Wall Street Legend

Ye Dongqing didn't come to Tamsui Investment Group just for filming. Ye Dongqing had something to discuss with Mr. McCord.

The large piece of land in Hudson Park on the Upper West Side of Manhattan is about to be acquired. It will be purchased and constructed in the name of Freshwater Investment Group, and a subsidiary will be established to take care of daily maintenance. All these require Mr. McCord to devote his energy to solving.

"I have communicated with Manager Wu of Citibank. You should find someone to follow up with the City Hall and Citibank regarding written materials. I guess you have to use a local construction company in New York, or a branch office. Then we will invite bids for the project. Remember to keep an eye on it. If the local construction company in New York is inexperienced or the quotation is too high, I will discuss it with Mayor Bloomberg."

When he came to his office, people from the BBC were filming the office area and trying to interview some executives. Ye Dongqing had already said hello to Assistant William and would help arrange it.

McCord has been living a prosperous life recently, with his annual salary approaching tens of millions of dollars including bonuses. He has jumped from an ordinary wage earner to a wage earner in a very short time.

This makes many senior professional managers on Wall Street jealous and desperate. They dream of meeting an awesome boss like Ye Dongqing who can lead the company to take off and reuse them.

We have been cooperating for some time, and Mr. McCord has gradually figured out how to get along with Ye Dongqing, the young boss. He just needs to help manage the company and implement his decisions. At this moment, he took out a I wrote down a few key words in a small notebook and asked, "The city hall has given you news, right? How big is the land and how much does it cost?"

"About 420,000 square meters, a total of 1.9 billion U.S. dollars. It will be paid to the city hall in five years, interest-free, and there will be certain tax deductions. I think it's okay." After such a long delay, the project is finally coming to an end. It started, and Ye Dongqing felt quite refreshed at the moment.

Although it was not his own money, Mr. McCord was still a little flustered when he heard this figure. He said: "It cost so much just to build the building. It will cost an estimated three billion US dollars to build the building? The key is to There is nothing around the land in the West District now. The city hall has planned it right, but who knows whether it can be developed smoothly in the future?"

“The real estate market depends on policy in the short term, economy in the medium term, and population in the long term. City Hall is pushing, and the U.S. economy is recovering. The population of Manhattan is so large that there is almost no room for it, and people can only live in New Jersey, Brooklyn, and Queens.

Not to mention anything else, even the Chinatown where I was born, the rent has increased a lot recently. It is said to be a slum, but now white people are being forced to go there. After all, it is on Manhattan Island, which is more convenient than living in New Jersey. . I don’t dare to say that it will definitely succeed. At least there shouldn’t be much of a problem in development. It’s just a small amount of land, and the environment and view are pretty good. Even if only four or five companies are willing to invest in building new buildings, they can all cooperate with our building to form a great building. Cool complex of buildings. "

Ye Dongqing's head was a little hot at this time and he was unwilling to accept the rebuttal. He added casually: "As for the funds, there is no need to pay for freshwater investment for the time being. I have revised the plan. It is estimated that it will be difficult to build without more than a billion US dollars. Funds You don’t have to worry about it, the bank’s money will be used in the early stage, and the money we have on hand can be used for other purposes.”

With an indifferent shrug, Mr. McCord replied: "I understand. It is for investment. Your hedge fund company has been approved to be established. It is registered in the Cayman Islands. It can avoid capital supervision to the greatest extent. It has been considered." How did it start? Which company will be the unlucky one to be targeted by you... Forget it, don't tell me. I hope to be the first customer by then and invest almost six million US dollars. My wife agreed. After all, now Half of the money I make belongs to her.”

"I haven't thought about it yet. When I get some time, I will study it carefully, look at other companies' financial reports, and sit down with other hedge fund bosses to drink, smoke cigars, and play poker together. It is said that there are many secrets to making money. It’s all hidden in those activities.”

In the past, Ye Dongqing's efforts and rewards were not proportional. The efforts were too little and the rewards were too much and too fast. It was true that he made money, but he lacked a sense of accomplishment.

Now that the layout of Tamsui Investment Group is almost complete, most of the funds in hand have been invested. Just keep an eye on it and take good care of it. This means that Ye Dongqing has more time to do the business he wants to do. He heard that He said that there was a lot of pressure on the hedge fund side, and every move was like gambling, so I got a little interested.

To be honest, he already missed playing crude oil futures a little bit, watching the rise and fall of prices every day, which involved a lot of wealth. It would be more meaningful if he succeeded. Even if he failed, it would not have much impact on Danshui Investment Group. Ye Dongqing would find a way Reduce the losses of investors and avoid damaging your reputation.

Mr. McCord shook his head and said: "It is almost impossible to hear useful information from them, unless they hope to find someone to join forces to do business. In this case, there will be a risk of being shot in the back. Who can set up a hedge fund?" Who is a normal person? They are more like a bunch of wild wolves, biting their prey. No matter which company, they will not want to expose loopholes that will be caught by them. The advantage is that it can avoid market overheating to a certain extent. Eliminate inferior enterprises.

Before doing business, I suggest you first study the failure case of Long-Term Capital Management in the United States, and then look at some other typical cases. People often think that hedge funds can offset risks and are not afraid of the rise and fall of the stock market. In fact, there is still a big problem. Risk, I don't know what you learned at Harvard, but it's better to be more prepared. "

"Hey, you haven't even invested in me yet, and you're already worried?"

Ye Dongqing joked: "Don't worry, the teachers at Harvard have never taught me, so I decided to recruit a group of people from those successful investment banks and hedge fund companies to help me. Mr. Wu Di from Citibank knows, do you think he How about he invite me to dinner tonight, I think he wants to come work for me, a hedge fund company."

"Sure enough, they all have dog noses... I will contact the headhunting company to try to build a dream team. I don't have much contact with Mr. Wu from Citigroup's credit department, so I don't understand it very well. But based on his usual performance It seems that he is a very stable person. You should talk to him more and understand him clearly in person.

Also, a company recently wanted to poach me. They felt that most of the credit for Tamsui Investment Group’s rapid growth should be mine. "

"hehe."

"Huh? Shouldn't you be worried and give me a salary increase?"

"Sir, you should know your true ability. Think carefully about how many failed suggestions you have given me. Can you help them make money after you go out? Don't you have any points?" Ye Dongqing was not polite at all.

McCord was just joking, and his face turned red after hearing this.

Take the experience of injecting crude oil futures as an example. If Ye Dongqing listened to his advice, he should thank God for blessing if he didn't lose money.

If he really wants to leave Tamsui Investment Group and take charge of other financial investment companies, he must first ask those investors how much money they have to waste, so as to avoid forcing people to jump off the building...
