"President Mark, let's forget about the cooperation. You should know very well that the main trading volume in the crude oil futures market is in the European time zone and the Americas time zone."
“A person’s energy is limited, and I really don’t have the time to spare. If we suffer losses, it will be bad for both me and your bank. What do you think?”
Before Mark could respond, Chen Dong continued.
"I've finished my business here. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
After saying this, Chen Dong greeted several directors separately, and then left with Wolong and the others.
this.....?
Mark opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a complete sentence until Chen Dong and the others left the room.
At that moment, the sound of arguing arose inside the house.
One of the directors said with a displeased expression.
"Mark, didn't you say you were 100% sure?"
"But that damned Chinese man refused. Why did this happen? Tell me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another director chimed in in agreement.
“That’s right! Mark, you have to give us an explanation, or we will petition the board to remove you from your position.”
"Enough!"
Mark roared loudly.
These greedy vampires.
If a problem arises, the blame will simply be placed on him.
Mark had had enough.
If violence could solve the problem, he would love to punch each of them.
But thinking about it, I had no choice but to give up.
Mark tried to calm his anger and appear as a gentleman, saying, "Did I say there was no other way?"
"you mean?"
Mark gave a cold laugh: "It's simple. Isn't he using HSBC as a channel? There are relevant clauses in the agreement. We can easily monitor every move in his account under the guise of risk control, and then..."
The words had barely left his mouth.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Although doing so is illogical and suspected of being a violation of regulations.
But so what?
If they don't say anything, who will discover that HSBC's secret funds are buying stocks following Chen Dong's funds?
"Hehe, as expected of President Mark!"
“Mark, I apologize for what you did just now. You are absolutely the most competent CEO I have ever met.”
"Don't worry, after this incident, I will definitely propose at the shareholders' meeting to increase your year-end bonus."
snort!
Mark sneered inwardly, but outwardly maintained a friendly expression, continuing to feign politeness with the group of sanctimonious board members.
......
At the entrance of HSBC Bank.
"Boss, where are we going now?"
"Let's go back first, we can talk about other things later."
"And me? Boss, don't forget about me."
Annie looked at Chen Dong with a pitiful expression; at this point, she had no way out.
Upon hearing this...
Chen Dong said with a smile.
"Miss Anne, please leave your contact information. Please wait at home for the next few days for news. I will contact you after I have finished handling things on my end."
"Don't worry, your salary will start from this month."
"I, boss, that's not what I meant."
"After leaving HSBC, I had nowhere else to go."
After saying that, she blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Chen Dong.
In her heart, Annie was thinking, "How can there be such a blockhead man? Doesn't he understand why I'm doing this?"
"Boss, I... I also want to come out and work for you."
On the side.
Ma Guoliang mustered his courage and finally said those words.
"Manager Ma, do you no longer want your client management manager?"
Chen Dong smiled slightly, his gaze fixed on him. Chen Dong hadn't expected that Annie's presence would be so effective.
"I......"
Upon hearing Chen Dong's words, Ma Guoliang hesitated again.
The reason for hesitation is nothing more than uncertainty about the future.
On one side is a visible future, and on the other is the unknown.
It remains to be seen whether Ma Guoliang dares to take the gamble.
“Boss, I’ve made up my mind. I want to leave HSBC and work for you, just like Annie did. Please take me in.”
After much deliberation, Ma Guoliang decided to take a gamble.
Even if I fail, with my years of connections at HSBC, it won't be difficult to find a job to make a living.
If you bet right, the situation will be completely different.
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong patted Ma Guoliang on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Manager Ma, just as I said, we get along very well."
"If you're unhappy at HSBC, you're welcome to join my team anytime."
"Before that, I personally suggest you think it over carefully. After all, HSBC is a big platform with inherent advantages in terms of connections and resources. What do you think?"
As he spoke, Chen Dong applied a little pressure to the hand on his shoulder.
Ma Guoliang's body stiffened, as if struck by lightning.
The implication couldn't be clearer.
On the surface, Chen Dong said a lot of things, trying to persuade Ma Guoliang to stay at HSBC.
In fact, through Chen Dong's subtle actions, Ma Guoliang realized that the only truly useful words in Chen Dong's long speech were "connections" and "resources."
These are the two things that Chen Dong lacks most right now.
HSBC, on the other hand, is different. As a long-established multinational bank, its heritage, connections, resources, and global network of relationships are enough to demonstrate that HSBC is a behemoth.
Chen Dong's purpose was actually quite simple.
Taking advantage of Ma Guoliang's position, he used certain resources of HSBC.
For example, investigating the financial reports of certain companies.
