Wall Street Legend

  Chapter 157 New Mobile Phone

  Since the crude oil futures closed, Ye Dongqing always felt that her life had fallen into a boring and tedious state. How should I put it, it seemed that she lacked a little passion. Warrants are not as interesting as oil futures.

Thanks to the professional managers who run the company so well that he has almost nothing to do, stays in the office and becomes a mascot, whenever a big customer comes to the door, there is always a salesman who asks the customer to meet him , and then told how capable this young Chinese was, earning hundreds of millions of dollars in half a year.

Laura went to the UK, while Zhao Liuli boarded at the school. This is one of the reasons why Ye Dongqing was bored. Yesterday he even took the initiative to go to a golf club and asked the caddy to play golf with him, and then switched to tennis... That's how boring basketball...is.

  Rich people are also human beings. Unless they are drunk and dreamy every day, how can they live a fulfilling and interesting life every day.

  Time has entered April, New York residents finally took off their heavy cotton jackets, the trees on the side of the road sprouted buds, and Central Park turned green again.

  The Adolph School where Zhao Liuli works is planning to organize a spring outing to Washington soon. To this, Ye Dongqing can only say that it is indeed a private school. He never encountered such a good thing when he was in school.

After a few months, it is estimated that Ferrari finally remembered that there was still him as a user, and sent three sports cars at once. There is no way, if you want to buy Enzo, you must become a VIP first, even if you are a billionaire, so I had to buy it with other cars. This kind of marketing routine is really powerful.

In fact, what Ye Dongqing only wanted was Enzo. After the other two cars were delivered, he had never driven them at all. He planned to wait until the annual meeting as a prize for a certain employee, or send one to London as a gift for Laura. Anyway, it was idle. It's a waste to use them, and I won't drive them until Bugatti gets them.

  April 7th.

  I was still wearing my pajamas while eating lunch. I planned to buy a plane ticket to Silicon Valley later to see how the new company was doing. I accidentally received a call from Mr. Mike Howell, a real estate agent.

As soon as the connection was made, I heard the other party shouting in an excited voice: "Good news! Mr. Ye, the owner of that small island has agreed to sell it for 65 million US dollars, and accepts payment in installments. Interested in it, you can get it in a few days, everything has been removed from the island!"

   "Really, but I have already bought a small island in the Bahamas, and I have no idea of ​​​​purchasing real estate for the time being, but..."

Mike Howell's heart sank when he heard the previous few words. The price of that island was too high. Only Ye Dongqing had visited it recently, and he expressed his intention to buy it. Moreover, he saw it in the newspaper, this The little Chinese guy made a lot of money recently!

   hurriedly asked, "But what?"

  "If the price can be more suitable, such as reduced to 60 million US dollars, I will still buy it in installments. Of course, I am willing to provide assets as collateral."

It’s rare for someone to come to you on their own initiative. Ye Dongqing doesn’t want to miss it. It will be stressful for him to take out more than 60 million US dollars at one time. There will be no problem affecting the liquidity of funds if he pays in installments. You can use Facebook’s shares as collateral for the loan. Or let the Freshwater Investment Fund, which is about to pay a large amount of taxes and fees before April 15th, pay for the purchase, so as to pay less taxes.

He had already thought about purchasing a private jet in the name of the company before, but finally decided to wait two more years until he had saved enough money to buy Boeing and Airbus large passenger jets. Besides, he had already owned a small business jet, so he didn’t have much to buy desire.

   "Wow, that's a lot of money, and I honestly don't think the seller would agree to lower the price that much."

Before Mike Howell finished speaking, Ye Dongqing interrupted: "Forget it, anyway, it won't be sold for a while, and there are not many high-quality customers like me who are willing to pay a big price for it. Maybe I should Considering going to remote places like Wyoming and Montana to buy a resort with great scenery, it is better than living comfortably on a small forty-eight-acre island, not to mention that it is hard to say whether it is an island in the strict sense.”

  The higher the selling price, the higher the commission the real estate agent can get. Most of this part of the fee is paid by the seller, so he is not polite at all at this moment, and cut off five million dollars.

There is a raised remote control stick on the mobile phone. These days, the style of the fool’s phone is very strange. It has been poked several times. This reminds Ye Dongqing that he should change to another mobile phone recently. The luxury accessories series of Nokia that he couldn’t afford last time The functions of Vertu's mobile phone have not changed much, and the style is much better than the current one, and the price is as high as 30,000 to 40,000 US dollars.

   "...I'm asking the seller's thoughts now. I don't guarantee that the negotiation will be successful, but as long as you have the sincerity to buy, it should be slightly cheaper, OK?"

   "Then I'll wait for your reply."

  After leaving this sentence, Ye Dongqing hung up the phone, lazily got up to change clothes, and really wanted to go out to buy a mobile phone. There is a Vertu mobile phone store on Fifth Avenue.

Speaking of Vertu, in 1998, the chief designer of Nokia tried to turn mobile phones into luxury accessories. Nokia executives were very interested, so the company was born in 2000. It just released its first product last year, using a large number of sapphire and Made of ruby, equipped with a physical keyboard, equipped with Symbian system, it seems that it is not made for ordinary people.

Ye Dongqing was still an ordinary person when he went back to buy a mobile phone last time. He couldn’t afford his new mobile phone, so he could only look at it on the poster. This time he drove out and found a Vertu store. He directly asked someone to give him the most advanced one, black The crocodile leather is matched with gold, and there is a ruby ​​in the center of the button. After reading it, I swiped the card decisively to buy it, and put the card in the old mobile phone into the new mobile phone. Leaving aside the bad use experience, there is no major problem with the appearance and material. That's enough, a total of 46,000 US dollars, to buy a little happiness.

  The cute-looking female clerk wrote her number directly on the invoice, and her eyes did not hide her deep meaning. Ye Dongqing was not interested in her, but she still sighed that her eyes were so vicious that she probably recognized her credit card.

As soon as he went out and sat in the red sports car designed against humanity, he heard the ringing of the mobile phone. After seeing the number, he thought it was unlucky. The first number received by the new mobile phone was actually from Little Edward. After connecting, he said angrily: "No cooperation, no I will give you advice, and I will not lend you money, well, what can you say?"

Little Edward, who was far away at Harvard University, almost exploded in anger. After taking a few deep breaths, he gritted his teeth and smiled: "You may have misunderstood something. We cooperated very well last time, didn't we? You make money, and I make money. Everyone is happy... "

   Wrist hurts today, write more tomorrow ╮(￣▽￣"")╭
