Chapter 46: Leeks
It's often said that Wall Street controls the lifeblood of global finance, and that's pretty much the case.
The thousands of companies scattered along this street play a pivotal role in the global financial sector, and if something goes wrong here, the financial tsunami tends to ripple around the world and have a very big impact.
Over time, they have developed the arrogant character of Wall Streeters, who prefer to serve the rich, the truly rich, rather than the average middle and lower class.
As a result, the Chinese community in New York has become a blind spot, not many people really care about this group, and no one cares about how much money these Chinese have saved.
In fact, in order to save money for their own peace of mind, most Chinese Americans would rather sacrifice some opportunities to enjoy, and even the aunt who sells fruit on the street corner may have tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars in her bank account.
Americans do like to manage money, this country has a wide range of financial investment channels, just find a middle class, they may clearly express their own financial ideas, such as investing in shops, funds, stocks, bonds, etc., or entrusting others to help take care of children's college trust funds, etc., rather than monotonous and boring banks and so on to get interest.
The open secret is that it is difficult for bank rates to outpace inflation, even for government bonds. It means that although the loss is reduced, in fact, if you deposit money in the bank, you will still lose a small part of it every year, considering that banks that have gone bankrupt in high-risk years abound, making people more willing to buy wealth management products.
Thinking about it from another angle, since banks are taking people's deposits to make money, why not make this money themselves? I have to say that leeks have similar ideas, at least until they are "harvested" by others, they will be confident in the future.
The "leeks" in the United States have become shrewd after turmoil, knowing that they don't have that ability, so they hand over their assets to smarter people to take care of, and financial products have appeared, feeding a large number of middlemen.
The richest people in the world are constantly building their networks to provide more people with jobs and wealth opportunities, so as to make themselves richer.
Most people receive another education from an early age, and their parents and teachers will tell them to study hard and then find a job to support their families, Ye Dongqing does not want this, knowing that it will be difficult to make a fortune.
So, lately, he has been busy "borrowing" money from others for future use of the money to convert the memories in his mind into his own money.
If there are 1 million US dollars, even if the profit is doubled to 1 million, and if there is a principal of 10 million US dollars, 10% of the profit has reached 1 million US dollars, and if the principal base is enlarged to 100 million US dollars, then only 1% of the profit can be realized.
Considering this, raising the principal has become a top priority at present, seeing that people are constantly taking the bait, and the good news has come one after another, Ye Dongqing is happy about it.
Mr. Karneke, who was about to celebrate his thirtieth birthday, walked through the crowd and picked up the microphone and began to introduce the company history made up by Ye Dongqing himself, not talking about how much money Mr. Steven lost in the end, only how much money he earned in the past few years.
It's not a complicated statement, it's nothing more than how good the current employees are, how safe the financial products launched, etc., it sounds like that, ultra-high fixed rate of return is naturally the top priority, and what is more attractive than money.
The number of people gathered is increasing, and this is only the first step in the plan, and when they get a little famous, they will personally come to the door and sell the products to the really rich Chinese bosses.
There were too few people, and the reception was so busy that Ye Dongqing personally handled the money, and in the next half hour, he got more than 300,000 US dollars in investment.
Considering the growth prospects of those Internet companies, even if he only gets 100,000 US dollars and is willing to deposit it in the freshwater fund for two years, he can guarantee that the event held today will not lose money, and the extra money can help him create a lot of profits.
The old employees felt that this was inappropriate, and they were completely making a fuss, and were constrained by the invisible "elite identity", but the new boss personally went into battle and came to the streets to shout and pull funds, and they could only continue to work patiently. If you give these people a cut after getting the funds, most of them will work harder, and Ye Dongqing is still thinking about whether he should do this.
A few students were hired to help distribute flyers elsewhere for twenty dollars an hour, and they gladly accepted the job.
After the news gradually spread, he was so busy at noon that he didn't have time to eat, so he used hot dogs and sandwiches to make do, although there were many people, the investment amount was not large, and the highest investor took out 50,000 US dollars, and only agreed to invest so much money when Ye Dongqing agreed to let him smash the golden egg twice.
During this period, the police came to ask once, Miss Laura chatted with the other party, and successfully let the other party know about this financial product, if the other party's money had not been used to buy stocks, she wanted to invest 20,000 or 30,000 US dollars on the spot, which can only be said to be a pity.
The amount of money kept increasing until 8 p.m., and today a total of $1,146,000 was raised from 63 customers.
Originally, he was supposed to get off work at five o'clock, but Ye Dongqing temporarily decided to work overtime and agreed to give them one hundred and fifty dollars each, so he worked overtime until eight o'clock, and in the extra three hours, he got an investment of 170,000 US dollars, which was not a loss at all.
The number of people who decided to invest on the spot was small, and more than 200 people left their phone numbers, and these potential investors were in a state of hesitation, and when the time came, they should be able to get more funds by calling back.
The prizes are all gone, and the hired workers pack up their things and will come back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to continue.
went home separately, Ye Dongqing drove Miss Laura to KFC to have a fast food.
After ordering the meal, she found a table to sit down, physically and mentally exhausted, she asked: "The number of customers is starting to increase, how are you going to invest the money you got today?"
"With the previous funds, one is left to maintain the company's operations, and the rest is all to buy shares in the same company. If I don't invest in some products, I will probably be targeted by regulators, especially my peers, and if rumors spread on the Internet, my company will definitely be out of luck. ”
Ye Dongqing has a goal, in the initial stage, buying stocks is the most worry-free, he is eyeing Amazon, only 19 US dollars and 20 cents per share.
If it had been two months ago, it would have been around $14, and after a period of low times, it has recently begun to show signs of climbing, and if memory serves, it will rise to more than $2,000 in more than a decade......
