Reborn Tycoon Rise

Chapter 95 New Investment

After talking to Tom for another half an hour, both parties finalized some details. The next day, Xu Zhi asked the lawyers of both parties to meet and prepare a contract. After confirming that there was no problem, Xu Zhi signed it.

Xu Zhi also received an advance payment of US$460,000 from the other party and deposited the money into the account of Midea's US branch.

This is a transaction in the United States. It is impossible to evade taxes. Fortunately, the annual tax payment date in the United States is April 15th of the next year. You can hire a professional tax lawyer to avoid tax at that time.

The funds for filming the movie went another way. The funds transferred from Xiangjiang Changxing Company also registered a branch in the United States. Although this is not the Internet era, in fact, the bank has records of the transfer of company funds, and these will become taxes. As important evidence, all the accounts of several companies are separated for the convenience of future operations and taxation.

Under the influence of the money power, the car that was modified into a car after the car accident was quickly delivered to the filming location. Max and others soon informed Xu Zhi that the filming of the video would begin soon.

The shooting of the video was extremely simple, just follow the plot step by step. There were no close-ups, no dialogues, no stunts, and only a few NGs. After 3 days of shooting, the video was shot easily!

After that, all that was left was cutting. Max also found an experienced driver and edited the video at Xu Zhi’s request.

The full name of ABC TV station is American Broadcasting Company. Unlike ordinary companies, this company has two headquarters:

The entertainment program is headquartered in Burbank, near Los Angeles, near the global entertainment center of Hollywood. The headquarters of the Media Center is located in Times Square, New York.

Burbank is very close to Los Angeles, only about 10 miles (16 kilometers). This is also Xu Zhi's first time driving after crossing. In the United States, you can apply for a driver's license when you are 16 years old, and the same is true for foreigners.

The United States is vast and sparsely populated. Although it has a population of 300 million, its area is similar to that of the mainland, and its usable land is much greater. From east to west, it is basically plains, except for a few canyons and deserts. Some areas are habitable. In this regard, the land in Asia is much different. Especially in the western part of the country, transportation development is too difficult.

The vast land has also led to the development of American cities and towns tending to become more rural. Supermarkets and schools are not near the center of the town at all. Without cars, it is difficult to move.

It is also very simple to get a driver's license in the United States. You must first pass a written test, and then the local DMV will give you a temporary probationary driver's license. Once you have this driver's license, you are not able to drive it casually, but must You can only drive under the guidance of an experienced driver with no history of serious driving violations.

Although Xu Zhi was not an experienced driver in his previous life, he had no problem driving.

However, the rules in the United States are quite perverted. For example, when you see a stop sign while driving, you must stop. You must step on the brakes to stop the car, and then check to see if there is a car. If there is no car, leave. If there is a car, Follow the rules again.

In the mainland of later generations, when encountering objects that may need to be avoided, such as ghost probes, or intersections, it is generally good to slow down and pass slowly, which is worthy of praise. However, this is not the case in the United States. Xu Zhi habitually made several mistakes in this regard. , the coach next to him was so angry that he almost yelled, but maybe for the sake of the beauty, he didn't care.

After more than ten kilometers of road and the large displacement of the 5.0, Xu Zhi drove to Burbank in less than ten minutes.

ABC's headquarters is very large, but it is not a high-rise building. In the United States, except in big cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, it is generally not popular to build high-rise buildings in places. The same is true for the headquarters of Google and Apple in later generations.

Most companies prefer to find a large flat land, build rows of buildings, and then ask a gardening company to arrange various greenings in the middle. Modern technology and natural art are perfectly combined.

After asking several front desks, Xu Zhicai found a place. There were not many people who signed up. After all, this is not the era of Douyin short videos. I want to make a video. Although the investment cost is not too much, it does not have a professional purpose. , most people will not participate in this kind of thing.

The procedure is not complicated. The main thing is to verify the identity. After all, it involves a maximum bonus of 200,000 US dollars. This is a very large sum for ordinary people in this era when the average monthly salary in the United States is less than 1,000 US dollars. .

There are still more than ten days before Father's Day, and the videos should still need to be reviewed. In the end, the TV station will select 8 videos to be played on Father's Day, and the audience will vote for the best short video.

At this moment, it was estimated that the arcade machine floating on the sea would take some time to arrive. Xu Zhi suddenly realized that he would have nothing to do in the meantime.

Instead of going back to Los Angeles directly, Xu Zhi sent the driver to go back by himself, and he got on the plane directly and headed to the city that never sleeps - New York!

In his previous life, Xu Zhi had never been to the United States. Most of his knowledge of New York came from two TV series: Friends and How I Met Your Mother.

New York is the heart of the American economy and the center of the global economy. In New York, there are countless simple place names and buildings, many of which are associated with American culture, such as Wall Street for finance, the Statue of Liberty for democracy, and so on.

When you come to New York, of course you have to visit the most famous place in the global economy - Wall Street.

The headquarters of Goldman Sachs is here. In Xiangjiang, Xu Zhi is a distinguished customer of Goldman Sachs, but in the Wall Street headquarters, he can only be regarded as a small VIP. Before his products have opened to the U.S. market, these real predators have no regard for him. Still disdainful.

With Gao Yada's business card, Xu Zhi was received by an investment manager.

Karen Bryce is a senior investment manager at Goldman Sachs. Today he received a strange guest. Seeing some documents given to him by Xu Zhi, he asked again with certainty: "Mr. Xu, you only need to invest in these two companies." ?”

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, these two companies can be said to be IT companies. You should have heard of Apple, and Microsoft is probably not very well-known now."

Karen said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Xu, Apple has become the new favorite of Wall Street. I don't know how many venture capital funds are queuing up to send money to them. If you want to invest, I guess..."

"Understood!" Xu Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "If Apple can't invest, then focus on Microsoft. It has two founders. One is Bill Gates, who is probably difficult to convince, and the other is Paul A. Lun Ze should be much simpler. You can have more contact with him. Price is not an issue. I just want to invest and will not participate in the management of their company!"

Karen nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will do my best!"
