Looking at Grigory Piaggio, Chen Geng smiled......

Looking at the heavyweight of the Piaggio family with a playful face, Chen Geng said slowly: "So, this is a big project with an investment of 100 million US dollars, and I can only get 20% of the shares for 20 million US dollars?"

Grigory Piaggio nodded, his expression calm: "That's the ......"

"A super commercial project of 100 million US dollars," Chen Geng suddenly sighed: "So as a super large project with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, there is not even a prospect analysis or anything like that?"

“......”

Hearing Chen Geng's words, the expression on Grigory Biaggio's face suddenly froze.

Not only did Grigory Piaggio's face freeze, but Giugiaro also looked embarrassed.

As soon as Chen Geng's words came out, both of them realized what a serious mistake Grigory Biaggio had just made: who did he think of this Mr. Fernández in front of him?

It's 1979, and you're just $100 million, do you know how much wealth $100 million was in 1979?

Let's not talk about whether your Biaggio's business jet project requires such a large amount of money to start, even if it really needs so much money, but such a large investment, shouldn't the negotiation team of the two sides go through repeated see-sawing and repeated pulling to determine the rights, responsibilities and obligations of both parties, and finally sign a contract, how to get to you, as simple as everyone meeting together to go fishing?

Is my money worthless, or are you Grigory Piaggio floating?

How much was $100 million worth in 1979, perhaps we can use a less accurate data as a reference: the one that had just entered service in 1978, The purchase price of the F-16, the most advanced third-generation light fighter of the US Air Force, is less than $8 million, and many senators in the United States have harshly criticized General Electric, the manufacturer of the F-16 fighter, because in 1975, General Electric's forecast for the F-16 fighter was about $5 million......

If this does not accurately reflect how much wealth $100 million is, then the first Forbes 400 list of America's richest people launched by Forbes magazine in 1982 may be a more intuitive explanation of the value of this money:

This list clearly shows that the entry threshold to become the 400 richest people in the United States is $75 million, which means that as long as you have a total asset of $75 million, you will be one of the 400 richest people in the United States.

In 1982, the personal wealth of Luther Keane Ludwig, the richest man in the United States and the richest man in the world, was $2 billion;

Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, has a personal fortune of $690 million;

Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple Computer, became the youngest billionaire on the first Forbes 400 at the age of 27, and his fortune was $100 million;

There is another person, Mr. Trump, who will become the president of the United States, and in 1982 his wealth was only "meagrely" $100 million......

Of course, Chen Geng has enough reasons to be dissatisfied: Speaking of which, don't look at how much respect you have for me, but in your heart, you just don't take me seriously.

Since you don't take me seriously, then don't blame me for not giving you face - Chen Geng's impression of Grigory Biaggio was quite good, but after his words, Chen Geng's impression of him was simply bad.

Without waiting for Grigory Biaggio to speak, Chen Geng said unceremoniously: "Mr. Biaggio, based on your lax attitude, I feel that I need to think carefully about whether it is necessary to invest in this project...... Mr. Giugiaro, I'm so sorry. ”

Giugiaro smiled bitterly, Chen Gengdu said this, what else could he say? Besides, Gregory is really ...... today Alas, don't say it.

........................

Grigory Piaggio left, and the old man Giugiaro apologized to Chen Geng again: "Fernandez, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect this to happen......"

"It's okay," Chen Geng waved his hand: "It's all over, don't mind, old man." ”

"No, I have to apologize to you," Giugiaro shook his head and said seriously: "Gregory is my friend, I'm really sorry for this happened, but he really didn't mean to, it's just ......"

"Mr. Giugiaro," Chen Geng sighed without waiting for Giugiaro to finish speaking, and you still excuse him when it comes to this? Are you really stupid for me Chen Geng?"

"I ...... This ......"

Looking at Chen Geng's eyes that seemed to be able to see through his heart at a glance, Giugiaro suddenly couldn't say a word: as for the reason why Gregory would make such a rude move, Chen Geng's heart was like a mirror - to put it bluntly, he just looks down on himself as a Chinese, if he is a white American, do you dare to do this?

Originally, Giugiaro wanted to ask Chen Geng if he was still ready to cooperate with Piaggio, but as soon as Chen Geng said this, he knew that the cooperation he promoted was yellow.

Thinking of this, Giugiaro couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The R&D and manufacturing of aircraft, even if it is only a small civil aircraft, wants to pass various strict certifications and obtain the qualification for sales in the market, and its initial investment is also quite huge. It is a long time, usually at least ten or even twenty years, such a long investment period, it is not realistic to rely on a company to survive, it is considering that his relationship with Gregory is not bad, Giugiaro specially introduced Chen Geng to the Piaggio family, and for this reason, he also put on his old face, I didn't expect that Gregory guy is really ......

It's as stupid as a pig!

Wasted all your kindness!

If it weren't for helping him, why would he take this old face to beg for help? Yes, his Fernandez design skills are very good, but he is also recognized as a world-recognized top car design master, B Ge is higher than his Chen Geng, in the eyes of outsiders, he came to visit Chen Geng with some disregard for his identity, does he really want to see his Fernandes's grasp of the car design language?

Thinking of this, Giugiaro was tired for a while.

Giugiaro, who was depressed inside, didn't pay much attention to the 1:1 full-scale clay model and full-size wooden cockpit model of the Victoria Crown designed by Chen Geng for Ford, and then left after a hasty tour.

"Giugiaro doesn't seem to be happy. "Sending Giugiaro off, there's something strange about Rosemary.

"Well," Chen Geng nodded: "If a liar happily comes to deceive you, but finds that it doesn't work, you won't be happy if it's you." ”

"You're saying Giugiaro is here to lie to you?" Rosemary felt incredulous, even a little unacceptable, Giugiaro is a world-famous top car design master, how could he deceive people?

Chen Geng looked at Rosemary, who was like a little fan girl, speechlessly: "If you feel that you can't accept it, then think that he came to me for investment with an unreliable project." ”

“......”

Rosemary was speechless: Aren't they all the same!

But everyone was gone, and it was useless to talk about it, so Rosemary quickly adjusted her mood and asked, "There is an event in the Gun Association on the weekend, and they called and asked if you would like to go to it?"

"Gun Association?" Chen Geng didn't take it seriously, and asked casually: "What kind of activity? shooting competition or what? If so, then forget it." ”

Shooting is one of Chen Geng's favorite hobbies, now that he has money, he doesn't have to worry too much, Chen Geng has built a gun collection room in his home, which is full of firearms in service from various countries, and there are hundreds of guns of all kinds.

"They organized a small-scale shooting competition, and invited a retired sniper from Delta, the top three in the competition can get the sniper's guidance, boss, are you interested?"

An opportunity to receive technical guidance from retired snipers of the US special forces "Delta"?

Chen Geng is of course interested, although his shooting skills are not bad, but in the words of the ace sniper of the military region back then, his "gun sense" is average, although he can become a gunner with a good shooting level after hard training, but it is impossible to become a sniper.

Chen Geng also knew that his limited time for training was limited, and his shooting level could only be regarded as above average in the association, but Chen Geng was still very excited to have such an opportunity to receive the guidance of a master, but the retired sniper of the Delta Force was so easy to invite? Chen Geng expressed deep doubts.

"Retired snipers in Delta are not so easy to invite, since these guys have invested so much, they must have a lot of plans, let's say, what do they want to do?"

"Awesome! Boss is indeed boss," Rosemary said with a thumbs up and a smile, "After the event, there is a fundraiser for the presidential candidate, well, our Mr. Mayor will also come over." ”

I understand, it turned out to be the activity of the American Gun Association to raise funds and wave flags for the presidential candidates, which is easy to understand. Speaking of which, although next year will be the busiest time for the presidential election, the presidential candidates have already begun to accumulate strength, and rich people like themselves are the ones they are trying to strive for. Chen Geng nodded and said, "So, the object of the gun association's support is Ronald Reagan?"

"Not only the gun association, but also Ronald," Rosemary nodded, "What about you? Who do you support?"

Now that he knows which president of the United States came to power in 1981, Chen Geng can't support Reagan's rival even if he is stupid, he nodded and said: "Although I look at each of these candidates well, if I have to choose one...... Reagan. ”

........................

Seeing Chen Geng, his big benefactor, Alex Goodrich was very happy, holding Chen Geng's hand and refusing to let go, looking at the group of people who were ready to have a good chat with Mr. Mayor, it was called envy, jealousy and hatred.

"Mr. Fernandez, which of these presidential candidates do you like the most?" After chatting for a while, Alex Goodrich asked Chen Geng in a low voice.

"What? what do you think?" Chen Geng asked with a smile after glancing at Alex Goodrich.

Alex Goodrich didn't deny it, and nodded slightly: "Who doesn't want to take a step up?"

Since Alex Goodrich is so honest, with the good cooperative relationship between the two, Chen Geng no longer sells off, and nods: "I am more optimistic about Mr. Reagan." ”

——————————————

PS: Sorry brothers, there are still hundreds of words left unwritten, please wait for a few more minutes.

In addition, this weekend, I went out to play with my two sons, and I will take a day to accompany my son on the weekend in the future.

"Awesome! Boss is indeed boss," Rosemary said with a thumbs up and a smile, "After the event, there is a fundraiser for the presidential candidate, well, our Mr. Mayor will also come over." ”

I understand, it turned out to be the activity of the American Gun Association to raise funds and wave flags for the presidential candidates, which is easy to understand.
