Chapter 323 If you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish!
There is no love for no reason. In this world, no one will treat you well for no reason. Pure friendship is rarely seen when entering society.
Only when you are worthy of being with others will they date you.
Most of the interactions nowadays are purposeful, or because you have attractive traits, or what they want to get from you...
To put it bluntly, it is a matter of interest relations.
Although Arthur did not mind using his foresight to bring some soup and some people who were useful to him, he would never agree so easily.
If Arthur doesn't even consider it, and as soon as the other party makes a request, he will immediately agree to satisfy it. In the eyes of the other party, Arthur will not only become a fool and be ridiculed by them in private, but may even make the other party suspicious, doubting whether he is holding back some bad intentions and trying hard to cheat others, and not please them.
A truly smart person should be just right in his work and do things without any leakage. Not only does he gain real benefits, but he also gains a good reputation. Some people have a sharp tongue and a bad heart. Many help others, but none of them say they are good and have cultivated many enemies around them.
This is the way of the world!
To a certain extent, whether one understands the worldly ways determines whether a person's life will be prosperous or poor!
All successful people understand this without exception. They understand the essence of society and the rules of human interaction, know what the other party needs, and what the other party is thinking in their minds.
If you want to catch fish, you must think like a fish!
"Of course I understand that investment is risky, and there is no absolute profit in the capital market. Of course, we only take out a small part of the funds. We mainly believe in you, your abilities and your 'magic'. We are willing to invest in your future..."
I have to say that this person is very beautiful, but he can only be used to listen to it and cannot be taken seriously. "Of course, investment is risk of loss. Everyone knows this and everyone can bear it. As long as you don't lose all your money, hehe..."
The other party told Arthur in a joking tone that they could accept the losses, but they could not lose them all. Arthur sneered in his heart, but his face showed a very embarrassing bitterness.
"It's not that I intentionally refuse, but that I really can't guarantee that every investment will make money, and to be honest, I'm really a layman when it comes to investment.
It’s entirely based on luck and gambling mentality. For example, investing in gold, what I bet on is the loose monetary policies implemented by countries around the world, which will depreciate the currencies of various countries, especially the US dollar. Investing in gold is just my safe-haven choice. But I didn’t expect that I would bet right.
The simplest example is that I really invest in the stocks of the most famous companies in the United States, such as Apple, Guge, Amazon, etc., which everyone knows. It is no secret at all.
To be honest, I have always been worried, for fear that if I bet wrong, I will suffer heavy losses. I dare not choose other investments, such as foreign exchange futures, commodity futures, etc., and I don’t even dare to touch them.
Wealth comes too quickly, and I have been walking on thin ice, so I chose to invest in energy companies such as coastal power plants, because in my opinion, this kind of industry is the basis for making stable money..."
"Haha, I know, we all know all this." The old man lowered his head and smiled and looked at the wine glass that was shaking in his hand. He raised his hand, touched the wine glass with Arthur, took a sip, and looked at Arthur and said, "Luck is very magical. The thing about your investment in gold is really incredible.
I don't think I'll say that you should know that there are many people tracking your financial trends, hoping to follow you and make a profit, and I and them."
As he said that, the old man pointed to the two dukes who were looking at them in the distance, and looked at Arthur and continued, "I feel that instead of letting his investment consultants follow you without knowing the truth and making money, it is better to hand over the money to you directly and let you operate.
Of course, we will pay commissions and at the same time, we can also gain our friendship…”
A glimmer flashed in Arthur's eyes, and he said with surprise: "Dear, I value your friendship very much. Since you have said this to this extent and I will refuse again, it would be really rude.
I can promise to let my company help you operate, but I really can't guarantee a stable profit and I hope you understand this."
"Haha, of course, we can accept whether it is profit or loss, but the premise is that our funds must operate simultaneously with your own funds, right?" Lao Dian said with a very cunning smile.
"Of course!" Arthur naturally understood what these old foxes meant. If they really wanted to cheat them, then Arthur's funds would of course also suffer losses. In this way, if they really suffered losses in investment, they would recognize them.
"I don't know, the amount of this fund is..."
"Ten million pounds, including my five million pounds." The old man patted Arthur's shoulder very kindly and said sincerely: "I believe that your ability and luck will never disappoint me!"
"I try not to let you down." Arthur shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he couldn't help but curl his lips. He was worried that their group of people would take up a large amount of money to take over the enemy. Now it seems that their power is so great.
Well, it is not a problem to bring these people with you to drink soup. If he can take advantage of this opportunity to pull these old foxes into his own chariot and become his personal resources, then he will not be stingy with this effort.
What's more, he doesn't have to pay real benefits at all, it's just a ride-sharing ride.
Life is like a game. People who don’t understand the rules of the game will eventually die ugly. Only those who are proficient in applying the rules of the game can have fun, have fun, and play everything they want in the game!
It is necessary to build your own network. This is what Arthur values most in addition to making money. This group of people is undoubtedly the best start. Even if he is rushing to please, he will not miss this opportunity.
Because in this world, you only care whether you are reaching a certain height, not whether you are stepping on the shoulders of giants or on the garbage...
After the matter was settled, my elders became more enthusiastic and easy-going about Arthur. On the way back, they even joked with Arthur, saying that they would go to Bolin Manor to experience the life of the traditional nobles who had the opportunity to personally experience the complete preservation of the traditional nobles.
Although it was a joke, after all, the most complete aristocratic life was naturally the life of the old family. However, Arthur naturally would not miss this opportunity and happily sent a sincere invitation.
The old man agreed without hesitation and would arrange some time to visit Bolin Manor.
After the two met with everyone talking and laughing, except for the two dukes who knew what was going on, they were also very friendly and chatting with Arthur. The other noble members were surprised and surprised. Even Eddie and Edmund looked surprised and watched Arthur riding again and walking with the old dian and the two dukes.
The hunting knew it would end around 3:00 in the afternoon. Halfway through, everyone was eating barbecue and drinking wine in the wild, and really enjoying the fun of hunting day.
After finishing the hunting, he returned to the manor, and the servants began to get busy, swords and guns were put into the warehouse, and horses were put on the Nanshan Mountain. Arthur, a group of tired noble men, came to the garden of the manor to rest and prepare to enjoy afternoon tea in the wang room.
"Although the global economy has begun to recover and the worst period of the economy has passed, the economic situation is still full of difficulties. A research report by Gaosheng of the United States made a comparative analysis of the past six major financial crises. The basic view is that the stock market often rises sharply in the first year after the crisis, while the stock market's leverage range of the following year was significantly narrowed, roughly no more than 20%..."
Sitting around the same table with the old dian and two dukes, drinking black tea. When the three old foxes asked him about their views on the economy for the coming year, Arthur did not hesitate to throw out the theory that it was difficult to make money in 2010 to deepen the trust and value of the three old foxes.
