Chapter 2003 I'm short of money, I'll invest for you
"Damn Orientals, they all look the same. I really can't remember them at all." Sofik cursed secretly in his heart, and said lightly, "Hello."
"Hello." Lin Zhiming nodded to the other party.
Before Sofik could speak, Brown had already taken the lead in launching the attack.
"Mr. Lin...you have a lot on your plate." Brown said with a joking smile.
"What?" Lin Zhiming lowered his head and looked at his plate. There were only a few slices of ham, a piece of foie gras and a piece of bread with caviar on it.
"People who don't know may think you're here to eat, but Mr. Lin, you know how to pick. The things on the plate are all expensive. They shouldn't be available in your Dragon Kingdom, right?" Brown asked, raising his chin slightly.
road.
"Ham, foie gras, and caviar are also available in Long Country," Lin Zhiming said.
"This ham is not an ordinary ham, it is Iberian 5j ham. Just the few slices on your plate would cost thousands of dollars. This foie gras is also the top white foie gras in Perfume Country. This kind of foie gras
It is known as the best of foie gras. As for this caviar, it is the finest caviar produced in the White Bear Country. It is known as golden caviar, which means it is as valuable as gold. Are you sure that such a thing is in your dragon's heart?
Is there one in the country?" Brown asked.
At this time, Brown had a haughty look on his face that was unique to Westerners.
Lin Zhiming suddenly thought of an interview he saw many years ago. In the interview, a white man asked the host of Long Country if there were any Mercedes-Benz or BMW in Long Country?
The expression on that white man's face then was exactly the same as the expression on Brown's face now.
"It turns out these things are so precious." Lin Zhiming suddenly realized.
"Mr. Lin, your girlfriend Miss Ye Shan is going to become a big star in the future. She is destined to attend many high-end banquets. You have to write down what I just said. When we go to those banquets together in the future,
If you choose these expensive foods, you can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a full meal," Brown said with a smile.
"It makes sense. Once you learn it, I will definitely eat more in a while." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
Seeing Lin Zhiming's smile, Brown was a little annoyed. Is this Ye Shan's boyfriend stupid? Why did he not seem to mind at all when he was sarcastic to him?
Or did he simply not understand that he was mocking him?
Sophiek was a little dissatisfied with Brown's remarks and felt that Brown's words were too implicit, so he took the initiative and said, "If you like to eat, I will ask the servant to pack some for you to take back later. I heard that you people in the Dragon Kingdom like to pack. It seems to be because of life."
The conditions are not good, so whenever something delicious appears, I like to pack it up and take it back.”
"Mr. Sofik, when you mentioned this, I thought of the video I saw before. It was a video of the Dragon Kingdom banquet. Some people packed up the dishes as soon as they were served, and did not let others eat them.
Like a savage," Brown said with a smile.
"Really? Then you have to share the video with me later!" Sofik said.
"Mr. Sofik, President Brown, we Longguo people do like to pack, but it's not because our living conditions are not good and we can't afford it, but because we don't like waste. We experienced famine more than a hundred years ago.
Without enough food, people died of hunger all over the land. Fortunately, God came from heaven and saved us from hunger, allowing us to eat and drink enough. But even so, the tradition of cherishing food has always been imprinted in our souls. Compassion for the Farmers said,
Who would have thought that every meal on the plate is hard work, no matter whether the food is precious or not, as long as there is more than can be eaten, we will pack it back, we think this is the greatest respect for the food." Ye Shan said with a serious face.
Sophie and Brown didn't expect that Ye Shan would stand up and defend herself. The main purpose of what they said before was to ridicule Ye Shan's boyfriend, and then make Ye Shan feel embarrassed and feel that her boyfriend was embarrassed, but they didn't expect that
Not only did she not feel embarrassed by her boyfriend, she even took the initiative to refute the two of them about the packing matter, which surprised them.
"You are right." Lin Zhiming smiled and gave Ye Shan a thumbs up.
"It is indeed good not to waste food." Brown quickly reacted, nodded with a smile and said, "I don't think packing is bad, it's just that in our country of stars and stripes, we can cook as much as we can eat.
, usually you have finished eating, so you don’t need to pack it, but you Dragon Country people are different. Almost all Dragon Country people I have met like to order a lot of dishes when they go to restaurants, whether you can finish them or not.
Anyway, there are just a lot of dishes, and then there will be a lot of uneaten dishes left to pack, which actually seems to me to be a very waste of resources."
"I don't agree with this." Lin Zhiming shook his head and said, "People in Longguo order a lot of food because we treat guests warmly. We hope that our guests can eat as much delicious food as possible, even if they can't finish it, just eat a little of each item.
Okay, as for the problem of waste, we can understand it this way. We ordered a lot of dishes today, and the restaurant consumed a lot of raw materials. If the raw materials are consumed too much, we have to buy them from farmers. The more dishes we order, the more farmers earn.
The more we have, it means that we are increasing farmers’ income in disguise, right?”
Brown was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that what Lin Zhiming said made sense.
"Okay, you guys, it's a waste of time to talk so much about a little thing about eating." Seeing that he couldn't take advantage of the matter of eating, Sophie immediately decided to change the topic.
"It's true, eating this kind of thing is too tacky." Brown said with a smile.
"What does this Mr. Lin do?" Sophie asked proactively.
"As a businessman, I have established several companies." Lin Zhiming said.
"It turns out that Mr. Lin is also in business! This is the same as Mr. Sofik, but the Mr. Sofik in front of you is the top rich man in our Stars and Stripes Kingdom, with a net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars!" Brown said with a smile.
"Money is something external to the body." Sophiek said with an expression that said I don't like money at all.
"Mr. Sofik is really rich." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"Actually, I personally don't take money very seriously. I donate a lot of money to charity foundations every year. In addition, I also help some young people with dreams to realize their dreams," Sofik said.
"When doing business, you have to do this with Mr. Sofik. Your level is high! Mr. Lin, you are lucky enough to meet Mr. Sofik today, so you have to talk to Mr. Sofik more. I don't guarantee that Mr. Sofik will be the same."
I'm happy to invest in you." Brown smiled.
"Really? I happen to have a project recently that requires a lot of money, and I'm a bit strapped." Lin Zhiming said.
"Investing or not is a trivial matter. I will never be stingy with the young people I value. Since you came to my party today, for Miss Ye Shan's sake, I can help you. Your project needs
How much is it? I'll ask my secretary to transfer the money to Miss Ye Shan's account later," Sofik said.
"My project requires a lot of money," Lin Zhiming said.
"Mr. Lin, to Mr. Sofik, as long as it is money, it is a small amount!" Brown said.
"Really? Mr. Sofik, are you really willing to help me?" Lin Zhiming asked excitedly.
"Of course." Sophie nodded and thought to herself, "Of course I can help you, but the prerequisite is that you must send your girlfriend to my bed..."
"That's great." Lin Zhiming said with a smile, "My company recently invested in a project in Africa. There is still a small gap in the initial start-up capital. I originally planned to pledge some shares, but now it seems that it is no longer needed.
"
"Just tell me how much it will cost," Brown said.
"It will probably take about 10 billion more." Lin Zhiming said.
Ten billion?!
Upon hearing this word, everyone around them was stunned.
"Zimbabwe dollars?" Brown asked.
"No, no, no, US dollars." Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Are you kidding? There is a funding gap of 10 billion US dollars? How much will the entire project cost?" Brown said excitedly.
"The entire project is estimated to be between 150 billion and 200 billion US dollars. If Mr. Sofik is willing to help me, it should be enough to sell all his assets." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"Are you kidding us? Are you going to Africa to build a nuclear bomb?" Sofik said with a gloomy face. In his opinion, the words spoken by the man in front of him were all nonsense and he was definitely trying to fool them on purpose.
"Almost, we need to build a few nuclear power plants." Lin Zhiming said.
"Nuclear power plant?" Everyone present was stunned for a moment.
"Go to Africa to build a nuclear power plant? Why don't you say go to the moon to mine coal! Young man, it's meaningless for you to talk like this. Africa is such a poor place, and you build a nuclear power plant. How much does your electricity cost? How many people can you sell it to?
?You should have some logic when talking nonsense, do you think we are fools?" Sofik said with a dark face.
"I really went to Africa to build a nuclear power plant recently." Lin Zhiming spread his hands helplessly and said, "If you don't believe it, you can go check it out."
"Whoever goes to investigate has lost his mind, Miss Ye Shan, Mr. Sofik sincerely regards you as a friend and wants to help your boyfriend, but in the end, your boyfriend did this to him! It's really disappointing.
People are disappointed!!" Brown said angrily.
"Mr. Brown, Mr. Sophie, what my boyfriend said is true." Ye Shan said.
"If what your boyfriend said is true, I will stand upside down on the toilet and drink toilet water! Is it true that we are all three-year-olds?" Brown said excitedly.
"Ah, this really happened!" A sidekick next to him said excitedly while holding his mobile phone.
"Keller, what are you talking about?" Brown frowned and looked at the man and asked.
"I just checked. The Longguolin Group officially signed a nuclear power plant construction project with an African country some time ago. It plans to build eight nuclear power plants in a certain country to meet the country's energy needs. The project is expected to have a total investment of US$150 billion.
Between 200 billion US dollars and 200 billion US dollars, Lin Zhiming, chairman of Longguo Lin Group, attended the signing ceremony..." The person named Keller said while looking at Lin Zhiming, and then looked down at Lin Zhiming on his phone.
Photo.
After such a comparison, Keller made a surprising discovery.
That is, the person in the photo looks... exactly like the person in front of me!
