Rebirth Starts From 2006

September 22nd, Monday, Nanjin,

The subprime mortgage crisis that has ravaged the financial world in Europe and the United States has not had a great impact on the lives of ordinary people in China. For most people, it can only provide a few talking points. For some people, it is not even a talking point. Busy making a living and turning a deaf ear,

Just like today’s International Convention and Exhibition Center,

This year's China Internet Conference is being held here. Both the conference service staff and the guests attending the conference are all surrounding the conference.

As for the subprime mortgage crisis, it is not as interesting as some gossip.

The entire meeting was scheduled for four days and started yesterday, but Chen Yang did not attend.

He just arrived this morning and will only attend today's meeting.

After all, with his current wealth and status, there is no need to accompany him all the way. Just come and sit down and say something as a favor. Even if the task is completed, no one can say no.

There are four items on today’s agenda, the opening ceremony, leadership speech, plenary meeting, and high-level summit.

The first three events are arranged in the morning, the high-level summit is in the afternoon, and in the evening there is an opening reception arranged by the organizer.

In fact, leaders speak in the morning, industry leaders speak in the afternoon, and in the evening they provide a social place for these social elites who rarely get together.

"Mr. Chen, you have to have a drink tonight,"

Lao Zhang leaned back in his chair with a sullen look and said cheerfully, "Give me a chance to hug my thighs!"

When he said this, Lao Zhang was filled with emotions.

Think about it, when we first met him last year, their status was not on the same level.

It has only been a year and a half now, and although the tide has risen, all boats have risen, but the young man in front of me has already run ahead, and he can't even see his back.

The most irritating thing is that my success comes from the projects I collaborated with him on. Otherwise, with the current stock price of Souhu, I probably wouldn’t even bother to come to the meeting.

It is said that the Internet industry is the best place to create wealth, but today he felt that no one can compare to those who play finance!

Lao Li beside him also nodded with deep understanding and sighed, "I have thought deeply about Rainbow Group. I didn't expect that Mr. Chen's Rainbow Group would be so deep.

Buy Santander! Tsk tsk, I don’t dare to think about it, I don’t dare to think about it! "

Not to mention him, even DFJ behind him, a Silicon Valley asset company that claims to manage billions of dollars in capital, is not at the same level as Santander.

As a result, more than half a year ago, the man who needed to cooperate with himself, Lao Zhang and Lao Li to support the Xijiang Supercomputing Center actually wanted to acquire Santander.

Tsk tsk, things are so unpredictable.

How did this kid do it? !

Chen Yang looked away from the meeting manual, looked at him helplessly, and said, "What a joke, what about my Rainbow Group? People would think that the entire Rainbow Group belongs to me.

At most, I am just a small partner, holding a small share, which means I am lucky enough to have boarded a big ship! "

Ever since Qin Yu announced that Rainbow Group would launch a privatization acquisition of Santander Bank, there simply shouldn’t be too many such voices.

After all, it is one of the top banks in the world, and it is actually being acquired by a financial company with domestic capital participation, and this is also against the backdrop of the global financial crisis.

In this era when ordinary people think that millionaires are already very good, they don’t even dare to write about it in novels, but it happened in real life. How can it not cause an uproar?

That is to say, there is a meeting now, and everyone is sitting in their seats. Otherwise, there will definitely be a large group of people around Boss Chen at this time. He is the most handsome boy among all the participants today!

"No matter how many shares there are, they are still shareholders!"

Sitting on the other side, Xiao Ma also said with emotion, "Although Santander has a market capitalization of just over 10 billion U.S. dollars, it manages assets worth trillions of U.S. dollars.

The most important thing is that he has a strong background. It is the largest bank in Spain and the 13th largest bank in Europe. Last year, it was ranked 19th in the world.

If Rainbow Group can launch an acquisition of Santander, it must be at least in the same weight class! "

"oops,"

Chen Yang sighed and said sadly, "That's a good question. I also want to know how much net worth this Rainbow Group has!"

As soon as these words came out, the four of them looked at him with disdain.

Show off, Hong Guoguo's show off, that is, they don't know the truth about Versailles, otherwise they would definitely blurt it out at this time.

Oh, by the way, Lao Liu from Jingdong was also there. According to his situation, he should sit in the back row, but who made him get close to Boss Chen, so he was pulled to sit in the front row, just behind the leader.

Seeing their disbelief, Boss Chen sighed and said with a smile, "Oh, what's there to hide? I really don't know!"

That's right, he really doesn't know,

God knows how much net worth the Rainbow Group has now.

Anyway, according to the briefing submitted by Huang Shan once a week, the company's total assets have been rising and have already exceeded 200 billion US dollars.

This is only the total assets. If all its companies are put on the capital market one by one, there will be no idea how much money there will be.

Young boss Chen finally understands the meaning of that sentence.

Money is just a number. Is it interesting to wonder whether it is 200 billion or 256.789 billion?

Maybe it was because the expression on Chen Yang's face was so real that these people actually believed it.

Is it true that the powerful boss Chen is not the major shareholder of Rainbow Financial Group?

Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know how much money your company has, right?

Then there is something interesting in this. If he is not the one, then Qin Yu and Huang Shan are even more impossible.

So, who is the real mastermind?

On the right side of Boss Chen, Zou Rong struggled to hold back her laughter. Then when she saw her husband glance over, she quickly controlled her expression and sat upright.

Oops, there is indeed a big gap between me and Sister Shan and Sister Yu. If it were them, they should be able to cooperate with their husbands!

Regardless of whether it is true or false, this topic cannot be discussed further. It is okay to make a joke, but getting to the bottom of it is crossing the line. Can the financial data of a private company be inquired casually? !

Lao Zhang then coughed dryly, looked at the leader who was speaking on the stage, tilted his head and said, "Mr. Chen, why didn't you go over and get involved in such a big case?"

Chen Yang curled his lips and said with a smile, "What I'm familiar with is industrial investment. I can't do something as professional as finance."

"You're so humble,"

Lao Zhang smiled and said politely, but did not ask further questions. Instead, he said, "Let's gossip. How sure are you of this public acquisition?"

Then he quickly smiled and said, "Of course, if it's not convenient, just forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

"Well,"

Chen Yang pursed his lips and said, "This is not a matter of inconvenience. The main thing is that I don't understand it very well either."

He turned around and smiled and shrugged, "To be honest, I know some domestic banks, but I only know a few foreign banks. Speaking of Santander, I really didn't know where he lived before."

After asking three questions, Lao Zhang and others knew that it was time to stop, so they let go of this annoying question and turned to talk about other things.

Time passed little by little, the leaders above were speaking, the guests below were chatting, and they applauded at the critical moment.

After the morning's agenda ended, several entrepreneurs, including Chen Yang, had a social meal at the same table with the leaders, and it was afternoon.

As a digression,

During lunch, Lao Zhang, Lao Li and Xiao Ma also came to the table. Even Zou Rong, the well-known girlfriend and secretary of Boss Chen, was also present. Only Lao Liu was a little less interested and was arranged to go to another table.

There were several other bosses at the dinner table, and one of them was someone that Boss Chen expected, the famous Lao Ma.

Lao Ma's communication skills are perfect. Unlike the rumors outside, he and Xiao Ma have a pretty good relationship. At least on the surface, they talk and laugh, just like they have been good brothers for many years, and they are also very polite to other people.

Lao Ma is naturally very enthusiastic about Boss Chen, but he is not like other businessmen who open their mouths and shut up when they have the opportunity to cooperate. Instead, he talks nonsense like ordinary friends.

This emotional intelligence actually made Boss Chen, who was a little prejudiced against him, unable to feel even the slightest bit disgusted.

As expected of an entrepreneur who can achieve great achievements, he is indeed awesome!

In this case, when the dinner was over, the two naturally exchanged business cards.

Yes, this is a real opportunity for cooperation.

…

After a short lunch break, at two o'clock in the afternoon, the International Internet High-level Summit, the main venue of this Internet conference, officially started.

The theme of the summit is, Looking forward to cutting-edge new trends!

The theme of the entire conference is 'Integration promotes development, penetration creates value'. Based on this major theme, we look forward to new trends at the forefront of the international Internet.

Boss Chen's speech was relatively late, so he listened to other big bosses' speeches first.

After listening to the speeches of several people, with his vision of predicting the future, he had to admit that compared to the grand and crowning articles in the morning, there was indeed a lot of useful information in the afternoon.

These big guys are indeed quite capable.

What this means is that the European and American Internet’s leading innovative thinking, technology, and models are displayed and discussed.

That is to say, the differences in the development of enterprises in the same field at home and abroad are in dialogue with the model with Chinese characteristics.

They all conducted exploration and research on the current new Internet ecological phenomenon.

Of course, no matter how exciting these speeches are, they are still far behind the speech prepared by Boss Chen.

Just yesterday, the speech was finally finalized after Chen Yang dictated it, Zou Rong compiled it, and Huang Shan revised it.

After the finalization, the first thing Huang Shan did was not give the speech to Chen Yang, but made a phone call to him.

Ask him, is it too early for you to release this thing?

At least let us prepare for one, two, three, four, five or six years in advance. After completing the relevant layout, we can then take it out to maximize the benefits!

At that time, Chen Yang said that the cake was too big for Rainbow Group to eat.

On the contrary, if we put forward this concept at this time, and then the whole country and the whole world work together, we will definitely be able to make this cake bigger.

And with the layout of Rainbow Group in finance, Internet, communications, new energy, and other industries, it can definitely take the biggest and most delicious piece.

In this case, why not take it out immediately? What should we wait for later? !

When Huang Shan heard that she was right, she immediately sent the speech to Boss Chen.

It's a pity that she is currently busy with worldly affairs. She has to deal with the trivial matters of the company, and she also has to reform and reorganize the company according to the requirements of Boss Chen at the last meeting. She really doesn't have time to come over and witness Boss Chen's exciting moment. .

The big bosses who spoke passed by one by one, and under the introduction of the host of the conference, it was finally Boss Chen’s turn to take the stage.

Taking the speech from Zou Rong, Chen Yang stood up, straightened his tailored suit a little, and under the leadership of the etiquette girl, he stepped onto the first public stage in his life with confident and vigorous steps.

After standing at the podium, Chen Yang gently raised the position of the microphone. He raised his head and smiled slightly, "Dear leaders and friends, good afternoon everyone!"

The thousand guests present immediately clapped their hands, and the venue burst into warm applause.

When the applause stopped, Chen Yang glanced at the unfolded speech and said with a smile, "I am very honored to be invited by the organizer to speak here.

Friends who know me may know that last year, I proposed a concept, namely Internet thinking.

Regarding this concept, I have explained it through Damai’s official website, and I am honored to be recognized by friends from all walks of life.

It’s a coincidence that the theme of our conference today is ‘Integration Promotes Development, Penetration Creates Value’. It has a lot in common with the Internet spirit of truth-seeking, openness, equality, collaboration and sharing proposed in Internet thinking.

After receiving the invitation to the conference, I was thinking, how can we achieve, 'integration promotes development and penetration creates value'?

Facing the ever-changing communication and Internet technologies and the increasingly complex international economic situation, how should we look forward to the future?

In this regard, after nearly half a year of thinking, I have summarized a little personal experience and share it with you today,

If there is anything inappropriate, please criticize and correct me! "

Before he finished speaking, there was a buzz of whispers on the scene.

Since the end of last year, when Chen Yang first proposed the concept of Internet thinking and it spread, the academic discussion on this concept has intensified.

To be honest, this concept has indeed reached its peak. In the past, ordinary people thought that the Internet was a network-based information transmission tool. This superficial understanding

Rather, it elevates the concept of the Internet to an academic or even philosophical level, which greatly promotes theoretical research on the Internet.

This is also the main reason why the organizer insisted on inviting Chen Yang to the meeting, and even used their connections to ask the Guangzhou City Government to submit an invitation letter just in case.

Even the people who have made significant contributions to Internet theoretical research are not present at the grand Internet conference. Isn’t it true that it is not worthy of its name? !

Many people originally believed that Internet thinking should be a milestone in Chen Yang's theoretical research on the Internet. If he wanted to make a breakthrough, it might take several years.

Unexpectedly, within a year, he actually proposed a new theoretical concept?

I don’t know the concept of this time, how does it compare to Internet thinking? !
