Chapter 351 Who Should Look Down On

  Central America, Nebraska.

  A blond and blue-eyed stewardess in uniform stood at the door of the cabin and gave the passengers off the plane as a courtesy.

  Xia Jing walked in front, and Bill Gates was one step behind.

After getting off the gangway, stepping on the ground, Xia Jingxing turned around and took a look at this big toy-Bombardier BD-700 Global Express!

  The price is more than 40 million U.S. dollars, and it can take 19 passengers.

  "Dalun, how do you feel? In fact, you can also buy one, which is not expensive anyway.

  With it, your transportation will be much more convenient. "

   Seeing Xia Jingxing getting off the plane and still looking at his favorite plane, Bill Gates smiled and said something.

  Two generations of human beings, Xia Jingxing was actually the first time he took a private jet.

  He had seen it on the Internet before, but all he saw was pictures and videos.

  Into the cabin, I felt quite different. I personally realized what it means: the boring and boring life of the rich.

   "Buy, why not buy?"

  Xia Jingxing shrugged and said, "But I dare not recruit such a young and beautiful stewardess. Mrs. Gates still has a big heart."

  Bill Gates' eyes narrowed with a smile, and he pointed to Xia Jingxing and said, "You little guy, there are so many associations in a day."

  Xia Jingxing and Gates chatted out of the airport, got in a car together, and drove outside under the **** of a car at the front and the back.

  Through the car window, I glanced at the outside world, a very ordinary town.

  The small town is called Omaha, with a population of 400,000, but it is the largest city in the state.

  And there is a well-known company in the city called Berkshire Hathaway.

  At the beginning of May every year, investors from all over the world will pour into this small city like a pilgrimage to hold a general meeting of shareholders.

  There were more than 50,000 people in the meeting, and 10,000 of them were Chinese.

  The meeting was crowded with people, and the general meeting of shareholders was no less effective than the concert.

  In previous lives, you can often see photos of celebrities and successful people sharing meetings here on social networking sites.

  In fact, these people are not micro-businessmen, but they are engaged in selling knowledge for a fee.

  As long as you are a shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway, you can receive four tickets.

  On the day of the conference, there will be a special "Shareholder Shopping Day" event.

  Others are not clear. Anyway, a shareholder meeting has definitely boosted the local shopping and tourism GDP.

  Xia Jingxing glanced out the window a few times, then retracted his gaze and began to chat with Bill Gates.

   "Why doesn't Mr. Bar move to New York to live? The company has always been here?"

  Gates smiled and said: "He was born here and grew up here. Maybe he has feelings for this land!"

  Xia Jingxing nodded. In any case, Old Man Ba ​​has absolutely nothing to say about the care of his hometown. She is shrinking in a small city and staying in the nest for decades. He is definitely an outlier among the rich.

  "Dalun, I heard that your Lixia Fund has created an annualized rate of return of nearly 700% in one year?"

  Xia Jingxing gave Gates a glance and smiled and said, "Even you know?"

   "It has spread all over the investment circle, and many rich Americans are gearing up to invest in you."

  Xia Jingxing thought, this news spread so fast!

  In fact, he underestimated the interest of the rich in making money.

  These people have parties every day, holing their minds to mix with the upper class. The main purpose is to exchange resources and find ways to make money.

  A newly-emerged hedge fund, whose investment performance is so good, how can it not arouse the interest of the rich and become a post-dinner talk.

  However, he felt that Gates’ words were still too exaggerated.

  It earns several times the income in a year, and there is no skyrocketing. Besides, the size of the fund is still so small, with only tens of millions of initial capital.

  Compared with the established hedge funds that make billions of dollars a year, Lixia Fund is still far behind.

  The most lacking is the background, in fact, it is to prove their long-term ability to make money.

   Gates said that many wealthy people are ready to invest in Vision Capital.

   "Really? It seems that my charge is still low."

  Xia Jingxing didn't go to reveal it, and followed Gates' words to joke.

   "If 30% is divided, it will increase?"

  Gates took it seriously and asked in surprise.

  "You care about us so much, is it that Waterfall Investment also intends to invest in us?"

  Gates smiled slightly, "You still know me very carefully!"

  Waterfall Investment is the name of Gates’ family office. This broken name is also because there are dozens of investment companies with the same name in the United States, which can provide cover for Gates’ investment behavior.

  When Microsoft went public, Gates held 44.8% of the shares. Over the years, there were only a few points left in the reduction, and all the cashed out funds went to waterfall investment.

  Waterfall investment is characterized by diversified investment to reduce risk exposure to the technology industry.

  One, the focus is on the United States, Canada and other countries. Investment areas include transportation, retail, communications, entertainment, catering, finance and insurance.

  Secondly, in recent years, it has increased its investment in emerging countries such as China. Investment areas include retail, automobile manufacturing, entertainment, the Internet, and communications.

   There is a joke in the previous life that Gates does not reduce his 44.8% stake in Microsoft. When the market value of Microsoft reaches more than one trillion US dollars, it can be worth six to seven hundred billion US dollars.

  But because the stock was reduced, the investment was given to Waterfall Investment, and the final value was only about 100 billion U.S. dollars.

   is equivalent to saying that the investment behavior in the past two to three decades has been completely at a loss.

  Doing nothing and always holding Microsoft stocks is the most profitable investment method.

  Compared with Gates, the current Microsoft CEO Ballmer has made the completely opposite choice, killing him and not reducing his holdings of Microsoft stocks, and finally he is rich!

  Of course, Gates’ choice is correct, he is constantly optimizing his asset portfolio.

  Even if Microsoft suddenly goes bankrupt, Gates will not return to abject poverty. It can be said that he will not be hurt.

  This is the real family business that can be passed on!

  Gates thought for a while, Xia Jing acted for everyone’s common interest on Facebook, and chose to leave Facebook to concentrate on investing and sacrifice a lot.

   And the other party’s investment is not bad at all. Supporting one or two is not a big problem.

  So he said, "Okay, I will let Larson talk to you."

  Larson is the manager of the Gates family's wealth. Xia Jingxing knew this person, nodded in satisfaction, and took another business.

  To make money in the United States, without a few influential Americans, make too much money, which is to make people jealous.

  Of course, Vision Capital does not sacrifice any interests. In addition to concluding an interest alliance, management fees and dividends can also recover part of the income.

  As long as it is operated properly, it will not suffer too much.

   After chatting, I arrived at my destination.

   Parked the car on the side of the road, Xia Jingxing and Gates got out of the car.

  Xia Jingxing looked at the small two-story building next to the main road in front of it. The whole body was gray-white. There was a large yard in front of the building, surrounded by neatly constructed green plants.

  There are no iron gates, iron fences, nor did the security guards see it.

  Xia Jingxing looked around, this is an ordinary middle-class community, and the architectural style of nearby houses is similar.

  Life is so simple, there is no one.

  I can only say that the realm is different.

  Hearing the sound of the car, Buffett walked out with a ping pong racket.

  The old man is wearing a sports suit with big beads of sweat on his head. He looks no different from an ordinary old man who exercises in the morning.

   Seeing Bill Gates, the old man stepped forward and gave a hug, "Hi, Bill, good morning!"

"Good morning!"

   Gates finished greeting, and introduced Buffett to Xia Jingxing next to him.

   "Oh, are you that Chinese kid?"

  Buffett raised the table tennis racket in his hand and asked: "Can you play table tennis?"

  Xia Jingxing smiled, oh, who is it to look down on?
