I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?
Chapter 714: An Ordinary Overseas Returnee’s Work Experience
Two weeks later, Li Yuqing was still standing in the bank's lobby. She had adapted to the job somewhat and learned to take the initiative to greet people passing by, but she still couldn't bring herself to pester customers to sell her products.
In her opinion, she is a returned overseas master's degree holder and is a superior person.
What she is experiencing now is just some small setbacks on her road to success.
During this period, although some passers-by talked to her, no one bought funds. Even if she tried her best to introduce it, those men seemed to hear nothing, and their eyes were all on her breasts and legs.
Naturally, every time Li Yuqing returned to the company, she would be criticized and educated by the manager, who said that she was the worst salesperson he had ever led.
"Li Yuqing, if you don't make any orders this month, don't come next month. I've never seen anyone as stupid as you. You look like a decent human being, but your brain is like a screw loose. According to your resume, you studied abroad. Are all international students as stupid as you?" The manager was holding a document and kept banging on the table, cursing, which made Li Yuqing blush.
"We are a securities company. How can we recruit people by advertising in banks? Most people who come to the bank are here to deposit or withdraw money." Li Yuqing retorted unconvinced.
"I don't care, this is the company's rule. Everyone has come this far. If you don't have the ability, then you don't have the ability. Don't make other excuses. You have all placed orders in the first month here. If you don't understand something, ask others for advice." After the manager said this, he left without looking back.
"You can't do this. You've been here for half a month and you haven't made a single order. I see you're so pretty, it shouldn't be possible."
"Yes, yes. Aren't you a returnee from overseas? Your family must be well off. Our company is just like a bank that collects deposits. When you first get in, you have to rely on relatives and friends for help. If all else fails, why don't you ask your family to buy a fund and that's a deal?"
"Just keep your job first. Then again, didn't you get in through connections? Why is the manager so mean to you?"
"I think that old woman is just jealous of your beauty."
After the manager left, colleagues came to comfort Li Yuqing. Although they only said words of comfort, they felt very happy in their hearts.
This is similar to the situation when I was in school. I got 50 points on the test and was very sad. But when I saw the teacher scolding the students who got 40 points, I felt much better.
"I don't want to rely on my parents. I want to make it with my own abilities." Li Yuqing lied.
Her family’s savings are not as much as Shi Tao’s, so where would she get the money to buy any funds?
Besides, I don’t have many friends in the country, so how can I get orders?
Then she thought again, the manager just asked her to consult other colleagues, and then asked: "Is there any other way to get orders without relying on people around you?"
"Yes, you are so beautiful. We privately call you the company's stock flower. Since you have natural advantages, you should make full use of them." A girl who looked similar to Li Yuqing reminded.
Hearing the praise from her colleagues, the haze in Li Yuqing's heart was immediately swept away. She proudly straightened her not-so-full little chest, and her self-confidence immediately returned.
However, after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong. She was not ugly, but she had been standing in the bank for so long and there was no effect at all. This was not a problem with her appearance, it must be something else.
"What do you mean? Don't I dress beautifully recently? I've been talking so much that my mouth is dry. Those old men don't buy my fund. It's useless to rely on looks." Li Yuqing sat on the chair, sighing and turning the pen.
"You said it too, they are all old men. Old men in China are weird now, most of them have childish aesthetics. You dress yourself so maturely, which is totally inconsistent with their preferences." The female colleague said again.
Hearing this, Li Yuqing nodded and decided to change her outfit before going to work tomorrow.
When it was time to get off work, colleagues began to pack up and prepare to leave. Li Yuqing also turned off her computer and prepared to go home and watch a show.
"Li Yuqing, come here." At this time, the leader happened to come back and called her into the office.
"I heard you were scolded today?"
"Yeah." Li Yuqing lowered her head, like a primary school student preparing to be scolded.
"It's nothing. Everyone is unfamiliar with the company's business when they first join it, but your situation is a bit outrageous. You've been working for half a month and haven't received a single order. China is a society based on personal relationships, which is different from when you are abroad. Sometimes you have to use your brain and put down your airs, only then can you make money. Don't always think that you are great just because you graduated from abroad. 99% of the people in Jiangcheng don't have as high an academic degree as you, but they earn more than you. You look down on others, but others look down on you, isn't that the truth?" The leader took a sip of tea and looked at the intern in front of him earnestly.
"I understand." Li Yuqing replied with a pout, but she was still extremely unwilling in her heart.
She understands the principle, but whether she wants to do it is another matter.
In Australia, she can put down her pride because she feels like they are all the same kind of people.
But after returning home, she had a sense of superiority.
It's like white people going to Africa and seeing everyone as an inferior species.
"Make a deal first and keep your job, so I can keep you and get a stable salary, right? Otherwise, if the higher-ups come to check, with your performance, I won't be able to keep you even if I want to." The leader was pretty good. The company had just been established and was short of manpower.
As a returned overseas master's degree holder, Li Yuqing has great development potential.
Their securities company is at the bottom of the industry and ranks relatively low among all securities companies. Although the group is very famous, its subsidiaries are not well-known in the securities industry.
"Work hard. Securities companies make money by more than just opening accounts and selling funds. We also have other businesses, such as helping companies raise funds. Once you've been in the industry for a long time, you'll have additional channels to make money." The leader saw that the other party was in a bad mood and thought that she felt this industry had no future, so he gave her some pointers.
In fact, every industry has its own small channels for making money privately, which is to take kickbacks to open special channels and solve problems for customers who do not meet the requirements.
Li Yuqing was not stupid either. She understood it immediately and nodded her head vigorously to promise that she would do a good job.
After leaving the company, she started walking towards the bus stop in the distance as usual.
In order to maintain her image as a returned overseas master's degree holder, Li Yuqing always took a taxi to go to the company in the morning, and when she got off work, she would walk to a faraway bus stop and take the bus home.
If you calculate this way, even if you get your salary, after deducting commuting expenses and daily expenses, the balance will be negative. How can you even think about paying off your debts?
Just when she finally walked to the bus stop to wait for the bus, an electric bike suddenly braked, scaring Li Yuqing.
"Damn, isn't this Miss Li? I almost didn't recognize you just now. I rode my bike around you for several circles before I was sure. Did you have plastic surgery or put on new makeup? No matter how I look at you, you look a little different. You told me that you would find a white-collar job after returning to China, but I didn't expect to find you taking the bus here." The man on the electric bike stroked his hair and said to the girl in front of him whose face had changed a lot.
"Fuck, you damn Shi Tao, didn't you say you would stay in Australia to inherit your aunt's accounting firm? Why did you suddenly come back?" Li Yuqing was very happy to see her old friend. She didn't care about the other party's sarcasm and punched him.
Women in Jiangcheng are just so tough, and passers-by are used to it and don't think there is anything unladylike about her.
"Where are you going?" asked Shi Tao, whose hair was a little messy after being beaten, a minute later.
"I wanted to go home, but now I don't want to go back."
"Then let's find a place to eat and drink." Seeing that his old classmate was in a bad mood, Shi Tao patted the seat behind him.
"Just sit on this thing? I don't want to." Li Yuqing shook her head in disgust.
"If you don't want to take the bus, just take it. Bye." Shi Tao hummed in his father's Beijing accent.
"Hey~ wait, let me sit, let me sit." Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Li Yuqing immediately grabbed Shi Tao's clothes and jumped onto the electric bike.
Wuchang, Liangdao Street.
Li Yuqing was slurping a bowl of beef noodles with one hand and grabbing barbecue with the other, like a starving ghost.
Shi Tao next to him widened his eyes and asked in disbelief: "How long have you not eaten?"
"I'm trying to lose weight recently." Li Yuqing puffed her cheeks and answered vaguely.
Suddenly thinking of something, Li Yuqing put down the barbecue in her hand, grabbed his arm and asked: "By the way, do you want to buy funds? Opening a stock account is also fine."
"Stop grabbing my arm! This is right in front of my ex-ex-girlfriend's house. It would be embarrassing if she saw us."
"Didn't you just return to China? Why are you still talking about your ex-ex-girlfriend?"
"I've talked to several of them..." Shi Tao replied in a low voice.
Shi Tao is such a playboy, changing his girlfriend every week or every two weeks.
"What are you doing now?" Li Yuqing asked again.
After the two of them talked for a while, she sighed silently.
It seems that Shi Tao is not doing well either. Like her, he has no background and his family is poor. When he returned to China, he had nothing but a fancy-looking diploma.
"Why are you in such a hurry? If working doesn't work out, just start your own business. When I open my own company, I'll introduce some clients to you." Shi Tao was full of confidence.
However, Li Yuqing didn't believe it at all.
Having been together day and night for the past few years in college, how could she not know what kind of person he is?
He is not cut out for business at all.
"You haven't told me why you have so many girlfriends. Were they introduced by your family? Your family situation is not as good as mine. Who would date you?" Li Yuqing took a sip of beer.
"Blind date? Not happening. I don't want to get married, I just want to fall in love. As for how I found so many girlfriends... Ding ding ding, that's how I relied on this." Shi Tao took out his mobile phone in a showy manner and opened an app.
This is a new social software - Momo, which will also be known as the tool for hooking up in the future.
It’s just that Momo was just released not long ago, so it can still be considered a normal tool for making friends.
People share their daily lives and post selfies on it, and young people can easily find good people of the opposite sex on it.
"Hey, this is good." Li Yuqing seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and her body began to shake with excitement.
"I advise you not to download it. It's impossible to get married with the person you find on it." Shi Tao is now a veteran and knows a lot.
"Who the hell is looking for someone to marry? I thought of a way to make money by soliciting orders, hehe." Li Yuqing said with a silly smile while holding her cell phone.
Soon, Shi Tao called three friends and said he wanted to discuss business.
The three young men who came were about the same age as Shi Tao and his friends, but judging from their faces, they did not seem to be good people.
People in China generally look older than international students, probably because of the pressure of life. These people exude a social atmosphere, which makes people wonder whether their profession is legal or not.
"Oh, your new girlfriend is so beautiful." The oldest and the leader among the three began to praise Li Yuqing after sitting down.
"No, no, classmate, classmate." Shi Tao waved his hand and poured a glass of wine for the other party.
Li Yuqing, who was still immersed in Momo, greeted him casually and started playing with her mobile phone.
Seeing that Li Yuqing didn't like to pay attention to them, the young man was a little unhappy, but he didn't show any anger. Instead, he picked up the skewers on the table and said, "Is the money ready?"
"I've told the old man that this is all the money we have at home, a total of 500,000 yuan." Shi Tao touched his nose awkwardly.
"What? You have half a million? Come on, buy my fund." Li Yuqing shouted, putting down her phone.
"You're crazy! Those were all the money my father saved with decades of hard work. Who would want to buy your crappy fund?" Shi Tao said bluntly.
"Haha, it turns out you are a beautiful girl working in finance. I will introduce some business to you next time." The young man smiled.
"Just you?" Li Yuqing looked at the other party with some suspicion. She had already analyzed these three people when they first came.
They didn't have any branded clothes on, except for their shoes which looked a little expensive, but who knows if they were from Putian. Naturally, Li Yuqing defined the three of them as poor people, so she didn't want to pay attention to them just now.
"See the Porsche next to me? That's mine. My brother is also in the financial circle and knows a lot of rich people." The young man pointed to a car on the side of the road.
In fact, it is just the cheapest model of Porsche, and it is a second-hand car, not worth much money.
But Li Yuqing, who knew nothing about cars, blinked, as if the young man in front of her suddenly became pleasing to the eye.
"Brother, are you in the financial circle?" Li Yuqing raised her glass and clinked it with the other party.
"That's right, that's right. I'm going to set up a new financial company now, that is, in partnership with Shi Tao..." The young man chuckled, and then he looked at Shi Tao again: "Five hundred thousand is a bit little. But with my money, it should be enough. When the time comes, the four of us will be partners, and you will own 25% of the shares."
"Why? Didn't they both pay any money?" Shi Tao became anxious after hearing this.
"We pay the money and they work hard. Isn't that fair? Come on, let's drink. Don't worry about this little money. We are all brothers. Do brothers need to calculate with each other?" The young man raised his glass, trying to avoid the topic.
Soon, Shi Tao, a carefree man, forgot about the shares, and they started drinking and chatting happily. Li Yuqing wanted to get the order, and kept praising the other party for being young and promising, and even driving a Porsche.
early morning.
After returning home, Li Yuqing lay on the bed holding her phone and smiling foolishly. She registered a Momo account and then posted various photos of herself on it.
Before long, someone liked and commented on her post, and said a lot of compliments.
Li Yuqing opened a private chat and chatted with dozens of people at the same time, and changed the nicknames of the other parties to Fund No. 1, Fund No. 2, etc.
She felt unsatisfied and quickly checked out photos of other girls and analyzed the aesthetic tastes of wealthy people in the country.
Finally, she came to a conclusion that most of the rich people in China are now in their 40s and 50s. In the past, old men in China liked long legs, but now only young men like this kind of queen style, while older men like the petite and cute type.
After rummaging through the closet, Li Yuqing finally found a similar outfit that her cousin had left behind when she came to live with them.
Looking at her little face in the mirror which was a little red due to drinking, Li Yuqing rubbed her trigeminal nerve which was a little swollen. Thinking about having to get up early for work the next day, she immediately got into bed.
The next day.
Li Yuqing changed her image. She wore a cartoon headband, a small skirt, black leather shoes, and a cute look like an Sakura girl. She made the old men who came to the bank to do business feel a little unable to walk.
Many people even took the initiative to ask about the fund's situation, which made Li Yuqing very happy.
An order was placed within an hour. Although the amount was small, it was a good start.
The only downside was that the old man who wrote the bill actually asked for her phone number.
On the surface, he said he wanted to inquire further about the situation of the fund, but in fact he kept sending her some irrelevant greetings in private.
This may be the advantage of domestic female salespeople. As long as their image meets the needs of customers, they can get orders more easily.
"Oh, we actually opened three orders today." After returning to the company, the female manager looked at the documents handed over by Li Yuqing, her eyes full of shock.
After putting down the documents, the female manager looked at her clothes and frowned again: "Why are you dressed like this? Do you think this is a kindergarten? Your clothes represent the image of the company, do you know that? Change them back tomorrow. What nonsense..."
"What's wrong with this? As long as it can bring in orders, it's fine." Li Yuqing muttered in dissatisfaction.
"We are a formal company. Don't think that just getting orders will do the job. Others who don't dress like you also get orders. Think about where the problem lies. And I have to say one more thing, I am your leader, you have to do whatever I say, and if you don't want to do it anymore, just get out." The female manager was so angry that her nose was crooked. She hated people talking back the most.
Li Yuqing just opened her business today, but her good days were over, which made her focus back on Momo. She wanted to use Momo's huge user base to place her own advertisements, that is, to chat with men first, and then get them to open accounts and buy funds.
Damn it, I must make a name for myself. I don’t believe that a returned overseas master’s degree holder like me can’t make a name for myself.
Li Yuqing swore in her heart.
That day, Chen Xi, who had returned to Xinlu, was planning to go to Xinde for inspection after work.
Just as I was about to leave the office, a strange phone call came on my cell phone.
"Meet and talk?"
"Oh that's fine."
The caller was the girl from the last auction. Chen Xi felt that he had whetted her appetite enough, so he agreed immediately. (End of this chapter)
