I am reborn as a fashionista

Chapter 840 Am I really helpless?

Most misunderstandings and estrangements between people come from inner arrogance.

Why should I explain? If he is my friend, he must understand me. If he doesn't understand me, there is no need to explain.

I didn't do anything wrong in this matter, and it wasn't a big deal. There was no need for him to make a fuss or explain it.

Don't think that a big boss in the business world must have a big picture. Of course he does, but it may not be released to a person who is somewhat jealous in his heart. He may even deliberately and stubbornly embarrass himself at certain times. It must be Why should I cooperate with him if he is doing the opposite.

I say that I am not holding Qi, but in fact I am still more or less holding Qi. Adding the voices of some people next to me will have a slight impact. I can't tell it at ordinary times, but when something reaches a certain critical node At times, such an impact can have subversive results.

This time, it was an obvious example. Rebus did not stop or communicate in time. He subconsciously thought that Wei Tao would and should cooperate automatically.

Xiaomi is in a great situation. As an investor, how can it be disrupted?

In fact, Rebus was worried about Xiaomi's future, but he never showed it. His expectations for Xiaomi's eventual launch were not as high as he imagined.

It’s not that the product isn’t good, it’s not that the market isn’t good, it’s not about recognition and branding. In the final analysis, it’s still about the market. It’s also related to the overvaluation of the last financing. Suddenly it jumped from US$40 billion to US$500 billion. With capital, It has proven to have this potential after entering the market, but what it has shown in the past few years has not met the expectations of some people, and it has not shown the image that a D-round financing project with a valuation of 500 billion should have.

There are many other reasons, but Rebus doesn't dare to decide whether they will all come true. It is precisely because of these various reasons that he does not think it is a problem, and discussions among senior management also do not think it is a problem, so he decided to list the issue. placed on the table.

Many things can be operated, and many things cannot be completely predicted in advance. The company's overall strategy is developing smoothly, and sooner or later it will reach the day of listing. Even if Rebus himself is not willing, capital will push him forward, and even more What's more, he is also an investor himself. He said that Xiaomi is a sentiment, part of it, but not the whole thing.

He thought he didn't need to communicate.

As a result, Wei Tao gave such an answer when asked, which instantly pushed Xiaomi to the forefront. Everyone didn't know what to do? Even Rebus was a little confused and did not respond effectively immediately.

The confusion was followed by anger, and he felt that Wei Tao was causing trouble, but after the development of the situation made him confused, he didn't know what to do? Originally, it was bad news that a major shareholder wanted to "withdraw". If it is a listed company, big bad news can quickly pull down the stock price and make the company's market value evaporate a lot in a short period of time.

This time is a little different. Some people actually think that this is a serial conspiracy. Not only did it not affect Xiaomi's preparations for listing, but it also injected some traffic into it. It actually has the capital to start negotiations. There are more discussions about Xiaomi's listing in the entire industry. , everyone suddenly found that many things were different, and they couldn't tell whether it was the east wind or the west wind.

Whether this Wei Tao is a troublemaker or an X factor, everyone is not sure.

In this invitation, Rebus also wanted to know an accurate answer from Wei Tao. No matter what little thoughts he had in his heart, the two of them would not care about those things without a plan in the face of big issues.

We have been friends for many years. If something really happens, we will definitely help each other, regardless of personal feelings. When it comes to temporary alliances in business wars, having the other party is better than others. When making choices, Wei Tao ranks first in cooperation.

Thinking about it this way, the estrangement in my heart is no longer important. I can't talk about relief after all, it has happened, but I won't think about it deliberately anymore.

Wei Tao didn't think too much about it. In fact, he knew that Xiaomi's big stage in the future was not that big, but he didn't think too much about utilitarianism. In fact, it was not much different. After the listing, more than 400 billion can still be maintained, and it is not what it was back then. Renren, and Ele.me, which is already showing signs of decline, do not see much of a gap between them in his eyes.

You can withdraw, or you can hold. If it can serve as a bridge to maintain the relationship, you can slowly transfer some shares to facilitate Rebus's quick moves; keep a part and continue to maintain the relationship. Multiple friends, multiple paths.

At the beginning, it was a dinner party known as the Anshun Clan. It is estimated that several big bosses were dissatisfied. No matter from every aspect, Wei Tao was inferior, including qualifications, wealth and even influential connections, but he refuted No, he has strong cash flow and is a well-known independent investor. He does not need to be constrained by capital. One person can easily leverage billions of funds for investment.

No one wants to lose such a high-quality 'friend'. You never know when you will need it. Be prepared and have an extra escape route. Why make enemies because of trivial things? Anshun is an Anshun. It is not a big tree that we build ourselves. A big tree and quite comfortable.

………………

In the office, I drank two cups of tea.

Zhengshi revealed in a casual chat that Wei Tao said casually without changing his expression: "If Mr. Lei needs it, I can transfer it for cash. If Mr. Lei needs me to be stable, I will be moved if the price is not outrageous." Under such circumstances, I will continue to hold it, and still compare it with my past commitments. I will add a little more, and even if it exceeds 10%, I will still give priority to Mr. Lei."

Nima.

Having money is such a wayward way.

This was almost everyone's true reaction at the time, including Rebus.

No one doubts that Wei Tao is causing trouble here or deliberately expressing something, nor does he doubt his confidence in saying this. Maoya’s revenue last year, Anshun Entertainment Film and Television’s revenue last year, including Jinfeng Security Company, It's all gone through in everyone's mind.

If in the past few years, Wei Tao had stood at the top of the rich list by cashing out the appreciation of investments, then in the past two years, Maoya under him has developed rapidly, the security company has followed steps, and the film and television entertainment company has soared.

Unknowingly, his industry suddenly surged, and he didn't encounter any of the troubles that more than 90% of companies would encounter during the development process. Looking back at this time, he could surpass Yuan Xuefeng of Yanjing and others. Everyone has made clear arrangements, so that the Zheng family of Xiangjiang can stand in his position, and Mr. Xu Dadao of Yangcheng can support him. Many things have begun to become clear to everyone.

Even if Wei Tao was a grassroots man in the past, he is no longer a grassroots man. He has grown up step by step and has the strength to match his wealth. In addition, both himself and Mao Ya are pushing him to become a rich man at the level of a public figure. According to surveys, his influence among the people even exceeds that of the two Ma Ge. In an era when Internet tycoons are all celebrities and public figures, he It can be said to be a standout, showing the beauty of the trees in the forest vividly.

In the past one or two years, everyone has mostly laughed at his reckless investment, and they no longer talk about him as a lucky man as in the past. After the first pot of gold, he invested and cast a wide net, and he really made a profit. arrive.

Nowadays, many people are studying Wei Tao's investment path. The entire Asian investment banks are using some of his investment cases as models to summarize and study some of the things in them.

After analyzing Wei Tao's personal information, it is now ten centimeters thick and placed on the desks of many investment tycoons.

The more important and powerful it is, the more important it is. Instead of discussing it, the Internet and the public are chasing after his Mao Ya, his entertainment company, and his personal emotional life. Invisibly, the attention paid to his investment has decreased, and this has led to the collective exposure of the previous large investments in biomedical and new energy industries. Instead of someone paying attention and following his lead whenever he makes a move.

This is the disadvantage of star investors, but it seems that there is no problem with him. More and more people say that we cannot understand Wei Tao. It seems that every step he takes is determined by his personality. I can do whatever I want. In this way, it happened that when the results came out, everyone discovered that his willful actions were ultimately successful.

What about this time?

Rebus had to consider this impact. He invited Wei Tao over in order to calm the discussions outside.

He hoped that Wei Tao would be quiet for the time being and that Xiaomi would go on the market. He did not want another unstable factor to exist to promote the entire plan.

Wei Tao spread his hands and looked very indifferent, which made some people who were unhappy with him feel that he deserved to be beaten. After he calmed down, he had to envy him. It is good to be confident. Look at people, Xiaomi here is waiting for him. It was just done casually over there.     This is the confidence and freedom that comes from confidence.

Maoya has no intention of going public, and Anshun Entertainment has no intention of further development. On the contrary, Jinfeng Security Company, which everyone thinks has little development prospects, has begun to expand its international business, and it is under tremendous pressure to make more money.

With a security company, once something goes wrong, once your security makes a mistake or fails, your reputation will be ruined, and the company will be worthless.

Does he like taking risks that much?

The original Maoya and the original Anshun Entertainment seemed to be like this, always dancing on the tip of a knife and walking on a tightrope on a cliff.

Unable to figure it out, Rebus could only sigh secretly. As a child born in the 1980s, his thinking mode is more like that of the child born in the 1990s, and when he is willful, he is more like the child born in the 00s.

Nowadays, someone is taking over Xiaomi's shares, but they won't take over at a high price. Therefore, Wei Tao's immediate promise was enough to make Rebus secretly let out a sigh of relief. He chatted with Wei Tao for more than an hour and had an exquisite meal together in the evening. Fresh Japanese food, the two of them also had a few drinks. There was no one else around, just the two of them.

Reminiscing about the glorious past, it is definitely the best side dish to go with wine. It is very enjoyable to drink. It seems that the two of them have rediscovered the feeling of the past and the trust between each other has returned.

Feelings are just feelings.

It has nothing to do with things, but everything to do with your position. When you reach the level of businessmen like them, it is impossible for you to share your heart and soul with anyone, and it is impossible to be intimate with anyone. Everyone is an alliance of interests, and it is not just superficial. Talk about interests, but interests are definitely the only bridge for communication.

We all have to be responsible for many people, we have to be responsible for a big project, we have to be responsible for our own careers, and to be more straightforward, we have to be responsible for our own wealth. When the time comes to really have a choice, he will not hesitate when given the opportunity and will definitely choose the option that is most beneficial to him.

………………

Zhang Yiming started making headlines, and so did his certain music. Following Maoya's example, Toutiao guided users.

There are many people in the market who want to get a piece of Maoya's pie. Whether it can be done or not, they still have to try it. It is too tempting. A live broadcast to bring goods is enough to make all the big bosses flock to it.

Mahuateng is also working on it. He has enough diversion platform. As long as he does it well, it is not difficult to get some luck from Maoya's bowl. Can he become a rival? Now at least the two bosses will communicate with each other's development. , when they become opposite each other, the connection between the two may gradually decrease.

Zhang Xuhao’s Ele.me has begun to be squeezed by Meituan. The development of the platform is still co-existing, but in the long-term planning of capital, he has completely fallen behind.

At this time, Ali began to exert his strength, began to penetrate, opened his big mouth, and wanted to swallow Hungry Me. Everything was exactly the same as Wei Tao knew the direction of travel. The difference in time was no longer important. The original path would let some people A team of human founders achieves financial freedom - Ele.me still sold at a good high price.

It’s just that the price is far less than the valuation when Wei Tao left. According to current logic, if Alibaba swallows up Ele.me, it may not be able to give Wei Tao the price in his memory, which is a quarter to a third less. , more reasonable.

How much less will not delay the financial freedom of those people. As for Zhang Xuhao, he is destined to be a shooting star and will make a mark in the history of the Internet, but it is not strong enough. He will become the foil of the king star and witness Meituan becoming an Internet giant. And he will be compared with each other countless times until Wang Xing steps on another level, or Wang Xing also falls from the clouds.

Without Shou Shou, Su Hua has become the senior management of Mao Ya, and Pin Xixi is about to be hatched. Wei Tao knows that his name will be talked about again. He is a little hesitant now, whether to continue or not. .

My little notebook is now almost torn apart.

The longer it took for him to be reborn, the more blurry his memories were before he was reborn. Many things he thought he would remember are now impossible to remember. It's understandable, after all, in this world, he is Wei Tao, a billionaire, and no longer Wei Tao, an ordinary wage earner at the bottom of society.

Fortunately, in the small bungalow, I was very foresight and recorded all the memories that I could remember when I was reborn, no matter whether they were useful or useless, in the font of a flying cockroach crawling.

I used to be able to see it, but as time went by, I had to guess a lot when I went to see it. In addition, I deliberately followed the way I like to leave records that make it difficult for others to understand. I rarely go to see it anymore, but every time I go to see it, I will understand. Calm down, not to mention burning incense and bathing, it's almost the same. Find a alone time, by yourself, without anyone disturbing you, and quietly look through an old-fashioned notepad worth a few dollars.

There is no memory of how far new energy and biomedicine can go in the future. The notepad only mentions the beginning of the third period of the 21st century. After encountering a huge 'disaster', the Internet industry remains the same. It is the mainstay, but it remains the same. There are no new development opportunities to emerge, and a new era is coming.

I still have a few years left, but now that I have accumulated enough wealth, is it necessary to continue to struggle? Even if it is to prove that one does not rely solely on rebirth of memory, is it necessary to go all out? It’s okay to spread it out, but after 2023, where do you want to go? Should you tighten it across the board, or split it up, stabilize what you have, invest in new projects, and be prepared to lose all your money?

Cao Xiyu, Guan Jinyue and others all know that every year, there will be a few days when Wei Tao disappears alone, finds a place, quietly closes the door, and ignores no one. No one knows what he is doing inside. Maybe one day , maybe two or three days.

Everyone has a tacit understanding not to disturb him. According to some people close to him, Mr. Wei has unbridled ideas. Geniuses always live alone. Such space is needed to consider the future development of the group company.

Now, under Anshun, even if Wei Tao tightens his grip, there are still two to three thousand employees who eat with him, with the largest number in Lin'an and the largest live broadcast industry chain.

Every decision he makes may affect the jobs of two to three thousand people.

In the past, only people around him were concerned about what he was doing by locking himself up, but now everyone is paying attention to it.

Xiaomi's plan to cash out has no further details. What Rebus said is that we are still partners side by side. All doubts fell on Wei Tao. Is he a pure investor? What about a partner with whom we can work together to achieve prosperity?

The trend of public opinion has more or less affected the industries under Anshun. It was the same before. Who makes our boss even more famous than those big Internet celebrities? His every move affects tens of millions of netizens. heart of.

This time, it was still the same. The difference was that everyone felt a different feeling than before. They were used to seeing Mr. Wei who was so dazzling. Suddenly, Mr. Wei, a businessman who only pursues the image of profit, and Mr. Wei who founded Maoya and promoted Anshun Entertainment Mr. Wei's image is different and it is difficult to overlap.

All of a sudden, the impact of this public opinion still affected the inside of Anshun to a certain extent.

Suddenly, rumors spread in private, and the content of private discussions among employees began to become outrageous. Some even talked about what I would do if Anshun was no longer there.

"The capital represented by Rebus may have to transfer Maoya's shares. As for Penguin, Mr. Ma is building his own platform. Where will the shares he holds go?"

The two sides added up to more than 30%. Suddenly, a sense of crisis emerged in the eyes of the unknown, thinking that Wei Tao had to take the blame this time, otherwise he would really offend those big bosses. , and there are Zhang Sanshi and Shen Nanpeng from the investment bank. The combined shares of these people account for more than half. Even if the AB shares are different, it is still possible to pry the foundation of Maoya.

Mr. Wei, you are not the same person you were back then. Now that you have an industry, you are no longer qualified to be willful.

Wei Tao laughed when he heard such an argument. He was truly a master of methods. He was worthy of being a boss. A simple lever could cause so many things. However, such a 'warning' was also quite good. Whatever I do in the future, I won’t have any psychological burden.
