Blackening starts from the golden years

Chapter 153: Bulling Capital Bankruptcy Crisis
After completing the entry procedures, Jiang Xiaoguo and a dozen other interns sat in the conference room, waiting for the company's next arrangements. Seeing that everyone remained silent, Jiang Xiaoguo first smiled and said:
"How about we get to know each other and introduce ourselves before we officially start work?"

"Okay, let's start with me. My name is Zhong Yan, from the University of Hong Kong. You can call me Amanda."

Amanda said confidently:

“Also, I just earned my Chartered Financial Analyst Level 1 certification.”

Next, starting from Amanda, everyone introduced themselves one by one in a clockwise direction:
"My name is Peng Zhuoran, you can also call me Nancy. Amanda and I are in the same department and in the same dormitory. I have just passed the Chartered Financial Analyst Level 1 exam."

"Li Wei, from Peking University."

"Yuan Yuan, from Tsinghua University."

"Li Li, from Peking University."

"Yuxiao, Central University of Finance and Economics."

"Zhang Runyan, National Singapore."

"Hello everyone, my name is Li Yuening, from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics."

……

"Hello everyone, my name is Liu Yanran, and I am from Tsinghua University."

"Hello everyone, my name is Li Tianyang, and I am from Peking University."

As everyone introduced themselves one by one, Jiang Xiaoguo's head lowered lower and lower. When the last Li Tianyang finished introducing himself, everyone looked at Jiang Xiaoguo. She introduced herself with some embarrassment:

"Uh, Da, hello everyone, my name is Jiang Xiaoguo, Jiang Ziya's ginger, Guozi's fruit, big and small, from the Northeast."

Just when Jiang Xiaoguo was about to die of embarrassment, Guan Xiumei, the director of the investment department, walked into the conference room and smiled:
"Hello everyone, I am Guan Xiumei, the investment director of Phoenix Capital. You can call me Sister Xiuxiu. First of all, I would like to welcome you to join our Phoenix Capital family."

After some self-introduction and a general introduction to Phoenix Capital, Guan Xiumei began to take Jiang Xiaoguo and other interns to familiarize themselves with various departments of the company. This is also an old tradition of Phoenix Capital. On the first day when new employees come to work in the company, they will be familiarized with each other by The company's senior executives will be familiar with each department of the company.

Walking around the company with these interns, Guan Xiumei introduced:

"That's the company's backend department, the administrative department, the human resources department, and the information technology department, which serve the entire company."

"We continue to move forward. Here are the company's middle office department, risk control department, finance department, especially the risk control department. Our Mr. Yuan pays special attention to investment risks. All investment projects of the company must go through strict risk control. Evaluate."

"This is the company's front office, which is the investment business department, the investment department. Your office is here."

Speaking of this, Guan Xiumei looked at Jiang Xiaoguo and smiled:

"Except Jiang Xiaoguo, your office is in the president's office. However, Mr. Yuan has given special instructions to let you intern in the investment department with everyone for three months. If you perform well, you can apply to the investment department. Of course, you can also You can stay in the president’s office.”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Yuan, and thank you, Sister Xiuxiu."

Jiang Xiaoguo smiled and thanked her. The other interns all looked at her. Li Wei, who was standing with her, touched her arm and asked:

"Do you know Mr. Yuan?"

The other interns also listened with their ears pricked up. Although they were all top students who graduated from prestigious universities, they were nothing compared to big shots like Yuan Xudong. Yuan Xudong represented capital, and they were only slightly more senior. Wage earner.

"It's not like we know each other, we've only met a few times. Last time we ate rice noodles at the rice noodle restaurant downstairs, I treated Mr. Yuan to a small bowl of pickled fish rice noodles."

Jiang Xiaoguo pretended to be humble and said:
"Mr. Yuan thought it was delicious and said he would treat me to a big dinner next time."

"Jiang Xiaoguo, does Mr. Yuan like to eat pickled fish rice noodles?"

"Jiang Xiaoguo, what's the name of that rice noodle shop?"

"Jiang Xiaoguo, you and Mr. Yuan..."

Jiang Xiaoguo successfully pretended to be in front of these famous college students. Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo, who was relying on his power to gain momentum, and these young female college students who were getting restless, Guan Xiumei said with a smile:

"Everyone is quiet. If you want to win Mr. Yuan's favor, then work hard. Also, our company absolutely does not allow office romances, and Mr. Yuan is no exception. So, all you beautiful girls, show your little Just collect your thoughts, okay?"

Hearing what Guan Xiumei said, everyone laughed, and Li Wei asked a little embarrassedly:

"Sister Xiuxiu, does Mr. Yuan have a girlfriend?"

"This is Mr. Yuan's personal privacy, and I don't know if Mr. Yuan has a girlfriend."

Looking at Li Wei, Guan Xiumei smiled and said:

"If you are really curious, Mr. Yuan's office is over there. You can ask him and then come back and tell me whether he has a girlfriend, okay?"

"I don't dare ask."

Li Wei smiled shyly. As she spoke, she covered half of her face with the notebook in her hand. Seeing her like this, everyone couldn't help laughing. Guan Xiumei smiled and said:
"Okay, no kidding, do you have any questions for me?"

Jiang Xiaoguo raised his hand and asked:

"Sister Xiuxiu, um, why is there no one in the investment department?"

Guan Xiumei smiled and said:
"People in the investment position are outside running projects every day, and our company does not have a clock-in and clock-out system. Mr. Yuan said that our company will only look at the results of your work, not the process of your efforts, so, This job is not easy, so please don’t take it lightly.”

"Okay, thank you, Sister Xiuxiu."

After answering a few more questions, Guan Xiumei smiled and said:
"Okay, everyone, let's take a rest. Over there is the company's tea room and rest area. There are some snacks and drinks for everyone. Let's wait and divide into groups, and then start your first project."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Xiuxiu."

……

After temporarily arranging the interns, Guan Xiumei walked into Yuan Xudong's office. Yuan Xudong is sitting behind his desk reading financial news:
[Online games are prohibited from setting first deposits, daily logging in and giving gifts, and other inducing behaviors. Excessive consumption and high-value consumption are prohibited. All online games must set user recharge limits...]

[To protect the healthy growth of minors, all online games must set up anti-addiction mode...]

[High-value rewards are prohibited in online game live broadcasts...]

[All online games must be reported to relevant departments...]

……

Seeing Guan Xiumei coming in, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:

"Xiumei, do you know how much money I lost today?"

"How many?"

Guan Xiumei asked with a smile. Yuan Xudong leaned on the boss's chair and said helplessly:

"Unforeseen circumstances can bring disasters to people, and the valuations of the online game companies our company invests in have plummeted. This is why I have repeatedly emphasized risk control. Some companies are excellent companies with bright prospects in the morning, but they will be worse in the evening." You may fall into the dust and reduce your investment in the gaming and live streaming industries in the future. Unless it is very outstanding, it is better not to invest."

"Okay, Mr. Yuan."

Guan Xiumei smiled and said:

"I heard that Pulling Capital was in bad luck this time. They heavily invested in the War of Kings, almost gambling-style investment. Doesn't their company know how to control risks?"

Yuan Xudong smiled and said:

"I know Pu Ling and their company's president Zhou Xun. He stayed at Gaosheng for a few years and then drifted away. He felt that he was a genius. People who don't understand risks will sooner or later be driven into the abyss by risks."

……

Phoenix Capital’s tea room.

Jiang Xiaoguo made herself a cup of steaming ginger tea. She drank the ginger tea from a glass while listening to other interns chatting there.

"I heard that Pu Ling is about to go bankrupt. Do you know that?"

"seriously?"

"I think it's about the same. They didn't hire any interns this year and laid off a lot of people."

"Yes, Pulling is just a small investment company that has just been established a few years ago. Its ability to resist risks is too weak, so it is normal for it to go bankrupt."

"Phoenix Capital is better."

"That's right, Phoenix Capital is behind Phoenix Group. I heard that when Mr. Yuan first started his business, his father gave him 500 million."

"Aren't you starting from scratch?"

"How can there be so many self-made people? Mr. Yuan is only around thirty at most. How can he earn so much money just a few years after graduating from college?"

"I also want to be a rich second generation."

"The rich second generation is no longer good. You can be the wife of the rich second generation."

"Haha~~"

"But to be honest, Mr. Yuan is still very powerful. He is handsome, young and rich, and has a good family background. I really don't know what kind of woman can be his girlfriend."

Listening to these female interns chatting about Yuan Xudong's gossip, Jiang Xiaoguo took a sip of hot ginger tea, and then sighed comfortably. At this time, she thought of Liang Shuang, how could Liangzi's life be so good?

Thinking about Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan who were in the same dormitory, Jiang Xiaoguo suddenly felt that why was he alone in such a miserable life?

……

At the same time, Pulling Capital was in Zhou Xun’s office.

The company's key investment in the Online Game of Thrones project suffered heavy losses, almost depleting all of the company's liquidity. If there is no further investment, Pulling Capital will really be doomed.

When he was about to go bankrupt, Zhou Xun could only ask for help from the financial backers. He looked at Su Hang and asked anxiously:

"What did your dad tell you?"

"What else could he say?"

Because of Zhou Xun's insistence, the company is about to go bankrupt. Su Hang also said a little angry:

"He asked us to find a way by ourselves and not ask him for money every day. I shouldn't have agreed to your crazy idea in the first place. It's okay now. We, Pu Ling, will be finished soon."

"What's the point of talking about this now? Let's find someone to invest. If it doesn't work, I'll invest myself."

"Are you crazy?"

Looking at Zhou Xun who still wanted to continue gambling, Su Hang said angrily:
"We should stop our losses immediately and recover as much money as we can instead of continuing to invest."

"We can't stop the loss. We have already invested so much money. If we stop the loss now, we might as well keep betting."

"Zhou Xun, is this what investors should say?"

Zhou Xun and Su Hang got into an argument, and eventually they broke up on bad terms.
