The third branch of the Merrill Lynch Center Business Department, World Financial Center, Manhattan, New York

"What is this? Needless to say, this is the key...... It looks like a door key...... "Mannie knew that Jiang Yelin seemed to live in an apartment on Fifth Avenue, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, neither of them had a date yet, what's the matter, this hooked up with the key Chi Guoguo to cause this girl to come?" It's okay to flirt with handsome Asian guys, eat clubbing, go to bed or something, but it's too arrogant to think about giving the key to live together, right? The old girl, who was not too young, couldn't help but sweat a little in her palms.

"This is the key to my apartment, right on Fifth Avenue next to Central Park, a 1,600 sq. ft. three-bedroom, three-bathroom luxury apartment, with an annual rent of $50,000, you can always trust this collateral, right? Give me all the funds you can pull over, and give me a one-month deadline, which is a little shorter, but I can't forget Mannie, right? If there is a loss at that time, I will personally pay compensation, and I will pay a year's rent for this apartment in advance, and it will be at your disposal at that time...... That's good enough, isn't it? ”

Jiang Yelin said so slowly next to Mannie, it turned out that the key to this apartment was only used as collateral, and the girl was a little disappointed, but I heard that Jiang Yelin actually lived in a 1,600-square-foot luxury apartment on Fifth Avenue alone, what is the concept of an annual rent of 50,000 US dollars? Is this kid crazy or does the family have money and squander it?

"I said Django, are you too good at spending? Even if your Merrill Lynch junior salesman only earns $60,000 a year after becoming a regular salesperson, you dare to live in a luxury apartment with an annual rent of $50,000? How can one person need a 1,600 square foot mansion? I live in a snail house of 1,800 US dollars and 300 square feet per month, and my annual salary is 20,000 more than yours! The freckled beauty of the assistant and secretary obviously couldn't understand that Jiang Yelin's income and expenses were so uncoordinated.

The high cost of living in New York is an indisputable fact, in fact, most of the so-called white-collar elites in the United States, almost 40% of their income is used to maintain decency and rent apartments, and the rest is daily food, clothing, socialization and support for the family, Mannie has worked in Merrill Lynch for six years, and her 80,000 annual salary is by no means too low compared with other ordinary white-collar workers in New York, after all, her position is a secretary and assistant, not a stockbroker, and a clerk with an annual salary of 80,000 is an unimaginably high salary in other industries.

"Well, Mannie, I didn't come to Merrill Lynch for a five-figure annual salary, my goal was ...... If I don't talk about my goal now, you can just say it's okay, right? If you can't trust me, then I really don't have the face to recruit other new customers......" Jiang Yelin shook the key in his hand, and put on a disappointed face and was about to put the key away.

"Don't ...... Django, in fact, Old Wood and I both appreciate your talent and talent, and since Old Wood Ken has put three accounts like a treasure in your management, then I ...... In fact, I can also introduce two customer accounts to you, that is, the amount of funds is not much, and the total is less than 200,000 US dollars, in case you lose, you and my income, you and I will lose for a few years......" Mannie's face flushed, and the older leftover women who have read countless people don't know if the handsome Asian guy has a girlfriend in a fixed relationship, but looking at the table of the past two weeks, Django should still be single...... You can't just give up the opportunity, can you?

"Deal! Mannie, you just wait for my good news! Jiang Yelin was overjoyed, funds were actually not his problem, but he could persuade Old Wood and Mannie to hand over five customer accounts and a total of 700,000 funds to himself for management without any performance, that is, the first step to success, and when he took the information and management passwords of the five accounts, and turned back to his seat, Marbury, who had pricked up his ears and smelled something, put down the hot phone call and asked suspiciously,

"Django, I've convinced you, brother, Phoenix and I are working hard to expand performance and develop customers, and you are poaching people directly from Old Wood and Mannie, you are too unproductive, right? You are digging into the corners of your own people, you know that it is completely infighting? I don't know what old Wood and Mannie have been poured into by you, it's unreasonable! ”

"What, Marbury, I'm giving you a chance, don't say anything else, your 25 customers, there are only two with more than 50,000 funds, right, 50,000 is the threshold line of my portfolio, I don't bother to pay attention to less than 50,000, these two 50,000 customer accounts with a capital amount of money are handed over to me, and the annualized return is guaranteed to outperform the Dow Jones index by 3 points. Jiang Yelin didn't plan to let Marbury stay out of the matter, because the average amount of funds among the 185 customers in the whole sales department was less than 16,000 US dollars, so Marbury found 2 new customers who were willing to invest 50,000 US dollars to open an account in two weeks.

"Well, are you sure your portfolio can really make money for your customers? It's not that I can't trust you, but I promised that my clients would be responsible for their investments, so I can't just say that and I'll just work for you, right? "Marbury's heart is as unstable as a cat's paw scratching, since old Wood can believe the lord in front of him, in case he misses the opportunity, in case this kid is really material, won't he offend the three people in the department at once, Marbury believes in the logic that risks need to be hedged, so he can't be a passerby in the GROUPIII cause!

"Okay, I'll bet once, my two big customers' accounts are lent to you for a month, but declare in advance, if the customer asks to withdraw, then you have to implement it unconditionally, don't tell me what to do, you can rebound back and untie this kind of, and the loss will be borne by you! If we win, then the performance of these two accounts is half of the two of us! Marbury struggled for a while, but finally chose to join.

"I said Django, you've been reading the research report and the Wall Street Journal for two weeks, what the hell are you tossing out, what the hell is your so-called portfolio?" Marbury handed over two customer accounts that he regarded as treasures and a total of 100,000 funds, of course, I was very curious about what treasure Django had unearthed, and now the rookie salesman of the third business department has the temporary investment management authority of 800,000 funds in 7 accounts, and I really don't know, what can I do with such a little capital, Buffett's partnership fund is more than 3000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 What's more, Buffett's three words themselves have a huge appeal.

"Well, now that you are comrades in a trench, then I will give you some wind ......" Jiang Yelin casually picked up the Wall Street Journal published today, flipped to the 17th edition, and then pushed the newspaper to Marbury, and said mysteriously, "The opportunity is in the Wall Street Journal, of course, if you change someone else, I'm afraid you won't see this if you look for a needle in a haystack, don't you just poke it out for me......"

Marbury grabbed the newspaper suspiciously, and looked at it for a long time in confusion, the Wall Street Journal has dozens of pages every day, and these 17 pages are not even financial or economic editions, but social news editions, all of which are trivial social news from all over the world, and there is no shortage of many articles that are chasing after the wind and shadows, and it is possible that even amateur authors are contributing to it, Marbury instinctively began to regret that he was on Django. Nima shouldn't have handed over the 100,000 funds of his two customer accounts like a baby to this god-like guy at all.

"Can't see it? Okay, I'll give you a hint, look at this report...... "Jiang Yelin didn't expect that Marbury seemed to be a talented student in business school, and his sensitivity to social news was so dull, so he had no choice but to grab the pencil on the table, circle an article the size of a tofu block in an inconspicuous position in the lower left corner of the 17th edition, and said after punching a cross on it, "Look carefully!" What did you find out that you didn't? ”

Marbury was a little impressed, of course, more unconvinced, so he leaned on the table and lowered his head and began to read the report seriously:

"This newspaper, a factory in the suburbs of Fairfido, Connecticut, an accidental fire broke out in the early hours of this morning, the Philadelphia fire brigade dispatched 20 fire trucks, through guò nearly 3 hours of fighting and controlling the fire, the current fire casualties are unknown, according to sources, the fire is a large company is being relocated in the old warehouse, in view of the relocation work is nearing the end, so although the fire this morning is fierce, but it is not expected to have a negative impact on the company's daily operations...... The public needs not worry! ”

"It's just one fire, and there are dozens or hundreds of fires like this every day across the United States...... Django, can you see the flowers? Marbury put down the newspaper in his hand, and began to phrase in his heart disapprovingly, to see how to open his mouth to get back the customer account that he had just handed over without hurting the peace, at least he couldn't let himself be a villain who was untrustworthy in the eyes of others, right, but compared to his own image and the safety of the funds in the customer account, Marbury felt that the customer was his own food and clothing parents and God.

"Okay...... I can't blame you for being sluggish, I ask you, under normal circumstances, the fire must have a negative impact on the company's assets and operations, right, you can open GE's stock price today and take a look! When Jiang Yelin said this, Marbury realized that Nima, the company that caught fire in the early morning of Fairfido City, was GE, a large company in the top 500? I said Django, there is no report in the news that it was a fire in a GE factory or warehouse, and you have too much association...... Hey, the Dow Jones is pretty flat today, but ...... GE traded 10 percent more than usual, and its stock price rose 25 cents. ”

As the third largest weighted component of the S&P 500, GE ranks third with a market value of 73 billion, only $500 million less than the second Wal-Mart, and the first heavyweight stock is Exxon Oil, which has a market value of 75.8 billion.
