Chapter 194: Some Changes (1)

Qi Yi's work has to undergo some changes recently.

These changes should have happened two months ago.

That is, after Qi Yi went to Melbourne to attend Yan Yun's graduation ceremony.

It's just that Qi Yi's trip to Melbourne almost prevented these changes from happening.

…………………………

Four months ago, Ian, who helped Yan Yun get an internship at Salvatore Ferragamo, left Barclays' investment bank.

Prior to his departure, Ian had to complete the handover of two major projects.

Probably because he knew that Ian was leaving, his Analyst and Associate (assistant manager), except for the two who wanted to follow Ian in the future, the others began to be distracted, and some of them were looking for another way.

Productivity and enthusiasm are much less than before.

The two assistants who want to follow are those who have been working with Ian for two years, and the junior analysts who collect information at the bottom are afraid that the change of leadership will affect their work because they have just arrived in the company, and their daily focus is on finding a new position.

Without completing the handover, Ian had no way to leave his job with peace of mind. He is demanding of the projects he has endured.

One of the two projects has entered the finishing stage, and the rest of the work is mainly documentation, and Ian's two assistants work overtime, at most, Ian himself will re-enter the battle to see the completeness of the materials.

But another project, which is only halfway through, has been doing data analysis for several months, and there is no way to produce results because the conclusions are contradictory.

The amount of basic data is too large, and it will take a long time for Ian to get it by himself, which is likely to affect Ian's smooth departure.

It was at this time that Ian met Qi Yi again.

Qi also won a new employee award at the company's 2011 annual meeting, and he is now recognized as the most proficient miner in Barclays.

After Qi Yi met Ian at the annual meeting, he naturally wanted to talk to Ian more.

During the induction training, if Ian hadn't taken him to the helicopter, he wouldn't have been able to rush to the airport to pick up Yan Yun.

When Qi Yi first arrived, Ian not only told him the best way to get to the airport, but also recommended him many unique restaurants in New York.

In addition to the miners who worked together to open the mine, Ian was the first VP Qi also met at Barclays.

Ian has always been very kind.

When chatting, ask about each other's current situation.

Greetings are such things, Qi Yi must say that he is good everywhere, which is basically the actual situation for Qi Yi, who has a super high love index.

Ian was more realistic, saying that he was overwhelmed by the resignation, especially in the data processing part of a project, because it was done by several people, and the final result was completely unable to be integrated, and he had been tossed by this matter for a week.

After listening to this, Qi Yi said that he would help him take a look if he had time later.

Qi also said it casually, and for Ian, it was another innocuous greeting.

The truth that people take tea and cool is similar in any country.

If Qi Yizhen wants to help him read it, he should at least ask him to give him the data analysis data F (Forard, forward email) that has been done.

But Qi also didn't ask for anything, and left the award ceremony of the annual meeting.

Ian is not Qi Yi's direct boss, and seriously speaking, Qi Yi's communication with Ian is limited to when he first arrived in New York, and he is not a deep friendship.

Because of this, Ian doesn't know much about Qi Yi's way of doing things.

Qi is also the kind of person who will definitely help him see it since he says he wants to see it, he has such a code of conduct for everyone, let alone Ian, a person who is full of kindness to himself.

As a "miner" of Barclays, Qi Yi has much higher authority to call the original data than the front-end analysts, which is why Qi Yi does not need to ask Ian for existing information.

Qi Yi only needs to know which project Ian is handing over in the end, and this message has already been obtained by Qi Yi when he chatted just now.

Qi Yi doesn't like to take over other people's data analysis results halfway, a lot of data in other people's hands, it's okay not to analyze, the more you analyze, the less clear it is, and the data analyzed by others is mostly unhelpful to Qi Yi.

In this way, after leaving the annual meeting, Qi Yi went back to the company to help Ian take a look, and then sent the analyzed data to Ian's mailbox completely that night.

Data analysis is a huge challenge for some people, and several people together can't solve it for months.

But for Qi Yi, it's really just a matter of taking a look and letting the computer run for a while, so easy.

This is the same as doing math problems, if you don't do it, it won't help if you think about it for a long time, but if you can do it, you can do it by dividing five by two.

In Qi Yi's eyes, this kind of data is completely enough to be mentioned casually A piece of cake (Note 1)

After Qi Yi went to Barclays to open a mine, he saw the preliminary analysis reports of many projects, and there were problems from the beginning of the classification.

Qi also uses a new classification method to analyze and enter data, and also uses self-written software to automatically generate visual analysis results for the data.

…………………………

The next day was the weekend, Ian ran to the company anxiously to prepare for overtime, and when he saw the data report sent by Qi Yi to his mailbox in the middle of the night, he was almost moved to tears.

Qi Yi was not in the company at this time, if he was, he would definitely run over to give Qi Yi a bear hug.

It's good that he wasn't there, otherwise Ian, a sturdy American man, would have endured Qi Yi's bear hug.

Kuanke like Qi Yi does not belong to the front-end sequence in investment banking.

Qi Yi has always worked with data, not people.

If it weren't for the induction training, Ian and Qi would not have intersected much in their normal work.

Qi Yi's small "gesture" allowed Ian to complete all the handover work a week ahead of schedule.

Because of this incident, Ian specially invited Qi Yi out to dinner before leaving his job.

It was during this dinner that Ian and Qi Yi talked about a lot of things like friends.

Since it was a friend chatting, Ian inevitably had to ask about the follow-up of Qi Yi's girlfriend who "hitchhiking" to pick up.
