Chapter 120: Goodbye Electric Eyes Long Legs
With these thoughts in mind, Locke chatted with the Crawfords about other historical and archaeological experiences, and at the same time thought about the layout of Europe.
As the so-called cunning rabbit three holes, he did not intend to put all his industries in the United States, and investment in Europe has long been in his plan, of which Britain is an important fulcrum in Europe.
Now Locke's roots in the United States are very shallow, whether it is now or in the future, through the perspective of the future, making money in the financial market is the most important channel for him to earn cash.
When he earns $100 million, some people will target him, but more often than not, there will be people who want to make money with him.
After all, $100 million is a small amount relative to the entire market, and it is not even a cake.
When a billion dollars are earned, there will be more hungry wolves, and there will be some problems in trying to keep the wealth, but they can still be solved, just like now Locke is building contacts in New York and Texas, trying to benefit each other.
But when you can easily make tens or tens of billions of profits, the various pressures you face will increase linearly.
So he divided his investment in finance into several parts, which looked like different forces.
But the money earned will always be exchanged for industry and influence, and diversification in different countries is also an inevitable result.
As for the direction of investment, Locke has thought it through.
The U.S. side is dominated by banking, high-tech industries, and media industries.
The banking industry is to make the capital turnover channel more secretive, the high-tech industry is the future, and the media industry is to increase its own influence, making it more difficult for others to take action against themselves.
As for overseas funds, Locke is ready to focus on prudent investment, learning from someone to buy those infrastructure companies, such as water, electricity, natural gas and other industries.
These companies have stable annual revenues and stable annual growth in assets.
Of course, in order to ensure the prospects of these industries, at least the country must be stable and have some potential for development.
Britain is a good place to invest, although Britain has nationalization, but the future of water, electricity, gas, and even oil will be privatized.
If you master these, you will become an invisible behind-the-scenes boss.
The size of the country in Europe is just right, and it will not be like the United States, which needs a lot of money to dominate a certain industry.
In addition, there is also the investment in land, such as farms, ranches, wineries.
Land is the most basic, stable and indispensable wealth, which seems to be low on the surface, but it is really profitable when it scales, but it is not as glamorous as some industries.
It's like Bill Gates, the tech giant.
If it weren't for the news, no one would have dared to predict that the world's richest man, who quickly gained massive wealth through technology, would become the largest farmer in the United States in a few decades.
This year's currency crisis in the pound and even in many European countries has given Locke an excellent opportunity.
Not only can you earn enough money, but you can also take advantage of this crisis to buy some shares and industries that you can't usually buy at a low price.
Considering the importance of Europe in the future, Locke is also ready to buy a property in London first, and by the way, he also asked the Tocralous couple to help inquire and ask for it in the first district.
The essence of the whole city of London is just around the corner of Zone 1.
The day after the dinner, I visited Cambridge University and the surrounding attractions, and the next day, I was received by the Crawford family and went to the British Museum with Peggy.
To be honest, Locke doesn't have much of a liking for these old works of art, but since you're going to invest in the UK, it's important to get some connections here.
After dinner that day, Locke arrived at a fashion show in London.
Sure enough, it was Vanessa, but I didn't see the three long legs that I had worked with her before. ’
In the VIP seat of the fashion show, Locke looked at the models walking the catwalk on the stage, and the most eye-catching thing was the model walking in front of him.
is not only because of her appearance and figure, but also because of the coldness in her eyes when she walked on the catwalk, but people couldn't help but feel like they were being electrified.
If the similarity in appearance can be said to be a coincidence, but that kind of look makes the model in front of Locke's eyes be Vanessa.
It's just that he didn't expect that she, a robber who committed a big crime in New York, would dare to appear on the catwalk of the London fashion show.
Seeing familiar people, Locke felt that he could catch up with the other person.
At the same time, here in New York, the American sweetheart in Friends, Rachel Green's wedding date is also approaching.
In the room, Rachel, the bride-to-be, who listened to her parents discuss the wedding with the bridegroom-to-be, Barry, was a little distracted.
I don't know why, the excitement and happiness after the engagement of the successful and longed-for the doctor since childhood began to dissipate as the wedding approached, and all kinds of shortcomings of the dentist Barry emerged.
During this time, Rachel's mind flashed more and more frequently, some of the bold thoughts that had been in the past.
Especially the encounter with regret more than half a year ago.
He and his girlfriends went to New York City to be chic, and it was in that bar that she met because of God's guidance, and the handsome guy she met now often appeared in her dreams, and the wild night of indulgence that the two of them did not begin in their dreams.
It was God's guidance, and under God's witness, I met that handsome man.
But those plastic girlfriends don't understand themselves at all, a bride-to-be who is about to enter the palace of marriage, is about to lose her free life and face the depression.
If it weren't for their existence, ruining the fantasy dream night, I might not be as depressed and dissatisfied as I am now, and my mind is full of fantasies with that handsome guy.
Especially lately, I found myself going distracted from time to time, and those little were pretending to care about what they were thinking.
How can she answer, she can only say that she is thinking about her wedding and her fiancé Barry.
They laughed pompously when they heard this, making fun of their deep romance with Barry.
But Rachel, who knows them, knows that they must know what is really going on in their hearts.
Maybe you're still laughing in your heart, and you're not satisfied with the dentist husband we can't get, and you still want to have the same freedom as we do now?
After the wedding was discussed, Barry returned to his house, and Rachel was still thinking about the handsome guy and her bachelorette party, if only she could find the other party.
It's best to be able to dance together and have a wild night.
With all these years in her mind, Rachel didn't pay much attention to her fiancé's departure, and didn't notice the eyes of Barry and the head bridesmaid Mindy.
When Barry got home, and had just taken off his coat, there was a knock on the door, and as soon as he opened it, Rachel's head bridesmaid, Mindy, pounced.
"Mindy." Barry recognized the other at a glance.
did not speak, but the other party's skillful movements quickly got the cooperation of the dentist, and the dentist revealed the essence of a scumbag at this time.
After all, he is a dentist with a good income and a leisurely job, even if he is young because of his hairline troubles, his appearance is average.
But in the United States, money is justice, and after work, he gradually enjoyed the wonderful life experienced by those football players in his student days.
As Rachel's chief bridesmaid and plastic sister, Mindy's scheming far exceeds Rachel, who has relied on her face and cheerleading uniform since she was a child, and discovered the 'justice' of the dentist and secretly sent Qiu Bo early.
Barry, the dentist, felt that he had just made the choice that most men would make.
