Gold Investor

Chapter 11 The richest man lost contact (3)
"Therefore, after the resumption of trading of Jinsheng's stock, instead of going against the trend, it is better to operate with the trend." Ma Fuxing continued, "After the resumption of trading, if you immediately use funds to receive selling from retail investors to forcibly stabilize the stock price, you will get twice the result with half the effort. Why not First place a few big orders to drive down the stock price. At the same time, release the news that Jinsheng’s fundamentals are very good, but because of Hua Zixian’s personal problems, the stock price was wrongly killed. After noon, organize large funds to go in to boost the stock price .At that time, retail investors will feel that it is a good thing to sell all the bad news, and they will follow suit. Maybe it doesn’t take much effort for us to pull up the stock price.”

Yuan Ruilang laughed loudly: "It seems that being a banker is not based on economics, but psychology. The bankers can make money because they have caught the human weakness of retail investors."

It was past 9pm when we left the restaurant.Yuan Ruilang got into the car and stretched happily: "The business here in Beijing is almost done, and I have to rush to Jiangzhou tomorrow. The mess of Jinsheng Group is enough for us to keep busy."

"I'm about to report to you." Fang Yubin said, "When I was in the restaurant just now, I received a call from Wu Juntong. He asked me to go to the headquarters tomorrow, saying that Mr. Fei was looking for me."

Wu Juntong is the director of the president's office of Rongding Capital, and is regarded as the right-hand man by Fei Yunpeng, the company's second-in-command and president.Wu Juntong has a friendly face, but his reputation is not good. Some people say he is a smiling tiger, and others nicknamed him "Eunuch Wu".

Yuan Ruilang asked, "Why did Mr. Fei summon you?"

"I'm also confused." Fang Yubin said, "In terms of rank, I'm not qualified to meet him at all. All these years in the company, I don't even know where Mr. Fei's office is."

"Did he ask about Jinsheng Group?" Yuan Ruilang said.

"It shouldn't be." Fang Yubin said, "Boss Fei wants to know the situation, so he can ask you directly. Why did he skip a few levels and call a deputy director?"

Yuan Ruilang said: "Boss Fei called me, I have to go, I will know when there is anything."

3 In any unit, the relationship between the top leader and the second leader is always delicate

It was the rush hour for work, and the road was congested badly.Fang Yubin, who was sitting in the taxi, became more and more anxious.Fei Yunpeng summoned himself unreasonably, what is the matter?

The headquarters of Rhodium Capital is located in an office building in Financial Street, Beijing.The rich and powerful Rongding bought three of the buildings, the 11th and 12th floors are the staff office area, and the 20th floor is the leadership office.Although Fang Yubin has been here many times, but at his level, he has never set foot on the 20th floor.

At around 8:50, the taxi arrived at the downstairs of the company.Regardless of the heavily polluted air, Fang Yubin quickly took out a cigarette and lit it.According to his theory, in the smog environment, there are enough pollutants in the lungs, and it is not a big deal to inject some nicotine into it.

After only taking a few puffs, Fang Yubin ruthlessly snuffed out the cigarette butt.Everyone in the company knew that Fei Yunpeng never smoked, and Fang Yubin was afraid that Fei would be displeased if the smell of cigarettes on his body was too heavy.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Fang Yubin arrived at the door of Fei Yunpeng's office on time.The secretary said that the boss was going to meet with some important guests in the morning and asked him to wait.Fang Yubin agreed with a smile on his face, and sat alone in the next room.

The waiting time is always extremely torturous, and now he dare not smoke anymore, so Fang Yubin can only chew gum while playing with his mobile phone.

As the time approached 11 noon, several groups of people came in and out of Fei Yunpeng's office, but Fang Yubin never waited for the call.Wu Juntong, who was passing by, saw Fang Yubin and came in to say hello, "Yubin, you're here!"

Fang Yubin got up quickly: "Director Wu, hello! After receiving the call last night, I changed my ticket and rushed over early this morning."

Wu Juntong nodded: "Boss has too many things to do in the morning, so I can only wait a little longer for you." It is said that at the headquarters of Rongding Capital, employees will call Fei Yunpeng "boss" in private, and Ding Yifu, the chairman of the board, is everyone's boss. The "boss" in the mouth.The difference between the boss and the boss may be the difference between the first leader and the second leader!
"Fei is always a busy person, I should wait." Fang Yubin said with a smile.

Wu Juntong took out a cigarette by himself, and handed one to Fang Yubin: "Sit all morning, smoke a cigarette to relieve boredom."

Fang Yubin took the cigarette respectfully, took out the lighter and lit it for Wu Juntong.Wu Juntong took a sip enjoying it, and seeing that Fang Yubin was still holding the cigarette in his hand and hadn't lit it, he asked, "You just light it for me, why don't you smoke it yourself?"

Fang Yubin had no choice but to say, "I need to see Mr. Fei later, I'm afraid I will smell too much of cigarettes."

"Don't be so restrained!" Wu Juntong said, "The boss is a very easy-going person. Although I don't smoke, I don't dislike others smoking. When I report to work, I often smoke in front of him."

Fang Yubin, who had long been suffocated by the addiction to cigarettes, became bolder after hearing what Wu Juntong said.Cigarettes are gentle herbs, and the two chatted while smoking, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed.Fang Yubin took the opportunity to inquire, "Boss Fei is looking for me this time, what's the matter?"

Wu Juntong shook his head: "I don't know either. The boss called last night and asked if Xiao Fang from the Shanghai company is in Beijing, and said that if he is, he will notify you."

Regarding Fei Yunpeng's summoning, Fang Yubin was even more puzzled.After a pause, he asked again, "Is Mr. Fei in a good mood these days?"

"Not to mention, you've caught up with the good times! The boss just negotiated a big deal, and he's in a good mood these days." Wu Juntong said with a smile.

"That's good." Fang Yubin heaved a sigh of relief.

Wu Juntong continued: "A state-owned enterprise in Northeast China is about to list on the A-share market. Several investment companies have talked with them before, and they all want to grab this cake. Last week, the boss personally took action and won this big order. Among several investment companies , we were the latest to intervene, but the final shareholding ratio was the highest. This company is already in the B round of financing, and it is very close to the time to go public. Like this kind of project, you hardly need to worry about it, just wait for the money to be collected.”

Fang Yubin echoed, "Boss Fei will go to battle in person, so he will naturally save face."

"That's right!" Wu Juntong nodded, "The chairman of this company is Mr. Fei's former secretary. Can he not give him this face?"

Fei Yunpeng's background is well known in Rongding Capital.Fei Yunpeng comes from a commoner family in Shanxi. His father is a primary school principal and his mother is a factory accountant, but his wife comes from a family of officials.Fei Yunpeng's father-in-law had served as an official in three provinces, served as the secretary of the municipal party committee and the deputy governor of the province, and was the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee of a province with a large economy before retiring.

Although Fei Yunpeng's achievements today depend on his personal hard work, it is also inseparable from the support of his father-in-law.After graduating from university, Fei Yunpeng worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for several years, and later joined a central enterprise and was sent to Hong Kong.Later, he jumped to a financial company with a British background and was responsible for developing the mainland market.After the establishment of Rhodium Capital, Fei Yunpeng became the first vice president, and he was backed up a few years later.

No matter how busy he is at work, Fei Yunpeng will insist on playing golf with his father-in-law every week.If you have any doubts at work, you can ask the elderly for help. The father-in-law who has taken care of him is also willing to introduce his contacts accumulated over the years to his son-in-law.

The hour hand pointed to 12 o'clock, and Fang Yubin finally waited for the long-awaited call.I have been working in Rongding for many years, but this is the first time I have entered the president's office.

Fei Yunpeng's office is about 60 square meters. Although it is spacious enough, considering his status, it is far from luxurious.The outer room is a reception room with a set of leisure sofas in the middle.There are photos of Fei Yunpeng attending various activities on both sides. Under the photos are a mountain bike and a complete set of climbing equipment, and there is a treadmill in the corner.It is said that Fei Yunpeng is an athlete, especially fond of cycling and mountaineering.

Going further inside is where Fei Yunpeng works.The two walls in front of and to the left of the desk are bookshelves. The desk is not the imaginative dark-colored boss desk, but a modern style made of bamboo.The arrangement on the table is very simple, only a few documents and an Apple computer.

"Xiao Fang, sit down!" Fei Yunpeng nodded his head lightly, sitting motionless on the chair.Then, he picked up the phone again: "Juntong, it's getting late now, you can arrange for someone to deliver some work meals, and Xiaofang and I will talk while eating."

Fei Yunpeng opened the drawer and took out a book from it.Fang Yubin glanced at it, and this book turned out to be his own "Wealth Has No Myth".

A smile appeared on Fei Yunpeng's face: "A friend gave me this book. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but after reading the author's profile, I realized that it was written by a company employee. Bring you here."

Fang Yubin's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he was still a little proud and excited.He put on a humble look: "If there is anything wrong in the book, please criticize and correct Mr. Fei."

Fei Yunpeng said: "There is a paragraph in the book about investment and wine. After reading it, I think it is very exciting. You said that different types of investment can be compared with different types of wine. Stocks are like liquor, which is a high-risk, high-yield product. Product. Baijiu tastes spicy and strong, so it’s best to order it as long as you like.”

"Bonds are like beer." Fei Yunpeng said, "Bonds are low-risk and low-yield products that can bring investors stable returns. Beer has a low alcohol content and is often drunk as a drink. But it is this kind of The paralyzing effect makes people lose their awe of alcohol, so there are many people who drink beer and get drunk. Some investors who are not satisfied with the low yield of bonds even drink booze by increasing leverage, such as the famous Lehman Brothers, It's just drinking beer."

Fei Yunpeng added: "You also said that real estate investment is like red wine. The degree of red wine is between that of white wine and beer. The key to the quality of red wine depends on the place of origin and year. The commonality between real estate and red wine is quality, which requires careful consideration. Taste it locally and pay a price that you can accept.”

Fei Yunpeng took a sip of tea: "I have read many theories about investment, and none of them are as easy to understand as you."

Fang Yubin, who was praised, quickly said, "Thank you, Mr. Fei, for your compliment."

Fei Yunpeng flipped through the book and continued: "I see that in your book, you have spent a lot of space talking about the Federal Reserve. It is mentioned in it that the Federal Reserve is the most special central bank in the world because it is composed of private equity. .”

Fang Yubin said: "The Federal Reserve is the most powerful economic organization in the world. Since it is a book about investment, I have to mention it."

Fei Yunpeng said: "About this paragraph, I agree with most of the content. But there is one point, which is for your consideration. According to the US Federal Reserve Act, the shares of the Federal Reserve come from 12 regional reserve banks. The shares come from the national and state banks of the districts. That is, at the root, the shares of the Fed come from private banks. So you are not wrong to say that it is composed of private equity.”

"However," Fei Yunpeng changed the subject, "not every shareholder can play a role. The actual controller of the regional reserve banks is the Federal Reserve itself, and all directors need the approval of the Federal Reserve. That is to say, private banks in the United States use Money has raised a grandson, the Federal Reserve, but as grandpa’s private bank, it has to listen to grandson.”

"I once made an analogy." Fei Yunpeng continued, "The institution most similar to the Federal Reserve in the world is probably China's rural credit cooperatives-county-level cooperatives buy shares in provincial-level cooperatives, and provincial-level cooperatives manage County associations."

Fang Yubin said convincingly: "Mr. Fei's metaphor is really wonderful."

The two were talking, and Wu Juntong delivered the work meal.Fei Yunpeng stretched in his seat, then stood up and said, "People are like iron, but food is like steel. If we need to talk about things, we must eat food."

It was the first time to dine at the same table with the president, Fang Yubin was very cautious.Fei Yunpeng was very kind, and he took the initiative to pick up a chopsticks dish for Fang Yubin: "Young people are lucky if they can eat. If a bowl of rice is not enough, let them send another bowl."

Fang Yubin was really flattered, nodded quickly and said, "One bowl is enough."

Wu Juntong on the side interjected: "After receiving the notice, Yubin immediately changed the ticket. He arrived early in the morning and has been waiting in the next room. He didn't exercise all morning, so he probably isn't hungry right now." Fang Yubin Hehe laughed, but in his heart he was grateful to Wu Juntong for his kind words.

Fei Yunpeng asked while eating: "Do you often go back to your hometown in Sichuan?"

"During the year, I will probably go back during the Chinese New Year." Seeing the harmonious atmosphere, Fang Yubin said with a smile, "Boss Fei is really good. You can tell I'm from Sichuan when you hear my accent."

Fei Yunpeng shook his head: "Your Mandarin is very standard, and you can't hear any Sichuan accent. I have seen your resume and know that you are from Sichuan. If I remember correctly, your father was a teacher, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Fang Yubin was very surprised. He didn't expect that the big leader who manages so many things could remember his resume.

Fei Yunpeng had a kind smile like an elder on his face: "In this way, we should have a lot of common language. My grandfather is a private school teacher, and my father is also a teacher."

Happiness comes too suddenly!Fang Yubin could hardly believe that a deputy director of a small branch company was able to enter the vision of the president of the head office.Fang Yubin was so excited that he couldn't speak for a moment.I only heard Fei Yunpeng continue to say: "I heard that you are studying for an MBA?"

"Yes. I only have a bachelor's degree, so I want to use my spare time to recharge my studies." When it comes to academic qualifications, Fang Yubin inevitably lacks confidence.In Rongding Capital, where there are so many students from prestigious schools, Fang Yubin's diploma is really shabby.The delay in being able to become a director is also due to the loss of academic qualifications.

"Being able to write a book like "Wealth Has No Myth", I think your theoretical foundation is no worse than those with a doctorate or master's degree." Fei Yunpeng said.

Wu Juntong interjected: "The investment director of the Shanghai company has been vacant all the time. Yubin was originally the candidate that everyone expected, but because he doesn't have a master's degree, this matter has been hanging there."

Fei Yunpeng tapped on the table lightly: "What are you doing with so many rules and regulations? Who said you can't be an investment director without a master's degree? Many leaders of our head office don't have a master's degree either." ? You can be the head of the head office but not the director of the branch. What kind of logic is this?"

Fei Yunpeng's words can be said to have touched Fang Yubin's heart.He really wanted to echo a few words loudly, but he swallowed the words again.

Yuan Ruilang once told Fang Yubin that the regulations on academic qualifications were decided by Chairman Ding Yifu.So, is Fei Yunpeng's complaint aimed at Ding Yifu?Ding Yifu was born in the army, and joined the business world after he was transferred from the army. His highest education is only a part-time undergraduate.Could it be that Fei Yunpeng was laughing at Ding Yifu when he said "I can be the head of the head office, but not the director of the branch company"?
Fang Yubin knew that in any unit, the relationship between the top leader and the second leader was always delicate.The experience in the workplace also told him that whenever gods fight, it is best for the little people to stay far away.

Fei Yunpeng eased his tone: "Of course, the company has a system, and everyone has to abide by it. You are currently studying for an MBA. After graduation, your education will not be a problem."

Fang Yubin nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Fei, for your concern."

Fei Yunpeng asked again: "Do you pay for the MBA tuition by yourself or by the company?"

Fang Yubin replied: "I made it myself."

Fei Yunpeng said without hesitation: "Your situation is quite special. The company should support the tuition fee. If there is any difficulty in the Shanghai company, you can directly contact me and I will solve it at the headquarters."

"Thank you, Mr. Fei!" Fang Yubin almost cried with joy.What he was happy about was far more than being able to reimburse the tuition fees, but Fei Yunpeng's attitude towards himself.For a poor boy with no background, if he can really be supported by noble people, it is like a pie in the sky.Could it be that the Fei Yunpeng in front of him is the noble person he was destined for?
After the working meal, Fei Yunpeng returned to his seat: "The more I read your book, the more I like it. There are still many questions, let's continue talking."

Fang Yubin calmed down the excitement in his heart, and pulled his thoughts back to the book.Facing Fei Yunpeng, who just showed his affection, he must strive for perfection in everything, and he must not be sloppy in the slightest.
