Chapter 138 PPYI Payment
Chen Mo fanned the smoke, frowning in depression.

This He Jian, why did he have a problem with him, he didn't offend him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... It's my first time smoking a cigar..." He Jian got up quickly and helped Chen Mo fan the smoke.

"It's okay." Chen Mo said, took out his mobile phone to check the time, and said, "How about going to eat hot pot, I haven't eaten hot pot for a long time."

"Okay. Go to Lao Shufeng, the whole super spicy base that can only be eaten in my hometown." Bai Xiaoou snapped his fingers.

Luo Chen's face was full of depression: "I'm still at work."

"Go to Hammer class and go out to inspect with Chairman Bai." Chen Mo laughed.

"Let's go, you go and tell the chef to let him take up your job part-time." Bai Xiaoou picked up his big backpack.

The group went out to the restaurant and got into Chen Mo's pickup.

He Jian took a few glances at the interior of the car: "Is this a Ford Raptor?"

"Ford F150, high quality."

"This car costs 50 million in China. But I heard that cars in the United States are quite cheap..."

"The full amount is just over US$[-], which is indeed a lot cheaper than in China." Chen Mo started the car, and saw Bai Xiaoou opened his bag and took out a thick pocket of cards...

"I almost forgot. This is the TBL dining card, for you." Bai Xiaoou took out two thick stacks, and there was a black magnet on the card, which was very similar to a bank card.It has the words 'TBL - PPYI' on it.

TBL, T is Tangxia Yipin, B is Barbona, L is Waylon. PPYI is a financial payment company...

In the future, the Chef Academy to be built will also be named after TBL.At the same time, the restaurants under the three companies will also have TBL's name on the back of the sign.

The TBL dining card is the same as the chain supermarket card.With money on the card, you can spend it at any restaurant under the TBL Alliance.

"so much?"

"Three of 320." Bai Xiaoou smiled wryly. After taking out the three-chapter black card, he stuffed the other cards into the cabinet: "These three-chapter black cards are for you, Chen Chen and Chen Xiao. Number 00000... 5, here $100 million on one card. $10 each on the other two cards."

"So much!" Chen Mo was stunned for a moment: "How can I finish it?"

"This is from Roger Garrison, expressing his heart, and asking me to convey my apology to you." Bai Xiaoou shrugged, very speechless: "The old dog is so bad."

Because of Garrison Investment Company's holding of Tangxia Yipin.

……

If Garrison Investment Company is not allowed to hold the controlling stake, it is impossible for Tangxia Yipin Company to acquire the tickets for the Napa Valley project.

Bai Xiaoou really felt sorry for Chen Mo about this matter, but he himself had no choice...

If Garrison Investment Company wants to control Tangxia Yipin, they can actually choose to inject capital.As long as Bai Xiaoou nods, Chen Mo will definitely agree.

However, capital injection and the choice to acquire the shares of existing shareholders, through capital injection to control, requires a third-party organization to re-evaluate Tangxia Yipin...

Garrison Investment Company is eager to develop the Napa Valley project, and can't wait too long. It is simpler and rude to acquire the shares of existing shareholders.As for this, the one who sacrificed the most was Chen Mo. There was no way, he was the largest shareholder in the company.

By injecting capital into the holding, Garrison Investment Company will spend more money.From the perspective of long-term interests, it is better to directly acquire the existing shares... Now Tangxia Yipin has sufficient cash and good profits.Continue to inject capital into Tangxia Yipin, it is Chen Mo and others who take advantage.

Directly buying the shares in Chen Mo's hands and using the tickets for the Napa project as a bargaining chip for holding Tang Xia Yipin, it looks a little ugly.

"I'm so sorry." Chen Mo rolled his eyes: "Can the money on this card be cashed?"

Bai Xiaoou spread his hands and said with a smile: "No. The TBL Alliance only issues 25 black cards now, and enjoys a 100% discount for any restaurant under the TBL Alliance. There is [-] million US dollars on the card, even if you suddenly go bankrupt one day, this I will definitely not worry about eating and drinking in my life."

"Get out, even if you go bankrupt, I can't go bankrupt." Chen Mo took the three black cards and put them in his pocket: "This card, it seems that you have to log in to some website to complete the information before you can use it?"

"This is a catering card jointly developed by PPYI Payment Company and Wells Fargo Bank. There is a website on the back of the card. After you log in, enter your personal information to activate it, and then you can use it." Bai Xiaoou rubbed his chin. PPYI Payment Company is just a newly established company. It is also an online company invested by Roger Garrison: "In addition to the three black cards, there are five gold cards and fifteen silver cards in the pocket. There are 1 U.S. dollars in the gold card. Knife, enjoy a 5% discount from the Catering Alliance. Silver card includes [-] dollars, and enjoy a [-]% discount. All of these need to be excited to use after logging in to the website..."

"The remaining 1 cards are ordinary top-up membership cards, and each card has [-] dollars. After spending [-] dollars, it can be upgraded to a premium membership card and enjoy a [-]% discount. At the same time, each card has its own The points method, and at the end of the year, there will be large-scale activities..."

Spending over $[-]?

This shit is unrealistic for ordinary people.

There is also this black card of my own, which has 100 million dollars in it, so I have to eat it for the year of the monkey?

At Dodgson's, for example, the most expensive single item seems to be the Bright Beef Tomahawk Steak, which costs $700 a serving, enough for two or three people.

Under normal circumstances, you can order directly when you enter the restaurant, and there is no need to order dishes in advance... For example, ordinary Wagyu beef, a Wagyu filet steak is more than 300 US dollars.With other dishes, $[-] is all you can eat...

This is already a very high consumption.

But... Many high-end restaurants can order food, such as a few catties of top-quality caviar and white truffles on a whim.

Another example is wanting to have an authentic state banquet at Tangxia Yipin...

These are very expensive.

He Jian was dazed with a cigar in his mouth, what 100 million, [-]... dollars?

Dining card?
is it possible?
A series of doubts appeared in He Jian's heart...

The two are talking to themselves, is this pretending?

He Jian stared at Luo Chen...

Luo Chen chuckled, and patted Bai Xiaoou's shoulder: "The TBL dining card has come down so quickly, and our restaurant hasn't posted the label yet."

"The sign will be sent out soon." Bai Xiaoou said as he took out another stack of white cards, more than a dozen: "These are ordinary recharge cards, one thousand dollars each, spend them. They are all from 'PPYI' money……"

"Then let's have a big dinner tonight."

"These cards won't come into effect until next month, which is May."

"Does this card require any special equipment?"

"Use the Poss machine of Wells Fargo Bank. There will be an announcement tomorrow, and the new Poss machine will be issued by the logistics department..."

Chen Mo looked at Bai Xiaoou's bulging schoolbag: "How many meal cards did you bring back?"

Bai Xiaoou had a rippling smile on his face: "The first batch of white cards (ordinary membership cards) consisted of [-] pieces, all of which were sent by PPYI payment company, and the money in them was also real gold and silver. I don't want to risk my old face today , snatched a schoolbag, almost [-] cards. Each of these cards contained [-] dollars."

Chen Mo smoked his cigar, drove the car into the parking lot, got out of the car, and frowned: "You and Garrison have a good relationship?"

"An old guy, quite humorous." Bai Xiaoou smiled: "He created the PPYI payment company..."

PPYI Payment Company, a newly established financial payment company, is similar to Alipay in China and PayPal in the United States.

The first product launched by the company is the TBL card. Behind the PPYI payment company is Kennett Investment Bank and Wall Street Capital represented by Roger Garrison.

Kennett Investment Bank is a listed company, and Roger Garrison is one of the bank's major shareholders...

Acquired Barbona Company, controlled Weilun Company, and later controlled Tangxia Yipin, as well as the Napa Valley project, built the TBL Chef Academy, and finally ushered in the PPYI payment company.

Don't look at the current layout is still very small.But this booth has already been rolled out...

Americans are slow to accept new things. Chinese people have long been accustomed to mobile payment, but Americans still like to swipe their cards for consumption...

TBL cards are just a hastily launched project, their goal is to pay online, and even defeat paypal payment.

Paypal payment, as far as the total population of the United States is concerned, the user group of this payment system is very small. As soon as the PPYI payment company showed up, it directly gave the TBL Alliance a gift of tens of millions of dollars, which is equivalent to advertising fees.

They are not losing out on this business. The TBL alliance and the three catering groups, based on the current data, the three companies have nearly [-] to [-] high-, medium-, and low-end restaurants in the United States.That is nearly [-] advertising spaces, there is no more cost-effective business than this, and the restaurant will also cooperate with PPYI payment company to promote the consumption point card produced by their company.
