"Yes, Lippo Group offered US$100 million. The other dozen major groups have not responded to me yet."
That day on the yacht, a large group of third-generation rich people clamored to invest in Ruixiang Industrial Fund. It had been several days and nothing had happened yet.
Zhang Yida is not afraid that they will let him go. After all, Libao Group was the first to take the lead in investing US$100 million. As long as other consortiums are not stupid, they should also show their support.
Compared with money, Zhang Yida values the personal connections of major financial groups in various Southeast Asian countries.
Huang Zhiyuan remained silent. US$100 million is just a drop in the bucket for Sinar Mas Group, which has assets of more than US$20 billion.
But he is different from Li Wenzheng. Li Wenzheng is a banker, and he is an industrialist.
Jinguang Group has six core industries: pulp and paper industry, financial industry, agriculture and food processing industry, real estate industry, coal mining, and mobile communications.
The most important business is the paper industry, and Sinar Mas Group is currently heading towards the top three positions in the world.
Although US$100 million was not much, he had to consider it carefully. He asked Zhang Yida: "Yida, you are so optimistic about the Internet economy in Southeast Asia, have you ever considered an exit channel?"
"Exit through mergers and acquisitions, or go public in the United States. In the former, domestic BATs have been investing heavily overseas, and local Internet companies in Southeast Asia will definitely set off a merger and acquisition boom when they grow;
In the case of the latter, just like Chinese Internet companies, they will all go public in the United States."
Huang Zhiyuan nodded slightly and asked: "Southeast Asia has only a population of more than 600 million, distributed in 11 countries. Is there a chance that companies like Ali and Penguin will be born?"
"The valuation or market value will definitely not reach that high." Zhang Yida shook his head and said: "But it is definitely possible for Internet companies to emerge with billions or even tens of billions of dollars."
“Currently, in the Southeast Asian market, most Internet startups are valued at tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, with room for growth of ten times or even dozens of times.
Ruixiang may not be able to invest in these high-return projects, but a number of successful Internet listed companies will definitely emerge throughout Southeast Asia."
Huang Zhiyuan had read Zhang Yida's information, including some of the companies Ruixiang invested in. He smiled and said:
"You are so humble. Your investment vision is very good. Whether it is domestic China or the Southeast Asian market, all the companies you invest in are potential stocks."
"Let's see. Sinar Mas Group also offers 100 million US dollars. I hope you don't think it's too little. Mr. Li Wenzheng is my senior, so I can't overshadow him."
Huang Xiwen hesitated to speak. He wanted to invest US$200 million, but with Zhang Yida present, it was difficult to question his father.
"I am very grateful to the senior senior for supporting me and Ruixiang. US$100 million is a lot. Sometimes there are too many funds, which makes it inconvenient for the fund's operation."
The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Yida added: "I also have an e-commerce company called Pinduoduo under my name. If it is convenient, I would like to cooperate with Jinguang Group on household paper, stationery, edible oil, agricultural products, food, etc.
Some cooperation has been reached in several areas."
"Is it that e-commerce company that does group shopping?" Huang Zhiyuan added: "The model is quite novel. After the order is completed, the order is placed together with the factory."
Zhang Yida secretly thought that he must have studied his own industry too thoroughly! But think about it, if he invested 100 million US dollars in himself while talking and laughing, how could he not study himself clearly?
"Yes, we are currently very happy to cooperate with Kexinrou tissue paper, and the online sales are very good. If Sinar Mas Group can jointly design one or two high-quality and low-priced paper towels with us, the sales volume should not be bad."
Huang Zhiyuan smiled and said: "No problem, I will arrange for the president of Sinar Mas Group China to contact you Pinduoduo."
"Okay, thank you very much, senior senior."
Zhang Yida is very happy. Qingfeng tissue under Jinguang Group is famous. If Pinduoduo can develop one or two tissue with them, it will definitely be another hot product.
"By the way, my father still wants to see you. But he is not in good health, so he bothered Yida to take two more steps." Huang Zhiyuan said suddenly.
Zhang Yida smiled and said: "It's okay. It's my honor to be able to meet Mr. Huang."
Several people walked through some buildings in the manor and came to a healing room.
Entering the room, Zhang Yida saw an old man leaning half on the hospital bed. He was not very energetic, and several private nurses were still doing various tests on him.
"Dad, Mr. Zhang Yida is here." Huang Zhiyuan said in Minnan dialect.
"Who? Who is here?" Huang Yicong was a bit deaf and kept asking questions.
Huang Zhiyuan leaned into Huang Yicong's ear and said: "Mr. Zhang Yida from Mainland China."
Now Huang Yicong understood. He opened the quilt and was about to get up. Everyone quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"Hello, Mr. Huang, I am Zhang Yida from mainland China. I came to Indonesia to do business. I stopped by to visit you."
Zhang Yida bowed to Huang Yicong and said with a smile.
"Okay." Huang Yicong turned to look at Huang Zhiyuan and said, "Boss, this young man is from the motherland and is not familiar with Indonesia. You have to take more care of him."
Huang Zhiyuan smiled, why does he need our care? He is the one who takes care of us!
Huang Zhiyuan said to Zhang Yida: "My father is old and his memory is not very good. Yida, please be more understanding."
Zhang Yida nodded towards him. Zhang Yida was also a little emotional about the 95-year-old man on the old man's bed.
This old man really has great wisdom. The Bandung Conference embraced Premier Zhou, and in 1960 he sent his eldest son back to his motherland to study at university.
His eldest son, Huang Zhiyuan, was recommended by Premier Zhou to enter Beijing University.
After the reform, Sinar Mas Group invested heavily in mainland China, making it the largest investment among overseas Chinese enterprises, and the largest contribution to the charity of the motherland among overseas Chinese enterprises.
Even if the foundation in Indonesia collapses, there is still a way out in the mainland. The total assets of the Sinar Mas Group in mainland China alone exceed 100 billion.
Huang Yicong held Zhang Yida's hand and asked: "Young man, where is your hometown?"
"I am from Sichuan."
"Sichuan and Sichuan are great, a land of abundance. Unlike my hometown in Fujian Province, when I was 9 years old, I followed my father to Nanyang to seek life..."
Zhang Yida was also very emotional when he listened to the old man narrating his past experiences.
At that time in China, there was war and chaos, and countless people from Fujian and Guangdong provinces traveled across the ocean to Nanyang in order to make a living.
The exploitation of European and American colonists and the hatred of the indigenous people did not defeat this group of hard-working Chinese who dared to challenge and take risks.
From traveling to Southeast Asia with a straw mat to a business empire worth hundreds of billions, it is simply a business legend.
In fact, the political turmoil and the instability of the current situation have made it difficult for overseas Chinese to develop in the local area.
However, since its establishment, the Sinar Mas Group has always attached its business tentacles closely to the people's livelihood economy related to people's food, clothing and clothing. Therefore, in a sense, the development of Sinar Mas Group can also be said to be a break in troubled times.
Strolling through the courtyard.
This is what Zhang Yida admires most, foresight! Industrial groups like Sinar Mas Group are much more resistant to risks than Internet groups and financial groups.
After listening to the old gentleman speak for more than half an hour, Zhang Yida did not show any signs of impatience even though there were many repetitions in his words and even mixed with the Fujian dialect. Instead, he listened with great interest.
Huang Xiwen looked at it and gave a wry smile. Grandpa was unconscious. He thought Zhang Yida was himself.
While talking, Huang Yicong actually fell asleep...
Zhang Yida and others left the sanatorium, and Huang Zhiyuan persuaded Zhang Yida to stay and had a dinner together at home.
While eating, Zhang Yida couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling when he saw the dozens of members of the Huang family. This is really a chaebol. If you were an ordinary person, you would be starved for food.
Mr. Huang Yicong has six sons and two daughters, and his children are spreading. The eldest fourth-generation eldest son and granddaughter Huang Feixi is one year older than Zhang Yida, and she is 22 years old this year.
Li Wenzheng's family has a larger population, nearly 100 people. His wife requires that each child should preferably have 6 children, but at least 4.
"This is Mr. Zhang Yida from mainland China, the chairman of Ruixiang Financial Technology Group."
Huang Zhiyuan introduced Zhang Yida to his brothers, sisters, children, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, great-nephews and great-nieces.
Several children in their teens looked at the guest Zhang Yida curiously, but it was different with adults. Many people knew that Zhang Yida was such a number one person.
Even those who didn’t know Zhang Yida, the people around him came over to give him some knowledge.
Zhang Yida looked at dozens of pairs of eyes looking at him. Fortunately, he was used to big scenes, otherwise he would have been embarrassed. He greeted everyone: "Gentlemen, ladies, and children, good evening everyone!"
All the children laughed, and an old man in his 60s stood up, shook hands with Zhang Yida, and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am Huang Hongnian."
"Hello, Mr. Huang, nice to meet you."
Zhang Yida's eyes lit up, he was also a legend.
When he was 12 years old, he was sent to China by Mr. Huang Yicong to study. In the 1960s, the rich second generation went to work as an educated youth...
It is said that he may be the only overseas Chinese who has experienced educated youth going to the countryside...
However, this hard life also trained him. When he grew up, with his elder brother at his side and unable to inherit much of the family business, he went on his own to speculate in real estate in the United States, Singapore and other places, and made a lot of money.
In 1992, he did something that shocked the world. Within one year, he spent more than 10 billion to acquire 200 state-owned enterprises in China and formed the China Strategy Group.
Merge the acquired factories, then package them for listing in the United States, Canada and other places for financing, and then bring the funds to China to expand construction.
In 2000, he sold a shell company called Dejiaxin to Li Zekai. Li Zekai injected his Yingdong Digital assets into the shell company, and then formed PCCW, with a market value of 560 billion Hong Kong dollars at one time.
With his help, Li Zekai made tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars and cut a lot of leeks...
This is a master who is extremely good at capital operation!
