Special troubles of rebirth

Early the next morning, Guo Yuan took Chu Sisi and Zhou Aiqing to work on the three things arranged by Wang Yu.

After having free time, Wang Yu started to travel as a backpacker, taking his two bodyguards Chi Guocai and Mu Shaofeng with him.

This trip lasted three days. If Bruce hadn't called him to make an appointment, Wang Yu, who had just finished visiting the east coast, might have taken his own private jet to a farther place.

"Mr. King, I really envy your relaxed state of mind!"

In the villa, I saw Wang Yu who had just returned from the dusty scene and had just taken a shower. Bruce, who was also wearing a beach suit, smiled and shook hands with him.

"The last few times I came here were just short stops. It's rare that I have free time this time to walk around and look around."

Wang Yu signaled Bruce to be casual and sat on the beach chair: "I originally wanted to rent a boat and go fishing in the Atlantic Ocean, but it's a pity that it's not the tuna fishing season."

"If Mr. Wang is really interested, there is nothing we can do."

Bruce smiled and said: "The rules are made for ordinary people. For people like us, there will always be a way."

Waving his hand, Wang Yu took out a cigar and lit it: "No need, it's just a little hobby. People must learn to restrain their desires!"

"No wonder you are so successful."

Bruce looked at Wang Yu and exclaimed: "I have had a preliminary understanding of Mr. Wang's industries in the past two days. I didn't expect that you are still one of the leaders in China's Internet industry, especially your main industry engine technology. There are many hidden things below. Few future unicorn companies”

"Compared to Alibaba and Tencent, my current scale is still far behind. The so-called leader is just a way of saying it to save face."

Wang Yu said humbly: "In fact, the real big guys make decisions before taking action. They first look at the novel thinking and entrepreneurial direction of the younger generation. Once the track matures, they can then squeeze in with huge financial resources and manpower. In the end, the big guys are still Boss, we pioneers can only seize the opportunity and drink some soup."

"Mr. Wang's way of thinking has some traces of reverse thinking."

Bruce laughed and said: "It's not exactly like what you said. First movers have the advantage of being the first. As long as they get enough funding and network support, they can still become industry leaders."

“Like Facebook?”

Wang Yu responded while smoking a cigar: "But once entrepreneurs like Zuckerberg lose their myth, they will still be ousted by the board of directors behind them, just like Lao Qiao. How many times have they been kicked out?"

The chat between the two seemed relaxed and happy, but in fact there was always something hidden behind the scenes.

After initial testing, both Wang Yu and Bruce discovered that the other party was a master, so they stopped beating around the bush.

"I came here mainly for investment."

Bruce put aside the twists and turns and went straight to the topic: "Whether it is a shared bicycle project or an orange delivery project, Goldman Sachs is very interested. We have no shortage of funds and connections. We are definitely a worthy partner for you. "

Wang Yu smiled noncommittally and did not reply directly to Bruce. Instead, he asked about something else.

"I heard you introduce me at the previous reception that you have been in Europe for the first half of the year?"

Bruce was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why Wang Yu had to go around the bush. It was clear that through the test just now, everyone understood the truth. They are all smart people, and it would be easier to communicate directly.

But seeing Wang Yu's serious expression, he still shrugged his shoulders and said: "Didn't Mr. Wang say that night, the economic situation over there doesn't seem to be that good. I can tell you very clearly: there is a crisis over there in Europe." A crisis is brewing, and after the crisis it will be devastated, and there will always be some good unlucky ones picked up!"

Nodding, Wang Yu thought to himself that he had guessed something right.

"I still have certain expectations for cooperation with Goldman Sachs."

Next, Wang Yu began to make his own requests: "I actually have one more expected thing I want to take care of during my trip to the United States."

Bruce raised the corners of his mouth, with a genuine smile on his face.

"Mr. Wang, I said that Goldman Sachs intends to participate in the two projects of shared bicycles and fruit delivery. We have always been enthusiastic and generous in helping our partners."

"I want to acquire a small car company!"

This time it was Wang Yu's turn to be direct: "But there is no way."

"In my impression, there are quite a few joint venture car companies in China, right?"

Bruce is worthy of being an executive of Goldman Sachs investment bank: "I remember Volkswagen of Germany, General Motors of the United States, and Hyundai of the United States. Especially Toyota and Honda in the small days. With all due respect, Mr. Wang, you want to get involved in car production now, the time is a bit late. Alright?"

"I have no intention of becoming a car giant."

Wang Yu smiled: "In my plan, as long as the new company after the acquisition forms a new brand product and occupies even a small share in the Chinese market, large car companies will naturally come to acquire it!"

Building cars is no joke, and Bruce still thinks Wang Yu's idea is too taken for granted.

"What if you pick up a bad guy cheaply?"

Bruce: "."

After being stunned for several minutes, the Goldman Sachs investment bank executive came back to his senses. At this time, the disapproval he looked at Wang Yu was no longer the same.

"It turns out that you didn't ask me about Europe unintentionally!"

Bruce connected the two paragraphs of the chat with Wang Yu just now, and then understood the meaning of Wang Yu's words.

Since there is an economic crisis brewing in Europe, and Bruce is waiting there to take advantage of it, why can't the name of a small bankrupt car company be added to the list?

"Now I kind of understand why Renard feels both love and hate for you."

At this moment, Bruce said with a slightly exaggerated smile: "I can always think of the most suitable solution to the problem from an unexpected angle, and this solution is actually hard to refuse!"

"Look, don't we have a common topic for cooperation?"

Wang Yu flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said with a smile on his face: "Let's ride the wealth train heading to Southeast Asia together. Considering the bad mood of our partners feeling the loss of profits, Goldman Sachs will grant me a small wish by the way. I can make up for it at home.”

"Hahaha"

After hearing Wang Yu's almost self-deprecating statement, Bruce burst out laughing: "Mr. Wang, your idea is definitely feasible!"

"So how big a piece of cake do you want to get?"

Now that the prerequisites have been met, Wang Yu started to talk about the most practical things: "You know, in Mobike (Southeast Asia) Technology, IDG occupies 70% of the equity. How much equity can be released to raise funds? Renard opinions matter.”

"If we only discuss the investment banking business, IDG does not need to accommodate us at Goldman Sachs, but don't forget that this time we are entering the Southeast Asian market. In terms of external relations, there is definitely a big gap between IDG and us. Renard must also do this. To admit it.”

Bruce had a look of confidence on his face: "So not only will he consider your opinions, he will definitely not ignore our opinions!"

By saying this, he simply regarded himself as a collaborator, otherwise how could he say this?
