Chapter 155: Meetings
Managing a company is by no means an easy task, especially when there are already hundreds of people under your hands, which makes it necessary to build a complete set of rules and regulations to restrain employees, so that some senior managers supervise ordinary employees, and Ye Dongqing only needs to supervise these executives.
The United States has a relatively complete professional manager system, the model of family succession is not recognized by the mainstream concept, because Lao Tzu is capable, but when a son or daughter is not necessarily capable, relying on family relationships rather than personal ability to decide who manages the company, often to the detriment of other shareholders and company employees, one of the secrets to keep the company alive is to always find the smartest people to help manage the company.
On the basis of the establishment of a sound rule of law in the business field and a good social reputation, the reason why Chinese Americans do not trust outsiders is mainly because they are afraid that after others have power, they will occupy and steal the wealth of themselves and their descendants.
The famous Chinese-American who founded Wang An's computer company decided to bypass many shareholders and let his son inherit the position of CEO because he insisted on going his own way, which made the decision wrong and quickly declined.
Ye Dongqing doesn't need to worry, the shares are in his hands, and so far there is no idea that the descendants must become talents, after all, there are no descendants, and the Rockefike family's wealth trust model that breaks the curse of "rich but not three generations" has given him a very good experience in wealth inheritance.
After returning from London, he put his things at home, and at this moment he gathered the executives of the Freshwater Investment Group, a total of ten, to sit together in a spacious conference room.
Half of them are not familiar faces, they have just joined in not long ago, their resumes are like carved out of a mold, they all graduated from top universities, and they all have more than five years of work experience in investment banking, brokerage, fund, venture capital and other industries, compared with them, Ms. Vigo has become a small role that does not enter the stream, but Ye Dongqing has not persuaded her to give way for the time being, at least not in the short term.
"I've been working for a while, how do you feel?"
Ye Dongqing wore a white suit today, and the tie was black, if it weren't for her good figure and her young appearance, she would not be able to suppress this color scheme at all, and she looked full of vitality.
"Very good, boss, your three crude oil futures operations, it makes me unbelievable, the slight fluctuations in the short term are all caught by you, if you hadn't seen it during the interview, I would definitely think that you were forty or fifty years old, this kind of keen vision requires enough experience, so it is more powerful." ”
It's a sycophant, and the person who spoke was named Adam, who used to work for GEICO Insurance Company, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, which the old stock god had just acquired in 1996.
"Thanks for the compliment, the second transaction still misjudged the form, otherwise a private jet is in hand, and you must be more careful in the future. Ye Dongqing said with a smile, he likes this kind of subtle sycophancy.
"I'm also paying attention to crude oil futures, this time it fell too much, and it is likely to rebound in the near future, boss, do you have any ideas?"
"No, no, no, not for the time being, it is indeed possible to rise slightly next, but this high-level cliff-like decline has made many speculators lose confidence, and there is no good news to support it, and the short-term increase will never be too large.
We have more important business, such as continuing to eat the shares of those Internet companies, which are too risky to speculate in the short term, and now we should continue to consider the issue of long-term investment, which in my opinion is worth investing. ”
As soon as Ye Dongqing's words fell, a middle-aged Jew asked him: "But we need to pay a lot of money to investors every day, if we only rely on investing in stocks in the future, how can we make a profit?"
"I see what you mean, Adrian. But my company has always been making money, isn't it? I can make it now, I will only make more money in the future, and you can also get high returns by investing in stocks, you just need to manage this company according to my ideas, and now there is so much money on the books that you don't need to think about dividends......"
The Internet stocks he invested in have lost a lot of money recently, and the Nasdaq has risen and fallen, and it is still maintained at more than 2,200 points, and the rationality of investors has begun to return, and the market confidence is still insufficient.
Not only the new Jew Mr. Adrian De Niro is skeptical, but the other executives are also not reassured, judging from the asset allocation, it is almost impossible to make money from bonds, currencies or anything, and pinning all hopes on the Internet sector, combined with the current form, does not seem to be a safe approach.
It was impossible for Ye Dongqing to give up some of his interests in order to cater to their ideas, and to invest in other industrial stocks with smaller returns, so he decisively terminated this topic and discussed how to continue to expand the business scope of the Golden Island Wealth Management Company, and the meeting lasted until the end of work.
Don't dare to let the employees work overtime, because the salary is too expensive, Tamsui Investment Group will soon be gone, and Ye Dongqing came to the Dalton School in Uptown to pick up the girl to go out to eat......? In recent times, Edward Johnson Jr. has no longer socialized and flaunted everywhere as before, and he has become a fool in other people's mouths, hiding at home and reluctant to go out, and often lashing out.
At that time, he said how happy he was when he lost Ye Dongqing in front of his friends, and now his face hurts, others don't care how much money they should have earned, they only know that the young Chinese did make a lot of money, and little Edward was overjoyed, not to mention that he didn't make money in the end, and even lost some money.
After a week-long cooling-off period, little Edward finally figured out what to turn back to Ye Dongqing for help, and wanted to say that he would continue to cooperate, but he couldn't pull his face, so he came up with a compromise and asked someone to help investigate Ye Dongqing's asset allocation model, wanting to find clues from it, and then follow it.
I don't have enough brains, and it's the right thing to do to learn from smart people, but when a folder was sent to little Edward, this guy changed his mind again, thinking that his good vision and luck in the past didn't mean that he could continue to be good in the future, and when he saw the names of those Internet companies, he was not optimistic about it from the bottom of his heart.
In the end, he gave up on the idea of following the trend and put them aside to focus on Facebook, a company he would now love to invest in......
