Chapter 28 Nasdaq Crisis
“Why me?”
“In Beijing, I don’t know many people, and there are even fewer people who are capable and can make me believe. You are Among the people I know, he is the only one who can be trusted and is a very capable collaborator."
Xu Liang's eyes looked particularly sincere at this moment.
Jiang Xiaoyang couldn't resist his gaze and looked away.
"Xu Liang, I am now the deputy general manager of the Wealth Management Department of CITIC Securities..."
"You are only the deputy general manager, but in Hanhua Capital you will be the managing partner with 2% equity." Xu Liang interrupted.
“As the old saying goes, it’s better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. No matter how successful CITIC Securities is, others will only think that it is Wang Jianjun’s contribution, not you. But it is different at Hanhua Capital. Every one of your All talents will be perfectly displayed."
Xu Liang strongly encouraged.
After Jiang Xiaoyang hesitated for a moment, "How much money has Hanhua raised now? How many LPs are there?"
"There is a way." Xu Liang said quickly, suppressing the excitement in his heart, "The funds we raised are not too much, only about 6 million Huaxia coins, and there are only two LPs for the time being."
Of course this is coaxing All Hanhua's money belongs to him, and it hasn't been received yet.
Xu Liang also felt that Hanhua was too weak, and quickly said: "Although the company is a bit small, after all, we have been established for too short a time, and we have not been able to produce results. But tall buildings have risen from the ground. As long as we lay a good foundation, we will definitely be more brilliant in the future."
"I want to think about it," Jiang Xiaoyang said after a moment of silence.
Xu Liangliang breathed a sigh of relief. After all the talking, he finally persuaded her.
"You only have one day to think about it. If you agree, I will give you two days to go through the resignation procedures and fly to Pengcheng three days later." Xu Liang said.
"Okay."
After finishing the business, Xu Liang began to slowly enjoy the food on the table, but Jiang Xiaoyang completely lost interest.
Struggle can be seen from time to time on the pretty face.
Not even Xu Liang’s amazing appetite aroused her curiosity.
After both parties finished eating and separated, they went home.
......
For most people, it is a difficult decision to leave a platform with a promising and bright future and take the initiative to go to a small company to work hard, and Jiang Xiaoyang is no exception.
After thinking about it for a day, she didn't really make up her mind.
Thinking of the deadline Xu Liang left for her, he hesitated for a while and then took out his cell phone and dialed.
It didn't take long and the call was quickly connected.
“Xiaoyang, are you okay?”
A steady bass voice came over.
"Dad, there is something I can't make up my mind about, and I would like you to help me give me some advice."
"Hahaha, it's rare for you to be hesitant. Tell me, what's the matter? ”
Jiang Xiaoyang briefly explained the matter.
"Xiaoyang, it is easier to stay and work at CITIC, but in an already mature platform, it is difficult for you to achieve results before the age of thirty-five. If you go to a private company, especially a private company that is still in the start-up stage , you will be very tired at first, but you will also learn more and it will be easier to achieve results."
"...From my perspective as a father, of course I hope you can go to a stable platform and find a place where you can relax. With a good job, you will have a safe life in the future. But from the perspective of life ideals and value realization, there is no doubt that private companies are more training.
The specific choice depends on you. Dad supports you."
Jiang Xiaoyang pondered for a moment and nodded.
"I understand, Dad, thank you."
"Why are you so polite to me? By the way, what's the name of the private company you plan to go to?"
Jiang Xiaoyang instantly became vigilant, " What do you want to do?”
“It’s just curiosity. It’s impossible for my excellent and proud daughter to give up her privileged job and choose to work overseas.” “I don’t want to do that.” While others are working, I also have shares. By the way, Dad, don’t tell my mother about this first, otherwise she will bother me again.”
"You, you are using me as a shield again."
"Who said you are my dad. Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
After that, I hung up directly. Telephone.
She doesn't want her father to interfere in her life.
Didi...
An icon in the lower right corner of the computer flashed.
I clicked on it subconsciously and found that it was my Yahoo mailbox.
There is an English email sent from the other side of the ocean.
The content is very simple.
“On March 1, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 2.58% that day; Yahoo’s stock price plunged 15.52%.”
"Did it fall?"
Yahoo's stock price was still rising the day before yesterday, but it fell so much as soon as March entered.
15.52%.
Based on Yahoo’s stock price of US$46.7 per share after the stock split, this drop represents a loss of US$18.6 billion.
This is 18.6 billion for two thousand years!
"Is he really in custody?"
After pondering for a moment, he opened QQ, found Xu Liang's account and sent a message.
"I have already thought about it and will resign tomorrow."
The reply was very timely.
“In three years at the most, you will be extremely happy with today’s decision; in six years at the most, you will become Bai Fumei, the envy of everyone; in nine years at the most, you will become one of the most powerful women in the world. Frequent customer.”
Seeing this, the corners of Jiang Xiaoyang's mouth turned up slightly.
"Bai Fumei? This guy is always so confident."
"By the way, I forgot to tell you, I just received the news that the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 2.58% yesterday; Yahoo's stock price plunged 15.52%, you don’t have to worry about liquidation.”
“It’s indeed good news, but it’s just the beginning.”
It’s really just the beginning.

She was accompanied by a newly recruited secretary and Huo Gang, who had just obtained his driver's license and was responsible for security and acting as a driver.
