Chapter 122 New Headquarters
After lunch, Ye Dongqing discussed with the employees about expanding recruitment of a group of new employees and asked them to formulate a list of vacant positions. About 40 people were needed to recruit more than ten positions including financial analysis, risk control management, financial management, legal department, etc., and two cleaning staff who specialize in cleaning and company security personnel were needed.
The structure of the Tamsui fund company is not sound, and it will soon be moved into a new company. Such problems can be put on the agenda first. Some people suggested that he acquire and integrate several ready-made fund companies and start to form normal public and private equity departments to develop in PE and VC. The former is the abbreviation of "private equity investment" and the latter is the abbreviation of "venture investment".
They are different from investment banks such as Goldman Sachs, ****, and Merrill Lynch. They are subdivided into multiple major categories. Ye Dongqing's Danshui Fund Company is under such strict supervision, partly because some of his investments exceed the scope of fund investment in the traditional sense. Fund companies with average risks have been turned into high-risk PE and VC. The Securities and Exchange Commission will naturally pay more attention to it, and in fact, they are very responsible for considering the interests of investors.
Ye Dongqing listened seriously. As an "adventurer" in the eyes of his employees, he, a young boss, has already become a little majestic in the eyes of his employees. There is no way, the man who has more money is the one who has the most money.
Not only is he, the boss, who is excited, and he always has such a high leverage. These employees often follow their heartbeats. Several operators can't figure out how the small company of Tamsui Fund has quickly expanded to its current scale.
Recently, when promoting, I always like to add a sentence like "Our company has made more than 50 million US dollars in two months." Many investors have taken the bait just like this. The money on the Tamsui Fund's books means that the cashing ability is guaranteed. This is how many fund companies become famous because of their battle and have grown rapidly.
"Our company is better to change its name to Tamsui Investment Group or something. It sounds cooler and seems to have a larger business scope."
Sitting on the desk at this moment, Ye Dongqing told several employees with a cigar in his hand, and he continued to speak: "It is clearly not a traditional fund company, but it is limited by this name. In the past two years, countless fund companies have suffered losses and went bankrupt, which has caused investors to have a shadow. In addition, the media gloating has expanded the impact, which will make some people unwilling to believe us.
It wasn’t when we first started our business, we already had some strength, and we didn’t need to merge with other companies, so we were just spending money. To be honest, I don’t like such a little commission and management fee. Several financial products continued to be sold. Investors are happy, and I am also happy. They just want to compete with banks for business. When other companies are willing to believe us, spend tens of millions of dollars or even hundreds of millions of dollars to buy our financial products, this is the success.”
"Boss, I want to know when new people are recruited, will you select managers from us or from new people?"
"This depends on your ability, but I can guarantee that as long as there is no big mistake in the business, don't ignore your work all day long. From now on, there will be no names of you old employees in the layoff plan. If you do it well, your promotion opportunities will definitely be greater than those of new employees..."
It's mid-January.
Recently, Ye Dongqing has been tortured to death. He finally invested all his money into the crude oil futures market. He once again chose the wrong opportunity. It was not that he lost a lot of money. So far, he has made tens of millions of dollars, but the oil price is like a roller coaster. He is likely to make 20 to 30 million dollars on the first day, but he lost it the next day.
He holds a total of more than 870 million US dollars in his hand, and more than 30 million barrels of crude oil. It is enough for a small country to use it for a period of time, and only some funds are left to resist risks.
After hearing about this, Edward called Ye Dongqing. Even he couldn't help but sweat and said bluntly that he had never seen such a radical speculator.
Every day, he opens his eyes and looks at the oil price. He also needs to take a look before going to bed. Recently, Ye Dongqing is in a state of excitement for a long time. The new house has not been renovated yet, and Laura is still staying in the hotel. On the 16th, she has just completed more than fifty hours of community service, and she is still more than a hundred hours away from completing all the punishments.
American judges like to judge who will provide community services and regard it as a charity, and this punishment method is also a feature.
Ye Dongqing's luxury apartment in Puchuan Building has not been renovated. It is mainly to avoid affecting the neighbors. It can only start construction at the specified time. It cannot be done in the morning, noon, and evening, not even on Saturdays and Sundays, and the construction period has been greatly extended.
It's funny, because of the renovation, the current real estate businessman upstairs came to instruct the construction party not to start construction after 5:30 pm every day. Unfortunately, Ye Dongqing hasn't had the chance to meet the legendary businessman in person.
The office downstairs is relatively simple. The finishing work has been completed yesterday. The United States has strict requirements on decoration materials, and there is almost no concept of ventilation, drying, and formaldehyde removal. Generally, they move in shortly after the decoration is completed. The remaining harmful gases will not have much impact on people.
So, today Tamsui Fund Company officially invited a moving team and began to move to the new headquarters. Most of the employees who rented the house had already rented it, and most of the rest had already thought about how to solve the problem of travel on weekdays. According to the Chinese custom, firecrackers should be set off to celebrate this kind of thing, but they were worried that it would be misunderstood to be a large-scale gun battle on Wall Street. This idea only turned around in Ye Dongqing's head and was soon abandoned by him.
There weren't many things, just some computers, files, etc. needed to be taken away. From 8 o'clock to noon, I spent money to order takeout to invite the employees to have a working meal. I was almost all busy and I had to arrange a new headquarters.
The advertising company has already asked the advertising company to customize the signboard and it is still placed at the elevator entrance. The kind you can see as soon as you leave the elevator, the total area is about 2,700 square meters, and the semi-public office is separated from many glass walls. Ye Dongqing's own room is relatively large, nearly 100 square meters, occupying the best corner of the scenery.
It was originally the headquarters rented by a company. After he arrived at him, he only changed the layout slightly. The white walls, dark gray floors, and the tall buildings outside the window were imprinted into his eyes. The sun shone in in the afternoon, which was spacious and comfortable.
Not only Tamsui Fund, but also the employees of Golden Island Financial Management Company will occupy a piece of space here, using wooden boards to work from the middle, which is still empty now, especially when new employees are not recruited, they have rented such a large room with consideration in the future. According to the idea of real estate agents, it is enough to separate them from the middle.
New Year and new atmosphere.
At the beginning of 2003, the headquarters of Tamsui Fund suddenly improved a lot. It cannot be said that it is so luxurious. It is quite good. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be used for several years, or even more than ten years.
It is not a labor-intensive industry and does not use many employees. Ye Dongqing specially purchased two coffee machines, refrigerators, microwaves and other electrical appliances from Amazon Mall. They were all sent here today, and several data terminals produced by Bloomberg News were installed around.
There is a customized large screen that scrolls the details of the stock price of each company. It has not been completed yet and will not be delivered until next week.
The renovation and procurement of the company will cost more than two million US dollars of holly. Of course, it is considered as the expenses of the Tamsui Fund Company. It can save a tax at that time. It has helped people launder money and developed a habit. I care very much about these inconspicuous details. If I can save, I will never suffer any losses.
We were busy relocating today, and it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when the cleaning was over. Except for the employees who had not completed the task, others can check in early today.
As the supervisor, Mr. Carnike couldn't leave as long as he wanted. At this moment, he saw his little boss, and he lowered his voice and reminded: "You haven't zipped your pants and your hair has become wet. Did you just go home and take a shower?"
I don’t know that Laura is currently living on the upper floor of this Puchuan Building, otherwise Carnike wouldn’t have asked such a stupid question.
Ye Dongqing just came back from her and coughed dryly, saying, "Well, there is dust everywhere, and I have a party to attend at night, so I can't bring my gray clothes over there."
A great excuse, Carnike didn't think deeply, but instead smiled and said, "I will bring a few pots of green plants tomorrow. There are very good green baskets on the balcony of my home. Do you want it?
My wife likes to take care of these things. She has a friend who specializes in flower and plant business. She makes her back garden as beautiful as described in fairy tales. It is said that there are more than 800 plants growing in that garden in total."
"Hey, remember to ask me. If the price is not high, let her help me redecorate this office area and make some bonsai, flower stands, etc., and you will feel more comfortable when you see it for a long time."
They are all men, so there is nothing to worry about. Ye Dongqing calmly zipped it up. Laura just bit her, but now his shoulders are still hurt.
Maybe it was because Laura was almost driven crazy by the boring days in recent days and was a little abnormal. She planned to go to the movies together a few days ago, but the nearest cinema was three kilometers away. In the end, he took Zhao Liuli with him. Laura did not go. It was probably revenge.
She was still in a unclear relationship and continued to fool her. Fortunately, she was still young. Laura had not thought about the future. If she pursued it, maybe Ye Dongqing would immediately have a beautiful girlfriend, but it is not yet.
Carnike replied: "It is definitely at the normal price, which is cheaper than buying it yourself. She has many low-priced channels. As for the cost, I will ask you first."
"OK, you guys get off work after get off work. If you are interested, go see someone with me. I met in Xiangjiang and founded a company called Tencent. Next I plan to invest in it..."
Chapter completed!
