Recast youth

Chapter 1760 Ambition
Dixon's rejection did not surprise Ye Feng at all.

After all, Dixon's current position is quite high, the head of Citibank's global capital markets. Relatively speaking, Lanshan is still much weaker than a behemoth like Citigroup.

But Ye Feng is imperative to invite Dixon to join because Lanshan is currently short of senior management personnel.

In particular, there is a lack of professional financial investment personnel like Dixon who can act independently.

"Don't rush to refuse."

Ye Feng looked at Dixon and said: "Yes, Lanshan currently does not have an investment department, but this is only temporary. I will set up a merger and acquisition investment department later. Now Lanshan has a lot of cash flow. As time goes by, this The cash flow figure will gradually increase, and I hope that this cash flow can be used to invest in and acquire companies with potential."

"Comparatively speaking, I still think that a developing country has more opportunities than a developed country. Currently, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup all have investment branches in Asia. I believe you also know this. Do you want to join me?" Are you here to challenge the possibilities of the future?”

At this point, Ye Feng paused, looked at Dixon and continued: "Now China's Internet is developing very fast in all aspects, and the Internet is also developing very fast. NetEase, Alibaba, Tencent, and Lanshan are all examples. There are many opportunities, but You have to see clearly, what is suitable for Lanshan is the best. I need you to help me see clearly, so as to choose the right opportunity. After the road show these days, I also feel that you are very suitable to help me. Lanshan five years ago Shanyi has nothing, and Lanshan’s market value will be US$180 billion in five years. In the next five years, I hope you will work with me to push Lanshan’s market value to US$1800 billion.”

$1800 billion?
Dixon was hesitating at first, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but look up at Ye Feng. The current market value of his bank, Citibank, was less than US$3000 billion.

Although Citibank has exceeded US$1800 billion, how many years did it take Citibank?Since its establishment on June 1812, 6, after nearly two centuries of development and mergers and acquisitions, it has become one of the largest banks in the United States and a major international bank with branches in nearly 16 countries and regions around the world.

But Ye Feng actually wants to hit 5 billion US dollars in 1800 years, and he is still a personal company. How can he not surprise Dixon?

However, Dixon also noticed another sentence in Ye Feng's words, that is, Lanshan had nothing five years ago. So is it more difficult to go from US$180 billion to US$1800 billion, or from 0 to US$180 billion?
The difficulty is undoubtedly greater in the latter.

If someone told Dixon that he wanted to build a company with a market value of $180 billion into a company with a market value of $1800 billion, Dickson would definitely laugh at his nonsense.

But he kind of believed what Ye Feng said, and he didn't dare not believe it, because the young-faced man in front of him had already accomplished too many miracles.

Because Ye Feng’s name is not only Lanshan Company, he is also the co-founder of Maple Leaf Fund and owns 40% of fcaebook’s shares...

Even PE kings like Yang Qingzhi are working for him, and they have just made the largest acquisition in the hotel industry.

Think about it.

Dixon was moved, but he did not rush to agree to Ye Feng. Instead, he stood up and said to Ye Feng: "Well, I will definitely consider it carefully. I will give you an answer after Lanshan successfully completes its IPO."

"Okay, I'm waiting for you to join."

Ye Feng stood up and shook hands with Dixon with a smile.

Dixon left after shaking hands with Ye Feng. He was even more concerned about Ye Feng's information than he was about Lanshan Group, his current employer at Citi, not for any other reason but because he attended Maple Leaf Fund's acquisition of Hilton in Ye Feng. After joining the hotel group, he became more concerned about Ye Feng.

Ye Feng, a Chinese, is really too young.

And he is so young and his actions are so big every time, how can he not care?He wanted to know where the limits of this young man Ye Feng were, and how many properties he had besides Lanshan Group under his name.

After investigation.Dixon found that Ye Feng had a very comprehensive view of the overall situation and was very decisive. The investment in fcaebook proved his overall view and decisiveness.

On the contrary, YHOO was useless because of Ye Feng's support. The US$10 billion acquisition of fcaebook that year was reduced to US$8 million by Zack due to the decline in stock prices. Now it has become a joke that cannot be erased by YHOO.

In addition, due to the sudden rise of Lanshan, Dixon has indeed developed a lot of interest in many companies in China. In China, which is developing rapidly, are there still companies that are developing as fast as Lanshan?
Maybe not.

Maybe there is.

Everything is unknown, and the unknown often means there may be a surprise hidden underneath, making you want to open the box and explore what is inside.

After thinking for a while, Dixon stopped thinking about it for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was to successfully list Lanshan on the Nasdaq and to meet with Schultz, the owner of the NBA team Supersonics, tomorrow.

If he really wants to switch jobs to Ye Feng's company, he must first help him buy the SuperSonics team as his first gift before taking office.

……

In Ye Feng's suite.

Several people did not speak when Ye Feng invited Dixon to join. After Dixon left, they all asked Ye Feng if he really planned to invite Dixon.

And analyze the pros and cons.

"Brother Feng."

Hou Yao thought for a moment, and first said to Ye Feng: "I'm not talking about you, wouldn't it be inappropriate to invite this foreigner to your company? No matter how powerful he is, he is from the United States, and he doesn't understand the situation in our country very well. Chinese No, can he figure it out when he goes to your company?"

Wen Yueqi glanced at Hou Yao with a smile: "Do you think foreigners are fools?"

"I don't think he is a fool, it's just that he has been in the United States and doesn't know much about our country. I see that many large companies looking for senior executives are returnees who have studied MBA and have some understanding of our national conditions." Hou Yao explained.

After Hou Yao finished speaking, Zhou Yihang nodded and agreed: "I think the same thing as Hou Yao. No matter how powerful foreigners are, they are not as useful as our own people. There are also many professional managers in China. At least they must know the situation in our country." .”

"It's too easy for you to think."

Chen Huang shook his head and said to Zhou Yihang and Hou Yao: "Not to mention that those overseas returnees who studied MBA only have paper-based experience. Now investment banks such as Citigroup and Goldman Sachs have specialized investment branches in Asia. Your understanding of the company is deeper than you think, and Ye Feng, you should not only want to invest in domestic companies, right?"

Said Chen Huang looked at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng laughed. This was inevitable. If he only invested in domestic companies, why would he need to find a foreigner to take charge of the investment and M&A department?He himself asked the people below to make a list of companies seeking investment. Wouldn't it be faster if he saw a familiar company name and just checked it?In addition, Dixon can also help him share the focus and even allow him to make some mistakes. After all, an investment guru who points out where to hit is too buggy. Ye Feng doesn't want to look so evil in front of the public. If a brain like Einstein's is taken to be dissected and studied, that's the end of it.
