Chapter 9 Super Typhoon
You don't understand the world of rich people, you have to be rich to understand.
Of course, if you are a beauty, such as a beautiful woman like Ma Su, you can also proudly show off: we have a little secret, we don't tell you, we don't tell you, we don't tell you.
It's a pity that there are not many beautiful women in this world, not to mention many of them are men.
Fund managers, or perhaps the world of private equity managers, you don't understand, even if you have money, you may not understand.
On September 16, the weekend, under the strong attack of super typhoon "Mangkhut", coastal people responded to the emergency and hid at home, waiting for the arrival of the super typhoon.
The hand of God fund manager circle and other typhoons waited for the feeling of the New Year, everyone's refrigerator was stuffed, the windows were pasted, more than 20 people gathered together, and the whole circle of friends was very lively. Under the convening of Lu Jinlai, the original fund manager of the Hand of God, Huang Wenxuan, Li Xin and 12 elites from the research department braved the typhoon to come to Lu Jinlai's house one after another on Sunday afternoon. Although Wang Yong and the researchers in charge of the No. 7 and No. 8 funds were not invited, everyone tacitly did not mention the topic, and talked to each other about some unnutritious topics.
"The tree downstairs in my house was blown down. ”
"The tree downstairs in my house was blown down. ”
"The tree downstairs in my house, like the tree downstairs yours, has also been blown down. ”
"Yes, the trees downstairs in my house and the trees in the building opposite have been blown down. ”
"Two trees were blown down by my house. ”
"Three trees were blown down by the trees downstairs in my house. ”
"Four trees were blown down by the trees downstairs in my house. ”
"Five trees have been blown down by my downstairs!"
"My building was blown to the tree. ”
"Uh,"
"Uh,"
"Uh,"
"Your building is blowing upstairs?
"Yes, Mangosteen is so powerful, but it doesn't give Brother Ping an face. ”
"Yes, it's too bad to give Brother Ping'an face. ”
……
In fact, everyone has been coming to Lu Jinlai's mansion for an hour, but the main owner said that there was a phone call, so they left them to make porridge on the phone, and this porridge pot has been too long, everyone doesn't know what the main owner means, and they don't want to test each other, so everyone is talking nonsense about some unnutritious words.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting," when everyone was waiting impatiently, Lu Jinlai hurriedly came, apologized, took a glass of red wine on the table and said, "This time Typhoon Mangkhut, I had an appointment with a lot of friends, but they couldn't come, so I delayed a little time, come, I toast everyone." ”
"Cheers, cheers!"
"Dry ......"
Everyone waited for so long, but the atmosphere finally came alive.
"This typhoon, other provinces are worried about the safety of the people of Guangdong, and the people of Guangdong are worried about whether they can take a holiday. There are also some people who are worried that there will not be enough snacks to eat, and a small number of people have already eaten them. We also take this rare opportunity to gather together, come, everyone will not get drunk and go home. Lu Jinlai raised his glass again.
"Brother Lu, you invited everyone to come this time, isn't it, what are the reasons?" Zhang Can, a researcher affiliated with the Hand of God No. 5 Fund, said euphemistically. In fact, as a fund researcher, not all of them are very deep, and it depends on the occasion.
"Hehe, can't you invite all the brothers to drink together without a reason? This time, thanks to Typhoon Mangkhut, we can all get together, I don't know if you have read Huawei's Typhoon Katada Safety Notice. ”
"Yes, it reminds us that if we have children, go home and pick up the children, and go home and hug the pillow if we don't have children. ”
"Well, it also reminds us to go to the supermarket to sweep the goods, nest on the sofa with peace of mind, and watch the weather. Then all the major supermarkets have been robbed of everything, and only chili peppers are left on the shelves. ”
"Yes, Cantonese people don't eat chili peppers very much. ”
"Well, even if the condoms are all gone, there are still a lot of peppers. ”
"Smack," Zhu Ping'an slapped the table hard, stood up suddenly, turned around and left, "I have something to do, go first." ”
"Forehead ......"
"Huh?"
All the researchers were a little surprised, and they all looked at Lu Jinlai.
"Brother Ping'an, give us face, and go back after eating. Lu Jinlai shouted.
"I've already given you face, you have time to talk, I don't have so much time. Zhu Ping'an slammed the door and left.
"Brother Ping'an may not be a little impetuous!"
"Blame me, blame me, blame me for neglecting everyone, I punished myself with three cups," Lu Jinlai poured himself three cups in a row, and seemed to have the courage to say, "Maybe everyone is guessing my intention to invite everyone here, so I, Lu Jinlai, will open my throat and say something bright." I, Lu Jin, didn't come to ask for everyone's help, to return to the Hand of God or to save face when I was kicked out by a junior high school student on Monday. But to be honest, being suddenly driven away by a junior high school student this time was not only caught off guard, but also the biggest shame in my life!"
The scene was quiet for a while, and no one agreed to any shame or shame or other nonsense this time, and waited for the following.
"Do you know why I humiliated a junior high school student, and what the reason is? Is it really just the company's regulations? The Hand of God is a private equity fund with a foreign background, and I think many of you know that you may think that this is a foreign country with a different financial background and different concepts, so there is such a funny thing, because they don't look at academic qualifications, don't look at qualifications, only look at grades and strength. Strength is the only criterion for testing the truth, and I think so too," Lu Jinlai suddenly raised his voice, "Actually, the most fundamental problem is the system. Under such an institutional arrangement, we are shrinking and unable to exert our hands, resulting in our fate not being in our control. It's like this typhoon is coming, and we can only hide, not go out to sea against the wind. ”
"Then Brother Lu, what do you think, everyone is a brother, you might as well be open and honest. Li Xin said with deep sympathy.
"I don't know if you have noticed the recent listing of Qutoutiao on the NASDAQ in the United States, on September 14, Qutoutiao was listed on the NASDAQ, opening 2 minutes, up 48.86%, triggering a "circuit breaker" to suspend trading for 5 minutes; then opened less than 15 minutes, up 80% of the suspension of trading; opened less than 20 minutes, the increase of 113% suspended trading; opened half an hour, the increase narrowed to 95.43% of the suspension of trading; two hours before the close, the increase of 138.43% for the fifth suspension of trading. You say, Qutoutiao is performing well in the U.S. market, but if it is listed in China, what will happen, we can't imagine it, but an App that has only been listed for two years and three months is an App, brothers, not Sina, NetEase or Baidu, which were listed on the NASDAQ before, everyone can achieve such great success in just over two years, we have been in the securities industry for so many years, and I, Lu Jinlai, have been in the securities industry for 17 years, and as a result, I have been kicked out of a junior high school student," Lu Jinlai pretended to be sad, "We've had a couple of 17 years in our careers, and I really don't want my story to repeat itself to you. And the problem of the system is a hurdle that we can't overcome, why should we hang ourselves on this tree again, what they can do, can't we do it?"
Lu Jinlai, a professional fund manager who has served as a strategy fund, finally showed his fangs and guided the super typhoon to the Hand of God Fund Company.
