There is a coffee shop outside Disneyland. The store is not big, only a few dozen square meters, and can only accommodate 10 tables. The bar is also very small and can only accommodate 2 people, and it is only small enough to turn around.
However, this store is unique in the nearby neighborhood. It is always packed with customers during peak periods and it is hard to find a customer. The reason is not because of the specialty desserts or authentic Blue Mountain coffee, but because of the decoration of the store.
style.
Generally speaking, the stores around Disneyland are more or less influenced by cartoons. Even if the walls are not dyed pink, Mickey Mouse and Snow White are hung directly in the store, and stones will be attached to the outer walls.
Ceramic tiles show a simple and solemn medieval style.
But this store is different. It does not have any animated colors and is completely modern in decoration. From the outside to the inside, it is all blue, which is the blue in the Orlando Magic logo.
Yes, this is a coffee shop opened by Magic fans. The store is full of magic-related items, ranging from a keychain to life-size posters of players. It can be said that there are only things you can’t imagine here, and no shop owner has them.
. This store is the famous Magic House, an influential gathering place for fans, and its name is - Magic House.[
Edison took Wang Ziqiang into the coffee shop and greeted the store manager familiarly. The store manager was very surprised to see Edison. His surprise was not the kind of shock that fns would see an idol, but a simple surprise.
Unexpected.
"What's wrong, Mike, he doesn't recognize me."
"I'll recognize you even if you turn into ashes. But you haven't been here for several years, why are you here today?" The store owner was about 30 years old. He listened to Edison and walked out of the bar. The two hugged and then proposed
own questions.
"I've made an appointment to discuss something. Could you please close up early today?"
"No problem, what do you want? You came at the right time. I just got a new batch of coffee beans here yesterday. I'll let you try them later."
"Ok, no problem."
While talking, Edison and Wang Ziqiang casually walked to a table and sat down. Assistant Wang still habitually held her 36e big breasts on the table.
Wang Ziqiang curiously looked at the surrounding environment and carefully looked at the posters on the wall. The last one was the pre-match photo of the Magic this season. Edison and Pat Lao were sitting in the middle, and the others were behind them.
There were three rows of people standing behind.
"Do you know each other?" Wang Ziqiang looked at Edison and pointed at the store manager who was grinding coffee.
"Well, Mike and I have been old friends for many years. We were both die-hard Magic fans back then. He inherited this store from his father, so we proposed to make it look like the Magic House. You can say
I also helped when this store opened, including the tables and chairs you are sitting on now, which I helped move in."
"Then why did he say you haven't been here for many years? And I'm surprised that a fan like him didn't ask you anything about the team just now." Women are gossips, even the most rational strong women.
.
"In fact, I haven't been here since I worked for the team for a month. The reason is exactly related to your last question."
Edison groped the tabletop and the back of the chair, as if he wanted to take time back to that youthful era.
"You know, when I started working for the Magic, I became a well-informed insider to the people who came here, so in the beginning they would always ask me about the team's development intentions. I was also
I can’t say enough about it, but then I unintentionally revealed a potential trading target, and they spread the word. Finally, it was published in the newspaper and was censored. This made everyone very disappointed. Faced with these people who love magic as much as I do.
Fans, I can't keep any team's secret. But if I tell it, the scene in the past is very likely to happen again, which will cause harm to the team, so I chose to leave, and I haven't done anything since.
Been here before. And Mike knew the cause and effect, so although he must have many questions in his mind, he didn't ask because he knew he couldn't ask."
Wang Ziqiang nodded after hearing this, "The easiest way to avoid harm is to avoid contact and solve all troubles from the source."
Edison broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, and was about to say something to her, "Sister, you think too much."
Soon the store manager Mike brought the brewed coffee to Edison and Wang Ziqiang, "How about trying it?"
The two of them smelled a strong aroma before they drank, "It smells good, it must be good."
"Haha, then you just drink it all and don't leave anything behind. Okay, I'm going to do other things while you chat." After saying that, the store manager Mike turned and left, but he suddenly stopped after taking 3 steps. Then
As if to encourage himself, he clenched his fists, turned around and said to Edison, "Paul, don't care what those people say, you did a good job. Your magic gives us hope." [
After hearing what Mike said, Edison was stunned for a moment, and then showed a very official smile, "I know, thank you."
The two of them have thousands of things they want to say, but they know that they cannot say these words and there is no need to say them. We all know many things in our hearts and can just show them in our actions.
"I think I know why you chose to discuss things here." Wang Ziqiang tapped the table and said thoughtfully.
"Maybe, here I can forget all the troubles. The whole world seems to have become simpler, and I can focus more." Edison raised his eyebrows and said in a relaxed manner with a grimace.
Ten minutes later, a tall woman in colorful clothes knocked on the door of the Magic House.
"Good evening, Ivanka. You came earlier than I expected." Edison greeted Ivanka very gentlemanly. The person in charge of the agency where he bought the house was also the head of the famous New York real estate developer Plante.
daughter.
"I don't like to make others wait for me, so they will have more time to figure out my thoughts." Ivanka shook hands with Edison politely while showing her style and attitude.
"This is a high-level theory. I've written it down and I'll definitely use it in the future." Edison motioned for Ivanka to sit down, and then filled him with a cup of coffee that Mike had just brewed.
"Okay, I think Kelly has communicated with you many times before, and now the market has begun to reflect some of what we expected. Ordinary people don't know, I believe your information system will definitely be able to find the clues. How?
So, how about we work together to make a big deal?"
Ivanka glanced at Edison with a charming look, and then replied, "Yes, your ability to predict the market really shocked me. But this is not enough for us to join your plan, because we have the same prediction as you."
There are many people who judge, and they also have their own plans, which are relatively mild and low-risk. In your plan, although the profits are huge, we have to invest a large amount of money. If an accident occurs, my family may be devastated.
The blow will take several years to recover, and you may even be unable to recover from it. Therefore, we still need a reason, a reason for us to choose you."
After hearing this, Edison put on an expression of "I knew you would say that", and then answered word for word, "Because they only know that there are problems and hidden dangers here, but they don't know the specific time of the outbreak.
And I know the general timing of the outbreak of the crisis and the impact it will have on the entire United States and even the global economy. I am the only one, so now you are not choosing me, but I am choosing you."
"I heard this kind of thing every day when I was an interviewer. How can you prove that you are as special as you say and that your tests are correct? Why should we believe you?"
"You may not believe it, but I can do it."
What Edison said was very arrogant and even unreasonable, but his confidence that everything was in my hands made Ivanka a little moved.
"This guy is not a fool, nor is he a lunatic. The fact that he is so confident proves that he is sure. But this plate is too big, so I have to be careful." Ivanka said to herself while staring at Edison's
With his eyes, he tried to find out the reason why he was so confident.
Seeing that Ivanka was silent, Edison made a gesture to Wang Ziqiang. Assistant Wang quickly took out a piece of information from his briefcase and placed it in front of Ivanka.
"This is a new financing plan. It is different from the original one. This time we have also increased our investment. The investment amount has increased from the previous 100 million to 1 billion, but you will remain unchanged at 2 billion. In this way, we will have more room to operate.
Bigger.”
Ivanka looked at the information in front of her in surprise and couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get so much money? According to my previous investigation, the cash in your hand is only more than 100 million and less than 200 million. This
It already includes the astonishing profits from the hit movie you newly invested in. Where did you get the rest of the money?"
Edison did not answer Ivanka's question, but Wang Ziqiang beside him gave the answer, "Paul sold 30% of feb's shares and received an investment of 1.3 billion from Sequoia. In addition to the necessary funds for the development of the company,
, the others were all drawn into this bet by him."
After hearing this, Ivanka carefully looked at the handsome man in front of her again, and was shocked by his courage.
After a long time, Ivanka handed the information back to Wang Ziqiang, and then said, "Although I don't want to admit it, your charisma really moved me. I will try my best to persuade my father to cooperate with you. I believe your plan will work."
bright future."
After hearing this, Edison once again had a sunny smile on his face, "It's not my plan, it's our plan. You tell your father that working with me is definitely the most exciting investment in his life. Two years later, his
Personal assets, influence and status will all rise to the next level."[
