Chapter 0023 Far East Exchange, I’m here
The next day, Gao Xian originally planned to wait for Yi Huiqiang to come over so that he could hand over the plan to him in person, and then take the first step of his new career plan.
It's a pity that the second young master of the Yi family crossed the sea early yesterday to go to a remote wooden house area in Kowloon. It was just a special case. At this time, he was still bedridden.
After finally answering the phone, Yi Huiqiang said drowsily: "You have come up with the plan so quickly. I will go over after washing up."
As a result, Gao Xian had read an entire newspaper this time, and there was no sign of the second young master of the Yi family.
Gao Xian finally came to his senses. He was too naive to believe the "wait" of a person who was used to staying in bed. He didn't want to be delayed for the rest of his life, so after explaining it carefully to the hotel manager, he hurried out.
He left the door and rushed to the Far East Exchange.
In fact, the preparatory work for the Far East Exchange began at the beginning of this year, but in order to avoid the inevitable obstruction of the existing Xiangjiang Stock Exchange, it was kept secret for a long time.
But there is no wall that is always airtight. Applying for hundreds of telephones can hide the purpose, but there is no way to hide other things.
For example, stock transactions must be stamped, otherwise they will not be recognized. Therefore, the Far East Exchange has to go to the Hong Kong government to get its stamp to be recognized.
As long as the matter is explained to the officials of the Hong Kong government, the entire British circle will naturally know about it.
According to Yi Huiqiang, Li Fuzhao, the founders of the Far East Exchange, saw that the preparations had reached the final stage, so they risked their lives and started to sprint openly.
Take the Far East Exchange's large-scale publication of recruitment notices in newspapers, which is essentially a form of advertising.
The greatest confidence of Li Fuzhao and others was that the operating mechanism of the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange was outdated and its services were unpopular, and that the Far East Exchange could take advantage of this opportunity.
For a long time, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has only had a total of 60 broker licenses, owned by foreigners in Hong Kong and some Chinese. Their liquidity is very poor. Rather than selling licenses, brokers prefer to pass them on from father to son, almost becoming a store of value.
assets.
According to Yi Huiqiang, the most recent brokerage license transaction in his memory was for more than US$210,000.
You know, under the premise that the Bretton Woods system has not collapsed, the U.S. dollar linked to gold is a real "U.S. dollar", and a broker's license from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, converted into Hong Kong dollars, greatly exceeds 100 U.S. dollars.
Ten thousand.
In addition to the scarcity of broker licenses, which cannot meet the growing needs of market trading activities, a rule of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that brokers must enter the market alone to conduct transactions has also caused investors to complain.
Think about it, many brokers are elderly people. How can they keep busy in the trading pit, such as answering the phone, reading quotes, drawing on the blackboard, writing buy and sell orders, etc.?
The opening hours of the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange are inherently short every day. Once the market conditions are good, the brokers' phone calls will be filled with calls, and most investors can only stare helplessly from the sidelines.
The Far East Exchange aims at these shortcomings of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to gain room for its own survival.
Even though Li Fuzhao and others are very motivated, many mature and prudent Chinese elites in Hong Kong are still not optimistic about the prospects of the Far East Exchange.
The most obvious reason is that the current operating activities of the Far East Exchange are only to provide a place to trade stocks listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It is a completely free service. When will it be able to attract its own listings?
Company, no one can say for sure.
Gao Xian admitted that the unfavorable information provided by Yi Huiqiang was very reasonable and that the prospects of the Far East Exchange were not optimistic. However, historical results told him that the Far East Exchange had successfully broken through and caught up from behind. This was enough and it was worthy of his choice.
, as for how tortuous and arduous the process is, you can only tell the difference after you have devoted yourself to it.
The address of the Far East Exchange was chosen at the Chinese Bank on Queen's Road in Central. Almost the entire second floor was occupied. From a distance, Gao Xian saw many passers-by pointing at the signboard and talking about it.
"Far East Exchange, here I come." Gao Xian strode to his destination.
Delayed by Yi Huiqiang for a lot of time, Gao Xian inevitably arrived a little late. He even saw some young people who were obviously job applicants walking out of the Far East Exchange and heard one of the group of people talking.
:
"Although the number of English questions I did exceeded the requirements, the accuracy rate did not meet the standard, so I had to be eliminated."
"The situation is similar to yours. I was told by the examiner that there were too many wrong math questions."
…
"Brother!" Gao Xian interrupted with a smile: "You have just applied, can you tell me what the on-site requirements are and what the application process is like?"
"There are no special requirements. I have a Form 5 education. After registering the information, I will go directly to the first level of assessment." The other party answered quite enthusiastically: "Let me tell you, the first level is quite torturous. Every applicant needs to
You have to answer the math and English papers respectively. The order is basically your own choice. It takes fifteen minutes each time. If the number of answers and the correct rate meet the standards, you will be considered a pass."
At this point, the young man scratched his head in embarrassment, "As for the second level... I don't know."
After Gao Xian thanked him, he quickly entered the Chinese Bank.
On the way to the Far East Exchange office, you will pass by the trading hall.
Gao Xian looked around curiously and found that the place was designed in the "live broadcast" style that was popular in the Internet era. Through the glass wall that was obviously specially erected, the workstations and even the blackboard in the trading hall could be seen.
Clearly.
"These founders of the Far East Exchange have really taken great pains to design such a design. I wonder how many interested people will be attracted!" Gao Xian couldn't help but admire it secretly.
At this time, a voice came from behind, "Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Wen, the operations of our Far East Club are very transparent. The trading hall has a 'goldfish bowl' design. Anyone can see clearly the trading activities inside from outside the glass."
.”
"At the same time, the operations of our Far East Club are also very open. You see, I can enter the trading floor as a market dealer. It is no exaggeration to say that allowing women to serve as market dealers is a pioneering work in the entire Commonwealth.
.”
"Mrs. Wen, after you buy a license and become a member of the Far Eastern Association, you can bring your assistant into the trading floor to trade, or you can appoint an agent to do it for you. This kind of convenience is not something that the Hong Kong Association can provide."
