Wall Street Legend

Just one more reason to party.

Seeing that Laura wanted to go, Ye Dongqing said to her: "Then let me take you shopping for clothes first. There are many shopping malls around here. You also need to buy a pair of high heels. Have you worn them before?"

"Steal my sister's and wear them once. You should be able to get used to them. Just don't let the heel exceed five centimeters."

I had never heard her say that she had a sister before.

Ye Dongqing asked curiously: "Where is your sister now?"

"I ran away with a crazy man when I was twenty. I haven't seen her for several years. She has robbed me and bullied me since I was a child. Don't think we have a good relationship. She is just a bitc*!"

"."

It seemed that the other party had left a very bad impression on her, otherwise why would she have cursed just thinking about it.

Due to thousands of years of historical reasons, the Chinese attach great importance to ethnic relations maintained by blood. White people do not attach much importance to this. It cannot be said that they do not attach importance to it, but they do not attach as much importance to it as the Chinese.

Family environments like the one Laura grew up in can be seen everywhere. There are many poor people and parents with extreme ideas. To be honest, she can have such a character as she does now, which is quite good in Ye Dongqing's opinion. Similar to himself, they both "grew up free-range".

Parents and family have a great influence on children. The lack of care during the growth process makes Laura very good at taking care of other people's emotions, because she has experienced many things herself and knows how others feel. This is not necessarily the case. It's a bad thing.

Ye Dongqing didn't ask any more privacy-related questions. Ye Dongqing didn't care at all what kind of person her sister was, and said, "I probably understand. Wait a moment, and I will go shopping with you after continuing to talk to the designer." .”

"Well, don't worry about me. I will serve my sentence in this house then, right? The scenery is beautiful, and there are so many shopping malls around. I like it."

How could a house worth more than six million dollars be bad? In 2003, housing prices in New York were still at a low level, and U.S. bills were not what they would be more than ten years later. Except for the heavy traffic on Fifth Avenue, it was a little noisy. Outside of that, there's almost no fault to be found.

After the people from the architectural design office made the drawings, they brought them to Ye Dongqing today to see what they think needs to be changed, such as the dark red carpet, which will be replaced with a brighter turquoise color, as well as the chairs and sofa pillows. The supporting facilities, sofas, curtains, furnishings, etc. will be replaced. The previous owner was a Mexican natural gas tycoon. He may have a lot of money, but his aesthetic taste is average.

After redesign, the overall look will be much brighter, more youthful and fashionable, and the garish wallpapers in the room will be replaced.

The indoor swimming pool was only six meters square, and it looked redundant if you hit your head when you kicked off your legs. Ye Dongqing decided to knock down half of the wall and transform it into a study room landscape. He raised some turtles and snapping turtles in the transformed pool to avoid wasting space. .

As for the living room, a custom-made oversized aquarium wall would be very nice. A fortune teller in Chinatown once told Ye Dongqing that the most handsome one was called Hai Dongqing, who could carve out Liaodong. He could tear apart tigers and leopards, and also loved to eat fish. , so he was advised to raise arowana.

I knew 100% of it was nonsense, but it sounded pretty good. Later, I actually raised two red arowanas, and I fell in love with these big fish over time. Now that the house is so spacious, there is no reason not to keep raising them to add some life. Check it out occasionally to feel better.

Finalize these quickly.

Maybe the designer was complaining, especially when he heard that swimming pools were being used to raise turtles, a giant snapping turtle weighing 40 or 50 pounds. I could only lament that rich people have unique hobbies.

A small flaw does not prevent the other party from thinking that Ye Dongqing is a young man who is easy to get along with. He actually quickly passed the design plan on the second meeting. If you meet the kind of customer who is still not satisfied after changing it seven or eight times, you can't wait to smash it. It would be better to just quit your job and quit your job.

There are more than 20 things that need to be changed here and there. I will probably live here for many years. It is worth taking time to have more snacks. The equipment in the indoor gym needs to be replaced, and the equipment in the indoor theater also needs to be replaced. How to make it comfortable? .

The office is much more casual, as long as it looks pleasing to the eye. A tea room and lounge are designed. The location of his office has also been decided. The decoration style is very Chinese, and there will even be a tea table.

It is used to entertain guests, and Ye Dongqing can occasionally use it to entertain herself when she is thinking about things.

I wrote a deposit check before going out and paid the balance after acceptance. It cost about a million dollars. Both materials and labor costs were very expensive. It was precisely because of the high cost of human resources that it was almost impossible to find it in the United States. There are too many low-value-added factories, but these low-value-added factories employ the most people, leaving many people without any skills unemployed at home.

Looking back at 2002, the economic situation last year was not very good. Most of the institutions that went to developing countries to make money made more money than those that stayed in the United States. The market sentiment was generally optimistic, and a large amount of U.S. dollars were flowing around the world. They felt that in 2003 It will be better than last year.

At the party that night, Ye Dongqing and Laura, who had never seen much of the market, stood inconspicuously in the crowd.

Occasionally, some eyes were cast, and almost all of them were focused on Laura, who was wearing a white evening dress. It would look strange for both of them to wear black, so he bought a white skirt for his female companion tonight.

A group of hedge fund managers are talking nearby. Since the collapse of the Internet bubble, traditional funds have suddenly become unpopular. A group of vampires have turned to hedge funds, an industry that was not taken seriously before. In fact, they may not necessarily make more money than traditional funds. , the risk is also relatively high, but who told investors to do this?

The group of people around me are talking about oil. Compared with foreign exchange and gold, its recent performance deserves the most attention. Large fluctuations mean that it is likely to bring higher returns. Everyone expresses their own opinions. No one knows who is standing there. Ye Dongqing beside them actually dared to use 20 times leverage to go long on crude oil futures.

The person who invited Ye Dongqing has not come to say hello to him yet. Guests are still coming in one after another. Mrs. Johnson, who is worth tens of billions of dollars from Fidelity Investment Group, is surrounded by many people at this moment, some of whom make Ye Dongqing uncomfortable. I often see familiar faces in financial magazines and on TV. At a glance, there are several billionaires.

Malik Fassi was also there. This third-generation rich man from Boston raised his glass to greet Ye Dongqing from a distance, but had no intention of coming over to talk.

The attitude was very clear, and he still kept a respectful distance. From this, Ye Dongqing could think that little Edward had probably said a lot of bad things about himself, or that this guy took the initiative to express his position.

He didn’t think there was anything wrong, he could no longer be considered a friend. When he saw an old man, Ye Dongqing’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly greeted Laura and said, “Come on, come with me to meet someone. I didn’t expect to see him alive here. "
