Chapter 149: There's a topic

Zhang Dawei was in a very good mood, and the children were happily running on the lawn; Bai and Pooh were also together now, and they were having a lot of fun.

The laughter of the children naturally makes the parents very happy, and these angels are happy, and it is enough.

"David, how did you meet it?" Derek was curious and concerned, "Pooh is cute, but I want you to understand that it's not easy for you to take care of it." It may only need some milk powder now, but when it grows up, it needs enough food, which is a huge burden. ”

Zhang Dawei patted his stomach and said with a smile, "In the ranch, you never need to worry about the guys who can eat." I even think that if I want to live on the ranch, the first criterion is whether I can eat it. I don't worry about that, I can afford it. Although my ranch is not producing now, I will raise more cattle. And they don't necessarily eat a lot. ”

That's right, Derek really doesn't need to worry about Zhang Dawei's financial pressure.

Maybe Zhang Dawei's current total value is not as good as him, but Derek knows that Zhang Dawei is a super potential stock; just boxing, Zhang Dawei can have a good time, and Zhang Dawei's current appearance fee is increasing.

And Zhang Dawei's business is still quite a lot, and Bai is now 'out of the picture', that's because Zhang Dawei is lazy to take Bai to shoot advertisements. In fact, there are some advertisers who are very optimistic about Bai, but Bai doesn't seem to have much interest now, and there is not much financial burden on the family now, so Zhang Dawei took advantage of the situation to let Bai Xiying.

"Shiro can take care of Pooh, and Pooh seems to be smarter than I thought. Zhang Dawei touched his chin and said a little uncertainly, "I still don't know what that guy Bai thinks, but I have to admit that it can find those interesting and smart guys." Although Pooh is not as smart as White, Pooh seems to be smarter than Joe. ”

Envy, of course Derek and Gina envy.

If you give these spiritual guys an 'IQ ranking', Bai will naturally climb to the top easily without any pressure. Originally, Derek thought that Joe should be able to rank second, and Ugly and Lazy Sheep should be tied for third. As for the dwarf donkey raised at home, it should be at the bottom level.

But now I hear that Pooh is smarter than Joe, of course, I am very envious, but I think it is better not to compare with Bai, Bai is too smart, and comparing with Bai is an unfair treatment of other animals.

Zhang Dawei doesn't know how to deal with Pooh's stupid and cute guy now, and if he really doesn't worry, he must be too optimistic. But in the past few days, Zhang Dawei has slowly felt that this guy is likeable.

Maybe it's because the bear itself is cute, coupled with its lively and active nature, it's really a pistachio. And this guy's temperament seems to be a little soft and cute, this is a guy who is easy to bully, and his personality is too simple.

It likes to shrink its body into a ball, and likes to follow the baby or white like a fart. Just take it with you to play games, whether it's a toy or really playing games together, just take it with you anyway.

There's really nothing to pursue, that's Pooh. However, it is still necessary to continue to observe, and it is not yet absolutely understood, including the fear that the guy's personality will change when he grows up. After all, like Bai, there is basically no existence that hasn't grown much anymore, and that guy Bai is too ghostly, and he is very handy at pretending to be stupid and cute.

You must not look at white, that guy is just using the deceptive appearance of his size to eat and drink, pretending to be a friend, but the white in his bones is very powerful, he may just 'not want to grow up', pretending to be a dog all day long.

The adults were drinking and chatting, and there was no need for the Derek family to go back immediately, it was good to stay overnight at the ranch, and it wasn't that they couldn't live anyway, which was not a problem at all.

Naturally, there are a lot of topics, and the children naturally get together and happily play with Shiro and Pooh.

Melissa and Gina are also chatting speculatively now, Melissa is chatting about her music training school with great interest, and Gina is of course very concerned. She wasn't always a housewife, she didn't go to work until she had children. So I can still give Melissa some advice, and it seems that Melissa is quite useful.

There's no way, Melissa can be regarded as really stepping out of school and into society, even if she has some social experience, she is indeed not a rookie. But I have to admit that she is still relatively 'simple', so she is very willing to listen to some advice, some advice from those who have worked experience.

Gina, in particular, basically doesn't have too many reservations, and Melissa naturally cares more about these suggestions. Even if you don't have the same job, you can't copy the experience, but Melissa feels that she has learned something.

"David, you have to know that there are many types of yachts, and I recommend you to get a captain's license, which is very suitable for you. Derek was chatting with Zhang Dawei about the topics they cared about, and Derek had a lot of suggestions, "Of course, you don't have to get a captain's certificate. But I suggest that if you have enough time, you can do it. ”

Zhang Dawei wants to buy a yacht, so he naturally knows the type of yacht, and there are many yacht driver's licenses.

In the case of a single boat, what sailboats, full displacement, semi-displacement, the latter artificial power and so on. Even if it is a sailboat, what internal combustion engine power there is and no internal combustion engine power, this is still very complicated. Of course, the size, structure, use, etc. are different, and the price of these ships also spans a lot.

Zhang Dawei was listening carefully, and Chris suggested that Zhang Dawei get the sea boat license and the Neihu boat license.

"Dude, I know you're not good at studying, but it's not a hassle. You'll need to go to the website of the Ship Management Department to register, and then you can do it on your own or in a class. And I know you have the money, so you can do it more easily. Derek looked at Zhang Dawei and said a little jokingly, "But you may have a headache." ”

Because he thought about buying a boat, Zhang Dawei naturally cared about it.

Worry, there are too many topics, and there are many things to learn, such as the structure and type of boat, the rules of sailing, the regulations of the federal and state governments, or the meaning of navigation beacons, communications, weather forecasts, handling of dangerous situations, and environmental protection, as well as the rules of rafting, the rules of sailing and fishing, the rules of hunting, and so on.

"I think I might have a hard time getting it done, I'm really worried. Zhang Dawei smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "If you let me go to the mountains to run for a day or have been boxing, I won't be tired." But if I read a book, I will get tired immediately. I'm afraid to face the baby now, and I'm certainly not a good student. Hopefully my child isn't like me, or I'll have to spend a fortune to send her to college. ”

Derek looked at Zhang Dawei sympathetically and said with a smile, "I believe in sweetheart, she is very smart." However, if you can afford it, you can try to donate some money so that your sweetheart can get a college offer in the future. ”

Zhang Dawei nodded, of course he understands such things, and everyone knows these things in the United States.

There are many universities in the United States, but not everyone has the opportunity to get into college. Sometimes getting a college offer is not just based on grades, but also other criteria.

Normal admission naturally depends more on strength, but some rich and famous people enter some good universities, either because of donations from their parents, or because they have family roots, etc. These can lower the admission standards, and the threshold will be lower.

This is really not new in the United States, and high-quality students are naturally what everyone strives for, and high-quality students, in addition to good grades, also include family background. Many universities in the United States have a tradition of alumni donations, even a significant portion of university funding. Since the donation is made, it is natural to give some benefits to the donor, in addition to a good reputation, it is also to bring some benefits to the children.

It also includes some families in the United States, grandparents, fathers, and children, such a family will recognize a certain university. Alumni culture is also very popular in the United States, and the same university is also a good network resource in the society.

Don't be fair or unfair, pursue absolute fairness, that is, deceive yourself and others, and don't be so shameful, such things can be regarded as conventional things in the United States.

Just like Melissa, she just graduated and received a call from the University of San Diego about donations. Of course, this is arbitrary, and you can donate if you want.

But in the U.S., it's an unspoken rule to donate and admit students, and universities generally choose to package students who don't meet the admission requirements to avoid offending the public. They generally refer to the children of alumni as "legacy". Priority is given to the one with "inheritance" for the sake of alumni affection and praise for the family's "loyalty" to the school.

This kind of early admission is good for wealthy people, because it can allow children to get more high-quality educational resources. Moreover, donating in the United States is also a legal way to avoid taxes; Zhang Dawei thinks that such an investment can be made.

This is naturally because Zhang Dawei is now a rich man, getting richer and richer; it seems that he is now at the level of the middle class, but Zhang Dawei, who is full of potential, has no problem entering the wealthy class at all.

Men talk about a lot of topics, from cars to boats, talking about children's education, talking about some tax avoidance methods that everyone knows well, talking about some recent policies or some plans for their children's future, and so on.

Zhang Dawei and Derek are very interested in these topics, because they are both family-oriented men, and their careers are not bad, but what they care more about is naturally their family, which is the most important part of their lives.
