Chapter 992: Bloomberg's reception

On the pickup truck, Xiao Peng sat in the position of the co-pilot, clutching his stomach and grinning straight down.
"Brother Peng, what makes you so happy! It's been a laugh all the way." Di Wei looked at Xiao Peng with a confused look.
Xiao Peng said: "I just ran the track with that blonde girl, the one who pestered me."
Di Wei thought for a while: "What then?"
Xiao Peng calmed down: "Then? When the car drove half a circle, she became a fountain. I don't know what she ate. I was so miserable by vomiting. The funny thing was that she was still there. It’s broadcast live there, she must lose fans now, right?"
After hearing this, Di Wei was taken aback: "Is that an internet celebrity anchor?"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "How do I know. I don't look like it, but it was broadcast live there. Don't you know, Honda's staff were dumbfounded when they saw the situation, and they had to let her buy the car, but She was still vomiting and spitting up there, and her words were uncomfortable. Her friend had to send her to the hospital, and the Honda employee had to let her buy the car. Haha, that's a buzz!"
Di Wei blinked: "Brother Peng, will that woman hate you to death, right?"
Xiao Peng looked indifferent after hearing this: "She doesn't know who I am, can she find me? Besides, why is she looking for me? It's too late for her to hide from me."
Di Wei puzzled: "Why?"
Xiao Peng stretched out his hand and took out a note from his pocket: "She still owes me five hundred dollars! Isn't she afraid that if I see her, she will ask her for debt?"
Di Wei was dumbfounded. You made people like this and still owes you money?
The eldest brother is the eldest brother, so he has such a personality in his work.
"Brother Peng, what are we playing now?" Di Wei asked.
Xiao Peng stretched his waist and said, "I haven't read the almanac for the past two days, and I've encountered troubles everywhere! Don't just think about playing, go back and rest for two days, and then go to Bloomberg in two days. I'll go back to China in a circle, and you should go back to Los Angeles as soon as possible and let A Chan set up the processing plant over there. It's important to do business!"
Di Wei nodded after hearing this: "Brother Can called me to talk about this. The site of the factory has been fixed, but there are still problems with the processing machinery. I don't know where to buy."
Xiao Peng gave him a white look: "You won't call Wenjie to ask? You don't understand doesn't mean that others don't understand! Or if I call you Nelson Wharton, although he is in Wa, he is familiar here after all. You have to be on your own, and you have to learn to be in charge!"
Di Wei nodded after hearing this: "By the way, your Centurion Card. The machine has been negotiated, and all 24 machines will be delivered within 30 days. Tariffs and other costs are all covered by the other party, and each unit is $178,000. The contract has been signed and the deposit has been paid. Brother Peng, are you satisfied with this price?"
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "It's much better than I thought. Okay, you will go back to the hotel later, and I will go to the library later."
Di Wei shook his head: "Brother Peng, I'll go with you."
Xiao Peng puzzled: "Don't you like reading books?"
Di Wei smiled bitterly: "You have worked so hard so successfully, how can I be qualified not to study."
Xiao Peng laughed, and the two went back to the library again for two days. Then I went to Bloomberg's house.
"Damn it. Brother Peng, I'm not dreaming, am I?" Di Wei asked with his mouth wide open, "The reception you said was held here? Are you sure you are not kidding me?"
Di Wei raised his head and looked at the blue glass building in front of him. This is nowhere else, but one of the most expensive apartment buildings in the world: one57 building on 57th Street in Manhattan.
Xiao Peng patted Di Wei's head: "Let's go, don't be ashamed here!" After speaking, he raised his foot and walked towards the apartment building.
The one57 building is connected to the five-star Park Hyatt Hotel. The lower 30 floors are the Park Hyatt Hotel. The homeowners living here can use the hotel’s swimming pool, SPA, bar and restaurant, cleaning and dry cleaning services. But despite being connected to the hotel, one57 has his own entrance and exit, with a dedicated butler and doorman on duty 24 hours a day.
This building was completed in 2016. Before the entire building was completed, all the apartments in the building were sold out. Of course, there were not many. The 60-story building has only 92 apartments in total, the most expensive one. The set sold for 145 million US dollars.
Buyers here are all local tyrants from all over the world, especially Chinese and Russian buyers. Once a Chinese mother was here and bought an apartment worth about 60 million meters for her two-year-old daughter. Caused a sensation: The reason she bought the house was to prepare her daughter to attend a prestigious New York school in the future, and her daughter is less than two years old.
When the two arrived at the entrance of the building, a butler in a tuxedo walked out: "Is Mr. Xiao Peng of China, right?"
Xiao Peng was taken aback: "Yes, it's me." It seems that not all Stars and Stripes people are blind. At least the butler knows himself, but after thinking about it, Xiao Peng finds it funny again. Bloomberg is afraid of Pa Did things happen again in Tihurst? God knows how much work he did in advance.
The butler bowed slightly and made a gesture of ‘please’, guiding the two of them into the elevator, and directly pressed down the 88th floor in the elevator.
Xiao Peng looked at the floor and cursed: "What's the matter, is Michael showing me his wealth?"
Di Wei asked: "Brother Peng, what do you mean by this?"
Xiao Peng replied: "In this apartment building, except for the seven floors from 32 to 38, there are 38 so-called'slightly affordable' hard-covered apartments of different types and sizes. All the rest are one storey. Households! The higher the price, the higher the price. The top ninety floors sold for 145 million U.S. dollars, and Michael’s apartment costs more than 100 million U.S. dollars.
Di Wei broke his fingers and settled: "God, if you don't live here, you have to pay several million dollars in real estate taxes every year?"
Xiao Peng nodded: "So, if you are not a real rich man, it is possible to live here."
Di Wei said in a speech: "Brother Peng, do you think I can live in this building one day?"
Xiao Peng thought for a while after hearing this: "It's okay if you go to the Park Hyatt Hotel below, but are you going to buy a house here." Xiao Peng paused when he said that, "It's not impossible. Here 32 The house price on the 38th floor is more than US$50,000 per flat, and the smallest unit seems to be 127 square meters. If you work hard for a few years, it is still very promising."
Di Wei broke off his fingers and forgot, then gave up directly. According to Xiao Peng, the cheapest one is also six million?
Xiao Peng looked at Di Wei’s expression and laughed: "The price of more than 50,000 yuan per square meter is far lower than the average price of this building! The average price of this building is more than US$80,000 per square meter, the most expensive. The floor has reached 150,000 US dollars per square meter!"
Di Wei said angrily: "Isn't it said that the economy is down, the real estate industry is down? Whoever said this sentence should let them come here."
Xiao Peng shrugged: "Actually, it's really sluggish here now, but I can't hold back the rich Chinese to buy a house. Back then, Liu Yiqian, who swiped his Centurion Card 24 times in order to take a picture of the "Chicken Cup", and the Hong Kong Island fashion industry Tycoon Cao Qifeng bought real estate here. The Chen brothers, the founder of Hainan Airlines, bought two floors here. There are also many unknown Chinese wealthy people who also bought real estate here. Just like I said earlier, they are two years old. Daughters who are going to school, rich women, etc. etc. So the housing prices here have always been high. Take the top floor as an example. Last year, the price just exceeded 100 million yuan, but this year it has risen by tens of millions. As long as there are Chinese places, housing prices It will go up!"
Xiao Peng said that is not nonsense. Take the Stars and Stripes as an example. The city with the highest average house price here is not New York or Los Angeles, but San Francisco! Because there are the most Chinese!
Most people from Star Stripe people, especially young people, don't like buying a house, because once they can't afford to buy a house, it will affect their personal credit. The consumption, employment, medical care, and daily life of the star-stripe countries are all related to credit. Moreover, after buying a house, you have to bear the real estate tax. It is better to wait for the age to buy.
Although the laws of the states in the Stars and Stripes are different, they are basically tax-free for the elderly. Therefore, people in Star Stripe are really not interested in buying a house.
But Huaxia people are different. The love of Huaxia people for the house is in the bones!
Huaxia has been an agricultural country since ancient times. The "Historical Records-Huo Shi Biography" clearly shows that since the Han Dynasty, Huaxia people like to use "land" to keep money Call it'mo', and exchange the money earned by'mo' for land, which means'original' to keep money. This is where the term ‘put the cart before the horse’s roots’ came from. Therefore, Huaxia people like to buy houses wherever they go.
Of course, there is another situation in China that makes people have to buy a house: you can rent a house for work, you can rent a house for marriage, and you can rent a house if you have a child. However, after the child goes to school, the school says that he needs a residence permit and real estate certificate. ? Who makes it that only in China, the house is bound to the household registration and school district?
The two were still chatting, the elevator had reached the eighty-eighth floor, and the elevator door opened. Bloomberg and McAfee were standing at the door: "Xiao, you are here." Bloomberg smiled and said hello.
Xiao Peng said: "Michael, John, are you too grand, are you still standing here to welcome guests?" After finishing speaking, he shook hands with Bloomberg and McAfee.
Bloomberg smiled: "No way, there are many guests here today. Of course, as the host, I have to stand here to welcome guests."
McAfee said,
I’m just waiting for you. I didn’t want to come, but I heard that you came, so I came here on purpose. Today I’ll drink less here. When I get to New York, it’s my place. In the evening we were having a good drink."
Bloomberg said, "Hey, John, you're too much. As soon as Xiao came here, you planned to take him away? I knew I would not invite you."
McAfee looked at Di Wei: "We seem to have met..."
"In Arizona! You guys have tried alcohol!" Xiao Peng said silently.
McAfee said with a bitter face: "I drank amnesia that day, okay? I thought I could drink well, alas, I won't drink with you in the future. There is no such way to drink water!"
