Chapter 48: The Next Trap
At 9 o'clock, Yin Zibo and Ye Ling met at the bar. Yin Zibo found a secluded table and took out a stack of folded paper from his bag: "My secretary helped me tidy it up, give it to you." β
The bar was dimly lit, Ye Ling turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone, and began to look at the light, only to see the title on the first page: Overview of the wood carving furniture industry and market share analysis and forecast of Crown Company.
Ye Ling was taken aback, and hurriedly flipped down, a total of less than 10 pages of paper, neat layout, all kinds of beautiful curves, gorgeous charts. Ye Ling's heart suddenly brightened, and she was full of ups and downs for a while: "Ling Ran did it?"
Yin Zibo was anxious: "No, no, I dictated it and my secretary sorted it out for me." Dude, I'm secretly putting water on you. You must not let Ling Ran know, or she should go to her uncle to complain. β
Ye Ling smiled and began to look carefully from the first page. What Ling Ran concocted is typical of Wall Street investment banking style, with concise and flowery rhetoric, carefully selected data and charts, well-founded nonsense, and all sorts of tempting hooks.
The main purpose of this overview is to prove that the crown company is the leader of the wood carving industry, which is not difficult, because the crown is indeed it, but how to prove that the crown can make a lot of money in the next five years, the company will double its expansion, and the profits will be astronomical and inflated, then you have to find an "analogue company" and use their data to convince the reader. So Ling Ran began a variety of screenings, choosing the company with the fastest growth rate, but the crown is made of wood carving, and it can't be compared to a company that sells computer chips, so he played a side ball and found a company that sells computer desks, but it is a small company that sells computer desks, well, find a head office that sells chips and subsidiaries sell computer desks to such an infinite screening, in fact, the analogue company has nothing in common with the crown, but after Ling Ran is talking nonsense, it gives people the feeling that the crown will grow in geometric proportions like the computer companyγ
Wall Street's investment banks like to use this multi-analogy method the most, this analogy method is well-designed, the evidence is sufficient, people look as excited as if they have taken a stimulant, coupled with Yin Zibo's thorough understanding of the industry, incisive insights, on the wrong path to push the flames, the result is naturally a thrilling desert. It's like the wedding feast is dispersed, and all kinds of relatives who can't be beaten gather together, and I heard the groom's father introduce there: This is my brother, the minister of the XX department, and that is my sister, the chairman of the XX company. Smelling it, he was in awe, and felt that the groom's family was so prominent, and his relatives were all high-ranking officials, and the groom would definitely have a lot of money in the future. In fact, the so-called elder brother is a cousin of the same clan of the eighteenth generation, and the elder sister is the cousin of the second uncle's wife who remarried
Concocting such a manual is not only to be familiar with the routine of capital operation, which completely relies on the most severe training, and is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, the deletion itself is like looking for a needle in a haystack, it is completely a kind of human bombardment, this is the core combat effectiveness of Wall Street, the middle and low-level staff without exception 72 hours without sleep there desperately selecting data to concoct documents, living a life without sunlight in a modern office for several years, enduring the extreme overdraft of mental and physical strength, and then during the short break of each project, running to the most drunken and dreaming high-end barsIndulge in a night of indulgence, eat the most expensive steak, three-pound lobster, drink a dozen of red wine, and find the prettiest stripper
The more Ye Ling looked at it, the more frightened she became. Five years ago, in order to be able to respond to appointments at any time, Ling Ran filled a drawer full of sick notes. At that time, the hospital was not as strict as it is now, Ling Ran asked all her colleagues to give herself sick leave by the way when they saw a doctor, and they were ready to use it at any time, as soon as Ye Ling called, she casually dragged one out of the drawer and filled in the date on it. The director of the sales department was helpless to see her mother's face, and helped her cover up: "Hey, little girl, you're too strict with others, you want to cry." Ling Ran really had the cheekiness to cry, because she was absent too much and her bonus was deducted, Ling Ran cried for the last time, crying so much that the people around her could only turn a blind eye to her various shameless behaviors
Ye Ling pinched the pages, and couldn't say anything in her heart: My Ranran, you have really completely changed. In the past five years, how much have you endured in the United States
Yin Zibo saw that Ye Ling didn't express his opinion after reading it, but looked thoughtful, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Brother Ye, how is it?"
Ye Ling raised her eyes, looked at Yin Zibo and smiled: "This is what your secretary sorted out for you?"
"Of course. β
Ye Ling smiled: "Her level is good, do you want to come to my company as a SVP?SVP salary is 340,000 a month, and there are dividends after the project is completed, and the number of dividends is generally about the same as the total salary." You ask her if she'd like to change jobs. β
Yin Zibo was startled: "Don't think about it, she won't be willing." "Wow, Ling Ran, you are so valuable, Yin Zibo was suddenly full of joy and admiration.
Yin Zibo used to think that He Gang's 500,000 annual salary to Ling Ran was a fake public benefit, but today when Ye Ling said this, there was a sense of crisis in an instant, and she couldn't be poached by others. Yin Zibo felt that he should be like Ling Ran said, asking for money and shamelessness, and being willing to do anything, such as betraying his hue and sleeping with beautiful women, Yin Zibo doesn't want Plato, Plato's kind of thing can only deceive high school students, and looking at the appearance of beautiful women, he doesn't look like a vegetarian.
Ye Ling said, "Why don't you want to?"
Yin Zibo was anxious: "If people don't want to, they don't want to, people like to follow me." β
"I like to follow you, why, your jj is made of gold. Ye Ling was polite, "Even if the gold is beaten, it's useless, and it can't be chopped down and sold." β
Yin Zibo was angry: "My father has 50 shares of the company, and I am an only child. β
"It takes too many teenagers to realize it, although futures are good, it is better to cash. She should be your mother. Ye Ling immediately retorted.
"How is it possible, women in the world, but anyone who can be a daughter-in-law, who would want to be a mother. If my dad is 82 this year, maybe it's still a consideration, my dad is only 52 this year, okay. Yin Zibo retorted.
The two of them stopped talking, and they were a little upset. Ye Ling doesn't know how to deal with Yin Zibo, this kid is a fierce rival that should not be underestimated, never use money, power, and beauty to test love, friendship and affection. But you can't let it go, how can you stir it up without leaving a trace? You can't let this kid chase Ling Ran, and you can't stiffen the relationship with this kid, and you have to take the IPO from him. Damn, it's really difficult enough, after all, Ling Ran works with this kid every day, the two of them walk around the office for less than a minute, and he is 20 minutes away by car, once he finds out the danger, when he arrives, Ling Ran can be a mother, okay.
And Yin Zibo is thinking, how to soak Ling Ran in his hands, it is best not to cause trouble, there are no sequelae, of course, this will be talked about in the future, the problem now is that Ling Ran seems to be not in the same beat as himself, and the Brazilian turtle has been stewed into meat soup for her, Yin Zibo is distressed.
After a while, Yin Zibo asked in a tentative whisper: "Brother Ye, what do you usually give girls?"
Ye Ling disdainfully: "Send things? I never give things to women, I always pay cash directly." β
"Well, I see that you gave Ling Ran a pot of flowers and two boxes of chocolates, she likes it a lot. "Yin Zibo is hesitant.
"It's a small gift for the first time to the customer, aiming to give people a good impression and develop a relationship in the future, and people like to show that they are very face-saving. Ye Ling immediately said, "If you want to chase a woman, relying on such a pot of hundreds of yuan, a box of chocolates for dozens of yuan, you are living in Grandma Qiong Yao's novel." Look at the men with baked cake faces in Korean dramas, which one is not a luxury car. It's good to keep up with the times. β
"What should I do then?" Yin Zibo thought about it, flowers, chocolates, I wouldn't take those girlfriends to heart when I gave them, why was I so stupid, what kind of turtle to send this afternoon, it was all misled by Ye Ling, this kid.
"What did you give a woman in the past?" Ye Ling asked
"Clothes, bags, jewelry, cosmetics and, of course, most importantly, pocket money. Yin Zibo said.
"That's it, don't you know how to do it, why did you degenerate today. Ye Ling said, "Give her a bank card directly, and then ask her to roll the sheets with you." How simple and straightforward, how straightforward and effective. β
Yin Zibo looked at Ye Ling suspiciously, and then made up for himself, put a bank card in front of Ling Ran, and the next shot that appeared in Yin Zibo's mind was: Ling Ran directly threw the bank card in his face, maybe everything on the desk, including Ye Ling's pot of flowers, would fly towards him, "It's rare to have a chicken in life." You really think I'm a chicken. Ling Ran scolded.
"It's definitely not going to work. Yin Zibo hurriedly said, "I don't know how much money to rush into, and besides, I met her on the road, this kind of behavior is too risky, if she runs away with her bank card, where can I find her." Yin Zibo didn't know that he was going to tell this kind of lie for Mao, probably because Ye Ling seemed to be interested in Ling Ran, in short, he couldn't let his competitors know his thoughts.
"Stupid, who will run away with the bank card? Ye Ling said, "If you don't get a bank card, you will run, and if you get it, you can't kick it away." β
It seems to be a good idea, and if Ling Ran collects money with her first and then sleeps with her, then her uncle is embarrassed to force herself to marry her again? But Yin Zibo shook his head: "Do you send money directly the first time?" You know, I'm a very low-key person. The most decent. β
"Then send something, send something decent. Don't be so stingy all the time, look at what you give your girlfriend, a bunch of stalls. Ye Ling said.
Yin Zibo was anxious: "How can I have it, I will send it to all famous brands." Besides, I'm better than you."
"What kind of brand, do you have thousands of things for women to give? . Ye Ling was not interested in debating this issue, so she said: "If you give a woman something, either you don't send it, or if you want to send it, you can be generous, so that it will be shocking." Like, what bag is she carrying?"
"Well, I often change bags, but it's not too expensive, I've seen her carry a LV, and I've seen her carry a GI, like others, the brands are general, coach and the like. The same goes for clothes. Yin Zibo thought desperately. Ling Ran dressed very eye-catching when she came to the company with Ye Ling on the first day of work, and she usually dressed up regularly.
It shows that she is not really rich, but she loves vanity and likes to dress up. Ye Ling said, "This kind of woman is best soaked." You go to the LV store tomorrow, buy a limited-edition bag, and send it to her. Then I invited her to go to a restaurant in Wangfujing to eat at night, open the room before eating, and then give a box of jewelry during the meal, and spend 100,000 yuan to enjoy the night of romance. β
"100,000 a night. "Yin Zibo is gone, what's wrong, why, Guo Meimei is not so expensive. Beijing's third-rate little stars, there are only thousands of them in one night, which one is not younger than her and coquettish than her.
"I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf. Ye Ling said.
"Oh. Yin Zibo was on a budget in his stomach. Ling Ran is estimated to have a bigger appetite than her girlfriends, those girls' salaries are less than 50,000 a year, Ling Ran's annual salary is 500,000, and she usually gives her girlfriends something, it is estimated that she can't like it, but does she have to spend 10 times more money?
Yin Zibo can't actually be regarded as a real rich second generation, his father became a billionaire or after he was a teenager, the crown was created by him and his father, and the sad history of making a fortune is still stuck in his heart, and now Yin Zibo is in the prime of life, and he looks good, not to the point where he can't find a young body without paying for wide skin and loose meat, in fact, he drove a Ferrari around the street, and some took the initiative to get up and take a ride. Yin Zibo began to retreat, and the cost performance was too poor.
Ye Ling saw his thoughts and immediately said, "Actually, you don't have to buy a limited edition. It's better to buy a low-end brand inside, why, because, the first is a famous brand, no matter how cheap it is, it is expensive, so it has already shown your strength and grade, and second, the first shot will give the low-end in the big brand, is it at least mid-range for the second time, and the third time is not more expensive. You can't fill a woman's appetite at once, you have to hang her and make her miss a little. In this way, she will bite the hook. β
This idea is very much in line with Yin Zibo's mind, Yin Zibo is actually not so stingy, but he feels that he has never been on the bed, and he doesn't know if he can get it, so he throws money like a goddess, which is a bit inexplicable, after all, he is not a belly male and female star;
"You go to the LV store tomorrow, buy the cheapest bag in the store, pack it well, send it to her, and then write on the card: Because I don't know what Miss likes, a small gift is not a tribute, if you have time, we will go shopping together next time." So when she looks at it, she understands that you are throwing bricks and stones. So how to lure the jade out of the fun, shouldn't she also use her brains, take the initiative, be attentive, accompany you to eat, watch a movie or something, and then you give her a box of jewelry, should she be more considerate, warmer, come and wipe her body or something, back and forth, and the third time, you give her a bank card, and you can go to open a room. Ye Ling guided.
This procedure is indeed right, Yin Zibo has always done this in the past, and he doesn't have to break the fee so much, but specifically pressing Ling Ran's person in, Yin Zibo somehow suspected that things were not so easy: "What if she refuses to accept it." β
"If you don't accept it, then you don't have anything to lose. Ye Ling said, "It's a big deal to send another woman." β
Yin Zibo thought about it, too: If you don't accept it, you won't lose it, if you receive such a big gift, can you not accompany yourself to have a meal and watch a movie
Yin Zibo rushed to the LV store at noon the next day: "Bring me the cheapest one." β
The clerk took out the only one in the store that didn't have tens of thousands. Yin Zibo frowned, the bag is indeed not very good-looking, small, shaped like a deformed zongzi, and like an irregular five-pointed star, and there is not even a strap, just two bracelets: "Well, is there a bigger one, a little more beautiful?"
The second cheapest one will cost 12,000, Yin Zibo frowned, this 12,000 went out, hey, it's really a bit of a teacher.
Yin Zibo asked the clerk to pack it for him, returned to the office, and asked the secretary to send it to him.
10 minutes later, Zhang Ning came, gave the box almost intact to Secretary Yin Zibo, wrapped the wrapping paper back, and even the ribbons and flowers on it were glued again: "Mr. Ling gave it to Mr. Yin." β
Yin Zibo almost jumped up: She actually didn't accept it, what did she mean by not accepting it, looking down on me or looking down on my gifts? Yin Zibo originally thought that it didn't matter if she didn't accept it, anyway, she could give it to someone else and not waste it, but Ling Ran really didn't accept it, Yin Zibo was uncomfortable: How can you despise me so much.
Yin Zibo walked out of the office angrily, and under the noses of the two secretaries, he picked up the box, clamped it under his armpit, and walked with his feet up. The two secretaries looked at each other, secretly stretched out their heads to look, and saw Yin Zibo enter Ling Ran's office without saying a word. Zhang Ning turned around, stuck out his tongue at Secretary Yin Zibo, and followed him back to his office.
Yin Zibo put the box in front of Ling Ran: "What's the matter?"
Ling Ran looked up at him: "Why did you want to give me a LV bag? What purpose, what reason, what reason?"
Yin Zibo choked suddenly: My eldest lady, is there any other purpose, other reason, other reason for me to give you LV bag? Of course I like you, I want to pursue you, I can't see this, then you are too idiot.
However, it's easy to pinch this way.
Yin Zibo hesitated: "Well, you worked too hard the first two days. β
Ling Ran glanced at him: "It's too hard to work? If you really think that I have contributed so much, then ask the company to give me a bonus. β
Yin Zibo hurriedly said: "You did Brother Ye a big favor, no, no, you did me a big favor." I am very grateful. β
Ling Ran smiled: "It's right to help friends, don't say thank you, especially don't need to thank you in kind." Otherwise, it's not helping, it's selling labor. This is what I wrote during working hours, and it is also used by the company, and it is not appropriate to sell it secretly in private work, it will not become a difficult outreach. β
Yin Zibo was taken aback: "No, no, no, that's not what it meant." β
"What does that mean?"
Yin Zibo couldn't help it, so he turned his heart sideways: "Well, Ling Ran, I want to invite you to have dinner and watch a movie together in the evening." β
Ling Ran looked at him: "It's okay, why didn't you say it earlier." As long as you pay for it, I'm more than happy to go to dinner, and as for watching movies, it's free, I have to work overtime at night I haven't watched movies and TV for many years. β
"Okay, okay, then we'll have dinner together. Yin Zibo pushed the bag in front of Ling Ran again.
Ling Ran pushed it back again, "I said I would go to dinner with you, but I didn't say I would accept your bag." β
"You agreed to eat with me, why don't you take my bag?" Yin Zibo was anxious.
Ling Ran twisted her head, frowned, and looked at Yin Zibo strangely: "What do you mean? Is there any inevitable connection between receiving your bag and having dinner with you? The purpose of you sending me the bag is to invite me to dinner, isn't it? Then I have promised to go to dinner with you, your purpose has been achieved, why are you still giving me a bag? β
Yin Zibo hurriedly said: "I haven't given other girls LV bags." "Yin Zibo is telling the truth, why send such an expensive thing.
"Then what bag did you send the girl goodbye?" Ling Ran was curious.
"I'll send" Yin Zibo was almost fooled, and quickly took a breath, "I don't send girls brand-name bags." β
"Then what are you sending??, clothes, shoes, cosmetics?" Ling Ran asked.
"I, don't mess around. Yin Zibo was furious.
"Why am I messing around?" Ling Ran wondered, "Okay, I won't mess around with you anymore." Now please take your bag back and invite me to dinner in the evening, and pick an expensive restaurant. β
After Ling Ran finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the computer as if the discussion was over.
Yin Zibo was stunned: Don't accept bags, but ask me to invite you to dinner, the more expensive the better, this is not trying to eat me for nothing. Do you want to do this loss-making transaction?
Yin Zibo saw that Ling Ran ignored her, so angry that he turned his head and wanted to leave, but Ling Ran didn't raise his head: "Hey, take the box on the table, if you don't take it, I'll ask Zhang Ning to send it to you." β
Yin Zibo was so angry, he sent a box back twice. Yin Zibo turned around and squeaked his nest, he really wanted to leave, but he couldn't get angry: "Ling Ran, tell me, why don't you accept it." β
Ling Ran raised her head: "You are a man, so you haven't heard of it, have you?" You ask those girlfriends of yours, have their mothers told them since they were young: Men can't accept expensive gifts for no reason. β
Yin Zibo couldn't cry or laugh: "Well, I really haven't heard of it." β
"That's why they're your girlfriends. Ling Ran said lightly.
Yin Zibo's face changed greatly, and he was ashamed, angry and ashamed.
Ling Ran raised her head and smiled at him: "I said yesterday that I have a straight personality, what do I have to say." I'd rather be angry with others than have words in my heart and let myself suffocate to death. β
Yin Zibo froze, Ling Ranyan smiled like a flower, Yin Zibo had to grin after two seconds, and gave her the most ugly smile in the world.
Ling Ran stood up and sent him to the door: "Don't forget to invite me to dinner in the evening." β
Damn, I still remember this stubble. Yin Zibo is so angry, he really fucking knows how to rip off bamboo.
Yin Zibo returned to his office, threw the box on the sofa with a huff, and sat behind his desk sulking.
Before Yin Zibo could calm down, the mobile phone rang, and it turned out to be Ye Ling calling.
Ye Ling joked with Yin Zibo on the phone: "Is there a party tonight? If there is no entertainment, let's have dinner together." β
Yin Zibo was angry: "I have to invite Ling Ran to dinner at night." β
Ye Ling's heart jumped, and she couldn't help but stand up with her mobile phone: Why, she accepted this kid's LV bag, does she really like this kid? Or, after five years of hard work, her personality has changed?
"Invite Ling Ran to dinner, don't you invite me to dinner? Ye Ling controlled her voice.
"You think I'm willing. Yin Zibo was annoyed, "Grandma's, she knocked me on a bamboo pole." Yin Zibo was angry and told Ling Ran's refusal to accept the bag, of course, Ling Ran's mean words were not mentioned.
Ye Ling was relieved, and suddenly the 100,000 pores on her whole body were comfortable, as if she had drunk a perfect tonic soup: "It turns out that you bought the LV bag to give it to her." It's not that you're wrong to buy a LV bag, it's that the bag you bought is wrong, and there's a problem with the way to send it. β
Yin Zibo was stunned: "What's the problem." β
"I told you yesterday, in women's places, if you want to be generous, you have to send a limited edition, this is a deterrent, especially for a woman like Ling Ran, why do you give someone a 12,000 bad bag, just a week's salary, who will care. If she accepts it, doesn't that mean that she is at this level, can she still expect you to send her good in the future. So it is absolutely impossible for her to accept it" Ye Ling is kind and persuasive, and she is tireless in destroying people.
"Oh, you mean, she doesn't think what I'm sending is good enough. Yin Zibo was a little confused by Ye Ling's words, because he had never dated a girl like Ling Ran in the past, and he really didn't know what they wanted.
"That's for sure. In addition, the way you give gifts is wrong, and the gift is light and the friendship is important. No matter how cheap the thing you give, you have to let her know how difficult it is for you to buy this thing, how difficult it is, and how important she is in your heart. It's not something that money can measure. Ye Ling smiled, "In this way, I am free today, I will come over now, say hello to Mr. He first, and then I will go to Ling Ran, talk to her about business, and by the way, tell her a piece of your heart, and let her accept your gift." How?"
Yin Zibo heard it: Wow, there is such a good thing, Brother Ye, you are really a buddy. Well, does this kid have such a buddy?
"You tell me for me, how can you tell me for me?" Yin Zibo suspected, "You might as well tell me how to tell." β
Ye Ling couldn't help but smile: "I'll tell him that you have never bought any LV bags for girls in the past, which shows how much you value her and how different she is from you." She must be a big carrot with a heart, not only flowery, but also stingy, but when I say it, it is different, from the mouth of a third party, that is, you fell in love with her at first sight, and from then on you have to change your ways."
"you, what do I have to change and turn to righteousness, I have always been very decent. Yin Zibo said, but Ye Ling did make sense, "Then you should come over quickly." If she takes the bag, we'll have dinner together in the evening. You can eat wherever you want, and I'll pay. β
