Chapter 718 How to Spend Money
"How do you plan to spend this money? I figured it out, after deducting the necessary expenses and the commission for me, you can still get $765,000!" Ken said, the more than $700,000 in 1982 The purchasing power of the US dollar is quite strong, "This amount of money is enough for you to immigrate to the United States. I think with your talent, you can also achieve great success in the United States!"
"I have no plans to immigrate." Shen Long is not like the current Chinese people, who regard the United States as a paradise, "I have other plans for this money, let's put it with you first, oh, yes, give it to me first Ten thousand dollars in foreign exchange certificates, I need to buy something."
After earning so much money, I naturally want to buy some gifts for my family, Xiaoxia and Jinbo. If I give Xiaoxia, I can send a Walkman. I don’t know if there is any one with recording function. If so, it would be great However, she can be used both for relaxation and entertainment, as well as for interview work.
For Lan Xiang, just buy her a computer, but I don't know if it can be used in school, will it be too eye-catching? Or you can put it here and teach Lanxiang yourself.
Shaoan will send some books on business management and business operations, which is what he needs most now; oh, and you can also buy two TVs for him and his family...
Ken said just now that he immigrated to the United States, but Shen Long remembered another novel "Peking Man in New York" that can be used for plagiarism. This work also has far-reaching influence.
"Ken, help me collect some information. Your topic just now inspired me. I want to write a novel that reflects the life of Chinese immigrants in the United States." Shen Long said, the original author of "Peking Man in New York" As a performer of Guilin Central Broadcasting Art Troupe, he went to the United States with his wife at the beginning of this year. At the end of the same year, he founded a company in New York to design and produce high-end American knitted fashion.
Shen Long doesn't have his experience, and writing it rashly will definitely arouse readers' doubts, so he needs to find a reason; moreover, he doesn't intend to write according to Cao Guilin's original work, as this book doesn't reveal the reality of the United States deeply enough. Shen Long hopes that through his book, he can pour cold water on the current enthusiasm for going abroad and make everyone realize that the United States is not a paradise.
"No problem, is it a realistic novel?" After receiving an affirmative answer, Ken felt a little regretful, he still prefers science fiction.
"Or, you can invest the rest of the money? Try your hands in the American stock market?" Ken continued. He always felt that it was no coincidence that Shen Long guessed the World Cup champion and the top scorer. Science fiction fans always love Brainstorming, he felt that Shen Long might have some secrets that he didn't understand, and he wanted to use this opportunity to gain some fame.
"It's not necessary for the time being." Shen Long shook his head, the money is enough for his own expenses, he knows that those stocks will go up in this era, and he doesn't want to attract too much attention, "Oh, yes, if you want to invest , I think you can go to France to collect a batch of red wine, such as Lafite or something!"
Ah, this year happens to be 1982, which is the best vintage of Lafite Chateau in the past few decades according to the legend. Judging from the previous experience of buying "The Mountains and Rivers of the Country Are Red", when Lafite appreciated in 1982, there was no need for him to make a profit by selling it.
In any case, it’s always good to save some good wine to drink slowly. It is also a good thing to store some liquor such as Moutai and Wuliangye, and bring it back to the real world when the time comes.
"Can,
I have worked in the French embassy for half a year, and I can get it done by calling a friend. How much do you plan to buy? "Ken hastily agreed, and buying the Lafite in 1982 was not an effort.
"Two hundred thousand dollars." Shen Long held up two fingers. There are opportunities to make money at any time. It will not be easy to buy Lafite on a large scale in the future. This amount can definitely buy enough Lafite for him to drink for a long time "I'll find a place in the capital and build a wine cellar, and it will be stored here by then."
At this time, there are still many courtyard houses in the capital, which is also a good thing; with this idea, Shen Long started to act, and found a suitable place without much effort.
The owner of the house was planning to go abroad, but he didn't get a quota at the public expense, so he had to go abroad at his own expense. He planned to sell this courtyard house and go to the black market to exchange it for US dollars before going out. It would be easy to meet Shen Long now.
He didn't need to waste the effort to go back and forth. He transferred the courtyard to Shen Long. He could just get the US dollars from Shen Long. The landlord immediately agreed when he heard this, and quickly cooperated with Shen Long to complete the formalities. Hehe went abroad.
Shen Long began to imagine the future of this child. Maybe he would stay in the United States after finishing his studies in the United States, and then through his own intelligence and wisdom, after decades of hard work, he finally became a successful person and accumulated tens of millions of dollars. .
Thirty years later, China's economic development is getting better and better. He plans to expand his business back to China and bring tens of millions of dollars back to China to start a new business. One day, he suddenly wants to see his old house on a whim. .
When he came to the gate of his courtyard, he saw a notice for sale posted outside. The notice stated that the courtyard was priced at 200 million RMB. I don’t know what he would have thought at that time. His mood must be very complicated, right?
After buying the courtyard house, Shen Long remodeled it according to his own ideas. There are not only advanced electrical appliances that are willing to be shipped from the United States, but also various antique Chinese furniture. The modern and classic are perfectly combined. After Chen Kaige and others came to visit They are all full of praise.
From now on, this is where I will stay when I come to the capital, and I won’t have to go to other places to stay. When I’m not around, I’ll let Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou take care of it. It’s a place for friends to gather, but I have to remind them not to stay here If you act recklessly, next year it will be severely cracked down.
After finishing all this work, Shen Long was not in a hurry to leave. On this day, he borrowed a car and was going to pick up someone at the train station; the purchase of Lafite and courtyard house was secondary, this time he planned to spend money seriously up.
After waiting at the exit for more than half an hour, the train from Chengdu finally arrived. Shen Long held up the pick-up sign in his hand. It depends on her.
