Chapter 218 Disturbed Mood
"But, does that mean that with my little investment, I can also reap a profit of 70 or 80 million?"
"Oh my god, your speed of making money is comparable to a money printing machine."
Yang Hao was so excited that he said, "When will I open the next fund? I will invest all my assets in you. With you, the God of Wealth, helping me manage my finances, I will not have to worry about anything in the future. I can just be free and easy."
"Don't worry, I will notify you when the next fund is raising funds." Su Yu smiled and said, "But it is easy to grow a small amount of funds of several hundred million. It is difficult to continue to expand the amount of tens of billions or hundreds of billions with the help of the A-share market. You have to lower your expectations appropriately."
"I know that the larger the size, the harder it is to grow." Yang Hao nodded and continued, "But no matter what, I am at ease when I give you the money to help manage it. By the way... I really picked up a treasure by accident. I have to thank Mr. Sun!"
"Mr. Sun?" Su Yu was a little confused.
"Of course it's him." Yang Hao said, "Do you remember the first time we met? If it weren't for Mr. Sun being so polite to you, I might not have been interested in you, and naturally I wouldn't have made friends with you, dug up your treasure, and let alone let you help me manage my finances."
"Of course, there is another reason that made me take the initiative to contact you, because your last name is Su."
Yang Hao said, "Maybe it's because of my mother. I am very sensitive to this last name, so the moment I got your information and saw your name, I became interested in you."
"Uh..." Su Yu smiled, "So, you really have to thank Mr. Sun."
The two continued to chat for a while, and then they had enough wine and food. At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, they dispersed.
After leaving the hotel, Su Yu left the car in the hotel parking lot and was about to take a taxi back, but suddenly saw a familiar figure at the door of the hotel.
"Wang Can..." Su Yu called out with a little surprise.
Wang Can heard the voice and turned around in a hurry. Seeing that it was Su Yu, he was also a little surprised and said with a smile: "Boss, you are here too, what a coincidence!"
"I'm having dinner here with a friend." Su Yu responded, looking at the taxi that just drove away, and asked, "That girl just now, is she your recent girlfriend? What's her background? She looks good in appearance and figure. How did you two know each other?"
"Not yet... I haven't chased her yet." Wang Can smiled awkwardly, "It's only when we have dinner that we can make an appointment. We met online. We discussed stocks together at the time, and then we felt that our market views and opinions were very similar. Later, we found that we were very close, and thought it would be good to communicate offline, so... that's it."
"This girl... is also in the same industry?" Su Yu frowned and asked.
"She said she works in the sales department of a securities company, and we... shouldn't be in the same industry, right?" Wang Can replied.
Su Yu was slightly alert, afraid that Wang Can was deceived, and continued to ask: "Which brokerage firm, which branch? Investment consultant? Broker? Market analysis researcher? Or proprietary trader?"
"It seems to be Huaxin Securities Yuhang Ronghe Road Branch." Wang Can replied, "As for the specific position, I didn't ask in detail."
"You applied for our company's trading seat, right?" Su Yu said.
Wang Can hesitated for a moment and nodded, but when he saw Su Yu's frown getting deeper and deeper, he hurriedly explained: "But I didn't tell you everything about our fund trading."
"You applied for our company's trading seat, so this girl agreed to go out to dinner with you, right?" Su Yu asked, and seeing Wang Can continue to nod, he roughly guessed the result in his heart, and warned, "Wang Can, I don't think this girl has any good intentions to approach you. I advise you to cut off contact with this girl while you are not deeply involved, so as not to hurt others and yourself in the end."
As he said, Su Yu looked at the restaurant sign behind him.
He continued, "You just started dating and she asked you to treat her to dinner at these places. After dinner, she didn't even think about staying with you for a while. She just found an excuse and left. What's her intention? Can't you see it?"
"I..." Wang Can was speechless for a moment. After a pause, he replied, "It shouldn't be that bad!"
Su Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Whether it's true or not, be careful when you meet someone in the same industry. From what I saw just now, this girl has good conditions. In the financial circle, it's easy for her to find someone with better conditions than you. Don't be silly and think that it's your own charm or that you've met true love. Maybe she's just fishing for you. Where is the fish."
"Isn't she a young girl who hasn't entered society yet..."
"Besides, if you don't have much brains, you can't survive in the financial circle."
"Of course, I definitely support and encourage you to have a girlfriend, but at least... you have to think more about whether the person you meet is the right one."
"To be honest, based on the background you provided and the process of your acquaintance, my first impression of this girl is not very good."
"Okay!" Hearing Su Yu's words, Wang Can scratched his head, "Then I'll learn more about it. If it's really like what you said... then I will definitely stay away from her."
In fact, he didn't think much about it, and just wanted to communicate with the girl frankly.
But in the past two weeks, he spent two or three thousand yuan just to treat the other party to dinner, which is equivalent to one-third of the monthly salary that Su Yu gave him, but the relationship did not progress at all. He didn't even hold the other party's hand, and the communication time was limited to the meal. He wanted to watch a movie together, but the other party kept finding reasons to refuse.
Now after Su Yu said this... he really had to think more in his heart!
Moreover, the most important point is that the other party did ask him about some things in the company and asked him if he really knew the trader of the Fortune Road seat.
"Okay." Su Yu said, "A real man, why worry about not having women? You work with peace of mind. In one or two years, I guarantee that you will have a car, a house, and savings in Yuhang. By then... you can find whatever conditions you want?"
"That's right!" Wang Can thought more and more that Su Yu made sense, "Damn... It seems that I have been taken advantage of, hum... woman! I will delete her contact information now."
As he said, he took out his mobile phone and immediately took action.
Su Yu looked at him, smiled, and asked, "Have you drunk? Help me drive the car back."
"No." Wang Can said, "It's mainly because a bottle of red wine is too expensive in this restaurant. I took a look and didn't dare to order it. Well... It's a good thing I didn't order it, otherwise I would have lost a lot."
As they said that, the two walked towards the parking lot.
Su Yu threw the car keys to Wang Can, then opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
"Boss, what do you think of the beautiful Li?" Wang Can couldn't help asking on the way Su Yu home, "Seeing you two go out together, it seems that you are interested in each other, but when you think about it carefully, you always feel that something is missing."
"What do you think?" Su Yu and Yang Hao drank a lot of wine and felt a little dizzy.
"Of course it's... a matter of in-depth development!" Wang Can said speechlessly, "You were just talking about me, how come you are also confused when it comes to your turn."
"I don't know either." Su Yu was silent for a while, and said, "We should be considered friends, the kind that understand each other. After all, we have known each other for so many years. Count it up... at least twenty years!"
"Twenty years?" Wang Can said in shock, "No... Have you two known each other since before kindergarten?"
"Uh..." Su Yu heard this and realized that he accidentally let the cat out of the bag. He reluctantly admitted, "Almost, we are basically from the same village."
"Before... I really couldn't tell." Wang Can muttered.
Then he paused for a while and brought the topic back: "Then boss... have you thought about developing a deeper relationship with the beautiful Li?"
"Isn't it good now?" Su Yu said, "Essentially, she and I are of the same kind. We are better as comrades than as lovers. This question... how should I put it? Forget it. I can't explain it to you clearly. Maybe I haven't thought it through myself."
Wang Can was speechless when he heard this.
But Su Yu is not only his best friend, but also his boss.
So, he can't say many stupid ideas, and he won't make trouble like before.
"By the way, Boss..." After a pause, Wang Can said, "Mo Xiaoyan sent me a message last night. She said she wanted to join our company. She is now working as a fund sales account manager at a well-known public fund in Shanghai. Isn't our company very short of people? Since she wants to come, why not..."
"Mo Xiaoyan..."
Su Yu murmured the name, and a girl's figure flashed through his mind: "I remember that her eyes were on the top of her head before. She didn't look down on any of our classmates. Why is she starting to use your personal connections now? Oh, that's right... Society is a cruel primeval forest. If you have high aspirations and don't have that kind of life, you will naturally be thrown into the mud. Whether you like it or not, you have to roll in the mud first."
"Isn't it!" Wang Can said "Before graduation, I thought I could punch Buffett and kick Soros, but in the end... I couldn't even get into the sales department of a large first-class securities firm, let alone those well-known asset management groups and famous investment banks."
"Okay!" Su Yu said, "Let her submit her resume first and go through Director Qin's general screening."
"If she is still as ambitious as before and thinks the world revolves around her, then she can go wherever she wants. If she is qualified and knows how to adapt, she can also let Manager Yu take her. After all, they are classmates. Under the condition of ensuring fairness, at least a little bit of affection should be given."
"Okay!" Wang Can said, "I'll tell her when I go back."
"You won't... still miss her now, right?" Su Yu said.
"How can that be possible?" Wang Can said, "Even if I miss her, she still doesn't think highly of me, right? Didn't you say... It's important for people to know themselves. I didn't know how capable I am before, but now I still don't know. I used to think that my understanding of the financial market was not much different from yours, but now I know that it's just the light of a candle compared to the sun. In front of you, I'm like a kindergarten student."
"Not kindergarten." Su Yu smiled, "Primary school student should be about the same."
"Can you give me some face and say a high school student?" Wang Can replied jokingly.
"Okay, high school student." Su Yu responded with a smile, and then said, "Besides Mo Xiaoyan, have other classmates come to you?"
"Yes, quite a few." Wang Can said, "Even Huang Luolin asked me with a flattering face, but I was too lazy to reply to him. This guy... used to confront me tit for tat, and now I can finally suppress his arrogance, I feel happy in my heart, and his family is well-off, so there is no need for him to run to our company in a humble manner. I think... he probably wants to admit his weakness and find a way to get close to you, hoping that you can take him to stock trading."
"Then you are really..."
Su Yu sighed: "Okay, no matter how many people come to you, let them go through the company's formal recruitment channel, treat them equally, and recruit the best."
"Okay!" Wang Can nodded.
While the two were talking, the car had arrived at the underground parking lot of the community where Su Yu lived.
Wang Can parked the car and returned the car keys to Su Yu. After Su Yu entered the elevator, he left alone and returned to the rental house not far from where Su Yu lived.
After Su Yu returned home, he saw a fragrant smell in the kitchen, and Li Meng was busy in the kitchen.
He couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Are you cooking soup? It's past dinner time, and you haven't eaten yet? If I had known earlier, you should have sent a message and asked me to pack a takeaway for you downstairs."
"I've eaten." Li Meng said, "I'm trying new dishes."
As she said that, she smelled the strong smell of alcohol on Su Yu and couldn't help asking: "Are you okay? Oh, wait... I'll squeeze you a glass of apple juice, which should help you sober up faster."
"Apple juice?" Su Yu saw her turn around and busy, "Is it really effective?"
"According to chemical principles, it's like this." Li Meng replied while busying herself, "Didn't you learn it before? Fructose can promote the decomposition of alcohol."
"I really don't know." Su Yu smiled.
Seeing Li Meng suddenly show a different side from the impression in his mind, Su Yu's heart was suddenly touched.
"Who did you drink with at noon?" Li Meng put the split apple into the juicer. "You said last night that you would send Yuling to school today. I thought you should be with her at noon."
"With Yang Hao." Su Yu said, "I saw that he was very worried, so I drank a few more glasses with him."
"Breaking up with his father, and knowing that his father had betrayed his mother before his death, his image collapsed and his worldview was shattered. It was indeed... difficult." While speaking, Li Meng handed a large glass of squeezed apple juice to Su Yu. "I always thought that rich people would not have any troubles. Now I find that no matter which class, no matter whether they are poor or rich, there are some difficult-to-solve contradictions and troubles."
"This is natural." Su Yu said, "The emperor's family also has contradictions and troubles."
"But... is this really useful?" Su Yu looked at the large glass of apple juice in his hand.
Li Meng smiled and said, "You'll know if you give it a try. You look like this... Are you afraid that I'll poison you in there?"
"That's not the case." Su Yu said with a smile, "If you want to seize power, you have to learn all my trading skills."
"You make it sound like you're the best in the world." Li Meng teased.
Su Yu took a big sip of juice and said, "For now, what you said is true."
"Inflation is a taboo in trading." Li Meng put the empty cup in the kitchen and continued, "Didn't you say that too? You have to keep a cautious mindset at all times so that you can have the last laugh and take the profit in the trading market."
"Well, it seems that you've learned well." Su Yu smiled and said, "You can become a master."
"Compared to you, I'm still far behind." Li Meng said, "Okay, go to sleep for a while. You'll feel better when you wake up."
"Well!" Su Yu responded and walked into his room.
Then, he fell into a daze and woke up at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
The room was very quiet. The sun had not yet set. He opened the curtains, and the soft sunlight in the golden autumn shone through the window glass on his face, which was very gentle, like the caress of a lover.
Su Yu opened the door and walked out.
But he saw Li Meng curled up barefoot on the carpet paved with floor tiles in front of the French window on the balcony outside the living room, leaning against the small coffee table, quietly flipping through the thick investment masterpiece "Securities Analysis". On the coffee table, the teacup decorated with a few blooming plum blossoms was faintly steaming. Outside the coffee table, the exquisite jade feet, snow-white slender legs, and graceful figure were all exposed under the extremely slim knee-length white skirt.
"Awake? Do you feel better?" Noticing Su Yu, Li Meng smiled and looked up.
At that moment, the sunlight outside the window was raging, her hair swept back as she raised her head, and the gentle light shone on her face. Her delicate features seemed to be directly imprinted in Su Yu's heart. Wherever he looked, he saw the gentle smile in her eyes.
"Well, I feel much better." Su Yu smiled and responded.
"I said apple juice is effective." Li Meng also smiled, put down the "Securities Analysis" in her hand, stood up, "I'll make you a cup of tea."
"You sit down, I can do it myself." Su Yu hurriedly stopped her.
Then he made himself a cup, and sat down in front of the French window on the balcony, looking at the gentle sunlight outside, and the financial city with tall buildings in the distance, and said: "Li Meng, what is your ideal?"
"For the time being... it should be making money!" Li Meng followed his gaze and looked at the financial city in the distance, "Change yourself, change the situation at home, and then take root in this industry and this city."
"Besides making money?" Su Yu continued to ask.
"If you are not short of money, you have to realize your life value." Li Meng said, "Like Graham, practice your investment philosophy, find a wealth road suitable for ordinary people, not geniuses, or contribute a little of your own strength to the world and make it better."
"Well, it feels like you have always been this kind of person." Su Yu said, "Never admit defeat."
"What about you?" Li Meng tilted her head and looked into his eyes.
"Same as you." Su Yu said, "We are essentially the same people!"
