Chapter Eighty-Eight: [Financial Trader Robert Jason]
Robert was thrilled to talk about what happened to him, but it didn't help, and the 3 years in prison were in vain. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But Yang Yong wanted to know what kind of dirty water Sequoia Investment had poured on Robert to make the Harvard University student so excited.
It's been 3 years and I haven't forgotten this humiliation and hatred, so I asked puzzled, "Robert, would you mind telling me about what happened to Sequoia Capital?" I'm just curious about an excellent investor like you, with an investment success rate of 79%, how can Sequoia Capital bear to throw a top investment like you in prison for 3 years."
Robert was very happy when he heard Yang Yong ask, Yang Yong did not look down on himself because he was in prison. Instead of blindly showing personal preferences, but kindly asking why he was in prison, such a person deserves the allegiance of the famous Robert.
So Robert forced himself to calm down and gulped down a cup of coffee on the table. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and very calmly introduced to Yang Yong how unfairly he had been treated. What a dark place Sequoia Investments is, it emphatically explains what a scapegoat is.
After drinking the coffee in the cup, Robert lit a strong camel cigarette and whispered. "Mr. Yang, you are my employer and it is right to know all my past. I will also know everything and say everything, so that both sides understand each other, so that we can cooperate, and everything I say is true. ”
Yang Yong nodded his head and smoked a cigarette, nodded seriously with his chin in his hand, and said, "I know very well what kind of person you Robert is, and I have also investigated your information." You are a very capable trader, and I am very touched by the fact that you have been imprisoned for 3 years and have not dampened your ambition, and I would like to hear your story to deepen our understanding of each other. ”
Robert took a long sigh of relief, took a puff on his cigarette, and then said in a flash. "Speaking of which, it should have happened in October 2002, when an investor in Dinghensvania invested more than $10 million in the gold futures market because he was optimistic about gold reserves. ”
"And I'm the one who did the business, and as the director of the project, more than $5 million in investment went to me. The Pennsylvania tycoon invested $10 million in an official transfer to my operating account. The previous investment went very well, the profit reached 23.5%, and in less than 3 months, I made more than $3 million in profit for the client. ”
"But the good times did not last long, because Sequoia Capital lost a lot of strength in Asia in the past few years, so after 2000, Sequoia Capital unscrupulously earned income commissions for small and medium-sized customers, and even falsified income statements, deferred payments to use the money to invest in oil. ”
The more Yang Yong listened, his eyes widened, and he asked in shock. "Sequoia Capital's reckless deduction of earnings from small and medium-sized customers, or even deferred payments, has not brought these customers a court sue Sequoia for breach of contract? ”
After listening to what Yang Yong said, Robert shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Suing Sequoia Capital, that's a joke at all, Sequoia Capital postponed the payment, and didn't say that it would never pay." Because of a time gap, the longest delay for customers reached half a year, and if these customers sued Sequoia Investment, the prosecution and investigation time would reach 8 months. ”
"After suing Sequoia Capital, the client's capital account will be frozen, and the gains outweigh the losses! Half a year's earnings made Sequoia Capital make money in vain, and the final scapegoat was me. ”
"Because I am in charge of the field of gold futures, and I am the department with the most misappropriated funds in this field, I am the head of the department, and I should not be the scapegoat. ”
Seeing Robert's helplessness when he said this, Yang Yong also asked sympathetically, "It's okay to be a scapegoat, but Sequoia Capital treats their heroes like this." Treat their project managers like this, aren't you afraid of all project managers like you chilling? ”
Robert laughed and said, "Of course, not to heal the wounds in our hearts, Sequoia Capital gave us a cash red envelope of $3 million per person. ”
"Do you want it?" asked Yang Yong with great concern.
Robert was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head with a wry smile, "I'm going to take this $3 million red envelope, so I won't go to prison and squat for 3 years." ”
"I am a person with a conscience and a person of faith, and my mentor taught me that people in this industry must have a moral bottom line and put customers first. ”
"But to receive the ill-gotten gains, my heart will be darkened, and I will never be able to change it again. I will become a pawn in the hands of predator-level monsters like Sequoia shares, unscrupulously make money for these predators, fall deeper and deeper, and finally be disposed of by these predators silently. ”
It's so bloody, it's so brutal, and the water on the NYSE is too deep. A multimillionaire like himself can afford to play, Yang Yong is really scared.
Fortunately, I found a private financial trader, instead of investing money in an investment company like Sequoia Investment, so that these predators would not even have scum to play with them.
After chatting about so many heavy topics, Yang Yong wanted to change his mind and take it easy. So he smiled and asked, "Robert, everything is over, aren't you coming out now By the way, I want to ask, how is your investment sense now." ”
Yang Yong asked very cleverly, tens of millions of dollars of rhodium metal need to be maximized. Robert has been in prison for 3 years, and I don't know if he has recovered his previous skills! If he loses himself to the bottom, Yang Yong will have no place to cry. That's why I asked Robert if his sense of smell was still as sharp as before.
When Robert heard this, he immediately smiled in his heart, and then took out an investment statement of more than ten pages from the leather bag on the side and handed it to Yang Yong.
Yang Yong took it and looked at it, his eyes lit up, this is Robert's investment statement in the past six months, which lists Robert's investment direction in detail in the past six months.
I didn't expect Robert's professionalism to be so strong, since he has invested a small $100,000 as capital in the stock market and used the principle of leverage to make short-term investments. The income is about 20%, and the investment time will not exceed half a month, and the success rate reaches 85%.
In half a year, Robert has snowballed in capital with $100,000, and now he is a standard millionaire. But Robert spent 3 years in prison before he bought a house and car that had not paid off the loan, and the millions of dollars actually made the bank deduct 800,000 yuan. Coupled with the alimony of the wife and children at the time of the divorce, $150,000, and the application fee paid to the headhunter, the total of $1 million has been wasted.
The investment statement is very perfect, but Yang Yong is still not at ease, and wants to test whether Robert is proficient in precious metal trading, so he put down the report in his hand and asked.
"Robert, I've been looking at the heavy metal plate recently, the price of the precious metal rhodium is still rising fiercely, will there be any bubble ingredients in it. Investment predators like Sequoia Capital have set a trap to attract retail investors and then mow the grass to cause the bubble to burst. ”
