Chapter 345: The Generous Boss

After hearing Mike Aller's introduction, Yang Jing understood what kind of person he was talking about.

Such people usually have high professional ethics and lack of business ability, but such people often don’t know how to adapt. It is absolutely fine to let such people do what they are proficient in, but if they become the leader of a company, they may not be able to catch up.

A company's leader does not necessarily have to have good business skills, nor does he need good professional qualities, but he must have good communication skills.

What does a leader do? He is a management work. Since he wants to do management, he will inevitably deal with the people below. Especially when dealing with conflicts between people below, the manager needs to have an extremely clever social skills. People with a stubborn mind often do the wrong things with kindness.

Yang Jing shook his head and said, "Mike, David is not suitable for being CEO. He can become the CIO of the company (chief investment officer)."

Mike Aller smiled and gestured to Yang Jing with a big thumbs up, "Boss, I actually mentioned David to you just because I wanted him to serve as CIO. With him, there is absolutely no problem with the investment actions of the Dragon Fund. However, David is still far behind you."

Yang Jing accepted this little flattery calmly and smiled: "David Anderson can serve as the chief investment officer of the Dragon Fund, but I still have to direct some important investment actions."

"Haha, boss, of course, you are the boss. With you personally taking action, we will definitely be able to kill everyone."

Yang Jing waved his hand and said, "We won't talk about investment today. Are there anyone there?"

"Well, there is another one. If this old guy is willing to join us, it will definitely be of great help to our Dragon Fund."

Yang Jing nodded and gestured to Mike Aller to continue.

"This old guy is older than me, a New Orleans native. I met him since he was in his thirties and has maintained a good relationship. The old guy's name is Henry Williams, who has served as the CHO (Chief Human Resources Officer) of Lehman Brothers. However, last year he unfortunately encountered a car accident, which caused an amputation of his right leg and has been at home since then."

"Are you amputated?" Yang Jing frowned.

"Boss, although Henry has amputated his legs, he has installed prosthetics and walks in his pants. He can hardly tell that there is something wrong with his legs."

"Then why didn't he go back to Lehman Brothers to continue working?"

Mike Aller said with a wry smile, "It was Lehman brothers who gave up Henry."

When Yang Jing heard this, he understood everything.

As the fourth largest investment bank in the United States, Lehman Brothers is still very strong. However, this company is a bit cold-blooded, especially when it comes to internal employees, which is famously cold-blooded in the circle.

Later, the subprime mortgage crisis, Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, and many people who came out of Lehman Brothers applauded and celebrated. This is enough to prove that Lehman Brothers did some shortcomings in some aspects.

Mike Aller looked at Yang Jing and said, "Boss, I hope you can invite Henry over. Maybe you don't know yet that Henry not only has a deep level of management, but also has very strong professional knowledge. In comparison, David is not even as good as Henry. Mr. Graham, you must know it very well?"

Yang Jing nodded, and of course he knew that Benjamin Graham, the economic master, respected as the father of securities analysis, had an unparalleled status in the global economic world, and the stock god Buffett was the master's disciple.

"Boss, there is one thing I have to tell you that when Henry was studying at Columbia University Business School, he studied under Mr. Graham with Warren Buffett. That's right, the Warren Buffett who controls Berkshire Hathaway."

This shocked Yang Jing. Although Warren Buffett is famous in the United States, he is far from the reputation of his richest man in the world in later generations. Moreover, Buffett is not nicknamed "Stock God", but this does not mean that Buffett is not good.

And Mr. Henry Williams is actually a brother of Buffett, who is taught by Master Benjamin Graham, and is able to serve as a CHO in a large investment bank like Lehman Brothers, which is enough to prove his ability.

Yang Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mike, Henry must be taken down as soon as possible. The position of the CEO of the Dragon Fund belongs to him. When you talk to him, you can explain the specific situation of the Dragon Fund to him, including the funds currently controlled by the Dragon Fund. Well, as for the origin of these funds, if he wants to know, you can also tell him, but you must sign a confidentiality agreement before you can say it."

"As for Mr. David Anderson, you can tell him that as long as he is willing to come over to serve as the chief investment officer of the Dragon Fund, the funds he can control will reach up to 5 billion US dollars! As long as he comes over to serve as the CIO of the Dragon Fund, there will be several major projects for him to operate immediately."

Hearing Yang Jing's words, Mike Aller said in a little shocked moment: "Boss, do you really want to tell Henry and David all these things? Are you not afraid..."

"Haha, there is nothing to be afraid of. In the past, the Dragon Fund was hidden behind the scenes, but now it still needs to be hidden behind the scenes. The only ones that appear in front of the stage are just the seven offshore companies. Of course, I said just now that whether it is Henry or David, if you want to know the situation of the Dragon Fund, you must sign a high-standard confidentiality agreement."

"Okay, boss, I know what to say to them."

"Well, if they are interested in joining the Dragon Fund, I will talk to them in person."

"Haha, boss, you probably underestimated the amount of funds in the Dragon Fund. Our Dragon Fund now has a huge amount of funds of more than $12 billion. Such a huge amount of funds is difficult for even those bank groups to take out. And we own cash, which is much higher than the value of real estate and securities. In the hands of people like Henry or David, the 12 billion dollar cash can do far more than the value of these funds themselves. They are professionally doing this. If both of them know that they can control such a large amount of funds, then they will definitely be willing to come and serve you."

"Well, then you can contact them first, the faster the better. I will be here these two days. If you have any news, please notify me immediately."

"Don't worry, boss, I won't let you wait for long." Mike Aller patted his chest and promised.

The fact is just as Mike Aller guaranteed that Yang Jing really didn't wait long.

The two of them decided on this matter in the morning, and Mike Aller immediately went out and didn't even eat lunch at home. As a result, the next morning, he brought back two middle-aged men, one tall and one short.

"Boss, let me introduce you to my old friend Mr. Henry Williams, and this is also my old friend Mr. David Anderson." In the spacious reception room, Mike Aller introduced the two people he brought to Yang Jing.

Judging from the complexion of skin, the tall one should have a bit of black blood, about forty-five or six years old, wearing a pair of brown myopia glasses, and he looked a bit old-fashioned. He was David Anderson.

The other person with a shorter head was a pure white man. If it weren't for Mike Aller's personal words, he was Henry Williams, Yang Jing couldn't believe that he was already a fifty-five-year-old.

Henry Williams is a little fat, but he is very well maintained. It seems that he is even younger than David Anderson around him, who is in his early forties, but in fact he is already in his sixties.

"Hey, hello, I'm Cole Smith, the owner of the Dragon Fund. You can call me Cole. Let's talk about it."

Henry and David are both people who have seen the world. They have both served as executives of large investment banks. Naturally, they are not restricted and sit on the sofa casually.

"Mr. Williams, Mr. Anderson, since you two have come here with Mike, you must have known something, right?"

"Just call me Henry (David)." The two of them said almost in unison.

"Well, Henry, David, I think you two should already know much about Dragon Fund?"

Henry and David looked at each other, and Henry nodded and said, "Yes, Cole, Mike had already talked to me and David about the Dragon Fund last night. David and I were interested in serving a fund that had such a huge amount of money."

Yang Jing smiled and said, "Okay, since that's the case, you two are both Mike's friends, so I'll just talk about some things. My Dragon Fund is an offshore fund established in the Cayman Islands. As for why it was established in the Cayman Islands, you two are elites in this field, I don't need to explain much, right?"

Henry and David both laughed.

"After several years of development, the Dragon Fund has now become an independent fund with more than $12 billion. The Dragon Fund is very pure and has no restrictions from outsiders. 98% of the shares belong to me, and the other 2% I just gave to Mike."

Hearing Yang Jing's words, Henry and David both looked at Mike Aller with envy.

"Of course, if you two are willing to join the Dragon Fund and make performances that satisfy me, I will not be stingy with the shares in my hands. To be honest, I have left 5% of the shares for the executives of the fund. If you two have the ability, then prove it to me and prove that you two have the ability to get the remaining 3% of the shares."

Yang Jing's words made Henry and David gasp.

The two of them really didn't expect that this mysterious boss would be so generous. According to the current assets of the Dragon Fund, it is close to 400 million US dollars. Even if they are half of them, each person has nearly 200 million US dollars. In 1986, 200 million US dollars was enough to make them the top richest man in the United States. Microsoft, which was listed on Nasdaq on March 13 this year, owned 44.8% of Microsoft's shares, totaling 11.14 million shares. Based on the calculation of $28 per share, Bill Gates' net worth is only $300 million!

Bill Gates is a new generation of rich people who are optimistic about by the whole United States.

Both of them are executives at Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers, but they have been busy there for more than ten years, and the money they earned is not as good as 5% of the value of the equity!
