The sea breeze blows and the waves crash onto the shore.
In the distance is the dreamy night view of the Bay Area...
After dinner, the group took a walk home and went home early.
The next day, Chen Mo woke up just after dawn and woke up Hathaway in his arms...
Chen Xiao and the others were still sleeping. Chen Mo knocked on Chen Xiao's door and told her. When Hathaway came downstairs, the two of them went out and went straight to San Francisco Airport.
Bai Xiaoou and his wife's flight left at seven o'clock. Chen Mo and the others went over. The two couples had already left the airport and met in the parking lot.
"Mo Mo, have you missed me?" Bai Xiaoou looked at Hathaway, said hello with his eyes, and opened his arms to hug her.
"Go away." Chen Mo pushed him away: "Where is the gift you brought me?"
Bai Xiaoou handed Chen Mo a small suitcase: "It's all your gifts, including shells and wind chimes, aromatic essential oils, wood carvings, and Tahitian black pearls."
Jennifer looked jealous: "I feel like he should go out on his honeymoon with you and think about you."
Chen Mo chuckled and hugged Jennifer: "You have to keep an eye on your husband. I'm afraid he will fall in love with me. This man is getting more and more scary."
Jennifer's expression immediately changed...
"I like women silently." Bai Xiaoou acted like a woman, making Jennifer laugh: "Hathaway, we meet again. There is a black pearl necklace Jennifer specially selected for you in Chen Mo's bag. I think you will
like."
Jennifer was stunned. She had never heard of Hathaway...
Bai Xiaoou secretly gave her a look: "We met on the way to the Grand Canyon, and silently fell in love with him at first sight."
Hathaway was a little embarrassed: "Thank you, and I wish you a happy wedding."
"You're welcome. My name is Jennifer, nice to meet you." Jennifer looked at Hathaway, a stunning beauty in a long dress.
Not to mention, Chen Mo's appearance is indeed good-looking, even according to European and American aesthetics. He is a billionaire himself and has an extraordinary temperament. If he really pursues any beautiful woman, it is difficult not to succeed. Seeing Hathaway, Jennifer thought of her again
My best friend Hill... I really don’t know what Hill was thinking at the beginning.
Hill actually regretted it a long time ago. Hill had already regretted it before Chen Mo came to San Francisco, but when she left, Chen Mo didn't say a word to save her. This made Hill sad, and she couldn't save her face to contact Chen Mo again...
I just hope that they are all well. Jennifer knows that she is not qualified to interfere with Chen Mo's private life. Besides, it is indeed not Chen Mo who is sorry...
But I feel that Chen Mo is quite cold. I really don’t know why Bai Xiaoou and him are best friends.
"Yes. Nice to meet you."
Chen Mo went over and opened the door. Bai Xiaoou moved his luggage to the back and occupied the passenger seat...
"Why did you come back early?" Remembering that Bai Xiaoou said he would not come back until mid-May, Chen Mo started the car and glanced at him.
"The matter of the company. Tangxia Yipin was reorganized and a head office was established. Tangxia Yipin, Old Shufeng Hot Pot Restaurant, and Shufeng Chain became independent operating subsidiaries. The name of the company's headquarters will be called 'Huafeng Group' from now on.
'how?"
"Whatever. But I think it's too fast."
Bai Xiaoou waved his hand: "Garrison Investment Company is urging us. The development speed of the company's Shufeng fast food restaurant is somewhat beyond imagination. The goal of 300 stores will be achieved almost next month. When the business data is announced at the end of the year,
The market value of this store should be more than half of the company’s market value.”
"Separating the three chain catering brands into independent subsidiaries will help the company go public in the future. And the management can be more detailed... After all, the consumer groups faced by the three brands can be said to be completely different." Bai Xiaoou said cautiously.
He looked at Chen Mo: "Are you interested in becoming the CEO of the company?"
"From a subsidiary?"
"Um."
Chen Mo shook his head: "I don't have the ability."
"You can take care of the river valley pasture in an orderly manner, no worse than me."
"You praise me or you disparage me." Chen Mo smiled and lit a cigarette: "I have a lot of things to do on my own and I can't keep myself busy. Are you worried that your control over the company is getting less and less?"
Bai Xiaoou smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Actually, it doesn't matter who owns the company, and there is no need to worry about it... If you want to have a business that is completely your own, you can start a new one in a few years."
"Easy to say."
Chen Mo shrugged his shoulders: "What is the most important thing in life, be happy."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Have you bought Coles Manor?"
"Bought."
"What was the final transaction price?"
"95 million."
"Damn... you didn't bargain. That place shouldn't be worth that much money."
"I was given a winery as a gift, a winery in Luyue District." Chen Mo touched his chin: "The manor plus winery totals 95 million US dollars. After all, I am not at a loss... almost."
"After the company's reorganization is completed, I may go to Napa and take charge of several of our companies' projects in Napa."
"Complete the company reorganization very early..." Chen Mo handed a cigarette to Bai Xiaoou: "Actually, compared to restaurants, I think the more promising company should be Ellison Logistics."
"Ellison Logistics can... maybe, it is true."
Chen Mo smiled: "Ellison Logistics is located where there are three companies' restaurants, and Ellison Logistics' lines have been laid out. How many restaurants are there in the United States? If Ellison Logistics has more sufficient funds, can it continue?
If we expand it a bit, we might be able to create a monopoly."
Bai Xiaoou's eyes lit up: "You mean to monopolize restaurant procurement and logistics. This... is difficult."
"Although this business is not a blue ocean, there is no other company with the same scale as Ellison Logistics in the United States. It not only purchases for restaurants, but also for green organic stores and natural food stores..."
The path of Ellison Logistics is paved. If it can achieve long-term and stable cooperation with a large number of organic farms and pastures, Ellison Logistics should be able to become a 'large wholesale logistics company'. But Ellison's ability seems to be insufficient...
"
"He still holds 31% of the shares of Ellison Logistics. We have 33% of the shares of Tangxia Yipin. The rest are under the names of Wellen Company and Babner Company..."
Chen Mo frowned. When he was running Snow Mountain Ranch, Ellison proposed that Chen Mo invest in the company in order to form a long-term and stable cooperation with Snow Mountain Ranch. At that time, Chen Mo had no money...
“What is the market value of this company?”
Bai Xiaoou shook his head: "The fixed assets are almost 200 million. But profit... Its main business is our three companies. The profit point is very low, and the profit will definitely not be too high. Do you want to acquire this company?"
"What do you think the potential of this company is?"
"There is potential, but it may not be developed. It's hard to say. In fact, you are definitely not the only one who can think of this. There are many talented people in Garrison Investment Company, and there are many smart people..." Bai Xiaoou just said
My heart beats instantly. However, there are always differences between ideals and reality, and you can't always follow your personal ideas perfectly.
According to Chen Mo's idea, if it is done, Ellison Logistics will become a giant company. But it will be very difficult to do it. First of all, it is a question of talent. At least it must be the world's top CEO.
DeGroff, etc., possess the operational capabilities and means of these characters...
Many people can come up with the ideal plan, but few have the ability to execute it. At least let Chen Mo do it, and in the end he will definitely end up with chicken feathers all over the floor.
After thinking about it, Chen Mo felt that he was suitable for growing flowers and grass and managing a piece of land.
