Chapter 62 The Carlyle Group
Xiannong Soup Restaurant is located at No. 3470 West Sixth Street, just opposite to Quarter's Barbecue Restaurant where Zhao Youzhen and Han Yi met for the first time.Compared with the young and trendy Quarter's, or the assembly-line BCD tofu house, Sunnongtang is the one that truly represents the traditional Korean food culture.Even the name of the store itself is the most authentic and ancient peninsula flavor.

North Korea imitated the Central Plains Dynasty everywhere, and the custom of Xiannong Festival will naturally not be left behind.Every year, the king of North Korea would fast for three days before the ceremony, and then lead civil and military officials to place sacrifices such as raw rice, corn, pigs and cattle on the altar of Xiannong to worship Shennong and Houji.Afterwards, the king will also complete the plowing ceremony in the Jitian, and in this way pray to the gods for a good harvest in the coming year.

As one of the most anticipated parts of the Shannong Festival, the royal chef will cook the whole ox for the sacrifice together, including ox bones, ox head, ox leg, ox knee bone, ox tendon, beef ribs, internal organs and every other The meat from the parts will be fully utilized and boiled into a pot of thick and milky "Snow Soup" for the public to share.

And this is the origin of Xiannong Tang, and also the origin story of the name of this popular restaurant on West Sixth Street.Of course, in addition to Shannong soup, there are many other popular dishes in the restaurant, such as braised cheese ribs in stone pot and spicy beef soup, which are popular among Asian and non-Asian residents in Los Angeles.

It was also after Zhao Youzhen popularized the knowledge to him tonight that Han Yi understood the correct meaning of the word Sun Nong Dan - before that, he had always called it Sun Nong Dan according to the pinyin.

There are so many strange names in South Korea, and it’s okay for someone to be named Sun Nongdan, right?

At least Han Yi thought so.

At this time, they were busy from the afternoon to the early morning, and in front of the two hungry people, a steaming bowl of spicy beef soup with leek leaves was placed in front of each of them.Although the Xiannong soup restaurant at three o'clock in the morning did not have a long queue, it was definitely not empty. Except for the two workaholics Han Yi and Zhao Youzhen, most of the people who came to eat came out of the Korean nightclub next door. drunkard.

Turning a deaf ear to the Korean conversations around him flicking his tongue and coughing up phlegm, Han Yi lowered his head, organized his sentences carefully, and sent a message.

"Mom, did you get the money? Take it and treat everyone to dinner."

"I just got my first salary here."

"Aren't you hungry? You didn't even eat dinner."

Even though a peaked cap has been put on their heads for the sake of keeping a low profile, in this small restaurant, most people quietly shifted their attention to the perfect girl sitting opposite Han Yi, but give it to yourself Yujin, who was so hungry, obviously didn't have the energy to take care of any personal image issues.She swallowed a big mouthful of spicy beef soup, sizzling hotly, and drank half a glass of ice water to get better.

Only then did Yu Zhen notice that Han Yi hardly moved his chopsticks, listening to the voice for a while, typing and replying for a while, completely immersed in WeChat.

"Xiaoru?"

Zhao Youzhen frowned slightly, and asked calmly.

"No." Han Yichao Youzhen shook the phone screen, "My mother."

"Salary, what kind of salary? When will you be paid?"

"Didn't I tell you some time ago that I found a part-time job in a brokerage company. They thought I was a professional match and called me to help. Today just happened to send the first month's money."

"Oh... darling, why are there so many, three or thirty thousand?"

"That's right, the recent exchange rate is okay. It's not that much when converted into US dollars."

"You keep the flowers for yourself, Yao'er, we don't need so many here."

"It's okay, I still have the credit card you gave me. Didn't I promise you before that the first month's salary will be paid for you to enjoy yourself."

"You haven't used that card recently, I read it..."

Han Yi, who was leaning against his face to listen to the voice, accidentally touched the power amplifier button, and hurriedly pressed the screen to turn off.

"Sorry." Han Yi coughed twice, trying to divert Yuzhen's attention, "I touched my face, and my voice is a bit loud."

"It's okay." Zhao Youzhen didn't quite understand Mother Han's Rongcheng dialect.She thought for a moment, as if she was looking for the correct way to address the man's elder that the Chinese teacher taught her in her mind.

"Auntie... how are you doing?"

"She's fine." Han Yi smiled and said, "I just sent her a big red envelope."

Her red envelope is still paid by you, Yuzhen.

The $3500 transferred to Zhao Youzhen was related to his career, and Han Yi knew that he would definitely get a reward.But what he didn't expect was that he could be rewarded so much.

Spending $3500, taking in $14000.

A full four times the reward.

The card bug behavior mentioned earlier is indeed effective.When he regards Zhao Youzhen as his partner, every penny he spends for himself is equivalent to spending for her.

One payout, two rewards.

Treasure girl, Yujin, it seems that you cannot escape the fate of being my wing.

Han Yiman looked at Zhao Youzhen with a smile and thought.

Find a chance and try it on Xu Yiru.

"What time is get out of class over tomorrow?"

"Let's see...the last group discussion tomorrow will end at [-]:[-]. I can leave earlier if it ends quickly."

Zhao Youzhen's eyes lit up, lowered his voice, and whispered.

"What's the matter, do you want to..."

"It's not eating! Hey, Youzhen, you're eating now, show respect to the spicy beef soup!" Han Yi smiled and widened his eyes, pretending to be intimidating.

"I respect it." Zhao Youzhen touched his face with his index finger embarrassingly, picked up a ball of beef shreds and leeks with silver chopsticks, put them in his mouth, and said vaguely, "Since I found out that I don't gain weight after eating, every meal I respect them all."

"On behalf of the American Meat Association, I thank you." Han Yi shook his head helplessly and smiled, "I mean, if you have time tomorrow, come with me to Manate Entertainment. Diplo will meet me there , Let’s talk about the acquisition conditions of Mad Decent in detail.”

"Can I?"

This time, Yuzhen's eyes were much brighter and hotter than when he saw delicious food.

"This is the record company's business, can I go too?"

"Of course, you are my No. [-] partner and the only member of my music team so far... It seems quite miserable to say so." Han Yi took a sip of Coca-Cola before slowly saying, "I'm alone Go, there is no meeting... and I wanted you to get to know Jordan, but in the artist management sector in the future, you two still have a lot to cooperate with."

"Okay, I've already asked for leave with TA." Han Yi's inversion sentence is so magical, now not only Xu Yiru, but even Zhao Youzhen has joined the ranks of becoming a spiritual Qilu person.Yuzhen took out her mobile phone and directly sent an email asking for a leave of absence from the discussion class to the teaching assistant, "What time is it tomorrow?"

"If you don't go to the seminar, just leave at three o'clock? I'll pick you up at your apartment."

"No need! I came up for a run, just in time for fitness, just change clothes at your side."

Some things, once done, the psychological barriers will naturally be overcome.

Youzhen loves the bathroom with a balcony in Han Yi's house so much, and even dreams of having it again.

So, on the afternoon of April 4, the Korean girl really put on Under Armor sportswear and ran all the way from the Atrium apartment to No. 13 Stella Della Road.

"Miss Zhao, nice to see you again."

Corey McIntosh, who opened the door for Youzhen, stood in the courtyard, smiled politely, and bowed to Zhao Youzhen.

"No wonder Mr. Han is so excited. It turns out that you are coming."

"Is he... very excited?" Zhao Youzhen, who was covered in sweat, suddenly had a little flush on his cheeks - even after running for a mile or two, the effect of hearing these words was not as strong.

"Yes."

Cory turned sideways, making a welcome gesture.

"Mr. Han has been looking at his mobile phone after lunch, pacing back and forth in the living room, and never sat down."

Is Han Yi looking forward to Yuzhen's arrival?

Maybe a little, but certainly not the main reason.

95% of the reasons are the congratulatory text message from Douglas Le Pen, the final confirmation email from Parkway Capital in the USC mailbox, and the explosive news received in the memo.

Early this morning, the limited partnership company jointly established by Baihui Capital and Han Capital in Delaware, named Baihui Joint Investment Partner Fund No. 201606, transferred the first payment to the United Artists Brokerage Company, 1.33 million The US dollars have arrived in the other party's company account.

what does this mean?
This means that in the memo that has been silent for a long time, a new piece of text has finally emerged.

[As Peter Diamantis said: "The best way to become a billionaire is to help billions of people."

What else is better than investing in a cause you love and believe in, which can save yourself and others?
Han Yi, congratulations on taking the first step in your career, and congratulations on completing a massive consumption of over [-] million US dollars at the same time.

To celebrate these two milestones, we will unlock yet another asset for you.

Through the joint investment and cooperation with Parkway Capital, I believe you have a preliminary understanding of the operating rules of investment funds and capital management groups.As for the newly unlocked asset, we hope it can continue to inspire you to explore more deeply in this regard.

So now, let us officially introduce to you, the new reward——

A $3.99 million portfolio managed by The Carlyle Group.

This fund is about to expire on May 2016, 5, and its future fate is completely in your control.

However, remember that like the last reward, the capital obtained from investment funds can still only be used for investment, and the way of judging has not changed.

New opportunities, new identities, and new lives, Han Yi, I hope you will do your best to grasp them. 】

$ 3.99 billion.

Han Yiliu's first US$1.33 million investment in UTA leveraged a three-fold reward.

Counting the balance in the bank savings account, the funds in the wealth management account of JPMorgan Chase, the investment fund of Parkway Capital LP, and the investment fund of the Carlyle Group just received... Now Han Yi's total net worth has reached 7.24 million.

Although he can really deploy it at will, and the unlimited cash is only about 1100 million U.S. dollars, but the crazy reality of nearly quadrupling his assets in more than a month still makes it difficult for Han Yi to calm down.

$3.99 million investment fund.Kevin Hart's Hartbeat, Diplo's Mad Decent, Yue Wen and Yang's charitable donations, and the daily operations of the music business group... Can these things add up to more than one-third of this money?
How many unimaginable feats can the remaining funds be used to accomplish?
More importantly, even the capital management group with which they will be dealing this time has made a qualitative leap in terms of scale, grade and hierarchy.

The total assets under management of Parkway Capital is US$850 billion.

What about the Carlyle Group?
3730 billion dollars!
Douglas Le Pen, the founder of Parkway Capital, is a well-known capital manager on the west coast and the vice chairman of the Los Angeles County Finance Committee.

What about the Carlyle Group?
Founder David Rubinstein, Chairman of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Chairman of the National Gallery of Art, Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, Chairman of the Economic Club of Washington, DC, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Duke University, and Chairman of the Smithsonian Institution.

Among the employees of Parkway Capital, none came from the political circle.

What about the Carlyle Group?
The former president of the United States, the former prime minister of the United Kingdom, the former president of the Philippines, the chairman of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and even George Soros have served as consultants here and received generous salaries.

The most frightening thing is that these giant capital crocodiles, who usually can't catch the wind and shadow, have actually been dormant in everyone's life for a long time.China Literature, the largest online literature platform operator in Huaguo, Kakao Talk, the most popular instant messaging software in South Korea, and the Huaguo branch of McDonald's all have investment layouts from Carlyle Group.In fact, the M&A fund of Carlyle Asia took a stake in Tencent Literature as early as November 2014.The merger of Shanda Literature and Tencent Literature, as well as the birth of China Literature, was finally realized with the help of Carlyle Group.

If these have not touched your daily life, then let me give another very interesting example, Xu Yiru, who was a news anchor in her previous life, worked for Dongsen Group.The owner of Dongsen Group is the Carlyle Group.

This is Carlyle's monstrous power, even in a remote corner of Asia, there is also its power projection.Global private equity, global credit, and global investment solutions, the naming of the three core business groups by the Carlyle Group shows its immeasurable scale and unparalleled political and business influence.

With 3.99 million US dollars, plus the Carlyle Group's bottomless network resources in various industries and countries, what kind of chain reactions can Han Yi himself not be able to calculate?

Just thinking of this, Han Yi couldn't sit still in one place.

Let alone sit down, he jumped from Bel-Air to Huntington Beach in one breath.

"Yo-jin, Yoo-jin!"

Seeing Zhao Youzhen walking towards the front hall with a blushing face, Han Yi opened his arms and raised his voice almost like cheering.

"Welcome home!"

"What... what?"

There was a distasteful tone on his mouth, but in his heart, he seemed to drink a whole glass of In-N-Out strawberry milkshake, which was so sweet that he felt a little dizzy.Zhao Youzhen stood still in front of Han Yi, looking at him softly.

"You're in such a good mood today?"

"I made a small profit from the investment." Han Yi grinned, "You will know later... Wow, you really ran up the mountain?"

"Yeah." Zhao Youzhen pulled down the sportswear, not wanting Han Yi to see any trace of sweating, "I eat so many calories in the early morning, so I have to expend them quickly."

"Aren't you all gaining weight?"

"Don't dare to relax yet." Zhao Youzhen sighed softly, "This situation will last at least half a year before I can be sure that I really don't gain weight... Then I can eat openly."

"Good guy, it's not considered open to eat now, is it?"

Han Yi pretended to roll his eyelids helplessly, and smiled.

"Hurry up and take a shower, we'll set off when you pack up."

"Okay, wait for me for 15 minutes."

Zhao Youzhen nodded, and walked towards Johanna Yangsen, who had been standing by the side earlier, waving at her.Suddenly, as if she had remembered something, she turned her head and smiled brightly at Han Yi.

"By the way, Billy and Phineas just sent back the record agreement and distribution contract today... We can officially start the promotion of "Ocean Eyes."

"Great, it's all good news today."

Han Yi clapped his hands and picked up the mobile phone that had been thrown on the sofa.

"I will immediately contact Chase to transfer the advance payment to their bank account."

"Bili and Phineas, what are you going to do with this money?"
