While waiting for the released mission to produce results, Yan Ruxin could only wait patiently no matter how impatient she was.

One night during this period, she stopped by a restaurant in Manhattan.

This is a membership-only restaurant, and ordinary people need to make an appointment more than a month in advance before they can get a suitable seat.

But today, the person who met Yan Ruxin obviously had enough energy or channels, so that within a day after she finished talking with her, she could sit in the best and most private seat in this restaurant, enjoying the VVIP-level service of chef and restaurant manager.

"Ms. Mellon, please check this document. If you have no comments, please sign your name where the yellow sign is posted. After that, you will be able to receive a trust fund of 5500 million U.S. dollars."

Catherine Russell was about 30 years old, a petite *blond with a clean cropped haircut.

She has a beautiful appearance and good looks, but her demeanor is a bit cold like a queen's. After Tong Yan Ruxin said this casually, she buried her head in the dishes in front of her.

Compared to Yan Ruxin, she was obviously much more interested in the lamb chops on the plate.

Yan Ruxin was not angry at such an attitude.

She has met all kinds of people in her long career in investment banking.

Usually, the more talented and spiritual a person is, the more rebellious their attitude will be. She really appreciates these "weird" people, at least it is much more interesting than facing the same philistine businessman covered in money.

After Yan Ruxin read all the words and sentences in the document, she raised her eyebrows and pushed the document back.

She asked unceremoniously: "Miss Russell, I think the trust fund I think should be given to me in the form of cash deposits. What does the $2500 million worth of real estate on it mean? Do you want me to do this in the financial crisis?" When it is serious, do you want to find a place to sell the luxury house?"

Catherine Russell frowned after hearing this. She opened the file and her expression became serious...

"First of all, on behalf of myself and Baker McKinsey, I would like to apologize to you. This project was only handed over to me yesterday, that is, 3 minutes before I contacted you on the phone. I am not responsible for this area myself, and For some reason, I'm currently in the process of resigning...

I'll admit I didn't even glance at the document, sorry. " Catherine Russell apologized bluntly.

In her body, Yan Ruxin could see the arrogance unique to a highly capable elite, but at the same time, she could also see some deep guilt hidden in her eyes.

It was probably because she felt that her personal emotions had affected her work, and it was very likely... this was her last job.

She made several phone calls on the spot.

When she was on the phone, her demeanor was quite different from the foodie image she showed just now.

Yan Ruxin could easily tell from these few phone calls that the woman named Catherine Russell in front of her was extremely professional and talented in the business field.

It seems that her previous status in Baker & McKinsey must not be low.

Baker & McKinsey is a top law firm specializing in corporate mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcy and restructuring. When Yan Ruxin was still at Morgan Stanley, she also had a lot of cooperation and contact with it.

After putting down the phone, Catherine replied: "This project is an act of the Mellon Family Trust Fund. My suggestion is that you can reject this agreement and reserve the right to sue the Mellon Family Trust Fund. If necessary, you can ask a lawyer to Represent this case and pursue legal rights for you."

She turned her head to think for a while, and felt that the crisis had been properly handled, so she buried her head in the lamb chops again.

"What if I want to entrust you?" Yan Ruxin asked.

"I'm sorry, I mentioned earlier that I'm currently in a state of resignation and handover, and I don't think I'm suitable." Catherine refused without raising her head.

Yan Ruxin smiled brightly: "No, what I mean is, since you have left Baker McKinsey, do you want to come to my place?"

Catherine was also surprised when she heard that, she looked up at Yan Ruxin in amazement.

Yan Ruxin smiled at her faintly.

"...If I'm not wrong, you don't even know who I am, right? Today is just the first time we met. I don't know how rich n-generations like you find employees. Do you rely on your mood? It's the first time I've met something so casual." Catherine curled her lips, mocking Yan Ruxin in the slightest.

Then he spoke very quickly at Yan Ruxin.

"And...first, you can't afford me. Do you know how much my annual salary is at McKinsey? It's definitely much higher than you imagined.

Second, do you know why I left McKinsey?If you don't even do a review, aren't you afraid of attracting traitors to the company?

Third, I climbed all the way from the mailroom to the position of partner. I am tired and have decided to switch careers to be a gourmet. Lawyer is no longer in the scope of my future career plan, understand? "

When Mei Mi didn't expect it, Yan Ruxin was neither surprised nor offended, she just smiled gently.

She smiled and said warmly: "Gourmet? What a wonderful career plan, I think you and my partner probably have a lot to talk about... That's great, you can probably integrate into me soon team."

"..." Catherine stared dumbfounded at this descendant of the Mellon family who was full of self-talk skills, she, the recognized queen of poisonous tongue, didn't know how to answer her words.

Didn't this lady who thought of it come out, didn't she hear the rejection in her words, as well as her sarcasm?

"I don't know if you know ya capital, this is my company that specializes in investing in films or film companies." Yan Ruxin gently changed the topic to business.

"...Yacapital is your company?" Catherine looked a little surprised, but in the next second, she felt embarrassed, and immediately changed to a disinterested expression and commented, "The first acquisition was pretty clean, but the new company didn't Fame can only be used in a sniper method, which cannot be repeated."

"When I first established this company, it coincided with the outbreak of the financial crisis and there was no place to raise funds, and I had no other resources at hand, but... you should know that the current form is different, right? There are more things to play with ~" Yan Ruxin winked at Catherine with an expression that could only be understood but could not be expressed in words.

"This has nothing to do with me, you don't have to explain it to me. I also advise you, please don't talk about this kind of company secrets in public, especially if you are sitting opposite a stranger." Catherine disagreed said stiffly.

Yan Ruxin looked at the female lawyer in front of her who was seriously advising her, and found that she had a good eye for people, and this time was no exception.

"Oh...thanks for the reminder, I will pay attention next time~" Yan Ruxin gave her a gentle smile, and then said seriously, "I may not be able to pay you too high a salary, I want to use your ability and value to McKinsey's annual salary is at least over a million dollars, and I can't afford it.

But I can give you 5% of ya's shares. Although ya is not listed, its valuation has already exceeded 5 million, and [-]% is not a lot, and the prospect is very good~ But the price is that you have to work for me in the future . "

Catherine looked at her with furrowed eyebrows, and there was a moment of silence.

She couldn't figure it out, really couldn't figure it out...

Why does this young rich n-generation girl in front of her trust her so much, a lawyer who is about to be kicked out by McKinsey?

Especially when her attitude was still very bad, and when she handled such a simple case, something went wrong.

It seems that she really wants to teach this innocent Mellon girl what it means not to trust others easily. Does this girl naively think that everyone she meets in this world is a good person?

Catherine didn't realize that she seemed to have unconsciously considered the problem from Yan Ruxin's perspective.

And if Yan Ruxin knew that the cool-looking and worry-free female lawyer in front of her saw herself as an innocent girl ignorant of the world, she would probably sigh that Angela's face was so tender, and her acting skills were better than that of that gentleman's. Under the spur, I really made great progress.

"...If you just sympathize with me because I'm about to leave, there's no need for that. I don't want to work at McKinsey a long time ago." Catherine said coldly, her eyes flashing with resistance.

"Pfft... I didn't expect you to have such a cute personality. How could you think that I was sympathizing with you?" Yan Ruxin couldn't laugh or cry, feeling that she had really met another strange thing.

"..." Catherine looked at the girl in front of her with a dark face, she was overjoyed, and her smile was very imageless.

"...cough, um, I think you misunderstood, I don't run a charity organization." Yan Ruxin stopped laughing, tears welled up in her eyes, she looked at Catherine, "My company will have Many plans have already been planned, and the investment and business transactions that will cause huge losses if they are terminated halfway, but I really have one thing that I have to do recently... This is related to a friend who is very important to me, But I don't want to give up my business."

"So... what you value is my ability?" Catherine's emotions were a little complicated. She looked at Yan Ruxin with an unclear expression, clenched her fists, and tried her best to restrain her trembling body.

"Of course, your ability is of great use value to me. It just so happens that you appeared in front of me at this time, and you have already resigned from McKinsey. This is simply a gift from heaven." Yan Ruxin tapped the table with her finger, looking like a mastermind behind the scenes *OSS, "I'm not a sympathetic person, you'll know it after working with me for a long time."

"I..." Catherine still hesitated a little.

"Admit it. Although you love food, you prefer challenging jobs, right? A career as a foodie is not suitable for you." Yan Ruxin seems to have seen her shadow in Catherine, but her luck is better than Catherine. Just a few, no, I can’t say that, Catherine, who met her, was very lucky...

Yan Ruxin suddenly thought of something, and said: "...I know a Mr. Chef with top skills. If you are lucky... maybe you can still meet him."

"But I'm not very familiar with movies and art. I haven't even watched a few movies. It may take a long time to adapt..." Catherine finally struggled.

"Oh, you don't have to worry about the movie part. Let's go to the movies together when we have time, but it's good that you are mainly in charge of the commercial part. You know, those things. You can change the soup without changing the medicine..." Yan Ruxin rushed She blinked.

"I'm currently in contact with director Nolan and his wife. I want to invest in his Hinckley film production company, but he obviously has concerns...

After all, his production company is equivalent to a family business, and he also has to consider whether the addition of foreign capital will affect his personal creation. Your first task is to make them nod.

Originally, it would be better for me to do this matter, but I really can't spare the time..."

Catherine picked up the cup, she was silent for a long time, even Yan Ruxin couldn't see what her final answer would be.

Maybe ten minutes had passed.

Seeing her, Yan Ruxin nodded slightly when she saw her, looked up at Yan Ruxin and said, "Okay, I'll join."

"Haha... Welcome, my new partner." Yan Ruxin let out a sigh of relief and laughed.

Yan Ruxin herself did not expect that the party that was originally just to sign a contract to receive trust funds would lead her to meet such a person.

Regardless of ability, character, professional ethics... They are all top choices, and what's even better is that she just left her job, and she seems to be very unhappy in McKinsey... This link is intertwined, and each link is incomparable. coincide.

It is really not an exaggeration to describe it as a windfall!
