Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

"York, could I ask about your occupation?" Zhao Qin went back to the room to tidy up, then went downstairs again and got into York's car.

"Of course, I used to work on Wall Street, and now I work for Ying Ming Yu."

He didn't mention his profession, but everything that should be expressed was expressed. Zhao Qin also understood that no wonder this guy likes to take advantage. There are some good guys from Wall Street.

"Zhao, where do you want to play?"

"Whatever, it seems to be quite close to Hollywood."

"OK, let's take you to the Avenue of Stars. Then we can go to Universal Studios. In the afternoon we can go see Beverly Hills."

This name is very familiar, not to the mountain of course, but to Beverly Hills. Like the mid-level villas in Hong Kong City, it is a gathering place for the real rich.

“How much does a house in Beverly Hills cost?”

"Zhao, I can't answer your question because the price of each property in the villa is different."

"Do you understand the average price? You are still a financial person, York. As a person, you must know how to be flexible and not be so rigid."

"You're right, damn rigid. Sometimes I hate myself. Why should I be so sincere?

Zhao, you should know that in Wall Street, sincerity can never be enough. The reason why I did not become a top fund manager is the kindness buried in my heart. Oh, my God, I..."

Zhao Qin kept looking at his face. Wouldn't Americans blush?

Damn, this guy talks about himself so well, it always feels like he is giving a eulogy to himself.

"York, we're talking about Beverly Hills."

"Generally, it's around US$1. Of course there are better ones."

It’s not outrageously expensive. In a dozen years’ time, a 40-square-meter old house in our big capital city will still cost 500 million.

Buying a house of about 400 square meters is not only 400 million US dollars, but it converts to more than 3000 million. Fortunately, I can afford it, and my self-confidence has increased.

In fact, there is nothing interesting to see. The Avenue of Stars is just a street. Apart from the handprints and footprints of celebrities, there are also many cinemas and theaters. It is really not as good as Wangfujing Street.

Universal Studios is a bit like a Disney park. Of course, there are more buildings to visit and fewer games.

After leaving Universal Studios, it was lunch time, "Zhao, BOSS said that there is no upper limit on your daily meal expenses. Do you want to experience the revolving restaurant not far away?"

Looking at the eager look on this guy's face, I still don't understand that he wants to go.

"No, just find a restaurant."

For lunch, they had grilled salmon, battered shrimp, and some salads. Zhao Qin was disgusted with the lack of staple food, so he ordered a noodle soup, but was told by York that it was an appetizer before the meal.

I went to Beverly Hills in the afternoon and didn't really feel like there was much to see. However, from York's mouth, I heard the smell of copper and a strong tone of envy.

The next day, York took him to Santa Monica Beach. Seeing the golden sand and blue water, Zhao Qin finally felt a sense of intimacy.

Fishermen are also members of the sea creatures and cannot stay away from the sea for a long time.

"York, can you fish here?"

"Of course you can, but Zhao, you don't have a fishing license, and you can only fish the specified species of fish during the seasons and times specified by the local state government."

Zhao Qin was speechless.

Returning to the hotel in the evening, Yu Fake, who had been missing for two days, finally showed up and told him that things went smoothly here and he could leave for Silicon Valley tomorrow.

Los Angeles is nearly 600 kilometers away from Silicon Valley. York and another foreigner each drove a car.

"Originally I planned to take a plane, but I had no base there and no need for a car when I arrived, so I simply drove there." In the car, Yu Fake explained to Zhao Qin.

"It's also convenient to take a car. It only takes six or seven hours."

"I have something to do tomorrow. York will help you negotiate about your domain name."

York, who was driving, smiled and said, "Okay, Zhao, you are my boss for the next few days."

We set off early in the morning, found a place to stop at noon, and had a meal. We didn’t arrive in Silicon Valley until about four o’clock in the afternoon.

Although the feeling of Los Angeles to Zhao Qin is not related to shabby, the overall feeling is somewhat outdated, both in terms of infrastructure and buildings.

Silicon Valley is more like a new type of city, with not many tall buildings, giving people a very flat feeling.

After entering the hotel, Zhao Qin stayed in a standard room this time. Although the room was smaller than in Los Angeles, the overall facilities were much better.

It's not cheap either. He just paid special attention to the price at the front desk. It's more than 400 US dollars a night and more than 3000 yuan. It's too cheap.

After dinner, York came into his room, paper and pen in hand.

"Zhao, as your next agent, I think we should have a chat."

"Sit down, do you want some tea?"

"of course."

As soon as the water was boiled, Zhao Qin took out the tea he had brought with him from his suitcase and made himself and York a cup of tea each.

Americans like to add sugar to their tea, but York obviously has a certain understanding of Chinese customs. After taking a sip, he did not frown because of the bitterness. On the contrary, he praised the good tea.

"Both Budweiser and LCE Jewelry are interested in the domain name in your hand. I think you should know about Budweiser. After all, it has entered the Chinese market and I heard that its sales are pretty good.

lce jewelry is the largest online jewelry retailer in the United States. I checked and found that last year, their online sales were 29.4 billion U.S. dollars, and their profits were as high as 4.7 million U.S. dollars.

The current market value is approximately US$85 billion. "

Zhao Qin listened quietly. After York finished speaking, he asked: "York, how much do you think these two domain names can be sold for?"

York shrugged, "Zhao, the domain name is an intangible asset and does not have a reasonable market price. How much it can be sold mainly depends on how much the other party wants it, doesn't it?

However, there are precedents for domain name transactions, and I think the combined price of 1200 million is relatively reasonable. "

The valuation is 600 million each, which is not much different from mine.

Seeing that he didn't speak, York said again: "Of course, I will definitely offer a higher first price. Zhao, I am your client. The higher the negotiated price, the higher my bonus will be.

So our interests are tied together. Now I want to know, what is the base price in your mind? "

"If the domain name is sold, how much bonus can you get?" Zhao Qin asked without answering.

"1.5%." York didn't hide it either.

Not all of the five points Yu Fake wanted from Zhao Qin fell into his own pocket, because after all, the company here needs to operate, and the company here has an incentive mechanism from top to bottom.

After negotiating a business, there will be bonuses from top to bottom. It makes no sense for Yu Fake to help Zhao Qin and have to pay for the employee's bonus himself. This doesn't make sense.

"I can give you another 2%."

Upon hearing this, York's eyes lit up, "Generous Zhao, are every Chinese as generous as you? God, I think my biggest regret is that I was not born in that ancient and beautiful country..."

"Stop, it's only 2% more flattery."

York was not the least bit embarrassed and kept emphasizing that he was telling the truth.

"Okay, Zhao, I already feel that your demands will be very high, so tell me now and see if you can scare me."
