Wall Street Legend

Ye Dongqing realized the value of Green Mountain Coffee. How could he not focus on the value of technology suppliers? He sent someone to contact the company a few months ago to obtain the patents of the K-cup and coffee machine.

Because it is not a listed company and does not need to disclose equity information to the outside world, Mr. Stiller Sr. has never known about this matter.

After hearing this, I don’t know whether to be angry or happy. The cost may be reduced, but it also means that I have completely lost the bargaining chip to fight Ye Dongqing. The only attractive thing about Green Mountain Coffee at the moment is the convenient K-cup technology. , without it Green Mountain Coffee would lose its biggest highlight in grabbing the market.

The old man was a smart man and wisely didn't say anything more. He just reasonably hoped that Ye Dongqing could protect the interests of other shareholders after delisting.

If Tamsui Investment Group raises too much money, it means that their shares will shrink accordingly. The value will still be the same, but the proportion of total equity will be diluted. This is what they are worried about.

Even though the current market value of Green Mountain Coffee is only about 150 million U.S. dollars, Ye Dongqing believes that this company may be able to bring him tens of billions of U.S. dollars in profits. The more shares he holds, the better. However, rapid privatization and delisting could better ensure his long-term interests, so he felt there was no need to worry too much. While raising the repurchase price, he also gave Mr. Stiller a verbal guarantee that he would increase the valuation. Financing with value can also protect the interests of their small shareholders.

From the current point of view, it is definitely a very good proposal, which means that the old man's book wealth suddenly increases by tens of millions of dollars. Ye Dongqing thinks it is worth this price, which means it is even more valuable. The two parties hit it off and will hold a board meeting in the near future. , the result of the discussion was that the combined shares of the two of them had reached 72%, so there would probably be no problems.

This kind of money is easy to get, but what gives Ye Dongqing even more headaches is the hedge fund company.

The money from Tamsui Investment Group has been put into the account, and the company executives headed by Mr. McCord quickly raised funds and became the first investors of Leo Hedge Fund. They invested a total of thirteen million US dollars, mainly because I believe in Ye Dongqing's vision and want to use the salary I usually earn to make some profits.

The high-end party to raise funds was arranged for the night after tomorrow, and Ye Dongqing would contact more people. At least that's what he thought before, but he still had no clue, which made him start to wonder if he was just a hedging player. Got it.

Learning to make money like ordinary people is indeed a bit difficult.

After discussing how to send the old man away, I called Mr. McCord and asked him to send someone to follow up, and set up a temporary team to take charge of the delisting. It must be kept confidential. If the news of the delisting leaks out, it will be equivalent to It gives hedge fund companies an opportunity to make money, but the losses will not be too big. After all, Green Mountain Coffee is not a big company, and the room for maneuver is limited.

I felt that it was definitely not possible to look for projects alone like this, so I simply asked my bodyguard to arrange a helicopter to go to Puchuan Building to see the newly formed company, arrange some tasks for them, and let the guys help them look for it together.

It can't be said that he was doing useless work all day long, but he did not make much progress, so that when he returned home feeling dizzy, Ye Dongqing began to doubt his ability.

I also noticed that I was a little anxious. Opportunities are something that cannot always be said to exist...

Leo Hedge Fund.

Because they were preparing to build the Cobra Building, they did not rent a new office space alone. They are currently renting an office building with Tamsui Investment Group. The employees did not expect to work overtime on the first day of work. Ye Dongqing told them before leaving get off work. , everyone must have a simple project plan today.

It's a bit busy, but if the projects submitted by employees are adopted and the investment pays off, their commission bonuses will also be quite generous.

Among these employees was a young man named Walter Durant, who graduated from Columbia University. His past abilities were not very outstanding. He had two years of work experience at Merrill Lynch and had just worked at Tamsui Investment Group for four months. , was almost laid off, and then transferred to this newly established hedge fund company.

He attended a party tonight, and it wasn't until he got home that he realized that he had something to do. He turned on his computer drunkenly and searched for stocks that had performed well recently. The U.S. dollar has soared to one hundred dollars. The browser he uses is a Google product, and the target he searches for is also Google. Because he is familiar with it, and because he is sleepy, he prints a few pieces of content and then goes to bed.

Ye Dongqing rarely found the passion he had when starting a business again, and came to the company early the next morning.

He has already contacted Mr. Wu Di from Citibank, trying to get him to join in. He is responsible for coordinating with investors. He has an annual salary of 3.5 million US dollars, plus business commissions. The other party agreed to leave Citigroup at the end of the year, and tomorrow January I officially joined mainly because I saw the development potential of this new company.

I was drinking the specially bought Green Mountain coffee. To be honest, the taste was only slightly better than instant. It was incomparable to the authentic Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee brewed with a coffee machine worth tens of thousands of dollars. Mainly because I was used to it. , it’s hard to change the taste after a while.

After finishing the drink, he threw the cup into the trash can. It was almost time to see the people. Ye Dongqing walked over, clapped his hands and asked: "Okay, guys, there are more than 60 million US dollars in the company's account now. Every additional one Every minute means a lost opportunity to make money, does anyone have any good ideas?”

After brainstorming, it was an industry that Ye Dongqing was not very familiar with, so it wasn't a shame to ask more people.

An employee who was eager to perform volunteered and raised his hand and said: "Since June, the Federal Reserve has started another round of interest rate hikes, and the performance of the ruble has been very bad. I have collected and compiled information and feel that it is very likely to depreciate in the short term and be affected by it." The more serious impacts include the RMB and the peso. Of these, only the RMB may rise. International hot money has not flowed into the United States with the interest rate hike. Official data from China shows that international investment rose again in the first three quarters of this year. Washington may Requesting the RMB to appreciate because the goods there have affected many American factories and the unemployment rate has further increased..."

Ye Dongqing waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "I have learned about this project. The best opportunity has been missed. I can give you two million US dollars to try investing, but the rate of return will probably not satisfy me. Who has more information?" Is it a good idea?"
