On Wednesday, September 5th, at 5 pm, Zhou Ming came to the villa that Tong Gang and the others bought in Cambridge. Lin Muqing accompanied Zhou Ming from Harvard to the villa.

Since Lin Muqing joined Zhou Ming on the first day, Lin Muqing has accompanied Zhou Ming to class and school for the past two days. Just like when they first arrived in Hong Kong City, and except for meeting Zella on the first day, they have not encountered anything again in the past two days. But this is normal. Harvard is also a world-class higher education institution. All those who can enter here are high-quality talents. Everyone is self-reliant. People like Little Brooke are only a few.

Comrades, have you found a high-tech company that is easy to manage?

Zhou Ming asked questions as soon as he entered the door. After all, he, Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov are both old acquaintances, so it doesn't matter whether he says hello or not, so Zhou Ming got straight to the point.

Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov didn't mind this. On the contrary, the theme that Zhou Ming mentioned was what they wanted to know the most. Tong Gang waved enthusiastically and asked Zhou Ming to go over and say: We have found a few pretty good companies, and we asked you to come here today for this matter.

Zhou Ming nodded and sat down. Tong Gang handed over a document to Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming looked at him and introduced: Dell Computer Company, a computer company that has been established for only five years. The company's president is Mr. Michael, 24 years old. Five years ago, he founded Dell Company with a total of 1,000 US dollars. Now the assets have exceeded 10 million US dollars. The young Mr. Michael hopes to use this computer technology stock boom to promote the listing of his computer company.

Facing Tong Gang's introduction, Zhou Ming was a little silenced. Although he had a criminal record with Lin Muqing, Zhou Ming had thought that he might hear some familiar names before coming, but he did not expect that Tong Gang would give him such a familiar taste as soon as he came up.

Well, since it's a familiar taste, let's just say it.

Zhou Ming thought this in his heart, and said: I know that Dell Computer Company is using a direct business model to eliminate inventory, which is a way to communicate directly with customers and send orders directly to the company by customers.

Tong Gang gave Zhou Ming a thumbs up: It’s worthy of being Zhou Ming’s little brother, even Dell Company can know it. It seems that you have done a lot of homework.

Zhou Ming smiled awkwardly and thought to himself that he could not know that his favorite computer in his previous life was Dell computer, even if he was called Sha Duotai, so he naturally had some understanding of the development model of Dell.

So Chairman Tong, you are planning to take charge of Dell Company, Zhou Ming asked.

Tong Gang nodded and said: Dell's development history is very fast. Before it is listed, his stock has been hyped up, so he has room to be a dealer. Of course, there is another point. His direct sales model can provide high profits to the company in a short period of time because it eliminates the middlemen, but this approach itself is contrary to the market. It is likely to be excluded by middlemen in the future and also meets short-term conditions.

Zhou Ming did not rush to express his opinion, but asked Li Cheng and Ilbedov first: Do you think so too?

Li Cheng and Ilbedov both nodded, and Zhou Ming shook his head and said: But I think that Dell is a company with great investment value. After its stocks go public, it will rise rapidly like a rocket and will grow into a Fortune 500 company in a few years. What supports all this is his direct sales model.

What Tong Gang wanted to say, but Zhou Ming said first: Chairman Tong, I know, you think his direct sales model will cause conflicts with middlemen, but this is in the computer industry. Judging from the development in recent years, the future development of computers will become faster and faster, and the updates will become faster and faster. Therefore, long-term inventory is unnecessary, which is just in line with the business philosophy of the direct sales model.

There is another point, which is the problem between him and the middlemen. I know that such a job grabbing is as irreconcilable as the revenge of killing his father, but anything can be changed. Zhou Ming said, who stipulates that the middlemen must be middlemen and cannot become customers?

Listening to Zhou Ming's explanation, Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov suddenly realized. Zhou Ming finally said: So if I want to invest in Dell, I agree, but I personally don't agree with it.

Tong Gang nodded, and then helped Zhou Ming turn over the page of Dell. He then introduced: Apple, a veteran computer company in California, had also launched a personal computer revolution in the past, but now the current business situation is getting worse and worse, the sales of the latest products are very poor, but with its background, it can still be packaged.

Zhou Ming still shook his head and said: Like Dell, this company also has great development potential. If you want to invest or even become a shareholder of Apple, I am very supportive, but if you want to be a dealer in Apple, it is not a good choice.

Faced with Zhou Ming's opposition one by one, Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov were not angry. On the contrary, they were both very happy. After all, Zhou Ming was really working hard. Just imagine that if Zhou Ming had not learned about these companies, it would be impossible to calculate the gains and losses in the middle and analyze the matter so thoroughly. Of course, they were also shocked in addition to being happy.

You know, the three of them searched in the stock market for two days before finding these companies, but Zhou Ming had already analyzed it. This is too perverted.

But in fact, Zhou Ming himself felt very distressed. He knew very well that he was not as knowledgeable as pretending, but they were all talking about companies they had heard of. So what can I do to pretend not to understand? More importantly, there is still a part of his own funds in the future. Zhou Ming didn't want to waste his money even with his own money.

Tong Gang then pointed out to Zhou Ming the next company: Activity Company, a company registered in Virginia. It has been established for only two years and was listed along with the high-tech stock market bubble at this moment. It mainly operates computer games business. The company's business looks very good and there is no problem with financial statements, but the company's innovation ability is very poor. Perhaps this can become our banker.

Arts and Energy Company

Zhou Ming searched his mind for a long time but had never heard of the name of this company. He then looked at Lin Muqing again. Lin Muqing shook his head at him, obviously he had never heard of it.

Although I haven't heard of it, it may be that this company has not rushed out of the United States, and I still need to be more cautious.

Under this idea, Zhou Ming nodded silently and asked Tong Gang: Is there any other company?

Tong Gang replied: There are also Quincy Computer Company in Brighton and Taylor Software Company. They are computer software companies that have emerged from this high-tech stock bubble. Their property situation is not bad compared to other companies, but they lack core competitiveness. At the same time, their presidents are not that capable. Therefore, I think these companies that are neither up nor down can be used as a banker.

OK, I know. I will take all the materials from these companies back and read them slowly, but I think Quincy Computer Company will forget it first. After all, it is in Cambridge and was founded by several Harvard graduates. If it is used as a banker, it may cause trouble. Zhou Ming said.

Tong Gang thought about it and replied: It's true, so cross out Quincy and choose one of the two companies: Art and Taylor.

Zhou Ming asked back: Why do you have to choose one of two? Isn’t it better to go to two together? Since these two companies are not big, I think we are fully capable of manipulating them together.

A very simple rhetorical question shocked Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov on the spot.

Indeed, since choosing one of two is so troublesome and a headache, just do it together, isn’t it better to have two incompetent?

It sounds very easy and simple. How many people can you make up your mind after all, sitting in two dealers at the same time is not only as simple as one plus one equals two. It requires more energy to accurately grasp the movements on both sides. This is why even those large conglomerates will not sit in two dealers at the same time without need, just come one by one.

Zhou Ming, are you really sure you want to do this? I know you are very ambitious, but things are not done. Tong Gang advised very tactfully.

Zhou Ming smiled and said: Chairman Tong, of course I understand the problem of sitting in two banks at the same time, but our situation is different. First of all, our goals are those small enterprises, which can be fully controlled by our funds, and then manpower.

Zhou Ming said this and looked at Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov before continuing: Chairman Tong, you are both business tycoons. I think you must have a group of your own traders under your command, right? Then the three of you join forces, can't you still sit in a banker?

And as long as you sit in one banker and there is still one left, I believe my finance class and I can handle it. Zhou Ming asked at the end, may you plan to let me do it alone?

Listening to Zhou Ming's words, Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov were both ashamed because they had never thought about dividing the work and working together. In their thoughts, Zhou Ming did it alone.

But no matter how ashamed, they still have to ask shamelessly: Brother Zhou Ming, but in this way, we are splitting up.

Zhou Ming smiled in his heart. He knew very well that Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov would say this. It was nothing more than getting used to sitting and making money. He was used to having himself to help them make money. But it didn't matter. After all, under the current circumstances, he really needed to rely on them.

So Zhou Ming said: Of course not. With the stable growth point of the military-industrial enterprise sector, we don’t need to withdraw all the money. So since we all have a common amount of money to invest through an investment model, it is not considered a separation.

Faced with Zhou Ming's statement, Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov exchanged glances with each other, and finally Tong Gang said: Well, just do what you said by Zhou Ming, brother Zhou Ming. Let's choose our own companies to study first, but if there is any news, you must tell the other party as soon as possible.

Zhou Ming shrugged meaninglessly and said: Of course.

Since that's the case, it's not too late. After all, the bubble of high-tech stocks has been formed now, and no one knows when it will be pierced. Time is very tight. Tong Gang said.

Li Cheng and Ilbedov also agreed with Tong Gang's words, but when they were about to leave and separate, Tong Gang's cell phone suddenly rang, Tong Gang connected and then showed a very confused expression.

It was from a stock brokerage company. He said something went wrong with my account and I thought I had to go to New York. Tong Gang said.

OK, I hope there is no big problem, otherwise, if you lack the funds from Mr. Tong Gang, our banker may not be able to complete it well. Ilbedov said.

Compared to Ilbedov's joke, Zhou Ming frowned unnaturally and had an ominous premonition in his heart.
