My Age of Investment

Three hundred and forty-eight, top traders

After all, I still wanted to hear if the girls in Wanwan were as sweet as the legends said. Early the next morning, Xia Jingxing took the Queen's lawyer Andrew and went to visit Liu Jinhang.

It was a girl who opened the door, about twenty-four or five years old, with a pretty appearance.

But it's just pretty!

Xia Jingxing arranged for someone to transfer 10 million U.S. dollars to the First Securities account, and after repaying the money, he declined Liu Jinhang's lunch invitation, took his leave and left.

Then, under the arrangement of Wallace, he and Liu Hai met with the heads of the California Police Pension Fund and several family offices.

As soon as the investment performance was highlighted, several institutions were interested and expressed their willingness to learn more.

The fundraising process generally takes two to three months, or even longer.

Leaving the matchmaking work to Liu Hai, Xia Jingxing flew to New York with Zhang Chenguang, who had resigned from Facebook and turned into a security consultant for Envision Capital.

…………

…………

Inside an upscale hotel near 57th Street in Manhattan.

Xia Jingxing chatted happily with a Chinese middle-aged man in his forties with a thin face and gold-rimmed glasses.

"Mr. Jiang, I have actually asked you out for a long time, and I finally found a chance to meet you today."

Jiang Ping waved his hand, "Just call me Peter!"

Xia Jingxing nodded, "Okay, Peter, I have an appointment with you today, mainly because I want to talk to you about cooperation."

Jiang Ping nodded. In his opinion, the other party was very sincere.

A few months ago, a headhunter contacted him.

Said that a newly established Chinese hedge fund company intends to invite him to join.

But when he asked, the fund management scale was only over 30 million US dollars, and he was speechless for a moment. He earned more than that in a year.

The headhunter told him that there is a young technology rich man named Darren Xia behind this fund, who is very promising.

Then he went to check,

It turned out to be the boss of Facebook and Youtube.

This got him a lot of interest.

However, Facebook and YouTube had not yet completed their B round of financing with a valuation of tens of billions of dollars, so it can only be said that they are not bad.

After thinking about it, he still rejected the olive branch offered by Envision Capital.

Unexpectedly, a few months later, Envision Capital once again entrusted a headhunter to find him.

This time he didn't refuse again, but chose to meet Xia Jingxing before talking.

"Peter, Vision Capital is building a second hedge fund - Xiaoman Fund."

Xia Jingxing stared at the other party, and slowly said: "This fund has reached fundraising intentions with more than six institutions, and the intentional amount exceeds 300 million US dollars.

According to our plan, this fund must raise a minimum of 500 million US dollars, and there is no upper limit! "

Jiang Ping's expression was normal, without any fluctuations.

Thinking of the other party's identity, Xia Jingxing said with a smile, "Of course, I know, this amount of assets under management is not worth mentioning in front of Lehman Brothers.

But what I emphasize is that this is a Chinese hedge fund.

The manager of our first hedge fund is also a Chinese, and his name is Liu Hai.

What I can guarantee is that in Vision Capital, people of yellow race have no promotion ceiling and will not encounter racial discrimination and unfair treatment. "

Xia Jingxing's words were very simple, but every sentence touched Jiang Ping's heart.

He joined Lehman Brothers in 1995, and has worked there for ten years.

In the past ten years, the global economy was turbulent, and it was difficult for fund managers to hand over a stable report card.

However, his investment performance has remained stable at an annualized rate of return of 30% to 100%.

With this achievement, he became one of the traders who contributed the most to Lehman Brothers.

However, his pay and harvest are not proportional.

During his ten years at Lehman Brothers, his average commission was between 3% and 4%.

Until last year, 11% was mentioned in one step, and the cash part only accounted for 3%.

You must know that on Wall Street, the performance commission is generally 10% to 15%.

In the ten years he worked at Lehman, he helped the company earn more than one billion dollars.

But all of this did not make the company look differently. Even people with a lower level than him had higher performance gains than him.

The company promoted him, the so-called senior vice president, SVP, this kind of position is everywhere on Wall Street, Goldman Sachs has 12,000 VP vice presidents.

In fact, he has long been dissatisfied with Lehman Brothers, but there are many reasons for his reluctance to leave.

The most important point is that I didn't find a good next home.

The management scale of Lixia Fund of Vision Capital is only about 30 million US dollars, and when he was invited, it had only been established for more than half a year.

If there is a scale of hundreds of millions of dollars, maybe he agreed to join at that time.

But it's not too late now. He heard Xia Jingxing say that the size of Xiaoman's fund is at least 500 million US dollars, and he immediately became interested.

It's just that he has a cold temper and doesn't like to show his mood on his face.

Jiang Ping said: "May I ask, what kind of products does this fund invest in?"

Xia Jingxing replied: "It hasn't been formally finalized yet. If you are the fund manager, it can be left to you to decide."

Jiang Ping smiled lightly, which showed that the other party still fully trusted him, otherwise he would not have given such high authority.

Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "I have inquired very clearly about your past employment experience.

The reason why I came here today is because I believe that the cooperation between the two parties is a win-win thing! "

In his previous life, Xia Jingxing had a master's degree in financial engineering from Stanford, while Jiang Ping and him were in the same major in the same school.

He still knows this senior well.

Born in 1965, less than 16 years old, he entered the University of Science and Technology of China with the top score in the Yangzhou college entrance examination, and then studied in Princeton and got a doctorate in chemistry.

Later, he studied finance by himself, and entered Stanford to obtain a master's degree in finance.

In addition to the working experience of Lehman, he joined the leading hedge fund SAC in 2006 as the managing director, and ranked among the "Top 100 Traders in the World" with an annual income of more than 100 million US dollars.

But within two years of working, he was squeezed out in the company's internal strife, and was charged with unwarranted charges such as "insider trading" and "sexual harassment of male subordinates".

Later, I simply started my own business, established an asset management company, and took care of my own assets, which was also very successful.

He definitely has the ability, but he is underappreciated and has not encountered a platform that is most suitable for him.

"I'm a little curious, isn't the size of your first fund just over US$30 million?

After only one year, the second fund has become at least 500 million US dollars? "

The matter was very important, Jiang Ping did not accept the invitation hastily, and wanted to know more carefully.

Xia Jingxing took the handbag next to him, took out a stack of documents, and handed it to Jiang Ping.

Jiang Ping took it and looked at the fund performance statement in his hand, frowning more and more.

"In one year, 36.25 million became 245 million? Almost 7 times?"

Xia Jingxing nodded, "Yes, this is the return on investment of our first fund."

Jiang Ping originally thought that most of the funds from the Xiaoman Fund came from Xia Jingxing.

After seeing this stack of materials, he changed his mind.

And the most exaggerated thing is that this is a stock-oriented hedge fund, and all of them are long.

He is engaged in finance, so he naturally knows how awesome it is, it's so awesome that it's a little unreal.

As if seeing the doubt on the other party's face, Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "You can also visit our company, after all, seeing is believing, and hearing is not."

"Is this okay?"

Jiang Ping felt that it was inappropriate to go to see other people's secrets before he agreed to join Vision Capital.

"It's okay, I can't show you the most sensitive ones for now, you can look at the investment records that we have cleared."

Jiang Ping felt itchy in his heart. He really wanted to take a closer look at this company, so he said straightforwardly, "Okay, then I'll take the liberty."
