The news that Pate Holdings has moved to Chengdu still has a big impact on the Haiding government.
Although it is located in Zhongguancun, there are many well-known Internet companies in the area.
But Ruixiang and Zhonghe, two super unicorns that have grown up, do not want to give up, and they cannot give up!
There are penguins in Pengcheng, Ahli in Lin'an, and in the capital... Qiandu seems not enough.
Whether it is to maintain Zhongguancun's status as "China's Silicon Valley" or for tax purposes, they must keep Ruixiang and Zhonghe.
The Haiding government and the Beijing government arranged a work inspection of Ruixiang and Zhonghe as quickly as possible.
During the visit and survey, the leaders highly affirmed the business achievements achieved by Ruixiang and Zhonghe, and encouraged Ruixiang and Zhonghe to overcome all difficulties and build the two companies into benchmark Internet companies in Beijing and famous Chinese brands.
When the leader asked what difficulties he had, Zhang Yida complained appropriately: "Zhonghe Group currently has more than 30,000 employees, although more than half of them are scattered in other cities across the country and overseas.
But the more than 10,000 people staying in the capital also put a certain amount of pressure on our office.
Various subsidiaries are scattered in different buildings, and sometimes communication is not so convenient."
The leader nodded slightly. He finally understood what Zhang Yida meant, which was that he wanted to build a headquarters building on land.
As for why you don’t buy a ready-made building, you may want to build it yourself to be more economical and affordable.
A week later, the Beijing City and Haiding District Government expressed their attention and concern for Zhonghe Group and allocated two pieces of land in Northwest Wang to Zhonghe Group.
The two pieces of land are connected together, covering an area of 120 acres. Not far from it is the Penguin Capital headquarters, where Qiandu, Lenovo, Sina, NetEase and other companies are also concentrated here.
Zhang Yida is very satisfied with this piece of land. It is closer to everyone and it will be more convenient to dig corners.
Of course, it is also very convenient for other giants to poach people from Zhonghe Group, so everyone depends on their own abilities.
Standing on the open space allocated by the government to Zhonghe Group, Zhang Yida looked at the Penguin Capital headquarters that was about to be completed not far away and felt that it was quite well built.
The zigzag-shaped building covers an area of more than 70,000 square meters, with a single floor area of 28,000 square meters and a total of 7 floors. It is known as one of the largest office buildings in the world.
Zhang Yida turned to ask Lu Qi beside him: "Old Lu, what style of building do you think we should build?"
Lu Qi laughed, "The headquarters building is also one of the images we display to the outside world. It can also strengthen employees' confidence and sense of belonging to the company.
Professional matters should still be left to professionals. Many well-known foreign architectural design firms have already been communicating with us, and it will not take long for the first draft of the design to be produced.
When the time comes, it will be up to you, Mr. Zhang, to choose it yourself!"
Zhang Yida nodded and didn't take it too seriously. As long as it's not ugly and doesn't look weird like the "Sophie Building" or the "Air Conditioning Fan Building", it'll be fine.
That is to say, he is short of money, otherwise he would also want to be extravagant.
Apple's $5 billion "Super Donut" is rumored to be magical. Working there is no less than giving employees a show-off buff. 996 or 007 would probably be just as excited to work.

"Hanzhou Securities 10.8 billion yuan, Hantai Fund 3 billion yuan, Hanzhou Futures 350 million yuan."
After various due diligence and financial audits by the due diligence team, the value of the three assets to be sold by Handing Group has also been evaluated.
Since Ruixiang Group holds 49% of the shares of Hanzhou Securities and Hantai Fund, the final purchase price was set at RMB 7.388 billion.
Regarding this price, Zhang Yida did not hesitate too much and directly agreed to it. All of them have been verified repeatedly, and the data can withstand scrutiny.
At the signing ceremony, after Hu Gang finished signing, he said to Zhang Yida with a smile on his face: "Thank you, brother Yida. You have helped us a lot and solved the urgent need of Handing Group."
Wang Xiaojie also said: "Yes, I hope there will be opportunities in the future to cooperate with the Yida brothers again."
Zhang Yida smiled and nodded, knowing that this was just a modest gesture. Even if he didn't buy it, this financial license would still be a hot commodity on the market.
However, the fact that Ruixiang paid quickly did help Handing Group a lot.
After Handing Group fell into a debt crisis, its PE companies have recently been frantically selling off more than a dozen A-share listed companies.
With more than 7 billion from Ruixiang Pay, Handing Group can be more relaxed in its subsequent reduction of holdings.
In five years, from a valuation of 20 million to a total assets and market value of 100 billion, it must be said that Handing Group is really familiar with the operation methods of China's capital market.
But this leveraged expansion has now also encountered backlash.
However, no matter how much assets are sold off, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Hu Gang and Wang Xiaojie are still rich, but it is a pity that they are large A-share investors.
Enter a Porsche and come out a Porsche.

2018 is an important turning point for most financial companies.
In the middle of last year, regulatory agencies had already set the tone regarding the supervision of financial holdings: the financial industry must operate with a license, must be included in supervision, and must achieve full supervision coverage.
What is financial holding?
The chief analyst of the Bank of Communications has made a definition: companies that have licenses in two or more financial fields such as banking, securities, insurance, funds, trusts, futures, and financial leasing, and actually operate or actually control enterprises in the industry, all belong to the financial sector.
holding company.
Although Ruixiang has a reputation for digital technology, at its core it is indeed a financial holding group.
The central bank has been screening the list of financial holding groups recently. Ruixiang, Leech Financial Services Group, and Suning are all working hard to be selected into the first batch of financial holding pilot lists.
Zhang Yida attached great importance to this matter.
Although Ruixiang is transforming into the field of digital technology, the time is still short and it has not made any major breakthroughs. It relies heavily on the blood transfusion of its financial business.
Leech Financial Services Group is similar. It flaunts digital technology for the purpose of valuation, and its biggest source of profit is lending.
Lending has also been hampered recently. Leech Financial Services Group was criticized for having too high leverage, exceeding the leverage ratio of the Internet small loan license. Leech Financial Services Group quickly increased capital for the small loan company.
Ruixiang received the news here, and in addition to using Internet small loans, Jincheng Consumer Finance, and Xingwang Bank to lend, he is also actively contacting various banks.
The future cooperation method will change to Ruixiang and major banks jointly investing funds and jointly lending.
The source of income is not called interest, it is called technical service fees. This trick is learned from Leech Financial Services, not to sound good, but to get closer to the label of "technology".
While applying for the financial holding pilot program and de-financializing at the same time, life is still a bit miserable.
Just when Zhang Yida was busy with everything, Yimindai gave him another obstacle.
