Two days later, Central, Hong Kong.

Li Xiangping stood on the top floor of an office building. While observing the surrounding environment, he felt emotion------

More than ten years later in real history, Alima's Ant Financial Operation IPO was carried out in this building. Hundreds of people prepared in this building for more than half a year. They thought they would become the largest IPO in the world, but they were stopped by relevant departments at critical moments.

Li Xiangping did not expect that his cousin led his team to block the big tycoons on Wall Street were also in this building.

After enjoying the scenery of Victoria Harbour for a while, my cousin brought in with a man under 40:

"Come on Xiangping, I'll introduce you to you. This is Mr. Hong, a partner of Goldman Sachs Greater China, and is also the most important business partner in this operation. Mr. Hong, this is Li Xiangping..."

"Haha, I know, a famous Go national player, only one genius has been produced in five hundred years..."

Mr. Hong seemed very enthusiastic and looked familiar. However, Li Xiangping was not frightened by his name as a "partner".

Because he knew that the partners of Goldman Sachs in the United States were actually not particularly valuable and were not the real boss.

The operation model of this investment bank is to look for 500 so-called "partners" around the world every year, and then the first trial of the year, some people are re-elected and some are replaced.

Well, if you use the construction industry category that Li Xiangping is familiar with, Goldman Sachs' so-called partners are actually equivalent to project managers in the construction industry.

However, compared with partners in other regions, partners in Greater China are still a little more valuable, because for a long time, Goldman Sachs usually has only 3 partners in Greater China, and the practice is that two are in Hong Kong and one in mainland China------

In fact, according to the economic activity of our country, Goldman Sachs wants to die and set up more partners in China, but our country has strict supervision and a very clear mind. It is good to know that Wall Street is not a good person, and it would be nice to be able to make a little hole for them.

Mr. Hong is actually a Banana man, and his ancestors have immigrated to the Lighthouse Country, but he speaks Mandarin well. Because he is not familiar with it, Li Xiangping actually focuses on listening when chatting.

As he listened, he roughly guessed why he made so much money this time-----

The main reason is Wall Street asking for dogs, but the Federal Reserve saved Citi but failed to save Lehman Brothers. The key role played in this is actually the companions of Lehman Brothers such as Goldman Sachs, Merrill, Morgan Stanley, etc.

Of course, my cousin knew that Li Xiangping was an amateur, so he didn't talk much at this time. In less than a quarter of an hour, Mr. Hong said goodbye, Li Weiping sent him to the door and made an appointment with him to form a card game in the past few days, then returned to the office to continue talking to Li Xiangping.

"Brother, how much did you make this time?"

Li Weiping smiled and said, "No, I know you are coming, I have asked someone to prepare the report."

I still take care of Li Xiangping, an amateur. The report my cousin asked someone to make was easy to understand. After browsing it quickly, Li Xiangping looked up and said in surprise:

"Seven, seventy and six hundred million, how much leverage have you added?"

Li Weiping continued to smile and said, "Leverage is no longer the focus now. The focus is on this return. The number in front of you is the pure return this time. I asked you here this time. In addition to teaching you how to play cards, I just want to discuss the next plan. After all, such a large amount of money can't be placed in the bank for interest. In addition, after doing this, I intentionally shifted my focus to China, and I don't know what you think."

Of course, Li Xiangping has no objection to this. The current Hong Kong industry has been completely hollowed out. Except for the financial industry, the other industries are getting worse and worse. So for a venture capital company, it is obviously more appropriate to move back to China now.

Of course, due to supervision, some capital operations can still be left in Hong Kong, but the projects must be found in the mainland.

After talking about this, Li Xiangping began to show off his pitiful knowledge again, because he knew that although the investment company sounds nice, it seems that it is just money to make money, but in the later generations, it is extremely serious.

In his previous life, Li Xiangping knew a friend who was engaged in investment. Once he was optimistic about a project, he followed it for a long time and had a long talk. When he finally waited for everything to sign a contract to make money, the other party suddenly disappeared and refused to answer the phone call.

Later, when I inquired, it turned out that while the guy was talking here, he was secretly talking to a venture capital company with a more famous and stronger reputation.

Later, Li Xiangping's friends found that the conditions on both sides were actually similar, but because they were more famous there, Li Xiangping's friends were kicked away like that.

In later generations, there were only two and a half largest venture capital companies in China, one is Sequoia, one is Hillhouse, and half may be considered Fosun of Shencheng. Especially the first two companies, the world joked that "there is a place where the red ones are, and no grass will grow", meaning that as long as they are targeted, there will be nothing else in their peers. Even if you want to give money to others, they don't want it.

Li Xiangping showed off this insight in front of his cousin very tactfully, and then asked his cousin what plans he had.

Then Li Weiping looked very surprised:

"Hillhouse? Are you talking about the Hillhouse that was founded three years ago?"

Li Xiangping actually didn't know when Hillhouse was founded, but at this time, of course he had to pretend to be half an expert, so he nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, yes, that family, their boss's surname is Zhang..."

Li Weiping interrupted him with a smile and said, "I know it's Zhang Lei, so do you know how much seed fund was when Lao Zhang started?"

Li Xiangping caught him blindly at that time. He knew that the "seed fund" mentioned by his cousin probably meant the start-up capital, but he didn't know about such things.

Fortunately, Li Weiping did not make things difficult for him, but said to himself:

"The seed fund Lao Zhang obtained at that time was actually only 20 million US dollars. Do you think we are so many billions of dollars, and we still need to be afraid of him?"

"ah?!"

Hearing that Hillhouse, which had reached a scale of 100 billion in later generations, had only such a small amount of capital, Li Xiangping was speechless at that time and never dared to show off in front of his cousin again.

Fortunately, Li Weiping didn't take Li Xiangping's words seriously. After briefly speaking his general plans, his attention returned to Texas Hold'em:

"Okay, Xiangping, let's talk about these things after we return to China. The focus of this time is actually to teach you how to play cards. By the way, you can prepare it in the evening. Lao Xu called just now and said that his friends were very interested when they knew you were coming and insisted on entertaining you."

Li Xiangpingqi said, "Old Xu's friend? Isn't it just the group of people who are Dad?"

Li Weiping nodded and said, "Lao Xu comes from the mainland, so who else can there besides them? But it is normal for them to say that they want to entertain you. After all, they are all white knights of Lao Xu. This time they are considered partners. It is also necessary for everyone to meet and chat. After seeing this, we will ignore everything. I will take you to Macau for two days before talking about it."

"hehe."

While the two brothers were chatting here, Li Xiangping certainly wouldn't know that in another place in Hong Kong, another group of people gathered together to discuss how to entertain Li Xiangping at night.

Yes, these people are Lao Xu's friends, the group of rich people in the legendary "Da D Club".

Of course, Li Xiangping didn't know that the reason why these people were so serious was not because of his face, nor because he was a national Go player. It was mainly because Li Weiping's performance was too amazing in the past or two years, and now it has become a legend in the industry.

In fact, when Li Weiping first arrived in Hong Kong, it was difficult for locals to look down on this local bun from the mainland. Everyone knows that this mainlander seems to have a strong capital, but his operations are too amateur. Not only did he take the courage of the bear heart and leopard, he actually wanted to attack Wall Street, but even all his operations were like being angry with others-----

Although Li Weiping's operation was not very popular, he did not deliberately conceal it. At least he could not hide it from the interested people in this financial center.

Everyone just saw that the guy from the mainland was like he was angry with Lehman Brothers. For a whole year and a half, almost all of them had reverse operations completely opposite to Lehman Brothers.

Not only are there so few people in the country that are so crazy, but even if you look at it, there are few people in the world who do this.

Now, he has succeeded in such an amateur technique, and the profits he earns are beyond everyone's imagination. So in Hong Kong, a money society, Li Weiping is of course impressive.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's really a teenager since ancient times. This mainlander is really amazing. Lao Xu, how did you get online with this person? By the way, what is the background of this person?"

Before contacting Li Weiping, Lao Xu had already found out the situation of Li Xiangping's family very clearly. However, at this time, he certainly had to pretend to behave, so this guy pretended to be mysterious:

"The background is very deep. Liu Sheng, don't ask. I tell you, they are..."

Having said that, Lao Xu shut up, but pretended to point his hand at the sky:

"Okay, OK, today is not the time to talk about this. The focus now is to treat these two brothers well and take on a good relationship first so that we can continue to deal with each other. Lao Yang,"

Speaking of this, Lao Xu suddenly said to a middle-aged man wearing glasses:

"That young man likes to play Western studs. Then we will play with him a few games. It is best if someone is accompanying him to play cards. I will arrange all the beautiful girls you have arranged."

Lao Xu's old Yang is actually the boss Yang of the Emperor. Although this guy is a bit powerful in the entertainment industry, he is only a little bit higher in the big D meeting, and his role is only a little higher than that of a group of idle people. Even Lao Xu can call him around at this time.

After hearing Lao Xu's words, Lao Yang held his glasses and smiled:

"It has been arranged a long time ago. Don't worry. In your mainland words, I'll do it, don't worry."
Chapter completed!
