Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

  Chapter 359 The Neon Man Waving Banknotes

   soon proved that the new boss really looked at Xu Guoping differently.

  Because after meeting them, the new boss told him to wait here in the afternoon, and then prepare to go to New York with the new boss.

   "Xu, congratulations." Daniel was a little sour, "I said it long ago? You are a doctor from Stanford, and you will definitely be taken seriously."

   Although Xu Guoping was very happy, he still said modestly and low-key as usual: "Didn't the boss say so? Now everyone doesn't have to worry about being fired directly."

   "What do you think you are going to do in New York?"

   "I don't know." Xu Guoping was telling the truth, and he didn't want to guess first.

  It is necessary to work hard in front of the new boss, but now I can't figure out what he means, and it is not good to be sharp to my colleagues, especially the former boss.

   After going from the Xia Kingdom in the 1970s to the top universities in the United States, and after walking out of the school, he has experienced a lot of foreign difficulties. He is no longer young.

   Besides, at the age of 33, he is not allowed to be young and arrogant.

"Let's go to the nearby Idari restaurant for lunch to celebrate that we have temporarily saved our jobs." Daniel suggested, "Xu, you made such a suggestion today, do you see the boss's purpose for acquiring RIVA? We have to Talk more!"

Xu Guoping rarely felt the enthusiasm of his colleagues for him far beyond the past. After thinking about it, he said, "Actually, I think our crisis is probably not over yet. Director Daniel, maybe we need to work hard during this period to let 10 There is a more beautiful answer in the month, which proves our efforts."

   Four people who are worried about the future are going to have a serious meeting in the restaurant.

   And Xu Guoping took the time to call his girlfriend and said, "Jenny, are you okay?"

  The voice of the TV came from the other end of the phone, and his girlfriend Jennifer's voice was eager: "I'm okay, how about you? Have you met the new boss? Will the job change?"

   "I see." Xu Guoping laughed, "A good news, a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

   "…Listen to the good news first."

   "The good news is that the job won't change for the time being."

   "Great!" Jennifer said excitedly, "I knew you would do it. Since you won't be fired, what's the bad news?"

   "The bad news is, I have to go to New York with my new boss today, and you have to be home alone tonight."

   "...What!" Jennifer seemed to blame him for letting herself be a false alarm, and then said, "This matter is more important now, I don't mind. But it's really bad news that you can't eat the food you make."

   "I'll call you when I get to New York."

   "Don't worry, we'll celebrate when you come back." Jennifer said softly again, "I'm going to buy a set of clothes that you will definitely like..."

  Xu Guoping was secretly enthusiastic, and after laughing with her for a few more words, he said, "I want to discuss with Daniel and the others how to carry out the work in October. Let's talk here first. I love you."

   "Go!"

   Xu Guoping hung up the phone and looked forward to it.

  If the job can be stable or even further, then in a short time, maybe you will be able to buy your own house. At that time, if you propose again, you will be more confident.

  The best thing is to be able to get the reuse of the new boss and help him get the green card completely.

  But when I returned to the dining table, I felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.

   "What's the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Xu." Daniel looked at him with a complicated expression, "My friends in the finance department are willing to tell me now that the new boss is a Neon man, and they don't have any other company in the United States. Even if the office in the United States can be kept, But if we are employees of a foreign company in the US office, you want the company to help you apply for a green card..."

   Xu Guoping's expression changed suddenly and he fell silent.

   Then he smiled reluctantly and said, "I don't know what the boss's plan is yet. Regarding the green card, we can only take it slowly."

   However, his heart finally became uneasy, and at the same time he remembered why the boss asked him if he had a green card.

  These doubts, I don't know if there will be answers in the afternoon...

  …

Tao Zhiming just met with some fashion media bosses or editors in touch with Hector at noon, introduced the Tokyo Fashion Festival, and then also said that the executive committee will send a formal invitation letter, and someone will contact them Arrange round-trip airfare.

  The Neon side pays and gets paid, which can be regarded as a business trip. Besides, Hector is also a well-known rich man in the US elementary school after all. He touted Tao Zhiming for a while. How could these people mind knowing another rich man?

   As for whether he secretly complained that Neon people are really rich, and that people who spend so much money are stupid and have more money, Tao Zhiming doesn't care.

  Anyway, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have arranged special expenses for the cost of inviting international media to Tokyo to report.

   After returning to Hector's company, Tao Zhiming first asked Qianyuan Jiumina to contact the sales director of Gulfstream, and called Xu Guoping over.

   There were only the two of them in the room, and Xu Guoping was very uneasy, because there was more anxiety about the future.

   After thinking about it, he still asked: "Boss, what are the arrangements for going to New York today? I can make preparations first. If you have any questions you need to ask me, I will answer what I know."

  Tao Zhiming looked at him, suddenly laughed, and asked in Chinese, "Eight years in the United States? Now more than 50,000 yuan a year, is a Stanford doctor so worthless?"

   Xu Guoping was taken aback. He didn't know why the boss could speak Chinese, and his pronunciation... very pure. So he tentatively replied: "The company has already given a lot... Boss, do you have a lot of business dealings with Xia Guo?"

   "Forget it, I have a company in Xiangdao." Tao Zhiming said after that and asked, "Are you going to get a green card first, and then apply for naturalization after you meet the conditions?"

Xu Guoping didn't know why he asked these questions, but this matter was very important to him. Now that he asked, Xu Guoping said, "Yes. When he entered Mr. Hector's company, he promised me this. Take it down. I have an H1B visa, and it has been 3 years now, and if I still cannot get a green card within 3 years, I will not be able to continue to stay in the United States.”

  Tao Zhiming does not judge his idea of ​​staying in the United States, the mainstream of the times is like this.

   As long as he is useful to him, Tao Zhiming is quite willing to have such a person who has a special bond with him.

   So he smiled and asked, "Is your girlfriend American?"

"Yes…"

Tao Zhiming looked at him meaningfully: "Isn't it the most convenient way to get married and immigrate? Besides, you also have a work visa, and as a Stanford Ph.D., your annual income is not low. Why, you are 33 years old, and your girlfriend refuses? "

   Xu Guoping was silent for a while, and then said: "She said, I hope I can get married after getting a green card, because if I don't want to get married, I always have to be investigated by the immigration bureau."

Tao Zhiming nodded knowingly, and then asked: "You studied mechanical engineering and worked for RIVA for more than a year, don't you think it is overkill? Fluid machinery, if you go to a college to teach or a corresponding research institution, you will get the It should be easy to get a green card, right?"

  Although the United States has begun to restrict immigration, it tends to attract high-quality talents. Tao Zhiming actually wanted to know why he went to such a yacht company to do after-sales technology.

  Xu Guoping was silent for a while, then said truthfully: "The salary here is high, and the circle is bigger, I want to have more channels."

   He didn't mind Tao Zhiming's in-depth questions, the green card was indeed his important goal. The more carefully the boss asks these questions, the easier it will be to make a decision.

   Sure enough, Tao Zhiming nodded and said, "If I don't help you apply for a green card, will you simply resign?"

   "Boss." Xu Guoping also asked truthfully, "After RIVA was acquired by you, is it not a US company? You have to understand that my visa expired in less than three years."

   "Hector promised to help you apply for a green card. He wants to sell the company, but you didn't go to him?" Tao Zhiming asked with a smile.

   "He said, if you decide to lay me off, keep going back to his company. The green card application...is in the queue."

  Tao Zhiming smiled noncommittally, lined up, lined up a ghost.

  For people with top academic qualifications from top universities like Xu Guoping, it should be easy to apply. To put it bluntly, this is the squeeze of the American bosses for the labor force who wants to get the green card of the United States.

   First help to get the work visa. Of course, you can delay it as long as the visa is valid. If the official job changes, it will bring a lot of trouble.

   There is no doubt that what is in the queue is just an excuse. With Hector's financial resources, it is normal to have a lot of influence in the local bureaucracy. In fact, he is quite kind, after all, the salary he gives is good. Otherwise, it should not be difficult for Xu Guoping to change jobs. However, Xu Guoping chose to boil it.

   So Tao Zhiming said calmly: "If you want me to help you get a green card, it's very simple. But you need to get my trust and appreciation first."

   "How... can you help me with this?"

   "There are many ways." Tao Zhiming said calmly, "In the final analysis, it's not about money. If you are a millionaire and a multimillionaire now, and you have this degree, how difficult would it be to immigrate."

   On the contrary, he wondered why Xu Guoping made it so difficult. He didn't know if it was because he had been studying in school, he didn't know enough about the policies and ways of the United States, or he had other difficulties.

   But judging from his choice to work in the company and his willingness to accept after-sales work, this person is not naive. His hope is not only on the idea company founded by the rich and rich like Hector, but also on the local girlfriend who wants to achieve the goal through marriage. And the after-sales service of yachts is served by relatively rich people. Who knows if he has other ideas?

  Tao Zhiming wished he was already a bit shrewd and thoughtful.

   Xu Guoping said helplessly: "Millionaire..."

  I earn more than 50,000 yuan a year, plus the money I have to spend every year, how many years does it take to save one million?

  Tao Zhiming then chatted with him, talking about his major, talking about his knowledge of yacht technology, and occasionally interspersed with his domestic situation.

   Born in the countryside, his parents are still farming in China, and being able to come to Stanford to study for a Ph.D. is already a great leap in life.

  Tao Zhiming did not ask any questions about how he plans to arrange his parents in the future. He tried his best to investigate him from his study experience, work experience, knowledge reserve and career awareness that he showed now.

   Xu Guoping could of course hear his purpose. Xu Guoping believed that he could help him get a green card. After all, he was someone who could buy a yacht company with many years of history from Hector, and financial strength represented strength.

   While chatting, someone knocked on the door. I saw KPMG's Barron Berg walk in, and then said: "Mr. Tao, Alisha and Miss Jiu Minai have been in contact with RIVA's financial department. You said that there are other things to ask us this time. …”

   Tao Zhiming nodded, and before he spoke, Xu Guoping asked, "Boss, then I'll wait outside for a while."

   "It's okay, let's listen together."

Tao Zhiming's words made Xu Guoping's heart move, he sat down honestly, and heard the boss say to this person from KPMG: "I have some ideas about the video rental industry. I heard from a friend before that there is a company called Blockbuster in the United States. The model is quite good, I wonder if they have the possibility of being acquired?"

  Barron was stunned, another acquisition? Speaking of which, he really knew this, and immediately replied: "Mr. Tao is involved in many industries, and the news channels are also very wide. In fact, the acquisition of Blockbuster is indeed possible, but Mr. Wayne should have already talked to him now. almost."

   "Really?" Tao Zhiming thought that it was indeed October, but he had been busy with the Hokkaido Music Festival, yachts and various things before, so he couldn't take care of it.

   In the growth process of Netflix, the Blockbuster they subverted is the memory of a whole generation of people in the United States. Tao Zhiming only remembered that its founder sold the company this year, and the brilliant Blockbuster was actually driven by this Wayne. It's just that Tao Zhiming is very clear that Blockbuster's model is not difficult to handle. He is confident that he can do better than Wayne, and there is still a wider space in the future.

   So Tao Zhiming asked again: "Can Mr. Barron arrange for someone to contact the founder of Blockbuster? Details of their business model, asking price, Mr. Wayne's bid. If possible, I'm very interested."

   Of course Barron would not refuse, it was a new order, so he said: "I heard that the current price is negotiated between 16 million and 20 million yuan, Mr. Tao, your bottom line is..."

   "I can go out more than Mr. Wayne." Tao Zhi said succinctly, "How much you can help me talk about depends on your company's ability."

   "I understand!" Barron is very motivated. Although it is not as good as the 50 million yuan acquisition of RIVA, it is a new business after all, and it seems that this neon person is going to make a big splash in the US market.

   So he smiled and asked: "Mr. Tao, there will be more and more industries in the United States in the future, don't you need to buy some real estate in the United States?"

  Now in the United States, many places are filled with neon people waving banknotes to buy buildings, apartments and even villas.

   Maybe the one in front of you too!

Tao Zhiming just smiled: "It should be needed in the future, but I'm a bit picky about places. Mr. Barron, if there are suitable villas by the sea in New York, Los Angeles and Florida, you can help me pay attention and organize them. Send me the information."

   "Okay!" Barron was even more excited now.

  Xu Guoping looked at him with a bit of envy. As soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to buy another company and a villa for no less than 20 million yuan. He had so much money at such a young age.

Barron Berger confirmed that he will start a lot of business in the United States, and the starting point is from the acquisition. I am afraid that there will be a lot of needs in this area in the future, so I will do my best to ensure that RIVA's acquisition audit will be done well, and I will do my best to do it. Negotiated with Blockbuster to arrange villas in three places where his intentions were collected.

Tao Zhiming just nodded, and then said: "In addition, come with me to meet with the sales director of Gulfstream. I am going to book a private jet with them. It involves the corresponding procedures, and when the time comes, the neon I would like to ask Mr. Barron to help with the tax issues on the side."

   Xu Guoping looked at him in shock, private jet? And it's Gulfstream.

   At least 20 to 30 million yuan, right?

  Barron Berg didn't expect so much business this time, wouldn't it add up to the total transaction volume of nearly 100 million yuan? The fee for their services from KPMG will be a substantial amount.

  The Gulfstream is still contacting Tao Zhiming about the adjustment of the travel time. Tao Zhiming took this opportunity to chat with the elite of this well-known accounting firm with a wide range of information channels.

   During the whole process, Xu Guoping was listening by the side.

   When his beautiful subordinate finally came and said that the Gulfstream plane was ready, Tao Zhiming got up and went to Hector to say goodbye.

   Then, Xu Guoping sat in the stretched car of the former boss and was caught between the two bodyguards of the new boss and went to the airport.

   The car drove directly to the apron. After Xu Guoping got off the car, he saw the elegant and clean private plane in front of him, and his mind was actually quite dizzy.

  A private jet to New York?

   This is really an experience I have never had before…

"Mr. Tao, the new fund you mentioned must start as soon as possible. Even if there is no previous rate of return, at least it will not be worse than those funds in Huajie? My proposal, you should seriously consider it." Hector Shake hands with him under the plane gangway and said earnestly.

   These remarks made Barron and Xu Guoping move again. What he admired most about Hector was the financial aspect?

  Tao Zhiming smiled and said: "I will think about it. Then we meet in Idali, Hector."

   "I hope that when you arrive in Idali, you have already made a decision!"

   "How could it be so fast?"

  Jokes are jokes, but I was thinking of digging a new hole with Tao Ya, and I was able to talk to him in New York.

   "Let's go!" Tao Zhiming waved to Hector again and walked to the gangway first.

   Looking at the Gulfstream 4 in front of him, the latest generation of products, Tao Zhiming knew that the other party was looking for the best for him, and hoped that he would buy the most expensive one.

  The ground on the lower edge of the gangway was covered with a red carpet. Xu Guoping took a deep breath and looked at the back of Tao Zhiming who had already shaken hands with the sales director from Gulfstream.

   He doesn't need to show his strength to himself. He took himself to New York, why exactly?

   Xu Guoping stepped on the red carpet with mixed emotions and walked towards this top toy that symbolizes financial strength and status.

   The words of Tao Zhiming resounded in my heart again: If you are a millionaire and a millionaire now, and you have this degree, what is the difficulty in immigrating?
