Chapter 254 The eldest son of the Li family

…

After seeing from Guo Shouyun's expression that he didn't know him, the visitor took the initiative to introduce: "Mr. Guo, I'm Li Zeju from Hong Kong, nice to meet you!"

"Li Zeju?"

Guo Shouyun suddenly realized that although the two lifetimes added up, he did not know what the eldest son of Li Jiacheng, who had a low-key nature because of the "Zhang Ziqiang kidnapping case", looked like his name.

"I've heard of Mr. Li's name for a long time, but I've never had the chance to meet him! It's a blessing for three lifetimes to be able to meet your Excellency here today!" Guo Shouyun enthusiastically extended his right hand to the other party.

The closeness reflected in his words surprised Li Zeju, but in this case, it was a good thing for the next communication between the two sides.

"Mr. Guo, you're welcome! I have often heard about your success in the financial investment field and the Internet industry, even in Hong Kong. I admire it very much!"

"American media won't give me any good comments!" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

"The news of the media is written for the public to see, and entertainment and hype are better than objective presentations of facts. In contrast, smart people prefer to judge based on facts."

Guo Shouyun smiled, "Please sit down!"

The latter nodded and sat down in the seat next to him.

"Mr. Li is not in Hong Kong, why did he come to the UK?"

A gleam of light flashed in Li Zeju's eyes, "What does Mr. Guo think about the current telecommunications market?"

"3g?"

Some past events appeared in Guo Shouyun's heart. If the memory is correct, the Li family, who made a lot of money from the 3G bubble last year, is now copying the old bottom of the European 3G industry. I have to say that they did pick a good time, the wily old head Li, and did a good business again.

"good!"

"If I have enough funds now, I will definitely buy the 3G licenses of all European countries." Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

"Oh? Does Mr. Guo have any basis? You must know that due to the Nasdaq crisis, the telecom market is very sluggish. Vodafone, British Telecom, Deutsche Telekom and other communication giants have chosen to slow down their investment in the 3G industry! In addition, the current 3G commercialization does not have a convincing profit model, and it is difficult to judge its future!"

Li Zeju stared closely at the man beside him. He wanted to know the opinion of this man who, despite being full of controversy in the outside world, seemed to him to be extremely talented in the business and financial industries.

Guo Shouyun also understands the other party's mind to some extent, but he doesn't mind exchanging his views on the telecommunications industry with the other party. After all, he expects to have little interest in the telecom industry for a decade. Of course, there is also the relationship between money and personal energy.

"Mr. Li, do you think 3G is the future?"

"certainly!"

Li Zeju said without hesitation. Everyone knows that 3G is the future, but no one knows if it's time for mass adoption.

Moreover, there is a well-known law in the business world, companies that are half a step ahead of their peers in technology succeed, but one step ahead is failure. The most famous examples are the Iridium program and Concorde.

"According to Moore's Law: Under the condition of constant price, the number of components that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit will double about every 18-24 months, and the performance will also double. In other words, every The performance of hardware that a dollar can buy will more than double every 18-24 months. This means that the performance of our mobile phones, computers, and TVs will double every year and a half to two years. The performance of hardware As performance increases, the requirements for communication performance will naturally be higher, and currently the most anticipated communication standard is 3g. Therefore, in the long run, which communication operator can give priority to meeting this requirement of customers, then he Will have an advantage in the future!"

"Let's talk about the most concerning timing issue! The reason why major European telecom giants are worried about 3G investment is that they suffered heavy losses in the early 3G bubble, and now they can't find a reasonable and clear profit. It's just a model. It's the nature of people to seek benefits and avoid disadvantages, and the same is true for companies composed of people. Their choices are not surprising. However, the most important thing in business investment is opportunity. When others hesitate, build Make heavy bets under the premise of careful analysis. Only by taking certain risks can you reap considerable profits in the future. As the saying goes: be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful!”

"It seems that Mr. Guo also believes in Mr. Buffett's theory of value investing!" After thinking for a while, Li Zeju said.

"If a person wants to be successful, the best way is to learn from those who are successful. Mr. Buffett's theory of value investing has proven its superiority. Why should I give up such a successful experience? Books are worse than no books'. To learn the strengths of others, you can't just copy them. Combining your own actual situation and making the best choices for yourself is the smart way of doing things!"

"Since Mr. Guo is so optimistic about the telecommunications industry, why not join in?"

"I think it's a pity that my financial resources and energy are limited." After a pause, "If I didn't invest in the energy industry, I would definitely choose the telecommunications industry!"

In fact, Guo Shouyun's remarks are not without purpose. When he was holding a huge amount of money, he did wander between telecommunications or energy. After considering it comprehensively, he still chose energy, especially energy-related public utilities.

The reason for this is mainly because the two sides in crisis at the same time, there are many giants in the telecommunications industry, the acquisition cost is more expensive, and the integration is difficult. In contrast, there are many large companies in the public sector, but all of them are regional. Unlike the telecommunications industry, national giants such as Verizon, AT&T, and WorldCom control most of the market and are heavily headed.

Li Zeju nodded. Now Guo Shouyun's Pan Pacific Energy Group has set off an acquisition frenzy in the U.S. public sector. On average, two major companies have made a rush in one month, and the impact has long been not limited to the United States. As far away as Hong Kong, he also knows a lot about it.

"Mr. Li, if Hutchison wants to make a difference in the European telecommunications industry. The best way is to choose two or three major markets, buy 3G cameras at a discount, carry out commercial layout, and develop the market seriously. After the foundation is solid, the profit and loss will be realized. When the balance is reached, compete for other markets. Of course, look for opportunities!" Guo Shouyun thought for a while and then said.

The influence of the Li family in Hong Kong, and even the entire Greater China region, is extraordinary, and there will be no shortage of places to deal with in the future. Now using your previous knowledge to give advice to the other party can be regarded as investing in favor in advance.

"Which markets is Mr. Guo optimistic about?"

"Haven't He Huang already had a choice?" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

If he remembered correctly, Hutchison started out with the UK, Italy and the Netherlands!

"It seems that Mr. Guo doesn't know anything about Hutchison?" Li Zeju said.

"Of course, I have paid attention to every opportunity after the crisis, and telecommunications is one of them. As one of the major players in the telecommunications industry, Hutchison naturally needs to take a closer look!"

Li Zeju nodded, "Since Mr. Guo has an understanding of the macro and micro aspects of the telecommunications industry, has he considered the profit model of 3G networks?"

"I thought about it, but I didn't find a good solution!" Guo Shouyun shook his head. In fact, he knew very well that 3G would not be profitable until smartphones became widespread. But of course it is impossible for him to talk about what happened nearly ten years later.

A flash of disappointment flashed in Li Zeju's eyes.

"Gentlemen, may I sit here for a while?"

Just then, a young voice suddenly interjected.

The two raised their heads subconsciously and looked at the tall, handsome young man standing not far in front of them, Guo Shouyun just felt a little familiar. But Li Zeju suddenly stood up.

"His Royal Highness William!"

Guo Shouyun was stunned. He didn't expect that the British second-in-line heir, Prince William, who would later become famous among celebrities all over the world, would actually appear at the charity auction.

"Hello!" Prince William stretched out his hand and shook hands with the two, then pointed to the vacant seat next to him, "Can I sit?"

"Of course!" Li Zeju nodded. Guo Shouyun is naturally no problem. After all, everyone wants to have a relationship with the British crown prince, and he is no exception.

After the three of them sat down again, "I saw the two chatting very speculatively just now. Can I have the honor to know what you are talking about?"

After Li Zeju and Guo Shouyun looked at each other, the former said, "Mr. Guo and I are discussing the views of the 3G telecommunications industry!"

"Oh, Mr. Guo also wants to invest in 3g telecom business?"

Guo Shouyun shook his head, "I am very interested in public utilities in the UK, but although I am optimistic about the 3G business, I have no plans to enter it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After all, my energy is limited, and those industries under my banner are enough. I'm busy! Besides, it's not a good thing to be against a shrewd investor like Hutchison!"

"Mr. Guo is joking. In the telecommunications industry, Hutchison can't compare to giants like Vodafone and British Telecom!"

"You two are humbled, you are both the top business elites." After a pause, Prince William continued, "How did Mr. Guo come to the UK?"

"My fiancee is British!" Guo Shouyun didn't hide it.

"Oh?"

Prince William and Li Zeju were surprised at the same time. Although the outside world has criticized Guo Shouyun a lot for his business investment, he rarely mentions his family. As for the other half, even less.

In contrast, Prince William is more concerned than Li Zeju. After all, it is not a bad thing to be able to win over a business tycoon's feelings for Britain.
