Chapter 3100 The Eve of the Storm

Zhao Hong was also a little curious when he heard this, and asked, "Oh, do we know him? There shouldn't be any of our friends who open a restaurant, right?"

Xiao Wanting smiled and said, "Mine is really not, but yours is not necessarily." Oh, say Cao Cao Cao Cao is here!"

Zhao Hong turned his head and saw a capable woman settling the bill for the guests, and if he looked closely, it seemed that there was an imprint, and there seemed to be only one person who echoed the people he knew here in country M, but weren't they in Los Angeles?

With doubts, he asked with some hesitation, "Is it Guo Yi's second uncle's restaurant? But didn't they open it in Los Angeles? Why did they come to SFS City?"

Xiao Wanting said with a smile, "It's been a few years, aren't you allowed people to have a development? With the increasing number of Chinese in recent years, their restaurant business is getting better and better, and after opening a few chain stores in Los Angeles, they began to expand again, and this restaurant is already their sixth store in SFS, which is mainly engaged in some Chinese fast food that can be standardized and replicated. The price is not expensive, but the taste is good, there are already a lot of Fans, and you can book a place on weekdays, and it is overcrowded when you come here on weekends!"

Zhao Hong couldn't help but nod a little and said, "Yes, very good! It seems that they have found their own direction of development!"

Xiao Wanting smiled and said, "Don't praise it! You are also a major shareholder! The money you lent them back then was counted by them as shares, and the proprietress was also a shrewd and capable person, and she was relatively smart, so I used my pocket money to buy a little shares." The couple are the largest shareholders, and we are the second largest shareholder!"

Zhao Hong asked with some hesitation, "How did you think of buying shares?" After all, this is their Guo family's business, can we get involved?"

Xiao Wanting smiled bitterly and said, "I think so too, but Guo Yi told me that this is what she and her parents mean, on the one hand, she is worried about the chaotic participation of other brothers and sisters in the family, and on the other hand, it is to ensure that her second uncle and his wife have the absolute right to operate! ”

Zhao Hong couldn't help but applaud their business vision! Being able to think of risk control when the scenery is infinite is the basic quality that an enterprise operator should have.

"People are not good for a thousand days, and flowers are not red for a hundred days", life is not smooth sailing, and there will be setbacks and tribulations of all sizes, and heroes have suffered many hardships since ancient times. At the same time, there will be many down-and-out phoenixes who are not as good as chickens, and there will be a life path of tigers falling into Pingyang and being bullied by dogs. And the same is true for business management, if there is no risk control, crazy expansion in good times, and then as long as there is a slight carelessness or changes in the general environment will occur "its rise is also sudden, its extinction is also sudden" tragedy, the operator must first keep calm, in the situation is good to expand at the same time to remain sober, in the situation is not good to dig deep internal potential, but enterprises must first survive, especially in the era and society of the economic law is very obvious!

She continued, "Her second uncle and his wife also began to continue their studies, often reading some business management books. Guo Yi's second aunt's daughter is also very good, she has participated in the graduate school entrance examination of several schools in country M, and she is ready to come here to study in the second half of the year, and their husband and wife also have a young daughter together, which is also very happy and happy. And Aunt Guo Yi is indeed a very good woman, brave and strong, responsible, brainy, and thoughtful, if it weren't for that special era, she would definitely be the best among college students! It's a pity that now the culture is a little lower. ”

If it weren't for her low education and the fact that she had a daughter, how could she easily marry Guo Yi and her second uncle? After all, it was a somewhat disabled uncle! And he dared to give birth to a child.

Zhao Hong watched Guo Yi and her second aunt check out in the restaurant and send people away enthusiastically, the standard version of the domestic proprietress image, she was already in her forties, she was wearing a well-fitting cheongsam dress, she looked younger and younger, and the voice of happiness could always be heard.

It is definitely different from the quietness of foreign restaurants, although people do not make loud noises, but everyone is also communicating with each other, some talk about life, some talk about work, casually just like in China, a cup of tea or coffee after a meal, only to make Zhao Hong realize that this is not a small domestic restaurant, but a Chinese restaurant that SFS is not cheap.

When checking out, it was Zhao Hong, and he took a look at the price by the way, although it was not particularly expensive, but it was still far more than the price of Lao Mai, but it was a hu, this is eating, in a sense, it is very worthwhile. After all, it's probably some late-night programmer's lunch!

The two of them went out of the restaurant, and it was already raining lightly outside, SFS was good anywhere, but this terrible winter rain really made him feel unusually uncomfortable!

The two hurriedly went to a nearby high-end hotel, opened a room and lived in, first of all, they turned on the air conditioner, the temperature was adjusted to 28 °C, and they quickly wiped off the water stains on their hands with a dry towel, and Zhao Hong felt a little better.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "The others are very good, only the rain in this winter is a little unbearable!"

She also said a little helplessly, "This is also a matter of no choice! Your finger joints are not badly deformed, in fact, there are many people with joint deformation in Sichuan Province, and it will be more troublesome when they get older!"

Zhao Hong said while roasting his hands in the hot air of the air conditioner, "Yes! It seems that we will not stay here much in the rainy season in winter in the future! Strive to maintain it better, so that we will cause less trouble to others in the future." ”

She smiled and said, "Your problem is really not suitable for coming out, it is the most suitable in the north of the country, it does not snow in winter, and it rains again in summer." Especially in the northwest, it is relatively dry all year round. ”

He could only laugh and be happy, and he didn't know what to say about this kind of topic. As the temperature in the room rose, he gradually returned to normal, and the room was no longer cold and damp, and the two of them went to take a shower together, and the fatigue in the cinema just now was completely gone, and it was nothing to be idle, and the two of them sat on the bed together and watched TV, and habitually changed to the news channel. The sound is also moderately tuned.

Zhao Hong felt as if he was back in college, and the two of them held hands and talked to each other about their youth. He began to blow up many unknown embarrassments about himself, and also talked about the passionate vows he had with his friends, and she also talked about her ideals and dreams when she was young, striving for her ideals, and always insisting on her dreams, and even talked about the time when she met him when she was a little discouraged, maybe her study path has been relatively smooth, but society is really no longer so simple! The competition is not only more intense, but also a variety of clever means are endless, which makes people unguardable!

He also said a little funny that when she met him, other beauties were like fairies when they first met, only the first time they saw her, they saw a very embarrassed look! Beautiful women will get drunk like wine, beauties will burp and vomit like beauties, and the sour smell is just as uncomfortable, even grinding their teeth and snoring in their sleep, and as for deflation, it is just as smelly! Beauty is not as beautiful as she thought!

At that time, most Nasdaq investors were celebrating the new highs of the stock index, and many analysts were talking about a higher 6,000 points. As a result, many people use high leverage, which is to borrow a large amount of money from a securities company to buy stocks. In this case, as long as there is a slight decline, the securities company will force it to cut the meat in exchange for enough cash. Unfortunately, many securities companies are still engaged in illegal overdrafts, that is, lending investors too much cash and charging too high interest, putting investors in a very vulnerable and extremely weak risk-carrying situation.

Most of the active portfolios managed by Wall Street's investment experts have never outperformed the S&P, Dow Jones, or any of the major market indices. The consensus forecast of Wall Street analysts is far more wrong than correct. Stocks that are touted as "strong buys" often fall to the point where they can no longer fall, while stocks that are overlooked often become big bull stocks. According to rigorous statistical tests, Wall Street analysts and fund managers have never shown any significant "stock picking ability" or "timing ability." The public entrusts them with their assets, but they create no value.

Of course, there are very good analysts and very good fund managers on Wall Street, but they are drowned out by the vast majority of mediocre, shallow people who only know how to follow the herd and eat and eat, and they can't turn the situation around.

So on the eve of the NASDAQ crash, there are still many people in the news and information who are making a lot of nonsense. Zhao Hong is also a little helpless, no matter where ordinary people are, they are the objects of being fooled, and they are all fat sheep who are slaughtered. Changed to a relaxed and happy music channel, in which the song and dance program was performed, the two people looked at each other affectionately, and slowly the two people began to ......

The next day, both of them woke up with a feeling of back pain, Xiao Wanting had just turned on the phone, and there were many missed calls on it, which turned out to be the phone number of the left-behind personnel of the company's investment department, and there was only one sentence in the short message, "Watch TV news".

Zhao Hong quickly got up and turned on the TV, changed to the financial channel, and there was a very eye-catching news in the morning news on March 13, the president of country M and the prime minister of country Y suddenly jointly announced that in order to improve the efficiency of human stem cell embryo research, biotechnology companies are obliged to publish the research results they have achieved in this field, and allow public research institutions to use these results freely.

This announcement is tantamount to a thunderclap, and many biotechnology NASDAQ-listed companies dedicated to the study of human stem cells will be blown to pieces!
