Yang Jing and Niamh chatted in the office for most of the morning, and Niamhh left happily in the end.
It can be seen that this guy is very confident that the boss can entrust him with such an important task.
Yang Jing also believed that he could do well. Although Yang Jing did not know him as well as David and Henry, if Niamh was not recruited by him, according to historical development, he could have become the global CEO of Goldman Sachs. That position was not something that ordinary people could hold, which was enough to prove Niamh's ability.
In fact, the Soviet Union's affairs are not difficult for investment sensitivity and operation. The key to doing this well is how to "make friends" with the high-level officials of that red country. As long as you deal with those officials, you can just sit back and wait to collect the money.
Niamh, on the other hand, was quite good at interpersonal communication. If his philosophy was not quite different from that of the current Goldman Sachs CEO Robert Myers, and he was excluded by his boss, he could have done even better.
In fact, it was Mike Aller who recommended Niamh to be in charge of the Soviet Union.
Although Old Mike's business is not very good, even Yang Jing admires his ability to identify people. This old guy is a typical Bole-type person, who is best at identifying and using people. If he didn't want to be too tired, Yang Jing would have handed over the management of the Dragon Fund to him long ago.
But this old man is already in his early sixties. Even if he wants to do it, he doesn't have the energy...
As soon as Niam left, David Anderson walked into Yang Jing's office.
Although David Anderson is the chief investment officer of KY Investment Fund, he also serves as the CEO of Pacific Capital. One of the most important battlefields of Pacific Capital in recent years is Japan. This time, the elusive boss suddenly showed up. David had a lot of topics and questions in his mind, so naturally he had to find the boss to clarify.
"David, you did a great job. Even if there are some flaws, that's normal. I feel relieved to have Cesar by your side to assist you."
More than half an hour later, after Yang Jing finished listening to David's series of stories, he first gave the greatest recognition to this diligent investment officer. In any case, he did a good job. From the beginning of 1988 to now, in two years, Pacific Capital has brought more than 40 billion US dollars in profits to KY Investment Fund. Just for this reason, David has an indelible achievement.
The investment at that time was only 50 billion US dollars, and the net return in two years was as high as 80%, which is definitely a very good return on investment for a fund.
Don't compare the stock market crash with the earnings of the past two years. The stock market crash in 1987 was a rare black swan market that only occurs once in half a century, and Yang Jing didn't invest that much money in that stock market crash.
Now, Pacific Capital has invested 50 billion US dollars in the Japanese market alone. With such a huge amount of funds, it can thank God for a 20% net profit in a year. This is the late 1980s, not the 21st century. In this era, the number of companies in the world that can earn 10 billion US dollars in net profit a year can be counted on five fingers.
Under David's leadership, Pacific Capital's annual net income can exceed 20 billion US dollars. If this news is released, it will definitely shock the world. This high rate of return alone has been the best in the world in the past two years. Yang Jing will not and cannot have any higher requirements for David.
"Boss, I have been keeping an eye on the companies you asked me to pay attention to, but I don't think now is a good time to acquire assets from them, such as Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsui & Co., which you specifically mentioned."
"Yes, you are right." Yang Jing nodded, expressing his affirmation. "Now is indeed not a good time to seek assets from those Japanese companies. Japan's stock market crash will probably last for a long time. The plunge in the stock index is only an early manifestation. The specific effects of the rapid decline of Japan's entire economy will not be seen until a few years later."
"In fact, that's what I think too. So I'm just paying close attention to those companies as you requested, but I haven't taken any action yet."
"That's right. The companies I asked you to pay attention to are all of extremely large scale. The parts of these companies exposed outside are only a small part of them. The part that is submerged underwater is still extremely large. If the total scale of these companies is really added together, the scale of any one of them is not less than the top ten conglomerates in the Federation. Even the top ten conglomerates cannot compare with those companies. These companies are the real conglomerates."
"Ah? Are those companies you asked me to pay attention to so powerful?"
"Haha, of course, they are so powerful, otherwise I wouldn't have specifically told you to pay special attention to these companies."
After a pause, Yang Jing continued, "Take Mitsui & Co., which I asked you to keep a close eye on, for example. This company may seem inconspicuous on the surface, but in fact, the assets it secretly controls are so huge that it makes people feel suffocated. This company is the parent company of the most famous Mitsui Group in Japan!"
"The Mitsui family has a very long history. The family was founded more than a thousand years ago, and the prototype of the Mitsui Group appeared more than four hundred years ago. This history alone is far beyond any of the top ten American groups or even some of the old European groups. As the parent company of the Mitsui Group, you can imagine how powerful Mitsui & Co. is."
