"Sit inside? The excellent Jamaican Blue Mountain just bought." Johnny called the waiter over to look at the cash register for him, and took Yang Cheng to the office inside.
went all the way and found that the layout of the video store was a little different from what he had remembered. He couldn't help but wonder, "Johnny, are you redecorating?"
Johnny opened the office door, without turning his head back, "No, but the shelf has been changed to make it easier for customers to choose. Come in, wait for a while."
Seeing Johnny holding a coffee cup and going out again, he hurriedly stopped, "No, Johnny, you know I don’t like coffee too much, just pour me a glass of water."
The Americans are very straightforward. If you say no or no, you will not shirk anymore. Pour water in a disposable paper cup and put it in front of Yang Cheng. He sighed, "Oh... To be honest, Jason, I find that I am not suitable for business. ."
"Why do you say that? I have made a lot of money in the past few years, and I am a little envious." Yang Cheng was a little surprised, loosened his tie, unbuttoned the top button, and breathed a sigh of relief. He was still not comfortable with wearing a suit. a feeling of.
Johnny raised his hand and touched his bald head, and laughed at himself, "In those few years, I was lucky. First I won the lottery. Then I went to Las Vegas and made money playing slot machines. Now my luck is gone. I found that the best thing for me is to buy a pasture to raise cattle and herd sheep. That kind of work does not require too much brainstorming."
Yang Cheng smiled, "Your money is enough for you to live a life in style."
Johnny didn't evade this, and nodded proudly, "Yes, but I can't stay idle, I still want to do something."
"Well, Johnny, let's get it straight, are you asking me to come here to terminate the contract?" Yang Cheng was not interested in listening to his life plan, and straightforward.
"Yes, I am not going to implement the last year of the contract. I came to you just to discuss the liquidated damages with you..."
Yang Cheng sneered in his heart, "I thought this old guy had changed sex, it turned out to be playing an emotional card with me."
"You know Johnny, businessisbusiness, you will have to pay liquidated damages for breach of contract. There is no room for negotiation." Yang Cheng's words were very blunt, leaving no room for fantasy.
Sure enough, when it comes to self-interest, this old guy has restored his gangster appearance, his face is very ugly, "Jason, don't say anything to death, you can listen to my proposal first, and then make a decision?"
Yang Cheng raised his hand noncommittal.
"I will be closed at the end of the year, and I will pay you three months' rent as liquidated damages, which is 7 million US dollars?"
"Not very good, this proposal is utterly bad, Johnny, I suggest you go study math, you don’t understand such a simple account, according to the contract, the penalty is 1 full year rent, which is three thousand and thirty. If it is more than ten thousand dollars, I don’t want any fractions, so I put it together to 30 million dollars.
And even if I agree, the rent for three months should be 7.6 million U.S. dollars, not 7 million U.S. dollars, 600,000 is not a small amount, it is enough for me to buy a Lamborghini, let alone I still disagree. "Yang Cheng stood up and talked with a smile, not worrying about Johnny's clenched fist.
It’s not that Yang Cheng is cruel, but that he respects the contract. If it’s only a few months away, then Yang Cheng will also care about the cooperation and don’t pay for the contract. But the other party is now asking for termination of the contract a year and a half in advance, and suddenly, where does he go to find a new one? If the tenant is vacant for a year and a half, he won’t be compensated?
Face and $30 million a year are less important, fools know how to choose, face is worth a few dollars, the big deal is when you don’t know each other in the future, but money is a cent.
This is not an apartment of tens of square meters. A single contract with hundreds of millions of dollars in existence is a trifling matter.
Two steps forward, he patted Johnny on the shoulder, and said calmly, "I suggest you stick to it. More than a year will pass quickly. Even if the business is in a downturn, you can get some cost back. Finally Loss is also better than paying liquidated damages.
Otherwise, if you bring me a new tenant, it is not impossible to sublet your contract. Anyway, consider these two paths. If you think about it, call me. "
Yang Cheng’s suggestion is true. If you continue to do it, even if you lose a few million dollars, it is better than wasting 30 million dollars in vain. This shows that his heart is still very ‘kind’, um. . . Listen seriously!
I woke up in the morning and went out without breakfast. At this moment, my stomach was grunting and I was about to call Megan to accompany him for dinner, but the phone rang first.
"Dad, what's the matter?" Yang Cheng sat in the car and answered the phone.
"Well, I have something to do with you, where are you?"
"I just came out of the store, and I am going to find a place to eat." Yang Cheng said.
"Oh, that's right, you come to the company, have lunch together, and say something by the way."
Yang Cheng still wants to have a second spring breeze with Megan, but my dad can't help but summon it, which is a pity.
"Okay, we will arrive in a while."
Started the car, turned around and drove to Wall Street, where the headquarters of Yuanshan Capital was located.
Wall Street is located in Manhattan’s XC District, extending from Broadway Avenue along the East River. It is only one-third of a mile long, more than 500 meters in length, and only 11 meters in width. The streets are narrow and short, but it is the financial center of the United States and the world. In the center, there is the headquarters of the old American family consortium, and the location of famous stock exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq.
Different from the liveliness and vocals in movies and TV, it looks very light. The few Wall Street elites took advantage of the lunch break to take the street to breathe the fresh air, but Yang Cheng only saw the numbness from their faces, which happened to be The tour group visited this legendary street under the guidance of a guide. The faces of the tourists were full of admiration and admiration. Among them, Yang Cheng found that most of them were yellow skin, and secretly guessed whether it was a fellow.
Open the car window, I don’t know if it’s the weather or his illusion. I always feel that the air here is a bit gloomy. No wonder Wall Street in the film and television footage, people always wear suits and windbreakers, walking hurriedly in the cold wind, here is selfish. There is no emotion at all for the benefit.
licked his lips. Only when I have been here in person do I know that Wall Street is not as beautiful as imagined.
He sighed and parked the car in front of a 20-storey old office building. The oldness does not mean that the building is dilapidated, but most of the buildings on Wall Street are influenced by the decorative arts of the gilded age. Yang Cheng, who was in a modern glass building, was a little uncomfortable, too cold and gloomy.
The sky is getting darker, and the breeze rolls up the fallen leaves, which is rather bleak.
sent a message to dad, and before waiting, the co-pilot's door was opened.
"You can eat by yourself, I may be back later in the afternoon." Yang Cheng heard his father tell his assistant Elena, a beautiful woman of Eastern European descent, with a sweet appearance, black hair and black eyes, in line with the aesthetics of the East.
Yang Cheng leaned her head and nodded and smiled at Ailena. She wears an OL uniform and black stockings to highlight her slim figure. Such a woman has to be a vase even if she is unable to work. If she is tired from work, look at the beautiful women and relieve their mental pressure. , As for. . . Keke, stop talking, think for yourself.
"Where to eat?"
"Go to Water Street, there is a nice Italian restaurant." Yang Sen said, looking at the interior of the car.
"How do you drive this car? I haven't drove it a few times after I bought it." Yang Sen asked curiously. Now he rarely drives. He usually has a Bentley Mulsanne driven by a driver to pick up and drop off this Audi S8. This Audi S8 is still bought on a whim. It was used, but there was no time to open it, so it was abandoned in the garage. Usually, the old John will send someone to maintain it, just like the new one.
Yang Cheng looked at the rearview mirror, waited for the car to pass, and turned on the turn signal to change the line, "I came out in the morning to talk about things. It is not very good to drive a sports car. This car is good. It has the stability of a business car without losing the sports performance of a sports car. , And it’s more comfortable to drive than Ferrari."
Indeed, in general, apart from wearing 13, driving a sports car is uncomfortable, sitting low, and the line of sight is not good, especially for patients like Yang Cheng who hurt his waist, it is a torture. Of course, he is not for this reason. I would say it, too shameful.
Yang Sen nodded clearly, "It's really good, but the interior is too ugly."
Yang Cheng laughed when he heard his father spit out like his mother casually, "It's really suitable for the elderly, it doesn't matter, that is, occasionally."
"What are you talking about this morning?" Yang Sen asked, pointing in the direction of the hotel.
"It's the video store owner who rented my store, the one in the Powerball lottery. He wanted to cancel the contract in advance and couldn't do it anymore." He leaned the car over according to Yang Sen's instructions.
"People nowadays have too little spirit of contract. If it doesn't work, you should not come out in person and let the lawyer talk." Yang Sen was not pleased.
got out of the car and handed the key to the parking brother. The father and son walked into the restaurant one after another.
"Mr. Yang, welcome." Apparently Yang Sen came to patronize often, and the lobby manager immediately greeted him.
"Hello, the two of us, the dishes will be served according to my reservation, faster." Yang Sen walked to the reserved seat familiarly. U U Reading www.uukanshu.cOM
While waiting for the dishes to be served, Yang Sen said to Yang Cheng,
The board of directors has passed the proposal to invest in Delta Air Lines and has already sent people to contact some minority shareholders. This matter cannot be urgent. After all, it is a listed company with a market value of more than 20 billion. Shareholders can only figure it out slowly."
The two of them are seated in the back, so there is no need to worry about being heard. "I know, but the board passed so quickly? No objection?"
Yang Cheng knows that the board of directors has not been peaceful recently. An early veteran is arguing about a separation recently. Listening to Yang Sen's calm and calm words seems to have no energy.
"Who would object to making money? Don't worry, I will solve the company's affairs. I am a little curious about how you can get 10 hundreds of millions of dollars." Yang Sen took a piece of bread, wiped it with butter, and swallowed it half and half. in.
Yang Cheng shrugged her shoulders pretendingly, and changed the subject, "You called me here just to tell you this."
"Of course not, it was Louis Lehman. I received the news this morning. I was basically sure of the purpose of that bastard. Ha, let alone, without this drama, I really hadn't noticed that there was something hidden on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. A big gold mine, huh, this time I won’t get him out of shit, so I won’t be surnamed Yang, MD. I decided to hit Lao Tzu on the head, and I was impatient."
forced the dad, who has always been elegant, to speak swear words, which shows that he is really angry this time.
Yang Sen's sly sneer reminded Yang Cheng of seeing the animal world in his previous life. Before the hunt, the fox had a treacherous expression that seemed like nothing, and he shuddered subconsciously. It seemed that Louis Lehman was going to be unlucky for him. Take a moment of silence, or half a second.
Outside the window, accompanied by rumbling thunder, the sky seemed to be torn open, and the torrential rain poured down into a waterfall. . .
