Chapter 11 Investments
The next day, early in the morning, the two woke up one after another, looked at each other and smiled, and then cleaned up.
"Tom, do any of you know anything about Korea?" After the two of them had breakfast outside, after coming to the place where Lin Fei's team was, Lin Fei asked.
"BOSS, I know more about this side, if you don't know, we can find the bank staff here to cooperate, that is, are you going to start investing in the industry?" Tom himself is an American in his thirties, and as the manager of Lin Fei, a private bank under Citibank, he is mainly responsible for investing in Lin Fei; For the current boss, Tom feels very good, although his ability in this area is a little poor, but he can let himself operate freely, which makes him very satisfied.
"Well, I'm going to invest in some business here." Lin Fei said.
"BOSS, what industry are you going to invest in?" Tom asked, a little confused. He knows a lot about this boss, and he is completely a novice in business, but when he sees the women around him, he understands something.
"It's mainly the entertainment industry, investing in a farm." Lin Fei said that he had thought about this yesterday.
"BOSS, with your identity, it may not be possible to invest much in the entertainment industry, after all, the Korean entertainment industry has been greatly influenced by the government since the beginning of these years. As for farms, the prices of farms in Korea are high due to the size problem, and some are not worth it. Tom was a little depressed when he heard this, but he still said.
"If I really want to invest in this, what advice do you have?" Lin Fei's brows furrowed, he couldn't imagine that the two things he liked were so difficult, and asked in a deep voice.
"BOSS, according to the business operation, you can let the locals bring you forward, but I think according to the national situation, this is a bit troublesome, if the local people have problems, then everything is over. And according to my understanding, even so, it is still too difficult for you to develop in the entertainment industry. (You can open a branch, but you can't train artists.) Of course, it is difficult for artists to develop in their own countries. )
"As for the farm, it's easy to say, although the price is high, it's much better than the entertainment industry, as long as you pay more, it's still no problem." Tom thought for a moment and said.
"Then can I let my wife set up an entertainment company?" Lin Fei thought for a moment and asked.
"As long as your wife is an adult, of course there is no problem, but if you want to develop well, it is difficult to have no relationship in this circle." Tom glanced at Li Zhixian, and when he heard this, he knew that the other party was a local, and said after thinking for a while.
"Since this is possible, you can help me find a suitable farm on Jeju Island, preferably with mountains and rivers, and preferably with a larger area." Lin Fei thought for a moment and said.
"Also give me in Gangnam. If you are not familiar with what kind of office building you need, then refer to other entertainment companies. Lin Fei continued.
"BOSS, the office building should be able to be completed within a week, as for the farm, it's hard to say, it depends on the situation." Tom thought for a moment and said. I didn't say anything about Lin Fei's investment in my heart, after all, even if the farm loses, it won't lose much, and the entertainment company seems to be prepared for its own boss, so he won't have any opinions.
"Well, Jihyun, I'm going to get a green card now? Find Sapphire to accompany you, maybe I'm going to be busy until the afternoon. After thinking for a while, Lin Fei said to Li Zhixian beside him.
Lee Ji-hyun has been smiling and watching the two chatting all the time, and he doesn't interject, but after seeing Tom's somewhat surprised eyes, he feels a little happy in his heart.
"Well, then I'll go and practice with Sapphire Blue. Classes are going to be again tomorrow. Li Zhixian looked at Lin Fei, who was a little apologetic, and smiled. She knew that Lin Fei was so eager to deal with these things for her own affairs, even if she was a little reluctant in her heart, she wouldn't say anything.
……
"BOSS, don't you have a U.S. green card? It is better to invest directly in the United States, and it is much more convenient to develop than this. When the time comes, the lady will also go with her. Tom looked at the departing Lee Ji-hyun and said with some distress.
"Tom, I'm not really trying to invest, I'm just looking for something to do for myself, and take care of my wife by the way." Lin Fei was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly.
"BOSS, it's not me saying you, you want a farm with a large area, mountains and rivers, in the United States, 2000W dollars, you can buy at least about 5000 acres of farms, but in South Korea, I think 1000 acres are a little difficult." Tom smiled wryly. Although he knew that this money was actually nothing in the boss's heart, it was really not a good investment. And Li Zhixian has already left, and with his understanding of Lin Fei, he also knows what to say.
"That's always what I wanted, and the location didn't matter to me. I think of this farm as my home. Lin Fei said. He has been running around all these years, of course he knows some things, in fact, he originally wanted to contract in China, but he wanted to renovate himself, which cost a lot, and the contract period, so he gave up.
"Okay, but I'd suggest it's better to do an integrated farming ranch. It's better to develop this way, and if you use him as a residence, the comprehensive ranch scenery is definitely a lot better. Tom said.
"Well, just choose what you think. However, it is best to have an area of more than 10,000 acres. I'm mainly planting fruit trees, you have to pay attention to that. Lin Fei said.
"Isn't this area a bit big, you must know that it will occupy one-fiftieth of Jeju Island." Tom said with a wry smile. You must know that Jeju Island is an island formed by a volcano, and there is a large green area on the island, many of which are not suitable for planting, and there are many people on it.
"You try your best, but it's better to fix it as soon as possible. My father-in-law told me that next year Jeju Island would set up an independent administrative unit. I guess that means something, you know. "The reason why Lin Fei chose Jeju Island is not only that the island is originally very good, but also some future development, although the memory does not say how good the development is, but the entertainment industry knows that it must be good when it often haunts Jeju Island.
"In this case, I will arrange someone to do it as much as possible, but it is best for the boss to solve the problem of the green card as soon as possible, and it will be more convenient when the time comes." Tom was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the boss's wife's family was not simple, no wonder the boss would develop here.
"Hey, I really don't want to be so troublesome." Lin Fei sighed.
"BOSS, you can actually ask the bank to help." Tom said.
"Really?" Lin Fei asked. He still doesn't know about this, his previous U.S. green card was handled for him by friends in the group, and he himself didn't understand the procedures at all.
"Of course, with the amount of cash you have, I don't think any country will refuse. As long as the bank tells you about your situation and information, it is very simple to handle. Tom thought that the day before yesterday there was another flow of money into the account he managed, and said with some envy in his heart. Of course, he is also a person in Lin Fei's chat group, but he didn't speak in the group, Lin Fei let him in to let him in to reassure him about his source of funds.
"By the way, how much money do I have in those two accounts now?" Lin Fei remembered Li Zhixian's words last night and asked. He only kept a few million for his own expenses, and his previous income was basically in the two accounts managed by Tom, so it can be said that although Tom is now an employee of Citigroup, he is more of his manager, and he also has a team under UBS.
"Because of this large inflow, Citigroup now has about 300 million in cash, and about 800 million in stock futures; The Swiss account now has about 400 million in cash, but only about 300 million in stocks and futures. Tom said. I was a little surprised in my heart, after all, this account Lin Fei can be supervised, and it has been a few years, so I don't know the specific situation.
"Then let's go to the bank, I just need to get some credit cards to use here." Lin Fei said that he was a little surprised when he thought of the funds in his two accounts, but he didn't think too much about it, but he felt a lot better when he thought about the green card processing.
……
"Mr. Lin, are you sure you want to apply for a green card? You must know that as long as the investment amount is not enough, the restrictions on having a green card are relatively large. Lee Jae-shin, as a senior executive of the private banking department of Citigroup in South Korea, although he agrees with Lin Fei on his own identity issue, he still reminds him of his professional relationship.
"It's reassuring that my team is looking for suitable investment targets for me, and I'll be in Korea for most of the time." Lin Fei said.
"That's fine, then we'll go directly to handle it in the afternoon." Lee Jae-shin said.
"Okay, I'm getting a few credit cards so I can spend here." Lin Fei said.
"I don't know, what kind of credit card do you need? How much is the amount per card. Lee Jae-shin asked.
"Is there any difference?" Lin Fei asked suspiciously, credit cards are credit cards, are there many kinds.
"It mainly depends on the amount of consumption and consumption habits you have. The amount of credit card swiped varies from credit card to day, and large transactions must be processed at the bank. Lee Jae-shin said.
"In that case, give me two credit cards with an unlimited number of purchases and 10 supplementary cards with a daily limit of 500W won." Lin Fei said after thinking for a while. Although his girlfriend is not short of money, this is certainly not indispensable.
"Well, one card is fine, but two need to be applied for." Li Zaishen was stunned in his heart, and said with a wry smile. A credit card with unlimited spending is not a simple thing, but a credit card is different from a regular bank card.
"Why, is it hard to get this kind of credit card?" Lin Fei looked at Li Zaishen, who was a little helpless, and asked suspiciously.
"This kind of card, called the black card, is a bit exaggerated in the legend. However, in fact, there are two kinds of black cards, one is a special black card, which is generally handled by the bank for specific special users, as long as the money on the card is enough, it can be swiped at will, and the overdraft amount can be within a certain range according to the situation; The second is an ordinary black card, which can be handled as long as the cash reaches a certain level or personal assets reach a certain level, and its function is similar to that of a special black card, but the overdraft limit and service are somewhat different. Lee said after thinking for a moment.
"Since that's the case, then apply for two ordinary black cards for me, and one of the two cards can be transferred to $100 million, so it shouldn't be difficult." Lin Fei said.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin; Citibank's black card must be handled by the person, and it can only be decided according to the situation, and it is not possible to apply for two cards at a time. Lee Jae-shin said apologetically.
