Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background

He could feel that what was behind the door seemed to determine his fate in this life.

Opening the door, the furnishings in the study seem to calm people.

The sunlight coming in from the window fills the room with light.

On the desk, a yellow-skinned young man was looking down at a newspaper without looking up at him.

This surprised Charles a little. He thought a lot about what this sponsor looked like, but he didn't expect that this sponsor was actually a young man with an oriental face.

"Hello, Kent Charles, Peter's classmate."

Seeing that the sponsor was still reading the newspaper, Charles said patiently.

"I majored in finance and have won the Fund Investment Advisory Award, the Best Risk Management Award, and the Outstanding Financial Technology Award. I am now..."

Charles talked about the various awards and achievements he had won, but Cao Xing still didn't look at him.

This broke Charles' proud heart again, and he said angrily.

"Sir, I don't know if you can understand English, but I think you should give me the minimum respect."

When Cao Xing heard this, he still kept his head down reading the newspaper and never looked up at him, but he finally said something.

"Mr. Kent, may I ask how I have disrespected you?"

Seeing that the yellow-skinned young man in front of him finally said something, Charles immediately said.

"I believe that respect is based on the concept of mutual equality. You didn't even look at me when I walked in. I'm afraid you don't even know what I look like."

Cao Xing's voice was very cold.

"You have single eyelids on your right eye and double eyelids on your left eye. You look unruly on the outside, but you dressed up nicely this morning to meet me today. It's obvious that you're living in poverty. The white shirt you're wearing has turned white from washing, and you have to wear a coat to cover it up."

Every word Cao Xing said made Charles feel heavy.

"I guess your relationship wasn't ideal back then. Your leather shoes are new this year. Although you applied shoe polish this morning, the wrinkles on them are hard to hide. It's obvious that no lady who loves you has taken care of them for you."

"And you smell like a woman, that's the smell of cheap perfume. I guess you had a lot of fun last night under Peter's arrangement. If you have a fiancée, this would obviously not happen."

Cao Xing kept his head tilted to read the newspaper and never looked up at Charles the whole time.

And Charles was already sweating coldly.

"Are you investigating me?"

Cao Xing put down the newspaper and looked up at him and said, "Do you think I have time to investigate a common person like you?"

"I will be your investment agent in the future. I'm sure you will investigate everything about me."

Charles obviously did not believe what he said, and he spoke it with a strong sense of confidence.

Cao Xing said in a low voice with disdain: "I don't want to explain what I said a second time, Charles. We are both arrogant, but your arrogance is a flaw in your character, while my arrogance is based on strength."

Charles even denied what he said.

"Sir, like you, my arrogance is also based on strength."

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Since you are so confident, please tell me how to make a million dollars as quickly as possible when you have nothing."

Charles frowned, thought for a moment and said, "My major is finance, I can only answer you in a financial way."

Cao Xing spread his hands and motioned for him to continue.

Charles said confidently: "If I don't have the capital, I will choose to be a trader in the stock exchange. In this world, if you want to get started quickly, you have to rely on sales. I have the ability and the platform built by my boss. If I encounter the peak of the market, I believe I can make one million in a year."

Cao Xing applauded. He could tell Charles' understanding of money from just a few words.

What he said was not wrong. The most common profession in the world is sales, and 99% of successful people made their first pot of gold from sales.

“Well said. Although these words cannot reflect your ability in the financial industry, they do show your deep knowledge of the capital market.”

"Thank you for the compliment, Boss. I believe that with your support, I will definitely help you make a lot of money."

He was confident that he had passed the test.

But Cao Xing's next words dealt him a blow.

"But your ability is not what I need most. In my eyes, no matter how strong a person's ability is, it is not worthy of my attention."

"what?"

Charles thought Cao Xing's words were quite arrogant and a question of his ability.

"Sir, I don't understand what you're saying. Doesn't a boss value the ability of his agents the most?"

Cao Xing smiled and said, "That's true. I just said that your ability is not what I value most. I didn't say that I don't value personal ability."

"I'm sorry I don't understand."

Cao Xing explained: "What I value most is communication skills, and financial skills are secondary. Do you understand what I mean?"

Charles suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, what a joke. Even if you have great communication skills, it's useless if you can't make money."

Cao Xing did not interrupt him, but spoke after he finished laughing.

"You may not understand what I am saying. The stock market is your specialty. Please tell me how much money is guaranteed to make a profit."

Charles said without hesitation: "At present, at least tens of billions of funds are needed to qualify as a banker on Wall Street."

"Haha, let me tell you, a person's ability is unlimited. Most people will use a large amount of money to achieve their goals, but extraordinary people can accurately predict the direction of stocks and guess the actions of the banker. Do you think there are such people?"

Charles shook his head almost without hesitation and said, "Unless it is God, there can be no such person."

Cao Xing threw him a piece of paper with dozens of stocks listed on the US stock market.

Charles frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"

"You have ten minutes to write down the number above."

"Sir, please tell me what these stocks mean."

"You have 9 minutes and 55 seconds."

Helplessly, Charles immediately began to memorize.

The boss in front of him was different from others, making it difficult for him to guess what Cao Xing wanted.

He simply treated this as a test. He had a good memory and memorized the numbers in less than five minutes.

"Finished with it?"

Charles nodded and said, "I'll remember."

"Will you forget it?"

"I won't forget it in a week."

"This is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, enough for your round-trip flight ticket to the beautiful country."

"Sir, why do you want me to go to Belle Country?"

“What would you think if I told you this is the stock information three days from now?”

"What did you say?"

"I've already told you that I don't want to explain it a second time. It's up to you whether you go or not."

After saying that, Cao Xing stood up, took the piece of paper with the stock numbers written on it, burned it, then ignored him and walked out.

Charles was left alone in the study, and it felt a bit far-fetched.

Not long after, Chen Dawen came in, looked at him with a confused face, and said softly: "Charles, are you okay?"

After a while, Charles came back to his senses and whispered, "Peter, which is the fastest flight to the United States?"
