Starting with a fully invested A-share portfolio to become a capital...

Chapter 32 Whose Opportunity?

The next day, the sun shines brightly.

After a night of light rain, the air in Shanghai was exceptionally fresh in the morning, accompanied by the unique fragrance of April flowers.

On Century Avenue in Shanghai, a brand-new four-door BMW M3 coupe sped along the main road. The roar of the internal combustion engine made Tao Yuang, who was in the driver's seat, step on the gas again.

"boom--"

The speed increased again.

It's often said that the poor play with cars while the rich play with watches, but for Tao Yuang, whose career is just getting on track, this M3, which cost nearly a million yuan, has already given him a taste of the thrill of wealth.

Not a moment.

The vehicle drove into the parking lot of Building 1568.

He skillfully parked his car in the designated parking area for Huaxin Securities and then headed straight for the elevator.

He entered the elevator, put on his name tag, and pressed the button for the third floor.

As the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, accompanied by a "ding," he had arrived at the third floor of the building, which was the rented space of Huaxin Securities Shanghai Branch.

Good morning, Manager Tao.

"Good morning."

As soon as he entered the company's reception area, the receptionist quickly stood up to greet him, and Tao Yuang nodded in response.

"By the way, Manager Tao, Supervisor Li just told you to go to his office first when you arrive at the company."

Despite its large size and status as one of the top securities firms in China, Huaxin Securities may seem impressive.

But in a place like Lujiazui where land is incredibly valuable, it also has to consider cost-saving measures.

"understood."

"Then Manager Tao, please get back to your work."

"it is good."

Tao Yuang strode through the office area and headed straight for Manager Li's private office.

Although it's called a private office, it's actually just a simple area separated by a layer of soundproof glass and privacy strips.

"咚咚-"

Tao Yuang knocked on the open glass door.

Sitting in the office at that moment was a man in his fifties with thick hair, wearing a white shirt and gold-rimmed glasses.

His name is Li Zhenrui, a senior executive at Huaxin Securities' Shanghai branch, and Tao Yuang's direct superior.

"director."

"Yu'ang is here, come in first."

Should we close the door?

"Need not."

Tao Yuang then walked into the office, went to one side of his desk, and waited quietly for what was to come.

Li Zhenrui revealed a hint of admiration and said sideways, "I didn't expect you to be able to do market research reports. How about you consider starting a subscription column? The company will give you resources."

"what?"

Tao Yuang was completely bewildered.

Seeing that the other party was still pretending, Li Zhenrui laughed and said, "Don't worry about the increased workload. If you do well with the column, doubling your income is not a problem."

Tao Yuang was completely bewildered; he had never done any market research reports.

Besides, even if he did do it, how would Li Zhenrui know?
"You, you just like to keep a low profile. The day before yesterday, you left work early, saying you had something to do. It just so happened that a big client needed to see you that day, so I used your computer to log into the backend and approved his subscription. Then I discovered that you can actually do market research reports, and even better than the data department."

Li Zhenrui explained the whole story, and then said, "I only helped you get this opportunity because of Shuxue. If the program succeeds, you might be the next Sun Jiandong."

Sun Jiandong joined China Asset Management in 2004, served as the fund manager of China Asset Management Dividend Fund in June 2005, and concurrently served as the fund manager of China Asset Management Revival Fund in January 2008.

During his tenure, Huaxia Dividend Fund achieved a total return of over 500%. In 2008, despite a market downturn, Huaxia Revival Fund achieved a net asset value growth rate of 29.873%, demonstrating outstanding performance and being named one of the top ten best equity funds in the 2008 China Fund Ranking.

Only those who have worked as fund managers know that the income of star managers and ordinary managers is vastly different, separated by an insurmountable chasm.

Take Sun Jiandong, this star manager, for example. His annual management fee is at least tens of millions of Chinese yuan.

With company resources to support him, it would be a lie to say Tao Yuang wasn't tempted. But the problem was, the market research report wasn't his work. The market research report file on his workstation desktop was a pirated copy he'd obtained through other student channels after hearing that Zhang Yang was selling self-made research reports to students at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.

He originally thought that something produced by a student couldn't possibly be of any quality.

But as he examined the situation more closely, he immediately discovered Zhang Yang's terrifying talent.

This is why, on Monday, while confronting Zhang Yang to "question him," he also extended an olive branch.

Excellent financial market analysts are highly sought after wherever they go.

It's somewhat similar to "physical chemistry." As long as you master these three things, you can advance to major cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, or retreat to Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan.

"Have you thought it through? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Li Zhenrui asked again.

"I'll go back and think about it some more. You know I'm already thirty-two, and I've been thinking about getting married to Shuxue recently."

As Tao Yuang pulled Yue Shuxue out to shield him from the bullets, his mind raced, trying to figure out how to seize this opportunity.

Becoming a star fund manager is like going from a lowly extra in Hengdian World Studios to a hot celebrity overnight; the income is on a completely different level.

"I see. Okay, then you two get married first, and give me your answer after this is over."

Li Zhenrui nodded slightly.

For other reasons, he might not be able to resist getting angry.

But when it comes to Yue Shuxue, he has to give her some face, after all, her father is the leader of the audit department.

……

Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.

Wudong Road Campus.

On the first day of the new day, Zhang Yang quickly washed up and went straight to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Thursday is a free day for investment studies, which is like a day off and one of the most enjoyable days of university life.

Looking at Zhang Yang, who carries a laptop bag and gets up early to eat breakfast, many junior students can immediately recognize him as a graduating student majoring in investment.

While other majors' graduating students are also busy, the only ones who bring their laptops to the cafeteria early in the morning are basically investment majors, because only they need to manage capital markets at 9:15 am.

Because this year's investment graduates are far ahead in the "Huaxin Simulated Trading Competition", the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics' campus forum is extremely lively.

Students from top universities such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, Huazhong University of Finance and Economics, and Southwestern University of Finance and Economics came to investigate, wanting to know why a university with a B+ major could compete with universities with an A+ major.

Among the more than 400 replies to the popular post, a student from Huazhong University of Finance and Economics posted a question asking if the investment students in this year's class at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics had taken some kind of stimulant, as some of them had achieved a return rate approaching 50%, while their highest return rate was only 35%, making the difference obvious.

Current students at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, as well as alumni, responded by posting their own messages.

[A Little Flower]: Fortune changes every thirty years, so don't underestimate Shanghai's wealth!

[Little Bad]: A 50% return? This year's investment graduates are insane! My alma mater's investment program might even be rated A!

[White Girl]: I hope my alma mater will rise to prominence soon. I'm currently working like a slave for others. If my major gets an A+ rating, maybe I can benefit from it.

Discussions on Baidu Tieba among recent graduates majoring in investment have also brought unprecedented attention to the "Huaxin Simulated Trading Competition".

All students at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics are eagerly anticipating the birth of a new flagship program, as it concerns the honor of their alma mater.

After finishing his meal, Zhang Yang took his computer to the library.

Because laptops are valuable items, they need to be registered. After registering, Li Xiaochun, a finance major with two braids, cheered for Zhang Yang: "Go Zhang Yang! Crush the other finance and economics universities!"

"Okay, I'll do my best."

Zhang Yang smiled faintly.

He loves surfing the internet, so he naturally knows about the posts on the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics forum.

After registering his valuables, Zhang Yang went straight to the financial analysis room on the sixth floor.

He's now somewhat hoping that Changan Automobile can hit the daily limit today. If it does, he'll have to help Lai Weijie's demo account take profits and keep its score in the bottom three of the top ten.

As for Xu Zhiruo's demo account and password, they were sent to Zhang Yang's QQ last night. Now the latter needs to operate three securities accounts at the same time, one of which is a live trading account.
