and there would be better treatment in the future.
In this way, the situation was barely suppressed, and the urgent need could be solved with money.
"Fund, transfer the money."
"According to the contract, the Li family's money has entered a closed period, and it will take at least three months to deliver. Withdrawing the capital now will cause serious losses. The fund must protect everyone's interests, otherwise it will not be able to make a bank and will not be enough to pay."
When Li Xinyue directly found Kong Yu, the head of MIGA Fund in New York, the latter rejected the delivery request for similar reasons.
Li Xinyue's threat of force did not change Kong Yu's color. He has always been bold, otherwise he would not have carried the oil barrel to find the boss at the beginning, not to mention that he already knew what An Liang was like.
Li Xinyue's threat of prosecution made Kong Yu even more indifferent. If he really went through the legal process, he would definitely lose the case, but now he was stuck in time.
The eldest daughter of the Li family called Fang Zhuo.
Fang Zhuo expressed his attitude in just one sentence: "I am not responsible for the specific operation of the fund. I will talk to Kong Yu. However, the fund is not formal after all."
Irregularity can make money, but it can also cause trouble.
When the old man of the Li family knew that the Li family even mortgaged their real estate to engage in finance, he was admitted to the hospital that night.
The father and daughter of the Li family tried to get money from the chamber of commerce and friends they were friends with, but the situation of the Anliang Chamber of Commerce was widely publicized by Shuanghua Honggun, and Tongwandou said openly and secretly that the money would not come back.
When people and money were not solid, the fate of the Li family was settled.
Fang Zhuo heard this process intermittently from Tongwandou's phone call, and knew that the Anliang Chamber of Commerce had changed its owner, and the Li family's retreat was exchanged for the preservation of a considerable part of its assets.
Some assets originally belonged to the Chamber of Commerce, and many of the Li family's assets were owned only under the influence of the Chamber of Commerce, but these would not be calculated too carefully.
In addition, Fang Zhuo informed Kong Yu that he could let MIGA Fund start to make profit delivery for the Li family. Sina's holdings would definitely not be moved, and NetEase and Sohu's holdings could just be below the holding line.
Both portals started at around $1, and in less than a year, the stock price rose eight or nine times.
The profit delivery of the fund must first retain 30% of the profit, and then charge a considerable management fee, and then divide it according to the initial investment ratio, and finally the money that the Li family can get.
This is a huge sum of money, and it still needs to deliver 35 million US dollars after deductions. The money invested by the Li family has more than tripled.
Kong Yu called his boss at night, hesitating about the delivery of the money.
Fang Zhuo heard what he meant and stopped his idea.
"Old Kong, we can't be so shady." He said earnestly, "MIGA Fund is a formal fund, how can you have such an idea?"
"Casinos are open for business, you are even more shady than casinos, I think you should go to Anliang Club."
"We are in the fund business, not the gang."
"Reputation is very important. MIGA Fund has appeared in the small turmoil of Anliang Club this time. Maybe there are other potential customers watching. This money must be paid, and other customers must be notified of our delivery."
MIGA Fund's current customers include Fang Zhuo himself, the Li family, two funds introduced by the Li family, and the funds raised by Shuanghua Honggun.
Today, the money of the Li family was embezzled. Not to mention the risk of losing everything, not to mention other people, just talk about Copper Pea Fan Xiong, how would he view this operation?
Will he worry about the money of him and his brothers?
It must be given, and it must be given quickly.
Fang Zhuo knew that Kong Yu was not unaware of this truth, but was dazzled by the money.
After that night, Fan Xiong, the current head of Anliang Chamber of Commerce, called and talked about some details of the process.
For example, the hospitalization of the old man of the Li family was fake, in order to delay time and gain sympathy. He may not only consider getting out of it unscathed, but also think about a desperate counterattack.
But in the end, the Li family wanted to do legitimate business, so they gave in.
Fang Zhuo patiently listened to this person's chat and said in person: "MIGA Fund has already begun to settle the money for the Li family. They won't make any more unnecessary moves for this matter, right?"
"Mr. Fang, don't worry." Fan Xiong was very confident.
Fang Zhuo knew that the Li family would not cause any trouble, but just gave him a shot of precaution.
Fan Xiong chatted for a few more sentences, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Fang, my son is about to graduate from college, can he go to your company?"
Fang Zhuo was surprised and a little confused about what he meant.
Fan Xiong didn't hear a response, and hurriedly said: "My son is very good in school. He is different from me. He is clean and has never been involved in gangs since he was a child. There is absolutely no stain."
Fang Zhuo: "..."
He asked strangely: "Why"
Fan Xiong said a little embarrassedly: "I think he has the ability, Mr. Fang is a capable person."
Fang Zhuo was a little emotional, and pondered for a moment: "What major is your son studying, and what is his personality like?"
"He studied Operations Management." Fan Xiong spit out two very standard English words, and I don't know if he has said this word many times with others.
"Operation management." Fang Zhuo thought for a few seconds.
Fan Xiong added: "He has a bit of a personality, a bit arrogant. He was not allowed to contact gangs since he was a child, but sometimes he was influenced by them."
"Arrogance is the simplest. Well, you can let him come, but I have a condition, he needs to change his nationality." Fang Zhuo said.
Fan Xiong said without hesitation: "Okay, thank you Mr. Fang."
"Don't call me Mr. Fang next time. Didn't you call me Mr. Fang before?" Fang Zhuo made another request. He had long been uncomfortable with this title.
Fan Xiong: "Okay, Mr. Fang."
He continued: "I asked him to fly to China this week. Should he contact Mr. Fang when he arrives?"
"Contact the secretary of my company." Fang Zhuo left Liu Yangyang's number to the other party.
The call with Fan Xiong of Anliang Chamber of Commerce ended. His arrangement for his son was really beyond Fang Zhuo's expectations. He also said that the Li family wanted to whitewash, and this copper pea wanted to go white in a blink of an eye.
Fang Zhuo thought about it for a while, dialed Liu Yangyang's number, briefly described the matter, and then said: "From what Fan Xiong said, his son may still have some gangster habits, so he might as well make trouble. Let him enjoy the treatment of his father. Pick him up from the airport and put him in the police station for one night."
"Is this to grind his arrogance?" Liu Yangyang was stunned.
"There are so many things in the company, who has time to pay attention to him every day? If you can do something, do it. If you can't grind him out, go back as soon as possible." Fang Zhuo said.
"Well, this is also considered as adapting to the local customs. Come from the territory over there to this side and get a beating first." Liu Yangyang explained.
Fang Zhuo said: "It's hard work, but I feel relieved to leave it to you."
"It's not hard. Remember to give me a year-end bonus." Liu Yangyang smiled.
Fang Zhuo promised: "I will definitely give you a big red envelope."
The matter of the New York Anliang Society in the United States came to an end before the Spring Festival. I believe many people can sleep well.
However, as MIGA delivered the funds to the Li family, large and small funds suddenly flowed to the MIGA fund from the East Coast cities centered on New York, and most of them were local Chinese.
Regardless of whether it was a gang or not, regardless of how long it was established, regardless of whether the background was Huaxia or somewhere else, this private equity fund really made money.
Even on January 23, Fang Zhuo received another call from the Li family. After receiving $35 million, they wanted to invest another $10 million in private equity.
Li Xinyue's reason was-"We believe in Mr. Fang, believe in the professionalism and profitability of the MIGA fund, and hope to have the opportunity to cooperate in more areas in the future."
Fang Zhuo opened the door to do business, so he naturally would not refuse. In a blink of an eye, he repurchased the stocks of the two portal websites with these funds.
However, because the MIGA fund had reached the placard line and had a large amount of operations, it could not be traded for a period of time, so the purchase of stocks was operated from the PL fund.
Fang Zhuo also received a call from Zhang Chaoyang for this, and was asked about the reason for the MIGA fund's selling.
He could only explain that it was a breach of contract request from the client.
On January 24, only one week before the Lunar New Year, the company's wages, bonuses, and year-end bonuses were all paid out, and everyone was very satisfied with the generous treatment under the company's rapid development.
In addition, the tradition of small gifts given to hospitals by Guahao.com in the past two years has continued in the Medical Group, because with the growing scale of hospital software construction business, the maintenance of such a good relationship has become more important.
At present, the hospitals in Lin'an are the most coordinated in the city.
According to Zhou Xin, at the beginning, the best tertiary hospitals had business, and as the business progressed, other lesser hospitals also consulted.
After doing a few, competitors emerged in Lin'an, but many hospitals were not clear about the situation and still handed the business to the Medical Group.
Zhou Xin was a little confused about this. He knew that the boss did not find anyone to help, and it seemed that it should not be so neat just relying on the exchanges of Guahao.com.
Later, someone asked for the reason, and the answer of the administrative director of a hospital might be slightly closer to the truth.
"Seeing that other hospitals have handed over their business to the Medical Department, there must be a background. Otherwise, why did they all come to it? Everyone uses the Medical Department, and it would be bad if we don't."
The Medical Department has become the software construction unit for most hospitals in Lin'an City.
Fang Zhuo laughed for a long time after hearing such a reason, and told the company to give generous gifts in Lin'an, otherwise it would be a shame to the trust of other hospitals.
That evening, Fang Zhuo came home early from Hang Lung 23. He did not drive a Ferrari, but a bright red Audi. When he parked the car and entered the basement, he saw someone sizing up the quietly parked sports car.
"Doesn't it look good? This car, tsk, I heard it belongs to the richest man in Shanghai, and the richest man lives in our community."
Fang Zhuo passed by Ferrari and talked to the man with interest: "The richest man in Shanghai? Can't you?"
"Really, this Ferrari is so expensive. I heard that the richest man bought half a building in our community." Lin Guoyong, who was the first to notice the Ferrari parked in the parking space, said enthusiastically.
"The richest man doesn't necessarily buy a house, he might even rent a house to live in." Fang Zhuo laughed and chatted with this neighborhood neighbor.
"Hahaha." Lin Guoyong thought this young man was quite humorous.
The two got on the elevator together. Fang Zhuo knew his neighbor's name and that he worked in the media, but he felt that this person must not be doing a good job.
Otherwise, we would all talk about the richest man buying a house, but we don’t even know what the richest man looks like.
At half past five, Fang Zhuo arrived home and saw his parents who had just arrived at noon.
As soon as we opened the door to meet each other, my mother's voice came slowly: "Hey, are the presidents of Yike, Medical Science, Sina, MIGA Fund and PL Fund here? There are too many people and the house can't accommodate them."
"Ha, when these CEOs come home, they will be in full bloom. They have to entertain them even if they can't entertain them." Fang Zhuo looked at his mother Zhao Shumei with a smile.
Zhao Shumei said angrily: "You are now a promising person. You came here as soon as you asked us to come over, and you actually forced your father to sell the car!"
Fang Zhuo: "???"
He looked at his father Fang Tong, who had the same hatred on his face, and wondered when he had been forced to sell his truck.
Fang Tong remained silent and just blinked.
"Mom, actually my dad has never been good at expressing himself. As for selling the car, he told me that it's okay to sell it, but I think I've suffered for you for half my life. I want to use the money from selling the car to buy you jewelry." Fang Zhuo He said slowly, "What about gold chains and jade bracelets? I admired my dad very much when I heard them. He couldn't explain them, but I have to tell you today."
Fang Tong looked at his son, then at his wife's eyes, and nodded silently.
"It doesn't matter if it's a bracelet or not. We're here just to get closer to you and look after you." Zhao Shumei sighed, "I'll help you by the way."
Fang Zhuo nodded repeatedly and said: "After all, it is my dad's wish. You see, he usually doesn't express it, but he is more attentive than me at critical moments. It happens to be the Chinese New Year, so hurry up and go shopping in these two days."
"Your dad still has some conscience." Zhao Shumei smiled when she saw the big boy, "Why don't you go shopping with me? It's almost the Chinese New Year and you still don't have a rest?"
"There aren't many things to do. I still have an arranged meeting in Shanghai that I have to attend." Fang Zhuo winked at his father, "First let my dad accompany you for a walk, and then call Qi Qi and uncle to have a lively New Year." "
Fang Tingxiang couldn't help but sigh, what a busy year, the bustling belongs to them, this is a troublesome year for him.
