01606 Selling tires
Coran saw the man smile at him, then turned away again.
Coran was all too familiar with that smile.
He'd seen it twice because of the smile.
This is the third time!
Coran quickened his pace to catch up.
Colan saw Chen Cao turn into an alley.
Coran immediately followed.
But as soon as he turned the corner.
It's a punch in the face.
"Wow......" Colan fell to the ground clutching his stomach, "You...... You...... Hello despicable......"
Chen Cao glanced at Kelan at his feet: "Whoever has time to rub shoulders with you, every time he comes to provoke me, he doesn't cripple you, it's all my great mercy." β
As he spoke, Chen Cao swaggered away.
Colan was filled with grief and indignation, he had thought.
Now that his strength has greatly improved, he will definitely be able to seek revenge on Chen Cao.
So when he saw Chen Cao again, he couldn't be happier.
But as a result, he was plotted.
He didn't even use his own tricks, so he was plotted by the other party.
Collana is angry.
Obviously he is more powerful, why can't he fight this guy?
Chen Cao didn't care how depressed Kelan was.
He had come to see Alex's office.
Alex moved her law firm to Los Angeles.
After making several phone calls in a row and confirming the address.
Chen Cao took another turn around the area.
That's when I found Alex's law firm.
Chen Cao entered Alex's office: "It's really hard to find you here. β
Chen Cao looked at Alex's office, which was not very big.
However, the location is quite good, this area belongs to the financial district, surrounded by high-rise buildings.
It's just that after Alex moved in, it seems that the renovation is still the same as the previous company, and there is no redecoration.
"Why don't you redecorate? Your law firm is a well-known law firm in San Francisco, but now in Los Angeles, this kind of faΓ§ade affects your firm's reputation too much." β
"If you can pay a little more, I'd be happy to redecorate. Alex said disapprovingly.
"I'm going to pay your law firm at least five million dollars a year, and you're telling me I don't have the money to renovate?"
"It's not a one-time payment, and besides, the real profit out of five million dollars is less than two million dollars. β
Alex pretended to be poor in front of Chen Cao, but Chen Cao didn't believe a word.
"If you're really short on cash, I can lend it to you. β
Chen Cao wouldn't say that I sponsor you.
With the character of Alex.
Even if it was a polite word, she would beat the snake to the stick.
"No, if you really want to help me, then sponsor me. β
Sure enough, Chen Cao rolled his eyes.
"Let's go out for a bite to eat at noon, right?"
"Just go to your restaurant, I've heard your restaurant is very expensive. Alex looked at Chen Cao with a clean look.
If you can't cheat Chen Cao's big money, it's still okay to pay for a meal.
"Okay. Chen Cao shrugged his shoulders: "Seriously, are you really short of money?"
"Do you know how much this 1,000-square-meter floor rents a year? I'm starting to regret listening to you and moving my business to Los Angeles. β
Chen Cao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered.
Alex moved the law firm to Los Angeles.
Then her old connections, clients, and business in San Francisco will be gone.
Aside from the business she gave her, she was in Los Angeles and all her connections, clients, and business would start over.
Chen Cao wrote a check and handed it to Alex.
"I'll borrow you. β
To get back into business, that's going to take a lot of money.
Alex probably didn't run out of money.
I just don't want to use it for decoration.
But without a beautiful faΓ§ade, what will customers think when they come to the door?
Ordinary customers are counted.
If you are a wealthy client, you will not give your business to the law firm of Alex if the first impression is not good.
Alex glanced at the numbers on the check.
"When will it be returned?"
"Whatever you want. Chen Cao pursed his lips.
Alex suddenly tightened his collar: "You can't be trying to do anything to me, are you?"
"Give me back the check. Chen Cao said with a dark face.
"Okay, I'm free today, leave work early, let's go, go to your restaurant. β
"You're the boss yourself, and you have to pretend to get off work?"
Alex and Chen Cao arrive at Marina's Restaurant.
She was a little jealous of Chen Cao's restaurant.
I told Chen Cao several times that if you need to inject money, you should remember her.
Marina's restaurant business is just too good.
It's noon, and the restaurant is almost full.
And once it is night, there are more than a hundred queues.
Nameless liquor is served every day.
Although there is a limited amount of nameless wine.
Since Chen Cao got all the shares of Marina's restaurant.
Chen Cao serves nameless wine and some special ingredients to Marina's restaurant.
This has also led to a better business at Marina's restaurant than in the past.
Marina's Restaurant now has a daily turnover of millions of dollars at its peak.
When it is small, it is also hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Last month's turnover reached $18 million.
And the restaurant's net income alone, Chen Cao's income reached tens of millions of dollars.
No one disputes that Marina's is the most profitable restaurant in Los Angeles.
And Steven often comes here.
At every turn, he will do live publicity for Chen Cao's restaurant.
There are also many celebrities, just to be able to have a 'chance encounter' with Steven at Marina's restaurant, they also come to the restaurant every once in a while to spend.
Of course, it's more about the recipes and wines offered by Marina's Restaurant.
Truth be told, Marina's restaurant now earns as much as a medium-sized business.
The two of them sat by the window.
Alex doesn't know how to save money for Chen Cao at all, and the wine and food on a table are estimated to cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Chen Cao has never been so extravagant.
"Chen, don't you have a Michelin rating in this restaurant?"
"Yes, some time ago the Michelin Guide wanted to give Marina a a one-star label, but I didn't accept it. Chen Cao said disapprovingly.
"Why?"
"Does my restaurant need a tire seller to judge? Besides, I'm just a star, and I don't even look down on it. β
"The Michelin Guide never directly awards a new restaurant with a three-star logo, it is always a star-by-star promotion. β
"So I don't need it anymore. Chen Cao said indifferently: "My restaurant business is good enough, even the star rating of the Michelin Guide may not be able to bring me more income, why should I look at the face of the tire seller." β
Michelin star ratings are nothing more than Western standards.
If selling tires can really bring him money, Chen Cao doesn't mind hanging a Michelin-starred logo in the restaurant.
But with the current business of Marina's restaurant, she wants to increase her income.
The only way to do this is to raise the price, not the Michelin star mark.
And the one-star mark may actually reduce Chen's business.
