Chapter 247: Visit
Rich people spend money to buy other people's time, and on the other hand, their own time has become longer, and Mr. Weizmann explained very clearly, as long as you spend money to hand over the plane to some professional company to manage, you don't need to worry about other things, you can pay these companies on time, and you can be comfortable.
Raising a private jet, even if you rarely travel, the cost of a year is about one million dollars, which is acceptable at Sumu's current value, so after talking, I began to seriously choose the interior style of the aircraft, the wood is made of Burmese gold camphor, with black lambskin seats, and the cabin style is light gray, with a dark carpet.
A lounge with small beds, the bar in the mini bar has been removed, and a total of twelve seats will be placed, which will be enough most of the time.
After signing the contract, he wrote a check in the denomination of $6 million as a deposit, and the order was finalized.
I was not particularly satisfied with the internal space of the plane, but at present, it was enough, 28.7 million US dollars, and I could only buy a small space of 30 square meters, which made Su Mu feel funny, and suddenly found that the most expensive house was in the sky.
It is said that the toad who doesn't want to eat the swan is not a good toad, and when he got off the plane at JFK Airport in New York, he looked at this Gulfstream IV again, thinking that when he became richer, he must change to a large plane like 747 and 767 as his private jet.
There is no way, normal things, you can buy them if you want to, you don't need to save money like ordinary people at all, you only make money but you don't want to buy things, how uncomfortable it is, Su Mu is comforting himself that he must work harder to manage these companies well.
Out of the airport, the car that had been booked by phone was already waiting.
Usually Su Mu is rarely paid attention to, but now when he goes out with bodyguards and assistant Allen, it is difficult not to attract the attention of others, and those who bring a large group of bodyguards in the United States are either politicians or rich people, and some pedestrians directly write envy on their faces.
Take the car to Manhattan Island, it is already night, see Manhattan lights from afar, now more than half of the world's high-rise buildings are concentrated in Manhattan, the scene is extremely spectacular, in the world's five major cities, New York ranks first deservedly, in the past, I thought of New York to feel rich, at this moment Su Mu is also a rich man, the mentality has long changed.
After settling with the Empire State Building Corporation, Su Mu became the largest shareholder of the Empire State Building Corporation, and the other party ceded his economic interests in exchange for only half of the decision-making power in his shares.
In other words, he could not participate in the management of the company according to 43% of the decision-making power, but 215%, and the original group of major shareholders had already suffered heavy losses, and it was impossible to hand over the actual control of the company to him, because Su Mu did not intend to participate too much in the specific management of the Empire State Building United Company, so he accepted this agreement.
I stayed in the hotel run by the United Company tonight, and I have been to New York many times, and I am not even in the mood to go out for a walk, so I go directly to the top suite to take a bath and sleep......
Early the next morning.
Su Mu was enjoying breakfast alone in the living room when he was approached by Mr. Dary Morkin, chairman of the board of directors of the United Company.
Su Mu was stunned when he saw him, and originally thought that the other party would be angry and annoyed...... In fact, it is true, Su Mu forcibly took a large amount of money from their pockets, and it is strange that he is not angry, but Mr. Morkin's expression is well controlled, and he does not show it in person, but he does not give the new major shareholder a good look.
As the victor, Su Mu did not get carried away to rub salt on Mokin's wounds, deliberately ignoring the unpleasant experiences of both sides, and asked with a smile: "Good morning, have you had breakfast, sir?"
At the end of last year, when Su Mu just bought the Empire State Building from Prudential Insurance Company, there were still people who privately said how stupid he was, but now it seems that the executives of the Empire State Building Corporation, including Mr. Dary Morkin, almost lost their entire family in a lawsuit.
As a result, Su Mu became the largest shareholder of the Empire State Building Corporation, and it was true that he lost part of the ownership of the Empire State Building building and real estate, but he got some of the rental income and management rights as he wished, and successfully increased the annual income from more than two million dollars to about six million dollars.
Mr. Morkin nodded, indicating that he had eaten, and immediately after sitting down, he asked, "When will your fifteen million dollars of Empire State Building renovation cost be handed over to the company?"
Also, we're going to have a board meeting in two days, and you can also attend to negotiate a $60 million loan from company shares for real estate development. In addition, it is to strive to take over the management of several buildings in Rockefeller Center from my hands, and it will be a considerable income in the future, and now you are also a shareholder of the company, so you cannot stay out of it. ”
Su Mu wiped the corners of his mouth, dropped the napkin and replied: "The funds can be in place at any time, as for the loan, I agreed, and I may not have time to be there at that time." Having recently researched our real estate project in Greenwich Village, Downtown certainly doesn't sell as well as Midtown and Uptown, and if you had chosen to buy land on the Upper East Side, it wouldn't have sold so badly. ”
This is a project led by Mr. Morkin, and when he heard Su Mu denigrating it, Morkin's expression became even more stinky, and he told: "We have invested more than $30 million, and we can't just give up, and after this experience, I will never start a real estate project in that area next time." ”
"Those who want to buy can't afford it, those who have money don't want to buy it, eleven apartments, two hundred and forty-two houses, and sixteen villas, with the population of New York, it's easy to digest.
In the afternoon I will take a look, if I can think of a way to sell them, I will call you to let you know, if it doesn't work, I will ask a professional real estate agent to help, maybe selling this project is also the right choice, we are not a professional real estate developer after all. ”
In case nothing can be done, the gecko can only be sold off its tail, and the price will be lowered slightly, and someone will always be found to take over, as a famous art village in Manhattan, the neighborhood of Greenwich has a large population, and the Empire State Building United Company is not doing well, and most of those developers have a way.
Now the interests of the Empire State Building United Company are also the interests of Su Mu, before Mokin and others were not satisfied with the status quo, and wanted to enter the field of real estate development, which proved to be much more difficult than they imagined, the house was difficult to sell, and the funds were already tight, barely maintained.
This settlement, not without the reason for Sumu's funds, the company faced a lawsuit, they could not use the Empire State Building United Company share loan, so they pinched their noses and agreed to the settlement.
Being able to manage a building well doesn't mean you can be a good developer, and when Su Mu finished speaking, Mr. Morkin stood up and was about to leave, so he came over to inform him of a few things, and he didn't plan to sit down and talk about it.
said to Su Mu: "If you can really help to do that real estate project well, I think the other shareholders of the company should write off the previous unpleasant experience, I still have some things, we will talk about it next time, remember to send the money, as for whether to participate in the board meeting or not, it's up to you." ”
It doesn't matter how shrug his shoulders, Su Mu wants to say that he doesn't care at all what the other shareholders think of him, and whether he will keep the shares of the Empire State Building United Company is not certain, and he just asked Mr. Senna yesterday to help him find a suitable buyer, and in his opinion, the company's rate of return is still slightly lower.
After a brief meeting with Mr. Morkin, Su Mu also went downstairs and went out, taking a car to Wall Street, and hated the order of the morning rush hour traffic in New York......
