Wall Street Legend

Ye Dongqing doesn't think that the small and reckless achievements he has made can impress the stock investor Buffett.

Judging from the old man's question just now, it was obvious that he had heard of Ye Dongqing's name before, which made him very puzzled. However, there were so many people around that he didn't ask why, and planned to find an opportunity to ask again.

As for cooperation, I just said casually. It would be great if we can really get financial help from Berkshire Hathaway. It wouldn’t be a problem to buy dozens of Tencent companies. There are so many investment opportunities anyway. There is no competitive relationship with him. It would be great if we all make a fortune together.

But here's the problem.

Buffett can bring him many things, including connections, resources, money, etc., but Ye Dongqing can't bring much to him. He knows what kind of company will develop, but others don't.

If you could be easily moved by anyone, just by talking, then Mr. Buffett might have lost money long ago and gone bankrupt. It is difficult for people with easily shaken personalities to achieve great things. The stock god is obviously not such a person. If he stands at the top of the world, then In recent years, I have much more investment experience than Ye Dongqing.

As Ms. Johnson spoke, he was thinking about how to impress the big donor.

The amount of scattered funds currently received from investors is too small and has been in a state of insufficient use. However, Ye Dongqing has a relatively large appetite. Recently, he has been feeling frustrated that he can only eat a little at a time and cannot be full, just like the food in front of him. There is a mountain of gold, but there is no money to buy a bag to take the gold away.

The greedy nature is fully exposed. As a businessman, who doesn’t want to maximize profits? Finding some big investors such as individuals or institutions is the goal in the development plan. Since the old stock god said we can talk, then we can really talk. , Americans don’t like to speak tactfully.

This year is the third year of the 21st century, and the new year has just begun. Not only Fidelity Investment Group, but other institutions such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Merrill Lynch are also holding similar parties and inviting peers. , Rich people attend parties to build good relationships and expand their network of contacts.

Ye Dongqing's only trump card was that he stood inconspicuously in the crowd. A young man who had just heard him introduce himself to Buffett came over, stretched out his hand to greet him and said, Hi, Leo, right? I've heard of you. Regarding the bet against Edward Jr., you can call me Bruce, Bruce Lerman. He just started developing a private equity fund last year, with a scale of only more than 20 million US dollars.

He looked very young and belonged to the kind of small fund manager who was not well-known. He shook hands with the other party enthusiastically. Private equity funds are different from Ye Dongqing's public funds. It is difficult to set up without any financial resources and popularity. More than 20 million The size of the dollar is already pretty good.

The circle is not big. If you can be friends, don't be enemies. Ye Dongqing shook his head and smiled: The gambling agreement was just a joke. It ended peacefully. I'm glad to meet you.

A young man named Bruce Lerman looked to be in his twenties, thin and sickly. He had blond hair and blue eyes. He smiled and motioned to where little Edward was. He said: I have been unhappy with that guy for a long time. He is one class below me at Harvard. This fat guy likes to hook up with any girl who is slightly prettier.

I don't know what the temptation of so much money is. I guess he often gets it. Ye Dongqing followed the topic. Nearly half of the students at Harvard University have pretty good family conditions, but I think with little Edward's With a family background, he would be the best among a group of wealthy people.

They are all young people and are more comfortable talking about such gossip topics. Bruce nodded as an answer, then greeted Laura and turned to questions about investment. He seemed to be looking for suitable investment projects.

His head was pinched by a door, so when he meets people, he talks about how good a stock is. Ye Dongqing’s words are 60% true and 40% false. He doesn’t mention the Internet industry, and mainly focuses on the recent oil price fluctuations. It doesn’t matter if he says these things, tens of thousands of Neither he nor Bruce can have much impact on the US$100 million crude oil futures market. Selling information rights is like making friends.

If Bruce Lerman really goes long in the near future, he is more likely to make money, but if he doesn't buy it himself, it has nothing to do with Ye Dongqing.

As for losing money, we are all adults. We should have the brains to make judgments ourselves, and we don’t hold a knife to our necks and force ourselves to do whatever we want. If our investment fails, we can’t blame others.

Perhaps because he thought Ye Dongqing had a good personality, Bruce introduced him to his two friends. After more than ten minutes, several strangers appeared around him. They all belonged to a small company with assets under management of less than 100 million US dollars. Big bosses in the financial world can be found everywhere, but that circle does not yet belong to him.

He didn't mean to look down on this group of people. He made friends with seven or eight people, the oldest of whom was only thirty-three years old. Ye Dongqing was relatively good at talking to this group of people.

not far away.

Little Edward had looked at him several times, but was ignored by Ye Dongqing. His temper was wrong, and with the previous grudges, it was difficult to become friends.

Some people will compromise to cater to others for the sake of money, relationships, etc. He is not that kind of character. Just follow his own path. It is not certain who will be better than the other in the future. He has done many helpless things in the past, so he can live a more comfortable life in this life.

The promoter who added his name to the party finally showed up.

Just as Ye Dongqing was talking to several new friends in front of him and promoting his Facebook program, Ms. Johnson, the head of Fidelity Investment Group, came near them.

He took the initiative to greet Ye Dongqing and said, I guess you are Leo Ye, right? The one who bet against my son?

I can't figure out the other party's purpose, but with so many people around me, I won't blame myself specifically. If I tell him, others will laugh at me.

Ye Dongqing replied: It's me, it's a very nice party, madam.

Thank you. I'm sorry for my son. He has a temper like my own when I was young and was more easily agitated. I have already talked to him about this matter. I hope you don't mind. Ms. Johnson said in a calm tone. She is in charge of a company with assets worth thousands. A company worth billions of dollars, its own wealth reaches tens of billions of dollars, and it is full of magnanimity in its behavior and speech.

The invisible pressure made the few next to them dare not breathe. For them who are also engaged in the financial field, Ms. Johnson's height is almost the highest.

It may not have as much wealth as Mr. Buffett, but Fidelity Investment Group has greater influence. Its clients include central banks, sovereign wealth funds, large institutions, financial companies, insurance companies, wealth management companies and individual investors. It has long become a favorite of Wall Street oligarchs. One of the pronouns. Berkshire Hathaway, on the other hand, is more like a normal company, focusing on the investment and insurance industries, and its influence in the global financial market is much weaker.

Such a strong woman apologized in person. Ye Dongqing had to go down the steps, otherwise news would soon spread that there was an unscrupulous Chinese boy who dared to despise Fidelity Investment Group and wanted to raise funds and borrow money in the future. , but it’s even more difficult.

So he smiled and shook his head, and said against his will: Madam, your son is very powerful. It's hard to imagine that he achieved such a high rate of return in such a short period of time. In fact, it goes without saying, I like little Edward's straightforward personality, just because It was some misunderstandings that caused the unpleasantness, and they have been reconciled long ago.”
