Chapter 010
The Girl Scout cookie business is doing just fine for now.
At the very least, Yan Ruxin had the money to buy the plane ticket.
A week later, on Saturday, Yan Ruxin flew to New York.
Los Angeles is the most prosperous city on the west coast of the United States, and New York is located on the easternmost coast of the United States.
A total of three time zones were crossed, and she took a flight of more than five hours to arrive.
When she walked out of Kennedy Airport, it was already past five in the afternoon, Yan Ruxin took a taxi and went to her sister's office first.
Yan Ruyue's yry law firm is located in the center of Manhattan, where land is very expensive. From the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the office, you can have a panoramic view of Central Park. You can walk to Times Square in two steps. The offices in the same building are all offices of one of the largest companies in the United States.
This is one of the busiest areas in New York.
Yan Ruyue's office is different from ordinary law firms. There is no front desk lady, no assistant brother, and there is no other person who looks like a lawyer except her.
Seven or eight black-clothed men in suits and leather shoes and sunglasses were lined up on both sides. Each of them had big arms and round waists, with pimples pinned to their waists.
The other office doesn't look like a law firm, but a detective agency's office. There are wiring diagrams of various clues on the wall, and some whiteboards with different photos on them...
"You go out first." Yan Ruyue ordered, and the strong men filed out obediently, and they were the last ones, closing the door behind them.
The sound insulation of the room is very good, and the facilities in the room can be seen at a glance. With the shutters closed, there is no room for any information leakage.
"Sister, you look so young, I'm too embarrassed to call you that." Yan Ruyue teased lightly, her gorgeous face was expressionless, and her cold and glamorous temperament would often cause internal injuries all over her body.
While handing various documents to Yan Ruxin for signature, she reached out her hand curiously to touch Yan Ruxin's seaweed-like sugar-brown hair, and pinched her other parts after a while.
"I think your name is quite smooth, and you're not at all embarrassed." Yan Ruxin raised her eyebrows, and obediently let her sister do things, and then laughed at herself: "I've lost my job and identity now. He also became a poor student, lived in a dilapidated apartment, and had to take exams every semester..."
"But I think you are in a good mood, and your complexion is much better. It's not like before, 24 hours a day, and you are so thin that you are like lightning." Yan Ruyue turned her eyes to her sister who was nearly ten years younger. circle, finally staying on her white and healthy apple muscles.
Yan Ruyue straightened her face, and said calmly, "You should be aware of the situation on Wall Street. Lehman is no longer viable. Merrill Lynch and Bear Stearns are also negotiating prices for acquisitions. Except for Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, few investment banks can support it." Go on, even these two companies are about to collapse without liquid funds under the condition of high debt. If you have a car accident at this time, you can not only get the insurance money, but also the company's compensation, and the compensation of the party responsible for the accident. You don't have to worry about it About the company... Maybe you are the luckiest person."
"Lucky? Maybe..." Yan Ruxin shrugged, but she didn't show too much surprise, "The risk control management department has already calculated that almost all companies on Wall Street have broken through the warning value many times. But you know, as long as there is money to be made, those people will not care about these risks. High risks represent high returns. As long as ridiculously high leverage can bring benefits, no one will think about controlling risks. There is a way to monitor ... this is Wall Street now."
People on Wall Street also have different types of work, and the investment bank that Yan Ruxin is in charge of is only one part of it, and it is also one of the departments with the highest quality requirements.
But most of the functions do not require a high IQ and a strong ability to be competent, as laymen think.
Some stockbrokers who know more about a stock on the phone are just a mouth that can turn white into black, and they don't even know what they are selling;
The analysts in the office who seem to be pointing the country also rely on models that have already been established, and complete the part that basically does not require brains;
This is especially true for traders, who have billions or tens of billions of funds in their hands. They look awesome, but in fact what they do is just mechanical labor according to the script...
Most people are not as handsome as people imagined, it's just a sense of mystery deliberately created by the financial industry.
Is the map gun too big?
Anyway, that's it.
Of course, as a career that people all over the world yearn for, internal competition is still quite fierce.
So after experiencing the stock market crash, financial crisis, etc. after layoffs, those who have not been invited to drink coffee by hr still have at least two brushes.
Yan Ruxin is no longer a member of Damo, and has even changed her identity, so even the confidentiality agreement can no longer restrict her words and deeds.
It's easy~
Yan Ruxin said: "Do you think we didn't contribute to the downfall of these investment banks?
We have been thinking about them for a long time. In the past few months, we have been planning the acquisition of Bear Stearns, Lehman, and Merrill Lynch. Marcos at Goldman Sachs is also working on these projects. Do you think Goldman Sachs did not suppress them? share price?
Heh, on this point, we basically have a cooperative relationship with Goldman Sachs, which is tacitly understood by everyone. "
She casually told her sister what happened in the capital market during this period.
She said: "But now... both of us are dead. I read in the newspaper that Leander Tate seems to be replacing me, and Fern Pullman is replacing Marcos. Hey, the two of them probably It will be a headache."
The two people whose names were mentioned are also among the top investment bankers in the company.
Originally, their workload was already heavy, and taking over the work they left behind was enough for them to be busy for days and nights without getting off work.
Hey, why is she gloating so much?
Being a student is really a blessing, she can sleep eight hours a day now~
Yan Ruyue took out a folder from the filing cabinet behind her, and said, "I don't know if they have a headache, I just know you're going to have a headache now."
"What?" Yan Ruxin took the document, opened it and asked in confusion, "What is this? Is it your investigation into the car accident?"
"It's not only your car accident, but also Marcos' shooting case. Overnight, the big bulls of two world-class investment banks died one after another. It's still such a sensitive moment. Not only I am investigating, but the FBI also listed it as a matter. Cases related to federal security." Yan Ruyue seemed to have internal channels.
Yan Ruxin opened the file.
"This is your car accident investigation. The ingredients of sleeping pills were found in the coffee machine in your office, and Aaron Durst's car was also tampered with. Someone remotely hacked the car's braking system and controlled the car to drive in the opposite direction. , crashed into your car." Yan Ruyue explained succinctly while she was reading the materials.
"So I was murdered?" Yan Ruxin frowned.
One page of the information was taken by the driving recorder on her car at that time. Through the windshield, the terrified expression of Aaron Durst in the opposite car can be seen.
"I don't know if the murderer chose it at random. Neither the police nor the FBI can find any contact between you and Aaron Durst." Yan Ruyue added, "The murderer has not been found yet, and the police are investigating the situation in your company. enemies and competitors."
Yan Ruxin smiled: "I'm afraid it's not just about investigating the murder case, it's also good to take the opportunity to conduct an internal investigation on Damo."
"How can it be that simple? Based on your boss's family power, they probably can only find out some open secrets." Yan Ruyue shook her head, continued to point to the next file, and winked ambiguously, "Ma You should have heard about the Coase case, but there is one thing you definitely don't know."
"Oh?" Yan Ruxin raised her eyebrows, opened the file, and saw a few photos.
This is a photo that the police did not disclose to the media. The content of the photo is a secret room.
There is a very high-end computer in the secret room, but it can be seen that both the host computer and the display screen have been scrapped.
"This is the hidden secret room in Marcos' home. It took professionals a day and a night to decipher this secret room. Even so, no useful information was obtained after deciphering it. All information has been self-destructed. Even all electronic The instrument can't find the source." Yan Ruyue said.
Yan Ruxin looked at the next picture, it seemed to be another secret room.
This secret room looks even more powerful, like a small arsenal, with a wide variety of firearms, which she has only seen in movies.
"Marcos's house is on the top floor. This is a hidden space in the mezzanine on the top floor. It took a long time to find the hidden mechanism hidden in the chandelier and fireplace and open it after scanning and detecting the whole house. "Yan Ruyue said, "But the people in the laboratory said that none of these firearms have been fired, and cold weapons have no blood reaction."
The next few photos are photos of Marcos when his body was first discovered.
Yan Ruxin looked at the photo of the dead body in a daze.
Max Christie in her impression was a typical German man.
He is well-dressed, wearing an elegant suit, hand-made custom-made leather shoes, and combing his hair meticulously on the back... His facial features are deep, his nose is high, and his thin lips are always pursed. He can only provoke her positively, or gain an advantage in the game When it was time, it would evoke a subtle arc at her, making people itch with anger.
He is rigorous and punctual, Yan Ruxin must make a strict timeline plan when facing him, otherwise she will not be able to face him in a targeted manner.
He is also a paranoid, weird Shenjingbing, a gangster, known as the "Wall Street Devil", but even though Yan Ruxin often complains about him, he has to admit that he is a handsome and top-notch Shenjingbing.
This powerful financial figure on Wall Street is now wearing a loose silk bathrobe, reclining on the sofa, his short brown hair is a little messy, and there is a very clear bullet hole between his eyebrows, and the burst wound is mixed with blood. , making his entire handsome face present a cruel but enchanting strange beauty.
Yan Ruxin's heart trembled, she froze all of a sudden, and it took two seconds for her to react.
She sighed, put down the photo, turned around and asked, "You mean, Marcos is a..."
Undercover?spy?agent?mercenary?killer?
She suddenly opened her mind.
She never expected that the big financial encounter with her who had been fighting against her for so long in the project would even have a hidden identity!
This hidden identity is actually so dangerous!
She couldn't help recalling that in the past, she had tripped him up countless times behind his back, launched a public opinion offensive, broke out all kinds of scandals and gossip to hype, suppressed or boosted the stock price, instigated rebellion to win over shareholders, or used various conspiracies... …
She can still live well until now, and she was not shot and collapsed by Marcos, God bless~
Yan Ruyue said meaningfully: "It is still impossible to determine his real identity, but the CIA has also been dispatched."
"CIA? This matter seems to be more complicated." Yan Ruxin frowned, thinking.
At the very least, Yan Ruxin had the money to buy the plane ticket.
A week later, on Saturday, Yan Ruxin flew to New York.
