Chapter 232 Internet Myth

Yu Hongbo had already begun to follow Hu Yang's instructions and went to the bank to gradually convert the Japanese yen in his account into US dollars. Hu Yang left the company and checked into the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

Li Kaize's reception was on the second night. After dinner, Populus euphratica came out of the hotel and took a walk along Victoria Harbor.

The night view of Xiangjiang is undoubtedly beautiful. Walking along the Populus euphratica, you can feel the quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

"Hey, if you don't do it, you won't die. I hope that people in the future will not live up to this treasured Feng Shui land."

Hu Yang sighed softly, perhaps remembering some things from his previous life, and his mood was a little complicated.

"Mr. Hu, what did you say? Why can't I understand you?"

Han Wen followed Hu Yang, only half a step behind. He undoubtedly heard Hu Yang's soliloquy, but he just didn't understand the meaning.

"Nothing, let's go back."

As the third largest financial center in the world, Xiangjiang is backed by China and has unique conditions. All of this is worth cherishing!

Hu Yang did not explain to Han Wen and walked back to the hotel in a slightly depressed mood.

"Ah Yang, I'm so sorry these past few months. My schedule is full every day. When I'm done with this period of time, I'll definitely visit you, okay?"

Back at the hotel, Liang Shuqi just got a call. She has signed a contract with a domestic brokerage company and has been busy all day long. She hasn't seen Hu Yang for a long time.

Hu Yang could also understand, and besides, he was an indifferent person. Remember when Qiao Yina wanted to go to other places to develop, he didn't stop her. People, everyone has their own way of life, there is really no need for one person to accommodate the other.

After chatting with Liang Shuqi for about twenty minutes, Hu Yang hung up.

A night of silence.

The next morning, Hu Yang came to the bank and watched Yu Hongbo complete all transactions of Japanese yen to US dollars.

"Mr. Hu, this time the average exchange rate of Japanese yen to U.S. dollars is 113. Our account previously had 150 billion yen, and after the conversion is completed, it will be 1.32743 billion U.S. dollars."

Yu Hongbo licked his lips excitedly. This foreign exchange transaction was very satisfying, and his opinions were basically adopted by the boss. He really felt a sense of accomplishment.

An investment of 1 billion US dollars resulted in a profit of more than 300 million US dollars, and Hu Yang was also very satisfied.

"Well done, Lao Yu. Come on, let's go back to the company first."

Hu Yang's eyes were full of admiration, but he didn't say much and went directly back to Huijia International Investment Company with his group.

After sending everyone away, Hu Yang casually handed Yu Hongbo a cash check.

Yu Hongbo took it over with great expectation and couldn't help but his hands were shaking. He saw that the number filled in on the check was HK$2 million.

"Boss...isn't this a bit too much?"

Yu Hongbo licked his lips habitually and spoke with a slight vibrato.

"Not much. You did a good job this time. This money is a reward for you. By the way, Lao Yu, I said you should stop working at East Asia Securities and come and help me. I need someone who is proficient in securities and futures.

, you are just the right talent for foreign exchange. As for the salary, it won’t be too high, definitely a little lower than Mr. Xu. However, depending on the effectiveness of your work, the reward will not be less. What do you think, do you want to consider it? "

The salary level of all employees at Huijia International Investment Company in Xiangjiang must be based on the local level. Therefore, in terms of salary alone, Yu Hongbo's salary under Hu Yang is only slightly higher than that at East Asia Securities.

But Yu Hongbo agreed without hesitation. Just kidding, he had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and he would not hesitate even if the salary was lower than before.

Nothing else, there is a future in working with this young boss.

Hong Bo knows very well what kind of strength Huijia International has.

"Lao Yu, your position is still in Xiangjiang, but you may need to go to Deep Sea Company to work frequently in the future, is that okay?"

Hu Yang mainly considered that he did not have talents in this field. After several cooperations, he recognized Yu Hongbo and decided on this matter.

"No problem, no problem. It's no problem if I stay there permanently. I can come back on weekends anyway."

Yu Hongbo followed Hu Yang. Although the money he earned was not enough to buy a good house, the down payment was definitely no problem. Thinking that he would soon be able to improve the housing conditions for his family, his heart was filled with excitement, no matter whether he had to go there often.

deep sea.

Hu Yang nodded, called Xu Younian, and asked him to be responsible for signing the contract with Yu Hongbo.

As for the position, Hu Yang didn't want Yu Hongbo to be in charge of a specific department, so he asked him to be the assistant to the general manager.

However, Yu Hongbo, the assistant, does not need to be responsible to Xu Younian. He only needs to be directly responsible to the boss.

In the evening, Hu Yang arrived at the reception on time.

"Mr. Hu, I happened to be abroad when you called me before. I'm really sorry. Come, let me introduce you to some elites in the investment world..."

Since it is the third largest financial center in the world, there must be many big names specializing in investment.

Hu Yang followed Li Kaize around and took a stack of business cards, but there was no one he was interested in. It wasn't that his colleagues were enemies, it was mainly because he had too little qualifications.

If Li Kaize hadn't personally led him and also highlighted that Huijia International Investment was the major shareholder of Yingdong Telecom, they probably wouldn't have paid any attention to him.

It doesn't matter to Populus euphratica, this kind of social drinking party is incompatible with him.

But now that you're here, there's no need to be unique. Eat and drink when you should. If someone comes over to strike up a conversation, he can still chat and laugh, provided you speak Chinese.

Both Mandarin and Cantonese are acceptable, but English is not required.

Hu Yang ate something and strolled slowly with a glass of wine. He would also stop for a while when he heard topics of interest.

What the men at the cocktail party talked about the most was the Internet, which is the most fashionable topic at the moment.

"Today's Internet companies do not need profits. Because what we are doing is not today or tomorrow, but the future..."

After decades, Populus euphratica, who was reborn, finally heard this argument again.

During the Internet craze that emerged in the mid-to-late 1990s, there was a very strange argument that Internet companies did not need a profit model.

In these days, as long as there is something to do with the Internet, people will pursue it. Many Internet companies are actually hyping concepts. They have no means of making profits at all. It seems that as long as someone is willing to invest money, the company will continue to expand.

This is actually a bit like the game of drumming and passing the flowers, to see who can catch the last stick.

In two years' time, after the Internet myth is shattered, a large number of Internet companies will collapse on the beach.

"Mr. Chen Bowen, your company's stock price is almost 300 US dollars, right? It's really enviable. Many investors don't understand what an Internet company is. I often use Amazon as an example. Whenever I talk about your company

, I can convince most people..."

There were quite a few people gathered together to chat, about seven or eight.

Hearing someone mention Amazon, Hu Yang couldn't help but take a closer look.

"No, no, I think you have misunderstood. I have always believed that Internet companies also need to have a profit model. If there is no profit, how can you convince your investors? The new economy does not mean that you can violate common sense in economics, right? Sorry,

I need to excuse myself."

Hu Yang saw that the man called Mr. Chen Bowen was actually a white middle-aged uncle. However, he was talking in Cantonese, and he spoke it very well.

Chen Bowen obviously did not agree with this group of people's ideas, so he walked out after speaking.

Hu Yang was standing not far from them, so he heard Chen Bowen's words clearly.

He felt that Chen Bowen was a very far-sighted person, and it was not easy for him to remain sober in an impetuous atmosphere.

"Have a nice evening, sir."

Chen Bowen left the group of people and walked towards Hu Yang. He actually had nothing to do, he just didn't want to talk to those people anymore.

Hu Yang smiled and raised his glass and said hello to Chen Wenbo.

"You too, sir, we will all have a great night."

Chen Bowen stopped, took a glass of red wine from the waiter next to him, and drank a glass with Populus euphratica.

After that, the two did not communicate again, and Chen Bowen continued to walk forward.

"Hmph, just because he is the vice president of Amazon's Greater China region, he can look down on us? I don't think he understands the Internet at all, and he is probably a marginalized figure in the company."

That group of people had been slapped in the face, and they were indignant and aggrieved.

Hu Yang was not interested in listening to their complaints, so he turned around and walked to a quieter place.

Of course, he was not interested in Chen Bowen, the vice president of Greater China. What he was really interested in was the company Amazon.

The conversation I heard just now also triggered a memory point in Yang Hu's mind.

Amazon was founded in 1995 and went public in 1997. When the company was first established, it was just a small company that operated books on the Internet, that is, an online bookstore. Later, it began to transform into e-commerce and gradually developed into the largest retail store in the United States.

E-commerce company.

In May 1997, Amazon went public, and its stock price was $18. By the end of 1998, as the Internet craze heated up, the stock price once touched $300.

However, the dot-com bubble will soon burst around the world, and Amazon will not be immune.

"Well, it's time to pay attention to this company. When Amazon's stock price returns to its original form, I might consider buying some and put it on my hands."

At this stage, the whole world is speculating on Internet stocks, especially Nasdaq. Of course Hu Yang will not choose to buy Amazon’s shares at this point in time. But as long as he is patient and waits for another two years, he will definitely be able to buy it.

floor price.

At the cocktail party, Hu Yang saw people's enthusiasm for the Internet, so he didn't care about tomorrow's promotion meeting.

The next day, Hu Yang did not go directly to the promotion meeting in the morning, but discussed the stock price trend of Yingdong Telecom with Yu Hongbo.

Yu Hongbo pointed at the computer screen and said: "Mr. Hu, there is Internet craze everywhere now. The stock price of Yingdong Telecom has also risen a lot. The company's total market value has exceeded 18 billion US dollars. However, it should not be a time to sell its shares now.
