"Do you want to move the company to New York?

I'm very comfortable here, I just handed over the rent to the landlord, and most of the Penguin's employees live nearby, who would want to go to New York, not even the Empire State Building!"

Blake's voice sounded lazy, as if he had just woken up.

After Penguin was on the right track, she didn't have much to deal with, and she often found time to be lazy, and even put a bed in the office.

"The factory and the supplier are in Silicon Valley, who said that you are going to move here, I just have the idea of buying it, about 35 million to 40 million dollars, as if it was an advertisement for our company, and the fat penguin logo was hung on the outer wall!" Su Mu ignored the black security guard and said while standing on the side of the viewing platform.

Blake told him: "It's a great idea, and if the price is right, I suggest you buy it, anyway, you have the money now, you can buy whatever you want, and you don't need to ask us poor people what they think when you make a decision." You should ask Senna, who specializes in acting as a middleman, and it might be slightly cheaper to have his help. ”

"Did I provoke you again, why is the tone of my voice so strange?"

"What do you think? When was the last time I went back to the company, I heard James say that you were coming back, and I had already bought a ticket to Paris for a few days of vacation, but now it's all invalid!"

"Okay, okay, I'll ask Senna's opinion, and I'll definitely give you a long vacation when I get back......"

Hurriedly hanging up the phone before Blake gets angry, Su Mu thinks that it may be because she hasn't been in love for a long time, which has caused her to become more and more grumpy recently.

Silicon Valley has a great startup atmosphere, and Su Mu doesn't plan to move tech companies to New York, and the branch office is possible, but the headquarters certainly not.

In recent years, many cities in the Silicon Valley area have attracted enterprises to settle in with low land prices, which is relatively cost-effective, and I think it is really worth considering.

Mr. Senna made money by investing in Qugou Supermarket, and his job was not put down, and he still dealt with various commercial mergers and acquisitions and restructuring businesses.

The last time we met was in October this year, Senna suggested that Su Mu list Qugou Supermarket as a whole, and Li Zhekai, who had graduated from Stanford University and returned to Xiangjiang to help his father take care of his business, also suggested going public for financing.

The supermarket industry is highly competitive, and the scale of funds is not enough to build and improve logistics channels.

Then I made a phone call and learned that Mr. Senna was in Manhattan and had agreed to meet at a café not far from the Empire State Building.

More than half an hour later, Su Mu saw him emerge from a cool-looking Aston Martin sports car through the window pane.

Middle-aged businessmen are fond of Aston Martin, and some have called the car company's products "suit thugs".

Mr. Senna was wearing a suit today, and his personality was strong enough, so he ordered a cup of espresso and sat opposite Su Mu, unbuttoned the two buttons, and raised Erlang's legs and asked Su Mu:

"Why did you think of buying the Empire State Building, it is outdated, the glory only belonged to forty years ago, I just heard yesterday that you made a lot of money, you can completely pay for it to rebuild a more magnificent building than it.

I have time today, I can take you to a real estate developer to buy land, there is a guy named Donald who has a lot of land in his hands, and there is something wrong with his business, and he lacks working capital. ”

Never beating around the bush, Senna often puts the phrase "time is money" on his lips.

Su Mu sighed deeply: "I have to think about buying the Empire State Building for a long time, the project you know can indeed help me make money, but it will take a long time, maybe I will have to lose money in ten years, I don't have enough funds in my hand, not to mention how can the newly built building be famous for the Empire State Building." If I buy it, I can tell people that the Empire State Building is mine, and even King Kong used to stand on this building and fight planes, which is cool, isn't it?"

“...... You know it's a movie, right?"

"Of course, everybody knows about the Empire State Building, and I need that fame, mainly because it's cheap, and the American spiritual symbol is worth more than $30 million, and the Statue of Liberty is probably cheaper. ”

Su Mu found a comfortable position to sit and continued: "In '85, New Jersey almost auctioned off the Statue of Liberty because it didn't have money to repair it, but it's a pity that I didn't have the money at that time. ”

His head couldn't keep up with Su Mu's thinking, and Mr. Senna smiled: "I read the report, some people in the White House say that selling the Statue of Liberty is selling the United States, and the Empire State Building is different, it is just a very famous building." If you make up your mind to buy it, I promise to negotiate a suitable price for you and leave me a layer when the time comes. ”

"Huh, your company is a good fit on Wall Street, why did you move here?"

"Who said it was a company, I plan to decorate it into an apartment, and when I have time, I will call a group of models to come over and go on a date. ”

Mr. Senna took a sip of coffee, showed an expression of disgust, put down the cup and did not intend to drink it again, and said in his mouth: "I just divorced last month, my ex-wife thought differently from me, took half of my property and broke up peacefully, did nothing, but took me more than 70 million US dollars, you must definitely sign a prenuptial agreement before you get married in the future, and you can't make a mistake like mine again." ”

If a woman hears this, she will probably show a look of contempt, accompanied by the sentence: "Hehe, man ......"

Su Mu didn't express his opinion, half of the adult Americans have been divorced, and even Du Zhong's parents almost divorced, so it's normal, nodding: "When the time comes, I'll consider the prenuptial agreement, don't think about the apartment, the Empire State Building is originally an old building, I'm worried that it will collapse by you." ”

Instantly understanding the meaning of this sentence, Senna smiled happily.

"Lyon, Qugou shares are still with me, we have recently gone public, so poor that we are about to go bankrupt, unless we go to other countries to develop, it is difficult to compete with other supermarket chains, twenty times the profit has exceeded my expectations, now is a good time to go public, I can contact the investment bank for listing work. ”

The focus of development has shifted, Su Mu now only has the IT industry in mind, and when the Global Communication Network Alliance is officially put into use, it is expected that the IT industry will grow on a large scale.

Since the news of the imminent formation of this virtual alliance was released, the NASDAQ stock exchange has been in the green, and Microsoft's stock price has risen by as much as six percent!

The supermarket business can be said to be a success, it can also be said to be a failure, Su Mu has a good business mind, but he is not a super genius, and initially planned to become an industry giant like Wal-Mart, but in the past few years, he has watched the number of Wal-Mart supermarkets double and double again, becoming one of the world's top 500 in one fell swoop.

Looking at Qugou again, the number of stores is less than 100, and four supermarkets with poor performance have been closed, not that Qian Herberg is not capable enough, the competition is really too fierce, but one store after another has been opened, so Su Mu is not interested.

The last time he replied, he said that he was thinking about it for a while, and at this moment Su Mu gave a positive reply, and said to his partner, Mr. Senna: "Just do what you say, I will sell some of the fun purchase shares to withdraw funds, and then the focus of development will turn to Asia, where the market is very large."

I'm going back to Harvard tonight, and I can't help much, but I want to see them develop the program I've always dreamed of, lend me the car for a few days, and you'll be more than that. ”

"It's not for you, go to my garage and pick a better one for you, it's suitable for pickling girls!"

Knowing that the Fun Shopping Supermarket was about to go public, Mr. Senna immediately came to his senses and laughed and asked, "Do you really want to buy the Empire State Building?"

Su Mu looked up at the tall building again, and replied ruthlessly: "Yes, help me contact the other party when you have time, even if the price is too high, it's best to evaluate whether it is worth so much money." ”

"Leon, this is the Empire State Building, even if the building collapses, the fame alone is worth five million dollars, and the price must be more than three million dollars......"
