Chapter 83 Invitation

  Actually, Zhong Shi is most concerned about the 500 million rumors.

  After carefully analyzing the causes and consequences of this news, Zhong Shi came to a conclusion that this news should have been spread by insiders.

   This is actually very simple, and it can be inferred from the fact that this news first began to circulate in the financial circle. First in the financial circle, then in the media, and then people from all walks of life knew about it.

   It was a blessing in disguise. Perhaps the Aihua News Agency came to Liao Chengde because he was on the verge of bankruptcy, because this kind of person is eager to make a comeback, and he is likely to be desperate, so he can be better controlled.

Zhongshi’s funds have always been operated by Alpari Far East’s brokerage firm. This is a British financial company. Thanks to the growing market in Hong Kong in recent years, it has successively purchased funds from exchanges around the world. trading seats.

In his previous life, Zhong Shi’s funds were operated through his own brokerage channel, so he didn’t know much about the brokerage system. Before making the bet with Andrew, he thought that buying a brokerage house was a very common thing, but after he studied it carefully After reading it, I realized that things were far from as simple as imagined.

  Take the Hong Kong market as an example, as long as the brokers of the Hong Kong Futures Exchange that operate futures are market makers.

Market makers, also known as market makers, refer to some independent securities dealers in the financial market, who undertake the buying and selling of a certain security for investors. Buyers and sellers do not need to wait for the counterparty to appear, as long as they A market maker can come forward to assume the counterparty of the transaction and the transaction can be concluded.

In other words, the market maker is the third trader sandwiched between the buyer and the seller. When the seller sells the securities in his hand to the broker, the market maker's broker can choose to hold the securities for a period of time according to the value of the securities. The best time is to immediately find the buyer to match, and then earn the difference from it. Ordinary brokers only play a matching role and earn commissions from it.

  Hong Kong Futures Exchange has certain preferential policies for the brokers of these market makers, which generally reduce 80% of the handling fee and rent.

If you want to become a market maker, you must have a lot of self-owned funds and strong research capabilities. Generally, this role is mostly large investment banks. These institutions are not short of money and talents, so they can act as good investors in the rapidly changing market. such a role.

  Jong-shi may not be short of money, but he is short of talents. Basically, he alone makes decisions, and everyone else is a supporting role. In this case, a broker who wants to acquire a market maker is possible, but difficult.

   Another important point is that Zhong Shi has not yet reached the age of a legal person. Without this status, many things are not easy to handle.

   After thinking about it, Zhong Shi finally gave up the idea of ​​acquiring a broker.

  However, Zhong Shi did not dare to be careless about the confidentiality of the brokerage channel. He has already noticed that the Alfred Brokerage Company may no longer be safe.

  After a thorough analysis, both Zhong Shi and Liao Chengde believed that the source of the rumors was in the Avery Company. As for who it was, they couldn't figure it out.

  But what is certain is that it will definitely not be Andrew.

  A very simple reason, if Andrew spread the news, the amount would definitely not be as small as 500 million Hong Kong dollars. Andrew knew the details of their transactions clearly, and he was the second core figure in their small team after Liao Chengde, and even surpassed Liao Chengde in some places.

Except for Andrew, the only other person who knows the inside story of liking this account is the general manager of the Far East region, but he is also impossible, because this will anger Zhongshi, and if they withdraw the funds, the company will lose a large commission . This is obviously an unpleasant thing for his future, and I believe that no one with normal intelligence will do it.

  The only possibility is that a small employee heard Zhong Shi and Liao Chengde's inadvertent chat about Liao Xiaohua, and thought that Liao Chengde made so much money without knowing it, and that's why the rumors appeared.

  Zhong Shi and Liao Chengde's guess was almost the same as the real situation, but what they didn't expect was that Liao Xiaohua had some credit for this incident.

   This matter has to start with Liao Xiaohua's flirting. When he appeared in the Alfred agency, he saw a beautiful and beautiful front desk lady. Later, he was severely reprimanded by Liao Chengde, and there was nothing more to say.

But the girl who was provoked by Liao Xiaohua took her heart. This girl named Liang Wanru originally graduated from a famous university in Hong Kong. Giving Liao Xiaohua a cold face is also out of the psychology of wanting to welcome or reject, after all, she is studying psychology.

It's a pity that her efforts were in the wrong place. Liao Xiaohua was intimidated by her father's prestige and never dared to tease her again. This made Liang Wanru very disappointed. Her heart sank, and she felt resentful because of it.

  Women's minds are very strange. "If you are close, you will not be inferior, and if you are far away, you will cause resentment" is the most appropriate description. Liang Wanru knew that Liao Xiaohua was a **** at all, often appearing on the cover of gossip magazines, flirting with female celebrities, originally this kind of person was definitely not a good match, but she was confident that she had the ability to control Liao Xiaohua, so she didn't let it go on heart.

  Liang Wanru's dream of becoming a wealthy family lasted for more than two years, and it had faded a lot, but Liao Chengde's family encountered a kidnapping case at the right time, which made Liang Wanru's bone in her throat start to ache again.

Not long ago, she occasionally heard Zhong Shi and Liao Chengde chatting, and the word "500 million" was faintly revealed in the words, and the expressions of the two were quite relaxed when chatting, not like they were in debt, so she took it for granted that Liao Chengde earned 500 million Hong Kong dollars in the market.

   Out of revenge, she privately leaked the news to people in the circle. Immediately, the news spread rapidly as if it had grown wings, and finally appeared in financial newspapers, causing a moderate disturbance.

  When the news of Liao Chengde's refutation of the rumors came out, Liang Wanru was still afraid for a long time. She never imagined that it was her favorite son who lost 500 million Hong Kong dollars in a gamble, not as she imagined. In addition to being afraid, she was also very grateful. Fortunately, she did not succeed at the beginning, otherwise she would definitely become a big joke now.

  Naturally, her little thought about Liao Xiaohua disappeared, so that when she met Liao Xiaohua in the brokerage firm, she always looked cold. Because of this, Liao Xiaohua wondered for a long time, what happened to the enthusiastic receptionist in the past.

  These are things for later.

After Zhong Shi realized that there was a problem with the brokerage firm, he planned to switch to another brokerage firm. However, Andrew was still in Alfred, and this is where he made his fortune. Besides, there was still an unfulfilled bet between them. In this case, it is even more difficult for him to speak.

  Zhong Shi decided to have a good talk with Andrew.

   "Andrew, what are your plans for the future?" In the VIP room of the Far East Financial Building Alfred Company, Zhong Shi looked at the hot coffee in front of him and asked a little casually.

The weather is already a bit hot now, and it is most suitable to drink cooler coffee in this season, but Zhong Shi likes drinks with a higher temperature. The receptionist of Avery is very careful, and he clearly remembers the taste of Zhong Shi and others , Even the coffee beans are specially bought.

   "Uh... Zhong Sheng, what do you mean?"

  Andrew was taken aback for a moment. He has been in Hong Kong for so long, and he is still not used to the speaking habits of Chinese-speaking people. He hated this kind of way of speaking that hides the real purpose deeply and goes around here and there at first, but now he has a lot of understanding.

  Zhong Shi started chatting, and even asked about his career plan. He seemed concerned, but in fact Andrew knew that Zhong Shi must have something else to say, so he asked back.

   "Oh! It's nothing, I just want to ask you, do you plan to live like this in a brokerage firm for the rest of your life?"

  Zhong Shi didn't expect that Andrew's reaction was so fast, and he caught the point of his speech at once. He didn't hide anything at all, and directly expressed his intentions.

   "Then Zhong Sheng, what do you mean?"

  Andre had vaguely guessed something, and he couldn't help getting a little excited, but before he got a formal promise, he still wasn't sure whether Zhong Shi meant what he thought.

The brokerage company has a complete promotion system. In fact, many traders start from the lowest position. There is a movie called "Happiness Comes Knocking on the Door" in later generations. The lowest job was to call around to recruit clients, and eventually set up my own brokerage company.

  In addition to going on this path, there are other ways out, such as setting up your own fund and so on.

  Different from those brokers who ran all over the streets in the later generations, these people all have strict and solid professional knowledge and have received systematic and strict training. Those brokers in the later generations only knew a little bit of indicator analysis, and they didn't even have the qualifications of brokers, so they dared to blatantly recruit people to open accounts.

  Many good systems in foreign companies, once introduced to mainland China, quickly changed their shape, and some even became notorious, such as insurance brokers.

  In the final analysis, the difference between certain industries and foreign counterparts is due to the differences in domestic legal system construction and implementation.

   "Fuck with me!"

   Zhong Shi drank the cold coffee in one gulp, the foam covered his lips.

"it is good!"

   Andrew agreed immediately.

   Andrew has seen the development of Zhongshi in the past few years. It can be said that he is the only one who knows about Zhongshi's financial affairs. It was precisely because of this that he readily agreed.

   Just imagine, as long as there is a little help from this kind of person, his net worth can be multiplied ten times or dozens of times immediately. How could this kind of temptation be rejected! (The last chapter of the second volume will meet with you tomorrow. Some changes have been made to the content of the last few chapters. I hope it will not disappoint your expectations.)
