Chapter 8 The problem is not big, but the scene is small
The biggest prize in the history of the U.S. lottery was on October 24, 2018, when the official website of "MEGA" showed that a player from Cleveland, Ohio, won all six numbers. The winning ticket was purchased at a 7-Eleven convenience store and will receive a $1.6 billion prize for one person.
For the $1.6 billion fortune, Americans can be said to be crazy, some netizens said on Twitter that the long queue to buy a trillion is more spectacular than the Thanksgiving auction, and even Mayweather, a boxing champion who has always liked to show off his wealth online and is worth more than $1 billion, was photographed buying a $2,000 lottery ticket at a gas station in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
Wei Kun went out of the school gate, found a place with few people to open the transnational express delivery, a thick stack of all kinds of supporting documents, from the scanned copy of the stub of the winning lottery ticket to the original newspaper of the local media vying to report on the matter, the newspaper is a little yellowed, it looks full of history.
The newspaper reported that the name of the winning lottery player was Fang-Wei, with his English level less than level 4, Wei Kun probably understood this report, which roughly means that in 1978, a lucky local person named Fang-Wei won more than 500 million US dollars in the lottery, and he did not choose to take all the prizes at once, because if he chose to take the prize at one time, he needed to deduct nearly 45% After receiving all kinds of taxes, it will be less than 300 million, and the other way is to give it in 30 years, so that the total amount is still 500 million US dollars.
In addition, there are various supporting materials provided by the will and the trust institution entrusted by Fang-Wei before his death.
Wei Kun is two o'clock in the afternoon to take the bus to a branch of the Agricultural Bank of China, this time in the afternoon is the time when the bank handles the largest number of business people, the decoration is very spectacular in the lobby, the seats have all been filled, when Wei Kun is still secretly sighing to the wrong time period, the security guard at the door saw Wei Kun ushered in.
"What business do you handle?" asked the security guard when he came to the number machine.
When he learned that Wei Kun was here to explain the unknown source of the huge amount of funds, the security guard did not take the number, and led Wei Kun directly to the VIP room on the side, where there is a commissioner who specializes in serving VIP customers.
As one of the five major banks, the Agricultural Bank of China, although the figure will not be too low, but each branch will have a different amount of savings and lending business every year, each branch must complete the goals set in the previous year, such as Wei Kun is the most popular with the branch president, even if there is a huge amount of suspicion of unknown sources of funds, but before everything is investigated clearly, it is regarded as a big customer of the bank.
"What drink do you need, sir?"
"Is there any happy water in the fat house?"
"Huh?" a question mark appeared on the girl in front of her.
Faced with the girl's incomprehension and doubts, Wei Kun didn't explain and said again, "Just boiled water." ”
"Okay, wait a minute. ”
After waiting in the VIP room for about less than two minutes, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked in, which made Wei Kun, who fantasized about having a beautiful commissioner to serve him one-on-one, a little disappointed, but it was not a big problem.
"You're Mr. Wei, aren't you?" the man shook Wei Kun's hand cordially and sat down across from him.
"Yes, I am. ”
The middle-aged man directly said his intention, in fact, it was similar to what Wei Kun thought, his account suddenly had more than three million funds flowing in, although this did not startle the bank, but it triggered the warning line set by the central bank that the source of a large amount of funds was unknown, and this time he was called over to understand the situation.
Wei Kun handed over the materials he had prepared, and these materials were spread out on the table to give people a strong visual impact, especially since they were all kinds of English proof materials, and it was really a headache to have no foundation.
The proof materials were handed over, Wei Kun was much more relaxed here, drinking tea, and then he had time to look around the VIP room, Wei Kun didn't understand the style of decoration, but it looked quite stylish, Chinese decoration style, all kinds of solid wood furniture, and there was a bookshelf on one side of the wall, which was more than three meters high, directly to the ceiling.
Different from Wei Kun's leisurely at this time, the commissioner in charge of him began to be busy checking all kinds of information at this time, because it involves foreign trust institutions, and it is a lot of trouble to verify it, but fortunately, the trust agency will note the contact information of the institution on the certification materials provided, which saves a lot of trouble, but it also needs to verify the qualifications of the trust institution on the Internet.
"Mr. Wei, you've been waiting for a long time. ”
"It's fine. Hearing the commissioner's words, Wei Kun shook his head and said, Everything else is fine, but I drank a little too much tea and wanted to go to the toilet.
"We've checked the source of your funds, and there's no problem with that. Do you have any plans for this fund? Whether you want to save for the short term or for the long term, we have different financial management plans in ABC, and professional financial managers will take care of them for you. ”
"In the short term, I will use this fund for other purposes in the future, but the follow-up funds will flow in frequently, and your bank will not have trouble in this regard, right?"
Although I am worried about whether the bank will be in trouble, in fact, what I am really afraid of is that I am in trouble, after all, the follow-up capital inflow is frequent, and it is a bad thing to just run back and forth to the bank, after all, no one has so much time to deal with the bank every day.
"Mr. Wei, you don't have to worry about this at all. The one-on-one account manager patted his chest and assured Wei Kun.
If there is really such a large cash inflow of customers, the bank is too late to be happy, how can it be possible to rush out, these five major banks are also facing the pressure brought by other banks at all times, especially in the competition for VIP customers, each bank has different benefits and services for VIP customers, a few days ago there was a funny picture on the Internet, a bank hall with a billboard, which reads "VIP customers of other banks enjoy the same service in our bank".
"Then I'm relieved. ”
As for the requirements of the central bank, the verification of the requirements of the head office of the Agricultural Bank of China for the sub-branch, self-inspection report, information registration or something, this is not something Wei Kun himself needs to worry about.
When Wei Kun walked out of the door of the Agricultural Bank of China, he was already a VIP customer of the Agricultural Bank of China, in addition to enjoying various discounts for cross-local deposits and withdrawals, there were also a series of benefits such as expert health consultation, VIP appointment accompaniment, roadside assistance, airport VIP, superior finance and so on.
The account manager personally delivered Wei Kun to the door of the bank, and the special car sent by the bank was already waiting at the door.
"Mr. Wei, I wish you a happy life!"
When I got into the bus, the driver in the front seat asked, "Am I going to send you back to school directly?"
"Wait when you pass by the supermarket, I'll go buy a box of Laotan sauerkraut noodles. ”
“???”
