Text Chapter 1188: On Zhou
Chapter 1188
"Using the hot money from the Internet to support a theater company and several KTV chains, these two are the main consumption points on group buying. Then use theater companies and group buying websites to complement each other. One ticket price is more favorable, and the other can bring theaters to the market." The online attendance rate has increased. Movies are shown every day, and it is better to have empty seats than cheaper ones when the seats are full.”
"It's just that this model and the projects that start right away are full of failure factors, naive website managers, and a batch of hot money from the Chinese Empire. These shrewd investors, they fatten up one family and sell the other. The whole pit It’s those idiots who have money and no land to spend. They think that they can make money by speculating in real estate, and that the Internet is also easy to make money.”
"As everyone knows, this is a market for smart people. Those who come in rashly are more likely to be cheated than to make money. And what their team left behind are only those companies with good management teams. I plan to hold it for a long time to gain more benefits."
Sun Zhengyi nodded, and copied his Chinese words with a foreign voice: "The strong prey on the weak, it is like this in any industry. I have seen his investment model, and it is like this now, and there are still people who are willing to take over for him."
As he spoke, he looked envious again, "The Tianchao, with its vast land and rich resources, is a market that investors like. The beauty here will be more attractive than the United States in the future!"
Ma Yun made some analysis on Zhou Jiexi's Sky Investment and Blue Sky Capital, the two venture capital institutions under Zhou Jiexi. Another point he didn't say is that the reputation of these two companies is not very good, which he doesn't bother to say. Cannibalism in capitalist society is nothing new.
Looking at the situation now, Sun Zhengyi also knows a lot of things. Who doesn't investigate people these days, how can they do business with peace of mind!
"It seems that Elena has done a lot of hard work to help this young man here!" Sun Zhengyi said with emotion.
"Actually, it's not just her credit. This young man is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If I let him join the board of directors, he will seem to be in trouble in the future!" Ma Yun said to him with another layer of consideration, frowning slightly.
Sun Zhengyi nodded in a second understanding: "You mean the matter of Apple's board of directors some time ago?"
"Yeah!" Ma Yun took a sip of tea and continued, "Apple's board of directors is full of strife, and this young man managed to achieve that level in just one year, and was accepted by those old-timers on the board of directors." It is. It is now on the same side as them."
Sun Zhengyi shook his head and said: "No, this should not be said. Steve's physical condition made a group of directors around him need to make another choice. And Cooper, he is just a substitute for Steve. That's all, if Steve's body recovers, then Cooper will most likely become another victim."
"At least his ability proves that it is impossible to have such a good ability to let him get rid of the influence of Jobs in the short term, and many people in the board of directors know it. The turmoil at that time was just a signal that Jobs wanted to continue to take power. And Apple There are a group of directors on the board of directors who are known to only care about their interests, what do you think they will do when Apple has not paid dividends for many years?"
Sun Zhengyi's words are also somewhat referring to Ma Yun. As a shareholder of Arubaba, he hopes that the group can develop healthily. As it is now, Ma Yun actually holds too much power.
"This is the beginning of the turmoil, but in the end, several parties made compromises. It seems that Cooper will not be under too much pressure in the short term!" Sun Zhengyi said.
The two talked about other things on this topic, and they had their own plans about Zhou Jiexi. That young man is not so easy to get along with. This is the consensus of the two people. There are many people who can form cliques in Apple's board of directors.
"By the way, Brother Ma, didn't you say you wanted to find a bodyguard a while ago?" Sun Zhengyi asked suddenly.
"Yeah!" Ma Yun replied: "I had this consideration some time ago, but recently I think it's enough to have Tianjin around me. After all, it's hard to find a reliable bodyguard!"
"No, your net worth will only get higher and higher. You may not have any troubles in your celestial dynasty, but if you go abroad, there will be a big hidden danger to your safety. The United States, Canada and other places, many countries Possession of a gun is very serious. It is not enough to have a simple bodyguard around you!"
This is true, Ma Yun has also thought about it. Especially if your own safety is fine, the safety of your children and wife is the most important thing. The company is getting bigger and bigger, and the money is getting more and more. Sometimes he doesn't have much sense of security, especially in other countries, or when he is driving long distances, he is afraid of the bad luck that happened to the Li family in Xiangjiang.
As Sun Zhengyi said, he took out a magazine under Ma Yun's coffee table, and the cover inside was Zhou Jiexi, "Look at this young man, he is surrounded by a security team all the time. There may be hidden hidden things around him that we can't see. Bodyguard, this is not to say how safe he is, but he measured out his fangs and at least told those who dared to attack him that he is not so easy to mess with!"
Ma Yun has been studying Zhou Jiexi for a while recently, and this magazine is also collected to learn about him. After Sun Zhengyi said this for a while, he noticed that the burly security guards next to the young man didn't look like good people.
But as bodyguards, they give employers a sense of security.
Ma Yun couldn't help but enviously said: "He has built a good protective net for himself! He dares to let a group of European and American people protect him. He is really not afraid of accidents!"
"I don't think he needs to worry about these at all," Sun Zhengyi said, looking at Ma Yun. The curious expression on the other side gave him the desire to continue: "These security personnel are from the security company he invested in."
"Did you see the black person?"
Ma Yun looked at it, but felt that he was not a very good black man.
"Wanted criminals in Africa, mercenaries wanted by many countries!"
"What?" Ma Yun was shocked: "He dares to hire such a person?"
"Of course!" Sun Zhengyi nodded seriously: "And these people seem to be doing very well, at least as far as I know, this person's arrest warrant in Africa has been cancelled, and he is now an innocent American freeman. !"
"And it is obvious that there is more than one bodyguard with a wanted warrant around him. And most of them are people who have served in the army and have many years of mercenary career. These people have rich experience in actual combat and emergency response In response, as a bodyguard, he only needs a little training to be a very qualified security personnel."
Ma Yun didn't know why she felt a little moved: "He also opened a security company?"
"It seems that he is very famous among the rich in Asia, and the Blue Sky Security Shield belongs to him. However, there are not many shares in this company on the surface! In fact, who knows, do you think that a few security consultants established A company that has grown up can undertake the military contracting business of the United States? Can it have a military adviser at the level of admiral? "
"Military contracting business?" Ma Yun was a little curious about the word.
"Private military contracting is the company that the mercenaries belonged to in the past, which is the current military contracting company. It makes sense to follow the blackwater company that has already had a bad reputation."
In this way, Ma Yun understands, he knows about the Blackwater mercenaries, but now he is talking about private military contracting in disguise. He really didn't know much about this, at least how could such a thing happen in a country under the red flag.
"He still does this!" Ma Yun was really shocked at this moment. What this young man knew was really different from him. The gap seemed to be millions of miles. An IT creator in his impression is still a rich man, and now he is told that this person is also the owner of a company that exports violence.
"That's a certain thing. Their company has this business. Security companies are paired with military contracting companies. This is some business that a service company that wants to become stronger needs to open. This industry is easy to get started, but it may also be difficult. .”
"Some time ago, there were them in Myanmar. If you go to the Indonesian waters recently, you can see a flag with a blue shield logo there. They are very active in Asia, thanks to the rich connections of that young man. relation."
Speaking of this, he himself was a little thirsty, took the tea that the secretary had refilled, drank a cup and said: "But one thing that is very good is that his company's security business has a good reputation, especially for Asians. Chinese. Compared with other security companies, the service of Blue Sky Shield seems to be a little closer."
"So if you need a bodyguard, you can only talk to him. Even if it is not a long-term employment, temporary bodyguards are often needed!" Sun Zhengyi said.
Of course, Ma Yun didn't think that she was helping Zhou Jiexi sell business. This was just Sun Zhengyi trying to sell him a small favor, and it could also narrow the distance between the two of them. This period of time was a little unpleasant.
So at least tell him (Ma Yun) here that I still think about you. But, I also hope that you can think of me sometimes.
"That's really good. Brother Zhengyi thinks so much about my affairs. I really appreciate it!" Ma Yun picked up the teacup and said, "First, I'll toast you with tea instead of wine!"
"You're welcome, this is what a friend should do!" Sun Zhengyi said.
"Yes... yes!" Ma Yun also said.
As soon as the two cups touched, they both drank in one gulp.
Sun Zhengyi is very satisfied. There are many truths in this, but judging from the inner meaning of Ma Yun, he understands what he wants to say. This period of time is a little unpleasant, but if it is untied, everyone can still cooperate well. . Money is endless, so why not earn money when everyone is in a good mood.
