Zhang Lei is the founder of Gaoling Capital, and the recent addition of Singapore nationality has caused a great sensation.
Many netizens have asked why this is why they want to join other nationalities.
He can be said to be a figure in China, and many of the businesses we are familiar with are invested by him.
Every time he makes a business investment, he has a strong business vision.
Zhang Lei is also known as the "Oriental Buffett", so why does he have such business acumen?
Zhang Lei's experience:
It's hard for us to imagine that more than ten years ago, everyone didn't know who Zhang Lei was, and he was a migrant worker who made money by working like everyone else.
But what I didn't expect was that it only took me 15 years to become a wage earner who no one cared about, and finally had assets of more than 500 billion.
So how did he do this, we still have to start with his life experience.
In 1972, Zhang Lei was born in a rural family in Zhumadian, Henan Province.
In his exam for elementary school to junior high school, he was one point higher than his admission score, and he really didn't even go to junior high school.
For many years, until he was in high school, he saw a book called "Capital" by chance
After reading it, he was deeply attracted by the content and thought how could there be such a good book.
From then on, he has to compare ** or value in everything.
It wasn't until he read that book that he seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and he read hard every day.
When he took the college entrance examination, his score was unusually high, and he stepped on the heads of tens of thousands of candidates, and he had the top liberal arts in the Henan college entrance examination.
When filling in the college entrance examination, he was different from others and chose the most unpopular major at that time, the international finance major of Chinese Renmin University.
What you must know is that at that time, our China was not very developed, in the 90s.
China is still 11 years away from joining the WTO.
If nothing else, if you ask anyone at that time, you may not know what financial management is.
In the end, Zhang Lei relied on his school to become famous and his identity as a champion to apply for the opportunity to study at Yale University.
Here he found a mentor who could influence his life, and he is also a very famous investment godfather.
When she was studying, her mentor asked her to use her own methods to learn an investment report.
In the next few days, he wrote his investment report every day, and finally handed it to the teacher.
It was a book report that was more than three centimeters thick, and his teacher was surprised when he saw it.
The tutor has never seen such a down-to-earth and hard-working student, and he also has a different view of Zhang Lei, and Zhang Lei's mentor also plans to invest in Zhang Lei.
It was also under the guidance and help of his teacher that Zhang Lei successfully joined the investment in global emerging markets.
At that time, Zhang Lei's main investments were in South Africa, Southeast Asia, and major enterprises in our country.
During this period, he successfully served as the first China Chief Representative of the New York Stock Exchange.
During this time, he also established the Hong Kong and Beijing offices of the New York Stock Exchange.
For ordinary people, his big stage is enough for him to play for a lifetime, but it is not until after China joins the WTO.
Zhang Lei seems to see the great potential hidden in China's big market, and it seems that he can see that many legends of getting rich are being born.
In 2005, he made another decision that made him turn the gears of fate and resigned from the Chinese shipbuilding industry.
He wants to personally invest in China's construction.
Not to mention, even his mentor saw that China had great potential at that time, and his mentor was very supportive of Zhang Lei's return to China to start a business.
His mentor also gave Zhang Lei $30 million before he left, so that he could have his own entrepreneurial capital after returning to China.
At that time, the US dollar was the most valuable, and there was a lot of RMB that slipped down.
In 2001, it was also a low period of the Internet, and Ma Huateng had just founded QQ not long ago.
It is understood that Ma Huateng's money was only 10,000 yuan when he was poorest at that time.
Although he also used a lot of QQ users at that time, the people who invested in him couldn't see the way to make money, so they left him.
Even Ma Huateng himself didn't know what to do and how to save these.
You should not know that the people who used QQ at that time were called the three low people, which was characterized by low education, low income and low age.
At that time, everyone thought that normal people who play QQ ah, everyone is using MSN, and because of this, there are still most people who are not optimistic about Tencent.
In the end, the big guy who invested in Tencent couldn't see the prospects, so he walked one, and everyone saw that someone left! Then I'll go too.
No one wants to stay in a place where there is no prospect.
Until finally, Zhang Chaoyang, the founder of Sohu, was willing to pay a minimum of 600,000 yuan to trade with Tencent.
Then who is willing to accept it, Ma Huateng thought about it at that time, and was finally ready to sell QQ.
At this time, there was a flip, and a young man who seemed very different found Ma Huateng and said.
I can bring you back from the dead, he is our protagonist Zhang Lei.
At this time, Zhang Lei was arrogant and returned to China with 30 million US dollars from his mentor, and founded his own company, Gaoling Capital.
After that, he will start his investment path, and during this period, he has no company that can satisfy him.
Until one day, when he went to a shopping mall to hang out, he found that almost all the goods were printed with QQ numbers.
This made him see the business opportunity, QQ has a lot of users.
At this time, Zhang Lei seemed to have seen prey, thinking that Tencent had occupied most of the Internet opportunities.
Moreover, it can improve the efficiency of the food industry, and it is very likely that it will create a huge value for society in the future, or even more.
It's just that Tencent may have encountered some problems that need to be solved, and it just so happens that Zhang Lei is very rich.
What is more ridiculous is that Ma Huateng was stunned by the negotiations, and heard that someone could put his company to death.
I don't want to believe Zhang Lei, I think Zhang Lei is a ** who comes to cheat himself out of money.
But Zhang Lei said his understanding and investment logic unhurriedly.
After that, Ma Huateng didn't fully understand what logic Zhang Lei said, but he also understood a little.
And with the hope of creating brilliance again, Zhang Lei also took out almost all of his belongings in the end.
took out 20 million US dollars and gave it to Tencent, and also made a detailed planning route for Tencent.
Ma Huateng also relied on this huge amount of money to lead his Tencent team, all the way by leaps and bounds, and the market value also reached an unprecedented height of trillions at that time.
Zhang Lei, the boss behind the scenes, has also made a lot of money, and the return on investment this time is also very huge.
At that time, the whole country was not optimistic about Tencent, and only Zhang Lei was willing to invest in Tencent, which gave Tencent enough motivation.
It can be seen how confident Zhang Lei is in his investment, and he is really good enough for himself.
The main thing is that he dares to think and do, and then Zhang Lei is also Changhong all the way.
In 2010, Liu Qiangdong, the founder of JD.com, was at his lowest point.
At that time, the main market was very optimistic about Jack Ma's Alibaba platform.
Because at that time, the market was very optimistic about Ma Yun's model of only the platform itself not selling goods, and was not optimistic about JD.com's investment-heavy model.
The reason why no one will invest in his model is because the cost is too large, and no one dares to invest.
Because his market needs to open a store, he also needs to have his own logistics, and he also needs to have his own warehouse, and the cost is too high.
Just when he was at a loss, he thought of his friend who went to the same school, Zhang Lei.
That's right, Liu Qiangdong is actually in the same school as Zhang Lei.
When he found Zhang Lei, when he said his purpose and needed to invest 70 million US dollars, Liu Qiangdong's heart was not low.
Because the number is too big, he came this time with the mentality of giving it a try, and he didn't report much hope.
But after Zhang Lei's remarks, Liu Qiangdong was very surprised, what did Zhang Lei say.
He said no, it's too little, this is definitely not enough, I want to invest, and I will also invest you 300 million, otherwise I won't invest a penny.
At that time, when Liu Qiangdong was still very confused, Zhang Lei expressed his opinion, the most important thing for you is the brand, only if your brand is good, you can go further.
Everyone should know that Ali and Tencent are two Internet giants, and they are very amicable on the surface, but they have a fierce struggle in private.
Ma Huateng thinks about Ali's e-commerce platform every day, but Alibaba also wants to eat Tencent's social business.
These two people have been fighting for many years, but the two sides have been tied, and no one can beat anyone until Zhang Lei enters the equity of JD.com.
Slowly began to change, a year or four when JD was preparing to go public, Tencent wanted to buy JD.com, and wanted to suppress Alibaba's e-commerce status.
This is Liu Qiangdong's hard work, how could it be easily sold, and in the end there has been no good result.
It wasn't until Zhang Lei came forward to say that Tencent had 20% of its shareholders to join JD.com.
So far, Tencent has been using WeChat and QQ to attract traffic to JD.com, and JD.com has lived up to expectations and has risen directly by relying on traffic.
It will be called an e-commerce giant alongside Alibaba.
In the end, Tencent also succeeded in demolishing Alibaba's e-commerce, which is also slightly better.
After that, Zhang Lei, who is also well-known, wants to immigrate and settle in Singapore, why at this time.
Netizens also said that he was "eating inside and out", and the first half of his life was really exciting.
Now this behind-the-scenes boss is said by many netizens to be a Singaporean who has given up his Chinese nationality.
Because it was also marked before that many of the company's high collar bets have been overseas.
If Zhang Lei is ready to move to Singapore, this may be another blockage in his life, but who knows.
Whether this blockade will add another rich color or self-destruction of the future, we don't know.
According to the news, Zhang Lei has indeed obtained the status of a resident of Singapore and is ready to move to Singapore.
It is understood that there are many bigwigs in China who are based on Singapore, is it difficult to say that Singapore really has a future for development?
Once, Zhang Lei also said that choice is more important than hard work, so why Zhang Lei wants to do this should have his own purpose.
Could it be that the marketing environment in Chinese mainland is not good, we can't understand the ideas of these bigwigs.
So there's no need for us to guess at these things.
