Arrived at the destination, the time was less than 06:30, and the appointed time was seven o'clock.

Chen Qing's time is not so free.

There are other arrangements.

Just entering a hotel box with an advance reservation number, Jiang Shanwu, who had been completely tamed by Chen Qing as her little follower, brought a young girl in a pink coat and white trousers into the door.

This is a girl in her twenties, with shoulder-length black hair, and a face that looks very pure at first glance, making it easy to think of the kind of female classmates in middle school.However, if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that although the girl was very restrained after entering the door, her eyes could not help but flicker around, then fell on Chen Qing, and quickly retracted.

Chen Qing dismissed the other waitresses temporarily, leaving only Jiang Shanwu behind. This time, she took a look at the girl in front of her and was very satisfied. She couldn't help but said, "This dress is too rustic."

The girl seemed to shrink back when she heard this, and she couldn't help but glance at the Chanel suit on Chen Qing's body. She didn't know what Chanel was, but the girl in front of her was not a status, it was just that suit, which was enough to make her feel ashamed. And extremely envious.

"Remember to help her take care of it," Chen Qing told Jiang Shanwu, and then looked at the girl: "Shen Yue, right?"

The girl nodded quickly, and then asked in a tone: "Well, hello, this one, miss?"

Chen Qing smiled and didn't mean to introduce herself, but said again: "Shen Yue's name is also a bit rusty, and the fact that you seduced your colleagues in the unit and got knocked on the door may not be reported here, but you should change your identity. Let me think about it." , let's call it Shen, um, Lige, Shen Lige, "Li" for leaving, "Song" for singing, this is good, very literary, that person likes literature and art. I suddenly discovered that I have a better name than the boss Talent, tsk."

Jiang Shanwu, who was standing obediently beside her, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

When the girl whose name was changed heard Chen Qing talk about her privacy, her eyes immediately turned red, and she retorted in a low voice: "I didn't seduce him, it was him, he is the section chief, I can't help it."

"It's none of my business," Chen Qing shrugged, "I just want to give you a job, come to a middle school here to be a teacher, and seduce your principal, would you like to do it?"

The girl shook her head directly: "I don't," she turned around as she said, "I, I think I should go."

"Oh, let's go then."

The girl twisted her body halfway, tears falling down, she didn't move at all, she paused, and then said in a low voice: "I, seduce, that, can I continue to be a teacher after it's over, the one with weaving?"

"Of course, maybe you can let him marry you and become the principal's wife, but when the time comes, you will have to show your current acting skills," Chen Qing nodded, and directly took out a photo and handed it to him. In the past: "Look first, a very handsome man, although his age is a bit behind you, it's not a loss."

The girl paused, then stepped forward, picked up the photo and glanced at it. He was indeed a very elegant and handsome man.

"Are you satisfied?" Chen Qing asked again, but the other party naturally didn't answer and didn't pursue it, and said, "Then it's settled, and I will change my identity recently, and I will be able to join the job within a month. Good news for you."

The girl put down the photo and asked in a low voice, "I...don't know who you are yet?"

Chen Qing seemed to think of something again, she said to herself, motioned to Jiang Shanwu, and said, "I almost forgot, if you want the horse to run, you must give it to someone."

As Chen Qing said, Jiang Shanwu had already taken out a thick stack of banknotes and handed them over.

"This is 2 yuan. If things are done, there is another [-] yuan," Chen Qing said, "If it can't be done, since I can put you in that school, I can also let you go back and forth," said Wan told Jiang Shanwu: "Take her away, don't forget to take care of it, it's too dirty."

When the two left, Chen Qing also picked up the photo again, tilted her head to look at it, and muttered to herself: "No wonder Mo Mo's face is hard, this is obviously inherited from her father." Looking at the large round dining table, his eyes seemed to be looking into the distance: "The boss is too lucky to meet such a caring little padded jacket like me."

Chapter 1054 Heavy Industry

The founder of the Carlyle Fund, David Rubinstein, arrived at the hotel in the west of Suzhou on time at seven o'clock, and saw a Chinese girl with dimples in her smile. The first reaction of the middle-aged people is still emotion.

As one of the two most important lovers of Simon Westeros in China, compared to outsiders, Rubinstein is very clear that Chen Qing is actually the same as Lin Su, who was listed on the Forbes 400 Rich List in the United States this year. The status is still the net worth, so it is inevitable to feel that people are more popular than others.

The Carlyle Fund was established in 1987 and has been struggling for nearly ten years. Rubinstein's current net worth is only 3000 to [-] million US dollars.

Fortunately, as George Soros officially joined Carlyle as a partner a few months ago, and even further got on the line of the thriving Westeros system, the previous decade has been relatively small. Carlyle Fund finally ushered in a big turning point.

Especially last month, after tireless contact here, the Carlyle Fund received a one-time investment of 10 billion US dollars from Westeros.

The benefits of the Westeros system investing in the Carlyle Fund even surpassed the joining of George Soros.Therefore, although the Westeros Corporation has made a clear limit on this fund, which is basically just borrowed from Carlyle, David Rubinstein still shows great importance.

In any case, there is absolutely nothing wrong with investing with the Westeros system.

Let’s talk about the 10 billion US dollars. I personally talked to Westeros once. The arrangement there was to invest all of them in China’s heavy industry, and to be precise, it was construction machinery related to construction, transportation, and mining.

With the rapid expansion of the scale of the Carlyle Fund this year, the previous investment strategy of only focusing on the domestic defense field of the United States must also need to be changed. Diversified investment is an inevitable choice.Since Simon Westero personally pointed out a way, David Rubinstein came to China a week ago to investigate the status quo of related industries in China.

Just when he was about to return to the United States, he received instructions from Westeros, requiring Carlyle to invite Chen Qing to serve as a government policy advisor for all projects involving Westeros system funds in China.

Carlyle's early breakthrough was to obtain a large number of defense orders by inviting former senior Washington officials to serve as executives or consultants.Even if there is no request from Westeros, since he decided to do business in China, Carlyle will establish a good relationship with the Chinese authorities. Since the other party has made an arrangement, even if David Rubinstein thinks that Chen Qing's weight is a bit low, It didn't even carry much weight at all, but I agreed anyway.

This is also the reason for this meeting today.

After greeting each other, David Rubinstein took his assistant and sat down at a round table that could accommodate seven or eight people. On Chen Qing's side, she was the only one seated, and two confidant maids were in charge of receiving the dishes. , not wanting unrelated people to hear the conversation here, the hotel waiter could only walk to the door.

Everyone sat down and ordered the waitress to serve the food. Chen Qing turned to Rubinstein: "David, you have been in China for half a month. How do you like Chinese food?"

David Rubinstein is a very talkative person. He smiled and said: "It's amazing, I think I may never be able to do without Chinese food in the future."

"Actually, the boss is also like this. However, Westerners may not be used to some of the tastes. Fortunately, there are many kinds of Chinese cuisine. Anyone who comes to this country can find what he likes."

"Indeed."

The serving here is very efficient. After a brief chat, the two waiters have already brought some food.After all, they are foreign guests, and the meal sharing mode is carefully adopted here. In fact, Chen Qing also likes this way of eating more and more, instead of a group of people stirring up and down on a plate.

After a simple greeting, the two sides quickly got to the point.

"So, David, what do you think of the batch of corporate information we provided here?"

David Rubinstein was obviously jerky but still insisted on eating food with chopsticks, while saying: "Frankly speaking, Chen, the six companies I personally visited in a week gave me the same feeling, rough, backward, chaotic, And the scale is very small, just like Xugong Machinery Group in Jiangsu, whose revenue in the past fiscal year was equivalent to only 2.6 million U.S. dollars. This is already the top construction machinery giant in China. Caterpillar, the largest construction machinery manufacturer, had a revenue of US$143 billion last year, and its net profit alone reached US$9.5 million.”

Chen Qing's smile remained unchanged: "So, David, you are not optimistic about the boss's choice?"

David Rubinstein did not deny it, saying: "If it weren't for the investment strategy that Simon personally finalized, I would never invest a penny in these fields in China."

Chen Qing was very patient and asked, "What about now?"

"Of course it follows Simon's thinking," Rubinstein said with a smile on his lips, "I just hope that this investment will not become a Waterloo for Simon, otherwise, Carlyle will also be unlucky."

Chen Qing was half-joking: "Actually, if you can prove that the boss made a mistake in his judgment, it would be considered a pioneering work. At least so far, of course, it does not mean that the boss has not made mistakes, but in the general trend of many industries, the boss has always been correct."

"Yeah, so Carlyle is going to follow up with the same bet."

"You won't be disappointed. However, David, I also hope that you will remember that the interests of the Westeros system must come first."

"Of course, the customer is our god."

Chen Qing nodded, and said again: "Why don't we talk about the specifics, do you have a definite goal?"

David Rubinstein raised his free left hand and raised two fingers: "Two, the XCMG I just mentioned counts as one, and the other is in Hunan. This is a private company named Sany Heavy Industry."

Rubinstein’s research and investigation goals during this period are actually materials provided by Cersei Capital’s China Economic Research Institute.

Now that her boss has given her the title of a government policy advisor, Chen Qing also dutifully read the information of many companies. When Rubinstein mentioned it, Chen Qing immediately had the general situation of these two companies in her mind.

Xuzhou Construction Machinery Group is a large state-owned enterprise. Rubinstein just mentioned a revenue of 2.6 million US dollars, equivalent to 22 billion yuan, which is already a considerable scale in China.

The comparison is another Sany Heavy Industry. Unlike XCMG's involvement in agricultural machinery, automobile manufacturing, port machinery, etc., Sany is only a company that only dabbles in construction machinery, to be precise, concrete conveying equipment.

The reason why it was selected by the research institute is mainly because Sanyue has achieved a technological breakthrough in the pump truck equipment that transports concrete to high-rise buildings. With high growth, it became a star private enterprise in related fields for a while.

In Chen Qing's view, such high-growth private enterprises in China are the most favored investment targets on Wall Street.

Thinking about this, Chen Qing asked: "Sany understands very well. David, why did you choose XCMG? The company's product line is very complicated, and it is expected to lose money this year?"

David Rubinstein did not directly answer Chen Qing's question, but said: "I have communicated with Sany's team, and I have also seen their factories and products. This is a company with strict management, clear systems and clear development goals. The company and its management are also very good. I hope to develop it into a comprehensive giant of construction machinery and excavation machinery through capital injection and technical support. As for XCMG, if we can talk about it, I hope it can be restructured to integrate China's highly competitive agricultural machinery Machinery and other businesses are divested, and we concentrate on the development of port machinery and mining machinery and equipment.”

"Construction machinery, excavation machinery, port machinery, mining machinery..." Chen Qing grasped the key points skillfully, and said, "David, your thinking is very good, but have you ever thought that if things don't go according to your thinking What about development?"

"What do you mean?"

"Let's not talk about other things. If you only invest in these two companies, do you think Carlyle can spend 10 billion US dollars here?"

"Of course not, but this is only one aspect. Apart from construction machinery, Simon is also interested in ships, railways and other fields, which are also very expensive industries. Chen, you must know that I don't plan to do it in a year or two. Spend all the 10 billion US dollars, and it is estimated that the entire investment will be completed, which will take about three to five years.”

"Well, what I mean is, I think the boss should have the same idea," Chen Qing said: "That is, invest in multiple companies at the same time, give corresponding support, let them compete freely, and finally weed out the weak and retain the strong." .According to what we say in China, this is called... Uh, I don’t know how to translate it. In order to get the most ferocious insect king, someone put together poisonous insects such as scorpions, spiders, and centipedes to kill each other, and finally left The one that comes down is the strongest one."

"I see, it sounds cruel, but..." David Rubenstein thought for a moment and said, "If Simon agrees, I have no problem."

The main reason is that there is indeed too much money in hand.

If you only invest in the two companies selected this time, according to Rubenstein's thinking, one-tenth of the $10 billion in funds will not be used.But if you invest in multiple projects at the same time, although David Rubinstein doesn't know the allusion to raising Gu, Chen Qing's idea of ​​survival of the fittest is actually worth practicing.
