rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 507 Got it~Boss!

Chen Li actually didn't know much about the financial industry these days.

After all, Chen Li doesn't trade in stocks, and even if he trades in stocks, he won't have a clear understanding of those working in the financial industry.

Therefore, regarding Mu Xiaoqing's situation, it was actually very difficult for Chen Li to find out whether it was true or not.

But if he reaches Chen Li's stage and does not have some connections, then his life will be too bad.

It just so happened that Chen Li knew someone in the financial investment industry.

Originally, Chen Ideal thought that if Assistant Zhang couldn't find a suitable candidate, he would ask this eldest sister for help.

That's right~ This eldest sister is the current director and general manager of China District of Baring Investment (Asia) Company.

Xu Xing!

This eldest sister gained a lot of impression points with Chen Li in order to invest in Red Pony Technology.

Of course, in the end, this eldest sister also successfully obtained the first round of financing from Red Pony Technology, which was favored by many capitals at the time.

The second round of financing of Red Pony Technology held just last month was originally not related to Baring Capital behind Sister Xu.

Because Ma Xiaoyun, under the influence of Chen Li, was somewhat sensitive to the matter of a certain capital holding too many shares.

However, Xu Xing was too capable, and in the end she got a certain proportion of shares in the second round of financing.

Although the shares obtained by Baring Capital are very small, with the current momentum of Red Pony Technology, it is considered good for Baring Capital to get a piece of the pie.

Among them, the personal relationship between Xu Xing and Chen Li accounts for part of the reason.

Of course, the shares held by Baring Capital are far below the safety line, but even so, Xu Xing still owes Chen Li a favor.

But the so-called favor is actually just that. On the small things that the other party can do, the other party will definitely not mind repaying Chen Li.

But if Chen Lili wants to use this favor to do something beyond a certain range, it must be nonsense.

Fortunately, if you just ask the other party to find two stock traders for you, or get some information about a former financial industry practitioner, then there is no problem.

So after Chen Li made a call to Xu Xing, in just one day, some information about Mu Xiaoqing back then was sent to Chen Li's e-mail.

It can be seen that Sister Xu is very concerned about Chen Li's request, so this information is much more detailed than the resume Zhang Ruolan gave him.

Judging from this information, this Ms. Mu Xiaoqingmu is indeed a stunningly talented person.

It can be said that if that incident two years ago had not happened, with Ms. Mu’s qualifications, it would be Chen Li’s turn to be picky here!

Let me just say a little bit~ When Ms. Mu was working at Morgan Stanley, her annual salary had reached 300,000 US dollars.

This income is considered a high-income earner even in the United States at this time.

And this annual salary is just Mu Xiaoqing's basic salary, and she doesn't rely on this basic salary at all.

When Mu Xiaoqing worked at Morgan Stanley Securities in Hong Kong, her annual bonuses almost far exceeded her annual salary.

In terms of annual income alone, in China in 1999, there were definitely some who could surpass Mu Xiaoqing~ but definitely not many.

But the problem arose two years ago in May, when the fund managed by Mu Xiaoqing made a major mistake and committed an illegal operation.

This incident resulted in a major loss for a fund managed by Mu Xiaoqing, and Mu Xiaoqing himself was imposed a huge fine and banned from the financial market for one year because of this illegal operation.

Judging from the punishment result, it is actually not that serious.

After all, it only lasts for one year, and with Mu Xiaoqing's ability, it is not a problem to make a comeback.

But the problem is~this account is not calculated that way.

On the surface, Mu Xiaoqing's ban was only for one year, but in fact, the moment she was punished, she was already standing on the opposite side of a certain interest group.

And this~ is also the reason why Mu Xiaoqing can't find a job in the financial industry even after the period of prohibition.

Because she has a criminal record!

This is like a person who has been in prison. Even if he has reformed, it is almost impossible to find a better job.

Although with Mu Xiaoqing's previous income level, she could actually live a good life even if she didn't work.

But the problem is that her punishment is not only a ban from the capital market, but also a heavy fine.

This fine almost emptied Mu Xiaoqing's fortune, and even the properties he purchased in the United States were sold off.

In fact, up to this point, Mu Xiaoqing is already in a very miserable state. After all, she has worked hard outside for many years, but in the end she has nothing left.

But the cruelty of reality taught Mu Xiaoqing what cruelty means. When she was almost bankrupt, the people closest to her also chose to betray her.

Mu Xiaoqing is thirty-seven years old this year. When she was studying at Harvard Business School, she met her future husband, Cotton Smith.

After graduation, the two got married and had a daughter a few years later.

Both husband and wife graduated from Harvard Business School, so both of them started their personal careers much higher than ordinary people.

After Mu Xiaoqing worked in an investment bank for several years, she got an offer from Morgan Stanley, but she needed to go to Hong Kong Island to work.

Mu Xiaoqing is also a woman with a strong ambition. For this reason, Mu Xiaoqing had to leave her one-year-old daughter and her beloved husband.

But after a huge turning point in her life, her beloved husband abandoned her.

What pushed Mu Xiaoqing to the verge of collapse the most was that she couldn't even get custody of her daughter.

Because of her poor financial situation, according to American law, she is not suitable for raising children at all.

To be honest, when Chen Li saw this, he almost felt that Mu Xiaoqing was probably finished.

If ordinary people encounter these things, few of them can handle it.

Anyway, Chen Li felt that if he and Mu Xiaoqing were to switch identities, he would definitely collapse.

However, when Chen Li saw the next message, he even thought he was watching an urban workplace drama with a female protagonist.

After Mu Xiaoqing encountered a huge crisis in her life, not only did she not collapse, she even quickly regained her confidence.

Unable to enter the capital market, Mu Xiaoqing directly switched industries. Although her previous experience made her encounter great difficulties in the job search process, Mu Xiaoqing still relied on her extraordinary ability to find a job in a large company in Yanjing.

Got a job.

However, the reality is very cruel, because Mu Xiaoqing concealed her previous experience and soon lost her job after others reported her.

Yes~ Mu Xiaoqing lost her job after being reported.

As for who the person who reported Mu Xiaoqing was, there was no explanation in this document, but when Chen Li saw this, he felt something was wrong.

However, even after losing her job, Mu Xiaoqing was not depressed. She quickly found a second job.

After all, with her work experience, it is indeed not difficult to find a job in China these days.

However, Mu Xiaoqing did not hold this job for three months, and she lost her job again because of reporting.

It was obvious that someone was targeting Mu Xiaoqing, but the information did not specify who this person was.

After all, this information is just an information survey on Mu Xiaoqing's personal work history, and Sister Xu probably won't be able to find out the details about Mu Xiaoqing for a while.

Seeing this, Chen Li gave up reading Mu Xiaoqing's work information and opened the second email.

This email is still about Mu Xiaoqing, but it is an investigation into Mu Xiaoqing's illegal operation two years ago.

Although it was almost universally acknowledged that Mu Xiaoqing was responsible for what happened, but since Zhang Ruolan said that the other party was wronged, Chen Li asked Sister Xu to conduct an investigation.

This kind of investigation is actually not difficult~ After all, as long as someone asks Mu Xiaoqing's former colleagues, there will always be some clues.

After all, this kind of investigation is not to overturn the case for Mu Xiaoqing. To overturn the case, evidence is all that matters, and Chen Li only needs to get some information.

And the information in this email shows that there was definitely something fishy about what happened with Mu Xiaoqing.

In particular, one of the former Morgan Stanley employees who had left Morgan Stanley gave clear information that Mu Xiaoqing was wrongly accused at the beginning, and this matter was not even a secret within a certain circle within Morgan Stanley at that time.

But Mu Xiaoqing cannot be said to be unjust, because all the evidence given by the other party points to Mu Xiaoqing. This may be the reason why Mu Xiaoqing could only accept failure in the first place.

To put it bluntly, the other party has evidence to prove that Mu Xiaoqing made a serious mistake and made an illegal operation.

However, within the company, many people know that Mu Xiaoqing did not do this, but they have no concrete evidence to prove this.

In other words, even if there were, no one would prove it to Mu Xiaoqing.

Hmm~ When Chen Li saw this, he actually believed that Mu Xiaoqing was framed.

To put it bluntly~ Mu Xiaoqing is the one who is thrown out to take the blame.

This kind of thing is actually common in many industries. It's just that different industries and different strata, the size of the blame will be different.

Some people, even if they take the blame, may be punished, and if it's more serious, they may lose their jobs.

But Mu Xiaoqing's blame was obviously not as big as usual.

This scapegoat not only ruined Mu Xiaoqing's career, but also most likely ruined her entire life.

Of course, it does not rule out that Mu Xiaoqing was indeed the one who made the illegal operation, after all, the other party has complete evidence.

But how should I put it? This actually has no special meaning to Chen Li.

Even whether Mu Xiaoqing was wrongly accused or not, it was not that important to Chen Li.

In fact, Chen Li only needs to confirm that the other party's work resume is true, and as long as Mu Xiaoqing does have certain work experience in the investment banking and securities industries, then Chen Li will have a certain degree of recognition for Mu Xiaoqing.

Because strictly speaking, Chen Li only needs an obedient stock trader.

Of course, it would be better if this stock trader is a person with rich experience in investment and securities industry. After all, such talents will definitely be needed in the future.

From Zhang Ruolan's point of view, this might be an opportunity for Mu Xiaoqing, but from Chen Li's point of view, as long as Mu Xiaoqing has real materials, he can definitely give the other party this opportunity.

So whether Mu Xiaoqing was wrongly accused or not doesn't mean much to Chen Li.

After reading the investigation report, Chen Li switched to the first email again. This time Chen Li read Mu Xiaoqing's work resume.

Although the reality is cruel, this Mu Xiaoqing is indeed tenacious enough.

After losing three jobs in succession, Mu Xiaoqing still found a fourth job, but the company she worked for had changed from a well-known large company to a small company that Chen Li had never heard of.

Finally, Chen Li picked up the phone and dialed Zhang Ruolan's number.

"Help me make an appointment with Miss Mu as soon as possible."

It is already the last day of December, and there is not much time left before the Internet bubble is about to burst.

For Chen Li now, time is money, so Chen Li plans to get this matter done as soon as possible.

"Boss~ Mu Xiaoqing is available at any time. As long as you are free, she is available at any time."

Zhang Ruolan's voice came from the microphone. To be honest, Zhang Ruolan's performance this time was actually not good.

At the very least~ Zhang Ruolan's performance this time was completely different from Secretary Zhang in Chen Li's previous impression.

The big reason for this is because of the change in status. After all, Secretary Zhang used to be a "talent" that Chen Li could not get, but now Zhang Ruolan has become his assistant.

In the past, when Chen Li looked at Secretary Zhang, he was a little jealous and depressed.

He was envious and extremely angry because Zhou Bowen had such a capable secretary, but he was depressed because Chen Li couldn't get what he asked for.

The thing that depresses Chen Li the most is that this secretary-type talent who was almost perfect in Chen Li's opinion turned out to be selfish after becoming his assistant.

Yes~ Although there is nothing inherently wrong with her recommendation of Mu Xiaoqing. After all, Mu Xiaoqing's resume far exceeds Chen Li's needs.

But no matter what, as long as she, Zhang Ruolan, brought up such a thing, it would naturally leave a bad impression on Chen Li.

"Hmm~!"

"Then let's make an appointment at noon!"

"At noon today, you will pick her up later, and I will invite Miss Mu to have dinner with her at the farmhouse."

Chen Li looked at the time and his schedule for this afternoon before making a decision.

Zhang Ruolan actually made the itinerary for Chen Li. It has to be said that although Zhang Ruolan was a little partial this time, his professional ability was still recognized by Chen Li.

"Okay boss~ I will take Mu Xiaoqing to arrive on time."

"Okay~ That's it!"

Chen Li was about to hang up the phone, then suddenly paused, and then said into the phone:

"Assistant Zhang~ This is the first time, and I hope it is the last time."

Although Chen Li did not explain the first and last time, he believed that Zhang Ruolan understood.

Sure enough~ After an obvious pause on the other end of the microphone, Zhang Ruolan's voice came again:

"Understood~Boss!"
