An inch of financial street? Have you ever wondered what is behind the tall building?

After leaving Financial Street for 9 years, I returned to work here. I have worked here in Daiyue, and I have had both happiness and sadness. Have you ever thought about coming back here after nine years and starting another complicated relationship?

A person's life can have several nine years, not to mention the most youthful years. Walking will look at Yinglan Building where I fought day and night nine years ago. I can't remember the years there.

Some people describe the location of financial street like this. In Beijing, the Forbidden City is about three places to the west. There is a piece of land in the shape of a red wine cork, surrounded by Fuchengmennei Street, Chang 'an Street, West Second Ring Road and Taiping Bridge Street-Financial Street. In fact, the area is only 1. 17 square meters.

There are three meetings and three ambassadors: China Mobile, China Unicom, China Telecom, China Industrial and Commercial Bank, China Construction Bank, China Bank Headquarters, and even Goldman Sachs, Morgan and UBS. Some people describe low-key as connotative.

The young people who work here now claim to be migrant workers in Financial Street. This word hides hope and a little helplessness.

First, in the financial street, there is no canteen, and eating is a secondary issue.

The office buildings in Financial Street are too dense. The flow of people here is very regular. Since 8: 00 in the morning, there have been waves of people shuttling back and forth in various office buildings. They walked in a hurry and bowed their heads in a hurry. Yonghe Dawang at the exit of Fuxingmen subway station and Starbucks on the first floor of Parkson are all good places to solve breakfast. If it is in Fuchengmen, it is pancake fruit with strong old Beijing flavor, or Huatian snack with a long history.

Around noon 12:00, several restaurants such as Financial Street Center, Fang Jincheng Street and Financial Street Shopping Center are crowded places. If you want to eat in several restaurants where gold is popular, I'm afraid you have to wait for more than 30 minutes.

Nine years ago, there was no Jindingxuan on the B 1 floor of Financial Street Center, no gold shopping center, only Fang Jincheng Street. I often cross this crowded street and eat in the alley further back.

There are many places to eat now, but there are still so many people.

Even at 9 o'clock in the evening, the restaurants in Fang Jincheng Street are crowded with people talking about projects while eating. Leisure seems to be out of place here.

Second, behind the glamorous, what are the migrant workers in Financial Street thinking?

I remember several of our friends discussing at that time, how much is enough? Some people say1100,000, others say 5 million, and others are silent. In fact, they are calculating the commission of the project in their minds.

Most of them graduated from better domestic financial institutions or returned from studying abroad. They are dressed in suits and ties, and English is mixed in their speeches from time to time. They are full of passion and talk about big projects. However, their work autonomy is very small, their working environment is narrow and their work intensity is high. Some people say that the cost performance is not high.

However, I know that every one of them is full of dreams and is a dream catcher.

Today, many years later, I have leisure to walk through that elegant alley.

In addition to the square in front of the Gold Shopping Center, the vicinity of CPPCC is also a good place to take a walk at noon. I really didn't have much time at noon before, but now I know that the scenery in the alley here is unique.

Walk along 159 Middle School, these buildings have a long history. In the middle stands a big quadrangle, which is said to be the residence of a general.

There is actually a place to play basketball in the middle of the road next to CPPCC. Not the basketball court, of course. There is a basketball basket and a 30-meter long road. But at least, there is a place to move.

Fourth, what impressed me the most was the tall five-star hotels and shopping malls, as well as high-end school districts.

There is a well-known CSRC, how many employees of enterprises are standing at the gate of the CSRC, and how many migrant workers in Financial Street shuttle through the negotiation rooms of the CSRC, respectfully listening to the feedback of the project during the meeting.

Nine years later, there was the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, but it was very low-key. I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't happened to see the sign on the stone at the door one day.

There are Westin Hotel, International Hotel and Ritz-Carlton Hotel, which can satisfy all your imaginations.

In the direction of Xidan, there are the original CDB headquarters (now moved to Chang 'an Avenue) and the family building of the bank. Fenghuiyuan and Xicheng Jinghua, which many people yearn for. Up to now, the holiday is more than 6.5438+0.5 million yuan per square meter. Of course, the nearby Experimental No.2 Primary School and Experimental Middle School are also the pain in the hearts of many parents.

Five, the exclamation of financial migrant workers

A person who works in Financial Street wrote in his blog. "More than five years after graduation, I am on the run. I have been submerged by the towering buildings in the financial street, so I can't study the shape of the fountain in the square downstairs, see the condensation of a dewdrop on the lawn, or even appreciate the unbridled growth of an evergreen tree. In fact, the essence of life lies in growth, so the ginkgo trees on both sides of the financial street have turned green, yellow and green. In the endless stream of traffic, in the rush of people coming and going, in the ups and downs of asset prices, the colors are changed repeatedly. "

Six, my feelings

After the broadcast of My Old Age, a friend asked me, is the work of the consulting company really like that in the TV series? Competition among colleagues is fierce, and everyone stays up in the pub at night. The working atmosphere is similar, but most people don't kill time in pubs, and some talk business in cafes and other places.

There are still many friends who envy the life of investment banks. They are charming and have a lot of money. However, they don't understand the pain in the hearts of those financial workers. Especially after nine years, great changes have taken place in the macro economy and the market, and many people may even want to try their hand at BAT.

However, once there is, it will be relieved.

Seven, once the financial street

Have you ever thought that the financial street, which people love and hate, was founded by Kublai Khan 750 years ago?

When the Yuan Dynasty was established, Kublai Khan decided to set up 50 workshops in Dadoucheng after careful investigation, one of which was "Jincheng Workshop". In the southwest corner of the yuan dynasty, which is today's financial street.

Fang Jincheng used to be a residential area with hutongs and low terrain. Taipingqiao Street in the east was originally a flood discharge ditch, which ran from north to south as a moat. There are many bungalows and low-rise houses in the hutong, but they are all gone now. There are also several palaces, such as Wudinghou and Guangningbo in Ming Dynasty, Shuncheng County Palace and Degong House in Qing Dynasty. In addition, there are some government agencies and special places, such as inspection institute, local science procuratorate, Tunma procuratorate, Jeju Wei, Tengpai camp and Ma Yang camp. This is how Houjie and Guangningbo Street in Wuding came from.

During the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, many banks were opened here, and the royal family and many rich people also did business here. In the Qing Dynasty, "Jincheng Square" was gradually renamed as "Jinshifang". Daqing Bank was established here at that time, and it was changed to China Bank after the Republic of China. Sure enough, it smells like money for many years.

Eight, past lives, born for money.

Fuchengmen Nanjinchengfang, Fuxingmen North Financial Street.

After Wu Ding Hou Wuxing made a decisive decision, Guangning Bo Xi named Min Guangning.

Outside the Chenghuang Temple, I sighed sincerely. At Miaoying Temple, I felt a wonderful response.

Who knows in previous lives, the passage of time left a thin film.

Wu Ding Hou Guoying, after the battle of Hongwu, Yongle and Jingnan, was lucky among the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty, because "Wu Ding Hou Wuxing was later determined"; Liu Jiang (later named Liu Rong) of Quang Ninh fought for it, defended Quang Ninh Wei in Liaodong, repelled the enemy's invasion, and ensured the peace of Liaodong, which means "Quang Ninh Bo likes people and likes Quang Ninh". The word "Jincheng" means good luck. In On Qin, Jia Yi described Xianyang, Qin Dou as "the solid of Guanzhong, the golden city is thousands of miles away, and the descendants and emperors will make contributions from generation to generation", while imperial academy in Yuan Dynasty interpreted it as "taking saints as the golden city and naming it".

Another meaning of Jincheng Square is "golden" city, which echoes today's financial street from a distance. During the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, gold shops and banks were everywhere, and they were bustling commercial districts and financial centers. Stars moved around and entered the 1990s in the blink of an eye. 1993 The master plan of Beijing approved by the State Council built a state-level financial management center on the basis of Fangjincheng District in Yuan Dynasty, and centralized arranged the headquarters of state-level banks and non-bank institutions, resulting in Beijing Financial Street.

Ginkgo biloba on both sides is green and yellow, yellow and green, year after year.
