Black-bellied vs. Black-bellied: Ultimate Showdown

Chapter 4: Riding a donkey looking for a horse

In the Japanese food store of Fengmao Building, two young women in business attire are sitting together to eat and chat.

"Last time you said that your department will have a new deputy director, how is it?"

"Don't mention it, this person has been here for half a month, and he has covered almost all the hot topics of our IBD in the past half month!" The person who spoke was named Lin Han, a financial analyst at Mingtai Securities.

"What's the situation?" Sitting across from her is Zhang Qingqing, Lin Han's college classmate and best friend, currently working in the sales department of the Fengmao Building of Bank of China. Because they are both in Fengmao, the two often go out for dinner and talk about the workplace by the way. trivia.

"Did you know, he's only twenty-six years old this year!" Lin Han danced his chopsticks and said excitedly, "It's crazy, I'm still an analyst at twenty-seven, and he's already a VP at twenty-six. !"

Zhang Qingqing said in surprise: "No way? Is there some kind of backstage?"

Lin Han: "No!"

When they first heard about Fu Yansheng's age, they had similar suspicions. After all, in a place like Mingtai where elites gather, if you return to Qingbei, you have to mix up your qualifications when you come in. The 26-year-old deputy director is really is too young.

Until someone pulled out the other party's resume...

"That guy went to university when he was thirteen years old. He studied mathematics at T University. After graduating from his undergraduate degree, he went to London politics and economics. Before he came to Mingtai, he had been working in Hong Kong City Huansheng for five years..."

Zhang Qingqing interrupted her: "Huansheng? Is it the most famous securities company in Hong Kong?"

Lin Han nodded: "Originally, he was qualified to be the director of Mingtai directly based on his qualifications. I heard that the leaders above were afraid that he would not be convinced by his young age, so he was put on a deputy position for a while... But it's not bad, his surname is Fu, we still Call him Director Fu."

Zhang Qingqing sighed for a while: "It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves..."

Lin Han added: "You're not young enough, and you don't have anything to say about his appearance. The unmarried women in our entire department were agitated on the day he joined."

Zhang Qingqing's eyes lit up: "Oh? He looks handsome?"

Lin Han gestured and said, "He is tall, with fair skin, and wears a pair of silver-framed glasses on his face. He looks like the aloof senior in our university... What's his name like Song?"

Zhang Qingqing: "Song Puxin?"

"Yes, yes." Lin Han nodded again and again.

The two of them graduated from Caida University, and Song Puxin was the senior two years above them, and he was also the campus male **** who almost attracted all the girls in the school back then.

Zhang Qingqing recalled and said, "I remember that Senior Song doesn't seem to wear glasses."

Lin Han: "Yes, but the overall temperament of the two is very similar. Anyway, they are both gentle, with first-class IQ, and they don't like to talk to people very much."

Zhang Qingqing covered her face and whispered: "It makes me feel like a young girl, I had a crush on Senior Song at the beginning." She was fascinated for a moment, and then felt a little unimaginable, "But, how can such a person be? To be a VP? Don't the VPs of your investment banks have to deal with clients? How can he do it if he doesn't have the ability to dance with long sleeves?"

"It doesn't look like someone who has been immersed in this circle for many years... But who knows, it may be just an appearance." Anyway, Lin Han didn't believe that Fu Yansheng was as gentle and harmless as he looked on the surface. After all, in the financial industry, there is no such thing as a Ambitious and wolfish people can't get along.

"But I have to say that his appearance is still very deceptive. In just a few days, representatives from all departments of the company came to ask him about his relationship status." Lin Han said.

"This kind of talented and handsome, I guess he already has a master, right?" Zhang Qingqing asked.

Lin Han: "I'm afraid you won't believe it when I tell the story behind it. Last Monday, some of our IBD investment managers dragged him to the Skyline bar upstairs. They said they wanted to take a good look at his relationship history. If there was an opportunity, I followed, and everyone started playing Truth or Dare after drinking a little wine, and it took us a while to ask about his relationship status, but guess what?"

Zhang Qingqing: "What's the matter?"

Lin Han: "He chose a big adventure!"

Zhang Qingqing laughed with a "poof": "What's the matter, it's normal that people don't want to say it."

"No, no, I haven't even mentioned the point..." Lin Han glanced around, leaned closer to her, and whispered, "At that time, there was a super handsome little brother sitting not far from us, The visual age is no more than 20. The manager Chu in our group has been eyeing others for a long time. When President Fu said that the election was a big adventure, he asked him to ask for the contact information for himself. What did you say, the two of them kissed in no time! It was still mouth to mouth, and they kissed for seven or eight seconds!"

Although he lowered the volume, Lin Han still described the description in a eloquent manner, making Zhang Qingqing stunned: "Mom, isn't this too cool!?"

Lin Han: "Right, right? We were all shocked at the time! When he came back, he told us solemnly that it was his little brother who asked him to kiss him, and he gave him the number only after he said he did..."

Zhang Qingqing: "..."

Lin Han tasted the vegetable salad in front of him, and then said, "Hey, what do you think he thinks? The story of him kissing the same **** in the bar in the past two days has spread throughout the company, and it is estimated that many people are suspicious now. He's **** too... Although the little brother he kissed is really stunning, can a normal straight man accept kissing someone of the same **** so easily? No way!"

Zhang Qingqing: "I can't guess... But no matter what, his words and deeds have already conveyed an emotional rejection attitude to the outside world... I don't think he's the kind of person who would open his heart to others easily..."

Lin Han nodded and said: "I don't know if everyone is gossiping about him recently, and I feel that he is not in a good mood recently. Last week, Manager Chu brought us LadyM's cake and gave him a piece, and told us after he came out. , Mr. Fu stood by the window in a daze with his mobile phone in his hands. I don't know who was angry. The air pressure in the office was so low that it seemed like a thousand years of ice...

"Also, our group held a meeting the day before yesterday to give him an IPO financial verification report for a certain company. After listening to it, he circled the data of several problems that needed to be accounted for in front of us, and said, 'Before the report is published in the future SA had better review it again and show it to me. If the other company really has such elementary school-level financial problems, it won't waste everyone's time.' - Wow, I broke into a cold sweat when I heard it."

Zhang Qingqing was taken aback: "Can he directly see the financial data problem when he is in the meeting?"

Lin Han: "Yeah, he is very sensitive to numbers. Although he can't do accurate calculations in his head, he thinks that there are basically no problems. We didn't believe in evil at first. When we checked back, we were completely convinced."

Zhang Qingqing: "Damn, a mediocre brain really limits my imagination!"

Lin Han: "Hey, if you don't have those two brushes, you wouldn't be able to sit in this position at such a young age... Okay, let's go back to work as soon as possible, and we'll have to work overtime again at night if we talk more."

The two settled the bill and went to the elevator hall.

During the noon rush hour, there were many people waiting for the elevator. Zhang Qingqing saw an acquaintance in the crowd of people standing in twos and threes, and came up to say hello, "Mr. Xu, have you eaten?"

The man was wearing a Bulgari smoky gray shirt, and Lin Han looked familiar.

"Your colleague?" she asked quietly.

"No," Zhang Qingqing introduced to her, "this is the CEO of Shanyu Investment Company. Another company in the group above him has business dealings with us and has met twice."

Seeing Xu Jing smiling at him, Lin Han quickly greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Xu!"

Back at the company, Lin Han suddenly remembered where he had seen that person when he went to the bathroom.

Just as Chu Meng came in to touch up her makeup, Lin Han said smoothly, "Hey, Manager Chu, I just saw the man drinking with that handsome guy in Skyline!"

"Who are you talking about?" Chu Meng didn't respond.

"That's it..." Lin Han quickly explained.

When playing Truth or Dare on Skyline, Chu Meng had just found Qi Yu and excitedly pulled Lin Han to watch it together. At that time, there was a man sitting opposite the handsome guy, who was the type that Lin Han liked, so she turned to him instead. more impressive.

"I didn't expect him to be the boss of an investment company. I just met him in the elevator hall, and he looked very young from a close distance."

After Chu Meng wiped off her lipstick, she snorted coldly: "Don't be fooled by his appearance, I have long heard that many executives in this building are gay, and the boy was not very old at the time, what you can see is That boss might be his financial master!"

Lin Han was startled: "Ah? No way..."

"Nothing? It's a mess." The two of them dried their hands and went out together, Chu Meng said bitterly: "And I think that child is also very scheming, he already has a gold owner, and he even teased our Fu when they weren't there. President, in the workplace, this is called 'riding a donkey to find a horse, without delaying the two', tsk tsk, today's young...""

Just as they were talking, the two met Fu Yansheng head-on.

Lin Han hurriedly tugged on Chu Meng's sleeve and finished speaking. Manager Chu's voice was so loud just now that President Fu must have heard it. Chu Meng still went his own way, without the slightest sense of guilt for gossiping behind his back, and calmly greeted Fu Yansheng.

Fu Yansheng nodded and passed by the two of them.

When he returned to the office, his expression darkened slightly.

... riding a donkey looking for a horse?

Taking out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, Fu Yansheng clicked on the address book and glanced at the string of phone numbers that had long been unreachable, his eyes flickering.

A few seconds later, he opened the official website of Fengmao Building, and found three investment companies in the company directory. Then he switched back to the professional search page, entered and searched one by one, and finally targeted one of them—

Shanyu Investment Management Co., Ltd.

Registered capital: XXXX million RMB

shareholder

Siyuan Group: 50%

Xu Jing: 50%

Executive Director: Xu Jing

…

Fu Yansheng stared at the name, thinking for a while.

***

May. Lixia has passed, Xiaoman has not yet arrived.

In the afternoon of the weekend, the sky is blue and the wind is light, and the air is filled with the fragrance of white magnolia.

Fu Yansheng had a rare rest, but was invited out for tea by a client he met while working in Hong Kong City.

"Xiao Fu, why didn't you tell us when you came to Haicheng? If it wasn't for Wang Dong's encounter with you at the Yufu Hotel that day, I wouldn't have known that you quit."

The person who met him was the boss of an Internet company, surnamed Liu. Last year, the other company's listing project in Hong Kong City was handled by Fu Yansheng's team.

"Haha, I've only been here for a month, mainly because I don't have time to come down."

"Why did you think of going to Mingtai? I remember that Mingtai is not as large as the Huansheng where you were before." President Liu handed him a cigarette.

Fu Yansheng took the cigarette, not in a hurry, the corners of his lips were hooked, and he said lightly: "It's just a different city, it's the same everywhere."

"It's all the same?" President Liu smiled and shook his head, "You dare to say such a thing."

There were also other business people present. Mr. Liu and his friends introduced Fu Yansheng. He talked about how he helped his company raise its valuation and double its financing. The tone was undisguised gratitude and appreciation.

While the other party was talking endlessly, Fu Yansheng was attracted by the scene outside the window—

The teahouse they are in is located on the seventh floor of Xingyuegang in Shinan District. From the floor-to-ceiling windows of the private room, they can almost overlook the flow of people in the atrium of Xingyuegang.

There is a men's clothing store on the lower floor opposite the teahouse. Two young people are picking and choosing by the new product display stand. One of them is a little taller, so it's almost dazzling to see. It's the one who slapped Fu Yansheng on Skyline a month ago." Qi Feng".

Fu Yansheng put the cigarette between his lips, took a slow puff, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Mr. Liu, who is beside him, is still saying: "I asked him to be the secretary of the board of directors with his double salary in Huansheng, but he refused, and I still regarded him as arrogant and despised the position I offered. Well, who would have thought that he would turn his head and go to Mingtai..."

Another person said in a roundabout way: "Mingtai is not bad. What is Mr. Fu doing in Mingtai now?"

Fu Yansheng: "With a few internal teams, we still do things like issuing shares, underwriting mergers and acquisitions."

"Mr. Fu, let's change our business card. If any high-quality company goes public in the future, remember to notify us in advance to buy shares."

"Row…"

While Fu Yansheng was dealing with them, he was distracted to observe the movement outside the window.

I saw that the young man was grabbing a T-shirt and trying it on his companion, and then leaned over and said something in that person's ear. Whether it was a smile or an action, it was so ambiguous that it made people think.

Fu Yansheng suddenly felt a little irritable. He took down the cigarette and drank the silver-browed white peony in front of him, but he still didn't feel better.

After a while, he shoved the half cigarette into the ashtray, turned his head to Mr. Liu and said, "I'm sorry, I just learned that a 'friend' is also in Xingyue Port, Mr. Liu doesn't mind. Shall I go down and say hello?"

The author has something to say: [Interlude]

Fu Yansheng: Online question, what should I do if the phone number left by the goblin who fell in love at first sight in the bar can't get through?

- China's good colleagues, China's good assists, provide you with new clues!

Chu Meng: "That boss might be his financial master."

Xu Jing: "No, no, you have misunderstood. (〒▽〒

Chu Meng: "That kid is riding a donkey looking for a horse!"

Fu Yansheng found Xu Jing: "So, this person is a donkey?"

Xu Jing: "You're a **** donkey!"

Half a month later, Fu Yansheng met Qi Feng and Ling Ke at Xingyue Harbor.

Fu Yansheng (frowning): I haven't seen you for a month. Did he find another horse?

Ling Ke: You are the **** horse!

Qi Yu, who is far away in the United States: I have gone to work and hide my merits and fame!
