Softbank group and son Zhengyi have far more popularity than other world-class investment institutions in the domestic Internet industry and ordinary people.
Because Softbank once invested in Alibaba, the parent company of Taobao, a domestic Internet giant known to women and children, and Softbank is also the largest shareholder of Alibaba. President Ma, the founder of Alibaba, also has a very good personal relationship with son Zhengyi. President Ma is one of the directors of Softbank group.
The reason why Softbank group can achieve today's investment empire is that Softbank has invested in Yahoo, the top giant in the Internet industry in the United States and even the world. The other achievement is that Softbank has invested in Alibaba, and son Zhengyi, the founder of Softbank, is known as the "investment Godfather" of the science and technology industry in Japan and even the world!
When Fang zhe shook hands with sun Zhengyi, he looked carefully at the famous figure in the investment circle.
He is not tall and handsome. Even because of his age, he has some age spots on his face and some sparse bald hair. However, such an ugly man has created such great achievements and built a Softbank empire with assets of hundreds of billions of dollars.
One cannot judge by appearance, and the sea cannot be measured!
"Nice to meet you, Mr. son Zhengyi!" Fang zhe said the proper polite words in Chinese, but the respect for son Zhengyi in his tone is very sincere. Regardless of national and ethnic identity, the achievements of son Zhengyi and Softbank in the investment community are indeed worthy of Fang Zhe's use of the word "respect"!
Sun Zhengyi's face shows a kind smile. The reason why he is kind is that sun Zhengyi is seven years older than Arima, who was born in 1964. Moreover, Fang Zhe, a 23-year-old young man, tries to pretend to be a kind elder in front of Fang Zhe, who is less than half his age.
Seeing sun Zhengyi's expression, Fang zhe affirmed his previous guess. Before, Fang zhe had been speculating about sun Zhengyi's purpose.
After thinking about it, the biggest possibility is that son Zhengyi and Softbank want to invest in Huizhong. If it's not for this reason, is it difficult that son Zhengyi is just curious about his appearance and wants to meet him for tea?
After the two sat down and exchanged greetings, sun Zhengyi gradually brought the topic to the point.
"Mr. Fang Zhe, may I call you Fang zhe? I always think it will be strange to add the word" sir! "
Hearing sun Zhengyi's words translated by the translator, Fang zhe suddenly felt deja vu in his heart. After thinking about it, he found that it seems that he was a guest at the home of famous investor Liang Botao in Hong Kong last time. He also said similar words. It seems that these people in the investment circle have a special routine!
Fang zhe nodded his head slightly to promise, and sun Zhengyi continued:
"Fang Zhe, in less than two years since you founded Huizhong, you have built Huizhong into one of China's four Internet giants and made great achievements in the global game industry. I personally admire you very much.
Your abilities and achievements are far more than when I was your age. It can even be said that almost no one in the world has achieved such great achievements at your age! "
"Sure enough, the routine is the same!" Fang zhe listened to sun Zhengyi's words and remembered that he was flattered by the other zhe at Liang Botao's house after he was familiar with it.
Originally, Fang zhe only thought that this kind of thing would only happen to those not so top-level investors of Liang Botao. Who would have thought that sun Zhengyi, the founder of Softbank with a 100 billion asset Empire, was just like them.
Since they are all the same, it's easy to do! Fang zhe was just ready to relax his vigilance, and then suddenly woke up. Everything is the same? Son Zhengyi is the top investor in the world's science and technology industry. How can his vision and ability not reach the top level?
Perhaps the reason why Sun Zhengyi made such a routine opening speech is to let Fang zhe relax his vigilance!
Sure enough, the subsequent conversation showed the gap between son Zhengyi and Liang Botao as a top investor.
"Huizhong has now become one of the giants in China's Internet industry and has great development potential in the world, especially the chat software wechat launched by Huizhong in the world. I heard that its Chinese name is" wechat ". It's small information. I'm very optimistic about its development potential and future, very, very optimistic!"
Son Zhengyi deliberately emphasized his great value for wechat. Then he said:
"However, I am very optimistic about wechat. I believe there are many companies and investment institutions all over the world. I am optimistic about its potential and future and its mobile IM industry!"
When son Zhengyi said this, he stopped talking. Fang zhe thought carefully about the words translated to him by the translators. When a top investor like son Zhengyi talked to him about things, it was naturally impossible to say nonsense without a target. Therefore, Fang zhe believed that his words must have a deeper meaning. Fang Zhe thought for a moment, but there was a deep anxiety and sense of crisis in his head.
This anxiety and sense of crisis began to appear in Fang Zhe's mind since wechat occupied more and more cities and territories around the world and more and more users. However, in the past, Fang Zhe always thought that this was because he was worried about the global competitors of wechat such as Tencent and Facebook, and that their actions would hinder or even defeat the global development of wechat.
Therefore, Fang zhe pays special attention and vigilance to Tencent, overseas Facebook and mysapce. Their actions against wechat are firmly controlled by Fang Zhe.
Therefore, Fang zhe has always believed that his anxiety and sense of crisis mainly come from this. As long as wechat can rise in the world and defeat them in the future, his anxiety and sense of crisis will naturally decrease or even disappear.
Of course, it is impossible to disappear completely. No matter how big a company is, without a sense of crisis and the mentality of being vigilant in times of peace, it may face collapse at any time. Kodak, Yahoo, Nokia and other former industry giants are all like this!
Now it seems that there should be a deeper reason for these anxieties and feelings of crisis, that is, the top capital giants and governments all over the world.
These obstacles to the rise of wechat have been thought about many times since Fang zhe planned to be a wechat. Fang zhe has always been careful to deal with them, but now, standing at different heights, his horizons and thinking are naturally different. Fang Zhe, who was just reborn to start a business in the past, is indeed too arrogant, ambitious and talented, I don't know the heaven and earth.
Now Huizhong is becoming bigger and bigger. As the founder of Huizhong, Fang Zhe, while adding supreme achievements and glory, also increasingly feels that the world essentially still follows the law of the jungle of the jungle.
Mr. son Zhengyi said that he and many investment institutions around the world are optimistic about the potential and future of wechat. The deeper meaning is that they want to share the cake, or more directly, they want to share the cake!
