549 Do you think I look like a braggart person?
After saying goodbye to Xu Qingdong, Cao Zhiqiang first went back to his room to take a nap, and after waking up in the afternoon, he simply wrote in the room.
This time, Cao Zhiqiang wrote in Japanese, which was the Japanese bestseller in his previous life, "Norwegian Forest".
In this world, this book has not yet appeared, and he is about to go to Japan, write this book in advance, even if he can't mix the name of a writer, it is good to earn more foreign exchange.
Originally, Cao Zhiqiang was really just pure plagiarism, but he could write, write, write, write, and write, and the more he wrote, the more he felt it.
This feeling of writing Japanese with a fountain pen is really refreshing, and it gives him the pleasure of returning to his childhood to copy.
In this way, I wrote until about 4:40 p.m., when a phone call interrupted Cao Zhiqiang's fun of copying papers.
When Cao Zhiqiang picked up the phone with a frown, he found that it was a person he didn't expect - Lou Xiao'e.
"Nani? Lou, Aunt Lou, you mean, you came to me in person? Right at the front desk on the ground floor? ”
"Yes, I happened to be free, so I came to see you and talk to you about business, what, aren't you welcome?"
"Welcome, welcome, how can it not be welcome." Cao Zhiqiang, who was holding the phone, smiled, "I just didn't expect you to come in person." So, you're in the lobby on the first floor, right, wait a minute, I'll pick you up. ”
After hanging up the phone, Cao Zhiqiang thought about it, hurriedly washed his face, and changed into a handmade suit that was specially customized by someone before, and then walked out of the room and went to the lobby on the first floor.
The handmade suits of this period are actually not expensive, because there are many tailor shops, and the craftsmanship is also good, the key is to see the quality of the material.
It's just that most of the suit versions in this period are European suits and Japanese suits.
The European version of the suit, that is, the kind of version with extra-wide shoulders, padded shoulders, and a cinched waist, looks like a T-shape.
There is also a Japanese version of the suit, which refers to the one that does not have particularly wide shoulders, no shoulder pads, and no corset, and the top and bottom are consistent, like the H-shaped kind.
Whether it is the European version or the Japanese version, it is not quite in line with Cao Zhiqiang's aesthetics, so he deliberately took out the later Korean version of the suit style, that is, there are no particularly wide shoulders, no shoulder pads, the waistline is slightly raised, and the waist is also tightened.
In addition to this, the outer collar of this suit is also a little narrower than the outer collar of a regular suit.
After such a change, the overall appearance is more slim, more close-fitting, and thinner, which is very in line with Cao Zhiqiang's thin body type, which looks more energetic.
Because Cao Zhiqiang's requirements are high, and the materials are good, it took a little more time, and it was only now ready to be delivered, and I didn't have time to let Cao Zhiqiang wear it to Japan.
However, since this version was made by the design ideas provided by Cao Zhiqiang, he decided that in the future, this suit will not be called the Korean version of the suit, but the Cao version of the suit.
He also plans to take this suit version with a waist increase and slim fit, and directly take it to Japan, Hong Kong, the United States and Europe, and apply for an appearance patent, and even if there is a chance in the future, set up a garment factory specializing in the production of this version of the suit, and mass produce this version of the suit.
In the future, if South Korea dares to use this version to call the Korean version, it will be infringement and stealing.
Although Cao Zhiqiang knows that this appearance style is difficult to define, it is also good to occupy a high ground of public opinion first.
No way, he really knows too much about Korean urine.
The reason why the current South Korea is not so outrageous is that South Korea's strength is not enough, and because it is the military government, that is, the Fifth Republic period, it is somewhat faceless.
If it were replaced by the so-called Sixth Republic, the so-called democratic South Korea, it would not be so shameless.
In short, people want clothes, Cao Zhiqiang wore a modern slim version of the suit, with his thin body, the whole person does look a sense of luxury.
As a result, when Cao Zhiqiang came to the living room in the lobby on the first floor and saw Lou Xiao'e sitting on the sofa waiting, Lou Xiao'e was stunned.
"You're dressed like this, and you look pretty good." Lou Xiao'e admired, "Where did you buy it, what brand?" ”
"Find someone to make it custom." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "No brand." ”
"Handmade suits, not bad." Lou Xiao'e praised again, "The master's skills are good. ”
Cao Zhiqiang smiled and directly invited Lou Xiao'e to talk in a Western restaurant.
Lou Xiao'e was not hypocritical, she quickly stood up, went to the western restaurant with Cao Zhiqiang, found a quiet place, and both sides ordered coffee.
After the waiter served the snacks and coffee, Lou Xiao'e went straight to the point: "Cao Zhiqiang, I like to be happy, and I don't talk nonsense, I'm very interested in your food, I want to buy all your shares, you can make a price." ”
"Buy them all?" Cao Zhiqiang blinked, "You mean, you want to buy my food for the sky?" ”
"yes, that's what it means." Lou Xiao'e nodded.
Immediately afterwards, Lou Xiao'e said: "Don't say anything you can't sell, I know, you first found me to talk about this, and gave me an idea, just to sell this restaurant to cash out, you deliberately pulled the stupid pillar in, and gave him a hundred percent of the shares, the purpose is also me, that is, to make me reluctant to sell this restaurant, so that I can sell it at a good price."
In addition, this restaurant is very popular right now, but this is a situation where you use various means to stir up the heat, and everyone thinks it is fresh.
If this freshness passes, in another two or three months, even if the business of the restaurant is still good, there will be no such crowd of customers.
Therefore, the current business of Shiweitian is booming, in fact, it is already the highest value, and it cannot last.
Finding someone to cash in at this time is the most cost-effective investment.
Otherwise, after a while, the business will go down, and you will want to find an investor like me, but it will be difficult to find.
Since everyone is smart, don't talk that nonsense.
You directly open a reasonable price, I want to see the right one, just buy it directly, hello I hello everyone, what do you think? ”
Cao Zhiqiang was stunned for a while when Lou Xiao'e came up, but he quickly reacted, blinked and said: "Oh, Aunt Lou, you are still a cheerful person, since this is the case, then I am not hypocritical."
Well, let's do it, food is the sky, in addition to the dry shares given to Uncle He, I also have ninety percent of the shares, according to what I said before, if you really want to buy them all, you can, at a fixed price, 900,000 US dollars, you take it. ”
Lou Xiao'e smiled: "I said, food is good now, but it is definitely not worth 900,000 US dollars."
Well, looking at the way you look, you want dollars, so I'll give you $150,000 and give me all the shares, okay? ”
Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "No, Aunt Lou, your counteroffer is too ruthless, it's six times worse!" It's only 150,000 US dollars, and you want my food to be the sky? Excessive, right? ”
"What's too much about that?" Lou Xiao'e said, "Your food is the sky, even if you buy a house with decoration, you can't get 300,000 RMB."
I don't lie to you, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the RMB is now one to two in the world, but in fact, if it is converted privately in China, because of the urgent shortage of US dollars in China, it is completely possible to achieve one to three, that is, one US dollar to three yuan RMB.
150,000 US dollars, if you exchange it for RMB in China, if you don't go to the bank, you can definitely exchange it for 450,000 RMB.
Even if you go to a regular bank to change, according to the calculation of one to two, 300,000 RMB will not suffer a loss, and there will definitely be a profit.
Of course, if you're willing to leave the chefs and waiters behind, you can discuss it again.
But after you sell me the shares, you must take people away, right?
So what you sold me was just an empty shell restaurant, at most the sign was a little famous, and it was worth a little money. ”
"No, too little, too little." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head, "The price is too small to sell!" ”
Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e smiled slightly: "Cao Zhiqiang, Ming people don't say secret words, the reason why you insist on asking for US dollars, and you deliberately approached me before, is that you want to go to Hong Kong to develop, right?"
In this way, if you sell me the restaurant for $150,000, I will not only give you $150,000, but also help you live in Hong Kong.
You may not know that Hong Kong is not what it used to be, the policy of landing at the base has been abolished, and it is not that people can settle down in Hong Kong, but it has become a policy of immediate arrest and release, and as long as they enter Hong Kong illegally, they must be repatriated.
However, if you are sponsored by a local businessman in Hong Kong and take you to work in a company in Hong Kong in the name of regular recruitment, then you can easily get a non-permanent residence card and stay and work in Hong Kong for a short time.
As long as you arrive in Hong Kong, settle down temporarily, live for seven years without problems, and have our family sponsorship, you will not have a problem applying for permanent residency in Hong Kong.
During this period, you can work normally to earn money, and you can also travel to and from the mainland without being affected. ”
Speaking of this, Lou Xiao'e paused slightly, and then smiled slightly: "Cao Zhiqiang, you are a smart person, you should know that the conditions for me to help you go to Hong Kong are worth much more than the 150,000 US dollars."
If it weren't for my help, even if you went to Hong Kong, you would still be a refugee, and you wouldn't be able to get an ID card at all, and once you were caught by the police, with the current policy, you would be repatriated immediately.
Normally, I wouldn't do this for anyone, but you're a good person, and you did help me, so I'm happy to do you this favor and take you to Hong Kong.
Now, do you still think $150,000 is less? ”
As soon as he heard Lou Xiao'e say this, Cao Zhiqiang immediately frowned.
Indeed, it is now 1983, Hong Kong has tightened its immigration policy, and the good old days of being able to get an ID card on arrival in Hong Kong are gone.
At this time, as long as people go to Hong Kong without permission from the mainland, they are illegal immigrants, and they do not have identity cards, and once they are caught by the police, they will be immediately repatriated.
Of course, under normal circumstances, as long as you are not particularly suspicious, the Hong Kong police will not check your ID card casually, they generally will not check your ID card casually.
Therefore, there are still many mainlanders who enter Hong Kong without permission to work and earn money as illegal immigrants, and when they earn enough money and can provide enough time to live in Hong Kong, and have a local guarantor in Hong Kong, they can also apply for an ID card.
Many mainlanders who went to Hong Kong to work hard in the 80s basically went through illegal immigration and then obtained their status after living for a period of time.
But this situation is not in line with Cao Zhiqiang, after all, if he goes to Hong Kong, it is impossible for him to be unknown for a long time, and he will definitely become famous, and when the time comes, if he is an illegal immigrant, it will be difficult to do.
However, Lou Xiao'e is right, if there are serious businessmen in Hong Kong who hire mainlanders to work in Hong Kong in the name of recruiting workers, as long as they follow the normal procedures and pay taxes on time, then there is no big problem, and they can get a non-permanent ID card.
It's just that this model is quite troublesome, and you have to declare it every year.
Of course, if he doesn't do this, Cao Zhiqiang has another way to go to Hong Kong, that is, to make money first.
When he saves up enough 10 million Hong Kong dollars, he can use the method of investment immigration to immigrate directly to Hong Kong, directly give a non-permanent residence ID card, live for seven years, and as long as he applies, he can easily get permanent residency.
Now is not later, at this time, Hong Kong's investment immigration policy is still quite relaxed, which belongs to the period of extensive absorption of funds, so as long as you have money now, as long as you are willing to invest this money in Hong Kong, if you want to obtain the right of abode in Hong Kong, don't be too easy.
And 10 million Hong Kong dollars, according to the current exchange rate of 1 to 1.25, isn't it 8 million RMB?
This money looks like a lot, but in fact, for Cao Zhiqiang, it is simply drizzle.
If nothing else, let's just say that Cao Zhiqiang will go to Japan this time, and he will be able to get the $500 million "shopping down payment" given to him by China in advance, and use this money to invest in immigration, which is not too easy.
Even if the "down payment" of 500 million US dollars is relatively hot and cannot be spent at will, it is not difficult for Cao Zhiqiang to save enough funds of 8 million RMB in a bright and bright way.
Cao Zhiqiang currently has 2 million RMB in cash on hand, which means that he only needs to earn another 6 million RMB.
As long as he releases one or two more hit songs in Japan and best-selling books, it will not be difficult to earn enough 6 million RMB.
When the time comes, he will use the method of investment immigration to buy a house in Xiangjiang, and he will make a steady profit with the current situation of the Hong Kong real estate market.
On the contrary, although the method provided by Lou Xiao'e is also possible, the procedures are very cumbersome and not so easy to pass.
Rather than this, it is better to continue to play investment immigration, and at most let Lou Xiao'e help find a reliable lawyer to solve all aspects of the problem.
In this way, even if it is a pure business relationship between him and Lou Xiao'e, there is no one who asks for whom.
Otherwise, once Cao Zhiqiang accepts Lou Xiao'e's "sincerity", it is equivalent to owing her a big favor, this kind of person's favor is very expensive, and it will have to be repaid sooner or later.
"Aunt Lou, thank you for your honesty." Cao Zhiqiang squinted slightly, "However, I like to be self-reliant and have enough food and clothing."
This, I know that Hong Kong currently has an investment immigration policy, as long as you can invest 10 million Hong Kong dollars in it, you can directly give your ID card and go to live in Hong Kong immediately, right? ”
Lou Xiao'e frowned: "Yes, there is such a policy, what, do you plan to invest in immigration?" ”
"Yes, that's the plan." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "I don't have so much money now, but it's fast, and I won't be able to save enough money in less than three months."
Therefore, if Aunt Lou really wants to help me, help me find a reliable lawyer and help me handle the investment immigration matter as soon as possible. ”
"Are you serious?" Lou Xiao'e stared at Cao Zhiqiang and asked.
"Seriously, of course." Cao Zhiqiang shrugged, "Do you think I look like someone who likes to brag?" ”
Lou Xiao'e looked at Cao Zhiqiang carefully, and then smiled and shook her head: "It's really not like bragging, it's just a little arrogant." ”
"There is arrogance because of confidence." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "I'm sure enough to make enough money in three months, so this benefit of helping me go to Hong Kong is free, so if you really want to buy my restaurant, it's better to add some money, I prefer real things." ”
"Okay." Lou Xiao'e sighed, "200,000 US dollars, this is my highest bid, no matter more, I can start a new one." ”
Cao Zhiqiang touched his chin and felt that this number was okay, after all, it was US dollars, and at this time, whether it was in Hong Kong or Japan, it was hard currency, and there was no need to apply for exchange with China.
"Deals, that's all." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.
Lou Xiao'e breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile: "Okay, in that case, I will give you 200,000 US dollars as soon as possible, but it is best to deliver it in Hong Kong, otherwise, it will be a little inconvenient to enter the mainland." ”
"I understand." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "That's right, I also plan to use this money to spend in Japan, so I'll just take Hong Kong, transfer from Hong Kong to Japan, and stay in Hong Kong for a while, and then you can give me the money." ”
"No problem." Lou Xiao'e said, "However, in order to prevent accidents, I hope that after we sign the contract and the transaction is completed, you don't immediately take people away, let them stay for a while, and then wait for me to find a replacement, and then slowly hand over, what do you think?" ”
"Absolutely." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "I'm not the one who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, and we will cooperate for a long time in the future, so it's the best." ”
"In that case, then I'll be fine." Lou Xiao'e smiled slightly, "Do you still have questions?" ”
"I don't have it either." Cao Zhiqiang shrugged.
"So, let's have a good time together?" Lou Xiao'e smiled and stretched out her hand.
"Happy working together!" Cao Zhiqiang reached out and shook Lou Xiao'e's hand.
