Wang Weidong discussed with Li Yueshi for a night without a result, and he decided to have a direct showdown with Mr. Robert Jr. the next day.

"Mr. Robert, what are the benefits if I invest here? Will those rumors that are not good for us at Sunningdale Electronics end? Wang Weidong asked.

Hearing that Wang Weidong might invest in Salt Lake City, Robert Jr. was very happy.

He said to Wang Weidong with certainty: "Of course, if Xiangyang Electronics can invest in Salt Lake City, it is to tell them with facts that you are a friend of our Mi people, and those troubles will pass." But I have one condition, you Sunningdale must invest in Park City! ”

"Where's Park City?" Wang Weidong asked.

It was the first time he had heard the name.

Robert Jr. drove Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi to a place less than 50 kilometers from Salt Lake City.

A small town of less than 10,000 people appeared there.

In China, a place with fewer than 10,000 people is not even a town.

"This is it, king! It's quiet at this time of year, but in winter when the ski resort opens, it's a lot more lively. Robert Jr. pointed to the mountains in the distance.

"How big can I build a factory in such a small place?" Wang Weidong said embarrassedly.

"There are already a lot of people here, and because the work is so seasonal, a lot of people's jobs have become a problem, and you can build a factory here with 200 or 300 workers!" Robert Jr. replied.

Wang Weidong was stunned, he didn't expect Little Robert's request to be so humble.

"Is it okay to build a factory with 200 people here? I can achieve this goal! I just don't know what the price of land is here? Wang Weidong said.

"This is Utah, not damn California! If I come forward to negotiate for you, $8,000 an acre of rent will do! Robert Jr. replied.

One acre is equivalent to six acres in China, or 4,000 square meters. Building a factory of 40,000 square meters is enough, that is, it requires $80,000 in rent per year.

"I've heard that your taxes here are high." Wang Weidong said.

Little Robert smiled, he put his arm around Wang Weidong's shoulders and said, "King, we are a paradise for the rich here!" Our wealth is all obtained by our own ingenuity and hard work, so why should we pay so many taxes? That's why my father and I hate the Donkey Party! Haven't you heard such stories? A rich man does not pay as much tax to the state every year as his female secretary. Of course, to do this, you need a good lawyer to help you manage your finances! ”

Wang Weidong hesitated for a moment and finally said the question in his heart.

"Mr. Robert, what do you want me to invest here? I guess it won't be because of money, if it's for money, you work a little harder, and it's enough to sell inverters to Sunningdale in the United States. I can't see how I can benefit you from investing in a factory here? ”

"Of course there are benefits!" Robert Jr. said.

"The last time my dad was campaigning, in this little part of Park City, he was so far behind the damn donkey guy! If you build a factory here and give jobs to two or three hundred workers, I am confident that in the next election, I will definitely bring back the ballot board here! Robert Jr. said confidently.

Wang Weidong finally understood why Robert Jr. had to let him invest in Park City.

"But Wang, don't think that I made up the story that your Xiangyang Electronics is a Chinese military industrial enterprise, because this incident was said by my father's rivals when they attacked him. That damn guy said that my father's son is now working for a Chinese military-industrial complex. If you come here to invest in building a factory, when you register, you will find that there is no shadow of the country among the shareholders of Xiangyang Electronics, and my father will use this matter to slap the opponent's mouth! Of course, my father and I will be grateful to you! Robert Jr. said.

"Nothing, that's what I'm supposed to do." Wang Weidong replied.

"Is this what I'm supposed to do? I found that what you said is very good, very in the style of a politician in the United States! Robert Jr. said appreciatively.

I've said this sentence countless times since I was a child, and I'm used to it. Every Chinese often says this. Wang Weidong replied.

"You Chinese are the most dedicated people in the world, it's amazing!" Robert Jr. said sincerely.

Back at the hotel, Li Yueshi asked, "Boss, have you really decided to build a factory here?" ”

"I've decided that it's not too expensive to rent a piece of land for $80,000 a year. Even if the factory will lose money, I think it will be a good deal, and this matter will be very beneficial for us to sell inverters in the United States in the future. Wang Weidong said.

"However, listening to Robert's meaning, this matter is not deliberately made by him, but someone really reported to the US government that our Xiangyang Electronics is a Chinese military enterprise. That's why Mr. Robert Jr.'s father's political opponents used this incident to attack him. Li Yueshi said.

"yes, that's what gives me a headache. It's really annoying to not do your own business well and engage in crooked ways every day! Wang Weidong said.

In the days that followed, Mr. Wang wandered around Salt Lake City, while Ms. Li collected business information about the economic costs of investing in a business here.

After a few days of investigation, Wang Weidong felt quite satisfied, in addition to the labor cost is much higher than in China, there are other aspects of energy and water use that are not higher than in China.

Li Yueshi's suggestion to Wang Weidong was to set up a charitable foundation to reduce the tax burden. This is a common tax avoidance tactic used by the wealthy in the United States.

And Robert Jr. also brought good news to Wang Weidong.

The state government of Utah has made a decision to subsidize $3,000 per year for each worker hired if Sunningdale makes an investment in Utah.

"Very well, Mr. Robert. As the business representative of Sunningdale Electronics in the United States, you are very competent! Wang Weidong said.

"So when did you decide to invest here?" Robert Jr. asked with concern.

With only a year left before his father's next election, Robert Jr. hopes that Wang Weidong can complete the investment move as soon as possible.

"Half a year, within half a year, Sunningdale will begin to invest in building factories here." Wang Weidong said.

After dealing with this matter, according to Li Yueshi's meaning, she hopes to travel with Wang Weidong in various parts of the country for a month.

See the Great Lakes and get around New York. However, this suggestion was immediately rejected by Wang Weidong.

"Miss Li, we can't stay here anymore. Song Yu just called me, he is about to get married, and I have to rush back immediately! Wang Weidong said.
