His two long legs were swung high on the table, and his shiny leather shoes kept dangling. Wang Yaocheng enjoyed this kind of exploitation very much and had no intention of improving Linus' treatment.
Not long after, deputy general manager Huo Jiaguang came in from the outside with a happy face.
"Boss, I'm back. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
"Oh! Brother Iemitsu, what good news do you bring?"
"Don't move, Chairman. If you feel comfortable, just cross your legs like this. I'll leave after saying a few words."
Deputy General Manager Huo Jiaguang's flattery made him feel very comfortable, and he said reluctantly;
"Uh...okay!"
"I talked to the owner of this logistics company and he happily accepted the price of US$2.5 million and was willing to reach an agreement with us at any time."
"What? $2.5 million"
Wang Yaocheng almost fell over on his back and quickly put his legs away and stood up.
"If you think the price is too high, I'll talk to them again."
"No, this price is very suitable, it's settled."
Wang Yaocheng smiled so hard that his teeth were missing and he looked at the Rolex Ghost King on his wrist;
"It's almost four o'clock now. Let's take the lawyer to go through the formalities immediately to prevent a long night. By the way, you and I were talking as we walked, how could this greedy boss Asan suddenly drop his salary from 6.5 million to 2.5 million?
"
Deputy General Manager Huo Jiaguang spread his hands; "Originally, this price is a bit too high. With the normal price plus the premium due to the location, around 3.5 million should be reasonable.
But this red-headed Asan was too hateful, so I severely lowered his price.
Did you find the boss?
The truck drivers of this logistics company are all turbaned Sikhs..."
Wang Yaocheng suddenly realized that these believers who came to the United States for the reason of religious oppression must have a problem with their identity. The boss of the logistics company used these employees to provide cheap and high-quality products.
If you are complained to the Immigration Bureau, you will definitely be severely skinned.
If you complain to the tax bureau, you will be completely screwed!
What is the most unacceptable thing to offend in the United States is tax evasion. Of course, reasonable tax avoidance by the rich does not fall into this category.
Under the federal system of the United States, each state government can decide on its own what taxes to levy, and each state's tax laws almost have their own characteristics.
Each state government can decide on its own what taxes to levy, and almost no two states have the same tax laws, so major companies use loopholes in state tax laws to reasonably avoid taxes.
For example;
Red Hat is registered in Colorado. The company's location on Fengsha Road in Silicon Valley is just a branch and is very large. The company can pay taxes in Colorado and follow Colorado tax laws.
If Red Hat doesn't make a profit, it doesn't have to pay taxes.
Colorado’s sales tax rate for the company’s products is 2.9%, and consumption tax is exempt.
In California, the sales tax rate on company products is 8.25% and the consumption tax is 10.25%. This shows how huge the difference is.
If it weren't for Citibank, which is proficient in this, it would definitely have spent a lot more money. Including the keenly observant deputy general manager Huo Jiaguang, the negotiation suddenly reduced the price to 4 million US dollars, which shows how valuable professional people are.
night
Four-star hotel suite
The sound of running water came from the bathroom. After a while, Wang Yaocheng came out wrapped in a white bath towel. You can see that the outline of muscles on his slightly thin body is looming, exuding a healthy luster.
"Ah! It's so comfortable!"
He shook his wet hair violently, and Cai Linlin, who had just walked in, screamed and fled;
"Oh my god! The water is flying everywhere."
Wang Yaocheng opened the refrigerator with a smile, took out a can of ice-cold Coke, opened it, raised his head and drank most of it in one breath, nodded and shouted;
"Cool!"
"What are you so happy about? Are you buying another piece of land today?"
"Yes! This investment is very good."
"I spend more than two million dollars to buy a piece of land, but I don't see the benefit?"
Wang Yaocheng turned over and fell on the soft Simmons bed, and said with a smile;
"You have to look at it from a long-term perspective. The wave of electronic technology has swept the world and is becoming more and more prosperous. High-tech companies are emerging one after another. What does this mean?"
"I don't know." Cai Linlin did not keep up with his rhythm.
"Being able to recognize your own shortcomings is your best characteristic."
Wang Yaocheng explained patiently;
“The world’s technological wave looks to the United States, and the US technological wave looks to Silicon Valley, and the core of Silicon Valley is around Stanford University. Even if the price of Fengsha Road is high, it has more investment value and appreciation potential than other pieces of land.
What's more, if Red Hat wants to develop, it can't always have just a dozen people.
There may be more than 100 people, there may be more than 200 people, there may be more, and there must be enough room for development."
Cai Linlin can easily understand such an in-depth and simple explanation;
"However, the 10 million US dollars withdrawn from the stock market, in addition to buying a house and a car, and paying for various miscellaneous expenses of the company, now only have more than 6 million left. The consumption in the United States is so high, I am worried that it will not be used for a year."
"One year? Haha, I will use it up within three months."
Wang Yaocheng's words were astonishing, and Cai Linlin was really frightened, and she was speechless.
"After today's real estate delivery, professionals will be arranged to decorate the five buildings of the logistics company. Except for two buildings, they will be converted into the company's research and development facilities, one building will be converted into a computer room, and the remaining one will be converted into a leisure and fitness center.
, taking into account the supply of simple lunch spots.
The last building was converted into an apartment building, which can provide 72 apartments, which will cost more than two million US dollars.
Including the computer room and computer equipment that employees need to purchase, more than three million US dollars are gone.
Therefore, this amount of money is only enough to last for three months."
Cai Linlin felt waves of dizziness. Suddenly, she was knocked down by a sneak attack by the bad guy, and the spring scenery was boundless...
a week later
May 21
san francisco international airport
Professor Sun Zhongxiu and his group of 12 people from China were naturally surprised when they saw Luo Qianjin holding a big sign at the airport pick-up gate, as well as Wang Yaocheng, Cai Linlin, Niels Stovars and others next to him.
They chatted happily and exchanged pleasantries.
When they walked out of the airport and arrived at the parking lot, the Jinling University group who had come out of China couldn't help but feel dizzy. The Red Hat company that came to pick them up drove five black Cadillac luxury cars.
The huge body silently conveys a sense of extreme luxury, and the shiny electroplated silver guard panels under the doors are simply dazzling.
When you get in the car, the soft shock absorption of the American luxury sedan makes the car body sink suddenly, the large and comfortable sofa wraps your body, and the soothing music from the Pioneer stereo brings you the ultimate visual enjoyment.
The professors and young lecturers who were picked up all the way at Red Hat and got off the bus still had not recovered from the shock.
Looking up at the large site, there are five white buildings scattered in an orderly manner. At the front is a pure natural rock that is more than half a person's height. On it is the logo of Red Hat, a cute red hat.
