Chapter 1024 The Ultimate Benefit of Shorting Airline Stocks
After dealing with the Barron's interview, Wu Tao returned to Tsinghua University.
He owes so many classes this semester that he will be embarrassed if he doesn't come back. In my memory, even if I have a working master's degree, I have to go back to school several times a year to visit teachers.
So the first thing he did when he returned to Tsinghua University was to rush to the building of the School of Economics and Management and pay a special visit to Qian Yingyi.
When Qian Ying saw him appearing one by one, she immediately took off her glasses, held them in her hands and joked: "Hey, it's rare that you still miss your alma mater and know that you'll come back!"
Wu Tao smiled and said: "Director Qian, look what you said, if I don't come back, what will you do if you don't issue me a diploma?"
Qian Ying waved her hands and said: "Don't dare! You have been on the cover of Barron's, twice; and your paper has been taken as a secret study by the superiors, also twice. How dare we not graduate you!"
"If this is really the case, Director Qian, then I won't give you the coffee beans originating from Brazil!" Wu Tao opened the seal of the paper bag in his hand and flicked it in the other person's direction so that Qian Yingyi could smell the coffee. The mellow aroma of beans.
He knew that Qian Yingyi, who had studied abroad, was good at this.
Qian Ying didn't need to smell much to know that the coffee beans in Wu Tao's hands were of high quality, and she couldn't stand it anymore, "Leave the things for me!"
Wu Tao put the coffee beans on the table, leaning half of his buttocks on Lao Qian's desk and said, "Director Qian, please do me a favor."
Qian Ying sipped her coffee beans and said without raising her head, "I knew you were up to something, so tell me."
"It's like this. You also know the views of my two papers. They were all taught by you, and they are just pediatrics to you. Now I am asked to hold seminars and give popular lectures to those old and young men in the officialdom. .I can’t control this situation, you have to help me!”
"That's it?" Qian Yingyi accidentally put down the bag of coffee beans.
Wu Tao nodded with sincerity on his face.
"This is a great opportunity for you to make a name for yourself. Why did you run away from the battle?" Qian Ying looked at Wu Tao's face, trying to find some mystery on his face.
However, Wu Tao has never seen anyone. As long as he doesn't want to show off his apparent kung fu skills, no one will be able to tell.
"Director Qian, you also know that I don't have much time to study in school. The theoretical foundation is definitely not solid enough. If the officials find out something wrong, it will be a disgrace to our Tsinghua University..."
Qian Ying thought about it one by one and realized that this was reasonable, so she reluctantly agreed.
When he walked out of the landscape building, Liu Yanlin and Cai Bao were already waiting for him. The two of them are now official employees of Tianan Company's capital office. They wear human-like clothes and are not afraid of attracting attention when walking on campus.
Walking up to Wu Tao, Liu Yanlin asked first: "Is it done?"
Wu Tao spread his hands and said: "I gave away all the coffee beans from 1982, how can I not handle it?"
Cai Bao, on the other hand, said incomprehensibly: "You said that you were asked by the dean to give lectures in Zhongnanhai. This is such a honorable thing, how could you give up?"
Wu Tao knew in his heart that at this moment, in his own capacity, there was no need to get too close to the dean. On the other hand, if it were a scholar like Qian Yingyi, he would not have such worries at all.
But for Cai Bao and Cai Bao, Wu Tao was too lazy to explain, so he immediately changed the subject and said: "Stop talking about me, how are you two doing at your work? Don't think that because the general manager is my wife, you can blatantly work without any effort. !”
Liu Yanlin immediately denied it and said: "There is absolutely no such thing!"
Cai Bao was even more annoyed and said: "Come on, An Rong is also our classmate, okay?" Then the topic changed, "But when it comes to this matter, I have to make an opinion."
After speaking, he glanced at Wu Tao.
Wu Tao was pushing the mountain bike and was about to go out. Hearing that he stopped talking, he looked up at him and said, "You can just carry it, what do you want me to do?"
As the three people left Tsinghua University on bicycles in parallel, Cai Bao said, "Two questions. First, Tianan Company's current computer products are all concentrated on desktops. I think as people pay more and more attention to mobility, especially in colleges and universities, To meet the needs of domestic students, we must have laptop products.”
Wu Tao nodded.
Cai Bao continued: "The second point is that currently all Tianan Company's products are cost-effective. It is undeniable that it will indeed help open up the market for a period of time, but in the long run, if you want to make high-end PC products, or in other words In other words, it is not that easy to complete product lines at all price points.”
By the time they finished speaking, the three of them had already ridden out of Tsinghua University.
Wu Tao turned his head and asked: "The suggestions you raised are very pertinent, why didn't you report them to me?"
Cai Bao stopped talking, but Liu Yanlin explained, "I reported it, but the company is busy expanding and seems to have no response."
"Is that so?" Wu Tao said thoughtfully, "The two points you mentioned are very constructive. I'll ask you what happened later."
After having lunch with Cai Bao near Tsinghua University, Wu Tao rushed to the Tianqi Investment Branch in Xidan in the afternoon.
Today's Tianqi Investment Xidan branch has expanded a lot due to its strategy of shifting its investment focus to the country in the next five years.
This is definitely one of the few in the Xidan CBD area where land is at a premium.
The decoration style of the entire company has been in line with the top international financial institutions and organizations, surpassing other domestic companies by a long way.
After Wu Tao arrived, the front desk was greeted by a serious and responsible new face, who registered him as a visitor step by step.
As a result, when Wu Tao wrote down his name, the lady at the front desk suddenly realized that she matched the face in front of her with the face in the company's honor room.
"I'm sorry, boss, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't recognize you..."
Wu Tao subconsciously touched his chin. He deliberately didn't shave today, so this happened.
So he casually asked, "Do I look too old for this?"
Unexpectedly, the young lady at the front desk was also an honest person and subconsciously responded: "I am at least seven or eight years old..." After saying that, I felt that it was outrageous, "No, no..."
Wu Tao straightened his clothes and said, "Okay, to be honest, I won't blame you."
After saying that, he stepped into the company.
Along the way, many familiar employees came up to say hello. When the young lady at the front desk heard this, her pretty face turned red with embarrassment, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in immediately.
Knocking on Qin Xiaoxiao's office, this strong working woman in expensive professional attire was immersed in documents.
When he looked up, he saw that Wu Tao was coming. He immediately put down the documents and came over to greet him: "Boss, you're here and you didn't even say hello in advance."
Wu Tao smiled, "I'm from a company, do I still need to make an appointment?"
"That's not what you said!" Qin Xiaoxiao handed him the document on the table and said, "This is the document just sent by Yingying. The benefits brought to us by the 911 incident have been calculated."
Wu Tao raised his eyes and asked, "More than 40 billion US dollars?"
Qin Xiaoxiao explained, "Currently, the combined market value of many airlines is only over 200 billion U.S. dollars, so being able to earn so much this time is really rare."
Wu Tao nodded, "Well, it's okay!"
