America's Road to Fame

Chapter 157 Long Island Manor
When they walked out of the building, they could see that not far from the seaside, there was an independent wooden reception room. This is a separate wooden small room covering an area of ​​about 400 square meters. guests, you can do it here.

Seeing this, Fan Bingbing sighed inwardly, just this small wooden house is already bigger than most people's houses, it really is the evil capitalism.

"Wow, William, there is a lake over there, does this also belong to the manor?"

Seeing the courtyard behind the villa next to a huge artificial lake, Fan Bingbing couldn't help asking the agent beside him.

"Yes, ma'am, this artificial lake is included in the manor."

After the intermediary answered Fan Bingbing's question, he pointed to the sea in the distance and said:
"You can see that there are piers over there. There are three piers in this manor, the largest of which can dock medium and large yachts after special dredging."

After her reminder, William Chen thought of the "Eclipse" that Abu had seen before, and he realized that he should also buy such a yacht, and it didn't need to be as big as Abu's, but At least it can't be too bad.

William Chen and Fan Bingbing have visited the entire manor for two hours. According to the introduction of the agent, the price of this manor was 6000 million US dollars before, but now because the owner is in urgent need of funds and the price of the house has fallen, it only needs $4000 million can be won, plus three years of housekeeping services.

This price reduction is already very large for high-end real estate.

The daily expenses of this kind of manor are also expensive. It can be said that money is used everywhere. Such a big manor needs a housekeeper, maid, cook, plus bodyguards and drivers.And the entire garden also needs to be taken care of regularly, and there are specialized housekeeping companies that are responsible for serving these super rich people.

There are many rich people in the United States, and there are more companies serving them.As long as you have money, you can choose all young and beautiful maids, and they are all trained since childhood, with high security.

You can even customize according to the requirements of those companies, whether you want white, mixed race, or yellow race, as long as you make a request, the other party will definitely be able to meet it.Of course, it’s not that kind of illegal way. Next to the United States, the whole of South America is a place where beauties are produced. Some of them are farther away, like Eastern Europe. They hope that their children can come to the United States to serve the rich, so as to earn money. Take wealth that can improve the life of the family.

In order to meet the needs of the rich, these companies can even go to the local area to hold a beauty pageant for you, and then send the winner to your home after professional training as a maid to serve you.

In many third world countries, the endless beauty pageants are mostly held for this purpose.

These things are all on the bright side, completely legal, and there is no coercion. After all, those girls can be proud of being able to serve the super rich. Compared with their poor lives in their hometown, coming here is like It was like heaven.

Most importantly, because those girls generally do not receive much education and have limited knowledge, if they are hired by rich people for a long time, then their loyalty will be very high, unlike those who are old and serve many rich people The old fritters who have been there are well-informed and thoughtful.

Therefore, William Chen felt very satisfied after seeing this manor. Moreover, such a large manor is not far from New York. Here, it is less than 60 kilometers away from Manhattan. It takes more than an hour to drive faster. .If a helicopter is purchased in the future, it will be faster and can be parked directly on the apron on the roof of the Trump headquarters building.

Besides, the price of 4000 million US dollars is already very good, after all, it covers an area here.So Chen Weilian immediately said to buy here, which made the intermediary laugh. Sure enough, such a super rich customer, the transaction is straightforward.

It's just that it's not possible to move in here for the time being. After the formalities are completed, the housekeeping salary will be cleaned up, and then some daily necessities will be purchased. It's not troublesome.

William Chen then took Fan Bingbing to the villa he had rented on Long Island, where the chef had already prepared a sumptuous dinner for him.

"I don't know if it suits your taste. I know you are from Lu Province. It's not so easy to find Lu cuisine masters here. Try it and see if these dishes are authentic."

Entering the room, feeling a burst of warmth, Fan Bingbing took off his coat and put it on the hanger. At this time, he was wearing a white sweater and black leggings, a simple match, but on her, it looked extraordinarily grace.

She walked to the dining table and looked at the dishes on the table, which were all traditional dishes of Shandong cuisine, including braised prawns in oil, sweet and sour carp, and sliced ​​hibiscus chicken. When she saw Jiuzhuan Dachang, she smiled With a smile, he said to William Chen:

"Isn't it true that Americans are not used to eating offal?"

"That's other Americans. You forgot, I'm also Chinese. I like to eat this Jiuzhuan large intestine very much. I will snatch it from you later."

"Well, it's more delicious if you rush to eat it, but with such a big dinner, I guess I'm going to gain weight again. You don't know, I have a fat-prone physique."

Haha, Fan Xiaopang, I understand this.

At the end of the meal, the two of them still had a good time eating. After eating, Fan Bingbing even took the initiative to help him wash the dishes.

"No need, just put it there, and a special person will come to deal with it then."

William Chen put the tableware into the sink with her and said to her.

"It seems like capitalism, you don't have to do anything yourself."

Fan Bingbing was talking, and after washing his hands, he turned around and met William Chen's gaze. Feeling the heat in his eyes, he became flustered for a moment.

In fact, since she came to find William Chen, some things have become self-evident.

So things develop naturally.Listening to her teasing, William Chen didn't say anything, but stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.

At first, Fan Bingbing put his hand on William Chen's chest, and he could feel the muscles he explained. When William Chen lowered his head and kissed her lips, she gradually lowered her hand and put her arms around William's waist.

Then, amidst Fan Bingbing's exclamation, William Chen picked her up lazily and walked towards the bedroom...

This night is still very long.

……

"Now I believe your figure in that video is real."

In the morning, William Chen came back from exercising and took a shower. At this time, Fan Bingbing also woke up. She looked at William Chen and said.

"Oh? The video of "Magic Mike"? You've seen it too."

"That's right. When I came to the United States, many people here are talking about this. The movie will be released soon."

"Yes, it's scheduled for Christmas, and it will be released soon. If you can stay here for a few more days, you can still watch it."

"I'm afraid that won't work. I've pushed a lot of arrangements."

Fan Bingbing said helplessly.

She will be able to stay in the United States for at most one day, and will leave for the country tomorrow.

Chen William originally wanted to spend a day with her today, but she refused. She said that she still wanted to stay with him and see how he usually works.

So after dinner, William Chen came to New York with Fan Bingbing, met Goldman Sachs' Camillo Hagen, and reported the progress of the acquisition to him.

"Mr. William, now the acquisition of Marvel has been basically confirmed. We have reached an agreement with almost all shareholders. It seems that they are also very anxious, so some things are going well."

"The final purchase price is determined to be Marvel's overall valuation of 20 billion US dollars, but Marvel's management requires at least another 2 million US dollars to be injected into the company for daily operations and maintenance, as well as additional investment in two films. In addition , Of Marvel’s $10 billion in debt, $2 million is an emergency high-interest loan, with an age as high as 15%, so we also recommend giving priority to repaying this part of the loan to reduce the company’s operating pressure.”

William Chen nodded and said, "That's fine, sign the contract as soon as possible. Also, how about Netflix?"

"From our contacts with institutions that hold Netflix shares, the situation of many funds is not good. They are also willing to sell Netflix shares, but the price needs to be discussed. Although the current stock price of Netflix is ​​between 10-11 The U.S. dollar is hovering, but at this price, those institutions will definitely not be willing to sell, because they can also see that Netflix is ​​far undervalued at the current stock price."

"I understand that, Mr. Hagen. What's their asking price?"

"To sum up, if the price can be raised to more than 23 US dollars, then these institutions can accept it, because this price has already allowed them to make profits in their investment in Netflix, and it is beneficial to them when reflected in the net value of the fund. .”
