For example, last year, the entire China Investment Group made a total profit of US$10.5 billion, of which US$3.5 billion was contributed by her, accounting for more than 30% of the total profit rate!
Her performance was so good that it threatened her position as chief investment officer. The chief investment officer has been trying her best to suppress Shangguan Meixue in the past six months. Her investment suggestions have been rejected several times, which made her very angry.
The chief investment officer's surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Jue. He once held an important position on Wall Street, has rich investment experience, and has a brilliant record. Several funds he operates have performed well, with an average profit rate of more than 8%.
However, since joining China Investment Group, his investment income performance has been mediocre, and his profitability is no better than that of his predecessor, or even worse. In the past two years, had it not been for the eye-catching performance of Shangguan Meixue and another newcomer investment officer,
He couldn't even explain it to the three directors.
The new investment officer's name is Lu Xiaofeng. He is currently a first-level investment officer and is sitting opposite Shangguan Meixue. He actually took over the conversation at this time and said: "Chief officer, my opinion is different from the chief officer. I am very optimistic about it."
this project."
Shangguan Meixue was stunned. This guy Lu Xiaofeng has always been against her, so why did he change his gender today? No! This thing is so weird! She suddenly became cautious and her brain worked quickly to avoid being fooled.
The muscles in the corners of the chief investment officer's eyes twitched. He had promoted this Lu Xiaofeng, and now he has turned against him? He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "Lu Xiaofeng, tell me your reasons."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled slightly, stood up and said: "Chief Officer, three directors, colleagues. There are three reasons why I say this is a good investment project. First, the postal express network is very complete, covering all villages and towns.
, this is unmatched by any express company; secondly, we are currently in an era of explosion of online businesses, with the total online transactions reaching two trillion every year! In this context, if we do not seize the opportunity, the opportunity will
will be robbed by others; thirdly, I believe in Shangguan Meixue's vision. Her investment has never been a loss, because her partner is always the same, and that is Tianxing Investment Company."
Shangguan Meixue narrowed her eyes. It seemed that Lu Xiaofeng was investigating her a lot! But she said nothing and waited to see what happened, because she still didn't know whether Lu Xiaofeng had any malicious intentions.
Lu Xiaofeng continued: "Tianxing Investment Company has strong funds. I have checked its investment record and there has been no failed investment. If we can cooperate with it, we will definitely be able to win large logistics projects and build the largest logistics company in the country and even the world."
The largest logistics company!”
The three directors were shocked and a little moved. They were the heads of China Investment Group, and the investment officers were just working for them. So at this time, even Yang Jue didn't say anything, waiting for the directors' opinions.
The three directors looked at each other with calm expressions. They are all extraordinary people to be able to sit in these positions. In terms of official positions, they are senior officials at the ministerial level, and in terms of experience, they have participated in the country's macroeconomic planning.
One of the three directors was named Zhong, one was named Min, and the other was named Cao. Director Zhong was a fat man in his sixties. He smiled and said: "This is a long-term investment of tens of billions of dollars, and it is very possible."
With subsequent additional investment, the final investment amount may reach 40 billion, 50 billion, or even more. Therefore, we must consider this matter carefully and not be hasty."
Shangguan Meixue finally spoke. She stood up and said: "Any investment has risks. If you refuse to invest because of the risks, then there will be no need for China Investment Group to exist. I understand the concerns of the three directors. You are worried that the risks are too great."
But what I want to say is that even private capital is working on the big logistics project, and judging from the current market response, as long as we do it, the possibility of failure is very small. Because we have strong funds and first-class management
, this is incomparable to private capital.”
"I don't think so!" Yang Jue said to the three directors, "Shangguan Meixue's plan states that the initial investment for this project alone is US$30 billion, and the total investment is likely to exceed US$200 billion!
The amount of investment is really too big and the risk is high! So I think that even if you really invest, you have to be very cautious and consult experts for extensive verification before proceeding."
Shangguan Meixue sneered and said: "We are investment officers! If we don't believe in our own judgment, what should we do as investment officers? I repeat, investment has risks! Giving up investment because of risks is a waste of time."
At this point, a hint of sarcasm appeared on her lips: "Speaking of risks, I have to mention one thing. In the past five years, the chief executive has invested heavily in a large number of oil and iron ore companies in Africa, Australia, North and South. What is the effect?
?The total investment in these projects exceeds 60 billion US dollars! Looking back now, it seems that not even a single institution is profitable, and two of them are on the verge of bankruptcy."
Yang Jue was caught to the point of pain, and suddenly became angry. He slammed the table and shouted: "That's called strategic investment! Our country has always been in a passive position when it comes to the import of oil and iron ore. We can't acquire companies outside."
OK?"
Shangguan Meixue sighed and said: "National strategy is important, but we can't ignore profits and losses, right? The money lost by those companies can buy more oil and iron ore in the world market. Which one is more cost-effective?
You and I both know it."
Director Min waved his hand and said: "Okay, no need to argue. We will seriously consider this matter."
Shangguan Meixue said: "Director Min, I have invited Ms. Ge, the executive director of Tianxing Investment Group, do you want to meet him?"
"Is it right here?" Director Cao asked.
"Yes, Ms. Ge is outside. If it is convenient, she can come in immediately. Ms. Ge will show the strength and background of Tianxing Investment to the three directors. In addition, he will also come to another cooperation project. I think the three directors
Would be interested."
The three directors discussed with each other, and Director Cao said: "Okay, let's meet Ms. Ge."
Ge Xiaoxian walked into the office unhurriedly. She was wearing a professional uniform, with outstanding appearance and elegant temperament, which made everyone shine. She walked to the side of the U-shaped conference table, smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "I am Tianxing
Ge Xiaoxian, the executive director of the investment, is pleased to meet you all."
Director Min said: "I have heard of you for a long time. Many of our investment projects at China Investment are in cooperation with your group. I would like to thank your company for bringing benefits to the group and welcome Ms. Ge's arrival."
Ge Xiaoxian: "We all work together to achieve win-win results. There is no need to thank you enough. I came here this time just to talk about the construction of large-scale logistics with the three bosses."
The three directors nodded one after another: "Okay, we also want to know more about this project."
Ge Xiaoxian took out a piece of information and distributed it to everyone present, saying: "Today I am not here to be a lobbyist. I am just laying out the advantages. I think the bosses will make the most correct judgment."
Shangguan Meixue said: "Xiaoxian, we can talk about the main topic now."
Ge Xiaoxian nodded and said: "To see whether a company is successful, it depends on several aspects. The first is funding and team. In terms of funding, Tianxing Investment Company received a low-interest loan from the Swiss Shennong Bank, with a maximum loan amount of 80 billion.
USD. In terms of team, Tianxing Investment Company has rich investment experience, excellent management team, and advanced corporate culture. We are better than any of our peers!"
"Wait! What kind of company are you talking about Shennong Bank? It is a foreign bank, why would it lend to you? And the maximum amount is 80 billion. We doubt this!" Yang Jue said loudly.
Ge Xiaoxian glanced at him and said: "Shennong Bank is a bank opened by a French-Chinese with a registered capital of 20 billion U.S. dollars. Last month, Shennong Bank's savings and loans reached 50 billion U.S. dollars and 2 billion U.S. dollars respectively.
Eight billion U.S. dollars. Because Shennong Bank focuses on traditional savings, it is very popular among depositors, and the number of depositors is currently rising sharply."
"Because Shennong Bank has higher savings interest rates, it has reached cooperation intentions with many large companies in Europe and the United States. Among them, an electronics company in the United States alone is preparing to deposit 100 billion US dollars of corporate funds into Shennong Bank. It is obvious that Shennong Bank is
If it grows rapidly, it will become one of the most influential banks in the world."
Shangguan Meixue said: "The other project I'm talking about refers to Shennong Bank. The group can definitely invest in it!"
The three directors were greatly moved. China Investment Group controlled trillions of dollars in capital. If this money was not used for investment, it would shrink every year and be wasted.
Opening a bank is a highly profitable business. It means taking one group of people's money to earn another group of people's money. It only requires an initial investment. Of course, a successful bank must have mature management experience and business philosophy.
.
If the investment group had its own bank, it could lend out the money to earn interest, which would result in at least a profit of more than 7% every year.
Director Cao said: "We will discuss this matter later. Let's talk about big logistics first."
"Okay. The second aspect is the market. Bosses may not know that Tianxing has a company called Tianwang. Tianwang focuses on consumer reviews and has spent tens of billions to acquire a large number of online sales platforms. It cooperates with Tianwang.
There are countless online merchants, and they will all become potential partners of big logistics."
Director Zhong asked about the key point: "I have heard of Skynet. Its tentacles have extended to all areas of the Internet. It is a giant company. I heard that its slogan is 'let profiteers have no place to hide'. However,
I'm still a little confused, how much business can Skynet bring to future big logistics?"
"Let's put it this way," Ge Xiaoxian said, "Skynet is currently undergoing rapid expansion. In the next three years, it will invest US$30 billion to US$50 billion to acquire e-commerce and search engines, and then integrate them into Skynet.
One of the largest subnets in the system, China Shopping Network."
