King of Capital

March 3th, the dragon raises its head.

According to the custom in Guangdong, if the dragon does not raise its head, I will raise my head, and I will have enough food and clothing and no worries.

Early in the morning, my mother brought the steaming and fragrant dragon beard noodles to the dining table. My father was sitting in the living room watching the news on TV. When he heard a slight noise, he looked towards the bedroom with the door open.

Zou Jingyi lowered her head slightly, her fluffy and messy hair covering half of her face, and together with her bulky pajamas, she concealed her miserable mood.

I said good morning to my parents as usual, then walked straight through the living room and into the bathroom to wash up.

Let’s go back to Shenzhen tomorrow. Each bedroom in our villa has an independent bathroom, which is much better than this rental house, she said silently to herself while looking in the mirror.

"Baby, your phone, answer it!"

My mother suddenly appeared at the bathroom door, clutching her cell phone with restrained anticipation in her eyes.

"…We cannot guarantee that all positions can be converted to regular positions, but we will initiate the regularization process during the three to six-month internship period based on the wishes of both parties. If retention is not possible for various reasons, we will actively recommend outstanding students to other talent project positions at Xiyou."

The administrative notice, which followed the rules and was emotionless, emphasized the reminder at the end. Zou Jingyi put down her phone in a trance, and the toothpaste foam hanging at the corner of her mouth slid down freely.

She turned her head to look at her mother and said vaguely, "I passed the interview, Grapefruit."

"I knew you could do it, baby!" Mom screamed and jumped on the spot.

The father who was walking back and forth in the living room stopped and calmly sent a message to the real estate agent.

The house I looked at yesterday was just okay. It was conveniently located and saved my daughter time for her commute to work. She personally reviewed it and had no problem signing the contract.

It’s not one of those mixed companies in the office buildings around Lujiazui. Xie Jingxing Grapefruit Capital, it doesn’t matter whether it’s good or not, the main thing is that my daughter recognizes them more!
This way and that...

Zou Jingyi listened to her parents and real estate agents talk about her psychological journey for several days in a row. March 3th came in a flash, and she was finally free to report to the company.

White high-waisted wide-leg trousers paired with a blue striped shirt, a pair of mid-heeled Mary Jane shoes, and a brand new Dior commuter bag.

Zou Jingyi found herself at the graduation ceremony a few months ago, and walked into Grapefruit Capital with curiosity and confidence to explore the world and the future.

“First of all, welcome everyone to join Grapefruit Capital. I am Daisy, the director of the administrative department. Next, I and my colleagues from the investment and post-investment operations departments will help you complete the half-month pre-job training.”

The long-haired female director with a simple silk scarf tied around her neck briefly introduced herself, looked around the room, and got straight to the point: "Everyone, take a look at the internship contract in front of you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

“Is reading the contract the first test for our internship?”

The wheat-skinned girl with a princess-cut hairstyle on her right side was telling a joke. Zou Jingyi glanced at her subtly.

"Liao Yan, consumer group."

The girl with the princess cut was very perceptive. She picked up the work badge on the internship contract and shook it: "I'm the first one to arrive. I have memorized everyone's basic information. If you need any help, just ask."

"Of course, this also includes this contract." She took out a pen and started writing.

Zou Jingyi showed a friendly smile and gently broke the ice: "Thank you, are you a law student?"

"I majored in civil engineering and finance, and I taught myself a little bit of commercial law, so I have no problem reading standard contracts." Liao Yan is quite proactive.

A sturdy boy with a baby face on the left joined the conversation: "Before signing the contract, there should be a self-introduction session. I am Zhang Youzhou, majoring in economics and financial engineering."

Zou Jingyi was caught in the middle and had to do two things at once, greeting the two friends while briefly looking through the contract.

As Liao Yan said, there should be no problem with the standard contract. She took out a pen and was about to sign it, but her movements stopped when she saw the numbers of the salary structure.

The monthly salary is 23,000 yuan, and the semi-annual bonus will be paid after the internship period is converted to a regular employee, plus the 14th salary, etc...

As expected, compared with the standards of foreign dollar funds, it is more detailed and richer than what was stated orally during the interview. If calculated based on the whole year, the average annual salary of interns is as high as more than 500,000.

After becoming a regular employee, the basic salary will be significantly increased and the salary will be adjusted every six months. That is to say, if you work steadily for two years in an orderly manner and get some bonuses, you can almost reach the annual salary threshold of one million before tax.

"Reasonable."

An inexplicable thought flashed through Zou Jingyi's mind, and she took in all the nine interns except her. Academic qualifications or the industry's contempt chain were vulnerable in the face of super high salaries.

No wonder the competition for grapefruit interviews is so fierce that even a PhD in mathematics from MIT came back to serve his motherland.

Zou Jingyi couldn't help but turn her eyes and look at the two friends beside her again. She was deeply wondering if the resumes of all the people in the room were shining with gold, and she was not a little white rabbit that fell into a pack of wolves.

"To be frank, resumes can only screen out the unsuitable ones, and internship performance determines whether or not you are suitable."

Executive Director Daisy collected the signed contracts and directed with a smile, "Please put your personal belongings here. I will lead everyone to travel light and truly enter Grapefruit."

The double entendre made the interns concentrate. Zou Jingyi calmed down and followed Liao Yan out of the meeting room.

Just a few days later, looking at the nine-foot concert-grade piano in the lobby on the first floor and the visitors sitting in the reception area and chatting quietly, the feeling was completely different.

I took the elevator to the second floor. I saw a large area of ​​spacious office area empty, with only a few colleagues working quietly. I had met them all during the interview.

"The company has a total of 63 employees, 23 of whom are responsible for front-line investment business. It is they who have supported the record of investing in 147 projects throughout the year."

Daisy gestured and introduced: "Normally, there are a lot of visitors to receive on Mondays and Tuesdays, and there are more business trips from Wednesday to Friday. The work status is free and flexible. Only at the annual meeting can we see the whole department gather together."

"Mr. Zhou Wei, who is in charge of your technical training, has gone on a business trip today. He will be back to see you all in a few days." She gave an additional explanation.

A classmate with a 3:7 hairstyle tapped the badge on his chest and said, "Mr. Zhou Wei is from the Internet Innovation Group."

"That's right. President Zhou Wei joined the company at the end of last year and currently holds the record for promotion to SA-VP. I hope one of you can surpass him."

Daisy pointed casually: "He also has a background in civil engineering and has worked on construction sites for several years."

"I chose the Internet Innovation Group for the interview." Liao Yan raised her eyebrows when she was pointed at.

"In fact, it doesn't matter which team you join at the beginning. As long as you reach the SA level, you can look after projects independently. You can work in four sectors: Internet, entertainment, hard technology, and the consumer group that is being prepared."

As we finished touring the second floor, Daisy gave us some encouragement.

When the interns went up to the third floor, they saw a different scene. The entire floor was filled with cubicles and meeting rooms, with occasional colleagues walking by in a hurry.

Looking around, most of the employees are female, and most of them are stunningly beautiful, one more beautiful than the other. As for the few remaining women with rich work experience, just recognize their faces through the French windows and don't disturb them at work.

Director Daisy was really considerate and polite, totally unlike how she was in the meeting room on the first floor just now...

Zou Jingyi pursed her lips and inadvertently met Liao Yan's eyes, then glanced at Zhang Youzhou tacitly, and the three of them smiled knowingly.

This layer is the middle and back-end department, among which the post-investment management and operation is responsible for the financial and legal tracking and review of the invested projects, and it will control the future project exit.

Due to the nature of the business, it is natural that the majority of employees are sisters with rich work experience. Although their salaries are lower than those of the front desk department, they have strong fighting power within the company.

Secondly, there is no need to say much about the fundraising and investor relations maintenance departments. In the luxury car industry, there is a joke that a salesperson leaves the company for every car sold, and in the venture capital industry, there is also a story about a beautiful fundraising manager running away with an investor.

In this kind of work environment where good looks naturally prevail, some colleagues who look ordinary are definitely extraordinary tough guys.

It is only natural for Director Daisy to strive to be a pioneer and role model of civility and politeness.

"The company is preparing for this year's fundraising plan. My colleagues are very busy. You can learn more about it yourself when you have time."

She brought a group of people back to her home turf and resumed her high-class style, explaining with great satisfaction how the administrative department negotiated with the chef of her own restaurant cafeteria to frequently change the menu, or how to urge the company's employees to get physical examinations and choose commercial insurance.

All kinds of trivial matters fall under the category of welfare benefits and are an indispensable part of corporate culture. We cannot ask employees to shout about their wolf nature and then shirk all responsibility after they die from overwork.

Young Marshal Xie always called himself a capitalist rather than a national entrepreneur. The accidental death of Wang Xueqing, former manager of the securities active strategy investment group, is still remembered by the Xiyou administration.

There is a psychological counseling room on the fourth floor. Even though the psychologist sitting inside is extremely bored, he planted almost the entire floor with flowers and plants.

"Students, if you have any problems in your work or life, please feel free to come and chat with me, drink tea, practice calligraphy, or make some handicrafts. I am also preparing to apply for funding to set up a handmade ceramics hobby room..."

The professor from Fudan University's psychology department has a slightly bald head and a broad build.

This stable, long-term part-time job pays so well. At first I only had to work two days a week as per the contract, but now I am very motivated to work overtime.

After all, it would be a waste if no one enjoys the leisure room of an entire floor of a Western-style building near Lujiazui, which covers an area of ​​500 to 600 square meters.

The interns were stunned as they toured the company. Apart from the fact that 23 employees invested in 147 projects throughout the year, which sounded very exciting, there was nothing special about the company and it did not have any unique qualities that befitted the king of venture capital.

But at this moment, the so-called leisure floor in front of us is very abnormal.

"Have you ever seen this when you were interning at Goldman Sachs headquarters in New York? When I was interning at Temasek, I mostly organized interest groups, and the company gave me funding for the activities."

"Goldman Sachs is well-known on Wall Street for being stingy with its employees. Besides, there are thousands of employees sitting in its headquarters building. There is no comparison!"

"Goldman Sachs is considered stingy? Then I'm an intern at CICC and I went to a nightclub with my supervisor. Party A treated me as a member of the company to develop hobbies and interests. What does that count as?"

"The instructor is so honest! Which one did you go to... Oh, no, you're interning at CICC, how did you get into Xiyou?"

"Bah!, buddy, you did well in the interview, but do you know what it means to have three failed startups during college?!"

The interns whispered to each other about their illnesses, feeling ashamed of themselves and unworthy of the perverted level of their own company.

Zou Jingyi listened silently and paid more attention to this genius who had experienced three entrepreneurial failures, had a wealthy family, was able to withstand setbacks, and was gifted.

"This floor is currently mainly used for teaching. The company occasionally invites successful people from all walks of life to share their life experiences, and experts from all walks of life to share their industry knowledge."

Daisy suppressed her twitching lips and interrupted the people who were talking more and more outrageously, and brought the topic back on track: "As the team expands in the future, it will gradually be used for office purposes."

"Um, teacher, I want to ask, are those photos on the wall people who have been invited by the company?" Liao Yan asked to herself.

Writer Han Han, entrepreneur Zhang Chaoyang, scientist Yuan Longping, a total of more than a dozen unrelated celebrities, seemed to confirm the correctness of what the psychology professor said.

——It’s great to be a rich boss, you can do whatever you want!
"Okay, that's the end of the tour."

Daisy patiently introduced the interns for a while. It was almost lunchtime, so she led everyone downstairs in the elevator: "At noon, you will report to your work group. At 2 pm, gather on the fourth floor to officially begin training."

"It seems that no one from our group is in the company." Zou Jingyi was embarrassed.

Zhang Youzhou added: "We are both from the Internet industry group."

"Mr. Tang should be on a business trip. You two should go directly to see Mr. He at noon." Daisy thought for a moment and offered a solution.

This group of interns worked in both the front-end investment department and the middle and back-end departments. After receiving the instructions, they immediately split up and went their separate ways, forming groups of two or three according to their respective departments to have lunch.

Some ran to the cafeteria in the next building, while some smart kids sneaked out of the company compound in a low-key manner.

"Let's go out to eat." Liao Yan suggested at the last minute.

Zhang Youzhou objected: "I want to go to the cafeteria."

"Today is Monday. Boss Daisy just said that there are many visitors in the first two days of each week. The regular employees are probably having business banquets in restaurants around the company, and the cafeteria is filled with colleagues from the middle and back-end departments." Liao Yan shrugged.

Zhang Youzhou asked thoughtfully: "Okay, then shall we go out to eat?"

"No problem." Zou Jingyi spoke less and listened more, appearing to be exceptionally quiet and reserved.

"We just didn't visit the fifth floor, which is where the Xinhai Fund management team is located. It is said that the front desk staff is even smaller than that of Xiyou, and most of the middle and back-end staff are in the Luzhou office."

Liao Yan concluded and calculated: "The average office space per person is about 20 square meters, which is a very good level."

"So how many employees does the parent company of the building next door, Jingxing Investment Group, have?" Zhang Youzhou asked the key point.

"20~30, 30~50?"

Liao Yan was well-informed and warned cautiously: "The parent company's business is very complicated. Be more careful when communicating with their employees in the future. You may be summoned for a risk control and compliance interview."

"They are doing secondary market business." Zou Jingyi revealed carefully.

Zhang Youzhou smiled and said, "Proprietary business and asset management?"

"It seems that we are only self-operated for the time being, and the specific business is still being adjusted. Director Daisy should introduce the company's structure this afternoon." Zou Jingyi stopped there.

Liao Yan glanced at her and blew a breath frivolously, causing her princess-cut hair to flutter at the temples. (End of this chapter)
