Morgan is from Portland, but he also has a villa in New York. He just rents it instead of buying it. In addition, he rarely lives in it, but when he needs to hold a cocktail party, the villa should be opened.
Driving on the 13th, Gao Yang sat in the back seat. He was about to arrive. He was still studying what the buttons were for.
"I'll be there soon. Don't play."
Gao Yang adjusted the boss's chair to the normal position, then smiled at No. 13 and said, "this car is good. Really, when you go back, people can't see it. I'll drive you to sit back and feel it. It's comfortable, especially comfortable!"
There was no reply on the 13th. He slowly parked the car at the door of the villa. A waiter invited by Morgan opened the door, so he didn't get out of the car to open the door for Gao Yang.
Gao Yang got out of the car and stepped on the red carpet. After he stood up, he reached out and handed the invitation to the waiter who opened the door for him.
The waiter opened the invitation and looked at it. Then he said politely, "welcome, Mr. Gao."
Gao Yang came early. Although this reception is a semi formal cocktail party to promote guest communication, his identity has not reached the last level. Moreover, due to his personal relationship with Morgan, he should come early and help Morgan greet the guests.
When they came to the door, Morgan and Gao Yang, who were greeting the guests, held their hands and looked very formal, but the conversation was very casual.
"I see. Your car is very good. It's a Rolls Royce bulletproof car. This car needs to be customized. Did you buy it or rent it?"
"That car, I bought it. It's the highest grade bulletproof car. It's expensive. It's 1.6 million."
"Oh? 1.6 million? That's really expensive."
"Fortunately, tomler paid me more than half the money, so I only spent 700000 dollars to buy it, and saved the waiting time for customization. How about this car? Is it still worth it?"
Morgan was surprised and said, "tommle paid for you? What do you mean?"
Gao Yang approached Morgan and said with a low smile, "tomler ordered the car and paid half the money. The car was delivered on schedule three months ago. He died and no one paid the rest of the money. After the successful bargain in the car store, we bought the car."
Morgan laughed and whispered, "if tomler knows that the car he ordered belongs to you after he died and pays a lot of money for you, he will live again."
Gao Yang curled his lips and said, "that's a good feeling. If tomler survives, I'll kill him again."
After laughing, Morgan whispered, "have you decided where to put your company headquarters?"
Morgan once recommended several places to Gao Yang: Utah, Colorado, California in the west, Idaho where Gao Yang's farm is located, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania in the East, and Texas in the south.
Gao Yang's plan is to put the company's headquarters in Idaho, that is, to register in Idaho. For no other reason, it doesn't make much difference to him anywhere in the United States. He chose Idaho just because of where his farm is.
"I'm going to be in Idaho, but it's not certain. We discussed it. It doesn't matter where it is. I don't understand these. Just help me make up my mind."
Morgan thought for a moment and whispered, "if it doesn't matter where you are, I suggest you stay in Texas for many reasons and many benefits. I'll introduce it to you later. If you think Texas can, we can complete the registration and do everything tomorrow."
Gao Yang said with a smile, "well, in short, I have to trouble you about it."
"Leave early tomorrow. Let's go to Houston. Well, go in. I have to greet the guests."
Gao Yang himself went in. There were not many people, and there were two people he knew. This reception was originally in Morgan's social circle, and Morgan has introduced several to him.
Originally, it was a reception to contact feelings and meet new people. Gao Yang approached people he had met before, met some new people under Morgan's lead, and the social circle slowly opened up.
There was nothing surprising about the reception. Going to Houston the next day was the highlight.
The next day, on Morgan's new plane, Gao Yang and Morgan sat side by side. Morgan said in high spirits: "Gao, you can use the old plane. When you have enough money, you can change a new plane, but you have to pay for a crew. You can't always use my crew."
Gao Yang tangled: "however, there are problems in aircraft maintenance, parking and flight crew. I don't know what to do."
Morgan said with a smile, "you should be at the airport where I maintain. It's not easy. Now the contract of the old aircraft has not expired. You just need to complete the aircraft transaction with me, change the aircraft number, repaint it, and then find two pilots."
After that, Morgan made up a hasty sentence and said with a smile, "don't ask me how much I need. The plane will send you. As for the money to hire a pilot, you won't be reluctant to give up?"
Gao Yang said with a smile, "well, it's really convenient to have a private plane. I'm welcome. We'll complete the transfer of the plane when we have time."
Morgan nodded and said with a smile, "I haven't told you a message. Just this morning, Depp company has decided to stop the negotiation. Davidson personally told my people that they completely and completely withdraw from the competition. In addition, Davidson apologized. He sincerely apologized for the troubles caused by Depp group in the past."
Finally, there was a result. Gao Yang smiled and said, "well, Davidson is still sensible, so this matter can stop here."
Morgan shook his head and said, "no, it's not completely everywhere. I told Davidson that they will be responsible for the distribution and disposal of our diamonds. The diamonds handed over to Depp group at the initial stage will account for 10-15% of our output. In the future, depending on the situation, the share may gradually increase."
Gao Yang said strangely, "why? We finally got rid of Depp group."
Morgan laughs: "There is no hatred among businessmen, only interests. We and Depp group are competing for interests, not for morale. Now Depp group has softened and they are completely afraid. Why don't we make use of Depp group's sales channels? Don't forget, Depp group is one of the largest diamond enterprises after all, and they are also the largest blood diamond dealers. If we can It doesn't matter who sells the diamonds at a satisfactory price. Moreover, after this incident, Depp group has completely lost the courage to fight us. Where can we find such a good trading partner? "
Gao Yang smiled and said in a deep voice, "just decide. You can make up your mind about this kind of thing."
Morgan nodded and said solemnly: "Business is like this. If we achieve our goal and eat meat, we might as well leave a bone for our opponents. If we can sell the diamonds at the price we are satisfied with, the more channels, the better, and Depp group can also make rich profits in the transaction with us, so as to appease Depp group."
Morgan raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "the most important thing is that if we can tie the interests of Depp group with us, we can ensure that Depp group shut up to the greatest extent. After all, Depp group knows that diamond mine exists."
Gao Yang said strangely: "then why not talk about such a cooperation mode with Depp group from the beginning?"
Morgan said with a smile: "it's different. If we talk like this at the beginning, it's that we beg Depp group and Davidson, and doing so will only further stimulate his greed and make him put forward more excessive requirements. But now it's different. Davidson has been frightened and he has begun to beg for mercy. It's our charity to cooperate with him at this time."
Gao Yang sighed and said, "I see. I see. It's completely different whether we and Davidson beg for cooperation or give him a chance to cooperate."
Morgan pointed high and said with a smile: "You see, you understand very quickly. Well, let me tell you about the key person you want to see tonight. His name is Andrew Quincy Adams. He tends to be conservative and tough. He is a figure who speaks for the interests of the arms group. Your work is more consistent with Andrew's position, so you can try to approach and fund him to obtain long-term benefits in the future , this is your first investment in the future. You should seize the opportunity. "
Gao Yang said curiously, "why don't you have in-depth contact with him?"
Morgan smiled: "he is the spokesman of the military interest group, but I am not the person of the military interest group. We belong to different camps."
Gao Yang nodded, but then said, "then why hasn't he been supported by the interests of the military industry? What else do you need me to provide campaign funds?"
Morgan laughs: "It's very simple, especially simple, because he is only a small shrimp in the eyes of the military interest group, and he is only one of many people who can choose. When he stands out, it's not too late to start again. But for you, he is a key target for long-term investment. You need to help him stand out from many competitors in the early stage. It's just that his position is different and his perspective on things is also different Just, you should understand that the position that military interests pay attention to and need to strive for is the highest position in this country. "
Gao Yang nodded and said with a smile, "I understand that we need to take greater risks to invest in order to obtain a lucrative future."
Morgan smiled, "yes, but Andrew can't be your only investment, but one of your many investments. You can't put your eggs in one basket."
Gao Yang spread his hand and said, "understand, it's spreading a net."
Morgan's deep voice: "With my help, your starting point is much higher than your peers and much higher than me. Tonight is the beginning. You will work hard for your future to a higher level, but this is only the beginning. You have to weave a big net for yourself until you grow into a giant. In a few years, it's not certain who will help whom. Therefore, make great efforts Force. "
