Chapter One Hundred and Twenty The Problems of the 'Women'



"Mr. Guo, don't be humble! You are recognized as a business wizard. шщш. The most high-profile Internet company in Silicon Valley. Invested in Matrix Films, two consecutive films have achieved an enviably high box office, and even reached a cooperation with Time Warner. Entering the publishing industry is even more difficult. I heard that Penguin Landon made an offer You rejected the $800 million acquisition of Thorn Bird Publishing Company. As for Guo's Business Group, Phoenix Company, and Matrix Games, they are developing rapidly in their respective industries, and each has amazing potential. Even if they occupy one of them, they will be called the 'elite' in the business world, but Mr. Guo has occupied all of them, and the time is less than a year. If there is no inherent logic and far-sighted vision to support such an achievement, the little 'girl' You absolutely don't believe it!" Yao Qianqian's beautiful eyes flashed with a 'fine' light, and she said firmly.

Facing the complex eyes of everyone, Guo Shouyun's thoughts turned, "I didn't expect Miss Yao to know so much about the next one!"

"The Chinese circle in the United States can be said to be big or small. Besides, how can Mr. Guo's amazing achievements not attract attention!?" Yao Qianqian pulled her long hair on the temples behind her ears. With a hint of strength.

"Mr. Guo, you should talk about it. You don't know. During this time, my family has always used you as an example to talk to me and let me learn from you. Today is a rare opportunity, you must teach me well. !" Qiu Hongying said.

Looking at the two 'women', one charming with a hint of strength, the other playful with a hint of pleading, and the men around them who were tacitly silent despite their different expressions, Guo Shouyun knew it.

"These guys are smart enough to let the 'female' rush ahead. Is this a guess that I will eat soft or hard?" Guo Shouyun thought.

Beautiful 'women' have an inherent advantage, especially when facing men, they can always win great tolerance. As long as Guo Shouyun is not a straight man, and Yao Qianqian and Qiu Hongying don't say anything too offensive, then the effect of their words is far more than Qin Xiao and the others.

Is Guo Shouyun straight? Obviously not!

"Miss Qiu, I remember someone said just now that I don't have any outstanding advantages other than being handsome. How could this be...?" Guo Shouyun said with a half-smile.

Thinking of what she said just now, Qiu Hongying blushed pretty, "Oh, why are you so vengeful? They were just joking, and now I'm really asking you for advice!"

Glancing at her, Guo Shouyun, who was mostly joking and probing, didn't hold onto this question. His eyes swept across the crowd quickly, and after organizing the language, he said calmly: "I really don't have any skills in doing business. It has been going smoothly all the time, and there is a bit of luck! ... However, I have worked hard in the business world for so long. It's still some experience, if you are interested, I can share it with you!"

"Of course we are interested! Mr. Guo, please speak!" Yao Qianqian said immediately.

The rest of the people also nodded.

"I won't talk about big truths, let's start with simple investment returns!" After a little groaning, "If you just want to make money, then the stock market and bond market have good opportunities. Berkshire Hathaway, Goldman Sachs, General Motors, and Walmart are all worth investing in. In the bond market, Amazon, Apple's high-yield bonds, and real estate MBS bonds also have good returns. Of course, no matter the stock market or the bond market, I They are talking about long-term holdings of more than a year.”

"...If you want to start a business, the building materials industry, real estate industry, interior design industry, real estate agency, and secured loan industry all have very high growth values!"

"It seems that Mr. Guo is very optimistic about the real estate-related industry?" Yao Qianqian said.

"good!"

Guo Shouyun nodded affirmatively.

Another year will be the third outbreak of the U.S. real estate industry in the past 100 years. House prices will rise by as much as 150% within five years, bringing about a period of rapid growth in various industries related to it. Although the skyrocketing housing prices will eventually lead to the subprime mortgage crisis, as long as you exit in time before the crisis, the harvest will be unimaginable huge profits.

"Mr. Guo, I don't know if you know, the house price in San Francisco has dropped by 3% to 5% month-on-month this year!" Du Hongchuan said suddenly.

Glancing at this indifferent man, Guo Shouyun nodded.

“The decline in house prices in the San Francisco area is because of the Nasdaq crisis. If you look at the entire United States and compare the top 50 cities by GDP, you will find that since 1995, house prices in the United States have been rising. . It's just that the rise is more modest and not as noticeable."

"Since it's a moderate increase, doesn't that mean that the profits are limited?" Qiu Hongying said bluntly.

"Ha ha!"

"why are you laughing…?"

"Hongying, don't talk yet!" Yao Qianqian quickly stopped her best friend.

After looking at the two of them, Guo Shouyun didn't think Xu said: "I think there must be many of you who are studying economics. If you think about it, you should understand that as long as the real estate, a major industry that is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, starts to rise, it will inevitably open a new market. 10 years of growth period. The last real estate bull market in the United States ended in 1986, and it has been 14 years. According to the law of U.S. housing price changes in the past 100 years, the third largest real estate bull market since the end of 1986 is coming. Moreover, the policies of the national government are also shifting in the direction that is conducive to the development of real estate. For example, the Federal Reserve cut the reserve ratio and cut interest rates to stimulate the economy. Another example is President Bush Jr., who just won the election. He promised the public at the beginning. It will reduce the proportion of personal income tax. These are rare positive factors for the rise in housing prices.”

His words made everyone ponder once again. As people who have been educated by elites since childhood, and almost all of them graduated from famous universities majoring in economics or business administration, they naturally understand that Guo Shouyun's words are true, and what richness is contained in them. income!

Two or three minutes passed, and after a few people looked at each other, Yao Qianqian, who received the signal, said again, "Since Mr. Guo judged that real estate is promising, why didn't he invest?"

"Who said I didn't invest? If you know enough details, you should know that whether it is a retail store under Guo's Commercial Group or a theater chain under Matrix Films, almost all the properties are bought together. As for why I don't directly Entering the real estate development industry. Sigh... I am not like your family. I have been rooted in the United States for nearly a hundred years. Here, my roots are intertwined and all kinds of relationships are deeply rooted. It's hard to do anything great! If that's the case, why would I do the stupid thing of 'knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring the tigers to the mountains'."

Although I don't quite understand the meaning of "playing soy sauce", it is not difficult to guess the context of Guo Shouyun.

"Mr. Guo is too humble. In the United States, money can make a ghost run the mill. With your rich capital, if you really want to participate in the real estate industry, you can definitely become a giant!" Qin Xiao complimented.

"I'm still a little interested in investing. It's okay to do it myself. I'm busy with these companies now!" Guo Shouyun shook his head.

"Don't Mr. Guo talk about the Internet? Now you are the most well-known entrepreneur in Silicon Valley. I don't know how many people want to invest in the LinkedIn you founded!" Yao Qianqian suddenly said.

Glancing at her, I had long expected that the Internet and LinkedIn would be an inescapable topic for this gathering. So Guo Shouyun had already prepared the draft before he came.

"The Internet is really promising. But I personally don't recommend you to get involved. Even if you want to participate, just invest, don't think about starting your own business!"

"Why?" Yao Qianqian said suddenly.

"It's very simple. LinkedIn has burned nearly 40 million US dollars since its establishment. After starting its internationalization next year, we plan to burn another 100 million US dollars. And for at least three years, we do not plan to leave a surplus of 1 US dollars on the book." After a while, Guo Shouyun took a breath, facing everyone's surprised, even shocked eyes, sighed and continued, "Don't look at LinkedIn's beauty on the surface, in fact, I live on thin ice every day, because of you I don't know if a business model that is more attractive to users than LinkedIn will emerge in Silicon Valley the next day and replace us! Therefore, we have to keep 'spending' money, and then 'spending' money, trying to keep ourselves in the First in the industry!"

After a pause, Guo Shouyun quickly swept across the crowd, and said in a low and solemn tone, "Are you really going to live such a life?"

"Mr. Guo is exaggerating. Don't Internet companies have VCs behind them Why spend their own money!" Chen Hui asked curiously.

"Before the Nasdaq crisis, you were right to say that. But after the Nasdaq crisis, the days of trying to get investment from VCs on the basis of an internet concept alone are gone! Nope! A solid profit model, it’s hard to get funding from VCs.”

Everyone is "mixed" in this area of ​​San Francisco. After the Nasdaq crisis broke out some time ago, they have seen what happened when the "wave" of Internet companies in Silicon Valley broke out. Therefore, Guo Shouyun's sigh instantly dispelled their idea of ​​starting an Internet business.

"Mr. Guo mentioned Internet investment just now. I don't know what advice you have in this regard?" Yao Qianqian said again.

After thinking for a while, Guo Shouyun shook his head, "Unless you really want to be a venture capital investor, don't think about investing in the Internet."

"why?"

Yao Qianqian frowned.
