Wall Street Legend - Chapter 396
Chapter 396 Out of place
Speaking of the tolerance of the dean of Harvard Business School, we must talk about the purpose of learning.
People enter a school mainly to learn various skills that will enable them to gain a foothold in society in the future. Obviously, Ye Dongqing has already qualified.
He is currently the third richest man in the world. He has recruited a total of more than 500 outstanding graduates from Harvard to work for him for two consecutive years. His achievements are no worse than that of the old Rockefeller back then, or the current Harvard dropout Bill Gates. How much, the achievements are obvious to all, definitely one of the most outstanding graduates of Harvard University.
Of course, this is also related to Ye Dongqing’s generous donation. Last year, Ye Dongqing donated a parking lot to Harvard University, plus a check for 30 million US dollars, without specifying the specific purpose.
For a group of teachers and students, the role of the parking lot is much stronger than that of the library or experimental equipment. They can use it if they have a car. Parking was a troublesome thing before.
The process that should be followed still needs to be followed, but the conditions are much more relaxed. Ye Dongqing was immediately happy when he heard it, obviously meaning that he would be fine even if he asked the gunman for help.
This is normal. There is no principal whose head is caught by the door, so he can’t graduate. Just deal with it casually, and it’s fine on the surface.
replied: “Okay sir, I will fix it in two or three days, I don’t know when the graduation ceremony is?”
Upon hearing this, Old Principal Smith said in a surprised tone: “On the 27th of this month, did no one contact you to be the outstanding student representative at this graduation ceremony? I even thought you had prepared a speech .”
“…Is it like this, I don’t know the specific situation, maybe something is wrong, I haven’t received any notification.”
“Please wait a moment, Leo, I’ll go ask the principal.”
Dean Smith hung up the phone after finishing speaking, and called again a few minutes later, telling that the two sides had a quarrel, the principal thought the business school had notified, and the business school thought the principal had notified, and there was no coordination.
Fortunately, the problem was discovered in advance, and there was still time to prepare the speech. Ye Dongqing is definitely the “strongest graduate” among the famous schools this year, and he is unrivaled in Harvard. Going to the graduation ceremony to speak on behalf of the graduates is a This kind of honor, he didn’t mean to shirk, and he promised it wholeheartedly.
Look at the Danshui Investment Group and the hedge fund. There are as many top students in the finance department as dogs, and there are also many capable people in the public relations department.
Instead of wasting his own brain cells and handing over the papers and speeches to the secretariat, Ye Dongqing can actually write a qualified paper himself, and the gold content is quite high. He can directly Studying yourself or your own company, who is qualified to say that the writing is not good?
If there is, then stand up and compare your worth to see who is more successful.
Although the value of a person cannot be measured by money alone, for a business school student, whether he can make money is indeed an important factor in measuring his achievements. Most of them will become managers or one of the bosses of start-up companies. class role.
In contrast, Yale seems to be more likely to play the role of a macroeconomic think tank, which is determined by the campus atmosphere. Well-known schools such as Harvard Business School and Wharton Business School have more wealthy second generations. For example, the most representative Edward Johnson Jr. and Richard Rockefeller, both of whom were from Harvard Business School, were focused on making money, and were more suitable for egoists.
The “dirty work” of ghost writing can only be done by trustworthy people. Ye Dongqing has a suitable candidate under his command—Assistant William, a super academic who has obtained a double doctorate in business administration and economics. It was agreed that starting from next month, his salary would be increased by another 1,500 US dollars, which was regarded as a hush money.
This capable assistant has been with Ye Dongqing for a long time, and is almost finalized as one of the future supervisors. He may be released to take charge of a company in the past two years. His interests are tied to Ye Dongqing, so he probably won’t lose his head Talk nonsense.
Even if it is leaked, it will not have much impact, but it is a scandal after all, and it is easy to make a big splash, so it is better to be careful.
Students from poor families rely on talent and hard work, or rely on racial affirmative action, while children from rich families only need to spend money. This has almost become an unspoken rule in American colleges and universities, and it is not as fair as people imagine…
For the next three days, Ye Dongqing was very busy.
Mainly because he is busy with investment. Freshwater Fund has just received a loan of 3 billion US dollars, plus the dividends brought by investing in stocks, part of the liquidity on the book, and about 1.4 billion US dollars returned from liquidation. He needs In the near future, the money was spent, and the dividends were handled by the way.
Those individuals and institutions that originally invested in Tamsui Investment Group to purchase wealth management products have invested assets for one year after another. Some people tried to get back dividends and part of the principal, and put their eggs in different baskets. Some people came to understand However, he immediately expressed his willingness to invest in the interest and continue to hold this part of the securities assets.
Most of them were big customers, such as the chairman of the Rolex Foundation and a senior vice president of the Blackstone Group. Ye Dongqing personally showed up to drink tea with these people in the office and talked about the current development situation.
Now he can get funds from the bank at a lower interest rate, so in fact, he doesn’t need to continue to win over these investors, but he doesn’t have to offend them. If someone wants to withdraw their funds, they can leave with the money. It doesn’t matter, because Dividends lead to an increase in client assets, and in fact, a lot more debt.
It doesn’t matter. When he has enough funds in the future, he can forcefully liquidate the contract after the contract expires, and return the money to the investors with interest. …Finally dragged down Danshui Investment Group, and Ye Dongqing took the initiative in this matter.
Negotiating successively with Wall Street brokerages that hold Samsung Electronics, Japan Sharp Corporation, Sony Electronics and other companies, Ye Dongqing is trying to hold shares of a group of component suppliers in the upstream of the mobile smart product industry chain at a lower price , Nvidia and Qualcomm in the United States did not let go. Facts have proved that spending money is really easier than making money. The negotiations went smoothly, and more than 5 billion US dollars were invested in just two days.
Marlowe’s hierarchy of needs theory tells people that human needs are divided into physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, respect needs and self-realization from bottom to top. Ye Dongqing is currently in the stage of “self-realization”. I envy people like Jobs, Bezos, and Elon Musk, because they all have achievable goals, such as Elon Musk, this guy wants to die on Mars, and he also hopes to replace fuel vehicles with electric vehicles Cars, with dreams, life will probably not be too boring.
Ye Dongqing often feels that it is too easy for him to get money, so he is out of tune with this group of people. The business layout is almost completed, and he no longer knows what to pursue next…
