Chapter 107: The Supremacy of Capital
Erica Stone's offer was very much in line with his psychological price point, and after going back and discussing a few more details, the cooperation was a sure thing. After going abroad, the two sides will make a transaction, because what Meng Qian needs is US dollars, and if he trades in China, it will be difficult for him to bring this money out.
Plans to go abroad were accordingly advanced, and Mrs. Stone had come by private jet, and at her invitation, they could take a ride. Meng Qian's domestic career development is stable, and it is time to step into the world. After his parents and sister arrived in Haishi, they hurriedly explained some things and left.
The house and car keys are given to them, and the second elder will also be responsible for the house decoration and communication with the designer. As for the extraordinary-looking girl beside Meng Qian, Meng Qian smiled and vaguely said that he couldn't tell what their relationship was.
He admires Wang Manwen a lot, but he doesn't develop love. He knows that his mentality is unstable, and he wants to go crazy while he is young, easily make a promise, get along with her, and then can't help but attract bees and butterflies? That's not his style! He doesn't like to cheat, so he simply maintains the status quo.
Leaving aside the things that could not be sorted out, they set out on a journey.
Dad drove them to the airport, and Mom insisted on accompanying them, the purpose was nothing more than to target Wang Manwen. She didn't believe Meng Qian's nonsense female assistant, her family was full of her life, could these two people have no ghosts? Along the way, Wang Manwen coped with a little embarrassment.
"Mom, just rest for a while!" Meng Qian surrendered decisively, "It's not like this to check the household registration. Drink your saliva first and talk later. ”
"Auntie, there's water here." Wang Manwen handed her mineral water.
"It's still this kid sensible." Mom is very satisfied.
"Ahh Meng Qian grabbed his hair.
Father Meng smiled understandingly, and hurried to the airport, Meng Qian hurriedly said goodbye and ran away: "Trouble you, my mother likes to gossip." ”
"Understood." Wang Manwen smiled.
"They're over there." A sharp-eyed Meng Qian spotted Erica Stone and her entourage.
The two groups met and waited in the VIP lounge to eat some snacks prepared by the assistant, which are said to have been specially made by the hotel's chef to pass the time while the lady waits for the flight...... It's really a queen's treatment. After a while, everyone's exit formalities were properly handled.
Transfer to the airport shuttle bus, the private jet is a remote seat boarding, the model Gulfstream G550. Meng Qian has the dream of buying a plane, so he has learned that it has a maximum of 19 seats and a range of 12,000 kilometers, which is very convenient for intercontinental travel, and the plane is small and can stop at more airports.
At present, this G550 is more inclined to customize, it only has 12 seats, because of the installation of sofas and higher-end seats, the pursuit of entertainment, luxury, occupies a lot of space, but in terms of visual enjoyment, it has been raised to a higher level. Enter. After entering the stratosphere, the passenger experience is very comfortable.
On the plane, Meng Qian and Erica Stone chatted about investment and policy, and it was much more convenient for local Americans to solve their doubts than to investigate by herself, and she also gave advice after consideration: "Taking into account the pharmaceutical industry and scientific research, the most suitable place in the United States is in the San Francisco Bay Area." ”
"Bay Area?" Meng Qian still has some impressions of his last visit.
She said: "The Bay Area includes nine counties around San Francisco, cities such as San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, etc., many of the world's top universities, and Silicon Valley where technology companies gather; There are also a large number of pharmaceutical giants settled here, which are perfect for your requirements. ”
The Bay Area has great advantages, not to mention that the name of Silicon Valley alone is enough to make it world-famous. It has a talent environment that is rare in other regions, and at the same time, it is also very developed in biomedicine and finance, and its own climate and natural environment are good.
The Bay Area was the place where Meng Qian first set foot in the United States, and this trip was no different. He had a good impression of it, especially when he got off the plane, and was greeted by cool summers, clear blue skies and magnificent sea views. The scenery captured him, and it was, as the outside world said, a place to live.
Erica Stone said to him, "I'll take you to San Francisco first, and I'll arrange for a helper to help you with your work." My husband is still in the UK, and when he returns, he will come back to discuss investment cooperation with you. Is there anything else you need? ”
"Yes, thank you Madame for your help." Meng Qian said.
"It's a gesture." She smiled. After completing the immigration process, the vehicle that came to pick up and drop off also arrived, the Chevrolet Suburban, a large SUV often driven by American agents in the film, which can hold many people at a time, and the two cars will take them all and go to San Francisco together.
After arriving in downtown San Francisco, Meng Qian and Wang Manwen stayed at the hotel.
Erica Stone has her residence in the Bay Area, but she didn't have the opportunity to visit, and Meng Qian intends to get closer to the Stone family. In terms of details, although they are not as well-known as the old capitalists, they are easier to make friends.
However, the lady took good care of them, and the day after adjusting the jet lag, her specially appointed assistant arrived, a Chinese woman, twenty-six or seventeen years old, Chinese name Wang Yang, very lively and outgoing, driving them around to enjoy the Bay Area style.
There are exclusive tour guides to lead them to experience, which is very rewarding, and they have a deeper understanding of the environment of the Bay Area. Originally, Meng Qian still had plans to visit Boston, but now he has given up, according to the two items he wants to invest, the world can't find a more suitable place than here.
After interested in choosing the Bay Area, the local government was very enthusiastic.
According to the investment projects that Meng Qian will bring, it will be at least more than 4 billion US dollars in the next few years, and the economic benefits that can be generated will be hundreds of billions of US dollars, affecting tens of thousands of jobs. This is undoubtedly a beautiful achievement, and the local government and the state government take it seriously.
Patting big investors on the back knows no borders. Meng Qian met with the local government, the county government, and then the governor to discuss investment policy issues and tax incentives. They welcome the giants of the future and hope that Wells Fargo Power will settle in California.
Politicians are also very enthusiastic about Meng Qian's intention to invest in new drug research, regardless of whether it can succeed or not, his investment must be at the level of one billion, which is generally the standard for researching new drugs. But no one doubts that he can afford to make money, and he is also a billionaire with a net worth of tens of billions.
After dealing with politicians for several days on end, there is no doubt that the investment will be settled in the Bay Area. Correspondingly, California and local governments have also given a lot of convenience, including initial tax reductions and exemptions, preferential policies, and subsidies in the field of new energy industries.
When it comes to the issue of green cards that facilitate travel between the two countries, politicians said that they can get a green channel -- for billion-level investors, they will inevitably enjoy all kinds of conveniences, and it is necessary to give priority to processing and shorten the waiting list. When dealing with big investors, you have to be attractive.
What's more, a green card is not difficult for the government, according to the EB-5 immigration policy, an investment of $500,000 for a green card, a billion dollars of investment can generate 2,000 EB-5 places, but now this Chinese billionaire, he only needs two green cards. Is this a problem?
All problems are easily solved.
Meng Qian also experienced the supremacy of money in capitalist society - if you have money, you are God. The government will be diligent in currying favor with you and offering all kinds of benefits to attract you. This is still a developed state, and if it is a poorer state, I am afraid that the treatment will be more enthusiastic.
