Chapter 1482 About the University
At the end of the millennium, the design trend of world architecture has undergone a major change.
When the car is driving on the road, you can see many high-rise buildings that are under construction or have been completed from the side of the road, and the outside is covered with various colors of glass, and the shape is also strange.
Compared with the previous square architectural style, it has changed a lot, lest it is not peculiar enough to attract the attention of others, and it looks harmonious next to the old buildings with decades or even hundreds of years of history.
This change was brought about by Han Xuan, who really moved the Stark Building in the "Iron Man" comics to reality, and drummed up the spiral building and the four towers of the Snow Mountain.
When they first appeared, some people expressed their difficulty in accepting this, and it became pleasing to the eye after a long time, and they would like it, and even Mr. Pei Luming, a Chinese design master, specially learned from Han Xuan, asking him how this little head grew and how he understood everything......
Time has caused a slow process of change to the city of New York, Fifth Avenue is still the drunken Fifth Avenue, shops are open and closed, and there will never be a shortage of businessmen who want to set up shop here in this world-class shopping place where every inch of land is valuable.
Take SOS Supermarket as an example, you can imagine how many people will go to the supermarket on Fifth Avenue?
But being able to open a store here is a proof of strength, many emerging clothing brands, cosmetics, and luxury goods companies, even if they lose money, have to use the traffic of Fifth Avenue to advertise for themselves to earn fame, and the civilian brand ZARA, always like to open stores next to first-line brands is a reason.
The building where the supermarket opened had already been bought by Mr. Han in its entirety, and he didn't have to think about whether he was losing money or making money, he was advertising, and this money had no effect on him, with the sky-high rent of Fifth Avenue, in fact, most of the shops were losing money and making money.
Han Xuan had planned to come to Fifth Avenue to invest in some real estate, and the shops he bought in Rodeo Avenue and Ginza in Japan have all appreciated smoothly.
It's a pity that no one wants to sell the high-quality shops on both sides of Fifth Avenue, and even if they have the intention of selling, they are far more than the actual value, and there are low-priced ones, but the location is definitely not good.
No one is stupid, owning a shop in this kind of commercial street that does not worry about renting, you can get a lot of rental income every year, it can be called a chicken that can lay golden eggs, if you are not short of money, why sell it......
Speaking of the real estate shops he has invested in over the years, when Japan has not yet come out of the economic crisis, the properties that Han Xuan bought in Ginza, Japan, have helped him earn a lot of money in the past few years.
At this moment, Han Xuan was proudly telling Anya: "Do you remember the Japanese heroine who made the movie with me?
Her Japanese name is Tsukasa Nishino, and I met her on the side of the road in December 1994 when I first arrived in Tokyo, Japan.
At that time, she was working part-time, renting herself out to be someone else's girlfriend, and this strange profession was popular in Japan, and Xiao Si was very clever and didn't dare to pick those teenagers or uncles, and then he stared at me at that time.
You should remember what I was like back then, I was just a little bit, and I wasn't a threat at all. ”
Hearing his helpless tone, Anya recalled the appearance of the little boy in her mind,
He laughed again and asked cooperatively, "I remember, and then?" ”
"Then I rented her...... Of course, I didn't have any other thoughts about her, I just thought it was funny, and I needed a guide who knew Tokyo. ”
Han Xuan explained very calmly, he felt that at this time, in the face of his girlfriend, it was necessary to explain, and then said: "Before going to Japan, my grandfather acquired the US headquarters of 7-Eleven, and also planned to acquire 7-Eleven in Japan to enter the Asian market.
Mr. Kazuhiko, the president of Komaru Co., Ltd., happened to know the president of Ito-Yokado Trading Co., Ltd., and because he wanted to partner with my grandfather in the convenience store business, he accompanied him to Mr. Masatoshi Ito, the president of Ito-Yokado, to discuss cooperation.
Unfortunately, the project only involved the 7-Eleven convenience store division, and it would have been nice to buy some of Ito-Yokado's main shares.
Last year, the turnover of this company exceeded 21 billion US dollars, ranking 167th among the world's top 500 enterprises, and its scale was only about half of what it is now.
The old man went to talk about business, and I, with Tsukasa Nishino, went to Ginza, Tokyo's most famous business district, to try to buy some shops as an investment.
At that time, Japan was still in the midst of an economic crisis, and the price of the Ginza store had fallen by more than half compared to the peak of land prices before the collapse of the real estate bubble.
So I contacted a number of real estate agents and put together 150 million US dollars, which is equivalent to about 20 billion yen, to invest all in the shops in the Ginza area.
It's not easy to make money, it's too easy to spend money, and now the most expensive building near Ginza Hachicho, the Wako Building, is in my name.
I bought it for more than 6 billion yen, but I didn't sell it last year when the original owner bid 11.5 billion yen, and in my opinion, there is still room for it to rise, and the land price of the entire Ginza will rise.
In addition, I have more than 130 shops there, with an increase of about 60 percent, and the rent alone has brought me more than $20 million in profits over the years, all of which are located in prime locations.
In the words of Mr. Warren Buffett, a crisis is not necessarily a bad thing, it can be an opportunity for some people, like me, and my success is inseparable from several economic crises in recent years, all of which I have seized.
Another interesting thing to tell you is that when my grandfather went to the city hall in Japan, he happened to be attacked by poison gas, and he was in a very serious condition, and he thought he would not survive it, and then told me that he had nine tons of gold in the Union Bank of Switzerland, and I don't know if it has become more now.
Ha ha! Seeing my grandfather's approach, you understand what the three holes of the cunning rabbit mean, right? ”
Anya remembered that the old man almost died because of the poisonous gas in the sand that year, and he threw a roll of his eyes to Han Xuan, and she didn't know what was funny about it.
There is gold buried at the bottom of the snow-capped mountain pasture, and there is a huge mine containing more than 1,000 tons of gold in Mongolia, and she doesn't think it's more than 9 tons.
This simple little girl didn't have much money in her bank account, and her horizons became broadened under Han Xuan's long-term influence.
In her eyes, beautiful glass and beautiful diamonds can be equated, she usually comes into contact with the top things in the world, and always listens to Han Xuan using "100 million" as a unit, so that some time ago, the Italian aristocratic son Giovanni showed off in front of her in the wrong direction.
There is an island in his house, and Han Xuan has many islands; His family is rich, and Han Xuan is even richer; His family is an aristocrat, but the title of nobility has long been degraded to worthlessness by Han Xuan in front of Anya, and there is almost no comparison between the two.
This is not to say that Anya forces like to pick more powerful people to be their boyfriends, she doesn't care about these material things, she is more similar to her mother Mrs. Cecilia's free and easy personality, she is pure in following her own heart, not envious of others, and not looking down on herself.
Now, she looked at Han Xuan and asked with a fox expression: "Do you know that I am studying business, so I have been talking to me a lot about these topics recently?"
That's right, you've never told me about business before, but you've been talking a lot lately.
Tell a little story about your business first, and then analyze it, it's all this routine, I've heard it, and the people around me have told you, right? Something about me studying business. ”
"Maybe someone really said something to me casually."
Han Xuan shrugged, and then said: "Actually, you don't have to do this, if you don't like it, you won't learn, why make it difficult for yourself."
I can see that you have no talent for business at all, and you can do your art with peace of mind, and I will do business, and if there is a reporter who embarrasses you in the future, I will help you beat him. ”
Anya's expression was a little tangled.
It stands to reason that the bodyguards around her are informing, and she feels that she should be angry about it, in the American social concept, personal privacy is very important, but Han Xuan's approach moved her very much.
The character is like a rabbit, and if he can't figure it out, he hides in a hole, skips the topic, and says in silence: "But I want to learn."
You can help me when I'm upset, and when you're upset, I can only sit on the sidelines, and I can't even figure out what you're worried about, I don't want to see that happen......"
After listening, it was Han Xuan's turn to be moved, as an experienced theorist, he understood that a healthy relationship should be like this, and help each other.
However, because of Anya's naivety, she felt that she couldn't cry or laugh, and if she really encountered a business problem that she couldn't solve, it was estimated that she wouldn't be able to help.
continued: "Okay, I respect your choice, in the future, with you standing by my side, I feel that my business can be done in the universe."
If you have a question that you can't figure out, just ask me, and I'll tell you if you can answer it, but don't try to do business, it's not for you. ”
Anya nodded earnestly, and she felt so herself.
Let her send a flyer, she may be entangled in the face of passers-by for a long time, not to mention dealing with messy business, dealing with others is not her strong point at all......
