Chapter 166: Lack of a Headquarters

After figuring out the situation.

Su Mu was speechless, and said to the white young man behind him: "I have known her for a long time, can I steal the poster?"

"Who knows, I put it up three times, and the first two posters were stolen by others......"

The other party didn't believe Su Mu's words, and smiled after seeing Kate's stills, most of them admired her.

A few years ago, when she was still at Castellar Public High School, Su Mu was full of "rivals in love", and she was no stranger to this situation, Kate was still the same beautiful girl as before, and it was normal for someone to like her.

In recent years, he has known many wonderful girls, some of them are talented, some of them are kind-hearted, and they are not actually familiar with Kate, just because they took a look at it when they were young, and then they had a crush on it for several years.

Su Mu himself didn't understand why he liked her for so long.

At the beginning, it was because Kate's appearance made him feel comfortable, when he was young, who didn't stare at his face and figure, and then it slowly became an obsession, and now it has almost dissipated, and when he sees her photo again, the memory is clear again.

People have weaknesses, Su Mu is too indecisive about the feelings of men and women, and he himself knows that this is not a good thing, just like this time, he could have gone to Brown University, which is closer to Harvard University, to find Miss Lily, but this time he came to New York.

A few years ago, too, Kate gave him the opportunity to pursue himself, but then he was busy with his career and studies, and even though he lived in Beverly Hills, he never went to Hollywood to find Kate, not once.

In the final analysis, Su Mu felt that it was impossible for him and Kate to be together, even if he was worth tens of millions of dollars at the time, he still hesitated, worried that even if she agreed, he would not be able to talk for long, worried that he would be disappointed in the end, and worried that the good memories would come to naught.

All kinds of trivial worries made Su Mu not look for her.

At first, I thought about it, but then I really forgot to go to Kate, and only now do I understand a truth - there will be no story if you don't take the initiative.

I thought that if I had tried it then, maybe there would have been a different story now, which could be good or bad, but I would never regret it like I did now.

When I really came to the School of Visual Arts in New York, I realized that I had no reason to come to Kate at all.

In a daze, I heard the white young man ask, "At seven o'clock tonight, Kate is performing in the school auditorium, and we are going to support her together?"

"No, I've got something to do. ”

Su Mu shook his head decisively, walked back with a relaxed expression, and breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had drawn an end to the past.

At the school gate, Kate and several female classmates passed by him on a bicycle, only to see a side face, overlapping the image of Su Mu with the face in her memory, and holding the handbrake hard.

Next to her, her friend also stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

Looking back and back, she only saw a back, Kate shook her head and said, "It's okay, I seem to have seen an acquaintance, but he shouldn't come here......"

Alone in New York, Su Mu has nowhere to go.

Since he came to New York with Li Ping'an on Christmas '84, he has been here twice, once to take his family on vacation and once to handle business, and the penguin computer has been sold to the East Coast, and the sales are still very low.

Now the mayor of New York is a white man who likes to eat Chinese food and gives himself a Chinese name, and in the late seventies, New York City Hall almost went bankrupt, but after his governance, it was slightly better, and the law and order and environment were still dirty and messy.

This summer, there was even a scandal in Central Park in which female white-collar workers were abused in public, which was considered representative of New York's bad order.

Scandals aside, Manhattan's bustling neighborhood is vibrant, with spectacular high-rise buildings and lots of segregated lots under construction.

He was walking alone on the street, and suddenly wanted to buy a building in New York, or buy some shops on Fifth Avenue to invest, a typical nouveau riche mentality, Su Mu never felt that he was an aristocrat, young and vigorous, and wanted to show off.

While other companies mostly build high-rise buildings after making money, the higher the better, while Penguin and Spider still work in rented office buildings, and the headquarters of Qugou Supermarket is always an old warehouse, which is embarrassing to think about.

At this moment, my eyes happened to see the Empire State Building.

Then I remembered that the New York Times recently published the news that a certain company was trying to buy the Empire State Building, and the Prudential Insurance Company, which currently owns the high-rise building, is preparing to sell the Empire State Building in its entirety through auction.

In recent years, the United States has been the largest commercial competitor of the United States, and a large number of cheap goods manufactured by the company have entered the US market, resulting in a huge trade deficit, coupled with Cold War military spending, the United States has fallen into debt difficulties, so it intervened in the depreciation of the dollar through the "Plaza Accord", resulting in a sharp appreciation of the yuan.

Some say that I am trying to buy the proud Rockefeller Center of the United States, and some say that I am preparing to buy Columbia Pictures and are negotiating a specific amount, and that island country has greatly appreciated the value of American real estate, which is a good opportunity for investment.

In addition, the establishment of the World Communication Network Alliance, which is about to make money, has confidence in his heart, Su Mu is thinking at the moment, why not buy the Empire State Building, and use it as his company's headquarters after the renovation, and the extra floors can be rented out.

The starting price is only about $30 million, and if you mortgage your shares to the bank and take out a loan, you can afford it, and the profit prospects are great, and you don't have to worry about not making money for the time being, at least thanks to CNC, Penguin and Spider have good prospects.

Thinking of this, Su Mu beckoned to a taxi and asked the driver to take him downstairs to the Empire State Building.

The Empire State Building is located on Fifth Avenue, covering an area of more than 200,000 square meters, with a height of 381 meters and a total of 103 floors, and after the addition of a 62-meter-long antenna in 1951, the total height was immediately increased to more than 400 meters.

Circling around the Empire State Building, he also bought a ticket to squeeze the elevator with others, and looked at the cityscape of Manhattan from the rooftop observation deck, which was satisfying no matter how he looked at it.

He took out his mobile phone to make a call, there was no tall building to block it, the signal was very good, he asked Blake on the other end of the phone, "What do you think I bought the Empire State Building?"

I'm on the roof of the Empire State Building, its owner is going to sell it, the view is amazing, when our company is bigger, we can use this building to work, the building is a bit old, but it should be nice to spend money to renovate it. ”

When the black security guard heard this, after looking at Su Mu, his eyes were full of contempt, and he laughed and told his companion next to him: "This yellow-skinned guy actually wants to buy our Empire State Building!"

Without controlling his voice, Su Mu heard it, looked back at the black security guard, and smiled: "If you dare to joke with my skin color again, I will be the first to fire you when the time comes......"
