My Age of Investment

  Chapter 747 First Entry to Wall Street

  Wall Street is a large street extending from Broadway Road to the East River in the southern part of Manhattan, New York City. It is 500 meters long and 11 meters wide.

  This narrow and short street brings together the world's densest financial institutions and large enterprises, including the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange, Goldman Sachs, DuPont, and so on.

  Xia Jingxing bought a cup of coffee, held it in her hand, and strolled along this shabby Wall Street, enjoying the street scenery.

   said that it is dilapidated because many buildings on both sides of the road have a history of over a hundred years. The architectural style is similar to that of the concession houses on the Bund of Magic City. The American side is called the Gilded Age style.

  Xia Jingxing stopped by the street and looked at the business elites coming and going. Everyone was carrying a bag, his hairstyle was meticulous, and he walked in a hurry.

   "Mr. Xia, there is so much flavor here!"

  Xia Jingxing turned his head and glanced at Liu Xiaoduo, who was standing beside him carrying a bag, and asked, "What's the smell?"

   "The smell of money!"

  Liu Xiaoduo looked around, and his eyes were full of money symbols.

  Xia Jingxing laughed loudly, “What the smell of money is, I saw a group of tyrants, and it smells like money.”

   Liu Xiaoduo dissatisfied: "Look how fast they walk, almost all of them are trotting, so cherish time, it must be to make money, time is money."

   "That makes sense."

  Xia Jingxing nodded, and then walked towards No.40 Wall Street not far away.

  It was a 70-story building built in 1930, 282.5 meters high.

  The original name of the building was Chase Manhattan Bank Building, but now it is renamed Trump Tower.

  Passing through the hall with a ceiling height of nearly ten meters, Xia Jingxing walked into the elevator, and Liu Xiaoduo pressed the button on the 49th floor.

  That’s right, the New York office was also set as a lucky number by patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

  The entire 49th floor is leased by Envision Capital, with an area of ​​approximately 1,300 square meters.

  When you get out of the elevator, you will see the Chinese and English Logo of Vision Capital.

  The glass door opened, Xia Jingxing walked into the modernly decorated office, smiled at the blonde girl at the front desk who was standing up and saluting, and continued to walk inside.

  Walking into the open-plan office area and looking at it at a glance, it seems to be a sea of ​​display screens.

  At each workstation, there are six display screens arranged one after another. The employees are tightly wrapped so that no one is visible.

  Jiang Ping was standing at a desk talking to a trader, and when he saw Xia Jingxing coming, he immediately walked over.

   "Jingxing, I came here so soon, I thought you would be a few days late."

  Xia Jingxing smiled, “It’s important, it’s better to come here earlier.”

  Many traders around heard that the boss was coming, they craned their necks and looked curiously.

  Xia Jingxing suddenly saw his heads popping up on the surrounding display walls, just like the game of smashing moles, and found it interesting.

   Jiang Ping saw this scene, his heart was not happy, his eyes stared, and he scolded: "Hurry up and get back to work!"

  Xia Jingxing had never seen the gentle Jiang Ping cursing, and thought he had always had a good temper. At this moment, it was strange to see him suddenly angry.

  The employees were scolded, and quickly retracted their heads like gophers.

  Jiang Ping took Xia Jingxing into the office prepared for him.

   As soon as I walked in, I felt a sense of luxury, exquisite decoration, and a large space. Standing next to the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can overlook Wall Street.

  Not sitting for two minutes, Liu Hai also came.

   asked the secretary to serve three cups of coffee, and the three sat on the sofa and chatted.

   "How is the fund raising?"

  Xia Jingxing tilted Erlang's legs and took a sip of coffee.

   "It's coming to an end."

  Liu Hai smiled and said, “Because of the past performance support and the well-known LP of Waterfall Investment, the subscription is very active.”

  Xia Jingxing put down the cup and said with a smile: "So, the share fee seems to be a little lower!"

  "It’s not low, it’s already 30%. Few Wall Street dared to collect such a high. Only the head hedge funds such as Renaissance and Qiaoshui have the confidence to collect such a high.

  Compared to them, after all, we lack some background and time test, and we still lack a major proof of ourselves. "

   Liu Hai paused, "I believe that after this operation is over, everyone should know our names."

"Do not."

  Xia Jingxing shook his head. He has made up his mind. This time the opportunity to show off will be given to other institutions, and Vision Capital will need to grow in awkward fashion.

   Liu Hai remembered Xia Jingxing’s instructions on the phone, and his eyes became a little bleak, “Are we really going to give this opportunity to become famous to another institution?

  I know that the reputation of shorting subprime loans is not good.

  However, for the rich and LP, making money is the ability and good reputation.

  If we live up to the reputation of being the biggest winner of subprime mortgages, we will soon become a tens of billions of dollars of hedge funds, and even one of the top ten hedge funds is not a big problem. "

  Liu Hai grew up in the United States, and his thinking is more American, and he is not afraid of being tired of fame.

Jiang Ping is different. When he grew up in China, his thinking is more modest. He shook his head and said: "William, I don't agree with your point of view. In my opinion, this reputation is a poisonous candy wrapped in a beautiful coat. We can not eat.

  Face, lining, we can only choose one! "

   "Why is this face-saving?"

   Liu Hai’s head shook like a rattle, “This is also an interest. Countless people will wave a check to subscribe for our fund shares. Even if the share fee rises to 40% or 50%, there is no shortage of sought after.”

  Xia Jingxing said lightly: “Ten billion fund is not a difficult goal. Without this reputation, we can also achieve it.

  It's better to be safe. After all, hedge funds are only part of my industry. "

  Hearing this, Liu Hai understood that the boss is still considering the bad reputation affecting his other industries.

   "Okay, I see."

   Liu Hai stopped insisting, nodded and said.

  Xia Jingxing looked at Jiang Ping and asked, “How many small hedge funds have acquired at present?”

  "8 companies have already been acquired. If a fund invests two or three billion dollars each, it is not particularly conspicuous.

  It's just that if someone wants to check, many problems can still be found. "

  Jiang Ping frowned, “In addition, these fund offices are located all over the United States, and we cannot move them all into the Trump Tower grandiosely.

  But if the employees are scattered to various places, it will be very troublesome to manage. "

  "No matter what method is used, these problems must be properly solved. It doesn't matter if you spend more money."

   Xia Jingxing stared at Jiang Ping, “Since you decide to act, then do the full set, otherwise you won’t do it.”

   "Yes." Jiang Ping nodded.

  Xia Jingxing thought for a while and asked: "What attitude do Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have?"

  "They haven't answered us for the time being."

   Liu Hai shook his head, “It’s not necessarily a refusal, maybe their senior wants to talk to you.”

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "Okay, leave this to me to communicate."

   "3 billion U.S. dollars, are all in vests?"

   Liu Hai looked at Xia Jingxing, and said tentatively: "Or... keep a part of the funds in your hands, otherwise it would be weird."

  Xia Jingxing smiled, "Do you want to create a good performance report for the company?"

   was thoroughly seen through, Liu Hai blushed for a while, "All of them made wedding dresses for others, thanks! Even if we are not the biggest winner, we will be the second, third, and fourth head office.

  If this is the case, it will be easier to raise some funds later.

  Furthermore, too many people know about the fact that we have raised $1.5 billion in external funds.

   Fictitious, fictitious and real, this is the most intelligent means. "

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "You are right, then keep a certain amount of money in hand!"

  Seeing that the suggestion was adopted, Liu Hai looked happy and was about to speak.

  The landline on the desk rang suddenly.

  Xia Jing walked over and picked up the phone. After listening to it for a while, her expression became weird, not smiling.
