Chapter 416 Swallowing 1 - Twenty Million Appetizers
Why does Thomas feel so dark?
This is a complex question.
Friends who are familiar with cosmology and physics know that black holes are not something special. They are just a possible existence form of celestial bodies, nothing more.
From a strict physical perspective, the greater the mass of the black hole, the more things it will absorb, making it more and more difficult to maintain its own existence.
The romance of physics lies in the fact that it reveals a hair-raising possibility, that is, the basic principles of the universe are unified with the organizational form of human society and the existence of human beings themselves.
It sounds confusing, but if you focus the abstract theory on Cheng Daqi’s strategies and behaviors in making decisions, you can see the actual development context.
When he gradually stepped onto the stage of history from nothing, his basic base was naturally formed.
From the staunch supporters represented by Themir and Li Haiping, to those who have ulterior motives represented by Wolfe and Achilles, to Rugru, Elu and others. Reese and his ilk, these figures are like different parts, and when combined into a large instrument, they create sufficiently attractive possibilities.
At first, he took advantage of the situation to enter the game. Now, he has become a faction of his own, the kind of faction that can negotiate terms with California Cows.
However, great strength comes from enough relational links, which require maintenance costs.
Chengdaqi must satisfy Wolfe's need for progress, old Crusoe's greed, Lisa's realization of her own value, and even Li Haiping's hobby of playing the godfather.
Although Lao Li behaves like Old White Rabbit in front of Mr. Cheng, in essence, he is the same as other partners of Mr. Cheng.
He is over fifty years old, full of ambition, and has found the meaning of life in his business of making a total black glove.
All of this requires Cheng Daqi to stride forward.
The private prisons operated by Crusoe, Gru and others are part of the way forward. By extending their tentacles to the field of outsourcing public services to local governments, the power of Chengdaqi can further obtain huge benefits. Such benefits It is by no means limited to the economic field.
This is a direct erosion of government power by private power!
Thomas is not a fool who doesn’t understand anything. He is not decisive enough or smart enough, but at least he is cautious enough.
Cheng Daqi left, and Old Crusoe took his notebook and calculated what to do with the $400 million.
Of course he has an actuary under him who can help him, but Old Crusoe still hopes that he can have a rough plan first so that he can supervise the following employees to implement it in detail.
Mr. Cheng said that 50 million dollars was too little, and then said 30 to 70 cents, which was what they could pay out of the 400 million dollars.
"Father, I." The fat young man regretted it after he spoke.
There is an emotion in his heart that cannot be expressed. He understands what his father and his friends are doing. He wants to say that it is not appropriate to do so, but because of his own position, he cannot say it. .
"What's wrong?" Old Crusoe didn't even raise his head, lying on the table and continuing to count.
“I don’t quite understand how to raise the 400 million yuan you just mentioned. If you find relevant civil servants and congressmen, they may not necessarily have so much money to participate.”
The difference between the Fat Young Master and Lisa is that Lisa is not yet familiar with her identity as a capitalist, while the Fat Young Master comes from a capitalist family.
He understands the principle of sailing against the current if he does not advance or retreat. In an era when the value of knives is getting faster and faster, if the capital appreciation rate is not fast enough, then the assets will shrink.
Therefore, he could only let go of the paranoia in his heart that he did not dare to speak to his father, and asked about the specific arrangements.
“Ha, they are not as poor as you think. In addition, this special financing can also be regarded as a scarce resource. If they do not have enough funds, they can introduce this resource to others. ”
Old Crusoe and Mr. Cheng didn’t discuss these details at all, because they both knew how to operate it.
"The interest rate difference is only 0.5%. Father, can this be considered a scarce resource?"
The fat man doesn't quite understand. According to the consensus between Old Crusoe and Mr. Cheng, the private prison project Financing companies will issue corporate bonds at a super-market interest rate of 0.5%.
This kind of corporate bonds are actually not very competitive in the market environment, because many companies’ corporate bonds can offer interest rates that are one point higher than the general interest rate (Evergrande Commercial Paper is a corporate bond kind of).
"Hahaha, look, you still lack experience. Don't start your crappy company. Come and be the manager of the financing company we are about to set up.
I will arrange a few jobs for you. A capable broker, Benny is enough for Chan. Let them take you and experience the real swordsmanship of the United States."
Old Crusoe's ridicule was heartbreaking. The fat young man moved his mouth, but he did not dare to refute after all.
He is a person with average talents and a clear self-understanding. Mr. Cheng, who started later and with a lower starting point than him, has become his father's leader. After struggling for so long, he has not been able to achieve anything, but he has been struggling for so long. Nothing was done.
"Yes, father. So why is it a scarce resource?"
That is to say, he is Old Crusoe's biological son. Old Deng gave him a fierce look and explained.
“This is a guarantee. This project is also endorsed by Crusoe Real Estate and Xizhou Logistics. The 50 basis points excess interest is a guaranteed profit.
And if the project is completed, their profits can be converted into equity of the listed company after the private prison is listed. This will be even more, and they can easily make several times the profit.
Domo, hey. ”
At the end, the old father sighed deeply.
——
It is afternoon in America, and it is early morning in China.
Cao Yueyue was woken up by her mother. Even if you are Mr. Cao, you are still Xiao Cao at home. If you sleep a little longer, you will be criticized easily.
“Get up, it’s almost eight o’clock now, if you can’t afford it, be careful your boss will fire you!”
My mother turned on the light in the bedroom, and Xiao Cao was in bed. She moved, pulled the quilt up and wrapped it around her head, and murmured an explanation.
"Mom, don't worry, no one will fire me if he fires me. I don't have to go so early this morning, I work the night shift."
Mr. Cheng is in the United States, because of the time difference Yes, the management of Shanhaiguan has implemented a rotating morning and evening shift system to cooperate with Chengdu's cross-time zone office work.
Xiao Cao doesn't have to go to the company in the morning, but she will get off work until 1:30 tonight before getting off work - just in time to cooperate with the CEO in holding an online morning briefing at the end of the day.
The morning here refers to the morning of Saint-Loduo, after all, Mr. Cheng is the boss.
"I've prepared a meal for you. You get up and go back to sleep after eating."
What can Xiao Cao say? She struggled to get out of the succubus-like bed and began to Go about your day.
While eating the food cooked by my mother, I also listen to my mother’s nagging.
"Private companies are all the same. No matter what the boss says, he won't hesitate when hiring you. Hey, it means that your education is not high enough and you can't take the public examination."
"Stop, I am now a senior executive of the company. "Mom, with a salary of more than 40,000 yuan a month, you still expect me to take the civil service exam. I earn more than many civil servants in a year!" (This salary setting is no problem.) "Then how can you get married and work every day?" Day or night, if you ask me, I'd better find someone."
"I'm done eating. There's something going on at the company, so I'll go over first!"
"You're the one? Take two bites, this kid."
Living with your parents means you can enjoy the warmth of family, but sometimes you will inevitably suffer mental torture.
Xiao Cao, who escaped from home, did not go to the company, but went directly to the filming location of "Farming".
Although she is not the specific person in charge of "Farming Bar", as a close confidant of Mr. Cheng, she needs to ask questions about everything within the company, which can be regarded as helping Mr. Cheng encourage others.
That’s why she was convinced that as long as she didn’t behave like a monster, Cheng Daqi wouldn’t be able to drive her away.
Many people think that factions and cronies only exist in feudal dynasties and government agencies. In fact, it is similar in companies. At least Xiao Cao never thought that he got the position of assistant to the president based on his ability.
In fact, she didn't realize that just having this understanding and attitude was enough to prove her talent.
Subordinates who can humbly recognize their position, push things forward as hard as possible, and follow the leader's goals closely are actually very valuable.
After receiving the notice that Cao Yueyue was coming to see the scene, Zhao Ying rushed over at short notice. As soon as she saw Mr. Cao, she started to complain.
"Sister Cao, the cooperation between Shanhaiguan and Jiajiahaowu has affected the reputation of "Farming Bar". On the scarves, there are many people who are yin and yang in the super words about us."
< br>Many people think that being a leader means lying around doing nothing and getting paid, while subordinates do the work and take the credit themselves.
It can only be said that this understanding is too biased. At least Xiao Cao was still very worried when faced with Zhao Ying's complaints.
The reputation of "Farming" was affected by the failure of Jiajiahaoshi. She knew that she could not solve this problem by herself, but she still wanted to give Zhao Ying some encouragement and support.
So, after thinking about it, Mr. Cao gave instructions.
“The Jiajiahaowu matter is more complicated than you think. Mr. Dong has already been fired because of this. The company has a plan for how to handle the next step. Don’t worry too much about the short-term impact on public opinion.
By the way, the live broadcast you did to help farmers through "Farm Bar" is of great social value. I will arrange relevant public opinion promoters to promote it, which can be used to hedge against the unfavorable situation in public opinion. ”
< br>
Zhao Ying beamed almost immediately. Why did she complain to Xiao Cao?
Isn’t it because Mr. Cao has many resources and can solve the problem?
In Shanhaiguan, the structure after Dong Zecheng's abdication belongs to the dual-core system of Yang Yuan and Xiao Cao. Yang Yuan is responsible for the development and management of the company's general direction, and Xiao Cao is responsible for helping Cheng Cheng implement specific projects. One internally.
It’s hard to say who has the most power, but Zhao Ying belongs to Chengdu, so she will naturally be more inclined to ask Xiao Cao for help.
“The live broadcast effect of helping farmers is really good. We have only done two episodes and have already helped the villagers sell more than 400,000 yuan of agricultural products. If we continue to do it, the profit from this alone may be Covering production costs”
Xiao Cao smiled, looked at the director team filming in the distance, and said to Zhao Ying.
“Mr. Cheng has clear opinions on the model of live streaming. Let’s do it first.”
She is a close confidant of Mr. Cheng and understands that Dong Zecheng has other appointments and also understands that Mr. Cheng Regarding the follow-up arrangements for Shanhaiguan, it’s just that there are many things that there is no need to explain clearly to Zhao Ying.
“I have another thought during this period. Now that summer is here, the scenery in the countryside is beautiful. I want to do a fan event and invite some people to come here to experience the scenery in the countryside.
At the time When designing the program, we chose this place because of its value in developing tourism and vacation projects. Starting from inviting fans to experience it, we will improve and understand the needs step by step, so as to better operate this place in the future. What do you think of this? Can I do the activity? ”
Everyone is working hard. Mr. Cheng has established his own capital empire. He is the leader. Although some of his actions may not be particularly appropriate or ethical, from the perspective of changing the world, his influence is still somewhat of.
Zhao Ying was originally just a girl who wanted to sell her youth in exchange for resources, but now, with the help of Shanhaiguan, she has transformed and grown into a truly independent woman with her own career.
Capital is not necessarily bad. When it can promote social development and production progress, it has realistic positivity. This is undeniable.
Of course, if someone cares about the gray relationship between Mr. Cheng and Zhao Ying, that is another problem.
In fact, the opportunity was always there. Mr. Cheng also needed reliable people at that time, and Zhao Ying was willing to let Mr. Cheng make the bet.
The key point here is that any dream of making absolute fairness and justice easy to come into the world seems too romantic.
"Okay, look at the arrangements. By the way, have the guests for the next episode not been decided yet?"
Xiao Cao was attracted by the message on his phone and replied absentmindedly.
Mr. Cheng, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, issued new task arrangements, which shocked Mr. Cao.
Zhao Ying misunderstood Mr. Cao’s meaning, and she hurriedly responded.
"It's not easy to choose. Those candidates are all excellent. It still depends on what you and Mr. Cheng want."
The selection process of the program guests is open, but Zhao Ying is showing her disapproval of Cao Yueyue. Support for your decision - no matter who you want to go to, I understand.
Xiao Cao raised his head speechlessly and said.
"Wang Xiaoxiao will come, please prepare. There will be a huge amount of traffic then."
Zhao Ying confirmed in disbelief.
"Wang Xiaoxiao? Wang Xiaoxiao, who has good things for everyone?"
Mr. Cao replied speechlessly.
"Yes, Mr. Cheng spent 20 million to acquire Jiajia Haowu from Wang Xiaoxiao. Now, we have to clean up the mess of Jiajia Haowu little by little."
She As Mr. Cheng's assistant, I feel a little desperate inside. Mr. Cheng's style of play is too abstract.
The leader's pace was too fast. Cao Yueyue was already trying her best to keep up, but she still felt helpless about not being able to keep up.
If the bad relationship between Jiajiahaowu and Shanhaiguan is regarded as a grand marketing, then Chengdu has spent tens of millions to buy a wave of headlines across the Internet, and at the same time bought a mature e-commerce team and technical team.
It seems like a loss but also worth it. At least Cao Yueyue couldn't think of this way of playing it even if she tried hard.
Very new and very creative.
