In fact, a single housekeeping system can already meet the various needs of Chen Cao's family.
Other black technologies are just icing on the cake.
There is no truly epoch-making technology, let alone a revolutionary product.
Some of them are known technologies and then they are constantly being innovated.
For example, the satellites of security systems companies are actually government and military satellites that have been modified and put into the civilian market.
It's just that ordinary companies don't have the ability to get a license to operate satellites.
What is really advanced is the intelligence of the housekeeping system itself.
And the sub-item pet management system is just a modified version of the face recognition system.
Of course, there are more functions, which also need to be experienced by Chen Cao's family after moving in.
Among the commonly used functions is face recognition, voice recognition, and fingerprint recognition.
A not-so-big housekeeping system has turned Mingyue Villa into a small sci-fi city.
Li Qiong debugged the housekeeping system for Chen Cao, which took a week.
After completing the commissioning, she received a check for half a million dollars.
Li Qiong is quite a pity, Chen Cao did not express the idea of going further with her.
The two are not all the way after all.
But a check for $500,000 was enough to satisfy her.
During this period, the market valuation of Big Mountain Beer reached $1.3 billion.
This is mainly due to the strong market performance of Dashan Beer after a brief suspension of production after a brief period of discontinuation after the tropical storm passed.
With more than a million cans sold a day, it has already established a dominant position in California, and the news that Big Mountain Beer will be sold nationwide has attracted the attention of investors.
No less than 20 investors have inquired about Dashan Brewery, wanting to buy or inject capital into Dashan Beer.
The banks, on the other hand, are more eager to negotiate a 20% stake at a pre-agreed premium of 200 percent, and if they can't negotiate any more, the market valuation of Dashan Beer is likely to exceed $1.5 billion.
Eventually, the bank will likely have to pay much more than originally budgeted to buy the shares.
At that time, the negotiations to buy the shares are likely to end in failure.
So the bank eventually bought a 22% stake at a market valuation of $1.4 billion plus a 200% premium.
That's $924 million, a 22% stake.
Although the bank will help Chen Cao start the tax avoidance plan, Chen Cao still needs to deduct part of the tax in the end, which is unavoidable, and the money that Chen Cao can get in the end is about 800 million US dollars.
However, this money is not a one-time payment, after all, tax avoidance also needs to be done little by little, and it is impossible to do it all at once.
So far, $200 million has entered Chen Cao's account.
This is the first time since Nanqi Island that Chen Cao has received such a large amount of money.
And in the next six months, about 800 million US dollars will also enter Chen Cao's personal account one after another.
......
"Mr. Chen, what do you think of this design?" asked Ofer Lebier.
"If I say I want to increase the budget, can I change the plan?" asked Chen Cao.
With money in hand, Chen Cao couldn't help but want to spend it.
Ofer Lebier was a little embarrassed, after all, it took more than a month and a design team of dozens of people to work together to complete the design drawings.
If it comes to minor modifications, he can accept them.
However, if the design plan is overturned, he will not be able to accept it.
"I wonder how much Mr. Chen is going to increase his budget?" asked Ofer Lebier.
"I want a $300 million yacht. ”
Offie Lebier almost didn't squirt: "Mr. Chen, are you serious?"
"Hmm. Chen Cao nodded.
$300 million yachts? $200 million more than the original budget.
And this $300 million yacht is enough to make the yacht rank among the top ten yachts in the world.
"Mr. Chen, no problem, we can come up with a new plan, but it will take a month. ”
"Okay, let's redesign it. Chen Cao nodded.
This man is not only rich, but also super-rich.
Originally, Offie Lebier thought that Chen Cao was only adding one or two million dollars.
And his team of designers worked hard for more than a month, from the design cost to the labor cost plus the time cost also required millions of dollars, so of course he was not willing to overturn and redo.
But now, Chen Cao actually wants to increase the budget by 200 million US dollars.
That's no problem at all, just think about it, and take the lead in bringing a deal like this to the company, and Ofer Lebier feels his blood boiling.
Yachts are currently one of the most valuable luxury goods in the world, with up to 90% of their value retained within five years.
And 70% of the value will be maintained within 20 years, you must know that in 20 years, the speed of technological upgrading and currency depreciation is far more than the value of yachts.
In other words, if Chen Cao follows the yacht design budget of 300 million US dollars, it is still possible to sell it for 200 million US dollars in 20 years.
So rich people like to play with yachts, because yachts are tired of playing, they sell them, and they can get a new one.
Or if you need an emergency fund, you can get it by selling a yacht only.
Don't think that rich people are unreasonable, you can buy a new one at this price.
In fact, not everyone is willing to wait a year or two, or even three or four years.
Nowadays, the construction technology of yachts has been updated, except for the construction of super cruise ships, which require a cycle of more than three years.
In the case of a yacht, the construction period will not exceed a year and a half, including the design time.
In other words, by the end of next year at the latest, Chen Cao will be able to get his own yacht.
"By the way, do you have any off-the-shelf, multi-million-dollar yachts in your company, and I need to have a replacement before the custom yacht is completed. ”
"Yes, of course. Ofer Lebil said excitedly.
In more than a year, this person was willing to spend tens of millions of dollars on a replacement.
The world of the rich is indeed unreasonable.
Of course, Ofer Lebil would not have been able to make money on this yacht.
After all, it is also necessary to give Chen Cao a little kickback.
"What is Mr. Chen's budget?"
"It's less than $50 million. ”
"Yes, I will deliver the finished yacht models and quotations currently stored in our company to you in the shortest possible time, no more than three days at most, please wait. ”
Alfo Lebeer sent the news back to headquarters on the same day, and the $300 million list is also the largest order since Seagate's establishment, and no one will take this list lightly.
In the past, Chen Cao didn't pay much attention to yachts, because Chen Cao felt that he spent so much money and didn't live at sea.
But in the period from last year to this year, after Chen Cao went to sea many times, Chen Cao felt that yachts were also a necessity.
