Chapter 255: High-risk occupations

In a coffee shop in Burbank, Ronan met the investment manager of Merrill Lynch.
"Hello, Ronan." Scott greeted Ronan politely: "It's been a long time."
Ronan smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, right?"
The last time they met, the two met in Santa Monica. At that time Ronan was in trouble, and Scott hurriedly walked by, just saying hello.
Scott smiled and said, "Yes."
Ronan looked at Scott calmly. As before, he was dressed in suits and ties, and his hair was meticulously combed. He looked like a business elite.
But the neat and neat dress can't conceal the haggardness on his face and the anxiety between his expressions.
Think about the current stock market, and then contact Scott's work, Ronan is not difficult to guess.
"Something to do with me?" Ronan asked.
Scott hesitated and stopped, it seemed difficult to speak.
Ronan made a joke: "Isn't it looking for me to invest? Now the stock market is like this, not suitable for investment."
"Of course not." Scott smiled, but his smile was a little reluctant.
I think more than a year ago, Ronan advised him more than once not to use his money to play stocks. Even if he invested his own money in the stock market, he had to withdraw early depending on the situation.
Even after Ronan withdrew from the stock market, he reminded him that enough is enough.
It’s a pity that greed has blinded my eyes. I don’t know that the stock market has soared to that level. It’s already dangerous, but I always think that someone will come to pick up the market later, who can throw the pot to the people behind, and bring a lot of profit Retreat safely.
The results of it?
Don't be too miserable, not to mention that the family is clean and the bank owes a large debt.
Scott looked at Ronan's young face, and then thought about himself. After so many years in the stock market, he couldn't understand it better than a young man.
That's right, Ronan's career is steadily rising, but he has fallen to the bottom.
Those who can't control their greed will eventually be punished. The price of this punishment is so painful that people can't wait to jump downstairs.
Had it not been for his wife and children, maybe he would have gone to the Golden Gate Bridge last year...
Ronan looked at him, "Scott, we are old friends. Let's just talk about it."
Scott opened his mouth, asking for help is the hardest to speak, but thinking of the experience of the past year, the wife and children in the family said: "Ronan, I... I have some financial problems."
Ronan asked, "Due to the stock market?"
Scott nodded slowly and heavily: "I didn't get out in time. When the stock market fell sharply, I refused to accept the reality. I thought it was a short-term adjustment. I missed the best take-off meeting. I was locked up directly. No one wants to take over. I owe a lot of money to the bank. The Brentwood house was taken away by the bank. Almost all clients in terms of work were gone. Merrill Lynch laid off employees in the first two months. I..."
His voice became deeper and deeper: "I was laid off by Merrill Lynch. I lost my job. My family can't guarantee even the most basic source of income. The bank is still collecting debts. I negotiated with them to pay them back in installments."
Ronan roughly understood what Scott meant, and probably couldn't find another way. In his situation, no one wanted to lend them.
In case of jumping off the stairs, the borrower will lose his money.
"Scott." Ronan was a wise man. Without asking Scott to ask for help, he asked, "Have you found a new job?"
"Not yet." Scott shook his head.
Ronan and Scott have worked together for a long time, and they know this person well and have good abilities, but the overall situation is relatively average.
Of course, it is normal to fall so badly this time.
In 2000, the Nasdaq bubble burst frantically. Who made a lot of money?
Ordinary people, many rich people are full of blood.
The owner of the investment company who bought the Future World and went bankrupt before even moving in, estimated that his wealth was more than ten times that of Scott, and he still went bankrupt.
Ronan's head kept turning, and soon thought of the plan that has been on paper. It seems that Scott can do some preliminary preparations, so that he can prepare for the formal formation in the future, and can actually investigate the next step. This guy Kurt.
Thinking of this, Ronan asked directly: "Scott, do you understand the operation of the foundation?"
Scott gave Ronan a surprised look, and said, "I understand. In fact, anyone who does the job of investment manager knows the foundation's operating model." He is not a fool, and asked: "Ronan, you Have a foundation?"
"I am going to set up a foundation." Ronan said roughly: "Investment funds."
Originally intended to wait for Lawyer Dinah to spend this time before letting her plan.
Ronan took a sip of coffee and said, "Since you know the foundation, you should be very clear that the establishment of a foundation requires a lot of materials and many procedures. I need someone who can be trusted to help."
Scott immediately understood Ronan's meaning: "Ronan, I..."
Ronan waved his hand: "Don't say this, listen to me."
Ronan couldn't make a decision rashly on this kind of thing, and chatted with Scott for a long time to make sure that he really understood the preparation and operation of the foundation.
And there is basically no problem coping with this job.
Ronan said, "Scott, I believe in your ability and personality, so I thought about hiring you."
"Thank you." Scott said the words just now: "Thank you, Ronan, thank you very much."
At this moment, the pressure on my heart is much less.
Ronan briefly talked about salary. Scott accepted his personal employment, which had nothing to do with Relativity Entertainment.
He has read a lot of information about the foundation and laws and regulations before, and when the preparation conditions are right, he will set up a foundation independent of the Relativity Entertainment Group.
Scott looked at Ronan gratefully, with vision, ability, and understanding of the world. Such young people are too rare.
I'm afraid Ronan knew what he meant when it came to Merrill Lynch layoffs.
But Ronan didn't ask him to ask someone to borrow money. Instead, he offered him a job and paid two months in advance, which not only preserved the man's face, but also solved most of the practical difficulties.
After talking about the specific work, Ronan said: "Tomorrow I will give you some specific information, and you will start the preparatory work... Well, before the end of August, the foundation must be officially registered and established. Legal issues... …"
He took out his cell phone, found the contact information of Dinah's lawyer, and sent it to Scott, saying, "This is my lawyer. You can ask her for any legal questions."
Scott saved his contact information and said, "Okay."
Ronan added: "You pay more attention to the previous work. Attorney Dinah is now busy with other tasks. When the matter at hand is almost done, I will come and help you."
Scott nodded again and again. The stone on his chest seemed to have been removed for the past year, and his breathing became easier.
In fact, he knows very well that this is just the preparatory work for the registration of the foundation. It is like this kind of work. I don't know how many people can do in the United States. Ronan gave him an opportunity. Isn't it a test?
If it is not done well, it is not a problem at all to replace people.
The two chatted in the coffee shop for a long time, and they agreed to meet again at Shahai Entertainment the next day, and Scott offered to leave.
Ronan was leaving too, and went out of the cafe with Scott.
"Andria and Taylor are okay?" Ronan asked caringly as he walked: "I haven't seen them for a long time."
Scott looked haggard, but his smile relaxed a lot, and said: "Everything is fine, Taylor asked me some time ago, when will you be a guest again."
Ronan smiled and said, "I must go again when I have time."
Scott did not invite him. From an independent villa to a rented house, the psychological gap was not so easy to adjust.
He turned the subject away and said, "I didn't think it was until last year that I knew that my eyes were so short. This period of time is really too difficult."
As a beneficiary of the stock market, Ronan didn't know how to answer, so he didn't say anything at all.
Scott added: "Last month, I went to Mexico with the last bit of money I had. Fortunately...I didn't go crazy."
Ronan understood the meaning of these words and said, "If you do something, you can't look back."
Scott let out a sigh of relief, seeming to be rejoicing, and then said, "I will go to your office to see you tomorrow. The place hasn't changed?"
"No." Ronan shook hands with Scott goodbye.
A man went to Mexico for his family...
Having said that, this is not the most dangerous occupation in Mexico, the reverse is true.
Tax evasion in the United States, drug trafficking in the East, and drug prohibition in Mexico are among the highest occupations in the world.
Ronan got on the Cadillac and told David to drive to Shahai Entertainment. He returned to the office to sort out some materials he had prepared when he learned about the Foundation's cases and laws and regulations, and handed it to Scott, who came back the next day. At the same time, he specifically called Dinah's attorney, focusing on the matter that Scott is temporarily responsible for preparing for the registration of the foundation on his side.
The materials are definitely not enough, but there is someone responsible for ~EbookFREE.me~ what is needed later, just fill up.
Ronan is not very anxious, as long as the foundation can be registered and established before September, and then wait quietly for the American economy to continue to suffer heavy losses after September.
As for trying to find a way to rescue the innocent people on the World Trade Center, Ronan did not even consider the unreliable idea.
If such a thing is done, it will cost a painful price if it is not done well.
With Ronan's little capital, maybe he won't see the sun in the second half of his life.
After the incident, it is a big deal to donate some money.
Having said that, in the style of certain charity organizations, the ghost knows how much money can fall on the victims in the end.
Ronan is not very clear. It seems that there has been a scandal in the previous 911 donations?
The North American movie summer archive has already begun, "The Bourne Shadow" will be released in more than a month, and the publicity is also increasing.
