Chapter two hundred and ninety-three, the windfall of the interview

"So, we can calculate a very simple account."

Alice said: "My parents have been investing and financial management since they got married. They invested part of their salary in the stock market every year, but the result is also conceivable, of course there are profits and losses. Using big data to estimate, it is that until I was seven years old, the rate of return of the whole family to stock trading was about 7%. "

Leonard recorded carefully: "Seven percent is not a big number, so, what are the big data you mean by...?"

"The stock market has both profits and losses. If you make a profit, you will have to lose money. Multiply twelve months by 7 years and 365 days. In so many investments, you can still maintain a positive number. Hehe, Miss Olever, Fortune magazine can make such a questionnaire, or simply ask people on Wall Street. Just calculate it and you will understand that the total return rate of hundreds of stock market investments is positive, and it is still seven percent. What is this concept."

Undoubtedly, the current topic is the financial management view of Alice-Wang family. Leonard records this information very seriously. Because of the family environment, her daughter had the concept of investing and doing business at a very young age, so Alice officially entered the business world at the age of twelve. This is all very valuable information!

"Thank you, Alice, but I also noticed that you are talking about before the age of seven. In other words, our genius girl started to trade stocks for her parents when she was seven?"

This was a tentative question from Leonard, and Alice really nodded and said, "That's right, from seven to twelve years old, after I helped me with advice, the rate of return directly increased from seven percent to eleven percent. Well... Well, I know that many certificates will take until I get older, but in terms of knowledge, no one stopped me from reading various financial books, right?"

It was simply shocking and secret news. Leonard almost broke the baby pen and wrote down the symbol "11%" vigorously. She couldn't wait to ask: "Are the data you said true? I mean, these are all calculated by you, what about the data source? Mr. Wang and Ms., please forgive my suspicion. After all, what we are talking about now is going to be published in magazines, if it is..."

"If there are statistics, of course."

Sophie smiled and said, "Alice has just introduced me. As an accountant, I started professional investment and financial management when I first went to Harvard, and since then, I have developed the habit of recording every transaction. If you really need it, I can show you all the stock investment records from her birth to the age of twelve. Do you need it?"

Then do you still need to ask? Leonard definitely has ten thousand reasons to need it!

"That's so thankful!"

It was a surprise. She said to Sophie in surprise: "The record of personal stock trading for twelve years, and it is also a stable and high-yield type... Ms. Wang, I would like to ask, do you have any plans to publish a book? I can let the professional editors of Fortune carefully review it. If it is... this is simply a stock trading book for investors across the country!"

Not to mention Leonard, even Carder, as a photographer, became excited and immediately turned around the sofa like a monkey. The flash light flashed wildly, instantly taking countless close-ups for Sophie!

Just kidding, he is also a photography assistant hired by Fortune for many years. He has been working in this circle for twelve years, and the stock trading record with a yield of 7% to 11%. Who can not understand what this kind of thing is?

"No problem, absolutely no problem."

The whole family was amused by their exaggerated reactions. Sophie waved her hand and gave a positive answer: "But wait for these things to be said later. We are interviewing Alice now, aren't we?"

After being excited, the topic returned again. Leonard calmed down the excitement in his heart and prepared to record again: "In other words, helping parents trade stocks is your main achievement before the age of twelve. Then, the most classic example of this is..."

"In 1980, Apple went public. On the first day of its listing, we bought its 20,000 yuan shares, and we also invested in quantitatively every month. In total, although the stock price has been so low recently, it also brought us... five million?"

"5754,320 yuan, the dividends as of last month."

Sophie commented: "However, due to Jobs' departure, Apple's operating conditions and stock prices were too bad, so we sold a lot. Of course, there were a lot of them again, after all, it was not a stock market crash."

Leonard's heart was beating, because she couldn't help but be excited. She continued to buy Apple stocks in quantitative terms since the first day of listing, and made a net profit of nearly six million US dollars in seven years. This is simply a classic case of identifying potential stocks.

And she knew that the Wang family's behavior was really very common. As Sophie explained before and after, she purchased 20,000 yuan in shares on the first day of listing, and then invested in a regular basis every month, without being too greedy or frivolous. Even if she encountered a downturn, she would just sell it appropriately. This is completely something that any middle-class family can do!

"Ms. Wang, after this interview, please be sure to come to our Fortune headquarters!"

After the record of this conversation was completed, Leonard could already imagine how much performance he could get after returning to New York: "I believe that you and your investment record will definitely become guests of our editorial department!"

The total interview time was as long as an hour and a half, which was nothing strange, but at least twenty minutes of it was used on Sophie, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Who would have thought that this reporter could jump directly from the question of "What did Alice do before she was twelve years old?" to suggesting Sophie publish a book?

“It’s so fun!”

Saying goodbye to the guest, as soon as the door was closed, Sophie said to the whole family happily: "Guys, have you noticed the expression of the female reporter? It seems like she has won the lottery, and I am the one who recommends her to buy this number!"

"Of course, if you find a private investment expert like you, you will definitely be able to do performance bonuses."

Alice gave her mother a hug with a smile, then blinked and said, "Mom, are you going to compete with me for the identity of a best-selling author? This is not very good~"

Sophie smiled and rubbed Alice's head: "Look at what you said, don't you want your mother to be a little famous? James, Oscar, Hannah, what do you think?"

Both children were giggling, while James touched his chin thoughtfully: "My daughter is a computer expert, but she has become a best-selling writer by writing novels. Her wife is a lawyer and an accountant, but she is also favored by the editor of Fortune. She wants to make investment notes into books. Oh, what should I do, the authentic history professor? I have never written any proud works after so many years."

"Wow, hahahaha~ Dad, you're so unlucky~!"

Oscar was so happy that he laughed, and said without hesitation: "I was knocked down by two female generals in our professional field!"

Hannah just giggled. James was laughed at by her son, and his old face sank. He said unhappily: "What are you talking about? My professional field is historical knowledge. Alice and your mother, one is novel and the other is investment experience. How can there be any professional conflicts with me?"

Oscar just gloats, not caring about whether his joy is reasonable: "Then you just write a best-selling historical novel. I'm ready to go, if I can make it to the New York Times rankings, I won't play Super Mario for a month!"

This vow is amazing. The whole family knows that Oscars loves to play the most. Even basketball and rugby are not as attractive as this plumber uncle.

"One month?"

Hannah frowned suspiciously: "Oscar, how could you not play this game one day? She was busy until half past ten last night, okay?"

"That's why I bet it, hey, dad, I agreed that if you can really write a best-selling novel with historical themes, I'll never play it for a month!"

"Hey, then I really have to work hard."

James was so happy: "Long guy, this is to let Oscar study hard. Starting from tonight, no one will disturb me at night. Dad, I'm going to prepare to write behind closed doors!"

"Then have you figured out what to write?"

Alice was a little overwhelmed: "Dad, your research field is Western cowboys, right? This kind of thing has been tossed by countless American writers countless times!"

"That's right, what should I do?"

James also thought about it casually. If you really start writing, it would not be easy: "Alice, you have a lot of experience in writing. Do you give me some ideas? Should you write orthodox history books and introduce cowboys, or is it better to have historical novels?"

"If you want me to tell me, don't just talk about history."

Alice is also full of Alexander when writing books for her father: "Believe me, if you were Stavrianos, you would write "General History of the World". If you really write them out, I will support you. An unpopularity like American cowboy history... Dad, do you know how many students there are in your class, right?"

Seeing that his daughter said this, James also blushed a little.

Admittedly, for many American teenagers, no matter from which perspective, American cowboy history is an unpopular elective course. If a statistic is given to the absenteeism rate of all courses in Cula, his subject will definitely be among the best.

"Then I'll... write a Western cowboy novel seriously? This is OK, but what should I write?"

Listening to my dad's muttering, a classic movie that was very beautiful suddenly popped up in Alice's head.
