Wall Street Legend

Chatted on the phone.

She had been sulking for so long, and Ye Dongqing called her several times. She apologized to everyone who needed to apologize, and her attitude was more sincere. In addition, she was mentally prepared for the matter of philandering.

Laura finally found the steps and walked down by herself. She deliberately avoided sensitive topics and talked about recent events, such as her campus life at University College London and some things at work. She only said that she took over the job with the help of her agency. When I came to a movie, I played a supporting female role in it, because when talking about Victoria's Secret, both of them would think of another woman, without mentioning this company. There was a great understanding.

Sometimes, Ye Dongqing even forgets that he is still a student at Harvard, and suddenly realizes that he has not been back for more than a year, and neither his tutor nor the senior management of the business school seem to have the intention to urge or remind him. Logically speaking, I will graduate today in June, and there will be no thesis, defense or anything like that.

If he hadn't occasionally seen Harvard University's official account boasting about himself on Facebook, such as when Forbes magazine came out this year and he ranked third on the list, Ye Dongqing might have thought that he had been expelled.

I was thinking whether I should go back recently and hire some cheap and easy-to-use elites to work as interns in the company. Last year, I won over a group of people with my alumni status, about 200 people, and some of them have now become part of the company. , the Harvard Department is the only one under him, and there are actually a lot of talents from the same Ivy League school, but they are not united enough.

Because Ye Dongqing was also branded with the Harvard label, although there were some factional disputes, there was not much trouble. It was regarded as healthy internal competition. This phenomenon also exists in other large companies.

Wall Street financial circles, lawyers, doctors, professional managers, even judges and politicians, these fields attach great importance to academic qualifications, and an unspoken rule has long been formed. People from unknown schools will be squeezed out even if they have the ability. It can be said that a job in a prestigious school Graduation certificate means a stepping stone for different people to enter the upper class society.

Because he is one of his own, Ye Dongqing often feels the kindness from Harvard alumni. Of course, these are also closely related to his personal achievements.

As the only Chinese-American among the top ten richest people in the world, his influence is not small now. He just deliberately keeps a low profile and does not use these resources. He is temporarily making a fortune in silence. As he gets older, he is bound to get more involved. some activities.

Xiangjiang Lao Li ranked 20th last year. It is difficult to estimate how much money he has hidden secretly, but it is only one-third of Ye Dongqing's money.

Ye Dongqing's ranking this year is likely to surpass Mr. Buffett's, but Gates has almost 50 billion US dollars, and he still donates part of the remaining wealth. It is still uncertain whether he can reach the top this year. It mainly depends on Facebook. The market development progress, Apple's performance, and other industries together are also a big piece of cake. Just like Green Mountain Coffee, it has begun to exert its strength. With the launch of advertising, sales have increased by more than 30 times!

The saplings he planted have begun to bear fruit. People really don't know how to describe his success except in disbelief. This is just the beginning.

There is no need to worry about the business landscape. There are some minor problems in personal life, but they are being solved one by one. He has a confidante and a daughter. After comforting Laura, he asked her to come to New York to play when she has time, and then hung up. Telephone

I was on the island that day and visited the botanical garden under construction. The equipment was being debugged. Several huge baobab trees transported from Africa were being planted into the soil by workers. There were also many desert vegetation growing around them. The largest cactus is more than seven meters tall. They are all carefully selected and beautiful in appearance. It will take almost four months to prepare before they can be opened to the public.

There are a group of macaws in the tropical garden, and there are jackfruits, mangoes, etc. I guess I won’t have to buy them in the market in the future. I spent a lot of money on this botanical garden, but Ye Dongqing thinks it’s worth it to create such a back garden. , this is enough, you can't just make money without spending money, then there is no motivation to make money.

During the day of the next day, I talked with several senior executives of Apple and Mr. Bezos, the CEO of Amazon. The mass production of iTouch has been put on the agenda. I also discussed with component manufacturers and estimated global sales. It is approximately between 8 million and 12 million units. After all, the iPod music player can already retire from the stage of history. With reference to the sales volume of iPod, this number is quite convincing.

Considering the high pricing, the sales group is mainly people in developed countries and regions. It is estimated to be somewhat helpful in promoting the sales of Apple MacBook notebooks and iMac all-in-one computers. The systems are similar, and the product design is absolutely nothing to say. In Ye Dongqing’s It is suggested that the number of retail stores directly operated by Apple will increase to about 400 by the end of the year.

To be honest, he currently hopes that Apple will burn more money, so that it can issue new shares as a matter of course and take the opportunity to increase its shareholding ratio. He believes that by joining forces with several other powerful small shareholder institutions, this goal should be achieved. But there must be a bright spot. Last year, there was too much investment in R\u0026D, and many retail shareholders have begun to complain about the lack of dividends. Only by making them believe that investing more money in R\u0026D will bring them huge benefits, can they implement a plan to allocate additional shares to raise funds. That way you won't encounter too much resistance.

Ye Dongqing didn't tell anyone about this matter. He seemed to have grown into a more qualified businessman and his vision became more long-term.

The reason why Apple is special in his eyes is because Ye Dongqing also hopes to seize this opportunity to change the world. Facebook and other companies are certainly good, but compared with a real smartphone, their influence is small after all. At this point, people can hold real Apple products, but they can only access Facebook products in the virtual digital world.

Like the impression of Steve Jobs, wherever he goes, he will face fans in a state of fanaticism. This kind of pinnacle in life is the achievement that Ye Dongqing dreams of.

I arrived at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel at around six o'clock in the evening. There were already many guests attending the seminar gathered in the lobby. The tickets were relatively expensive, but the organizers were not short of this little money and promised to donate all of it to several schools in New York State. The church is used to help homeless people and orphans.

This can be regarded as Ye Dongqing's indirect charity.

After seeing him, a group of people gathered around him and greeted him politely. They didn't care about etiquette and gathered around him in a swarm. They knew about little Edward's making money and also knew that even Ye Dongqing's bodyguard had become famous by buying stocks and followed Suo Suo. Compared with Ross's achievements, Ye Dongqing's experience is undoubtedly more suitable for this group of people.

A hedge fund founder with a Jewish face and well-known on Wall Street practically thrust his business card into Ye Dongqing's hand. After revealing his identity, he asked without scruple: Leo, what do you think about Nasdaq? Is the Internet industry still worth investing in? Is this another bubble?

The road was blocked, and Ye Dongqing had to stop and said angrily: Donate half a million dollars in my name and I'll tell you, the sky on Wall Street will not fall.

Originally, I wanted to mock this guy for not knowing the rules. No one would talk about these things everywhere, especially on such occasions.

Unexpectedly, the Jew took it seriously. He was stunned for a moment and then immediately took out his checkbook and said, I will write it now and donate it in your name!

It wasn't a matter of anger. I actually filled out the check. After writing it quickly, I didn't forget to add: We'll talk in private.

The people around were stunned, and suddenly there was sarcastic laughter. As expected of a Jew, he glared and shouted: You didn't spend any money, why should I let you listen?! If you want to know that you spend money to buy information, how can you bribe others? I don’t see you worrying about money! Who cheated me last time, I haven’t found anyone to settle the score yet!”

It seems to make sense.
