The Day I Checked In In the City - Chapter 407
As the doorbell rang softly, Li Xu pushed open the glass door of the convenience store and stepped inside.
The so-called convenience store is also a supermarket, which is a place for free shopping.
There was a cash register at the door, and there was a white girl collecting money there.
Looking up, in the huge store, there are a few scattered customers shopping there, and two employees in supermarket vests are sorting out the goods.
Li Xu walked into the supermarket, found a staff member who was carrying goods, and asked, “Is the manager here?”
The staff member was a middle-aged black man. Hearing the words, he looked over and replied, “We don’t have a manager here. If you have anything, you can ask Thomas.”
“Thomas? Well, can you help me get in touch with him then?”
“sure!”
“Thomas! Come here!”
Just when Li Xu thought he would make a phone call or go look for it, the guy shouted at the top of his voice.
“Someone looking for you!”
Li Xu’s ears hurt from the shock, good guy, it’s a pity not to practice the lion’s roar.
Although the form is not very beautiful, the effect is still good, and soon a white man walks out.
“Thomas? I’m Li, the new owner of this shop!”
Li Xu didn’t beat around the bush, and directly stated his identity.
When the white man heard this, he immediately smiled and said, “Hello, I’m Thomas, the salesperson here.”
Hearing that this Asian is the boss, the old black was stunned for a moment, and then continued to do his own business as if nothing had happened.
Then Li Xu followed Thomas into the back lounge and introduced the situation of the convenience store.
No debt, no disputes, normal business transfer.
Li Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
“Boss, since you are here, you should hire a manager.”
“I think you did a good job.” Li Xu said in surprise, and some people didn’t want to be an official.
“No, I know that my energy is limited, and this is not the way of life I like.” Thomas obviously had a different idea from Li Xu.
“are you serious?”
“Yes!”
“Okay then!” Li Xu felt a little big headed. For those companies that were rewarded in the past, except for those who made mistakes, Li Xu usually let the previous leaders continue to serve concurrently. This is the first time that he doesn’t want to do it!
But he doesn’t have anyone he knows, where can he find a suitable candidate?
Looking for a headhunter?
Please, it’s just a convenience store!
acquaintance?
Li Xu thought of a person, George. Although he didn’t know him very well, at least he got along a few times and he was quite chatty.
With an idea in mind, Li Xu walked around the convenience store, greeted the staff, and left.
Back in the car, he called George.
When George heard this, his expression was a little surprised and a little surprised.
“Here, Li, what do you want me to say, thank you.”
“This is my trust in you! Dude, I think you are the right person!” Li Xu said half-truths, it’s just a convenience store, he doesn’t care how much money he makes, as long as the store is his.
“I’ll do my job.” George was very happy.
He doesn’t make much money working in a logistics company, and if he has a job as a convenience store manager, he can give Annabelle better living conditions.
Mary came out of Annabelle’s room. Seeing her husband’s excited appearance, she asked curiously, “What’s the matter, dear?”
George walked over, bowed his head, kissed his wife, and said, “Lee asked me to be the manager of his convenience store! Oh, that’s incredible.”
Mary listened, but her expression was not much surprised, and smiled: “Well, he doesn’t look like an ordinary school employee, which is not surprising. My George, I have always believed in you!”
George looked at his daughter-in-law’s graceful figure and couldn’t help but hugged her in his arms again.
…
Li Xu’s casual operation is enough to affect the lives of some ordinary people.
The next day, Li Xu first went to the school to report a course, and then drove to the airport.
He had signed up for a stake in a biopharmaceutical company in Ohio before, and Li Xu planned to go take a look.
This Ohio state is still west of Pennsylvania, and it’s a bit too far to drive there.
It’s more comfortable to fly.
And the back and forth time is also fast, so that he will not delay his party at noon tomorrow!
Li Xu is still relatively unfamiliar with foreign planes.
Looking up, the quality of the flight attendants is somewhat uneven, far from the domestic selection.
But Li Xu didn’t care about this, he was ready to be an ascetic for a while.
Although the flight attendant is not very good, it is still necessary to sign in. After all, the private jet has not yet been found!
“Sign in!”
“Sign in successfully, congratulations to the host for getting a chance to experience the journey in a luxury private jet, please contact the relevant aircraft manufacturer.”
experience?
Li Xu felt that he had a long way to go before signing a plane, and he might have to pay for it later on himself.
After signing it once, Li Xu was too lazy to sign again.
It was a bit embarrassing to actually sign.
He just wants a private jet, why is it so difficult?
The plane slid through the clouds and soon landed at the Ohio airport.
According to the information given by the system, Li Xu took a taxi to the biopharmaceutical company.
Different from the imagined broken company, this company is actually built in a good way.
The two black brothers at the door stared at the crowd in full armor, with a feeling that they would shoot biubiu if they disagreed.
I don’t know if they are real guys.
“Dude, this is the Sun God Company, what’s the matter with you?” Old Hei saw Li Xu’s raw face, and he was still Asian, his expression was a little wary.
Li Xu did not dare to take risks, and honestly registered the information and the reason for the visit.
When Lao Hei saw that he was a shareholder, his attitude changed immediately, and he immediately called and contacted the senior management of the company.
After a while, I saw two white men in suits and leather shoes sitting on a weird-looking electric vehicle, rushing over.
“Mr. Li, you are welcome.”
The two sides briefly introduced themselves.
Both men were top executives of the company, Billy and Nelson.
“Is Mr. Anderson there?”
Li Xu asked, this Anderson is the company’s major shareholder, accounting for 65%.
The remaining five percent is owned by some employees.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Mr. Anderson is not at the company.”
Li Xu nodded, he just came to visit, don’t let the system take it into the pit again.
So under the leadership of Billy and Nielsen, Li Xu also got on a strange electric car and entered the company’s factory.
The production line is very tall, and the processing equipment of the mechanized assembly line abounds.
There are more advanced R&D laboratories.
It felt like the system should have given itself a great company share.
Li Xu was quite satisfied.
After shopping for more than half an hour, an unfamiliar mobile phone number called Li Xu.
When he connected, it turned out to be the phone number of the company’s major shareholder, Anderson.
He asked Li Xu to wait, and half an hour later, he came over.
After hanging up, Li Xu followed the two to the office, drinking coffee while waiting for Anderson to come.
More than twenty minutes later, Anderson walked in with a slender woman.
Anderson looked about forty or fifty years old, and walked with a certain posture.
The two got up and shook hands, then sat down in the office.
Billy and Nelson left here wisely.
On the contrary, the woman had been standing silently behind Anderson.
Li Xu was a little puzzled about the purpose of this meeting, and before he could test it, Anderson bluntly named his intentions.
He wants to sell the company, including the shares held by Li Xu.
Li Xu was quite surprised, my dear, you are ready to package up the company and sell it before you get the shares.
“It’s too sudden, I think you didn’t seem to mention this when I bought the shares.”
Li Xu’s expression became serious.
The system gave it to the system, but it didn’t mean he didn’t take it seriously.
“I’m sorry!” Anderson looked at the woman behind him.
Then talk about things in general.
The plot is very simple. Anderson’s shares are locked up by the investment company behind him, and there is no way if he doesn’t sell it.
The shares of Li Xu belonged to another founder, and this person sold it decisively after seeing the company’s situation.
Li Xu frowned after hearing this. In this case, either he would not sell it, and would operate with the investment company in the future, and then his shares would be gradually eroded.
Either sell it now and make a fortune.
Hey, it seems that the system is equivalent to giving yourself money in disguise!
“Let me think about it!”
Li Xu did not immediately agree.
He didn’t know anything about the investment company behind Anderson, and he planned to slow down and ask for more interest.
Capital is definitely not a good thing.
Many companies whose founders worked so hard were eventually acquired by investment companies in disguise.
This is also the reason why Li Xu has been cautiously expanding the production capacity of Rising Sun.
Once an investment company is introduced because of funding problems, it is definitely a wolf in the room.
Although most investment companies only invest money and do not participate in management, it is just that the cake is not fragrant enough.
Once the fragrance is too attractive, capital will not give the profit to others, even if it is originally owned by others.
Just when Li Xu hesitated, the woman behind Anderson spoke up.
“Mr. Li, as far as I know, you are only a visiting scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and you will not stay in the United States for long. Your focus is on China, and our Huasheng Investment also has business in Asia, I think We may also cooperate in China in the future!”
The woman turned out to be from Huasheng Group, a well-known financial group company that integrates securities, investment, finance and other businesses. It is a veritable multinational corporation!
Li Xu couldn’t help sighing, this is a big dinosaur.
Thinking of this, Li Xu immediately activated the system to sign in.
Not at this time, when to use it.
“Sign in!”
“The sign-in is successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining an exclusive investment fund of 10 million US dollars, which is limited to local companies in the United States.”
It is worthy of being the largest economy in the world, and the money for this sign-in is a lot.
10 million US dollars, equivalent to more than 60 million yuan, the top of which he signed a year and a half of cash flow.
Of course, the use of money cannot be counted in this way.
In the United States, a box of Oreos still costs several dollars, which is equivalent to tens of dollars in RMB.
But in fact, the operating activities here are also flowing in and out according to the US dollar standard.
Ten million may seem like a lot, but it’s actually nothing in the United States. NBA stars earn tens of millions a year.
“It turns out to be Huasheng Group. No wonder, what you said makes sense. I will seriously consider it.”
Li Xu retracted his mind, said a word, then smiled again, stood up, and said, “I have been out for so long, I have to go back to school, alas, unlike you, time is so free!”
The woman’s face froze, but soon returned to normal, and then shook hands with Li Xu with Anderson and said goodbye.
Li Xu didn’t let them send them off, so he walked out of the factory slowly, greeted the two security guards, and left the company in a taxi.
He didn’t spend much time in Ohio, but took the nearest plane and headed back to Boston.
Along the way, he also thought about the issue of shares.
Just exchanging money is really a bit uncomfortable.
It would be nice if it could be replaced with biopharmaceutical equipment.
The old and the United States banned sales to China, not only semiconductor chips, engines, etc., but even high-end biopharmaceutical technology is actually blocked.
As long as they are ahead, they will definitely try their best to block China.
It’s a little harder to get them to give the device.
Li Xu pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of backdoor eggs!
Instead of withdrawing from the Sun God, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com relies on the Sun God to establish a Huaxia subsidiary, and then use Huasheng’s influence to profit from it.
However, the intrigue was too much, and Li Xu felt a little worried when he thought about it.
His emotional intelligence can’t play with these old capitalists.
Finally, after thinking for a long time, Li Xu decided to produce equipment first, buy it if you give it, or ask for more money if you don’t give it.
The big deal is to promise that the company is open in the continental United States.
By the time Li Xu returned to MIT, it was already past six o’clock in the evening.
Just as Li Xu was lying down in the dormitory to rest, he was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone. He picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from a newly-acquainted “compatriot” Wang Bo.
“Hi, Li Xu, if you have time, I’ll invite you to dinner and introduce a friend to you.”
Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile, “What friend? Is it ours too?”
“You’ll know when you come! The Italian restaurant on Garden Street, seven o’clock, okay?”
“Okay, I’ll be there in a while.” Li Xu smiled and hung up the phone.
Stretching, Li Xu took a deep breath.
Now he is full of talents, equipment, and companies!
When he was on the plane, Li Xu specially downloaded several experimental materials about the cell activity researched by Prof. Bruce and Dr. Klein before getting on the plane.
After reading it, he realized that this was just an ordinary biological experiment.
This is researching anti-aging and researching health!
The future is an era of aging, and it is also an era of vigorous development of the health industry.
Li Xu’s eyes lit up immediately.
I seem to have signed up for a gram of bayer cell viability. Just by hearing the name, I know that this thing is specified to have something to do with cell viability.
If combined with Klein’s research and development experiments, Li Xu suddenly felt that this was a great thing!
