At the beginning of New Year's Day in 2018, the first ray of sunshine, which symbolizes the new year, shines on the earth, but it cannot stop the chill of winter. With a cold air moving south, the Magic City has officially entered winter.
Even though the temperature increased slightly during the day, the outside temperature was still less than 10 degrees. Coupled with the biting cold wind, it was obvious that the beginning of 2018 was not a warm one.
Although today is Monday, fortunately there is a New Year's Day holiday, which is good news for many migrant workers participating in the New Year's Eve carnival.
After all, in such weather, being able to sleep in the dark under a warm quilt is undoubtedly one of the most precious little blessings in life.
Zhou Dongsheng is no exception. He slept from 2017 to 2018. He had a solid sleep and welcomed the new year with full energy.
Looking out the window at the sparkling Huangpu River under the sunshine, and taking a sip of delicious morning tea, I feel relaxed and happy.
As the time hand moved forward an inch and pointed above 2018, a memorable sentence subconsciously emerged in Zhou Dongsheng's mind:
Do you miss the summer of 2018, or do you miss the summer of 2018?
Especially after all the experiences in the future, looking back on this year, 18 years seems to be extremely precious, so much so that a saying gradually emerged that 2018 is the year recognized as the year with the highest happiness.
After all, if this year is used as a dividing line, it seems that after 18 years, the development of the entire world has changed in one direction, sliding in an unspeakable direction, and unfolding in an unexpected way...
For people in the past, the reason why 2018 is worth remembering is because of the beauty that cannot be returned, but for Zhou Dongsheng at this moment...
2018 is undoubtedly a symbol of better things, because all good things have just begun!
In particular, with the arrival of 2018, it undoubtedly heralds that...the quadrennial World Cup is about to kick off again, and that summer carnival that belongs to the world is about to sweep across!
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but smile knowingly. It was not because of football or anything else, but simply thinking of the complicated emotions he had when facing the World Cup four years ago...
There is no doubt that the World Cup four years ago was truly a key turning point in his life. To this day, the unprecedented battle between the German tanks and the Kingdom of Brazil still remains fresh in Zhou Dongsheng's memory.
As for his impression of the 2018 World Cup, Zhou Dongsheng’s memory has been completely blurred now. After all, it has been washed away by another four years. To a certain extent...
You can even be considered a middle-aged man walking on the Fourth Road, right?
But feeling the body of a man in his early twenties, the vigorous energy constantly emerging, and everything he had now, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel satisfied.
Obviously, it doesn't matter whether it's the success or failure of the 2018 World Cup, or my original limited understanding of 2018. I already have enough confidence to write a new chapter for myself.
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel complacent and stopped slacking off. After all, there were still many things he wanted to do, and time was tight, so he had to act quickly.
After all, there is really not much time left for yourself this time!
………
After the New Year's Eve carnival, the world is still running as usual. After the Golden Second Awards ceremony comes to an end, its subsequent impact will naturally be further fermented on the Internet until it is replaced by new hot events.
After all, in this world, new things are happening all the time, and coupled with today's highly developed Internet, it is enough for any new thing to spread to every corner of the world in an instant.
Although the calendar has been changed and started from the first one again, it does not mean that everything in 2017 has been changed. The far-reaching influence of some things is still continuing...
In comparison, the Golden Second Award, which attracts more attention from the general public, is nothing more than a trivial matter. Among them, the top priority...
Perhaps it’s the Dongsheng Overseas Fund’s massive revenue of tens of billions of dollars, although it didn’t create much of a stir on the public level.
After all, the concept of tens of billions of dollars is a bit too far away from public perception. At most, it is just an "oh", making tens of billions of dollars, right?
If I made so much, I would donate all of it. I would not be concerned about tens of billions of dollars. As for donating 100 yuan, forget it. After all, I really have...
Once something goes too far beyond the scope of public knowledge, the general public will not even be too surprised. After all, it is too illusory.
It's not even as real as winning the first prize in the lottery... Well, the latter sounds more illusory (funny).
Ahem, this matter, whether in overseas or domestic investment industries, undoubtedly set off a huge wave, directly pushing Zhou Dongsheng to the forefront of the world.
Even before this, the three words "Zhou Dongsheng" were an extremely unfamiliar name to most of them, but it did not delay them from establishing a preliminary understanding of it from this moment on.
After all, no matter which name it is, it can be linked to the achievement of collecting tens of billions of dollars in a year, which will undoubtedly attract the attention of many institutions. No one in the world will choose to live with money, right?
What's more, capital never sleeps, let alone the New Year's Eve or the so-called New Year's Day holiday. Even if it is the Christmas holiday overseas or the Chinese New Year, it is impossible to stop capital's desire for profits!
Especially when the rumor that Zhou Dongsheng retired from the currency circle with tens of billions of dollars was exposed, Bitcoin, which had been unable to survive after breaking through 20,000 dollars, triggered a round of panic selling.
It almost buried some institutions that had not yet completed their escape, and had to spend money out of their own pockets to forcibly restore the market sentiment.
However, the short sellers who appeared after smelling the smell would not give up such an excellent opportunity. The two sides once again broke out into a large-scale chaotic battle.
Secretly, you can't even tell the difference between friend and foe...
However, Zhou Dongsheng, as the instigator, is undoubtedly remembered by many people!
You are noble, you are amazing, you made tens of billions of dollars and walked away, leaving us such a huge mess...
But even if they were itching with hatred, they could do nothing about it. After all, Zhou Dongsheng's textbook-level operations could be said to have perfectly timed the timing.
In particular, although the scale of tens of billions of dollars is astonishing, it is also very subtly stuck at the ambiguous junction.
Although this piece of cake is tempting enough, taking unconventional measures such as "unplugging the network cable" simply for this piece of cake seems to be a bit outweighing the gains and losses.
Especially at this point in time, the commander-in-chief has just established his position and is not ready to target the other side of the ocean. Therefore, there is naturally no reason to suddenly launch an attack.
If it comes to a sensitive time in the second half of the year, then there's no telling. Maybe Zhou Dongsheng, who is so promising, will be used for surgery...
There is no doubt that Zhou Dongsheng took this opportunity to become famous in one battle and made a splash all over the world. It can be said that he has truly made a name for himself.
Of course, gaining both fame and fortune also means that Zhou Dongsheng will attract more attention from interested people. If such a big fat piece of meat continues to hang around in the market, he will probably attract the attention of some jackals, tigers and leopards.
But, as the saying goes, misfortunes are where blessings depend, and blessings are where misfortunes lie. Misfortunes and misfortunes are not only relative, they can also transform into each other.
Especially as Zhou Dongsheng became famous, whether it was domestic Dongsheng Investment or Dongsheng Overseas Fund, this threshold was almost trampled by various institutions that came to visit him.
With the clear example of Duan Yongping, many institutions are scrambling to be the investor. After all, no one wants to miss the opportunity to make money while lying down.
Even if you don't eat as much meat as the first crab eater, it's still great to be able to drink soup.
For Zhou Dongsheng, things always have priorities. After finishing the New Year's Eve awards banquet of the Golden Second Awards, he can be free to deal with this matter.
Among them, the overseas funds are naturally left to Lu Sifang for the time being, and Mr. Duan can also be asked to negotiate if necessary.
After all, whether it is friction between China and the United States or the subsequent escalation of the trade war, it is a major issue that Zhou Dongsheng has to seriously consider.
If this kind of thing is placed in the capital market, it is very likely to trigger a "black swan" event, which will then produce a series of chain reactions.
For this reason, even Zhou Dongsheng must seriously consider the risks in this regard.
If you are not careful, you may have great success one second, but you may be ruined the next second. This is often the case in the capital market, where you think about heaven and hell.
However, even if it is operated in the most prudent way and using the well-known blue-chip stocks around the world as the target of building positions, it must be possible to create considerable profits.
And it charges high management fees and dividends! It is indeed a sure-fire deal!
In addition to the secondary market, continuing to implement the investment strategy in the primary market is undoubtedly the safest choice. If you don't talk about anything else, you only need to continue to add positions to the projects you hold, which is enough to digest the massive funds.
After all, every rapidly developing project is undoubtedly a money-burning machine, especially for a group of companies that are on the right track.
Only by burning money can we continue to increase speed and surpass competitors, until we can firmly hold the top position in the industry under the influence of the Matthew Effect!
This is undoubtedly the objective law followed by the development of most industries. Capital only plays the role of catalyst.
And seeing that Pinxixi and Douyin, the two major platforms, have successively completed more than 1 billion U.S. dollars in financing, and Dongsheng Investment has other projects in its hands, this idea naturally became active.
As the saying goes, children who cry are fed by milk. If you are in need, you will naturally ask for money from the father who is the donor.
After all, if he doesn’t say anything, how will the sponsor’s father know whether he wants to pinch him or not? (Funny)
Therefore, not only major institutions came to us wanting to be investors, but also a number of entrepreneurs came to us to seek financing.
Countless entrepreneurial projects of various types have been delivered to the mailbox of Dongsheng Investment Company, which has indeed added a lot of workload to the migrant workers.
Only the projects that are finally retained after layers of screening will be handed over to Zhou Dongsheng for him to make the final decision.
Even if he now has abundant financial resources, Zhou Dongsheng would naturally not choose to be taken advantage of by throwing away money. If he simply wants to burn money, there are plenty of more meaningful things to do.
And so many things came together, even though he had a group of capable people under him, and Li Jiana, his personal assistant, helped sort out and share the burden, it still gave Zhou Dongsheng a solid understanding of what it means to have a big family and a big business!
So much so that Zhou Dongsheng had to seriously consider again whether it was necessary to expand the management of Dongsheng Group again and recruit a few more professional managers to share the work for him and to check and balance each other.
Just be a director (ji), a secretary (xiang), a director (wu) honestly...
"Chairman, regarding the first annual meeting since the establishment of the group, this is a preliminary plan drawn up after discussion by the management. Please take a look at it."
Li Jiana is dedicated to her duties and reports her work meticulously. Her figure wrapped in professional attire is still flawless.
"Oh? That's interesting. With the size of our group now, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort this year. However, we have really worked hard in the past year, so let's take this opportunity to reward all the employees."
"Just do it according to this highest standard, money is not an issue." Zhou Dongsheng glanced at the budget in the plan and said calmly.
After all, the cash flow of Dongsheng Group is too abundant now, so it has to find a way to spend some of it, and holding a grand annual meeting is also a worthwhile choice.
After all, this is also the first annual meeting of Dongsheng Group. If done well, it will also play a certain role in improving the cohesion of the group...
After thinking about it, Zhou Dongsheng seemed to realize something and looked around, especially the Oriental Pearl Tower, which was unobstructed outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window. It can be said that the view is excellent...
However, I always feel that something is missing. Although Dongsheng Group has only been established for a short period of time, judging from the current market value of the group of more than 10 billion US dollars, it seems that it is time to find a headquarters building!
It just so happens that I have a lot of money and no place to spend it. It won’t be a loss if I invest in some real estate. Even if I go bankrupt, I can still be a “landlord”, right?
It's just that things like the headquarters building still need to be carefully considered in the long term. Whether it is the choice of city or location, or whether to buy or build it yourself, it is a major focus of the group's strategy.
As you can see, many companies with strong development momentum are either trying to get it right in one step, taking too big a step, or are too optimistic about the future, resulting in a break in the capital chain due to problems with the headquarters building...
Zhou Dongsheng touched his chin, wondering if there was a chance to make a ready-made profit. After all, he had cash in hand now, and Yida, which had not yet recovered from the crisis, was undoubtedly short of cash!
