The Rebirth of the Financial Hegemon

Fang Zhongyuan is worthy of being a general who has been able to command one side among all nations.

He has a professional background and many years of management experience in the financial industry.

Under his methodical series of arrangements, the framework of Amphibole Investment was quickly established.

In addition to formulating detailed rules and regulations, four departments were also divided.

Trading Department, Risk Control Department, and General Department.

The fourth department was proposed by Zhao Jiangchuan, and that was the Intelligence Department.

The trading department, as the name suggests, is purely for trading.

The risk control department is responsible for capital budgeting, risk control, etc.

The General Department is relatively more complicated.

Contains personnel, finance and other categories.

As for the Intelligence Department, it is a very unfamiliar department to many people.

Investment banking intelligence agencies can be traced back to the United States in the 1960s.

Similar to the responsibilities of a country's intelligence department, the intelligence departments of large investment banks mainly collect, analyze and research various required information.

and find value in the information.

This information includes changes in the global capital market, the actual situation of material supply and demand, policies announced by governments of various countries, etc.

In addition, investment bank intelligence departments also have the function of guiding public opinion in a targeted manner.

In the United States, large investment companies often have their own secret intelligence departments.

For example, Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Morgan. Citi, etc.

All have their own intelligence analysis agencies.

But in China in the 1990s, let alone a company establishing its own intelligence department, many people had never even heard of any company having an intelligence department.

But Zhao Jiangchuan is different.

He knows very well that when a company becomes big, it is not much different from an army.

If the financial market is viewed as a kingdom,

The major financial institutions are the powerful families in this kingdom.

Every wealthy family wants to grab a piece of fat in this kingdom, and every company wants to make huge profits here.

Therefore, these clans will have their own private armies and launch wars again and again in this kingdom.

Only war can gain enough benefits.

As for retail investors, they are soldiers, or to be precise, cannon fodder.

Cannon fodder fighting for each other.

Since it is a war, there must be opponents.

Any investment company is like a giant crocodile with a big mouth. Eating small shrimps like retail investors is just an appetizer. What it really wants to swallow is always a fattened big fish.

It's okay when a company has small funds, but once it grows bigger, bigger institutions will want to swallow it up.

Gambling agreements, hostile takeovers, forced annexations, capital suppression, and multi-party sniping.

There is nothing you can't think of and nothing you can't do.

Many times, some giant companies that can be ranked in the top ten in the world will be attacked by capital.

Just like the famous national copper reserve incident in the post-war era, the petrochemical joint incident, etc.

And these are just remote corners.

Sometimes, even a country will be jointly attacked by financial giants.

In the world of capital, there are only interests and intrigues, and the bloodshed is beyond imagination. When devouring other opponents, you must also be prepared to be devoured by other opponents.

With the height that Zhao Jiangchuan once stood, he naturally had his own intelligence department.

Analyze the opponent's comprehensive strength, guard against the scrutiny of other investment banks, create various fake smoke screens to confuse the opponent, etc.

The role of an intelligence agency can never be underestimated.

It's just that these things are completely unfamiliar territory to Zhang Hua and Fang Zhongyuan.

So when Zhao Jiangchuan proposed establishing an intelligence department, Zhang Hua and Fang Zhongyuan were both confused.

They simply can't understand the point of having an intelligence department just to open a company.

Zhao Jiangchuan didn't explain either.

The current intelligence department is only a preliminary concept, and it will take a long time to develop it.

…..

After a week, under the training and guidance of Fang Zhongyuan, the company's new employees have gradually mastered their functions.

People in the trading department are also familiar with basic trading methods, opening and selling, handicap language and instructions, etc.

As for Zhao Jiangchuan, he was playing with his secretary in the office.

Ouyang Lan.

A native of Magic City.

Twenty-two years old, graduated from East China Normal University.

Like others, he was selected by Zhao Jiangchuan when he applied for a job, and was eventually assigned as his personal secretary by Zhao Jiangchuan.

The reason is very simple,

Ouyang Lan is very beautiful.

He has well-proportioned features, fair complexion, and hair as black as black ink.

She also has a good figure, big in all the places where she should be big, and slender in all the parts that should be thin.

The body shape is also the petite one of Jiangnan women.

This is Zhao Jiangchuan's favorite one.

She has a nice voice and has the gentle personality of a Jiangnan woman.

Such a woman would be a waste of money if she was not used as a secretary and allowed to work.

Pleasantness is the real value.

As the saying goes, if you have something to do, the secretary will do it, and if you have nothing else to do, the secretary will play.

Zhao Jiangchuan deeply agreed with this.

Ouyang Lan usually handles all documents and the like. It is really refreshing to tease the little girl when she has free time.

"Ouyang, what do you think the animals in this painting should be like when they form Chinese characters?"

In the office, Zhao Jiangchuan was teasing Ouyang Lan with a painting.

But with that serious look, no one could guess what kind of naughty ideas this guy was harboring.

Ouyang Lan didn't know either.

But she knew that the young guy in front of her was the real boss of the company.

When the boss asks questions, the subordinates dare not say anything.

Ouyang Lan carefully observed the painting in Zhao Jiangchuan's hand.

There are two birds on a tree.

Below, there is a sheep.

Fortunately, Ouyang Lan graduated from the Normal College, and she quickly guessed how the Chinese characters should be formed in this painting.

This kind of pediatrician's ability to read pictures and read is not a piece of cake for her.

Sheep, just raise them.

Two birds, isn’t that just raising two birds?

Ouyang Lan couldn't guess why Zhao Jiangchuan asked such a simple question, but she still answered honestly.

"Raise two birds."

Ga…..

Why don't you follow the routine?

Zhao Jiangchuan looked dull.

Does she know this is a deliberate pretense?

It doesn't make sense.

"No, no."

Ouyang Lan was in a daze this time.

It would be wrong.

But looking at Zhao Jiangchuan's serious look, it seemed that she had really guessed wrong.

How to interpret it?

Ouyang Lan looked at the picture again seriously.

"I can remind you that these two birds are a brother and sister. Ouyang, you have to work hard. If you answer correctly, your bonus will be increased by 100 yuan this month."

When there are rewards, there is motivation.

The bonus of one hundred yuan made Ouyang Lan very excited.

But no matter what she said, Zhao Jiangchuan shook his head and said it was wrong.

Ouyang Lan was anxious.

"Boss, can you give me some more tips?"

"Okay, the bird on the left is the brother of the bird on the right. When the bird on the right sees the sheep below, what will it say to the bird on the left?"

The bird on the left is my brother, and the sheep below...

Suddenly, Ouyang Lan's eyes lit up. She found a black line on the side of the sheep's neck, which was obviously blood.

At this moment, Ouyang Lan immediately burst into laughter, and her phoenix eyes twinkled.

"Haha, I know, I know, the bird on the right said, brother, the sheep below is dead, the sheep below is dead, right?"

"Ha ha….."

After wasting half a day, he finally heard the answer he wanted to hear, and Zhao Jiangchuan couldn't help laughing.

That mean smile looks like a wolf grandma.

"Boss, did I guess it right?"

"Yeah, Ouyang, you are so awesome, you have guessed all this, haha..."

"Oh yeah..."

Suddenly, Ouyang Lan's smile stopped. Zhao Jiangchuan's smile always made her feel that something was wrong.

After a moment, Ouyang Lan's pretty face turned red instantly, not knowing if she thought of something.

"Ha ha…"

After seeing the clouds flying on Ouyang Lan's face, Zhao Jiangchuan couldn't stop laughing.

The true value of this hundred yuan flower.

But just when Zhao Jiangchuan was about to continue teasing, someone knocked on the door.

"Bang bang..."

"Come in."

"Boss, something happened in Sichuan Changhong."
