America's Big Hero

With a five-year lease contract, renovation, and company presence, it was not difficult to apply for a small amount of loan. The loan procedures were completed on the same day, and on the 17th, the loan of [-] US dollars appeared in Sean's account.

With the [-] dollars, Sean didn't immediately go to the fitness equipment supplier he had contacted. Instead, he found Lamb Wiley, a member of the New York branch of PricewaterhouseCoopers.

At this time, PricewaterhouseCoopers had not yet merged with WaterhouseCoopers, but it was still two separate accounting firms.

And accounting firms are not just helping people calculate accounts. Their business scope is extremely wide, including assurance and corporate consulting services, including financial statement auditing, oil, stock, and bond value analysis, global expansion and privatization, and internal control services. , internal audit services, risk management, outsourcing services and more.

Others also undertake, business process outsourcing, financial consulting, corporate restructuring, tangible and intangible asset evaluation, company value consulting services, global human resources consulting support and solutions, company technology, organization, business plan design and transformation consulting services.

After Lamb Wiley had seen a series of contracts for 'Shawn's Fitness', Sean said: "Shawn's Fitness is Newark's largest, most advanced, and most comprehensive health club, and it can be done in a month During the renovation period, we will recruit and do pre-sale activities, and at the same time as the opening, there will be a large number of customers applying for cards here."

Hearing this, Lamb Willie frowned slightly. He didn't know who Sean was, but only knew that his surname was Rockefeller, but this tone was a bit too loud, no one can guarantee that a business will definitely make money.

"When the cost is recovered in the first month, it will expand to Jersey City. In the next six months, Sean Fitness will become the largest chain fitness club in New Jersey."

"Wait, sir, are you sure your gym will attract a lot of customers?" Lamb Willie frowned slightly, with such confidence, unless it was...

Chapter 38: A Genius Idea

Sean took out a pack of cigarettes, flicked the pack lightly, pulled out a cigarette and lit it with his head down. While lighting the cigarette, he said: "Of course, the premise is that the sales management team is in place. It can't look too simple. You are right." !"

"I see!" Lamb Willie suddenly realized that it was money laundering, which is not surprising at all. As an accounting firm, they should not do too much of this.

"So, I need Mr. Lamb to do two things for me. First, help me pay taxes legally, and second, help me legally avoid taxes." Sean emphasized the word legal.

"I understand, it's not difficult." Lamb Willie smiled and said he understood, "If the source of customers is sufficient, we can actually be more radical. Instead of opening a new fitness club, it is better to use acquisitions and mergers. Through overseas financing, venture capital, etc., the scale can be scaled up faster."

Sean took a deep look at Lamb Willie, damn it, these guys who play with the law are so ruthless!

"I think you've misunderstood. The fitness club also has to consider making a profit. I'm going to continue to operate it as a brand, and I don't have the idea of ​​selling it in the short term. That's too rude."

"Okay, it's up to you, so now we need you to come up with a reasonable and legal plan?" Lamb Wiley shrugged, he wanted to be rough, that kind of capital operation would generate higher returns, The commission he can get is also higher.

"Yes, at the same time, help me find a good management team." Sean raised his hand and tapped his temple, and Lamb Willie instantly understood.

"That's it, I wish us a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

Five days later, on October 10, a five-person management team arrived in Newark, headed by Sheila Roseburn, a brown-haired, fit and capable woman in her thirties.

Sean met their group at the construction site being renovated, "Hello, Miss Sheila."

"Hi, Mr. Sean, nice to meet you, I'm not that young." Sheila had a smile on her face, and her little finger scratched Sean's palm when shaking hands. It was hard not to let her look like this Some thoughts outside of work.

"You are full of youthful breath, you look like a girl who is still in college."

"You can really talk." Sheila giggled.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Sean finally talked about his plan, "Do you know what 'pre-sale' is?"

Sheila and the others looked at each other and shook their heads.

"This is how I define pre-sale." In later generations, pre-sale as a sales method has become very mature, Xiao En explained to several people: "Pre-sale is divided into two parts: promotion and negotiation."

"Ground push means that we recruit some people with strong expressive skills, distribute our decoration renderings and leaflets on the street, and introduce our products to the other party. If you are interested, you can leave the other party's phone number."

"Because it has not opened yet, it is an advance sale, so there will be great discounts, such as $50 off 200, as long as you pay $50, you can use the $50 payment when you apply for a membership card at the opening. 200 cash deduction from the bill is a big discount plan, of course, you should set a reasonable range for the specific amount yourself."

"During this period, we can invite people who have left a phone call or paid a fee, in the morning and in the afternoon, to do exercises together in parks, squares, aerobics or other things, which can not only increase affinity and stickiness, but also achieve Promotion can gain more trust, and during the period, you can find newspapers or the like to repay, and make a bit of a sensation."

"On the day of the opening, we invited all the guests who paid the money to visit the site, explain and demonstrate their strength. The more people there are, the easier it is to form a collective effect. And, on the first day, I will bring you 300 people to apply for membership. Card, when you start rushing to pay, as long as your brain is not eaten by zombies, it will be easy for everyone to make impulsive consumption. We can not only push half-year membership cards, one-year membership cards, but also Promote small class classes, yoga, private education, etc.”

"Do you understand what I mean?"

"Oh my god, what a genius idea, you redefine a brand new sales link and greatly advance the time of profit acquisition. This operation can definitely be used in classrooms, and it is one of the best examples in business schools!" Sheila Rose Bourne exclaimed, and looked at Sean with admiration in his eyes besides desire, which was the recognition of his work ability and mind.

If she only longed for Sean's body before, now... she is hungry.

Sheila Roseburn was recruited by PwC to lead the team because she has been in this industry for seven or eight years, and her results are very good, but she is still relatively 'primitive' in terms of promotion and sales methods.

There is a method of distributing leaflets, but it is only a simple way, very crude, at least very primitive compared to the various methods of later generations.

She clearly knew that if everything went according to Sean's plan, then Sheila Rosebone would become famous, and the benefits would be immeasurable.

This brand new sales model can be applied in too many industries, perhaps, this model can be defined as 'Sheila model'.

Well, put Sean's name on the back at most, Sheila Sean mode!

After all, it must be yourself who actually operates.

Driven by the creation of a brand new sales model, Sheila Rosebone burst out with great enthusiasm and dragged Sean into the hotel room that day...

Nothing else, just stay up late to do sales planning.

The idea was put forward by Sean, and many conceptual and framework things need to be given by Sean, so..., work, that's it.

Until the next day, Sean reopened another room...

Useful knowledge added!

Yes, it is the business scope of the fitness club.

Ever since he was reborn, Sean discovered that his resilience was abnormal, and it only took a week for the wound on the back of his head to recover.

And Sheila Rosebone in the room had another feeling.

This man is not only handsome, but also has a good mind, is rich, and has ideas!

Yes, we are talking about enthusiasm for work!

Worked all night, still in good spirits in the morning...

Chapter 39: Expanding Security Forces

The fitness club was busy with renovations, and the Sheila team was busy recruiting more ground pushers and training, so Sean turned his attention back to his main business.

Of course, there are a few things to sort out before that happens.

First, arrange for Jonas to set up his own family, the Jonas Family.

At present, the rights to the underground world in Newark, including the surrounding areas, are vacant. This state cannot continue. Once it is vacant for a long time, it will inevitably arouse the ambitions of the people below. At that time, it will inevitably set off a round of fighting, which will be very bad for public security A devastating blow.

Neither the Newark Police Department nor the Jersey City Police Department will allow this.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to establish a pyramid structure of underground forces in nearby areas at the peak state of deterrence and stabilize the local situation.

It's not that Sean has taken a fancy to the three melons and two dates of money, but he has to do it. To be honest, the contribution to local law and order will not be smaller than that of the police, but the reputation will definitely not be better than that of the police.

At least in Xiao En's opinion, this is a thankless task, but for the safety of the people and the stability of the society, he has to do it!

At the meeting, Yuri and Bill looked at Xiao En's attitude of serving the country and the people, and they really wanted to hit someone.

Moreover, the establishment of a family is not that simple, power structure, staffing, there are many things, the most important thing is not to get involved with the police or Fobole's undercover...

As the head of the family, Jonas selected two people from the ten-person team to join the family as the captain of the action team, responsible for displaying force, and recruiting some peripheral members from the original Sierramanga, basically able to handle it, after all, Sean would not let them touch Poison.

The problem now is that the action team is understaffed, and neither is Sean's own team.

It is necessary to absorb a group of veterans from that period, but there are not many people who left their contact information at the beginning. Yuri proposed to contact their original company executive officer Demps Tuttle, "But Demps Si should be the first lieutenant now, and it should be easy for him to find information."

(PS: The second lieutenant in the U.S. military is called second lieutenant. The meaning of second lieutenant is generally the secretary and company executive officer, which means the meaning of the company below the officer. It is hard-translated into platoon leader for the convenience of comparison, and the lieutenant is the first lieutenant first lieutenant , mostly serving as civilians, mainly assisting captains in military staff, command and dispatch, secretary logistics, etc.)

"Still at Fort Buchanan Army Base?"

"It should be, after all, the war has only ended for more than a year."

"Okay, let's find a way to get in touch. Let's take a trip to Puerto Rico." Sean thought for a while and then made up his mind to go. On the one hand, he wanted to meet the key point of his old boss. On the other hand, he also wanted to use Temple The Sri Lankan relationship re-established the military relationship.

If successful, it will play a big role in the plan in his heart.

On October 10, after Sean reconnected with Dempsey, he took Bill and Yuri and flew straight to the British Virgin Islands by plane.

This tax-free paradise is not far from Puerto Rico, and it is very convenient to rent a yacht from here to Fort Buchanan. Most importantly, Puerto Rico is rich in supermodels.

Yachts, young models, just treat yourself as a holiday to reward yourself. In foreign countries, the IRS doesn't care how he spends money.

On November 11rd, the three of Sean stood on the pier. Not long after, a military Humvee drove towards them. When it stopped, a tall man in casual clothes got out of the car.

"Crack!" Seeing the old boss Jonas, the three of them gave a military salute.

"Hahaha, it seems that you haven't forgotten your life in the military." Dempsey laughed and walked up to give the three of them a hug.

Demps originally had more than 30 people under him, and more than half of them have retired. This is the first time anyone has come back to see him, and he is very happy.

His level, to be honest, is a bit low, and he has no power in his hands. Even if he retires, it will be the same. He still needs the PaYs project to arrange work for him.

The PaYs program, which stands for Military Partnerships for Young People to Succeed, is a partnership agreement between the military and private industry that will ensure that retired military officers, military officers, military officers, are guaranteed interviews after completing military business, And potentially get a job.

"Let's go, let's go over there and have a chat." Under the leadership of Sean, a group of people arrived at the pier, looking at the 60-meter-long Larson yacht, Dempsey couldn't help but "wow" Exhale.

"I didn't expect it. It's only been more than a year. You kid got rich so quickly." Stepping onto the yacht, Dempsey couldn't help but envy.

"It's okay, everyone is helping." Sean said with a smile.

A few models in bikinis came up with fruit plates and drinks. Dempsey's eyes were fixed on the spot, his eyes fixed on him, and he opened his mouth, "It's so big, oh no, it's so white."

The three of Sean looked at each other, and then said with a smile: "Driving all the way here, you must be tired too, why don't you go to sea and rest for a while."

"Ah? These..." Dempsey was taken aback, pointing at the women, his blue eyes forced a green light.

"Please." Sean made a gesture of invitation, since the two he used were not here anyway.

As for Bill and Yuri, they definitely don't mind being like-minded with their old superiors.

Dempsey laughed and rushed forward to grab the two young models. He was not embarrassed at all. We had been together for the past few years, and everyone knew the virtues in the barracks very well.

The yacht sailed away from the pier. Half an hour later, Dempsey came out refreshed. After holding back for a long time, three rounds were fired.

Sitting down again, Sean talked about the purpose of coming this time (a platoon of the US military has about 30-40 people).

"Are you panning for drugs?" When Dempsey heard that Sean wanted to ask someone from the army to help, and then thought of the yacht under his buttocks and the beauties just now, the first thing that came to his mind was the business of panning out drugs.

"No, the risk of drug abuse is a bit high. I'm in the business of smuggling high-end alcoholic beverages." Sean said half-truthfully.

Dempsey showed a disappointed expression. If it was a drug business, he really wanted to participate in it. It is also a traditional art for the US military to help with transportation.

"It's not difficult to find someone. I have all the information here. Moreover, a group of people have retired this year. It should not be a problem to meet your needs. Moreover, PaYs is also annoying. The work of those warrant officers is not easy to arrange. I can help You set up a line for them." Dempsey is now in charge of this aspect of the work, just right.

Sean smiled immediately, picked up a paper bag from the side, put it in front of Dempsey, and made a gesture of invitation.

Dempsey's heart beat a few times, and he reached out to open the paper bag, which contained stacks of dollar bills.

Sean was very considerate, and all he prepared were old bills, in denominations of $20, a total of $[-].

In 1984, the per capita income in the United States was only 1.7 US dollars, and 5 US dollars was a lot of money for Dempsey!

Chapter 40: I, Sean, lost!

It is not worth $50000 just to help find some information and lead a line, even if it is dirty dirty money.

First, Sean wanted to tie Dempsey to lay the foundation for the follow-up, and he also asked him to help contact a batch of armaments.

It's easy to talk about guns, Sean has no shortage, what he lacks is the kind of military equipment that is not allowed to be used by civilians, not only weapons, but also some military equipment.

For example, for bulletproof vests, it is okay to sell guns, but it is illegal to sell bulletproof vests. That is to say, it is okay to kill people, but the fear is that they cannot be killed...

Of course, there are many other military supplies.

Sean didn't plan to take it from Dempsey, as the risk of smuggling was too great. He was going to ask Dempsey to contact his classmates at the military academy and get the goods directly in China.

This is not a problem at all, Dempsey agreed immediately.

After chatting on the yacht for a while, Sean sent him back. Dempsey was on leave, so it was inconvenient for him to come out for too long.

On November 11th, as soon as he came back, Sean took the information and called those comrades in person. They were just a group of big soldiers, but there was no PaYs project team to arrange work for the big soldiers.

After retiring, few had a good life. Coupled with the war syndrome, Xiao En called and most of them were willing to join him. The team expanded from the original 10 people to 30 people, and the combat power jumped dramatically. .

……

This side has expanded manpower, and Sheila has also started to promote in Newark. The renderings printed on coated paper are exquisite, and the promotional leaflets have changed from the simple style of the past. The production is as beautiful as a magazine. Pushing the ground on the street, the effect is surprisingly good.

The group outdoor fitness activities held four times a week also attracted a lot of attention. In addition, Sean paid for newspaper soft articles to promote it. The largest and most professional fitness club in Newark and even the surrounding area, 'Shawn Fitness Club' became famous I just got up, and I can receive dozens of deposits every day. If it continues, the amount of deposits will definitely exceed a thousand when it opens.

These are customers with strong intentions, and the probability of getting it is very high. If the annual card is set at 1200 US dollars, you can get 200 after removing the 1000 deductible. Even if you only get 800 annual card members, the pre-sale turnover can reach 80. This is not counting small class classes, private education classes and other subdivisions.

There is not so much investment in the entire store!

That is to say, within three days of the opening, it has already returned its capital and made money. Under such expectations, Sheila's enthusiasm was extremely high, and she dragged Sean to talk about work for another night.

Sean also privately used money to find reporters for a wave of soft-text publicity, adding to the flames.
