Self-assessment 'incompetent' Investment is like collection of old photos, buy less expensive. Xue Manzi on the story, non-controversial, had been too many media reports and reports. For example, investment in real estate to earn millions of dollars a year, and then began investment career, once $ 250,000 investment UT Starcom, after its listing brought him $ 125 million and so on, his body has no shortage of legendary in the United States.
As angel investors, Xue Manzi, as a brand, is Qihoo 360 Zhou Hongyi, chairman referred to as 'Chinese angel investment in the first person.' Prior to February 2011, although investment over 8848, Cai Wensheng, Lee wanted to wait, but he has been a low-key domestic angel investors, until microblogging crackdown event occurs, so that he had only 'high-profile' . Interestingly, although known as the 'Chinese angel investment in the first person,' but among Xue Manzi words do not regard this title proceed cosplay costumes for sale with caution. 'Play chanting.
Make investments, mainly fun, casual, how can research what seriousness. Fun shoot is a little innovation, a "darker than black cosplay " bit mean, what aroused my curiosity.' He said his investment in the field no preference, hit the right to vote, in the investment played a 'capricious', each year for new and different projects. He had his own collection of old photographs penchant for analogies that he might be China's biggest collector of old photographs, is not inferior to the museum, but in the collection process is run like you buy two, you do not like less buy less expensive to buy, cheap to buy, strong randomness. If you give yourself scoring, to invest for fun he would regard itself as the number of points, Xue Manzi laughed and said, 'there is no comparison, there is no thought,' but he changed the subject, a little serious self-assessment:? 'I not a good investor, because the game, with the nature of the composition too, not serious. 'he said, not a serious thing, you can not perfect, but to be perfect, at the cost of happiness, because things Once that is done must be the ultimate hard to force things to the extreme will be no fun.
