Chapter 63: [Building 85, Broad, New York]

圣诞节 After Christmas in the West, Luo Sheng started his trip to North America. The company's relocation was finalized without much attention. After the trip came back, the company was mostly settled in Sioux City.
Luo Sheng chose Wall Street on his first trip. During this trip, there were six company members who came with him. Qin Weimu was also among them. Only she had gone abroad, and the others were young. This is the first time that the members of the start-up team have gone abroad. Bringing them here is a way for Luo Sheng to cultivate talents in-house. The purpose of bringing them over is to broaden the international horizon, which is popularly long-sighted.
Luo Sheng, a digger, won't be vague, but he also attaches importance to cultivating talents in-house.
Speaking of it, if Qin Weimu did not choose the profession of a lawyer, but went to a high salary, she would most likely appear on Wall Street. Goldman Sachs, Da Mo, Merrill Lynch and other big investment banks have once offered her offers. Knowing that an internship at Goldman Sachs has more than 90,000 job applications each month, the admission rate is only about 2%, and other major investment banks are almost the same. About 90% of the offers are invited to join the job.
Uh ...
罗 On December 28th, Luo Sheng came to Manhattan. After turning over the jet lag, he took a rest day and went to Goldman Sachs headquarters.
Before coming to New York, Luo Sheng had already greeted Meng Qiu, the head of Goldman Sachs Group in China. This time, seeking financing was a bit different, because the company still has relatively sufficient funds, and currently has 280 million yuan. Right and right, under normal circumstances, the Series A financing has received such a large investment, and will not be financing until the first half of next year.
But for Luo Sheng, his strategic layout of the company in the following, the funds are still not enough, and wanting to let investors play on him to throw money, it is more energy-consuming and verbal than the previous few financings.
At 16:00, Luo Sheng came to the foot of the Goldman Sachs headquarters building. His temporary assistant looked at the door a little bit suddenly: "This is the Goldman Sachs headquarters? The degree of simplicity is really beyond the imagination of anybody, anyway, it is completely different from what I think ... "
Wu Qin Weimu briefly explained: "The Goldman Sachs headquarters is famous for having no logo on the outside."
Its simple brown headquarter building is located at 85 Broad Street, New York, but this "Building 85" is well-known around the world. It has been promoted to Goldman Sachs, the world's largest investment bank, in the new century. You will not know its name, this place has always been a place where investment banking elites are diligently seeking work. Being a partner at Goldman Sachs means having countless wealth.
Luo Luosheng walked in, but was quickly stopped by a white man who came to him. At first glance, there was a sudden contempt in the hearts of Asian faces.
"Sorry sir, you need to wear a formal dress to get in."
The white man who came to stop him said that his behavior was quite gentleman-like, but he was really disdainful of the Asian face deep in his heart, but his expression and behavior did not reveal a little of his true thoughts. Working at one of Wall Street's largest investment banking firms requires EQ and IQ.
Luo Luosheng came without wearing a formal attire, and he said calmly, "I have an appointment with Mr. Henry Paulson, and I am here to make an appointment."
The white man thought he had heard it wrong. Henry Paulson, known as one of the most influential financial masters in the United States, is also the current head of Goldman Sachs Group, and is truly a giant on Wall Street.
Just when this white man was wrong, someone suddenly came to understand Wei. It was Meng Qiu, the head of Goldman Sachs in China. He talked to the white man, and the other person looked at Luo Sheng again, and then left.
At this time, Meng Qiu and Luo Sheng shook a hand, communicating in Mandarin, and said with a slight smile: "General Luo, please, here. Frankly speaking, although I work for Goldman Sachs, this time if it were not for you, I would not come to Manhattan Do n’t look at these people who are extremely well-educated, but these people look down on our faces in their hearts. On Wall Street, the people here are hypocritical except for the true feelings about the US dollar bill. "
Luo Luosheng smiled and didn't answer, but added a little favor to Meng Qiu, but that's all. As it is, here is Wall Street.
Meng Qiu once again kindly reminded: "I have to remind you, Mr. Luo, you may face a lot of difficulties later, Henry specially invited a lot of reporters, Henry Paulson, what do you say? , On Wall Street and in the world's financial circles are people with a terrifying influence. You need to be mentally prepared. "
Luo Sheng felt a moment in his heart and said calmly, "Thank you."
当然 Of course, he is no stranger to the name Henry Paulson, because as long as he understands the subprime mortgage crisis, the name cannot be bypassed. He not only knows Henry Paulson, but also John Paulson.
After entering the elevator, Meng Qiu stopped talking, and he took the elevator to the top floor. He also pinched sweat for Luo Sheng. Such a character would feel nervous even if he saw him, especially this This battle, the invisible pressure is even greater.
However, Meng Qiu was also quite surprised because he found that Luo Sheng's calm and confident expression never disappeared. This young man did have an extraordinary side.
I can only describe it like this.
Uh ...
The building of the Goldman Sachs headquarters is quite beautiful, and the geographical environment is also very good. From the physical environment, it can be said to be impeccable. At night, the 11th floor overlooks the western sunset and the Statue of Liberty are also working in this building. An experience.
同时 But at the same time, crowded more than 10,000 Goldman Sachs employees in the forty-story building, people feel that this place will always be busy and busy.
However, even at the same time at Goldman Sachs, the difference between people at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is almost greater than the difference between people and dogs.
If the employees here are not occupied with all their thinking, they have a little bit of time to observe everything around them, but most of the time this will not be the case. If so, they will feel that they are only available in an extremely huge machine. One of the gears was pushed and operated by thousands of other gears, and even if they left, a new gear came up immediately.
Moreover, due to the complexity of the investment banking business, an employee randomly encounters another employee at Goldman Sachs. More than 50% of them may not be able to chat casually. For example, one belongs to the investment banking department and the other belongs to the trading department. It is to apply, and there is a 49% possibility that the two people cannot understand each other's work and life at all, maybe they are not interested at all.
The people who work here are actually very lonely. With more than 10,000 people, only a dozen colleagues and a few bosses can really speak, but this is also determined by the nature of the industry, and most investment banks are basically the same in this regard. .
After stepping out of the elevator, Meng Qiu led Luo Sheng to a conference hall inside the building.
As soon as Wu entered the interior, Luo Sheng saw twenty or thirty eyes focused on him. Among them came the well-known North American media such as the New York Times and Bloomberg.
When a group of foreigners present at the meeting saw him, many people were surprised, especially the reporters of several media organizations.
Meng Qiu returned to the position of the Goldman Sachs side. Here, even he was speechless. The people sitting at the middle conference table were real gangsters. Meng Qiu could not help but secretly squeezed sweat for Luo Sheng again. This battle can't be seen by a young man under the age of twenty.
Uh ...
