Chapter Thirty Nine
Luo Yang had the words to say, and as expected, Tao Mu was introduced to his sister at noon the next day.
Miss Luo Family Luo Xi, graduated from Cambridge University. Twenty-eight years old this year, she is a typical white, rich and beautiful woman. She has a strong family background. She is well-known in the capital business community.
Of course, it is expected that she hates her brother and all the people and affairs related to Luo Yang very much.
When I saw Tao Mu, his attitude was unexpectedly bad.
"I can only give you ten minutes." At a cafe opposite the Luo Group, Miss Luo's family had the simplest coffee sandwich set on the table, and she gestured to Tao Mu while eating: "You can start now. ."
Luo Yang sat next to him, frowning very unhappy: "Sister, it's okay for you to face me coldly every day. Can you not do the same to my friends. Besides, Tao Mu is a private investment consultant hired by Li Xiaoheng, who works in finance. Xiao Heng's opinion is very important. You treat Tao Mu like that, isn't it too much?"
Hearing Luo Yang move Li Xiaohang out to suppress others, Luo Xi seemed to be touched, and his face eased a lot: "Sorry, Mr. Tao, don't blame me for being preconceived. It is really my brother who is very unreliable, and his friends are all too. Things gather together. Sometimes it really annoys me."
Tao Mu smiled slightly and didn't care at all: "It's okay. I can understand Miss Luo's attitude."
Luo Yang snorted, as if he was used to the scene before him.
Luo Xi put down the coffee. In just a few minutes, she had completely sorted out her emotions. Looking at Tao Mu with a decent smile, his attitude is gentle and polite, and his tone is approachable with a little curiosity: "Mr. Tao may not know that in the eyes of the second generation of us, the Li family has always been a child of another family. He is at Stanford. In the first year of studying abroad, he created his own financial capital. He can gain a foothold on Wall Street alone by himself. It can be said that he is a very arrogant person in the financial field. He only trusts his own vision and judgment. Mr. Tao can actually. To become Li Xiaoheng's private investment consultant, one must have real talents and learning."
"It happens that I have been very interested in international crude oil futures recently. I don't know if Mr. Tao minds, discuss this topic with me, a layman?"
This is to be weighed down. After all, Luo Xi still didn't believe Luo Yang's words. It's just another way to test Tao Mu's foundation.
Tao Mu smiled slightly, he was not afraid of Luo Xi's temptation. Because of this kind of temptation, on the one hand, it means doubting, distrusting, and still having doubts; but reading it from another angle also means tempting.
If you really don't feel it, you won't even have such an act of temptation.
"Ms. Luo is really polite. Actually, I am not an expert. Just like Ms. Luo, I am only interested in this aspect." Tao Mu pondered for a moment and actively asked, "I don't know what Ms. Luo wants to discuss?"
Seeing Tao Mu's confident appearance, Luo Xi took a sip of coffee and asked maliciously: "Is Mr. Tao short international crude oil himself?"
Tao Mu smiled in his heart. This question is very interesting. If he answers no, it means that he is a mere talker but dare not end up on his own. Like those so-called financial experts who talk about it in the financial column and analyze it all. He speaks beautifully, but he never ends. No matter how long he is, he always looks with his mouth. He is reluctant to spend a penny and focus on talking, and his opinions and opinions will change with the changes of the times. They belong to the professional level. Wall with grass.
What Luo Xi meant was that Tao Mu was also such a person. After all, with Li Xiaoheng's city manor, even if Tao Mu talks nonsense in front of him, Li Xiaoheng will not directly slap him in the face. But if this is the case, Tao Mu's credibility will be greatly reduced.
And now, Luo Xi emphasizes whether Tao Mu is short-selling "on his own", which puts an end to Tao Mu's bragging behavior of rubbing profits under Li Xiaoheng's aura.
——After all, Tao Mu is just an 18-year-old college student, still majoring in acting. It is not that Luo Xi is arrogantly speculating, but it is really a student of this kind of major, and there is a big gap between it and the financial economy.
Luo Xi felt that he didn't need to pierce the matter to embarrass everyone. Just type a sentence or two, if Tao Mu is smart, he should retreat in the face of difficulties.
It is a pity that Luo Xi made the wrong calculation. Tao Mu is really not the kind of person who brags and swindles investment in Luo Xi under the banner of Luo Yang and Li Xiaoheng.
In fact, Tao Mu's approach to Luo Xi has nothing to do with Luo Xi himself. Even negotiating with Luo Xi to allow Dragon Entertainment's artists to join Feixun.com was an excuse Tao Mu casually made in order to get close to Luo Xi.
And Tao Mu's ultimate goal is just to find a well-controlled chess piece, so as to blend into the internal fighting of the Shen Group, the Sheng'an Group and the Luo Group at any time.
It just so happened that Luo Xi had a brain and a city. The most important thing was - thanks to Tao Mu's resurrection life, he still held Luo Xi's lethal handle. So Tao Mu is not afraid that Luo Xi will turn back halfway.
"I'm ashamed. Although the time difference between China and country M is a bit big, I am really interested in the international crude oil, and I want to stay up all night and watch the market. So in recent months, my skin condition is particularly bad. Even people. Not as handsome as before. Fortunately, I have better luck, and I still live up to the hard work."
Tao Mu's remarks are well versed in the essence of low-key pretending. Sure enough, Miss Luo was interested. She picked up a pair of extremely delicately trimmed eyebrows, and asked with a smile but a smile: "Oh. I don't know if I can take the liberty to ask, what is Mr. Tao's gain?"
Tao Mu thought about it in his heart, and said with a smile: "So far, the rate of return is pretty good."
Tao Mu reported a number. Luo Xi's face changed slightly: "This seems to have a higher rate of return than Li Xiaoheng?"
Tao Mu smiled suddenly: "After all, I am his private investment advisor."
The role of investment advisors is to guide buyers how to choose stocks and how to operate. Therefore, Tao Mu's personal return rate is higher than that of Li Xiaoheng, which is also a matter of reason.
Of course, if based on the theory of capital base, Li Xiaoheng's income is definitely higher than Tao Mu. This is also helpless.
Tao Mu was not afraid that Luo Xi would investigate the matter privately. Luo Xi didn't worry that Tao Mu was bragging. After all, when Tao Mu withdrew the funds from the futures market, he would have to pay taxes on the matter of income.
He is not so good in the early stage, but at the last moment, he smashes all the gains in it. Even if it is really unlucky, there is always a trace to change hands in the futures market.
Thinking about it this way, Luo Xi's attitude towards Tao Mu suddenly got closer.
"I didn't expect Mr. Tao to have such a talent at his young age." Luo Xi smiled softly and seemed to admire Tao Mu's talent: "I heard Luo Yang said that you also created Feixun.com. Now the website is developing in full swing. , When you found me this time, you also hope to persuade me to let all the artists of Longteng Entertainment join Feixun. I just don’t know, what good is this kind of thing for Longteng Entertainment?"
"Mr. Luo, please see--" Tao Mu said, pulling out a propaganda planning book from his schoolbag and handing it to Luo Xi.
Although it was just an excuse to approach Luo Xi. But with the depth of Tao Mu's city house, Luo Xi would never doubt it. So Tao Mu also carefully prepared one. If Longteng Entertainment agrees to cooperate with Feixun's publicity plan, its artists will naturally follow suit.
"The military uniform will celebrate the National Day?" Luo Yang opened the propaganda planning book written by Tao Mu overnight, frowning: "This idea is a bit special. Do you think it will be effective?"
"Establish a positive image, promote positive energy, guide netizens to remember their bitterness and sweetness, and celebrate the birthday of the motherland throughout the country." Tao Mu said solemnly: "Such a thematic publicity activity will definitely have a positive response in society. I think no matter it is. It is a good publicity for the artists under Longteng Entertainment and for the image of the Luo Group itself."
As for how to have an impact, it depends on how everyone communicates with the media.
Luo Xi asked thoughtfully: "You mean, when the National Day propaganda, I should also wear a military uniform photo to cooperate with Feixun.com's propaganda?"
Tao Mu smiled slightly, meaning something: "I heard that Chairman Luo, who founded the Luo Group with one hand, is still a retired soldier. Mr. Luo can protect his family and the country with his abilities, and culture and economy." He is really admired by my generation. Character."
Luo Xi's slender fingers with red nail polish unconsciously flipped through the corners of the planning book: "I can't be the master of this. I have to go back and discuss it with my father."
Tao Mu Shuyan smiled: "This is natural."
Luo Xi looked at Tao Mu and suddenly asked, "You are not afraid that I will reveal your plan? After all, it is not only Feixun.com that can initiate this activity on the Internet. As far as I know, the bib has also been used recently. I’m trying every means to attract netizens and attract more people to sign up. If your publicity plan is put on a scarf, I’m afraid it will attract more people’s attention."
Tao Mu smiled slightly: "I believe Mr. Luo is not that kind of person."
What kind of person? Luo Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, and didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, Tao Mu is not afraid that Luo Xi will reveal this plan to the bib. Because Tao Mu's planning plan was originally two sets. One set is a positive plan shown to Luo Xi, which is used by Feixun.com in the absence of wind and waves. The other set is that Luo Xi revealed this plan to the bib, and Feixun will launch a counter-attack propaganda in a passive situation. It can not only discredit a bib, but also step on the bib to promote her so-called pull plan.
Of course, the latter's publicity effect may be better. After all, the bib family nowadays has a big business and is more famous than the newly launched Feixun.com.
Tao Mu has always prepared with both hands. As for which hand to use when the matter comes, it depends on the situation at that time.
Luo Xi certainly didn't know that Tao Mu had dug so many holes for her. She had a good time communicating with Tao Mu. During the period, she was especially curious to consult Tao Mu about how to start short international oil futures if she wanted to go short.
The Luo family and the Li family are world-renowned, and the Xiaoheng capital return rate created by Li Xiaoheng has always been among the best on Wall Street. As a partner of the Li family, the Luo Group naturally also opened an account at Xiaoheng Capital and handed over most of the idle funds to Li Xiaoheng for operation.
However, Tao Mu knew that Luo Xi had set up several handbag companies and small vaults in private without the Luo Group and the Luo family. She asked Tao Mu about shorting the international crude oil, and she must also want to operate it quietly.
This is what Tao Mu is happy to see. Luo Xi wants to make money, wants to be recognized by Mr. Luo, and wants to gain a higher position and greater authority in the Luo Group. Then she must have a place to find Tao Mu. People have weaknesses if they ask for it.
Tao Mu was afraid that Luo Xi had no desires or desires. At the moment, he gave Luo Xi some guidance carefully. Some have something to say and get immediate results. The happy Luo Xi smiles, and when he looks at Tao Mu, he looks like his own younger brother—no, because of the way Luo Xi and Luo Yang get along, they should be closer than their younger brother.
The meal was a pleasant one. When the three of them came back to their senses, Luo Xi said that ten minutes had passed a few back and forth, and it was time to go to work. Miss Luo family reluctantly bid farewell to Tao Mu, and left with the fiancé who came to pick her up-in the afternoon they will go to Party B's company for inspection.
Tao Mu coldly looked at the back of the two of them leaving, and smiled meaningfully: "Sister Ling and her boyfriend are really men and women. They match very well."
"What is it?" Luo Yang curled his lips: "The man is my sister's college classmate. The family is in the countryside, and he is poor. He is basically useless except for a face. The character is also a mere promise. In front of my dad. I can’t even say a word. I’m afraid I’ll be married to our house in the future. I don’t know why my sister falls in love with him. Those who make troubles have to marry him. My father and mother introduced her to her. She didn't even look at so many young talents. She simply lost our family."
"Our relatives said that my sister is too awkward. My dad is also dependent on her temperament. I really don't know what to think."
Luo Yang glanced at Tao Mu with his eyes, saw the opposite party’s expressionless face, his heart jumped, and said, "But my sister, a person who talks about interests in everything, would actually talk to college classmates. I have been in love for so many years and still get married. In fact, I was quite surprised. How to say it, it can be considered as affectionate and affectionate. The key is that my father and mother still don't care about her."
Luo Yang said, with a look of envious expression: "If I can marry anyone I want to marry, I will marry anyone."
Is it true that you have a deep sense of love?
Tao Mu thought of the methods used by Luo Xi and his wife to drive tigers and devour wolves in the Luo group after the death of the old man Luo in the previous life.
In the afternoon, Tao Mu returned to Jingying. However, it is rare to not pay attention to financial news and website backends, but to search for recently released movies and restaurants near movie theaters.
The three roommates squeezed their eyebrows and leaned over: "Twilight, are you...something?"
"What's the situation?" Tao Mu didn't react yet: "What's the matter?"
"That's it!" Wen Bao tapped Tao Mu's computer screen with his chin: "For nothing, why are you looking for movies and restaurants again? Are you going to date a girl?"
"Who the **** is it? When did you see the right eye? We stayed with you all the time, why don't we know?" Du Kang scratched his chin with his fingers, and passed all the information of the 2008 Beijing Film Girls in his head. After all, I couldn't think of who actually dug Tao Mu away.
"Is it Kou Xiaona who was the first to call for you that day? Or Qi Liu Haier, who comes to give you water every time the military training is over? Or--"
"What!" Tao Mu interrupted Du Kang's speculation in an angry and funny way: "A friend of mine came back from Country M and stayed for two days. I don't know where to go to play. I will accompany him to stroll around."
"Oh?" The three people in the dormitory rushed to the end, "So it's a childhood sweetheart?"
"Male." Tao Mu broke roommates' illusions with a sentence: "It can also be said that it is the future host of Feixun.com-my friend is a financial venture capitalist. In the future, if Feixun can really go to the market for financing. This piece is indispensable to find him."
Tao Mu just casually explained his relationship with Li Xiaoheng to his friends. The three roommates took it seriously: "So, can there be an IT boss in our dormitory?"
"Oh, hey, then we have to get around you too. In the future, if you make a movie or TV series or something, you can be an investor!" Du Kang quickly squeezed Tao Mu's arm and thumped his leg, watching Tao Mu still worry about choosing a movie. Regarding the matter, friendly suggestion: "I think the "Plan B" released two days ago is pretty good. Xiangcheng movie, a police movie starring Zhou Yanqing. The reputation is pretty good.”
Tao Mu thought for a while, and checked the time and number of screenings in nearby cinemas on the Internet. Then he sent a message to Li Xiaoheng: "Can you?"
Li Xiaoheng might also be fiddling with his mobile phone, almost in seconds: "Of course. I'm tired."
"Nothing, you are too polite."
This is the first time the two have sent a message since they met, and they both have some polite restrictions on social etiquette. It seems that considering that Tao Mu does not have a car, Li Xiaoheng also offered to come to Beijing Film to pick up people. Tao Mu knew the location of the Li family's mansion, almost half the distance from Jingying. This is the future master, he is embarrassed to make Li Xiaoheng toss so much.
So the two met directly in the cinema on Sunday morning.
On weekend mornings, those who can choose to watch movies as a pastime are usually young couples in love. The appearance of the two big men Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng immediately aroused many people's onlookers. Fortunately, both of them have a big heart, and the appearance of nothing but makes a group of onlookers feel that they are making a fuss very boring. After entering the movie theater, the lights went out and everything was black and black, and no one paid any attention.
Li Xiaohang sat next to Tao Mu, and had been paying attention to Tao Mu's actions during the whole movie watching. When Tao Mu just sat down, he took out a small notebook from his pocket. From the beginning of the movie, he has been writing and drawing on the small notebook. What plot enters in five minutes, what plot does the actor show in what way? What kind of thoughts of the director are conveyed by the set furnishings...
The light in the movie theater is very dark, and the light from the big screen shines brightly on Tao Mu's face, drawing Tao Mu's outline deeper and deeper.
In this dim light, Tao Mu sometimes lowered his head to take notes, and sometimes raised his head to observe the actor's serious and persistent expression.
He really likes acting.
This kind of enlightenment rose in Li Xiaoheng's heart.
After the movie, Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng walked out of the cinema along the crowded crowd. Tao Mu, who had been immersed in the plot analysis, suddenly recovered and asked Li Xiaoheng with a smile: "What do you think of this movie?"
"Very good." Li Xiaoheng nodded. In fact, he didn't pay much attention to the plot, he was not interested in such things by nature. Compared with the joys and sorrows in the movie, he thinks Tao Mu's various small expressions when analyzing the movie are more interesting.
"I think you took a lot of notes while watching a movie. Is this the legendary film?"
"Yes." Tao Mu nodded, feeling that he was habitually neglecting Li Xiaoheng's actions when watching movies, and it seemed not so good, and then explained: "We learn to perform. In addition to practicing the sound table, daily tasks It’s almost an occupational disease if it’s just learning by filming."
In fact, Tao Mu had seen this movie in his previous life. It's just that after many years, different mindsets have different visions, and things seen are different. Doing it again at this moment is also very beneficial.
Li Xiaoheng smiled and said, "Why do you feel embarrassed? Being serious is a very rare and precious quality. Besides, we just watch movies. But compared to other movies, I look forward to the works starring you more."
Tao Mu smiled upon hearing this: "Then you have to wait another two years. Our school has a policy that students are not allowed to accept foreign departments before their junior year."
"Don't you still have stage plays and dramas? And there are presentation performances at the end of each semester." Li Xiaoheng said with a smile: "When will the show be performed, can I reserve a ticket?"
Tao Mu smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Li also knows our profession very well."
"Because my most admired partner likes this." Li Xiaoheng smiled: "Let's go eat."
"You invite me to watch a movie, and I invite you to dinner. How about?"
Because when Tao Mu reported to Li Xiaoheng about the location of the cinema and the number of screenings, he didn't mention subsequent meals. So Li Xiaoheng also asked people to search for restaurants near the cinema. Then very strange, the two actually chose the same private kitchen.
After arriving at the restaurant, Tao Mu told Li Xiaoheng about the matter. Li Xiaoheng also felt that it was a special coincidence: "It seems that the two of us are worthy of gold medal partners. There is a tacit understanding in work and a tacit understanding in getting along with each other in private."
Actually it is not. Because of the occupational disease of financial practitioners, Li Xiaoheng did not have much appetite for food. The reason why I chose this restaurant is entirely because of Tao Mu's taste-the two had a meal in H Town. From that meal alone, Li Xiaoheng basically understood Tao Mu's eating habits and taste preferences.
Sure enough, after the two got the dishes, Tao Mu ordered the same dishes as Li Xiaoheng expected.
It was because of the "common hobby" of financial stocks that they got acquainted with each other, and at the same time they shorted international crude oil. The two of them turned to this topic unknowingly at the dinner table.
Li Xiaoheng already knew from Luo Yang that Tao Mu was also shorting international oil futures, and the rate of return was even higher than that of Xiaoheng Capital. This made Tao Mu admire him and became more curious about Tao Mu's operations in the international futures market. Now that I have the opportunity, I have to be humble to ask for advice.
It is also to pave the way for the suggestions to be made next.
