Thank you. "

"Happy cooperation!"

In the conference room, Arthur smiled and shook hands with the credit manager of Barclays Bank. The subordinates behind the two were also smiling, happy for the cooperation between the two parties.

Barclays Bank has a long-term revenue partner, and Arthur has a pool of funds that can be used to lay eggs, a win-win situation!

Originally, Arthur wanted to contact more banks and choose the best partner from them. However, after a feeling of timelessness arose, Arthur had to speed up his pace, and in all the banks currently in contact In China, Barclays Bank is indeed very sincere, and more importantly, it is strong enough to support his acquisition ambitions.

"Greetings to Mr. Bob Diamond for me. If it is convenient, I would like to meet him and have a chat, so as to communicate more cooperation between the two parties in the future."

Before preparing to leave, Arthur and the credit manager said that the huge funds required for future plans made Arthur have to communicate with the CEO of Barclays Bank and get the support of each other.

Arthur's words made the other party stunned first, and then smiled and said: "I must bring it, you can call me directly if you need it, and we look forward to serving you at any time."

"Thank you." After Arthur smiled and nodded to the other party, he no longer hesitated to take someone out of Barclays Bank. At that time, he also took away two loans totaling 70 million pounds, of which 20 million pounds was used. His personal credit was loaned out.

Once the funds are in place, then the 100-unit apartment plan can be officially implemented.

After returning to the Financial City Starting Point Investment Company, Arthur first listened in detail to Oliver, the person in charge of the real estate investment project, about the next arrangements.

"Boss, all the deposit has been paid. Next, we need to transfer 10% of the total house price to the lawyer's trust account. At the same time, the lawyer needs to exchange the house purchase contract. You may need to sign hundreds of contracts. After the contract is signed, we will get it. With the real estate certificate and keys, you can pay the balance of the total payment. After that, we can start leasing and get rent, and the company will officially start operations."

Since Arthur bought second-hand houses in addition to existing houses, there is no need to wait for the real estate agent's delivery time, as long as the money is in place, the transaction can be completed.

"Haha, two contracts, hundreds of houses, but not hundreds of contracts, it seems that I am busy." said Arthur with a smile on his face, raising his hand and turning his wrist a few times. , Looks a little worried and tired.

Oliver also chuckled, "It will mainly take a lot of time, but I will first let the lawyers review all the contracts and check them clearly. When the time comes, you only need to sign."

"Yeah." Arthur nodded and asked with a smile, watching Oliver, "Is there any news from Nicholas Cage?"

"I have already replied. Nicholas Cage will arrive in London on the 25th to promote the upcoming movie "Mystery Code". Then he will take time to meet with you, sign the contract and complete the transaction."

Oliver replied, "I have sent someone to the United States to inspect the mansion and prepare to receive it." Then, he took out his mobile phone, opened the video and passed it to Arthur, with a strange expression on his face. , Shook his head and introduced.

"This is the video that came back. I have to say that the actor's taste is indeed a bit different. It's no wonder that the price will be reduced again and again and no one cares about it. This decoration style is really prohibitive..."

Arthur took the phone and looked at the picture being played. The castle architectural style of the entire mansion was still very popular with Arthur, especially the exterior wall covered with green vines, which looked like a castle in a fairy tale. The square at the entrance has a broad and grand circular driveway and a classical fountain. On the right side of the courtyard is a two-story guest room independent of the mansion, and on the left is an Olympic standard swimming pool and a private cinema.

But when he saw the decoration inside the mansion, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.

This castle-like villa has a private wine cellar, a movie theater, a game room, 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms. The decoration is not luxurious, it is clearly the ultimate mansion of the Royal Palace.

But what the **** is the strange and weird "college brotherhood style"? The walls are decorated with at least 300 comic book covers embedded in picture frames, and in the two bedrooms and the breakfast room, there are also toy model trains with tracks. . .

Seeing the weird expression on the boss’s face, Oliver also smiled helplessly: “Although the actor’s taste is a bit weird, this mansion is really good value for money. The mansion of more than 3,000 square meters is located in the west of Los Angeles at sunset. At the end of the avenue, the surrounding environment is beautiful, with green shades covering the sky. It is far away from the hustle and bustle, and it will never be disturbed by idlers."

"Yeah." As a movie fan, Arthur naturally knows Nicholas Cage’s unique hobbies. He loves to spend money on dinosaur skulls, heads, haunted houses, octopuses, sharks, crocodile, cobras, and so on. Pyramid tomb I bought myself. . .

"After buying it, let someone rearrange it and clean up the mess. However, the toy model train with tracks can be kept, which is quite interesting.

What about the price? "

When the boss asked about the price, Oliver shook his face a few times unnaturally. No idols or fans were worth the real U.S. dollars. "The total price of the two sets is 19 million U.S. dollars, which is the lowest price that the other party can accept. Now, if you talk about it, Nicholas Cage may choose to wait for a while to find a new buyer."

"That's it..." Arthur squinted his eyes and nodded and said, "Let's do it, after all, it's my idol. I'm sorry that the bargaining is too hard. Everyone has to meet. Always keep a good one. Impress each other."

"..." Oliver squeezed a smile on his face and remained silent. He really didn't know how to talk to his boss.

Seeing Oliver's back left, Arthur's mouth was slightly tilted, and he smiled, took out his mobile phone that was turned into silent mode, checked the information, and saw Long Ma's reply. Without hesitation, he called back. past.

The phone was picked up soon, and Arthur first asked about her audition in Hollywood. In fact, it can be expected that Emilia would be able to go smoothly when she was not well-known and unfamiliar with her place. The same is true. She has stolen all the toiletries and tea bags in the hotel lobby because she feels that she will definitely not come to Hollywood again.

In this regard, Arthur took a black line on his forehead and stopped her preparations in a very serious tone.

"...My dear, since there is no chance there, please return to London as soon as possible. In the United States, influenza A is raging. I am worried about your safety. You must pay attention..."

After Arthur had a good meal, he let the dragon mother who wanted to let her go. Emilia was also very helpful to Arthur's concern. She said that she missed him on the phone. It seems that there was a short separation. , But let the emotions caused by the scandal disappear.

The two were tired and crooked for a while before they ended the call. Arthur shook his head and laughed and put the phone aside. As I said before, many Hollywood studios could not guarantee the number of Hollywood productions due to the economic crisis~lightnovelpub.net~ It will shrink by one-third, and there are more monks and less porridge, how can there be so many opportunities for these dreamers.

And not just Hollywood, but global film capital is in turmoil. Just like his cheap sister, she said that she can find the crew and shoot a movie just like his cheap sister. They are everywhere looking for money to invest.

Arthur doesn’t know how to spend money on the water, let alone spend money on Eddie, even Long Ma, he never thought about spending money on it, he is not the kind of big tyrant with a lot of money and stupid people, and, The movie circle is so dark, and I don’t know how to die.

Thinking of these funny things, Arthur's mind suddenly flashed a memorable sentence in his previous life, that is, the worse the economy, the more people are willing to spend and have fun in the movie theater, so as to calm the depressed heart.

I have to admit that the film industry can really make money. However, thinking that the previous life was full of superhero movies, Arthur could not help but shook his head again and laughed. Unfortunately, not long ago, Disney acquired Marvel for US$4.24 billion. The company, even if it has an idea, is useless. Besides, he doesn't have that much money.

Hey, time does not wait for me!
