Reborn I just want to concentrate on studying

Chapter 429 In the final interview, sincerity is the strongest nirvana 【5K】

Yi Yang still felt a little guilty.

After all, from Zhao Ping's point of view, he made all the preparations for comfort, but in the end he became the one who really needed to be comforted.

Of course, it was not Yi Yang's original intention that such a thing happened. After all, as Kang Xin's "inner recommendation candidate", it is really inconvenient to publicize this matter with great fanfare.

Then I can only continue to play dumb.

Fortunately, Zhao Ping knows how to adjust himself.

And for him, there is no reason why he has to go to the Minghao Fund as an intern.

To him, it can only be regarded as a tasteless chicken rib that is a pity to discard.

I can't get an interview, so I can concentrate on starting a business.

After a short moment of astonishment, Zhao Ping laughed dryly, "It's really...a surprise, haha...haha..."

Yi Yang sighed: "Yeah, it's quite unexpected..."

"What did the teacher tell you after you went in? It's only a minute or two..."

"Well, it's probably because of the materials submitted before, maybe they have touched a certain point they are interested in?" Yi Yang said lightly: "I wrote a feasibility report on shared bicycles before, and the dean read it. Pass."

"Oh, so..." Zhao Ping showed a thoughtful expression, but obviously why Yi Yang passed the interview was no longer what he was interested in.

The two went downstairs together.

The autumn wind is blowing cool, and the speed of the weather cooling seems to be becoming more and more obvious, but at this time it is not too cold to make people feel cold.

Zhao Ping said: "By the way, Yi Yang, do you know the content of the next interview?"

Yi Yang honestly shook his head: "I don't know."

"In addition to the nine people from Tunghai University, your opponents also have students from other prestigious schools. In the end, there are three opportunities to enter the Minghao Foundation for internship."

Yi Yang nodded, of course he knew this.

Zhao Ping opened his mouth. He still wanted to say something, but he hesitated for a while and held back.

Zhao Ping smiled: "Next, you have to keep working hard! I'm actually quite curious, a sophomore like you, haha...a sophomore...how far can you go?"

Yi Yang shrugged his shoulders relaxedly: "So, even if you fail, you don't regret it, anyway, the expectations are relatively low."

"If you can enter Minghao Fund as an intern, the people who will work with you in the next step will be the first-class investors in the country or even the world, and you will definitely learn a lot of useful things."

"Ah."

"You have your own things to do, and then I have my own things to continue to do." Zhao Ping said lightly: "Fortunately, there is no interview, otherwise, I really don't know how to choose question."

Yi Yang smiled: "I think with your ability, there is no such thing as an interview. It is probably because this kind of mentality was caught by the examiner in a certain detail, so that's why they brushed you off?"

Zhao Ping was slightly taken aback, and his mood improved.

The reason Yi Yang gave him was quite reasonable, it didn't negate his ability, but also logically explained the reason for being banned.

He also smiled: "Oh...it's possible."
-
Although Zhao Ping is a senior, but because he intends to start his own business, and he is engaged in an online media company, similar to the later MCN company, of course, the nature of his company is more complicated.

To put it simply, Zhao Ping's main business scope is wider than that of the later MCN company. In addition to helping contracted talent to continue to output and realize content, relying on some of his family's resources in the cultural media industry, he will also conduct The creation of some online short plays.

Compared with the short dramas on the short video platform later, this kind of online short drama has a higher production cost. It is similar to the online dramas such as "Unexpectedly" and "Reporting to the Boss", which have professional shooting and post-production teams.

Yi Yang also learned that Zhao Ping's company already has several well-known video creators, and they have quite high traffic on Bilibili, Youku, iQiyi and other websites.

In addition, there are classmates he knows, Xiangmei and Yang Jiunian.

Zhao Ping did have the talent to be a director, and Xiangmei filmed several other short dramas with him later, and now he has almost become his queen actor. They released a series of short dramas, which got a good response on the Internet.

As for filming, although he came from a famous school, on the one hand, it is very interesting, and on the other hand, he has a good salary. Zhao Ping is generous, and will distribute 80% of the profits to the team according to the degree of effort. , For students, it is a very generous reward.

Yi Yang knows that Xiangmei's family conditions can only be regarded as ordinary, and the previous few contacts can tell that she is a... how should I put it, a girl who is sober if it sounds good, and is a realistic girl if it sounds bad.

Of course, this in itself is not easy to judge right or wrong.

Although she is in a prestigious school, she seems to have known for a long time that the halo of a prestigious school does not allow her to achieve a leap in class. Instead, she follows Zhao Ping, relying on the resources behind him, there is a great possibility to go further...

So, at least in Yi Yang's view, Xiangmei enjoys it, and even has a plan to go on this road for a long time.

This is Xiangmei.

But Yang Jiunian's situation is a bit special.

Yang Jiunian's personality is more pure, she doesn't have so many utilitarian ideas, and she appears more timid on stage. Zhao Ping provided her with professional recording equipment, and invited a professional vocal teacher to guide her, so that she could concentrate on singing and develop herself. The direction is similar to Chen Yifa'er.

However, Yang Jiunian's personality is not suitable for live broadcasting. She doesn't have a strong sense of camera, and she is not good at chatting with a group of strangers, so she concentrates on making cover videos.

In order for Yang Jiunian to quickly break through the circle, Zhao Ping is still planning to use some resources to invite some real singers or musicians to collaborate.

Even from Yi Yang's point of view, there is nothing wrong with Zhao Ping's operations.

It is in line with the trend of the times.

Of course, Zhao Ping's ambitions don't stop there. He has abundant resources behind him. As long as he can prove himself, he can get more resources.

"Before graduation, I want to do something big! I just can't find the right opportunity."

What Zhao Ping said made Yi Yang have some special thoughts, but the time was not yet ripe, so he buried it in his heart.
-
A few days later, it was time for the Minghao Fund interview.

Minghao Hotel is a five-star hotel and one of the important assets of Minghao Fund.

He didn't ask others to accompany him during the interview. After all, the previous notice also said that accompanying personnel are not allowed to go upstairs, so naturally it doesn't make sense.

The staff at the front desk of the hotel had already placed a signboard in a prominent place to guide them. Yi Yang took the temporary pass, boarded the elevator, and arrived at the 9th floor where he was notified.

Under the guidance of the staff, Yi Yang entered a conference room where many people were already seated.

In addition to several other students from Tunghai University, there were also many interviewees from other universities, totaling more than 20 people.

Yi Yang randomly found a place to sit down, and had nothing to do, so he took out his mobile phone to play.

Most of the people who come here for interviews do not know each other, but as interviewing top talents in the financial industry, they have a similar temperament.

Yi Yang observed his "opponents" silently.

First of all, everyone can be regarded as Zhou Zheng from the image point of view.

Girls put on makeup, so their looks are not much different, and boys, maybe some are fat and thin, but basically there are no particularly ugly ones... This is easy to understand, this industry needs to deal with people from time to time , then in the previous initial interview, the conditions of the candidate's image may also be considered.

Followed by self-confidence, outgoing.

The financial industry is a resource-hungry industry, and many resource channels need to actively maintain relationships, so naturally the requirements for emotional intelligence are high.

It didn't take long for Yi Yang to sit, and some people started chatting with each other.

"Student, which university are you from?"

There was a chubby boy next to him. Seeing that Yi Yang was alone, he came over to say hello.

Yi Yang responded in a friendly manner: "I am from the School of Economics and Management of Tunghai University."

"Wow! That's a class student."

"What about you?"

"Hehe...Peking University Philosophy."

Yi Yang thought for a while and said with a smile: "In many industries, there are many industries where you can't change careers. Soros also studied philosophy."

After hearing Yi Yang's words, the boy burst out laughing, "My name is Qi Zhong, what's your name, classmate?"

"Yi Yang."

After introducing themselves to each other, Qi Zhong and Yi Yang logically exchanged WeChat messages, and then sat down and chatted together.

"The difficulty of this interview is really high!"

Qi Zhong sighed sincerely.

Yi Yang asked curiously, "Peking University too?"

"Peking University only has three places, but there are hundreds of applicants! Oh, by the way, how many people from Tunghai University have entered this interview?"

Yi Yang was silent for a while, and whispered, "Nine."

For a moment, Qi Zhong was taken aback, and couldn't help complaining: "Good guy...the gap is too big."

For a long time, better universities enjoy better resources, but now Tunghai University students have more opportunities, which naturally makes Yi Yang feel an inexplicable joy in his mind.

"Do you know what to focus on in the next interview?"

Although it seems to be a relationship between rivals, Yi Yang will not hide it because of this, and share some information he has learned openly.

"Well...Of course I don't know the content of the exam, but this time the examiner is said to be Mr. Swenson from the Harvard University Endowment Fund, which shares shares with Minghao Fund."

"Oh... the investment industry leader who wrote "The Road to Innovation in Institutional Investment"?"

Yi Yang nodded: "Because Minghao Fund and Harvard University Endowment Fund have cooperated for many years, and the ratio of mutual shareholding has reached 8%, and this time the investment office project is also borrowed from them, so I personally feel that this time The interview is very likely to start from this aspect."

Qi Zhong was thoughtful, and shook his head after a while: "It's because you students in the class did your homework well! I don't know anything about these things, so I can only resign myself to fate."

Yi Yang sighed slightly, although he knew the information, but for him, he still had to resign himself to fate?
After all, the time is short, otherwise, if you read the books of the big guy carefully, maybe you will have some clues, right?

As the first candidate was called to the meeting room next door for an interview, the atmosphere in the room began to become solemn, and the chatter seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding, and they all deliberately lowered their voices.

It didn't take long for the first interviewer to come back with a look of regret, and someone next to him asked, "How is it?"

The man shook his head: "The conclusion of the interview was announced on the spot, and I was clearly told that I would not pass, but I'm sorry, the staff asked not to disclose the exam questions to everyone, so goodbye everyone!"

Under the supervision of the staff, the examinee took his things and left silently.

Everyone else in the conference room heard his words and all showed pensive expressions.

Qi Zhong said: "This interview is a bit abnormal. It takes less than 3 minutes before and after, and the time for one question is probably too long! Could it be that the examiner judged whether he is suitable for this internship program in less than 3 minutes?"

Yi Yang's expression was also a little dignified.

Before at Tunghai University, he went and returned quickly because of his internal identity, but here Zhao Ping's interview time theory should be valid.

Then the interviewers went in one by one, but they often came out within a few minutes.

After seven or eight people passed, none of them could pass the interview.

Someone couldn't help asking: "Isn't there three quotas? It was announced on the spot... If no one can pass, or more than three people pass, then the three quotas will be wasted?"

The staff smiled: "No, if there are more than three people who pass the interview, we will organize the next round of interviews. If there are less than three people..." She paused: "How many people count?" how many."

After listening to the words of the staff, everyone felt the pressure.

The voice of the chat was even quieter, and the meeting room seemed a little depressed.

Soon, it was finally Yi Yang's turn.

"Next, number 19, Yi Yang."

Yi Yang took a deep breath and followed the staff into the meeting room for the interview.

An old white man with gray hair was silently recording something in a notebook, and there were two assistant examiners beside him.

The white old man put down his pen, expressionless, and said in English: "Hello, I am your examiner, my name is Svensson, candidate No. 19, let's skip the self-introduction, I have all your information here , then, let's get started."

Yi Yang sat down and smiled: "Good Mr. Svensson."

Swenson said dryly: "First, answer my first question."

Yi Yang leaned forward slightly, staring at Svensson seriously.

"Please analyze the rescue policies of the four stock markets in New York, Tokyo, London and Hong Kong on Black Monday in 1987?"

All of a sudden, the meeting room was a little quiet, except for the subtle sound of the air conditioner.

After hearing this question, Yi Yang was suddenly dumbfounded.

Although he is aware of the famous 1987 Black Monday in the United States in financial history, but to answer this question, the first thing to do is to understand the cause and impact of the Black Monday storm, and to know the respective countermeasures of several stock markets. Then analyze the internal logic one by one...

This is quite enough to write several papers.

Although Yi Yang claims that he loves to read books, if he doesn't deliberately prepare this kind of knowledge in advance, he won't be able to answer it.

Seeing Yi Yang's complicated expression, Svensson remained expressionless: "You can think about it."

Yi Yang was silent for a moment, and honestly shook his head: "I'm sorry, Mr. Svensson, I don't understand the countermeasures you mentioned about the stock market at that time, so I can't answer this question."

Swenson was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Is this your answer? Hmm..." He made a note.

At this point, Yi Yang silently sighed and gave up.

No wonder the people in front came out within a few minutes.

It's my turn too, right?
But to Yi Yang's surprise, Svensson didn't ask him out immediately, but asked him a series of questions about financial investment.

Those questions either involve too much advanced professional knowledge, and it is estimated that graduate students with a master's degree or above in the corresponding field cannot answer them at all, or they require an extremely extensive knowledge reserve.

Yi Yang answered honestly, he didn't know.

After several times of ignorance, Swensen showed a strange smile, and finally asked a question that Yi Yangneng could understand.

"In your opinion, what indicators can best reflect the quality of corporate governance?"

Yi Yang immediately cheered up. Compared with before, this question was obviously much simpler. After thinking about it carefully, he said: "I think it needs to be viewed from a dynamic perspective to reflect the quality of corporate governance."

"Specifically, it is not to look at what the company says, but to look at what the company does. Is there any new shares issued? Are there any dividends? Do small shareholders have real voting rights? There is a gap between executive compensation and return on net assets. Not really hooked up?"

Svensson put down his pen, a smile finally appeared on his serious face, and the two assistant examiners beside him also laughed.

Yi Yang was a little confused.

"Yi, congratulations on being the first lucky person to pass the interview today." Swensen said.

Yi Yang was still a little dazed, but he stood up immediately: "Thank you sir!"

"Are you curious, why?"

Yi Yang hesitated for a moment, then nodded honestly again.

Svensson said seriously: "First of all, you are very honest. If you don't know, you don't know. There is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, these questions are to test whether you are willing to face your ignorance sincerely. And you are the first The ones who don't use their poor knowledge to force answers to advanced questions in interviews."

"This is very important, because our investment office has always been known for its rigor and professionalism, and an iron law of rigor is... if you know it, you know it, and if you don't know it, you don't know it."

"The second point, the last question, your answer is based on the essential function of the financial system, and what we need is this kind of pragmatic person, so I am willing to give you this opportunity."

After coming out of the interview meeting room, Yi Yang couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and glanced at the time, it turned out that 8 minutes had passed, which was the longest among all the people.

He smiled: "Unexpectedly, sincerity is the strongest nirvana."
