The man handed the menu to Zhong Shi, and it was a little tentative. He saw the scene outside the restaurant before, and there was some strange reaction of Yuan Yuanzhi, who had always been unkind, and he had the intention of finding out at this time.

Zhong Shi smiled slightly, took the menu casually, put it down gently, snapped his fingers into the air, and the waiter who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly walked over and asked respectfully, "Zhong Sheng, is it the same as usual?" ”

The waiters here are quite eye-catching, and they have long seen that this restaurant has a fixed group of diners every day, although these people are not brightly dressed, but they are all extraordinary, and they almost all come here for a leisurely stroll, without the slightest scruple that this is a high-end restaurant, obviously not taking the expensive prices here into account.

Especially this Mr. Zhong, although he does not appear here many times, every time he appears, almost all the regulars follow him like stars and moons. After a few contacts, the waiters here have already felt everyone's tastes clearly, and this Mr. Zhong is naturally no exception.

Zhong Shi nodded, handed the menu to Yuan Yuanzhi, and introduced: "The veal here is good, and there is also an eighty-two year red wine, do you want to try it?" ”

Luo Meiling suddenly showed a look of disdain on her face, and said in a weird manner: "A bottle of red wine costs a few thousand yuan, plus other things, I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands, so it's better to save some." ”

This meal was a treat from her cheap boyfriend, and she had never been to such a high-end restaurant herself, but occasionally heard about how expensive things were here. When he heard that Zhong Shi recommended it to Yuan Yuanzhi, he was dissatisfied.

The waiter on the side was a little dazed, in the impression that this group of people had no intention of paying the bill at all, basically leaving after eating, and the manager here didn't care. Later, he learned that the restaurant was originally only an in-house restaurant, and later opened some areas to the public, so these people's expenses are settled monthly, and they don't need to pay for it themselves.

Now the female guest said about the checkout, obviously not understanding the situation here. It stands to reason that outside diners are not allowed to sit in this area. But these people were brought by Mr. Zhong himself. He didn't know what to do for a while.

"I'll pay for it!" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, the man in the suit took the initiative to speak, "It's rare to come once, so don't worry about it so much." ”

As soon as this statement came out. Zhong Shi had a lot of good feelings for him. Although he intuitively felt that this man had some intentions for Yuan Yuanzhi beside him. But where would Zhong Shi put him in his eyes?

"Meet Chris, Cheng Yijia. Vice President, Fixed Income, Peregrine. A few people ordered food, and in their free time, the man took out a business card and handed it to Zhong Shi with both hands.

"Peregrine ......" Zhong Shi took the business card, glanced at it slightly, and frowned.

Peregrine is now the leader of the Asian capital market, with an operating income of more than 100 billion Hong Kong dollars in '96, which is only a little less than Merrill Lynch, the boss of the American investment bank at that time. The complacent Peregrine executives even announced that they would enter the U.S. capital market this year and strive to become the No. 1 in the global investment banking industry.

But no one would have thought that such a giant in the capital market would declare bankruptcy in the second year of its peak, and the speed of decline is unbelievable.

In addition to the Asian financial crisis and the poor performance of the capital markets in the entire region, Peregrine went bankrupt because it underwrote a large amount of bonds from Indonesia, which happened to fall sharply in Indonesia, and these bonds immediately became worthless, and the result was that the entire Peregrine was dragged down.

And now, I'm afraid Peregrine is nervously preparing for the preliminary work of this bond, so it is recruiting a large number of interns.

Seeing Zhong Shi looking over and over with his business card, Luo Meiling despised Zhong Shi even more, and deliberately said, "This gentleman, I don't know where you are?" Yuan Zhi, why don't you introduce this gentleman? ”

"He ......" Yuan Yuanzhi glanced at Zhong Shi, and then remembered that she didn't know Zhong Shi's identity, so she couldn't help but speak, and secretly pushed Zhong Shi.

Zhong Shi, who came back to his senses, was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Call me Andy, just a financial reporter, very ordinary." I'm really sorry that I didn't bring a business card today, which made you laugh. ”

Regarding the identity of a reporter, he has already thought about it since the last time he saw Yuan Yuanzhi. Because of such an identity, it is a matter of course to be able to board a favorite private yacht, and it is considered a private interview.

Sure enough, when he talked about financial reporters, Yuan Yuanzhi's face showed an expression of sudden realization. The man surnamed Cheng smiled and didn't say anything, but Luo Meiling threw Zhong Shi a big roll of his eyes.

For this snobbish woman, Zhong Shi only didn't have her existence, he just kept chatting with Yuan Yuanzhi, and said a few words to that Cheng Yijia from time to time, and didn't hear Luo Meiling's cold words.

After three and two provocations, there was no response, and Luo Meiling also lost interest in Zhong Shi and turned to Cheng Yijia.

"Darling, have you noticed that there are two people next to us who have been staring at us, I wonder if they are bad people?" Luo Meiling leaned into Cheng Yijia's ear and whispered, while her eyes quietly aimed at Andrew's side.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Cheng Yijia reprimanded in a low voice, then turned his head to take a look, and suddenly the whole person was stunned, he immediately stood up and walked towards the position of Andrew and Liao Xiaohua.

Zhong Shi and Yuan Yuanzhi, who were laughing, immediately noticed Cheng Yijia's abnormality, and they invariably stopped talking and looked in the direction where Cheng Yijia was walking.

Andrew and Liao Xiaohua observed for a long time, and saw that Zhong Shi was just talking to the girl next to him, and he was a careless persona to everyone else, and he understood a little in his heart. It's just that the two of them are really not very good at stalking, and they were discovered after only a while.

Seeing that the man who was at the same table as Zhong Shi came over, the two turned around and pretended to continue eating. Andrew glanced quickly at Bell Stone and noticed that he shook his head imperceptibly, so he blinked his eyes to show that he understood.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Andrew?" Before Cheng Yijia walked to Andrew's table, he stretched out his hand from afar, with a warm smile on his face.

Andrew was stunned, originally thought that this person was just passing by, but where did he think that he would come to visit him. He wiped his mouth with a cloth, stood up, stretched out his hand slightly, and said, "I'm Andrew, may I ask who you are?" ”

"So you're really Mr. Andrew." The smile on Cheng Yijia's face became even bigger, "Chris, Peregrine." I have listened to your macroeconomic analysis several times, and it is very good, and I really deserve to be the chief strategist of Tianyu Fund. ”

"......" Andrew was speechless for a while, he never expected to meet his "fans" here. He has a clear understanding of his fame, and knows that it is just a matter of greed, so his posture is very low at this time, and he said lightly: "It's all some random analysis, since you are also a person in the industry, you know the rules of this industry." ”

"It's because I'm also in the industry that I know how strong your research capabilities are, even stronger than ours, which makes our analysts extremely impressed." Cheng Yijia had a smile on his face, his posture was very low, and he even groveled.

The three of them looked at Cheng Yijia with a humble look, and they were all a little surprised, especially Luo Meiling. She spends the most time with Cheng Yijia, and knows how proud this seemingly amiable man is in his bones, and he is a careless and ignorant of his peers in private.

"I don't know if Mr. Andrew has any plans to change places, if you want, our Peregrine chief economist must be you." After complimenting for a long time, Cheng Yijia said what he meant.

"You?" Andrew was stunned, and then looked at the business card that Cheng Yijia forced into him in his hand, "Fixed Income Department, Vice President?" At your level, I'm afraid you're not qualified to say such things, right? ”

Cheng Yijia's face suddenly showed a sneering expression. At the end of the day, he's only the third tier of the investment banking hierarchy, with executive directors and managing directors above him, and the board of directors above him, and the chief economist is at least a managing director, which is very different from his current rank.

However, Cheng Yijia is qualified to speak out, because he has a father who is a major shareholder, who holds more than 4% of Peregrine's shares, and even has considerable weight on the board.

If he does not have this level of identity, with his education and ability, I am afraid it is a question whether he can enter Peregrine.

It must be noted that Peregrine is not listed, so it is not clear to outsiders about the shares. Peregrine is currently divided into two factions, one led by the Investment Banking and Capital Markets Divisions, and the other led by the Transaction Sales and Fixed Income Divisions.

Due to Indonesia's intention to issue a huge amount of bonds to raise funds during this period, Peregrine sent a strong public relations team to Indonesia to try to obtain this large order. However, at present, Southeast Asian currencies are somewhat unstable, and Peregrine urgently needs very capable scholars from top to bottom to join, in order to use the most accurate and professional analysis and judgment to avoid currency risks.

In this case, Andrew, who has recently successfully predicted the trend of the Thai baht, has come into Peregrine's sights.

However, through temporary contact, Peregrine was surprised to find that the strength of the Tianyu Fund shrouded in the fog was no weaker than that of those well-known hedge funds in the United States.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yijia, the second ancestor, actually mentioned it again in front of Andrew without knowing it, and it was not in an official capacity, this is simply child's play! Andrew thought maliciously.

This fan is a bit of an idiot! (To be continued......)
