Wall Street Legend

"Which school are you going to attend next year?"

Ye Dongqing asked Laura casually. Now that the two peers have become roommates, they occasionally take the time to chat, saying that the relationship between the boss and the secretary is actually closer, after all, they have stayed in the same school for so long.

"I haven't decided yet. It won't be too late to consider this matter next summer. The schools that sent me admission notices all use the semester system and don't start school until the end of August every year."

In addition to the "semester system" mentioned by Ms. Laura, American universities also have a quarter system. Colleges and universities in California generally adopt a quarter system. There are three to four quarters every year, each lasting about two and a half months, and then a holiday. for a while, and then enrolled again.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but the semester system is relatively easier. Whether it is winter vacation or summer vacation, you can get enough rest time, and you can take time to intern, work, or do other things you like.

"Okay, Laura, remember to remind me to sign up when the time comes. It's best to go to Columbia University. Business can't be delayed. I'll be exhausted from flying back and forth."

"Since you're worried about being too far away, why not go to Harvard? Your grades are enough to be admitted, and it's only two or three hours away from New York." Laura gave a suggestion.

Thinking about it in his mind, Ye Dongqing was not sure whether he would be able to endure it and sit in class every day and listen to those boring lessons.

Going to Manhattan International High School to study a few days ago tortured him to death. Once he left school and enjoyed a life without too many constraints, it would be difficult to go back.

What's more, he still has a lot of things to do. He goes to university just to satisfy his past regrets. He will definitely not waste too much precious time on his studies. If possible, it is best to experience it every now and then and only go shopping when he is bored. It is impossible to do it every day. Walking around a school.

So she replied to Laura: "This distance is already quite far, driving every week will be tiring, and the neighborhood is not interesting at all. I think it won't be difficult to get an honorary degree from Harvard University when I succeed in the future, since there are direct Once you get the results, you can save some of the intermediate process and just experience what college life is like.”

"There's no way. It seems that you can only choose Columbia or New York University. You can get to the school in a short drive. As for the honorary degree... haha."

Her laugh was meaningful.

American universities also hope to put money on their faces and occasionally issue honorary degree certificates to celebrities and rich people. Bill Gates, who once dropped out of Harvard, got an honorary doctorate from Harvard University again in this way. Laura only thought that Ye Dongqing was bragging. , I don’t believe that this guy will become so powerful in the future.

Ye Dongqing's current financial situation, Laura, is well aware that she finally made some money from the Freshwater Fund, and part of it was subsidized to FB Company.

More than once, she heard senior employees of Freshwater Fund who knew the inside story express concerns about future development prospects. If things go smoothly and you keep making money, it's naturally a good thing. But once the value of the stocks you invest in shrinks, the boss may not only make no money, but may also owe a lot of money.

She once mentioned it in front of Ye Dongqing, but before she could finish her words, he blocked her with "How could I fail in my investment?" After that, Miss Laura didn't bother to mention it anymore, which made her so angry.

It’s hard to say whether the investment will fail. Nothing is guaranteed, but in Ye Dongqing’s opinion, the possibility of his success is indeed not small. The key depends on whether everything goes smoothly.

As a poor kid with no capital and no connections, if he wants to step on a group of people and get to the top, it depends on his luck...

A snowfall traps people in their homes.

The few who are in a good mood will go out to enjoy the snow, and when the biting cold wind blows, they immediately want to go home.

It’s really boring. It’s a good choice to go to a heated cafe, order a cup of hot coffee and sit down to rest. It snowed several times after the beginning of winter, and even the children were too lazy to build a snowman again. The old snow has not yet melted, and new snow has come. .

Ye Dongqing didn't plan to go out today, so she thought it was just to take a vacation for herself.

Last time he posted a recruitment advertisement in Chinatown, so the employees he was busy training last week were almost all Chinese, with slightly more males.

When the boss is taking a break, a few more lively temporary salesmen don't want to be idle at home.

One of them was named Zhou Yong.

My ancestor came to New York to settle down more than a hundred years ago. After struggling all these years, he only earned a small house. Now, a family of five is crowded into a small house of more than 60 square meters. You can hear your family turning over through the wall. , life is really frustrating.

At thirty years old, he is considered an elder. He has not yet found a wife, so he seems to be quite smart.

He works hard. In the past few years, he helped deliver bottled purified water to people. Americans drink tap water directly, so business will not be so good. After the boss found a job, he closed the company without even paying compensation. His usual salary was just enough and he couldn't save much money.

This time, my uncle found a job somewhere, so he called and asked. The salary was not as high as he expected, and he saw that the commission was pretty good, so he was willing to give it a try.

With his hands in his pockets, he braved the snow and arrived at the door of his friend's pharmacy.

His friend's name is Hu Shuai. He is a really average-looking man. His family owns three chain pharmacies. He belongs to the kind of family where a small amount of money makes him happy.

I was old, so I left the business to my friend Hu Shuai. Knowing that this kid had saved some money, Zhou Yong came to see him in the snow, ready to try to see if he could win his first business.

These temporary salesmen visited the headquarters of Freshwater Fund on Wall Street in batches. They had all the certificates and did not look like some liar company. Otherwise, Zhou Yong would not dare to joke about their friendship. They were all neighbors who grew up together. , once the reputation is bad, it really stinks.

Zhou Yong is quick-thinking. The little Chinese guy who trained them a few days ago said that you can't talk about business as soon as you come to the door. You need to use methods to do sales.

Although I feel like I can't do my job well if I have a hairless mouth, I have to admit that the little Chinese guy in the company does have a lot of hair in his belly.

He lit a cigarette and stood in the snow trying to think of a way to integrate what he had learned. However, he became confused as soon as he listened to the lecture and could not remember much of every sentence.

First I backed off, then I thought it’s time to give it a try. As for what to do... it’s just nonsense!

Throwing away the cigarette butts everywhere, gritting his teeth and rubbing his face, he walked into the store. He saw a friend named Hu Shuai standing there watching TV and said, "My mother has a cold. I came to buy her a box of cold medicine." This business has been going on since morning, and I finally got a big deal. I owe you the four hundred dollars, and I will pay you back as soon as I get paid."

The other party quickly put his finger to his mouth, signaling Zhou Yong not to talk about money. He would not be able to explain the money he owed for drinking wine if his wife heard it.

It might be a good thing to borrow money, but he was afraid that he would not mention it after borrowing it. Hu Shuai waved his hand and said it was okay, changed the subject and asked: "Have you found a job? You paid back a big order and went on business..."
