Chapter 17: Dulia Capital
The establishment of Oasis Investment is inconspicuous.
Just like when all the great companies in history just appeared.
Not to mention that in the whole world and the United States, not even in the Dune Road, few people know about it.
As a venture capital holy site in the United States, dozens of Oasis investments are founded every year by Sandun Road.
Then every year there are the same number of investment companies that go bankrupt due to poor investment management.
Knowing that Oasis Company was founded, except for Oasis employees and their families.
Only Los Angeles, California, is responsible for managing the registered company.
As well as the office location of Oasis Investment Company, this small building with only four floors and several other investment companies next to it.
Next to the Oasis Company building.
This is a 7-story building. Although it is only seven-story building, it has squeezed into three investment companies.
Each company occupies about two floors, and if the office location is converted into a metric unit, it will be like five or six hundred square meters.
In fact, this is the normal operation of ordinary small venture capital companies.
Often, such small investment companies are rich people from other American industries, or simply celebrities who make money.
They want to increase their assets, but they just happen to think of venture capital.
So I rented such a one or two-story office building, recruited some industry personnel, and then the company started operating.
If you are lucky or find a person in charge, you can make money by investing.
Then, even if this investment company successfully gains a foothold in the Dune Road, it can give investors a return.
If you are not lucky, you will lose all your investors' investment within one year or two or even half a year, and then the company will go bankrupt, and game over.
The owner of the office building can wash it and clean it up, and then continue to rent it to a new investment company.
Anyway, office buildings are always in short supply on Sha Dune Road.
On the fourth and fifth floors of this office building, there happened to be a small investment company.
The name of this small investment company is: Dulai Capital.
Its person in charge is also a veteran in the industry, named David Ford.
David Ford previously worked at KPCB. After resigning, he came to Dulai Capital as the head of the company.
"Have you found out clearly? Is the person in charge of the new company really called Alvertley? From KPCB?"
Inside the office.
David Ford, who was big belly, asked curiously to one of his subordinates.
"I went outside and asked, it was indeed Alvertley Gus, who was previously the deputy general manager of KPCB."
After listening to his subordinate's report, a strange smile appeared on David Ford's face.
"Haha! That Texas guy really came to such a small company to be a manager!!"
"Hmph! I was kicked out of KPCB when I was kicked out of KPCB, but now I'm still driven out of KPCB, and I'm just like me now!"
"Alfetley, haha... to be honest, Marcus, this is the funniest joke I've heard this month!"
"hehe."
My subordinates who didn't know the future had to smile awkwardly.
If Abel stood here at this moment, he would find that the venture capital manager of Dulaya Capital, called Marcus, was the Marcus he met with Abel that day at the foot of Beverly Hills.
That day, because of the mission instructions of Fate Smoke, Abel bought shares of Blue Star Future from him very neatly.
This business can be said to be a passing glance for Abel, but I just remembered such a venture capital investment and then classified it as Oasis Investment.
But it makes sense to Marcus and Dulaya Capital.
For Marcus, when he was optimistic about the entrepreneurship of this technology, he went against the crowd and fought for the investment in front of his boss.
As a result, after investing for two years, let alone making money to make money on the market, I can’t even see the product online. What’s even more excessive is that I don’t even have a PPT!
Marcus himself is not in a hurry. He has learned some technical details of Piaggio. Although he is not a veteran in the industry, he has also consulted several doctoral students in this field.
The doctors were all optimistic, and Marcus was naturally optimistic, so he had to endure it for two years and kept delaying time for Biaggio.
But the investment is not his, and the company is not his.
He is not in a hurry and believes that this investment will definitely yield a generous return.
But the company was anxious, and David Ford, the head of the company, was anxious.
In the past two years, several investments of Dulaiya Capital have been wasted, and the annualized yield has also declined again and again.
The investors and major shareholders behind it were very unhappy, which made David Ford very unhappy too.
David Ford decided to make drastic moves to find a new suitable investment direction, while cutting off those who did not make money in the past. If they can make money, they will make money back. If they cannot make money back, they will not add additional investments with a penny.
This investment from Marcus is such a project.
The result is that no matter how much Biagio begs, Marcus can no longer provide financing.
I happened to meet Abel. As soon as Abel asked, Dulaya Capital happily sold Blue Star Future shares back and forth.
Although Marcus repeatedly objected, saying that Blue Star has great potential in the future. Even if you don’t continue to invest additionally, don’t sell off your shares and stay there and wait for future appreciation.
However, David Ford, who urgently needs to recover funds so that this year's statement will be better, heard that there is a sucker who is willing to buy it, but he is willing to listen to Marcus. He ordered Marcus to sell it.
Marcus, whose persuasion was ineffective, had to sell Blue Star Future.
For Dulaiya Capital, selling this unprofitable investment will bring back 2 million US dollars of capital, and if you don’t lose money, you will make a profit!
Because of Blue Star’s future relationship with Biagio, Marcus actually knows more about Oasis investment than David Ford imagined.
Hesitated for a moment.
Seeing his boss laughing silly there, Marcus couldn't help but say, "By the way... General Manager. This oasis company is the company invested by Mr. Sefrosa from Blue Star's future."
David Ford was stunned by laughing.
Then he laughed louder: "Haha! It's that sucker! The sucker and the unlucky guy, I feel that the sunshine in California today is brighter than ever! Hahahaha!"
When someone was willing to buy shares of Blue Star Future, David Ford was happy once.
Now that he turned around and found that the sucker and the unlucky guy he hated were gathered together, David Ford was even happier.
Looking at the laughing general manager, Marcus smiled and said nothing. At this moment, he really didn't know what to say.
Echo the general manager?
He is really optimistic about the future of Blue Star. Under the premise that the whole world is pursuing environmentally friendly and green energy, as long as the technical details mentioned by the doctors he consulted can really be realized, no matter how bad Blue Star is in the future, it will not be much worse.
