Happy Tycoon
Chapter 400: The importance of shredders
Zhao Meng's movements are very fast. As a local snake in San Francisco, one of the speakers in the Chinese circle in San Francisco, he can do some things very easily.
The 80 million euro cash with a face value of 500 euros, Yang Jing told him in the morning, has been replaced by Franklin in the afternoon.
Although the euro cannot be circulated in the United States, many Americans are keen on speculating about the euro, especially the vampires on Wall Street.
At present, the exchange rate between the euro and the US dollar is approximately at the level of 1:1.166. Yang Jing’s 80 million euros can be exchanged for more than 93 million US dollars. In addition to the 8 million US dollars in cash, Yang Jing’s account Suddenly more than 100 million US dollars.
As for the bearer bonds, the exchange rate is also very fast. Some people on Wall Street collect these things, especially these bonds are ten-year long-term bonds, and most of these bonds were purchased at the end of 2008. In other words, by the end of this year, those who hold these bonds can not only redeem the principal, but also earn a lot of interest.
The US Treasury bonds of US$200 million in these national debts were issued after the subprime mortgage crisis broke out, so the interest rates of this batch of Treasury bonds are relatively high. For example, the interest rate of the ten-year period is close to 4%. In order to quickly release these national debts, Yang Jing asked Zhao Meng to charge no interest but only the principal when converting them. Therefore, these national debts were swallowed by some predators as soon as they appeared on Wall Street.
The same is true for the national debts of other countries, so they can be exchanged quickly.
In just two days, Zhao Meng made another $600 million into Yang Jing's account.
Of course, this account is specially set up by Yang Jing in Switzerland. Although holding U.S. Treasury bonds in the United States, both principal and interest can be tax-free, but the amount is so huge, Yang Jing still did not pay in order to avoid unnecessary trouble. The funds are remitted to his personal account.
In the future, activities in the United States will be indispensable, and Yang Jing doesn't want to be targeted by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service gang.
As for the gold and diamonds, it takes more time to sell, and in order to avoid tax as much as possible, Zhao Meng needs to sell these diamonds and gold through many reasonable tax avoidance methods, and even to sell these precious gold and diamonds. An offshore company was established in Bermuda...
However, the 700 million US dollars in the account is enough for Yang Jing to fully develop the Grand Canal.
The exchange of things went smoothly, and Yang Jing was in a good mood. After sending 400 million U.S. dollars to the domestic special account, Yang Jing was completely relieved.
This $400 million is enough to support the entire development of the Grand Canal.
After finishing this matter, Yang Jing took Lin Dan and walked onto the Golden Gate Bridge. Chris and the four of them were still secretly protecting them.
I've been to San Francisco three times. Yang Jing hasn't visited San Francisco's iconic Golden Gate Bridge yet. Today is just free. He pulled Lin Dan here early in the morning.
Today’s weather is very good and visibility is high. Yang Jing wore a sports suit and Lin Dan walked along the path of the bridge to the middle of the bridge, and then looked to the west bay area to welcome the sunrise.
"Big brother, wouldn't you just pull me here to watch the sunrise? Come on, I see this thing is already vomiting..." Yang Jing was pulled up by less than four o'clock, and Lin Dan got up in a huff. .
"Young people need to exercise more, get up early and can't kill anyone." Yang Jing watched the sun rising from the mountains east of the Bay Area, and flirted with Lin Dan.
"Brother, are you not much older than me?" Lin Dan continued to complain.
"Boy, pulling you out is to let you feel the magnificence of the sunrise in the east."
"Brother, I don't know how many times I have felt this magnificence since I was little."
"Then feel it again...You should complain less and punish you to go back and write an essay about watching the sunrise."
"Uh...well, you won, who made you the eldest brother..."
The sun pops out very fast, but I have to admit that watching the sunrise on this volley suspension bridge really feels unusual.
"Very beautiful!" Yang Jing couldn't help but compliment.
Lin Dan curled his lips and said, "Is that count? If you come in winter, I will show you the scene where the sea of clouds and the sunrise appear together. That's beautiful."
"Well, since you said that, when there is a chance to come here in winter, you have to show me the sunrise in the sea of clouds, otherwise, you will be fined to write an essay."
"Brother, can we not mention the composition? Pulis..."
Yang Jing laughed loudly, in a very good mood.
"Brother, have you seen that white yacht?"
Yang Jing looked in the direction Lin Dan was pointing, and he found a huge white yacht, "This yacht is not bad, it's big enough, I guess it will cost a lot of money?"
"No, brother, don't you see the origin of this yacht?" Lin Dan looked at Yang Jing in surprise. It seemed that Yang Jing didn't recognize this yacht is a very shocking thing.
Yang Jing shrugged, "Isn't it guilty of not recognizing this yacht? Or is this yacht very famous? But is this yacht famous?"
Lin Dan looked like he was completely defeated, "Brother, you are also a billionaire anyway, let's not behave like this, okay? There are some things even if you don't have them now, but you need to understand, wait for you to understand. Enough is enough, then you can own those things. Because those things are the existence that embodies the true value of a man."
"Like this yacht?" Yang Jing asked Lin Dan, tilting his head.
"You can say so." Lin Dan pointed at the white yacht that was about to enter the open sea through the Golden Gate Bridge, "Larry Ellison knows, right? David Geffen knows?"
Yang Jing nodded. Of course, Larry Ellison and his Oracle company knew that. As for David Geffen, the American entertainment giant that once co-founded DreamWorks with Hollywood director Spielberg, Yang Jing also has Heard.
"The name of this yacht is the Rising Sun. It was originally built by Larry Ellison with a huge amount of money, and then transferred to David Geffen." Lin Dan explained.
"This yacht is Larry Ellison's Rising Sun?" Yang Jing was really a little surprised. He didn't expect to be able to appreciate this once the world's largest super-luxury yacht up close on the Golden Gate Bridge. .
"Yes, this yacht is the yacht you mentioned. But as early as eight years ago, this yacht had a new owner, and David Geffen was the new owner of this ship."
"I have heard of this, and I seem to have heard that there was a very interesting incident when this yacht was born. It seems to have something to do with Bill Gates?"
Lin Dan smiled and shook his head and said, "Brother Yang, something very interesting did happen when this yacht was born, but it was not related to Bill Gates, but to Paul Ai, Gates’ partner. Lun related."
"Oh, do you know about this? Talk about it. I am idle anyway." Yang Jing turned around and leaned back on the bridge railing. Since Oracle and Microsoft are involved, Yang Jing is a little interested. After all, in time and space in 1987, the Dragon Fund he controlled is now acquiring shares of Microsoft and Oracle, and in the upcoming stock market crash, the Dragon Foundation increased its holdings of many of these two companies' stocks.
"Actually, the things that happened when this yacht was born have been well laid out a long time ago. Brother Yang, you should know that Oracle and Microsoft have not dealt with each other?"
Yang Jing nodded. Although he was not kicked, he still knew the contradiction between the two giants in the IT industry.
In fact, this contradiction is more derived from Larry Ellison, who has the nickname "Madman".
Look at Larry Ellison's nickname to know what kind of character this guy is. That's right, this guy's personality is extremely strong, especially for his colleagues, he said he would not admit defeat at all.
Of course, his colleague referred to here mainly refers to Bill Gates, who is eleven years younger than him, but who has been overwhelming Larry Ellison's personal wealth.
Ellison is eleven years older than Gates, and the two companies were established at the same time. They are also engaged in the IT industry. However, no matter how hard Ellison works, he has always been unable to compete with Gates. Even now, Egypt Lison is still not Gates' opponent.
The two people have been fighting since the 1980s. In the 1990s, this competition developed to its climax, because at that time Larry Ellison was not satisfied with the current wealth ranking calculation method-if it were to be used in his own way. Calculated, he himself is the richest man in the world. Therefore, Ellison, who has been suppressed by Microsoft and Gates in the second position, has been struggling to find ways to kill Gates and his Microsoft.
In order to defeat Gates, Ellison even used some tricky methods, but he was still helpless with Gates classmates.
In 1994, in order to deal with Microsoft, Ellison hired a Microsoft cleaning lady to help him engage in "Infernal Affairs" activities ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ finally found clues to deal with Microsoft from the Microsoft trash can. When Microsoft suddenly received an indictment from the U.S. Department of Justice regarding its bundling behavior, Microsoft executives including Bill Gates and Paul Allen were caught off guard for a while. This is the "garbage door" incident that made a sensation in the IT industry.
This incident tells the world the importance of paper shredders!
Bill Gates was irritated by Ellison's abnormal methods. He, who has always been prudent, couldn't help but criticize Oracle's despicableness in front of the media: "Look at those decent companies. They actually treat their competitors. Do such a despicable act!" But the instigator was very proud. Ellison not only quickly admitted that everything was his own work, but also proudly declared that "I am very satisfied with what I have done."
Since then, Ellison and Microsoft's Liangzi have even settled. The titans of the two top IT companies unavoidably pinched, no matter which side has something good, the other side will always make a sideways bargain, just can't make the opponent feel good.
And this kind of competition has gradually extended to all aspects of life from the pure business competition at the beginning.
Among them, the yacht dispute between Ellison and Paul Allen can be regarded as a joke that made the whole world feel funny at the beginning of the new century.
