Many things are actually not too big, but according to the company's regulations, he, the CEO, needs to sign to complete the process. Mainly financial expenditures and personnel transfers.

In terms of business, Zhou Buqi has been greatly delegated power.

In another ten days, his private jet will be able to arrive in China, and the formalities have already been completed. After further testing and reporting in the country, the crew members and flight attendants are selected, and it will be ready to use in July.

Boss Zhou needs to travel all over the world, not only to inspect branches in various places, but also to build relationships and make contacts everywhere.

If he still needs to sign for business affairs at this time, it will affect the efficiency too much.

"By the way, the matter of Kuliu is settled."

"Oh? So fast?"

Only then did Zhou Buqi walk out from the sea of ​​documents, feeling a little excited.

Ning Yaxian said with a smile: "Boss He went to Shanghai to discuss it in person. The price is higher than you expected. It's 200 million yuan, and the deal is in cash."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "It's just right, let's see if he is free and let him come!"

Ten minutes later, He Yang arrived.

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "The Kuliu case is so easy?"

"It's okay, industry-driven."

He Yang acted lightly, but he really let out a breath of turbidity in his heart, feeling like he was invigorated.

This is the first time he has discussed cooperation with industry leaders, and he has achieved rapid success.

In the past, transactions of this level had to be done in person by Zhou Buqi.

Zhou Buqi was very happy, "Is it really a 200 million deal?"

He Yang nodded, "Well, I sent Nie Caijun and Chen Guohuan to sign the contract, and it will be reached this week. 200 million yuan, a little higher than your expected 25 million US dollars."

Zhou Buqi praised: "It's amazing."

He Yang shook his head and explained: "The main reason is that Tudou and Youku are too fierce. Kuliu's entrepreneurial team is also eager to raise funds and want to grab the market. Shanda is worried that the shares will be diluted after the financing, and wants to further control Kuliu. Shanda and Kuliu are mixed together, I think it is a suspension. The conflict between the investor and the founding team is not small."

Zhou Buqi took it lightly, "It doesn't matter, we only do business, regardless of other things. Compared with Kuliu, Shanda is too powerful, and they can't resist it. This time, Shanda got another 10% of the shares from us, and the control is even stronger. Big. Merger is a matter of time.”

He Yang smiled, "Shen Xiangyang said, are you going to America again?"

"Yes, I was going to tell you about that."

Zhou Buqi's expression was more serious.

"What's up?"

Seeing his state, He Yang knew that something was going on.

Zhou Buqi said: "I have some money in my hand, and my father's. I have invested in a private equity fund in the United States, and I am shorting...the effect is very good!"

He Yang smiled, "You have a good investment vision."

Zhou Buqi glanced at him and said with emotion: "Ziweixing is very short of money now! The profit from selling Kuliu is really a drop in the bucket."

He Yangdao: "You can't say that. Ziweixing's investment in Kuliu is an amazing investment case, and everyone is discussing it enthusiastically. At the beginning, the investment in Kuliu was only 5 million U.S. dollars. After two years, not only did we earn back 200 million, plus a grand literary department."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "What I want to talk about is a big deal!"

"oh?"

"Ziweixing has USD 1.5 billion in foreign exchange in its account, right?"

"right."

"Not enough!"

He Yang raised his eyebrows, feeling bad, "Boss, what do you mean?"

Zhou Buqi said: "For the Japanese market alone, US$1 billion will be invested this year. To develop into the European and American markets, this amount of foreign exchange is simply not enough."

He Yang exclaimed, "You...you want to use the company's money to go short in the US financial market?"

It really is a big deal!

Previously, Boss Zhou invested in private equity funds on Wall Street, which was his own money, so of course he would do whatever he wanted, and he would bear the risk himself.

But it's different with the company's money.

This is a risk shared by all shareholders.

This decision is too big!

The financial market is changing rapidly, especially on Wall Street, outsiders can't play it at all, and whoever plays will die. There is only one way, and that is to hand over the money to a Wall Street financial expert and let him trade.

But many people on Wall Street are crazy.

Can often play with frighteningly high leverage.

He Yang was very worried, "Isn't this too risky? We are not an investment company. Putting reserve funds into the financial market... It's not like this has never happened before. Most of the companies are in crisis. If it doesn't work, we can only Going to gamble with all our strength. Ziwei Star is far from that level now, and we are short of money, so we can continue to raise funds."

Zhou Buqi said: "I don't need to think about going public. It's impossible in the past few years. Finding private equity funds for financing... This process is too long, and I can't get any good price."

He Yang was worried, "It's too risky, too radical, there's no need for Ziweixing to do this."

"It's not just us. There are several private enterprise owners who want to enter the market together and try it out." Zhou Buqi smiled, "What are you worried about? I invested all my family's 330 million U.S. dollars in it, and now it's almost over." Doubled!"

He Yang said with a bitter face: "That's finance, one step to heaven, one step to hell. With such a high leverage, you might lose money after two or three waves of operations."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "I have already decided on this matter! This is not only to earn extra money for Ziwei Star and solve the financial problem. It is also a means for us to make friends with colleagues in the industry. Let's take them to the United States to make money together. Will Ziweixing's business go smoothly in the future?"

He Yang twitched the corner of his mouth, "Of course it's okay if it succeeds, but I'm afraid of failure."

Zhou Buqi said: "So this investment, Ziweixing will take the lead. If it fails, we will lose the most, and they won't be able to complain even if they want to."

He Yang was stunned, "How much do you want to take?"

"Don't we have 1.5 billion US dollars in foreign exchange..."

"no!"

Before he finished speaking, He Yang interrupted sternly, absolutely not.

Zhou Buqi was very strange, "Old He, you still don't feel at ease when I do things?"

He Yang said in a deep voice: "It's not a matter of confidence or lack of confidence. The reserve funds are the guarantee for the healthy operation of the company. It's good to say that domestically, if there is a problem with Japan's business and the foreign exchange is taken away by you, you have to There is an operational crisis."

Then, he sighed, and further explained: "Don't think about winning, think about losing first. In case this investment fails, it will be lost, and it must not affect the normal operation of the company. You must keep a sum of money. The reserve fund gives us ample time to raise capital.”

Zhou Buqi was also disturbed by his seriousness and uneasiness.

The stock market crash caused by the subprime mortgage crisis in the previous life occurred in August, and Lehman Brothers sent a bankruptcy signal. Later, they began to rescue Lehman, but the rescue failed. In September, Lehman went bankrupt, and the global stock market became even worse.

According to common sense, entering the market and shorting at this time should make a lot of money.

But finance has never been common sense.

Logic can be used for value investing, but it cannot be used for short-term speculation.

This is Zhou Buqi's second appearance, and he will recruit a group of people. Because it is foreign exchange, the amount of funds must be a big deal, at most billions of dollars.

Compared with the US financial market of tens of trillions of dollars, it is not worth mentioning at all.

However, it doesn't take much effort to push down the dominoes!

If this little extra money changes the trend of the financial crisis, and everything goes against the grain, leading to the successful rescue of Lehman and the recovery of the global economy, then the sky and the sky will be dark.

Zhou Buqi's business plan for Ziwei Star is almost over.

After hesitating for only three to five seconds, Zhou Buqi's heart sank, he waved his hand, and snorted coldly: "That's it! How can investment not take risks? The investment risks I bear are the smallest in the world." Risk! I don't believe it, Halley's Comet can really hit the earth. Tell me, how much foreign exchange can you take out?"

He Yang sighed, knowing that Boss Zhou's decision could not be changed, he took a deep breath, "If you must do it, then I will definitely spare no effort to support it. You...you can transfer up to 1.2 billion US dollars."

Zhou Buqi gritted his teeth, "Okay, then 1.2 billion US dollars! Damn, this time I will fight with Lao Mei!"

He Yang's expression was a bit complicated. He was one of the core executives of Ziwei Star, one of the few who could see problems from a perspective other than business.

Obviously, Boss Zhou's second entry to help Ziweixing make money is just a matter of course.

Ziweixing is short of money, so it is enough to go to the primary market for financing.

Even if the economy is not good and financing is difficult, it will not be difficult for a company with potential stocks like Ziweixing.

The most important reason is that he wants to help others make money.

This is the unspoken motive, right?

He Yang pointed to the top of his head, "You want to take them to play together?"

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, with a calm expression, "This is the only way to help them make a lot of money, so you don't have to worry about Ziwei Star. If you give shares, there will be huge hidden dangers. We only do the market and don't stand in line, so as not to In the future, it will be found that something will happen. This point, we have to learn from Lao Zhang upstairs, like Shanda, Giant, Ninetowns, Sina, Ali, Baidu, etc., will be dangerous in the future.”

He Yang sighed, "It's not easy to sit in your position. Everyone in the company thought that Zhang Yiming had the chance to become the president because of suffering, but they don't know how you are sheltering from the wind and rain outside."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "If you're in his position, you can't have a vegetarian meal, right?"

"Ordinary people can't understand it."

"This matter is confidential."

"Huh?" He Yang raised his eyebrows, "It's all kept secret? Should we also keep the matter of investing in the financial market secret?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, keep it a secret. You, me, and Nie Caijun just need to know. The risk is too great, don't let them worry about it, and do their job well."

He Yang frowned, "This is not in compliance with the rules... What about the investors? Keep it a secret?"

"Yes, keep it secret!"

"This will offend people and violate the spirit of the contract."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand and snorted, "There's nothing to offend. The biggest investor is Softbank. We have so many business contacts with Masayoshi Son, he won't do anything."

He Yang nodded, "You can just decide, when will you move? Go to the United States this time?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, hurry up! Enter the market early and make money early!"

...

That night, Zhou Buqi made an appointment with Boss Liu, Boss Lu, Lao Shi, Lao Wang and others, and then contacted some other mysterious people through Boss Liu and Boss Lu to discuss important matters.

Go to America to make money!
