Chapter 686: Acting Like a Rich Man
After Guo Jijie left, Wang Haoan looked at the time, grabbed his mobile phone, and made a transatlantic call.
"Dumas, last time you told me, which yacht company has in stock?"
Dumas had just finished taking a shower and was about to warm up with his wife when he was interrupted by a phone call. But he can't say anything yet, who let this be the boss's phone?
The professional attitude gave him the perfect response, he didn't need to look through the information, he immediately recalled: "Boss, it's Riva, the top yacht brand in Italy, and the top in the world." ”
In fact, the world's top yacht brands are basically in Europe, the United States can only be regarded as second-rate, and Asia is third-rate.
Yachts, like cars, are divided into many grades, some are very cheap and some are extremely expensive.
"Boss, are you going to buy one? Wait a minute, I'll make a phone call and ask if it's sold. If it sells, I'll help you reach out to a few other top brands and ask if it's in stock. ”
In fact, there are not many yachts in stock, because this is a high-priced luxury, if it is produced and sold, soaked in the sea, it will be depreciated, so most of them are ordered.
Wang Haoan was very satisfied with Dumas's attitude, hung up the phone, and lit a cigar. Less than ten minutes later, the phone rang again.
"Boss, Reva's top yacht has not been sold yet, I talked to the other party, and I am sure that the price will be below $40 million, because the person who originally ordered it paid a deposit of $12 million, and it went bankrupt, so in fact the yacht should be sold for more than $50 million. ”
"But now the global economy is on a downward trend, so there are not many people who are willing to spend so much money to buy a yacht, and the price has not been negotiated, otherwise it would not have been sold for several months. ”
"Okay, then you go talk, let's talk, give me a message, I can pay if there is no problem at a glance." ”
"Boss rest assured, I will go to Italy tomorrow to see the spot, set off tonight, and I will give the boss a satisfactory answer within three days." ”
Dumas's wife made an extremely disappointed expression, you answered the phone, leave me alone, and leave soon?
……
Wang Haoan suddenly found that it seemed that he had been too careful all along. Why should he be so frugal, buying a luxury yacht is nothing to him at all.
Although he was saddled with a loan of seven or eight hundred million dollars, he still had stocks worth more than a billion dollars, and businesses worth more than 1.5 billion dollars, and the business was in good condition and had plenty of cash, so there was no need to be reluctant to spend it.
This is the influence of his consumption concept in his previous life, in his previous life, he was also considered to be a small net worth, tens of millions of assets, and he could live a very nourishing life in China.
But some high-end luxury goods have nothing to do with him. It's not that he hasn't taken a yacht to the sea, but he rents it, because he usually doesn't need it, and he thinks that those who buy yachts and throw them at sea are rich to burn, and those who don't travel much still buy private jets, and those who park ten or eight luxury cars in the garage are also deseer.
After looking at Guo Jijie's consumption concept, he understood what those people thought. On the one hand, they really have so much money, so they naturally want to enjoy more, and money is not a problem for them to consider.
In addition, the purchase of these luxury goods can also avoid taxes. The company made a profit of $50 million this year, so it had to pay a large amount of taxes. But if the 50 million is purchased for the top yacht, the company's book profit is zero, how much money will be saved in taxes alone, and the yacht can be sold for cash in the future, and the value retention rate of this large item is still very high.
Guo Jijie always said that he didn't know how to enjoy, but now that I think about it, it's really true. Even if he enjoyed it, it seemed that the price he paid was not as big as he imagined.
Instead of handing over a large amount of money to the American government to collect taxes, it is better to buy some luxury goods for yourself. Although it is said that the docking and maintenance of the yacht are expensive, but the money does not need to be taken into account.
Just like in the previous life, Ma Yun sold the company's shares, and everyone was curious, why, the stock is still rising. But the answer given by Ma Yun is also interesting, and I want to improve my life.
To put it bluntly, Ma Yun's assets are all stocks, and there is very little cash. What luxury goods you want to buy, it's simply not enough. Although in the eyes of many people, having 100 million is enough to be chic for a lifetime, but compared with the enjoyment of the top rich, the gap is still very large.
What's more, Wang Haoan doesn't need to sell many stocks, and he also has a plan to adjust his investment in the United States at the end of this year.
For example, Microsoft's stock price peaked this year and then went downhill. And some emerging technology companies, which are in the financing stage, can just adjust it.
Some of the big bulls in China in the future will also start to set up companies and invest in the Internet industry in the past two years, and this opportunity cannot be missed.
Wang Haoan does not seek control, as long as he participates in shares, it is enough. To put it bluntly, he doesn't know much about the Internet industry, he only knows a surface, the company's operation, and he doesn't plan to interfere, develop step by step, and occasionally give the other party a wake-up call, he will definitely be able to make hundreds of times more profits in the future.
After thinking about it, Wang Haoan called Zhang Zikang again: "Zikang, are you in Bingcheng?"
"Here, chairman, have you returned to Bingcheng? Isn't my sister-in-law just born? Zhang Zikang no longer called Brother An Zi, because of this title, he was reprimanded several times by his family.
Usually you can shout like this, cordial, but during working hours, you must call the position.
"You go to the Ice Flying Factory, order the best helicopter, and put it in the name of the airline. Tell them that this is what I want, and I hope to get it as soon as possible, and if it is too slow, I will go abroad and order it. ”
"Okay, I'll go. Is there anything else?"
"I heard that Bingfei Factory has made another breakthrough in automobile manufacturing?" Wang Haoan asked.
"This one, it's all blown out. I heard that it does not have the ability to mass produce at all, there are many equipment here, it is only in the theoretical stage, if it is really produced, the same performance, it is much more expensive than imported from abroad. ”
It is more expensive than an imported product with the same performance, but the price of an imported car has doubled due to tax issues. This also proves how big the gap between Bingfei Factory and foreign car companies in the technology of high-end cars.
"Okay, then I don't need to ask, I'll order two cars from abroad. Wang Haoan didn't say that he must spend more money to support domestic products.
Besides, if you order a foreign one, you will also pay a lot of taxes to the state. This time, he wants to live his life in an all-round way...... Look like a rich man.
