My Age of Investment

the next day.

Rongcheng government and Xia Jingxing signed a formal memorandum of cooperation in Jinniu Hotel.

Yabo and several other vice presidents of the Liqiu Fund also rushed to the signing site from Lin'an.

The appearance of several tall foreigners who were still wearing suit jackets on a hot day and their hair combed meticulously raised the bar for cooperation.

Xia Jingxing didn't want to call Yabo and the others over, because the due diligence on Ahri hadn't officially ended yet.

But Ge Zhifu insisted on asking Xia Jingxing to call a few foreigners to support the scene, to show that he was in line with international standards.

Sitting on the stage, Xia Jingxing looked at the few officials beside him, all of them bursting into laughter, and looking at the eyes of the duck necks, they couldn't be more satisfied.

The reporters in the audience also kept snapping at the duck neck and the others, leaving the real big boss Xia Jingxing aside.

The corner of Xia Jingxing's mouth twitched, the foreigner's face is really easy to use.

No way, attracting investment is the main theme of today's society, and it can't be corrected for a while.

Behind Xia Jingxing and several leaders, there was a red banner hanging high: Prospect Capital and Rongcheng Government Strategic Cooperation Signing Ceremony!

Vision Capital also marked it in both Chinese and English, which made Xia Jingxing scratch his forehead.

But I'm not mistaken, Vision Capital is considered a foreign capital.

Of course, if Xia Jingxing wants to become a domestic investor, he can just exchange US dollars for RMB and register a RMB fund in China.

This can increase foreign exchange reserves, which is what the country is probably looking forward to.

Just doing so will be very inconvenient for the fund to operate.

Domestic Internet companies that want to list overseas will set up a VIE structure in the offshore islands, which was invented by Sina back then and has been used until now.

The US dollar fund is also established in the offshore islands, and is governed by the local laws of the offshore islands together with the Internet companies registered in the offshore islands.

In the event of an investment dispute, you can file a lawsuit directly in the courts of the offshore islands.

There is also the issue of funding.

The US dollar fund invests in a company, and transfers money from the bank account in the offshore islands to the offshore bank account of the invested company.

The invested company can transfer the money to a company registered in Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong company converts the money into RMB and transfers it to the mainland company controlled by the agreement, that is, the real company that operates a website in the mainland;

If you want to enter overseas markets, you can keep part of the money in bank accounts in offshore islands or Hong Kong and not enter the country.

Because getting in is easy, getting out is hard.

This is much easier to operate than RMB funds subject to foreign exchange controls.

In addition, since all Internet companies are currently listed overseas, it is much easier to exit the US dollar fund.

At the same time, compared with RMB funds, USD funds can enjoy certain tax benefits.

The most important thing is that sometimes it is easier to use a piece of foreign capital to walk in the country.

Jack Mana, posed a difficult problem for him. The other party hoped that the nearly 700 million US dollars invested by Envision Capital in Ahri would be fully converted into domestic capital.

But in actual operation, it was found that only part of the funds could be converted into domestic capital, that is, the part that Ari issued new shares.

As for the old stocks, Fidelity Investments and GGV Capital’s investment funds are all registered in the offshore islands, and they also hold shares in Ari that are registered in the offshore islands.

Vision Capital's acceptance of this part of equity through agreement transfer can only be done in offshore islands, and there is no way to make domestic capital.

As soon as Yabo arrived in Rongcheng today, he reported the news to his boss.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Xia Jingxing buried his head, finished signing the contract in his hand, and exchanged ideas with Zhifu Ge who was sitting on the side. The two stood up again and shook hands in a friendly manner.

The reporters in the audience set up long guns and short cannons, constantly capturing the wonderful moments.

After the contract was exchanged, the exclusive awards BGM sounded in the signing hall, and a beautiful hostess in a cheongsam walked onto the stage carrying a tray with a large red book with an exquisite appearance.

Prefect Ge took out the big red book from the tray with both hands, and handed it to Xia Jingxing himself.

The two spread out the red book together and stood side by side for the reporters to take pictures.

This is actually a letter of appointment awarded to Xia Jingxing, hiring Envision Capital to be the investment ambassador of Rongcheng Tianfu Software Park.

After these ceremonies, the reporters thought it was finally over and they could start asking questions. Everyone couldn't wait, and some people started to raise their hands.

But they were disappointed.

Ge Zhifu looked at the reporters in the audience, and said in a moderate voice: "It takes ten years to grow trees, and a hundred years to cultivate people. No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education..."

At this time, the LED screen behind Zhifu Ge and Xia Jingxing lit up, showing pictures one after another.

The muddy elementary school playground, the lonely rusty basketball hoop, the children lying on the ground playing marbles...

The reporter didn't understand what he meant, so the prefect Ge began to uncover the mystery: "Although Mr. Xia Jingxing is working hard in the United States, he cares about his hometown. When he returns to China this time, he hopes to contribute to the education of his hometown.

Donate 10 million yuan of sports equipment and materials to rural primary schools in the city. "

After all, two cheongsam hostesses came onto the stage carrying a big red sign, and the seven big "zeros" were very conspicuous.

Only then did the reporters realize that there was still a grand finale.

Ten million is not much, compared to Xia Jingxing's "four billion US dollars" net worth, it is just a drop in the bucket.

But it can't be said that it is less, it is still available.

A few reporters whispered among themselves, saying that Xia Jingxing's worth of 4 billion US dollars was a bit inflated, and that it hadn't been listed yet, so there were not many funds that could be used.

Ten million is considered very thoughtful!

Xia Jingxing and the head of the city's education system stood together, took the sign handed over by Miss Manners, held it in front of their chests, and stood side by side.

Xia Jingxing held his head high, with a satisfied smile on his face.

The head of the education system was not so satisfied. He approached Zhifu in private and wanted the prefect to negotiate with Xia Jingxing to exchange 10 million sports equipment into money, but he was reprimanded by Zhifu.

After the donation ceremony was over, it was finally the turn of the reporters to ask questions.

The reporters knew the rules very well, and asked the prefect Ge first.

Prefect Ge didn't make a long speech, but briefly explained the ruling policy, intending to create a first-class business and investment environment, and welcomed all investors to invest in Rongcheng, and finally sent his best wishes for the future development of Envision Capital in Rongcheng.

After speaking in just two minutes, Zhifu Ge gave Xia Jingxing the rest of the time in a considerate manner. He knew that the other party was in business and needed such an exposure opportunity and stage.

The reporter who was the first to ask Xia Jingxing a question was very excited and asked with a smile: "Mr. Xia, what do you think of the business environment and investment environment in Rongcheng? What is the motivation for your investment?"

Xia Jingxing nodded and said with a smile, "I was born in Rongcheng and grew up in Rongcheng, so I am familiar with everything here.

At present, Rongcheng is constantly striving to develop, and I believe that it will become an international metropolis in the future.

Choosing to invest in Rongcheng, on the one hand, is to repay the land that raised me, and on the other hand, I am familiar with the environment here. "

Speaking of this, Xia Jingxing's voice suddenly raised an octave: "Of course, the most important thing is that I think this is a city with potential and investment value."

The reporter also asked about the specific potential and value, and Xia Jingxing answered them one by one.

The second reporter asked: "Mr. Xia, there are many discussions about you on the Internet, and there are endless debates about whether you prefer to invest in China or the United States in the future.

What is your opinion, or response to this? "

Xia Jingxing nodded, "The United States is the largest economy in the world, while my country is the fastest growing economy in the world.

In the future, my investment focus will be on my country and the United States, but to invest, I need to have a global perspective, and I will also cast my eyes on other regions and countries. "

The reporter was not satisfied with the answer, and felt a little evasive, so he pointed it out: "It is said that Vision Capital has invested more than one billion US dollars in the United States, but in China, there are very few investment projects. What do you think of this?"

Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "First of all, let me correct you. Vision Capital currently has an asset management scale of more than one billion US dollars. A large part of the funds have not yet been invested, and a large part of the invested funds have also been allocated to Chinese concept stocks.

This is the case with hedge funds.

As for VC and PE funds, it is true that they invest more in American targets at present, but we are talking about a large domestic target, which is several times larger than the sum of all US targets. "

How big should it be?

The reporter wanted to ask more questions, but Xia Jingxing politely declined because it was not convenient to disclose the business secrets for the time being.

Xia Jingxing's behavior of saying only half of what he said tickled the hearts of the reporters present.

The first two reporters asked all kinds of questions about business, and the third reporter took a different approach and asked: "Mr. Xia, there are many Internet celebrities showing love to you on the Internet. As a post-80s generation, it is another success. Entrepreneurs, what do you think of this behavior?"

Xia Jingxing had dark hair. After seeing the so-called "beauty" in his father's mouth yesterday, he almost couldn't eat dinner.

I want to register a blog account to respond, but I don't think it is necessary, and it is easy to be popular again by the other party.

This kind of thing can't be said that people slander your reputation.

If you hold on to it all the time, it is easy to be misunderstood by netizens, thinking that you are a man, a celebrity, and you are too petty.

Cold treatment, without any response, is the best way to deal with it.

At this time, this blind reporter asked suddenly, it could be said that Xia Jingxing was stabbed in the heart again.

Seeing Xia Jingxing's face turned ugly, Zhifu Ge felt that there was something wrong with this reporter, why did he ask these personal matters?

Xia Jingxing said with a puzzled look on his face, "I don't know what it is to show love! On the Internet, there are many deceptive behaviors by human beings."

Although I don't quite understand what "human confusing behavior" means, many reporters present laughed out loud.

The reporter who caused Xia Jingxing's displeasure still wanted to ask questions, but was forced to arrange by the staff, and the right to ask questions was handed over to the next reporter.

The few reporters behind didn't do anything else, they asked about Vision Capital's investment strategy, Facebook, and even Tesla.

Envision Capital wanted to open an office in Chengdu Tianfu Software Park, and planned to build a business incubator with universities in Chengdu. These two things were also asked.

Facing these reporters who did not engage in matters and asked questions honestly, Xia Jingxing was very friendly and answered their questions seriously.

It was almost noon when the signing ceremony ended.

Prefect Ge invited Xia Jingxing and his team to the city government's reception luncheon, but Xia Jingxing declined on the grounds that he had to catch a plane later.

This is really not an excuse, as soon as Xia Jingxing left the Jinniu Hotel, he rushed to the airport with Zhang Chenguang, Yabo and others.

Seeing this scene, Ge Zhifu secretly sighed, success is no fluke.
