"Do you want to take out a loan to open a cake shop?"

After the three of them arrived at the vice president's office, Vice President Steve looked at Holly and asked.

"Yes, sir!" Holly nodded.

"Have you ever opened a cake shop before?"

"Nope. ”

"Have you ever worked in a cake shop?"

"No, there isn't. Holly shook her head. "But the cake I made is very tasty, this is the Napoleon cake I made, you can try it!"

Holly handed the Napoleon cake to Steve.

Steve was not polite, took the cake and took a bite.

Under the gaze of three pairs of eyes, Steve ate a piece of cake into his stomach.

"It tastes good, how many kinds of cakes will you make?"

"Because my husband and daughter like to eat cakes, I learn to bake at home every day, and I have also been to a baking training class to learn, I will make the cakes that everyone usually eats, and I will also make birthday cakes, and I make my daughter's birthday cake every year. ”

"But you need management experience to open a store, and you don't have any management experience!"

"Sir, my daughter and I came to Staunton from the chaos of Mexico, and we have received selfless help and care from the people here, and I want to give back to this city that provides accommodation, safety, and hope for our mother and daughter, adding a touch of sweetness to this city and bringing happiness to the people here. I don't know how to manage, I don't want to manage, I just want to use the best ingredients to make every piece of cake carefully, and give back to the city I love and everyone who has helped us. ”

Holly's main purpose in opening the cake shop is not to make money, but to be grateful, she and her daughter have been cared for too much in Staunton, and she wants to thank the city and the people here, without this city, without these people, she and her daughter would have died by the border wall.

"How much money do you need?" asked Steve.

"I calculated that the renovation cost $150,000, because it is a cake shop, and the requirements for environment and hygiene are high, so the decoration will be more expensive, and it will cost $50,000 to buy equipment and raw materials, a total of $200,000. ”

"OK, no problem!" Steve said, very crisply. "The repayment period is 10 years, and it is interest-free for 3 years. However, I can provide you with a low-risk solution, you have no management experience, if the risk of taking out a loan to open a store is too high, in case of bankruptcy, you will be burdened with a debt, you still have a daughter to support, how to bear the cost of your daughter's life and education with a debt?"

"What's the solution?"

Holly also knows that it is indeed very risky that she has not opened a store, and if she really has to lose all her debts, her daughter will have to live a hard life.

"I think your cake is so delicious that I decided to invest in your cake shop, $200,000 JPMorgan Bank is out and the business is bankrupt, and you don't have to pay back a penny or go into debt. ”

"And what do I have to give?"

"You have a 20% stake in this cake shop. It also means that if your cake shop makes money in the future, for every $10 you make, you have to give $2 to Morgan Bank. We don't interfere with your business, we only pay dividends. What do you think, of course, if you don't think it's okay, then I'll handle the loan business for you. ”

It's true that Steve is a typical capitalist vampire, but Holly's words just now still moved him a little.

As a vice president of a branch of JPMorgan Bank, he has met many people, those who are rich and powerful, and those who can speak well, but there are not many people who are grateful. This is also the reason why he uses his power for personal gain to help Holly take risks, otherwise a person with no management experience at all wants to take a loan from him to open a store, daydreaming, not to mention 200,000, 200 yuan He will not give it, Morgan Bank is very rich, but it is not a strong wind!

"Sir, I don't know how to manage, I can only make cakes, and I will probably lose money if you invest!" Holly naturally wanted to get the investment, so that she didn't have to take risks, but she didn't want to fool people.

"It doesn't matter, you just need to make the cake with your heart, I think your cake is very good, and you will definitely succeed. ”

"Thank you, then I choose to accept the investment. ”

"Happy working together!"

"He... Happy working together!"

Steve shook Holly's hand with a smile, and the two signed an investment agreement, he would never have imagined that this cake shop, which was moved to take the risk for Holly for personal gain, would become the most famous cake shop in the world in the future, so that countless people flocked to it, from political leaders and celebrities to tourists who came to Staunton, were its loyal fans, and even the Morgan family gatherings and desserts used to entertain foreign dignitaries were provided by Holly's cake shop.

And among them, Peggy Cake and Rabbit Cake are the necessary things for all children in New York to celebrate their birthdays, if not, they will cry and make trouble and toss for a day, many mothers are heartbroken for a birthday cake! No way, Holly insists on not opening a branch, naturally unable to supply everyone who has a birthday, she only opened a branch for John in her life, or on a distant star!

After visiting the little Morgan Manor, Li Fuzhen and Dean Morgan returned home with a stack of materials.

Dani handed her all the information about Crown Industries, which was a foot thick and she would never be able to read it in a few weeks, but she had a whole winter, which was enough.

Outside, there was goose feather snow in the gray sky, there was a lot of snow in New York in winter, in the warm and bright living room, Dean Morgan and Henry Stewyth Morgan sat in front of the fireplace chatting, Li Fuzhen sat on the side and looked at the information that Dani gave her, but looked at... Li Fu really feels bad, the content on the information is too informative, and she can't bear it!

"Dean, let's go to Little Morgan Manor tomorrow and tear down this company!" Li Fuzhen pulled Dean Morgan, who was chatting with Henry Steyth Morgan.

"What's wrong, why did you push it off?" Dean Morgan looked at Li Fuzhen suspiciously.

"This company is too scary, see for yourself!"

Li Fuzhen handed the information in her hand to Dean Morgan, she had listened to John's words before, and thought that Crown Industry was just a small company that had just been established, so she was willing to take over, but after reading the introduction information, she found that although Crown Industry had just been established, it was definitely not a small company, let alone the kind of small start-up company she imagined, but a giant Mac!

The whole crown industry involves 8 fields, hotels, supermarkets, events, products, cinemas, duty-free shops, department stores, and theme parks.

Among them, Crown Hotels, 3 are under construction, 844 are waiting to be built, of which 18 are seven-star, with a total investment of more than 50 billion US dollars.

Crown Supermarket, one to be built, 3,700 waiting to be built, with a total investment of 90 billion US dollars.

Crown Cinemas, 15 are under construction, 44 are under construction, and 831 are waiting to be built, with a total investment of 70 billion US dollars.

Crown Duty Free Shop, 1 has not been built, 457 are waiting to be built, with a total investment of 22 billion US dollars.

Crown Department Store, 2 under construction, 66 waiting for construction, with a total investment of 7 billion US dollars.

Crown Park, 1 has not been built, 10 are waiting to be built, with a total investment of 46 billion US dollars.

Events, mainly Stanton's F1 races. $5 billion invested.

The main properties are the museums, art galleries, cultural centers, exhibition halls, gymnasiums and ...... that John built in Staunton. The total investment is more than $25 billion.

The total investment in the eight areas is more than 300 billion US dollars, and this is only the initial budget, and the actual investment will definitely exceed the budget.

Managing a company with an investment of more than $300 billion, with a market value of more than $500 billion, Li Fuzhen feels a lot of pressure, even grinding Samsung Group into powder is not worth so much, she is a novice, and she manages a company of hundreds of billions of dollars on the road, and the second generation of the world's richest family has not practiced so much!
