According to the temperament of the Americans, after negotiating everything, the tension was stopped, a few bottles of champagne were opened, and suddenly the enemy just now became a friend, everyone drank a few glasses together, celebrated the success of the cooperation, and then dispersed on their own without incident, and stayed to continue the consultation.

Hawke stayed, and he gave a brief account of the company's operations, the current task is to review new products, and the United States also has a history of large-scale agriculture and recklessness, and later the government has attracted the attention of the government because of the abuse of chemical fertilizers that pollute water resources. Therefore, if the new fertilizer wants to go to the market, it still needs a lot of testing.

"Mr. An, our company has cooperated with government departments many times in this regard, and we are proficient in submitting it for review, and it is expected that we will be able to bring the product to the market in about half a year. At the same time, I considered asking the company to apply for a bank loan and use this time to promote the new technology to customers in the western region. ”

Listening to the CEO's development plan, it is basically steady and steady, and it may be a little lacking in enthusiasm, but for companies that lack funds, the method is the safest. An Feng expressed his trust: "You are responsible for the specific work, I don't care what the process is, I just want to see profits." ”

Bray was confident: "It will please you, sir." ”

"I hope so." An Feng said. If he doesn't do well, as the boss, he will hold a shareholders' meeting to fire him as CEO and replace him with a more capable one.

But An Feng didn't like trouble, so he made the only arrangement.

"John, you've done a great job!" An Feng leaned back in a comfortable swivel chair, and across from him sat his assistant, John Adams.

This is the chairman's office.

The company's office building is not big, and An Feng will hardly come to work, but the company still arranged an office for him according to the regulations, about 30 square meters, with a luxury desk and a set of leather sofas. Behind the desk stands a black wood-grain bookcase, all of which are books related to economic management. I leaned back on the chair without any trouble: XXX, you won't have to go to work tomorrow. It's really a bit of a big leader.

"That's what I'm good at." John is now completely relieved, the investment negotiations went smoothly, and he worked overtime overnight.

An Feng was very satisfied with his caution: "Considering that you also serve as my financial advisor, accountant, assistant, etc., your professional quality is also good." In this way, I will give you an annual salary of 120,000 yuan, and your duty is to perform the work for me, supervise the company's finances, and provide investment planning. How is it? ”

John nodded happily: "I would gladly accept this job." ”

An Feng knew that he would not refuse, because he had learned that in this area of California, the annual salary of a financial consultant is about 60,000 US dollars, and the income of other professions such as accounting and investment management is also about the same. According to a U.S. polling firm, a white family of four can earn no less than $70,000 a year if they want to live a more comfortable middle-class life, and Spanish-speaking South American immigrants can earn $50,000 a year.

The boss offered a salary of almost twice as much, much to John's flattery. He graduated from a prestigious university, worked in the company for several years, and earned a considerable income, but the sluggish economy has led to huge employment pressure, and the company is laying off employees and reducing salaries, but housing prices and prices are rising.

He was also unemployed in this wave, and his wife and children needed to be supported, and the pressure was all borne by him alone. As a talent in the field, it is not difficult to find a job of forty or fifty thousand, but people always have to go up, right? He gave the information to the professional league with the idea of giving it a try, conducted a special assessment, and paid the membership fee, but there was no good news for several weeks, and just when he was becoming more and more disappointed, An Feng found him.

Seeing the contract drawn up in his hand, he had the excitement of keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon, the salary was higher than before, the work pressure was less than before, the boss was a very good person, there was no need to say it explicitly, he knew that Anfeng needed a subordinate who was familiar with financial management and could supervise the company.

Although An Feng didn't point it out, John knew that he couldn't let Bree Hawk monopolize the company like he had done before. The big boss doesn't interfere, but he always has a henchman to keep an eye on, and once there is a decision-making mistake or financial problems, John, as an expert, is naturally not a vegetarian.

With just a few glances and a sentence or two, both sides know that the other understands.

His subordinates are smart, and An Feng is naturally happy.

……

After living in Los Angeles for a few days, An Feng accompanied Jenny to travel all over the streets, Jenny saw that he was worried about the things at home, and he didn't want to make it difficult for his boyfriend because of himself, so he proposed to pack his luggage and go back to live with him for a while, as a vacation. The tired An Feng naturally raised his hands in agreement.

On their return trip, they were on a civil aviation flight. An Feng always thought that the only way to take such a short route was to take a car, but he was wrong. From Los Angeles to San Luis Obispo, a straight-line distance of 260 kilometers, a three-hour drive, but there are still flights, or ten times a day.

It is a small business jet produced in Brazil that can accommodate up to 30 passengers and is sometimes used as a sightseeing aircraft. After boarding, An Feng bored looking at the airport distribution map in California, American Airlines has developed routes, and there are airports in larger areas, even Paso Robble, a small city with a population of 30,000 or 40,000, has an airport.

An Feng sighed with emotion: "No wonder you all say that taking a train is more expensive than taking a plane!" ”

Jenny rested her head on his shoulder, a position she enjoyed, perhaps feeling secure. After listening to what An Feng said, she explained: "Almost all trains in the United States are used to transport goods, but whenever you go far away, you will choose a plane, and occasionally you can buy a dollar ticket." ”

"Sounds unbelievable." An Feng had heard of this kind of thing in China before, and his first reaction at that time was: Are you kidding me?

"I promise it's true." Jenny looked up at him, "I've taken it before, and if the flight occupancy rate doesn't reach 60%, the airline will sell a dollar ticket to save the capital." ”

An Feng kissed her forehead and said with a smile, "I believe in you." It's just that I'm wondering when my home country will open up to this kind of policy. ”

"China? What is it like? Jenny asked him.

"What do you think it looks like?" An Feng asked rhetorically.

Jenny sat up straight and said with great interest: "In the past, many of my classmates and I thought of China as a very backward country, often starving to death, being interviewed by TV stations and swearing allegiance to the party, wearing the same clothes, doing anything would be monitored by the police, and ML would break the law before marriage. But since the number of Chinese who have come to the United States to travel has increased, we feel that they are a group of very rich and brand-name people, and we buy four or five French-made brand-name bags, and three Rolex of more than 10,000. We wondered, what is China really like? ”

He explained with a smile: "It's not as exaggerated as you think, but it's not as rich as you think, the big cities are similar to yours, prosperous and congested, and the rural conditions are not as good as yours, relatively backward, in terms of transportation system, the eastern coastal areas are more developed." ”

Jenny asked, "So we had a big misunderstanding?" ”

"The misunderstanding is for sure! For example, before I came here, I and many people thought that the United States was a developed and beautiful country, but after actually experiencing it, I found that it also has shortcomings: except for some metropolises, other places are similar to China, and some cities are still old. The highways are well developed, but many of your highways are just ordinary four-lane roads, and the roads in New York are just as tinkered and dirty as they exist in the black populations. ”

Jenny laughed, "You've thought too well of this place. ”

An Feng nodded: "Some people say that the United States has the best welfare, but I found that there are beggars, in fact, neighboring Canada has better welfare than the United States, and Switzerland's welfare is the top; Some people say that there is a house that can be owned permanently, but I don't know that Ludao needs to pay a lot of property taxes, management fees and other items every year, as soon as the economic crisis comes, many people can't afford to pay maintenance fees so they have to sell the house to live cheaper; Some people say that a house for one dollar is sold, but it is actually located in a slum, and you have to worry about gunfire during the day, and the house is only a shell, and you have to pay at least $100,000 to renovate if you want to live in it. ”

"So those news and newspapers lied to us?"

"I never believed in CNN, BBC, CCXX, I watched those broadcasts as series. Many of us are looking forward to the finale of a program that has been broadcast for decades and N seasons. ”

"What is it?" Jenny asked.

An Feng hugged her with a smile: "Can you code my face first?" ”

……

In the end, Jenny still didn't get an answer.

But all she cares about is the warmth and flirting with her boyfriend.

Returning to the small town of Paso Robola and breathing in the fresh air, Anfeng felt at ease.

Although life in the metropolis is exciting, it is like a delicacy, once in a while to taste and evocative, and every day you will get tired of eating it. He is a little lazy in his bones, he likes to sleep on a recliner, looking at the blue sky in a daze, or occasionally riding a horse, teasing the dog, only what he likes, he will be motivated. Let him go shopping, go to parties, once or twice is fine, but if he has too many times, he will be annoyed.

He knew that he had great wealth in his hands, big enough to change the world, but the problem was that he lacked motivation and ambition. Otherwise, he would not have done a position for three years at the beginning, and if he was someone else, I am afraid that he would have found another job, and he would still honestly receive that salary.

That is, the exchange with other rich people at the auction made him feel that he should pursue a little big life, with luxury sports cars and yachts and airplanes.

Perhaps, his attitude is the real realm. You've made enough money, you have everything you should have, so what's next? Isn't it just a leisurely afternoon, coming to the beach and lying in the sun?
