  Chapter 349 Actively seeking a job?

   Explained to William's assistant and the company's financial officer, and asked them to contact the city hall to handle the remaining procedures.

  Please keep them informed of the latest developments. After Ye Dongqing hung up the phone, she called the bank again to confirm if there was any problem with the funds. The answer she got was that she could do it anytime.

Don't think it's a big problem to borrow three to five billion US dollars now, but if one day Ye Dongqing's business really has a life-and-death problem, it is estimated that these "good friends" in the bank will run faster one by one, just because It's just profitable, and he didn't take it to heart when he heard the polite words on the phone.

The capital chain of Danshui Investment Group can be rounded up, and there is no pressure to mobilize 1 billion 800 million U.S. dollars, but this time he decided to borrow money from the bank to build the building. It is estimated that it will take four to five years to complete the project. By then Ye Dongqing felt that he must already be quite rich, so he didn't care about the interest.

  The person talking to Ye Dongqing was Wu Di, the deputy manager of the credit financing department of Citibank, a serious Chinese, whose ancestors came from Xiangjiang.

He graduated from Harvard Business School in 1983 and worked on Wall Street for over twenty years. Now he is stuck in the so-called "ceiling" stage. At about fifty years old, he can go up one step further, but because this is the United States, There is a certain negative sentiment towards Chinese Americans in general, so it is almost impossible to climb any further.

   Recently, it seems that he has the idea of ​​getting along with Ye Dongqing. Last month, Wu Di asked him to play a round of golf, and by the way, he went to his small wine brewing factory to play around.

I appreciate the other party's ability, but it's a pity that Wu Di used too much force, which made Ye Dongqing feel a bit deliberate, and the age gap between the two parties is relatively large. How much I like it, if it is a young beauty, the impression score will probably be completely different.

In the United States, the vast majority of Chinese Americans will never touch the so-called "ceiling" in their lifetime. This word roughly means that in many companies in the United States, although Asian employees have always had an advantage in number, few of them can enter senior management. layer.

  Asians, especially the Chinese who account for the vast majority of Asians, face this promotion bottleneck is particularly prominent.

  At the executive meetings of major companies in the United States, Chinese people seldom show up, and even if they do, they are often alone, appearing a little lonely.

  Mr. Wu Di already belongs to the lucky category, capable and intelligent, and now he has entered the ranks of senior executives at Citibank, but it is still not the most core category, and the bosses above are all white.

The reason why I said this is because Mr. Wu Di suddenly said to Ye Dongqing at this moment: "Boss Ye, I heard that you are running a hedge fund company recently? Some time ago, a hedge fund company wanted to poach me to work. In recent years, it has become very popular, and I almost agreed to it."

   I don’t think this is just a casual remark, but Ye Dongqing thinks a lot about it, for example, does Mr. Wu Di want to change jobs to work under him, or does he want to cooperate with him?

Nothing to talk about, nothing to talk about, to be a senior executive at Citibank, you must have the ability, and Mr. Wu Di has worked in Citigroup for almost ten years, and his network of contacts is not small, and he may be able to help attract many big client.

  The question is, in the credit department of Citigroup, someone sold his face for profit, but after leaving Citibank, can he continue to attract others? Even if the high salary is given to let the other party change jobs, the position arrangement is still a big problem. The position of executive officer Ye Dongqing has been temporarily reserved, and the position of vice president is given to him. It may be awkward to get along with each other every day, and maybe the other party will be recruited as a partner.

  All these issues need to be considered carefully first. You can’t trick the other party into leaving Citigroup, and then kick them away.

There are both disadvantages and advantages. The former is not obvious, but the latter is obvious. For example, if you are willing to change jobs, you can see that Mr. Wu Di is more motivated and ambitious than Ye Dongqing imagined. This is what is needed to create a hedge fund company. As for the big clients with funds in hand, the more the better.

A little impulsive, but Ye Dongqing still pretended to be confused, laughed, and said: "My company has just been registered, so you know it? It's just me making a fuss, don't worry, I will never forget you Citigroup if I have business! "

   Just as he guessed, Mr. Wu Di was really depressed at Citigroup, and he even consulted with the company's psychiatrist.

   What his wife meant was that if she didn’t like it, she could change to a new job. Anyway, her daughter was about to graduate from college, and her retirement savings were about the same. There was no need to suffer from occupational diseases, and she often worked overtime for those who didn’t respect him.

These suggestions made Mr. Wu Di think carefully, and took advantage of his position to hook up with Ye Dongqing. Originally, he wanted to seek a job at Danshui Investment Group. Yesterday, he accidentally heard that Ye Dongqing wanted to set foot in the field of hedge funds. , which is ready for activity.

Thinking that Ye Dongqing didn't understand what he meant, Mr. Wu Di was a little depressed, coughed and asked: "Excuse me, are you free tonight? I want to talk to you face to face, about the loan approval, and the hedge fund About the company..."

  Ye Dongqing did not refuse.

   It is a kind of recognition that the other party values ​​their company, and there is no need to directly reject talents.

Danshui Investment Group has a lot of people, but there are not many senior managers with management experience and connections. If it is at other times, it will be difficult to find Mr. Wu Di without paying a huge price. Jobs poached by executives of big multinational banks.

Don't worry too much about the loan, the land is mortgaged, and the money for building the building has a supervision mechanism, and there are other supplementary collaterals. It is impossible for the bank to refuse the request of a high-quality customer like Ye Dongqing, unless it is insolvent Besides, the real estate market in Manhattan has been very stable in recent decades. In case of accidents, Citigroup does not mind changing to a new headquarters, or directly reselling it to make up for losses.

  The documentary got off to a good start.

Ye Dongqing felt that it was necessary to go to the Puchuan Building to have a face-to-face conversation with Mr. McCord, and asked the film crew if they would go. The director agreed immediately, and sent a few people to follow, one sound engineer, two cameramen, that's all. many.

I got on the helicopter to shoot, and I also shoot in mid-air. There is almost no privacy at all. Until now, the director has not mentioned the focus of the shooting. It seems to be really casual. This makes Ye Dongqing have bad thoughts and is worried that Gates will Mister compare.

But think about it again, that guy is already richer, and there is nothing shameful in losing a little bit. In July, Gates donated 3 billion US dollars of wealth at one time. He has donated a lot of money before, and his reputation Surprisingly good.

The charitable foundation also promised that the annual donation amount should not be less than 5% of the total assets. Considering that the charitable assets themselves are also making money, the sustainability is quite strong. A lot of money, turned into more money.

  This is the meaning of Ye Dongqing's establishment of a charity foundation, but no matter what, at least he can do something good every year and help other people...
