Chapter 959: The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing (2)
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't care about the pain on his body that was still burning like a pinprick, so he grabbed Charlize Theron's shoulder and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"
Charlize Theron supported Cheng Xiaoyu's thighs with both hands, stood up hurriedly, and said with an uneasy face: "Mr. Cheng, I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, I was too careless just now......."
Cheng Xiaoyu also stood up from the sofa, took the tissue handed over by Yi Yunfei and said, "It's okay, you didn't mean it......"
Charlize Theron saw that Cheng Xiaoyu was wiping the coffee stains on his body, so he immediately picked up the napkin box from the table, took it out to help Cheng Xiaoyu wipe it, and said a little nervously: "Mr. Cheng, if you take it off, I'll take it and dry clean it for you......."
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and said, "No need, it's just a coat......"
"Then I'll pay you a new one....... Where did you buy this dress?" said Charlize Theron, with a sincere trepidation. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cheng Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "I really don't need it, it's okay....." The clothes were bought by Xu Qinning for him, they should be customized, it is estimated that a small lobby manager of a bank may not be able to buy half a year's salary, so there is really no need to embarrass others.
Charlize Theron heard Cheng Xiaoyu's somewhat flat tone, the disappointment in his eyes flashed, and he said with a respectful face: "You are really a gentleman......"
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I have always been a gentleman when it comes to beautiful ladies.......
At this time, the coffee on the clothes had been wiped off, and only a faint coffee-colored trace was still faintly visible, because there were also some coffee stains on the zipper of the pants, and Cheng Xiaoyu was embarrassed to wipe the paper in front of the two women, Charlize Theron waved his hands, his face was red, and he was a little overwhelmed, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing.
Cheng Xiaoyu said: "I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom......"
Charlize Theron immediately said, "Mr. Cheng, I'll take you to ........"
Cheng Xiaoyu said: "I'm sorry for you." ”
Charlize Sey hurriedly said, "I'm causing you trouble.....
On the way to the bathroom, Charlize Theron seized the opportunity to talk to Cheng Xiaoyu again, asking where Cheng Xiaoyu was from, whether he was traveling to Hollywood or doing something, etc., Cheng Xiaoyu just casually perfunctory.
Waiting for Cheng Xiaoyu to come out, Charlize Theron was still waiting at the door of the bathroom, and respectfully sent Cheng Xiaoyu to the VIP room, and said to Cheng Xiaoyu pitifully: "Don't blame her in front of the manager...... The word manager does not have much status in the United States, and the employees in the VIP room who received him just now are also called account managers, in fact, the position is not high, the manager Charlize Theron said should be the business manager with real power, their head ......
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, it's okay......"
Charlize Theron said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Cheng, I remind you that the fixed deposit of more than 100,000 US dollars in our bank can be negotiated with the bank at an interest rate, and you can ask for as much interest as possible to increase the interest rate, of course, you will have to pay part of the interest you get to the U.S. government as a tax ......."
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know about these situations, and thanked Charlize Theron very gentlemanly.
When Cheng Xiaoyu returned to the VIP room, a somewhat obese aunt-level woman was already standing inside, and when she saw Cheng Xiaoyu coming in, she said with a flattering face: "Mr. Cheng, I'm sorry, our staff is not well served, don't be surprised, our bank will compensate you for your loss, ....." and then said to Charlize Theron viciously: "What are you doing in a daze, quickly apologize to Cheng Xiaoyu solemnly, and clean up here......"
Cheng Xiaoyu thought that it would be a head if she was entangled like this, frowned and said: "She has apologized just now, and I have accepted the apology, and the compensation is not needed....." Then he took out the check book from his arms, signed a check for 100 million US dollars from Huaxia Commercial Bank, stamped his seal, and then said: "This is the 100 million US dollars I want to deposit into your bank, which can be deposited for a fixed period of time, and the interest rate is easy to say, but I have a request.......
The use of checks in the United States and Europe is a very common thing, checks are as popular as credit cards, almost Americans don't bring much cash when they go out, Cheng Xiaoyu once went to the supermarket and saw an old man buy a bottle of water, all of which were written checks to merchants, and writing blank checks in the United States is a very serious matter, if there is not enough cash on the account to pay, it is to be fined by the bank, and if the court finds it bad faith to issue bad checks, he will be arrested and sent to prison.
The obese business manager wondered if he had encountered some fraud, how could such a young rich man inexplicably run to save 100 million, and said with some suspicion: "Mr. Cheng, what do you ask for......" While speaking, he held the alarm in his pocket, ready to call the security guard at any time......
Cheng Xiaoyu casually put the check on the table and pressed it with one hand, and then said, "I want to see your vice president, Mr. James Walker......
The fat business manager raised a greasy smile and asked, "Can I ask, do you have anything to do with him?"
Cheng Xiaoyu glanced at the fat manager with suspicion in his eyes and said, "Of course, it's a bigger business than $100 million to talk to him about......."
The fat business manager let go of the hand holding the siren, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Of course it's no problem, Theron, you go and call President James now, and ask him to come down right now......"
Seeing that Charlize Theron immediately walked out of the VIP room, the fat business manager turned to Lisa and said, "Lisa, you open an account with Mr. Cheng first...... Mr. Cheng, just give your passport to Lisa, and I'll take you and Mr. Yi to the lounge next door to sit and wait for Vice President James to come down..... It's such a mess here......"
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded, handed the check to Lisa, and then said to the obese manager: "Save a current account first, and if you get along well with your vice president, you can transfer the term ......."
The fat manager hurriedly said: "No problem, no problem, Mr. Cheng, we will save it for you immediately, our 'Wells Fargo Hollywood Branch' has many big customers like you, big stars Emma Stone, Van Cage..... All have a lot of deposits with us...... In addition, we have many other good services here...... Safe deposit box rental, foreign currency exchange, international financial and insurance ......"
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't like this kind of sales service of Bank of America, and hurriedly interrupted the fat manager: "I have to wait for everything now, and I will talk about it when I see Mr. James......."
The fat business manager pushed open the door of the break room, pulled down the roller shutter and said, "Okay..... I'll have someone pour you something to drink..... Coffee or juice ......"
Cheng Xiaoyu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Whatever you want....."
Not long after the fat business manager walked out of the door of the break room, a panting James Walker was led by Charlize Theron to the break room.
Yi Yunfei stood up first and said with a smile: "Mr. James, we meet again.......
James Walker was obviously a little surprised, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yi Yunfei and said, "Mr. Yi, I didn't expect it to be you......."
Cheng Xiaoyu sat on the sofa and didn't move, Charlize Theron came over and introduced: "Vice President, this is here to see you, Mr. Cheng....." Cheng Xiaoyu stood up.
James Walker let go of Yi Yunfei's hand, held the hand of Cheng Xiaoyu, the legendary big financier, his expression was very enthusiastic, and he squeezed Cheng Xiaoyu's hand very hard and said, "Mr. Cheng, it's a pleasure to meet you......"
Cheng Xiaoyu also responded politely: "Mr. James, it's also a pleasure to meet you...."
James made a posture of please sit, waited for Cheng Xiaoyu and Yi Yunfei to sit down, and then said: "Mr. Cheng, it's an honor to serve a young man like you, I heard that you want to see me, I rushed over immediately, I was really scared when I came in just now, I didn't expect you to be so young and handsome, it's really inferior, I'm still struggling to find a job at my age, and I'm working hard for an internship opportunity......"
Cheng Xiaoyu knew that the Yankees had always been desperate to praise people, so he just smiled faintly and said, "You have won the prize." He didn't want to waste any more time, and said directly: "My friend Mr. Yi Yunfei has met with you before, and you have a general understanding of what is going on, so I will get straight to the point and say that our company wants to acquire some businesses in the 'digital field'....... Therefore, your continued lending to the 'digital sector' not only adds risk to your bank, but also casts a shadow on our cooperation with your bank......."
James Walker didn't expect this to happen, hesitated for a moment and said: "Although there are some problems in the operation of the 'digital field', to be honest, it is not very risky to lend to them, and they are old customers of our bank......."
Cheng Xiaoyu shook his head, took out a stack of photos of the huge animation base built by the "Digital Domain" in Florida from his jacket pocket, and handed it to James Walker.
Cheng Xiaoyu waited for James Walker to finish flipping through the photos and said, "Mr. James, the problem in the digital field is not serious, I believe you know better than me...... The reason why the digital field has been able to maintain good profitability in the past few years is mainly because it is focused enough to lead the industry in the special effects, but now the front line is so long, there are huge problems in operation, resulting in the inability to pay salaries....... Do you think there is no risk in such a company?Truth be told, the anime base in Florida is a bottomless pit.... Even if they can raise enough money to complete the construction, when will they start making a profit?...... Of course, it is not ruled out that they will turn around in the future, but is there a good chance that you will have a better partner in front of you, and it is 100% right to choose the friendship of our company, right?"
James Walker's own dream is to become a banker, and a deposit of 100 million dollars is of course important, but "Wells Fargo" and his reputation are even more important, so he thought for a while and said, "Sorry, Mr. Cheng..... A deposit of 100 million yuan is indeed very important to our bank, and you can get so much wealth at such a young age, and you are naturally not an ordinary person..... We at Phu Quoc are honored to serve such an outstanding person as you...... But we don't want to be a bank...... Especially the other party is a relatively high-quality enterprise......"
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Mr. James, is the brand value of special effects production like 'digital field' honest?"
James Walker said without humility or arrogance: "For now, the digital field as one of the four major special effects companies in Hollywood is still much more famous than your film company..... I know you have big ambitions and need to acquire the 'digital realm'..... I think our bank can provide you with the opportunity to buy shares, what do you think? Their company does need capital, even if it is an absolute controlling stake, it is not necessarily a difficult thing......"
Cheng Xiaoyu was a little troubled by James's lack of oil and salt, and said with a frown: "Our company is indeed not very well-known in the United States at present, but this has nothing to do with the fact that we need to acquire some businesses in the 'digital field' today, our purpose is not to control the 'digital field', we don't want to take on too much debt, that would be too costly for us, we just need his film special effects business and special effects studio in Canada...... So it doesn't make sense for us to buy their shares......"
James Walker clasped his hands together and frowned and said, "Mr. Cheng...... So do you think there is any other way for us to cooperate...... After all, we have already agreed to approve a loan to their company...... We can't just ruin a company with a great future......"
Seeing that James was still unmoved, Yi Yunfei interrupted James Walker and said: "Mr. James, first of all, don't underestimate our company, we have sold more than 200 million US dollars in a movie in Huaxia, and the movie we are currently cooperating with Universal will be released soon....... And you must know that Mr. Cheng who is sitting in front of you, you may not know much about 'Xichu', but you must know 'Whisper' and 'WeChat', and the chairman of the parent company of the two, 'Xiyu', is Mr. Cheng......."
Hearing this introduction, James looked at Cheng Xiaoyu and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Charlize Theron, who came in with coffee and snacks for the second time, once again spilled coffee on Cheng Xiaoyu's body, and once again fell into Cheng Xiaoyu's arms.
