Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 339 Yuan Xudong and Luo Yan work the night shift together
At Pulin Capital, Jiang Xiaoguo was sitting behind the front desk, sorting out the resumes of applicants for the position of assistant to the company's partners. When she heard the ding of the elevator door opening, she stretched her neck and looked over. Seeing that it was the company's president Zhou Xun, she quickly stood up from her chair, walked from behind the front desk to the front, handed all the resumes in her hand to Zhou Xun and said with a smile:
"Mr. Zhou, all the people for the interview are here. Here are the resumes you requested."
After taking the resume and taking a quick look at it, Zhou Xun couldn't help but look at Jiang Xiaoguo when he saw that many places on the resume were marked with red pen. He pointed at the annotations on the resume and frowned slightly.
"What's this?"
"As an excellent employee, you need to be active. In order to reduce your workload, I have reviewed your resume for you."
Hearing Zhou Xun asking about the key point, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened his eyes and smiled:
"These people are actually not as good as you think, for example, the one at the top..."
Jiang Xiaoguo pointed to the top resume and gave a specific example:
"There is a two-year work experience gap. You can ask him the reason. He also wrote that the reason for leaving his last company was personal. You can dig deeper into that."
"Is there life in your eyes?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was speaking so clearly and smiling reservedly, Zhou Xun smiled, then suddenly said coldly with a stern face:
"Is this your job? You are the receptionist now. Have you ordered my cake?"
"Well……"
Jiang Xiaoguo didn't expect Zhou Xun to say this about him. He was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion:
"What kind of cake?"
"Jiang Xiaoguo, you really can't do your job well, but you like to meddle in other people's business. I want to eat cheesecake, go and order it right now!"
"Okay, Mr. Zhou!"
After sending away Jiang Xiaoguo, who liked to meddle in other people's business, Zhou Xun took the resume she had annotated with the key points to the conference room and began to interview dozens of job seekers. The first one in line was the middle-aged man who had two years of work experience and had written personal reasons for leaving his previous company. Looking at the plain-looking and even a little wretched middle-aged man, Zhou Xun couldn't help coughing, then looked at the resume in his hand and asked:
"I see there are two years of blank experience on your resume. Why is that?"
Seeing that the middle-aged man just smiled and didn't say anything, Zhou Xun couldn't help but frowned and said:
"The reason you left your last job was personal. Can you tell me more about that?"
Without answering Zhou Xun's question, the middle-aged man picked up a box of tea from under his feet and handed it to Zhou Xun, saying with a smile:
"tea!"
"You're welcome, I don't drink tea!"
Thinking that the middle-aged man wanted to bribe him to please him, Zhou Xun refused directly. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man changed the subject and said with some hints:
"It's not for you. Mr. Su left it in my car. Can you give it to him for me?"
"Do you know Su Hang?"
"no!"
Looking at Zhou Xun, the middle-aged man said with a hint of pride:
"I'm talking about Mr. Su. We are old friends. We often drink tea and play mahjong together. I have already greeted Mr. Su when I came to Pulin Capital to apply for a job. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand. Of course I understand!"
Looking at the middle-aged man who had become even more obscene and disgusting, Zhou Xun put away his resume and said with a smile:
"How about this, you go back and wait for notification, and Su Hang and I will discuss it, okay?"
"Okay, I'll go back first. Let me know as soon as possible!"
"Okay, sure!"
After watching the middle-aged man leave the meeting room, Zhou Xun's face couldn't help but darken. Although Mr. Su was the largest shareholder of Pulin Capital, he and Zhou Xun were not bad either. The two of them worked together because of Su Hang.
It was agreed at the beginning that Mr. Su was only responsible for investment, while specific business activities would be decided by Su Hang and his Zhou Xun. Now that Pulin Capital has grown bigger, it wants to send more people into the company, some old-fashioned people who seem to be out of touch with the times.
It seems to be out of tune with the young and vibrant corporate image of Pulin Capital. However, it does seem to be Mr. Su's style of employing people. The family business model of the older generation is just relatively open-minded.
Capable outsiders are placed in the forefront, and then the company's own people are arranged to supervise in important positions. It would be fine to arrange a capable person like Su Hang, but the middle-aged man now is a complete villain. Zhou Xun would never agree to let such a person come into the company, thus spoiling the positive atmosphere of the entire company.
"Next one, Ouyang Xiaoxiao!"
…
"Okay, if there is a result, the HR will call you within two days, so you can go back first!"
"OK!"
…
"Next one, Jiang Xiaoguo!"
Jiang Xiaoguo was the last one to enter the conference room. She sat in front of Zhou Xun and smiled reservedly:
"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am the last interviewee today, Jiang Xiaoguo!"
He raised the resume in his hand. Compared with other resumes, this one was clean and tidy, without any red pen markings. Zhou Xun suppressed his temper and smiled reluctantly:
“Who asked you to submit your resume?”
"You didn't say you don't allow internal competition!"
Looking at Zhou Xun who was forcing a smile, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened his eyes and said playfully, looking unusually clever:
"Whether it's the company's culture or your investment style, I, Jiang Xiaoguo, am the best candidate for this position!"
"Yeah?"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo, who was so shameless in order to get a promotion and a raise, Zhou Xun glanced at her resume and said with a smile:
"Education: undergraduate, that means you are in high school?"
"ah?"
"Work experience, in the financial field, not in the venture capital industry. With your level, how did you get into Puling Capital?"
"I……"
"Go talk to the HR department and ask them to revise the job posting and make sure to specify that you have a lot of experience and that the age limit can be relaxed."
"Mr. Zhou, don't young people always go from being inexperienced to being experienced? Why don't you give it some more thought?"
"Don't think about it. By the way, go downstairs and pick up the express for me, and then you can go home from get off work."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou!"
…
The sun was setting. After helping Zhou Xun pick up the express delivery, Jiang Xiaoguo returned to the dormitory after get off work. Duan Jiabao, Luo Yan, and Liang Shuang were all in the dormitory.
Seeing Luo Yan squatting on a chair, holding an English dictionary in her hand and reading it, mumbling something, Jiang Xiaoguo put down his backpack, glanced at her and smiled:
"Shitou, what are you doing?"
"I'm memorizing words and grammar to prepare for the CET-6 exam!"
"Oh, yes, I have to take the Level 6 exam soon!"
At this point, Jiang Xiaoguo glanced at Liang Shuang's bed. Seeing that she was still sleeping on the bed, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but whispered:
"Isn't Liang Shuang also going to take the Level 6 exam? She's not reviewing, so why is she sleeping now?"
"I don't care. Haven't you seen that a video of hers on Weibo has hundreds of thousands of views in a few minutes? Does she still need to take the Level 6 exam?"
"She doesn't have any either, only three of her videos have had over 100,000 views."
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan talking about Liang Shuang, Duan Jiabao couldn't help but interrupt.
"Her fans have also increased by 20,000."
Jiang Xiaoguo said.
"It has only recently increased by 18,000, not as much as 20,000."
Duan Jiabao added.
"Dabao, how do you know so clearly?"
"Well……"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo suddenly asking him this, Duan Jiabao quickly picked up his phone and tried to change the subject :
"I forgot to sign in to my four-character super topic. This can't be interrupted. I'll chat with you later!"
“Oh~~”
Seeing Duan Jiabao frantically swiping his phone, Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan didn't think there was anything strange about it. Or maybe Duan Jiabao had been acting this way for a while, and they were used to it. Jiang Xiaoguo glanced at Duan Jiabao, then sat on the chair and smiled at Liang Shuang who was still sleeping soundly:
"I really envy Liang Shuang, who can earn a fortune just by taking photos and videos. I am nothing like him, who has to screen emails and work as a receptionist, and I don't even get enough sleep!"
"She's not that easy!"
Duan Jiabao felt that Liang Shuang's life was actually quite hard, and being the girlfriend of an old man (Liang Shuang said so herself), she was quite pitiful. Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan still misunderstood her, Duan Jiabao couldn't help but retort.
As soon as he said this, seeing Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan looking at him, Duan Jiabao changed the subject and said with a wry smile:
"Oh, I mean, Xiaoguo, you usually sleep very soundly, really!"
"Dabao, why do you keep speaking for Liang Shuang recently? Are you hiding something from us?"
Looking at the strange Duan Jiabao, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but ask.
"No, I didn't speak for Liang Shuang!"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan were looking at him with suspicion, Duan Jiabao quickly drew a line between himself and Liang Shuang and said:
"Liang Shuang is such a disgusting person. She likes to show off and bully me. How could I possibly speak for her? Absolutely not!"
"real?"
"real!"
"Okay then!"
Looking at Duan Jiabao's sincere face, she didn't seem to be lying. Although she still felt a little strange, Jiang Xiaoguo still chose to believe Duan Jiabao. She smiled and joked:
"Dabao, if I find out that you lied to me, you're dead, understand?"
"Know!"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan, Duan Jiabao wanted to cry but had no tears. She felt like a child herding sheep. She forced a smile and said:
"I feel like I'm going to die now!"
"What did you say?"
"No, nothing, hahaha!"
After taking a look at Duan Jiabao's fake smile, Luo Yan stood up from her chair, carrying her canvas schoolbag and preparing to go to Silverstone Investment for the night shift.
"Xiaoguo, Dabao, Daddy is going to work. Bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
…
Leaving the dormitory and walking out of the girls' dormitory, Luo Yan walked slowly along the cement road under the girls' dormitory, thinking about her mother and Zhao Changming. At this moment, a white Maserati stopped in front of her, and the window was lowered. Yuan Xudong looked at Luo Yan, who looked a little confused, and smiled:
"Get in the car, I'll take you to the company!"
"Oh well!"
After walking around to the other side of the car and getting in the passenger seat and fastening her seat belt, Luo Yan looked at Yuan Xudong and said with a smile:
"Okay, thank you!"
"No, it's on the way anyway!"
As Yuan Xudong drove to the company, he glanced at Luo Yan and said with a smile:
"By the way, are you used to your work recently? Do you feel uncomfortable with the night shift? It must be hard to have such a reversed day and night cycle?"
"No!"
Shaking her head slightly, Luo Yan looked at Yuan Xudong and said with a smile:
"It's pretty good. I'm used to it. I just need to study the data on the computer every day. It's like playing a numbers game. I don't have to talk to anyone. It's just that my working hours are a bit different from Xiaoguo's!"
"I see. Let's wait until next month!"
"What?"
"How about I wait until next month and transfer you to the day shift?"
Looking at Luo Yan, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"I'm on the day shift. If we come across any good trading opportunities, we can share them with each other!"
"Okay, thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
Smiling, Luo Yan looked at Yuan Xudong curiously:
"I heard that above the ordinary traders, the company has project teams, the kind that manipulate the stock market over the long term, absorbing funds at low prices for a few months, and then suddenly pushing the price up to a high level. They can make a lot of money in one go. Isn't this manipulating the stock price?"
"You can say it is, and you can say it is not!"
While driving, Yuan Xudong looked at Luo Yan and explained:
"It is essentially a form of stock price manipulation. If a person uses the advantage of a large amount of capital to manipulate the stock price in a short period of time to make a profit, as you said, even if he does not make a profit but loses money, it is still stock price manipulation, which is a criminal act. However, if the target is an investment company, it is a normal investment behavior, because investment companies have many accounts and many people work together to push up the stock price. It is not stock price manipulation, do you understand?"
"I understand a little bit. Super retail investors can't use this method, but investment companies can?"
"That's about right. There are a lot of rules and regulations involved. Sometimes it's hard to tell whether something is right or wrong. You don't have to worry about that. Just make money and get the commission!"
"Okay, got it!"
Nodding, Luo Yan looked at Yuan Xudong and said with a smile:
"By the way, aren't you working the day shift? What are you doing at the company now?"
"There was a small problem with the simulation trading. I couldn't sell the stocks I bought. I went to the scene to see what was going on."
“Oh, I see!”
…
There was no conversation along the way. They arrived downstairs of Silverstone Investment Company and parked the car. Yuan Xudong and Luo Yan walked into the office building where Silverstone Investment was located together, took the elevator into Silverstone Investment Company, and then separated. Yuan Xudong went to the Information Technology Department and Luo Yan went to the US Stock Trading Department.
"Luo Yan, you're here!"
"Well, how's the market today?"
"It's OK, but there's something wrong with the simulation, so I can't trade for the time being."
“Oh, I see!”
Nodding and putting down the canvas bag, Luo Yan sat down at her trading desk, turned on the computer, entered her account password, and logged into the company's internal stock trading account. She was also doing a simulated trading, so she couldn't trade for the time being. She could only look at the U.S. stock market on the computer screen and learn about the market. At this moment, a female student next to her came up to Luo Yan and said with a smile:
"Xiao Yanyan, what is your relationship with Mr. Yuan?"
"He's my roommate's boyfriend, what are you thinking?"
I glared at the female student sitting next to me. I knew that these fujoshis liked to talk about topics like a domineering president falling in love with me. Yuan Xudong could barely be considered a president-like figure. In the eyes of these young girls who had just entered society, a young and promising man like Yuan Xudong was an elite in their eyes.
By marrying him, you can achieve rapid promotion in your social class and save yourself decades or even a lifetime of hard work. The more beautiful the girl is, the more she is interested in such a man, or is interested in him.
In a word, girls like men who can make money, especially men who can make a lot of money. Other factors such as appearance, height, temperament, and even age can be relaxed a little, but the opposite is true for rich men.
The degree of relaxation is proportional to the degree of wealth, and Yuan Xudong is very famous in Silverstone Investment. He is young, handsome, and has a gentle temperament. Most importantly, he once made hundreds of millions of wealth and achieved financial freedom at a young age.
In the days that followed, his daily profits would range from a few thousand to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. The speed at which he made money from money was much faster than the speed at which the working class accumulated wealth. If nothing unexpected happened, he would only become richer and richer, and his life would become more and more comfortable.
