Great Power - Chapter 570
Although Zheng Jianguo has not replied to NASA’s offer, the vice president has long thought that as a member of Harvard Club, he would not have much problem if he wanted to get the money with his existing financing ability.
The two highway projects reported by Clark alone have reached a scale of US $4 billion. In addition, Zheng Jianguo has invested more than US $1 billion in fixed assets and cruise ships.
This is only within the scope of the United States. It is said that the goods also cost more than 300 million in Britain. This is definitely not the capital of the Republic. The country is poor. The money spent on the goods is splashing. I pity that I have to pay taxes less than one million a year——
pay taxes?
The vice president suddenly realized something. He quickly picked up the phone and dialed a number: “ask the tax bureau how much tax Zheng Jianguo paid and how much income he got? Let them get the information. ”
Put down the phone, the vice president began to get busy. After all, although Zheng Jianguo has become a leading figure in the major media in the United States and even around the world with the news of his marriage on the moon, work and eating melons are two different things.
Half an hour later, the vice president had more folders in front of him, so that he couldn’t help looking at the deputy director of IRS: “these are Zheng Jianguo’s tax declaration and tax payment records?”
The deputy director of the State Administration of Taxation in suits nodded quickly: “yes, for the whole year of last year, ASA accounting company was responsible for reporting. Its investment income in 1980 was about US $5.3 billion, which was paid according to the capital gains tax, of which the donation was tax-free -”
After the vice president opened the folder in his hand, he quickly browsed it. He had seen the materials including account opening, stock trading and transfer records. He found that the biggest income was to absorb enough oil company stocks at a low price, and then sell them for profit after returning to normal market value. He also understood why Harvard Club regarded him as a treasure.
Everyone wants to have a good relationship with such a friend?
Closing the information in his hand, the vice president looked up at the deputy director of the IRS, threw the document in the next basket and said, “thank you for coming. I’ll give this document to the president.”
The deputy director nodded and buttoned up his suit. Just when he turned to leave, he hesitated and said, “if you want to confirm whether he has $5 billion to the moon, I don’t think it’s a big problem for him. I heard that he has made a lot of money in this oil rise -”
Glancing at the other party’s ring finger, the vice president looked at the folder in front of him and said, “I didn’t seem to see the project about the oil contract before?”
With his eyebrows in his face, the deputy director replied, “after paying taxes last year, he turned the money out in the name of investment. I heard that the bubble on the other side of the island was what he did. It was said that he had lost more than 5 billion dollars. I don’t know if NASA knew what was the price.”
The brown eyes blinked. The vice president found that he had really wanted to be bad before. If someone said that he would not take it to heart. In front of him, he was the deputy director of the IRS and a member of the Harvard Club. Is this product going to sell well and reveal something to himself?
The idea flashed through his mind. The vice president nodded and said, “Oh, personally, would you think his trip to the moon was a honeymoon?”
The deputy director shook his head and said, “personally, if $5 billion is entered into the aerospace field, I believe it can generate 1.5 billion to 1.8 billion in taxes and drive 20 billion in GDP growth at the same time.
According to CBS, Zheng is a man of great hype. When he first came to the United States to face reporters, he promoted a wave of his own research, and he wanted to take Camille to the moon——
As for whether to get married or propose, I feel that when NASA gives an offer, it is no longer important. Whether they go or not has achieved the goal of global attention. ”
The vice president nodded and then said two words to send the people away. Of course, he knew the CBS report on Zheng Jianguo and that the deputy director was implicitly saying that we didn’t let him go. In fact, we helped him save the money. They had rubbed the heat of NASA.
However, the vice president also knew that this decision could not be made by himself. Sure enough, when Zheng Jianguo returned to Boston to accept the $5 billion offer to reporters, the president called: “considering the current situation, you can’t agree to the NASA deal.”
Of course, the vice president knew what the current situation was. After staring at the phone and organizing the language in his mind, he gently said, “I think NASA can study and restart the feasibility investigation of the Apollo program. Anyway, they are now engaged in the space shuttle. In 20 to 30 weeks, or 40 to 50 weeks, the popularity of public attention has decreased, so we can act according to our circumstances. ”
“Then do as you ask.”
When the voice on the phone came clearly, the vice president knew that the hat should be worn by himself. Immediately after hanging up the phone, he called NASA Robert. After arranging, he found that the TV station broadcast that night: “in order to earn Zheng’s 5 billion dollars, NASA announced that it had conducted a feasibility investigation on the restart of the Apollo program, It is expected to last about 20 weeks — ”
When the vice president looked at the report, Zheng Jianguo, who had recovered his status as a student at Harvard Medical School in Boston, heard the news from Andy only after the bell rang after class. Of course, this was also in his expectation: “didn’t you say to pay a deposit in advance?”
His eyes swept over the boastful arc of Lily Harvey beside Zheng Jianguo. Andy nodded and said, “no, Mr. John didn’t mention anything about money on his phone.”
Hearing that he didn’t ask for money, Zheng Jianguo felt that NASA was also a kind person and didn’t ask for money in advance to pay for restarting the feasibility investigation.
Of course, Zheng Jianguo also knows that behind this statement, it is likely that NASA has no intention to start the investigation at all. Therefore, since it has no intention to start, it will not involve relevant costs. Without costs, it will not be necessary for him to pay.
But whether it was started or not, Zheng Jianguo did not lose. It seemed impulsive for him to agree to Camille’s request at that time. However, after considering this period of time, he felt that he would not lose anyway.
For Camille, Zheng Jianguo has fulfilled her wish. Now it’s not his regret that he can’t go, but NASA doesn’t agree.
As for Zheng Jianguo, he wanted to go to the moon and become the first person to land on the moon in the Republic and the first person to marry on the moon in the world. This alone is enough to go down in history.
But in addition, Zheng Jianguo also wants to see if the Apollo program is a huge lie according to conspiracy theory.
In his last life, Zheng Jianguo never dreamed that he could have anything to do with the Apollo program. His memory has no memory of the program at all. The most is that he often talked about the American landing on the moon, or in the most difficult era.
However, in his life, especially since he returned home last time, he was touched by Camille’s statement that he wanted to go to the moon to get married. After Zheng Jianguo came back, he went to the archives to find information about the plan.
From newspapers to program videos and the world’s top club composed of 1 woman and 11 men – a club composed of people who have walked on the moon, which is a small circle that can’t be higher until he was reborn in his last life.
Have you ever walked on the moon?
Of course, when the Apollo program was in full swing, discordant notes came out, and people constantly exposed that the project was actually a scam, trying to deceive the world and the Soviet Union.
Even, some people wrote a book and asked various questions to support their views. They said that the Apollo program was actually shot on a deserted Gobi in the United States, and they also built a special film studio – similar to the plot in the Star Wars picture.
It’s just that this is not a big obstacle for Zheng Jianguo. There is no information in his memory that American landing on the moon is bullshit. You know, at that time, the Republic had collected lunar soil for comparison, but it’s a pity that Chinese people haven’t set foot on the moon.
Whenever Zheng Jianguo thinks about this, his wild thoughts will come out. In terms of the sweet relationship between China and the United States in the next ten years, if he can’t land on the moon again, he won’t think about it in his life.
As the dream was revised again, Zheng Jianguo felt that the Nobel Prize was just that. There were at least hundreds of Nobel prizes?
But how many scientists went to the moon? Even if all the 12 are, there are only 12!
However, in fact, the vast majority of these 12 people are soldiers who receive less than $20000 a year from NASA according to their ranks.
By this time in 1981, some people had retired, some were in business, some became painters, some changed to religion, but none of them had made achievements in academia.
For academic research, Zheng Jianguo has planned not to dig holes in the future. Even if he makes any more discoveries, he must keep them for his children. Now these are enough to establish his position in various research fields. The rest will keep this lead until the follow-up news from NASA comes.
So Zheng Jianguo looked at Andy and said, “is there any news?”
Nodding, Andy said, “there are two more. Professor Fisher said that this year’s solid state physics conference will be held on the 26th and 27th of the end of the month, so you can make arrangements in advance. Professor Ye minde said that Sir Sir invited you to attend the 14th European bioscience Federation conference.”
After saying that, Andy turned and left. It was the first break of two big classes in the morning. Zheng Jianguo looked back at Lily Harvey, who was wearing a tight sweater and outlined the upper circumference in a good arc shape. He couldn’t help feeling: “how time flies -”
Lily Harvey, with light makeup, stroked her hair around her ears, smiled with a feminine smile on her delicate face, and said, “you didn’t have classes for a few days, plus you’re so busy, you must feel fast. I’m afraid you can’t come for a few days after these two meetings.”
Lily’s blue eyes didn’t hide the teasing meaning at all. Zheng Jianguo knew that she was still implicit. Since the report that he was going to spend 5 billion to take Camille to the moon to get married was published in the newspaper, by now he was the world’s number one diamond Zheng Xiaowu.
I believe that with NASA’s reply, his name will kill another wave of headlines in major media around the world, and those who think they are beautiful will come together.
Unfortunately, none of them came with an HIV test report——
I don’t know whether he was teased by lily Harvey, who breathed out like LAN, or whether it was the season when the weather was getting warmer, or whether Zheng Jianguo, who had not tasted meat for a long time, felt the opposite sex next to him. Was he ready to move in his heart, or couldn’t help opening his mouth: “the child infected with unknown virus you said last time, Did you find out the cause of the infection? ”
“No.”
After keenly catching the strange flash in Zheng Jianguo’s eyes, Lily Harvey felt that the self-control of the goods was too strong. Her eyes clearly revealed aggression, but she could still control it – isn’t the goods gay?
The thought flashed through her mind again. Lily Harvey saw Zheng Jianguo turn around and point to the direction of the corridor exit. As usual, she threw down a sentence and disappeared in front of her eyes. The depression in her heart rose again: “is this guy really gay?”
“Looks like you failed again?”
When Lily Harvey looked at the direction of the corridor exit depressed, a tall and mature woman appeared next to her. When she looked down her eyes, her mouth was not idle: “do you think he only likes Camille’s age?”
As soon as her blue eyes lit up, Lily Harvey turned and looked at Sheila in front of her. This is clarite Sheila, her classmate at Johns Hopkins Medical School. One is in Boston Children’s Hospital and the other is in Boston City hospital.
The two were good in medical school. After their internship in Boston, they also rented together. The relationship has changed from classmates in school to girlfriends.
Therefore, Lily Harvey did not hide her ambition for Zheng Jianguo: “Catherine is 3 years older than him and doesn’t look like 15 or 16 years old. There must be other reasons -”
After looking at some annoyed girlfriends, roommates and classmates, Sheila blinked and hugged her two arms: “I think you talked well before. Why did he suddenly leave?”
The blue eyes on her delicate cheeks turned white eyes. Lily Harvey shook her head and said, “previously, I was ready to enter the state. I complimented him that he could attend those academic conferences. Then he asked me about the last child infected with an unknown virus and the condition of a patient I talked to him about before. He asked me if I had found the cause of the infection –”
Lily Harvey, as like as two peas, complained, and remembered that Zheng Jianguo had been talking about it several times before, and he left after he had said no, and it was exactly the same as today.
Then the question obviously appeared in his answer. He didn’t find the reason why the child was infected with the unknown virus!
Some of Lily Harvey, who understood it, gave a completely different answer to Zheng Jianguo when she talked about this topic again a few days later: “I’m going to use the exclusion method to study his etiology when I go back.”
