Chapter 972 Investment Hotspot in the New Century
Molly stayed in the Chinese capital for three days and then left by plane.
Originally, I came here to find Wu Tao this time because I had some intention of not giving up until I achieved my goal. As a result, Wu Tao didn't say anything for a few days. He just took her around and subtly made her gain a lot of insights.
As the center of the country, the capital economic circle has a large political component, but it can still reflect the growing potential of China.
This means that Wu Tao chose to be bearish on the U.S. economy and bullish on the Chinese market, which is actually the general trend.
In addition, the development momentum of emerging markets can often easily surpass that of mature markets.
Moreover, this emerging market is also a huge market with the largest population base in the world.
Therefore, many of Wu Tao's measures in financial investment and industrial investment seem so natural.
When Molly returned to Los Angeles, Paris brought her car to pick her up.
This pair of close friends faced the same problem when cooperating with Wu Tao. So the two of them had a candid chat on the way back to the Irvine Villa.
But when Molly and Paris confessed what they had seen and felt, and finally came to their own changed views, Paris was not surprised at all.
"Yes, Molly, I agree with you."
However, this surprised Molly. She didn't expect Paris to be persuaded so easily, so she asked: "Why?"
Paris put her hands on her knees and said: "You have been to China these days, so you don't know. It has already spread in the American financial community. Due to the official release of the US, China is not far away from officially joining the WTO."
"...It is said that it will be three months at the latest. If it is faster, it may even be one month."
Molly was suddenly stunned, the beautiful eyes on her pretty face widened, and her mouth could not close unexpectedly.
After all, she knows best what this news means.
"So, Paris, China will soon become the next hot spot for capital investment? If so, I'm afraid we have to speed up our plan to enter China, right?"
Paris said without hesitation: "I totally agree."
April is full of beauty in this world.
In mid-April of the new millennium, China received a major piece of good news: China made a major breakthrough in the negotiations to join the WTO.
This means that the day of final accession to the WTO is not far away.
For a time, international capital, like leeches smelling blood, focused their attention on this hot land.
Affected by this good news, the stock price of Beijiang Glass Factory rose strongly on the day it was listed in Xiangjiang. As of the close of trading, it had more than doubled.
The market value of Beijiang Glass Factory also exceeded expectations, exceeding the 1.5 billion mark, and the price-to-earnings ratio reached as much as 20.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the Victoria Hotel, Wu Tao held a glass of red wine in his hand and looked at the brightly lit Victoria Harbor. His heart was filled with passion and he could not calm down for a long time.
The successful listing of Beijiang Glass Factory is a good start for the company under Wu Tao's name.
It also allowed the name of Beijiang, a small and low-income city, to appear on a world-class media and newspaper platform for the first time, greatly increasing its popularity.
After finishing the glass of red wine, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Wu Tao responded, and a fiery figure pushed in the door. Speaking with a Beijiang accent, he said straight like a machine gun: "Boss, Mr. Ding and Vice President Cheng have drunk too much. We just killed them." Take it back to the hotel. Manager Wan sent me over to tell you, so you can rest assured."
Listening to this crisp and clear local accent, Wu Tao was surprised and couldn't help but hold his forehead and laugh.
The other person was stunned by the laughter, and then he was speechless and couldn't even speak.
In order to break this slightly embarrassing situation, Wu Tao suddenly remembered the other party's face and said, "Are you a poppy?"
"So boss, you still remember me? My name is Yu Xiaowu, an employee of the company's administration department."
Wu Tao nodded, "Look, don't you speak Mandarin quite well?"
Yu Xiaowu chuckled, "Mainly because the boss I met just now was so kind, so I blurted out my hometown dialect."
"Okay, go back and tell Wan Fang that I understand. Please ask her to assign someone to take care of President Ding and Vice President Cheng."
"Yes, boss, you are so kind." Yu Xiaowu tied her hands in front of her body and said coquettishly.
Wu Tao said with a smile: "Did you think I would run over and scold them both? The Beijiang Glass Factory is what it is today, which is the result of the hard work of all of you, and it deserves to be celebrated happily. It's okay, this is human nature."
"The main reason is that it is inseparable from the boss's wise leadership, hehe." Yu Xiaowu became more and more bold as we chatted, and the more bold she became, the more she dared to say anything.
Wu Tao rolled his eyes at her, "How many days have I been leading you?"
"Haha, the boss is so handsome even if he rolls his eyes..." After saying that, Yu Xiaowu turned around and ran away.
Not long after Yu Xiaowu left, Xue Jiaqian knocked on the door and came in.
As a representative of an investment company, this is not the first time for Xue Jiaqian to participate in the bell-ringing ceremony of a listed company.
So Xue Jiaqian faced this matter like a daily business trip.
And after the day's listing schedule is over, there is still enough energy left to discuss the company's business with the boss Wu Tao.
"Boss, stimulated and influenced by the news of China's entry into the WTO, capital and hot money from international speculators are now pouring into the Chinese market at an ever-increasing speed."
"...I think our overseas capital invested by Tianqi should also consider adjusting the investment ratio and appropriately increase China's local investment share, so as to avoid the domestic market being divided up by international capital and losing the opportunity."
This is indeed a problem.
Compared with the memory of China's accession to the WTO in November 2001, China's current schedule for joining the WTO is fully advanced by a year and a half.
This aroused the crazy pursuit of international capital, which also made Wu Tao somewhat unexpected.
However, after Wu Tao pondered, he still insisted: "The overseas capital invested by Tianqi currently remains unchanged. No matter what, we must persist until October next year."
“…In addition, Tianqi Investment’s domestic assets should be enough to support our investment needs. In the next year or so, in addition to daily investment business, you will mainly assist Huayao Real Estate Company to acquire assets in major first-tier cities. land!"
"...Remember, no matter the cost, no matter the cost, the more the better!"
Xue Jiaqian couldn't help but secretly swallow her saliva. What are you doing with so much land? This is really crazy.
However, the boss's ideas are always unexpected and unexpected.
Xue Jiaqian thought for a moment and said nothing except silently writing it down in her notebook.
However, she couldn't help but ask about the investment focus of overseas capital, "From now to October 2001, what will be the main investment center of overseas capital? Is it still shorting the global stock market?"
"Yes, I have already explained the specific strategy to Yingying."
