Tang's "Alchemical Art"
• Interview with financial figure Tang Weizhen
Zunhao
There is no doubt that Tang Weizhen is a remarkable figure. As an old saying goes, a hero's true colors are revealed only in troubled times. At a time when the global financial tsunami is overturning traditional investment concepts, Tang Weizhen is not so much a benchmark as a belief. In a world where the financial and moral system is in crisis, Tang Weizhen is still Tang Weizhen, and this is related to his rejection of the traditional thinking of a "money-grubber" and his big love rooted in his blood. He upholds the concept of value growth of investment funds in financial storms, time and time again.
He is Tang Weizhen.
At exactly 4 pm, Tang Weizhen, who is active in the international financial field and is known as the "Chinese Buffett," emerged from the trading room without any signs of fatigue. After sitting down, he took off his glasses and rubbed the corners of his eyes before putting them back on. The wise and calm look in his eyes through the mirror was more like a cheetah returning to rest on the grassland. When he smiled, the spacious conference room suddenly seemed to be filled with warm winter sunshine.
Our conversation began with the seemingly ordinary but actually philosophical question, "Why are you Tang Weizhen?" Tang Weizhen began to tell the story of his growth from his birth in a Hunan peasant family. He has always believed that, at least before he engaged in the investment and financial industry, he was an ordinary person submerged in the crowd, even though he had outstanding performances in academics and work, which did not make him aware of what made him different from others.
After entering the financial industry, the cells representing his intelligence quotient throughout his body seemed to suddenly activate. When the time scale of human growth is focused entirely on one point, he realizes soberly that this is how Tang Weizhen should be. Only by doing this, only by this task bestowed by heaven and this person, can Tang Weizhen become "Tang Weizhen," become an Eastern knight galloping in the Western arena, and become a "Chinese symbol" in the international financial field.
Tang Weizhen grew up in two environments, Hunan culture and Western civilization, which perhaps created his dual personality of being mild and Confucian in life and wise and decisive in trading operations, and thus revealed the charm of a Chinese investor fighting in the North American financial circle.
It was not until the age of thirty, in 1993, that Tang Weizhen began to enter the financial field. From mutual funds to derivative product trading, he tried and practiced the financial investment art known as "elephants dancing on the tip of a knife" by industry insiders.
In an era where "maximizing value" is the survival criterion, the rule of the jungle and Darwinism seem to be inevitable.
Investing is an Art
In this world, as investing and financial management have become commonplace for ordinary people, no one will deny that investing is an art. However, from the perspective of financial capital investment, the different approaches to "playing" will inevitably lead to vastly different results, even leading in opposite directions.
Tang Weizhen is a master of "playing" with investment funds. Currently, Tang Weizhen Financial Group manages approximately over 70 million US dollars of funds, with clients around the world. But looking back fifteen years ago, he started with only 4000 Canadian dollars, laying the foundation with mutual funds, and the rapid expansion of the fund's growth has created a miracle in the field of financial investment.
Tang Weizhen is a very dedicated fund manager. By establishing a partnership investment model to attract client investment funds, he can achieve both standardized management mechanisms and a transparent investment process. His commitment to partners of "no profit, no fee" for over a decade is unprecedented in the industry.
After more than a decade of exploration and refinement, Tang Weizhen has designed a unique investment method, enabling clients' funds to achieve higher and more stable returns. And in terms of grasping the curve of daily investment varieties, he also has unique sensitivity and foresight.
I asked him with a smile: Mr. Tang, industry insiders say that investment experts need three hands, meaning they need to be quick-witted and agile; while investment masters need to have three eyes, that is, beyond the sixth sense of ordinary people. Do you have a third eye?
Tang Weizhen took a sip of water, habitually adjusted his glasses, and smiled: Indeed, investment is an art. Regular operation of varieties is just technical operation. You also need to achieve the unity of heaven and man, control the overall situation with the thinking of a major player, and any buying and selling at any point is an indicative market operation to control the investment variety at a specific time.
My understanding of Tang Weizhen's words is that "having stocks in hand and having no stocks in mind." It is difficult for ordinary people to grasp the timing of buying low and selling high. However, if you can grasp and become familiar with the pulsating rules and changing characteristics of a specific period, obtaining a stable weekly return of 1% should be an effortless and straightforward matter.
In the international financial market, Tang Weizhen's investment art is undoubtedly unique. In addition to his genius-like understanding of financial investment varieties, there is a very important quality: persistence. He devoted his life to the study of investment art, and his wisdom and diligence have achieved Tang Weizhen's brilliant and unsurpassed wealth harvest art.
Tang's Alchemy
For Tang Weizhen to become one of the few top Chinese figures in the international financial circle, what people may be most concerned about is his "alchemy."
As the chairman of Tang Weizhen Financial Group and the CEO of multiple companies, as well as the leader of numerous community groups, although Tang Weizhen holds multiple positions, he has still adhered to the work rule of "working from 9 am to 5 pm" for many years.
In 2007, the highest investment return rate Tang Weizhen created for his partnership clients was 94%...
Life of Tang Weizhen
In the span of a decade, two pairs of brothers on Wall Street collapsed - Salomon Brothers and Lehman Brothers. It was during the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival when Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy. While some were enjoying mooncakes and appreciating the beauty of the moon, others were faced with the harsh reality of the financial crisis. However, at that time, Tang Weizhen was reunited with his family. Upon hearing the news, he was deeply concerned about the financial situation in North America and predicted that the crisis would require government intervention. This prediction turned out to be true, as the US government announced a high-profile $700 billion bailout.
Sitting across from me, Tang Weizhen was lively and occasionally used hand gestures to express his thoughts. Strictly speaking, he was not someone who could fluently express his thoughts through language. Sometimes he seemed a bit awkward, but this did not affect our communication at all. Because anyone who is with him can feel a deep and easy-to-understand meaning from his piercing gaze when he speaks, which is a passion and vitality of life.
In recent years, Tang Weizhen has developed a love for playing golf. He says that playing golf allows him to have closer contact with clients and maintain relationships, and also provides an opportunity to breathe fresh air and exercise. He admits that his golf skills are not high, but every time he lifts his club, he thinks of the curve of market indices in trading and imagines the point where the ball lands coinciding with the buy or sell point of a certain investment product in the market.
Through the ups and downs of life, Tang Weizhen has accumulated his unique investment philosophy and life philosophy, which has helped him navigate the financial investment world with ease and grace, demonstrating his leadership style.
In life, Tang Weizhen always adheres to his beliefs, no matter what difficulties he faces. He always puts the interests of investors first, learning to use knowledge to create wealth, and creating wealth for the benefit of all.
As we finished our conversation, Tang Weizhen stood up and looked out the window at the high-rise buildings in Toronto's financial district. He said, "In this world where globalization is becoming more and more significant, nothing can be exclusively owned by anyone. I am willing to pass on my wealth creation ideas and thoughts to everyone."
With over a decade of rich experience in North American international finance, Tang Weizhen and the phenomenon he represents, the acceleration of the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures, have a revolutionary impact on representing a generation of Chinese people entering the international financial investment arena. He brings a bright light and hope to the global "economic winter" that is seeking warmth. Being with Tang Weizhen means being with someone who has a future. When you are with someone who has a future, then your future will truly be different from others.
