It wasn't for the sake of filming that he came to Tamsui Investment Group, Ye Dongqing had something to discuss with Mr. McCord.

Mr. McCord had to spare his energy to buy and build a large piece of land in Hudson Park, on Manhattan's Upper West Side, in the name of Freshwater Investment Group, and set up a subsidiary to take care of the day-to-day maintenance.

"I have communicated with the manager of Citibank, you can find someone to follow up with the city hall and Citibank in the written materials, it is estimated that you have to use a local construction company in New York, and the branch can also do it, and when the time comes, please bid for the project, remember to keep an eye on it, if the local construction company in New York is inexperienced, or the price is too high, I will discuss it with Mayor Bloomberg. ”

When I came to my office, the BBC people were filming the office area and trying to interview some executives, Ye Dongqing said hello to Assistant William and would help arrange it.

McCord has been living a prosperous life recently, counting bonuses, and his annual salary is approaching tens of millions of dollars, and it takes a very short time to jump from an ordinary worker to a working emperor.

This made many senior professional managers on Wall Street both red-eyed and desperate, dreaming of meeting a bull X boss like Ye Dongqing, who could lead the company to take off and reuse theirs.

It has been a while since the cooperation, and Mr. McCord has gradually figured out the mode of getting along with Ye Dongqing, the small boss, almost only need to help manage the company and implement his decisions in place, at this moment he took out a small notebook from his pocket, wrote down a few key words, and asked: "The city hall has given you news, right, how big is the land, how much does it cost?"

"About 420,000 square meters, a total of 1.9 billion US dollars, paid to the city hall in five years, the kind that exempts interest, and there are also certain tax reductions, I think it's okay. "After delaying for so long, the project is finally about to start, and Ye Dongqing feels very cool at the moment.

Although it was not his own money, Mr. McCord was still a little flustered when he heard about this figure, and said: "It will cost so much land alone, and it is estimated that it will cost three billion dollars to build the building, right? The point is that there is nothing around the land on the Upper West Side now, and the city hall is planning it right, but who knows if it will be able to develop smoothly in the future?"

"The property market looks at the policy in the short term, the economy in the medium term, and the population in the long term, the city hall is pushing, the American economy is recovering, and the population of Manhattan is so large that it is almost not enough to live, and people can only live in New Jersey, Brooklyn and Queens.

If nothing else, even the Wall Street where I was born has recently seen a lot of rent go up a lot, and it's said to be a slum, but now white people have been forced to go there, and it's better to be on Manhattan Island than to live in New Jersey. I don't dare to say that it will be successful, at least it should not be a big problem to develop, just a little land, and the environment and vision are not bad, even if only four or five companies are willing to invest in new buildings, they can form a cool complex with our building. ”

Ye Dongqing's head was a little hot at this time, and he was unwilling to accept the rebuttal, so he added casually: "As for the funds, for the time being, there is no need to invest in freshwater, the plan has been revised by me, and it is estimated that it is difficult to build without more than a billion US dollars, you don't have to worry about the funds, we use the bank's money in the early stage, and the money in our own hands has other uses." ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Mr. McCord replied: "I understand, if you want to use it for investment, your hedge fund company has been approved to be established, registered in the Cayman Islands, which can avoid capital regulation to the greatest extent, have you already thought about how to start? Which company will become unlucky and be targeted by you...... Forget it, don't tell me, when the time comes, I want to be the first customer and invest about six million dollars, and my wife agrees, after all, half of the money I make now belongs to her. ”

"I haven't thought about it for a while, but when I have time, I'll take a closer look at the earnings reports of other companies, sit down with other hedge fund bosses for drinks, smoke cigars, play poker and whatever, and it's said that a lot of money-making secrets are hidden in those activities. ”

Before, Ye Dongqing's efforts were not proportional to the rewards, the efforts were too little, the returns were too much, too fast, and it was right to make money, but there was less sense of achievement.

Now that the layout of Tamsui Investment Group is almost complete, most of the funds in his hands have been invested, and he usually keeps an eye on them and takes care of them, which means that Ye Dongqing has more time to do the business he wants to do, he heard that the hedge fund is under a lot of pressure, and every time he makes a move, it is like gambling, so he is a little interested.

To be honest, he already misses a little bit of the time when he played crude oil futures, looking at the rise and fall of prices every day, there is a lot of wealth involved behind it, if it succeeds, it will be more meaningful, even if it fails, it will not have much impact on Tamsui Investment Group, Ye Dongqing will find a way to reduce the losses of investors, so as not to damage his reputation.

Mr. McCord shook his head and said: "It is almost impossible to hear useful information from their mouths, unless they want to find someone to join forces to do business, so there will be a risk of being shot in the back, no one who can get the hedge fund up is a normal person, more like a bunch of wild wolves, biting the prey, no matter which company, will not want to expose the loopholes that will be caught by them, the advantage is that to a certain extent, the market overheating can be avoided, and the inferior enterprises can be eliminated."

Before doing business, I suggest you first study the failure cases of long-term capital management companies in the United States, and then look at some other typical cases, people often think that hedge funds can offset the risk, fearless of the rise and fall of the stock market, in fact, there is still a lot of risk, I don't know what you learned in Harvard, but it is better to prepare a little more. ”

"Yo, you're already worried before you invest in me?"

Ye Dongqing joked: "Don't worry, the teachers at Harvard haven't taught me, so I decided to dig up a group of people from those successful investment banks and hedge fund companies to help me, Mr. Wu Di of Citibank knows, what do you think of him, ask me to have dinner in the evening, I think he wants to come to work for me, hedge fund company." ”

"Sure enough, it's all dognoses...... I will contact the headhunter and strive to create a dream team, for the Mr. Wu in the credit department of Citi, I don't have much contact, so I don't understand it, but judging from the usual performance, it should belong to a very stable kind of person, you should talk more to him and understand it clearly in person.

In addition, some companies recently wanted to poach me, and they felt that most of the credit for the rapid growth of Tamsui Investment Group was mine. ”

"Huh. ”

"Aren't you supposed to worry about it and give me a company increase?"

"Sir, you should know your true ability, think carefully about how many failed suggestions you have given me in total, 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 when he heard this.

Take the experience of pressing crude oil futures as an example, if Ye Dongqing listened to his advice, he should thank God for blessing if he doesn't lose money, and he will still have more or less points.

If he really wants to leave the Tamsui Investment Group and go to charge other financial investment companies, he must first ask those investors how much money they can waste, so as not to force people to jump off the building......
