When Meng Qian was running around for business and business problems, Wang Manwen, as his assistant, also properly handled the matters of life for him. She first transferred the funds to his personal bank account on his behalf, as they were unable to open an account in the U.S. because the green card had not yet been processed.

But before that, Meng Qian had applied for an HSBC account, which could be transferred to a personal account through an offshore account to complete the transfer of funds overseas. The VIP service he spent money on before finally played its role, and the transfer will be processed quickly by a specific account manager.

Although it is not as convenient as applying for an account directly in the United States, they do not have a green card or a work visa, so they cannot apply for it, so they can only use this way of cross-border consumption. Fortunately, developed countries such as the United States and Europe do not have foreign exchange controls, and as long as it is not black money, the US dollar can go as it likes.

Next, her second step is to solve the housing problem. When she had free time in Meng Qian, she asked him for his opinion, and he wanted to be relatively clean and pleasant, and he couldn't be too far away from his place of work, within fifty kilometers. After considering it, she looked for several places.

"It's a real picture." Wang Manwen handed him the tablet.

Meng Qian looked at it, and she introduced on the side: "I have seen all the listings, and they are mainly divided according to two points: live temporarily for a period of time, and then carefully select them when you are free in the future; Pick the right one now and do it once and for all. You're looking at the first category, which is located just north of San Francisco......"

Wang Manwen was very well prepared, and the first type of property she collected averaged about $1 million, while satisfying a certain degree of pickiness. I have to say that real estate in the United States is more attentive, especially in the high-end field, each with its own characteristics and styles, which is worth learning in China.

Meng Qian browsed and saw that he had a fancy for a set of more than 1.5 million, which had three bedrooms, a garage that could accommodate two cars, and the greenery of the yard was very good, except that the living area was slightly smaller, and the others were similar to the villa he bought in Haishi. If you count the views, it's even better here.

Fully furnished, almost a bag to move in, but when he turned to the second category, he quickly dispelled this thought, how could there be no luxury pool? A yard big enough to hide and seek? There is also life when you climb high and look far away, and the sea view is in full view! It's a holiday principle!

This kind of people are often five or six million, and many are tens of millions, but I can't bear to like one! Isn't it for this kind of day that you worked hard to earn so much money? He has a lot of money recently, and he has 50 million just to enjoy, and he will open up new money-making industries in the future, and there is no pressure on consumption.

"I like this top-notch." Meng Qian abandoned the previous one.

"It's a good fit for you." Wang Manwen had expected that the money he listed as "pleasure funds" was all spent indiscriminately, and it was not happy if it was not spent.

Meng Qian has his reasons: "Coming here is to work while vacationing. Treat yourself? ”

She understood, "When are you free?" ”

Meng Qian flipped through the schedule: "I have to go and see the company's site selection tomorrow morning, if it goes well, I may be free in the afternoon." ”

"Okay." She made a note of, "What car do you like?" ”

"Take the style of the Americans, divided into types." Meng Qian said, "Living in this kind of place, an SUV and a sedan are standard, right? ”

"Another sports car, the icing on the cake." She understood.

"Yes." He liked the tacit understanding.

……

Ralph took Meng Qian to see the company's site selection in the morning.

The scale of the R&D and production areas of pharmaceutical companies is quite demanding, and if you choose to be in a skyscraper, it feels more like an administrative office. He prefers the company to occupy a building with a huge parking lot that can be divided into separate laboratories, combining administrative and research.

But halfway through the choice, he encountered a practical problem: a lack of foundation.

If a brand new enterprise is established, it will take a while to coordinate and operate, and slowly accumulate the foundation, which is really impatient for Meng Qian, who immediately wants to show his skills. It is better to use the old method to buy a company with a good infrastructure and then transform it.

So he communicated to Ralph: "Is there a form of this?" ”

Ralph thinks about it: "It works. However, when it comes to evaluating the value and content of the company, you need a professional, and it is recommended to turn to Onix for help. ”

Meng Qian is a shareholder of Onix Pharmaceutical, and resources cannot be wasted. He approached Tiger Stone and asked for a professional to help him set up his business.

After hearing this, Tiger said: "A new drug that is bound to be obtained?" If you can definitely skip R&D, focus on the clinical side first, and then add the rest. ”

"That's what I think, too." Meng Qian said that the new drugs have been clinically tested in China and have significant effects, and there is no need for deliberate research and development in the United States.

"I'll ask the person in charge of the pharmaceutical company to contact you and help you recommend professionals; On the clinical side, Onyx has partnerships with hospitals in many countries that can give you access to this channel. ”

"Thank you very much!" Meng Qian said sincerely, he solved the problem with a few words, especially in the clinical channel, it is difficult to establish a new company.

After it was done, he went to see the house in the afternoon.

It was Wang Manwen who was driving, and under the guidance of Wang Yang, she went to a car rental company to rent a Ford SUV, and finally stopped waiting for a rental. But Meng Qian misses the time when he took the cable car, the tram like a wooden house running on the tracks, and they still stepped outside for sightseeing.

Chatting all the way north, crossing the Golden Gate Bridge, cars are running on the mountainside road, and below the mountain are mansions and marinas, countless yachts are moored, and people playing and sunbathing on the sea abound. This scene is rare in China and belongs to the characteristics of developed countries.

Meng Qian liked: "This is called the life of a rich man." ”

The car circled across the bay and drove up to an island full of mansions.

She also said: "Bay Island is a well-known and wealthy area in the Bay Area, the island is surrounded by the sea on three sides, ensuring that it is clean and undisturbed, and it is not far from San Francisco. ”

Meng Qian looked at the lush green plants all the way, and the landscape was good.

Wang Manwen and the real estate agent met at the top of the mountain, and only one house was visited, which is located on the top of the mountain, about 100 meters above sea level, at the foot of the mountain is a blue and clean ocean, and can overlook the Golden Gate Bridge.

Not to mention that it has everything Meng Qian wants: a luxurious oversized swimming pool, a small pool with heating and massage functions; A spacious, unsheltered aerial platform facing the vast ocean; The house is decorated in a Mediterranean style with a sense of crossing into the Mediterranean in Europe.

The house is two stories high, with 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, and the usable area is about 8,000 square feet (743 square meters), but just like the American calculation style, its front and rear yards, garages, basements, etc. are not counted in the area, and it is at least 3,000 square meters, which is very spacious and domineering.

Meng Qian walked around and was impeccable.

Too much appetite for yourself! Comfortable and luxurious, every room and living room has its own characteristics, and it is full of enjoyment to live in turns; Outdoors there is its own pool, viewing platform, exquisite garden, surrounded by lush greenery and fresh air.

It is suitable for swimming in the sun in the afternoon, soaking in warm water and drinking beer to watch the sea, and when you are tired, you can hide under the shade of the trees, adjust the deck chair to the most comfortable angle, and listen to the waves and insects and birds...... This kind of enjoyment is probably rare in China.

Meng Qian had only one question: "How much?" ”

The agent smiled and said, "$13 million, one of the best locations in the Bay Area." ”

"Full payment?" Meng Qian used a few words to explain to the intermediary what is heroic, more than 10 million is not a matter, how can such a mansion be missed!
