Through Thick and Thin

"Hey, Yuanyuan." Zhou Ruiyang was sitting on the sofa in a commuter men's clothing store, holding a few paper bags in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, "I'm outside, and I'm with Chuiqing, I'm out shopping for work. clothes."

While Lu Chuiqing carefully selected all kinds of commuter suits, and was hesitating whether to buy a pure white or light blue shirt, she heard Zhou Ruiyang explain a little aggrieved on the phone from afar.

"No...Yuanyuan, didn't you go to the class reunion, that's why I didn't look for you..." Zhou Ruiyang said helplessly, "I didn't tell you on purpose, and it didn't take much time."

After Lu Chuiqing had basically made his choice, Zhou Ruiyang finally put down his phone and sighed deeply.

Lu Chuiqing: "What's the matter? Did you quarrel with Liu Yuanyuan again?"

Zhou Ruiyang was quite puzzled and said: "Doesn't she blame me for going shopping with others? She even eats your jealousy, and it's not like she doesn't know how many years I have been friends with you. Just because you are an Omega, she You have to think of us as impure."

Lu Chuiqing hesitated for a while: "Ruiyang, don't be angry if I ask you something, do you really think... Liu Yuanyuan is suitable for you? I don't think there is something wrong with her, but I just asked."

"I can't tell if it's suitable or not now. We've been together for less than half a year, but I still hope that we can get along well. Yuanyuan is just a little jealous, and everything else is fine." Zhou Ruiyang squinted He glanced at him, "It's you, why don't you talk about your partner? I think there are quite a few people in school who want to chase you."

"Why do you have to look for it at school." Lu Chuiqing said indifferently, "And I'm busy recently."

"You started to say 'I'm busy recently' three years ago, buddy. You said that you have finished the CPA exam now, and you are going to practice in a firm soon. After the internship, you will not be able to graduate easily with your ability. Maybe you'll become a regular at that time." Zhou Ruiyang raised his hand and punched Lu Chuiqing on the shoulder as he spoke, "You're so fucking awesome."

Lu Chuiqing smiled and called back.

In the second exam in October last year, Lu Chuiqing was not very sure of passing all subjects.On the day when the results came out, Lu Chuiqing held back for a long time and did not dare to check it. In the end, Zhou Ruiyang couldn't see it and forced him to check it.

Lu Chuiqing opened the results page with trembling fingers, and two of them passed smoothly, and the one he was least sure of was barely passed in terms of passing marks.

That night, Lu Chuiqing ran around the playground until her bones were twitching, and her muscles were burning hot and painful.He finally lay on his back on the turf of the playground, exhaling the most relaxed breath in the past few years.

In the past two years, when he was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to cry, and when he doubted his ability and suffered from insomnia all night, he didn't have to deliberately maintain his figure, and the whole person kept losing weight.

After he got married, he tried twice, but the successive failures almost knocked down his self-confidence and humbled him into the dirt.However, he finally did it, not for Chen Yuan, not for anyone else, just for his own future.

After obtaining the CPA certificate, in order to accumulate experience for future employment, Lu Chuiqing first went to the well-known domestic accounting firm Pu Qin for an internship.

Lu Chuiqing usually wears T-shirts and jeans, and hardly prepares a set of commuting clothes for herself.It just so happened that Zhou Ruiyang also had the idea of ​​buying a suit, so the two went shopping together this weekend.

Lu Chuiqing will have to go to the second-gender store soon, the glandular collar he has been using for almost three years now, and the power consumption is getting faster and faster, so it's time to get a new one.

Omega does not have to wear a neck ring anytime and anywhere every day. Whether to wear it or not depends on the difference in the concentration of pheromone secretion by each person.Lu Chuiqing's susceptibility period is four months. Usually, his pheromone is relatively weak most of the time, and occasionally it is relatively strong. At this time and ten days before and after the susceptibility period, he must wear a neck ring.

Lu Chuiqing usually uses a functional rechargeable electronic neck ring. The electronic neck ring can be used to block the overflow of pheromones, and can also release soothing agents to relieve the symptoms of the susceptible period. Wear for ten hours a day at pheromone concentrations.

There are various types of neck rings, including those for home use and commuting, as well as non-functional decorative or fun neck rings. This kind of neck ring is not electronic. It is the same as what clothes a person wears. Or to block the effect of pheromone, you can wear it according to your personal interests at any time.

Electronic neck rings for commuting are generally thin and light, require a longer standby time than ordinary ones, and generally cost more than 2000 yuan.Lu Chuiqing's family conditions can only be considered average, and he is more concerned about money. He was reluctant to buy such an expensive one when he was in school. Now that he is about to enter the internship period, he has to reward himself to buy a slightly higher-end one.

The two chatted while walking along the pedestrian street, Zhou Ruiyang asked: "Do you plan to go to the office in the future?"

During this period of time, Lu Chuiqing has considered a lot, and now she has a very clear plan: "I still prefer to enter the enterprise."

"What type? Investment bank? Securities? Fund? Insurance?"

Lu Chuiqing said firmly: "Zhongming Fund."

Zhongming Fund is one of the giants in the domestic private fund industry. Whether it is fund raising, fund sales or asset management, it has performed very well in recent years and can be regarded as one of the leaders in the fund industry.

The working environment and employee treatment of Zhongming Fund are very good in the entire financial industry, which also means that Zhongming's employment standards are extremely strict.

"It's not easy to enter Zhongming." Zhou Ruiyang said with emotion, "I heard from a senior sister of Tianhong Fund that she always wanted to go to Zhongming, but she was on the second side, but she was rejected, and then she took a step back. Went to Tianhong. Zhongming seems to be recruiting from the society basically, and the proportion of school recruiting is not large."

Lu Chuiqing sighed and said, "So you can't work hard."

Zhou Ruiyang smiled and said: "It's very difficult, but buddy, I believe in you, you are better than my senior sister. I heard that Zhongming still values ​​certificates with high gold content, and your gold plating is really worth it. "

"Come on, stop praising me."

"By the way, Fang Jiaming, the boss of Zhongming, do you know who his nephew is?"

Fang Jiaming's name is basically known to anyone who is in the fund investment industry, but Lu Chuiqing really never thought about knowing his family relationship, how could he know who his eldest nephew is, and asked casually, "Who is it?"

"Xiao Zhan, I don't know if you recognize him or not." Zhou Ruiyang said, "The founder and chairman of Value Scan."

Lu Chuiqing was taken aback for a moment, she was quite surprised, and said in shock, "Xiao Zhan? Really?"

"It's true. I was bored and checked in Tianyan before. Xiao Zhan is also a shareholder of Zhongming Fund, and his shareholding ratio is not small." Zhou Ruiyang said, "By the way, how do you know Xiao Zhan?"

Now the names of Xiao Zhan and Value Scan are far from being as popular as they will be in the fund financing circle five years later, but just a few days after the end of the Spring Festival next year, Value Scan was released, and the stock price has skyrocketed in the past two years. The value survey report of Qifu Foods, a food white horse stock, more than doubled, pointed out that Qifu Foods falsely reported its operating income and misled consumers, and the entire market was greatly shaken.

The short-selling behavior came too suddenly, and the stock price of Qifu Foods plummeted all the way, suffering an unprecedented setback.After the thunderstorm of the white horse stock, the broader market of the food stock industry represented by it also continued to decline.

Qifu Foods urgently announced the suspension of trading for rectification. Although it later resumed trading, after being swept away by the value scan, market expectations for it plummeted, so that the stock price in the next four years was quite sluggish, and it has never been successful.

Since then, the financial world has known Xiao Zhan's name.

Some people say that he has a vicious vision, and a large number of financial bloggers represented by small stockholders yell at him as a capital leech, sucking the blood of the market, and even his "conspiracy to retaliate against the boss of Qifu" is forced by the stock price dive. The sad and indignant remarks of the stockholders who cried without tears.

However, it is undeniable that there have indeed been serious problems in the internal operations of Qifu, and short-selling institutions have always been the existence of "flies that do not bite seamless eggs".

After the Qifu Foods short-selling incident, the reputation of Value Scan quickly increased, and Xiao Zhan became a big love-hate figure in the financial street.

Needless to say hate, love is to love his vision, demeanor and means.

Moreover, Lu Chuiqing vaguely remembered that within two years after Qifu was shorted, Xiao Zhan personally acquired a small PE/VC institution that was on the verge of bankruptcy due to several consecutive IPO failures. After the acquisition, Xiao Zhan Although he does not serve as the CEO of the investment company, he is indeed the actual controller and largest shareholder of the company.

Later, that investment company was also revived by his executive team, and its revenue continued to rise.

I recalled what I saw and felt back then in my mind. Although Lu Chuiqing was already a full-time wife at that time, he only learned about these things because he was bored at home, but he was a student of accounting and finance after all, and he was still deeply impressed.

Lu Chuiqing replied: "I've heard of it."

"If you really join Zhongming Fund in the future, you might have a chance to meet him." Zhou Ruiyang continued, "But Fang Jiaming is also a person with a lot of stories. It is said that he dotes on his nephew more than his own son Fang Shaojun. It’s too much, as if Xiao Zhan is his own. But Fang Shaojun has such good resources and contacts, and it’s nothing special to open a Junyuan wealth for so many years, which is really unreasonable.”

While talking, Zhou Ruiyang's heart of gossip came, and he said mysteriously: "Do you think there is something wrong with this? The Xiao family and the Fang family are both wealthy families in the financial world, right? There is always something wrong with this kind of family. It’s a secret that can’t be told to outsiders, right? You see, Xiao Zhan’s father came from an investment bank, and his uncle is a leader in the fund industry. I heard that he has two younger brothers and sisters who have developed well in the financial industry. Born in them This kind of family really takes a lot less than others. Backed by such a large capital and connections, I think as long as people are not brain-dead, they will be [-]% successful."

Lu Chuiqing: "How do you know so clearly..."

Zhou Ruiyang has no other hobbies, but he likes to read gossip in the financial and economic circles.

But what he said is indeed correct, most people do not have such a broad road.However, because of the existence of such a gap, ordinary people have to work harder to catch up.

At this time, Lu Chuiqing hadn't thought at all that Xiao Zhan in the future would be far more than a person he could only understand through financial and financial information.
