Chapter 1033 Whose cheese moved?

Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Cuban moved to Dallas as an adult.

At the age of 30, he sold the computer consulting company he founded and became an enviable billionaire. Later, the online broadcast company she founded only operated for four years, and its comprehensive valuation was as high as 5 billion US dollars. This made Cuban, who was over 40, adhered to the concept of "everything is for victory" and decided to make the company's development prospects unclear. However, Wall Street made the decision to sell the company as a whole at the juncture that high-tech Internet companies are highly praised, and thus successfully attracted the favor of the Internet upstart and founder of Yahu Company Yang Wenyuan.

Although the prices of online broadcasters have rarely been reduced after a series of operations, Cuban received nearly two billion US dollars in cash after saying that the company sold it to Yang Wenyuan of Yahu, which can be squandered by him.

A few months ago, when he had no large amount of cash to use, the mansion in Beverly Trausdale Manor was bought by Candice, the darling of the Hollywood, and changed her name to the Ginovia Manor, which confirmed her title of "Ginovia Princess", which made Cuban regard it as the greatest shame in his life. So when he learned that there was a larger and slightly lower-priced manor on the east side of the Ginovia Manor for sale, he immediately flew from Dallas to Los Angeles, driving his red Beetle antique car from the Emden factory in the 1960s, and as the real estate agent entered the manor, carefully surveyed, and prepared to take action.

The estate is eight acres wide. Although the terrain is slightly undulating, the total area is only slightly lower than that of Jack Warner Manor on Angelo Avenue, one of DreamWorks' three giants, David purchased in the early 1990s.

Jack Warner Manor has a history of 60 years. It not only witnessed the rise of Hollywood, but also preserved a floor where Napoleon stood when he proposed to Josephine. Therefore, although Cuban felt that the price of the mansion was a bit too high for $30 million, he was still ready to buy it.

The neighbor is the mansion of Candice, the darling of Hollywood. Two blocks away is the mansion of Allen, one of the founders of Microsoft. Although the mansion has been disrepair and dilapidated, just judging by its area, Cuban is very satisfied!

However, just when he asked about the relevant procedures of the real estate agent, the strange expression of the real estate agent who answered a call instantly made Cuban feel sank.

really!

The real estate agent said with a frustration that the mansion had been bought ten minutes ago!

Bought it?

When he arrived here, the mansion was still for sale. He came in and just looked at the garden and checked the outdoor swimming pool. He stayed in the dilapidated house for less than ten minutes. How could the mansion be sold?

Kuban was furious and grabbed the real estate agent's neck and said, "Are you playing tricks on me?"

Seeing that the large commission could be obtained, the real estate agent was very upset at this time. Seeing that Cuban clenched his fists and was furious, he could understand his emotions, so he quickly explained. "I'm sorry, the company said that a customer looked at the door at the door and consulted the situation of the mansion and made a decision. The relevant documents were being sent over. If you want to know who bought it here, you will probably be clear to the door at the mansion now..."

"The buyer is still at the gate? Are you sure?"

"Yes! The company sends people to send a contract, which will only take effect after signing it..."

The instigation of the real estate agent made Cuban rekind hope. He called his bodyguard and rushed to the door of the mansion immediately. But when he saw the woman wearing sunglasses at the gate, he couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that he wouldn't be so lucky, right?

David was telling Fu Zhengyi how he bought Jack Warner Manor and how he sold the so-called "historical value" things in the mansion. The harsh and harsh brakes of the classic car made his bodyguards rushed over immediately, staring at Cuban who got out of the classic car and his accompanying bodyguards.

Candice saw Cuban's face clearly, but then exclaimed. "It's him again?"

Fu Zhengyi, who was facing away from the door, turned his face and couldn't help but feel happy. "It seems that this guy is going to be disappointed again..."

Although the girl holding a young man's arm was wearing a sun hat and sunglasses, Cuban recognized who she was at a glance, so he guessed that the young man was the boy who last time he used the access control system to ridicule himself "can't afford it". He pointed at him in anger. "Why are you again?"

Founder of Online Broadcasting Corporation?

Then what's going on?

Fu Zhengyi's lips raised. "What? Are you finally rich and can buy a house?"

The great humiliation suffered several months ago tortured Cuban all the time, and his face instantly turned red. "What did you say?"

"I mean, can you finally come to Beverly to buy a house with cash? But it's a pity, I don't like being neighbors with disgusting people," Fu Zhengyi raised his wrist and looked at the time before continuing. "Of course, you can still stand here before I bought this mansion! But once the contract is signed, you must leave me immediately! You won't be welcome here in the future!"

I was expelled again?

I was actually expelled again?

Cuban couldn't believe his ears!

The real estate agent who followed him out of the mansion saw that there seemed to be three-party people at the gate. The girl wearing sunglasses and sun hats seemed to be in the same group as the young oriental man. The American who was surrounded by four bodyguards was David, a famous Beverly Hills villa. The real estate agent's desire to provoke trouble immediately faded, and hurried over to Cuban's ear and introduced David's identity.

Candice, the darling of Hollywood, is unwilling to provoke her. As a man, she still has to have such cultivation.

David, one of DreamWorks' three giants?

Cuban doesn't think he can afford to mess with him. He is a serious rich man. No matter whether it is reputation or social status, he is a nouveau riche like him who cannot reach it even if he works hard.

Therefore, although he wanted to pounce on him and strangle the young man Fu Zhengyi to death, Cuban also knew that if he had a conflict with the other party, the consequences would be unbearable. Even if he was full of anger, he could only get into his antique car in shame and quickly left as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.

Watching the antique car go away, David frowned and asked what was going on with this guy?

Candice held back the laughter and said the situation, David laughed. "So that's it! No wonder he is as vulgar as a red neck! Such a guy who gets rich overnight naturally thinks that as long as he likes it, it should belong to him. But although American society advocates the American dream, it will take a long time for such a person to truly enter the upper class..."

Fu Zhengyi said strangely. "Red Neck? What does it mean?"

"Redneck is a saying, and its definition has undergone several changes! It initially refers to those peasant brothers who worked in the fields all day long and had their necks sunburned red. Politicians affectionately called them 'Redneck', just like the 'glorious working people' of your country. In order to win the support of workers, the miners' union in the middle of the century called the union members with southern accents friendly "Redneck". The union was a fashionable product at that time, and the rednecks were very proud for a while. But since the hippie movement in the 1970s, Rednecks gradually became derogatory, and trendy young people used this word to mock those uneducated, poor and rustic farmers! In the 1990s, Rednecks was a completely insulting derogatory term, specifically referring to those racist conservatives who were stubborn, rough and unreasonable, resisting all modern civilizations..."

Davie's erudition made Fu Zhengyi admire him very much. "David, you are so awesome!"

"This is not awesome. The name of Red Neck can only be said privately. If the media knows that I call a new billionaire, I will also cause trouble..."

After entering the mansion, I found a clean place to sit down. During the gap between the official contract from the real estate agent, Fu Zhengyi briefly explained what he had encountered during this period. Please ask David to help analyze it from the perspective of an American.

He took out two cigars and handed them to him. David asked back, "Fu, what kind of society do you think America is?"

"Uh...it should be said to be a society ruled by law, a country that is quite friendly to foreigners..."

After listening carefully to him, David shook his head. "Fu! Have you ever thought about a question: Your company was investigated by the FBI and what kind of relationship does Yahu Company urgently hope that you will transfer all the Yahu shares you hold to Wall Street investment banks?"

Fu Zhengyi said with some uncertainty. "Is it because of discrimination?"

"As the leader of Internet companies, Yang Wenyuan's wealth is also increasing with the rise of the Nasdaq index, so he will inevitably deal with politicians and the bastards on Wall Street. Politicians need votes, while the vampires on Wall Street need profits. On the surface, the United States is a country with zero tolerance for insider trading and illegal violations. But once someone touches the interests of all parties, the blow will be inevitable. If you want to develop in the United States, the issue of identity is something you cannot avoid..."

David's remarks were a bit obscure, and Fu Zhengyi thought for a moment before saying. "What do you mean is that when the wealth is so huge that it arouses dissatisfaction among politicians and Wall Street people, only by first solving the problem of identity can we solve the problem of not being discriminated against?"

David smiled. "Why did the WTO negotiation exclude your country? Do you really think it's because of the WTO?"

Fu Zhengyi nodded. "So what if I don't want to immigrate?"

"Agent!" David finished speaking in a deep voice, and saw him showing a relieved expression, he shook his head and continued. "Also, you must obtain strong support, including but not limited to the friendship between friends, partners, and celebrities..."
