Not long ago, Nick looked down on any financial practitioner outside of New York, just like many of his colleagues.

This is a very subtle mentality. Because New York is the financial center in the United States and even North America, the financial practitioners who work in New York seem to be different.

So when he first learned about Bank of America, he had almost no difference with his companions' ideas—"What kind of pheasant bank is this?"

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, "Bank of America" ​​is a name that they trust, but in the eyes of practitioners like Nick, this is an absolute pheasant name.

Of course, it is undeniable that they think that the name Pheasant is not only because they have never heard of it, because the bank is called "Bank of America", but also because the bank's headquarters is not in New York.

For them, they are arrogant and feel that as long as the headquarters is not in New York's Bank of America, they are all pheasant banks.

This kind of pride and prejudice almost ran through the banking staff throughout New York.

As for why he ended up disdaining Bank of America while joining Clayden Investment Bank, which has no bank?

The reason is very simple, because I give a lot of money.

When his salary and his previous job just rose by 30%, he remained indifferent.

But, fifty percent, one hundred percent...

He can no longer be calm.

You should know that in this economic winter, although the banking industry is still living a more prosperous life than most industries, it is still blowing in the bitter cold winter.

As long as he is given enough money, he doesn't care about this or that, as long as he has money, it's fine.

Therefore, he joined the newly founded Clayden Investment Bank.

At the beginning, although he received almost twice his salary than his peers, he was not very optimistic about this bank.

Because, pure investment banking is a very strange thing even in New York.

Even if there is one, it is a small business of a large comprehensive bank.

No mature bank will establish a new bank alone, just to invest in one thing.

From this perspective, the specialized investment bank, and even its main business is angel investment, such as Clayton Investment Bank, which is just like feeding dogs with big chicken legs, cannot make money from an experience point of view.

But what if you make money or not? The employer gives you a salary and you just need to work.

Therefore, Nick followed the crowd and listened to any of the above commands.

He will do whatever he asks him to do.

It is like a piece of soft plasticine, which can not only be pinched into any shape, but also has excellent plasticity.

Nick, who embodies the good plasticine nature, gradually got promoted through repeated changes.

And when he could call the investment bank all over the place, he was so glad that he came to this bank early.

In his opinion, this bank, which is just a grass-roots team, not only has busy business, but also has established a system in the process of conducting business.

Perhaps, it is not difficult to do these two things at the same time to people who only know how to use their mouths. It belongs to the category of "I can do it if I go to me".

However, for someone like Nick who has been doing things for several years, it is quite terrifying.

This requires not only coordination skills, but also a very lofty overall perspective.

Only when you can look down on the entire layout can you make such a layout.

You know, even if it is Nick himself, when doing things, he only pays attention to what he is paying attention to.

Pay attention to the things in the category you are concerned about.

It’s not that he can’t do something like this, but the time he has to give him preparation will definitely be far more than now.

Moreover, there will definitely be more problems during execution.

Of course, being able to improve both aspects while doing one thing at the same time is not the best.

The best thing is that just over a month has passed, the first few venture capital investment cases have begun to have a relatively clear future in revenue.

Although there is no actual profit yet, that business model has been proven to be feasible.

This is even more terrifying.

In this world, there are the most ordinary people, fewer people with ideas, fewer people with ideas and execution ability, fewer people with ideas and execution ability, fewer people with ideas and execution ability, and fewer people with ideas and execution ability, and really successful people with ideas and execution ability, and even fewer people with ideas and execution ability, can't be less.

Nick himself must believe that in so many cases, some people will definitely succeed.

However, this does not reflect ability, because it is a matter of probability.

However, the current cases have already shown profitability in advance, and it is still in such a cold winter of capital, which is very interesting.

This not only means that the decision-makers of Clayton Investment Bank are accurate in their eyes, but also means that Clayton Investment Bank, a model that no one has played before, has great room for potential.

The model of angel investment itself has great potential.

Even those former colleagues of Nick could clearly understand the consequences of getting this angel investment. They came from New York to New Haven without hesitation just to meet the meeting officer.

And he will be invited out for dinner like today.

In the General Steakhouse opposite the Bank of America headquarters building, Nick had a row of steaks, a pair of knife and forks, and a small bottle of drinks in front of him.

And opposite the small table was a man full of beards.

"I really didn't expect that I would come to New Haven to eat steak all day." The bearded man's body seemed to be stuffed into a suit that was not fit, and the whole suit seemed to be about to explode.

This figure may make women scream in surprise after two hundred years, but in this era, it represents rude and low-level.

Why is this?

Because, most people now still believe that rich people should look weak because they do nothing.

Even, like a vampire culture, it represents aristocratic group in old Europe.

Because I don’t have to give birth and stay indoors every day, my skin is pale, and because I don’t have to give birth, my body is soft and weak.

Because he owns a castle and has power, he looks quite charming.

because……

In short, after the Industrial Revolution, the image of vampires, this distorted and harmonious beauty of the state of change, still occupied the mainstream workers' perception of those wealthy aristocrats.

Of course, to a certain extent, a building like a castle itself is a stingy building.

Why do you say so?

Because there are so few people who can protect the castle.

The scenes it can adapt to are almost certainly the kind of small European fiefdom.

In a relatively larger country, buildings similar to castles can only be used by the rich landlords in the countryside.

They used the "castle" they built as a stronghold to collect rent from the surrounding support...

Nick looked at the figure of the bearded man in front of him and thought a lot in his mind. He gradually calmed down when he spoke.

"Yes... I didn't expect you to come to New Haven too. You once said, don't come to New Haven no matter what." Nick took a sip of the bottled drink.

Even this glass bottled beverage is one of the projects invested by Clayden Investment Bank.

Such bottled beverages also look more popular than beverages in traditional stores.

Because it tastes convenient enough and is very convenient to pick up.

Those drinks made on-site, although they look "fresh".

However, for those who have experienced decades of food fraud, if there is an industrially produced beverage and a live-making beverage, they are naturally more inclined to industrially produced beverages.

Because in this word, industrial production is already a good concept in their opinion.

They undoubtedly believe that industrial production of food, like industrial production of any commonly used items, is of higher quality than purely handmade.

This is an inertial thinking that a person at the end of the industrial age is accustomed to the various dividends in the industrial age.

Of course, even if it is not inertial thinking, it will be intentionally cultivated.

The first beverage filling factory is located in New Haven.

Although New Haven's position is not as good as New York.

Because although there are natural and excellent harbors here, there is no river that can extend the economic hinterland into the sea.

However, it is still a very convenient place to transport.

Shipping is the main part of the consumption and transportation of various materials.

Therefore, the establishment of the first filling factory here still has certain transportation advantages.

This place can not only transport this filling glass bottled beverage to more places, but also provide a consumption market.

Of course, this kind of bubbling drink is not very acceptable at present.

Although the taste buds in the mouth feel like they are blown up by small air bubbles, and have a different kind of pleasure, the taste of this drink is really strange.

It's not like beer, tea, and coffee, and it's very different from milk.

From various perspectives, it is a novel thing.

Most people do not have a high acceptance of novel things.

Just like doing business, everyone always likes to do business with acquaintances.
