Blackstone Code

"Another tightrope walker!" Hart couldn't help expressing emotion.

Only Joe Griman knows what Hart means. In the past two years, "concepts" have become more and more popular, and Bu Pain's group of investors also like this kind of thing very much.

Maybe ninety-nine out of a hundred "concepts" will never be realized, but as long as one can be realized, it is enough to make some people madly invest in these concepts, such as the "concept" that once became a financial myth. Day trip".

Someone took out a bunch of design drafts and claimed to have solved some mechanical problems, and made a prototype, which can realize people's dream of flying in the air.

Flying in the air, this may be the most impulsive thought of humans standing on the ground every time they look up and see birds flying in the sky. It must be very pleasant to fly freely in the blue sky like those birds things.

Now, people actually heard that there is an opportunity to fly in the sky, plus the design draft of the original model and a vague "documentary", and soon the company raised hundreds of millions of funds from the society, until the promoter surrendered himself , people don't want to believe it's a hoax.

They believed that this was a kind of persecution from the plutocrats and capitalists, and they wanted to monopolize the opportunity to fly, so they created this ending.

But the real result is that this is indeed a scam. The so-called prototype and the video are actually fakes, but their level of fakery is higher than others, and they have captured people's yearning for flying. Got a lot of money.

It’s just that the money is too much, and sometimes it’s not a good thing to have too much money. The promoter only wanted to cheat a few million at first, and then he would gradually declare to the outside world that his experiment failed in the end and spent all his investment. People's money, can only be ashamed to declare bankruptcy.

But in fact, he will transfer the money, and after a period of bankruptcy protection, he can live a happy life incognito.

However, these designs of his are too in line with the pursuit of "freedom" by impetuous people in a rapidly expanding society, so capital is constantly added to it, and many ordinary people have also invested money in this project.

If his previous ideas were exposed, he might spend a few years in prison, or even not need to go to prison. A few large-scale crash sites with millions of dollars can be perfunctory, and no one will continue to invest in successive failures.

But hundreds of millions of funds are different. When he calmed down from the soaring amount, he realized how big a disaster he had caused, which might land him in prison for the rest of his life. buried under the prison.

So he turned himself in, and the shattering of a myth created a legend, which opened up a kind of "concept age" like fraud.

As long as there is a concept, it can attract speculators and large funds. People are addicted to this almost gambling-like game and cannot extricate themselves. This is the most depressing helplessness of those old-school businessmen.

They have worked hard for many years, and the latter has been in business for a lifetime. It is not as good as others, but this is also a reality.

Hart believes that Lynch is such a person who plays with "concepts". He is playing with fire and self-immolation, but at the same time he envies the other party's wealth. He may not have done anything, just moved his mouth, and got a large investment.

Look at him again. After so many years of hard work, an economic recession directly erased his achievements for so many years, and he was pressed to the ground by reality.

Joe Griman shook his head and didn't continue to explain. He knew that no matter what he said now, Hart would not change his mind, so it's better to wait for him to calm down later.

In fact, Hart is also a person who is very good at seizing opportunities. He immediately started preparing for this project after learning about the low-cost apartment policy. If there is no accident, he can earn millions or even tens of millions at a time after the project is over.

The tenant’s rent is enough to maintain the daily expenses of the entire apartment, and the government’s monthly subsidy is not a small amount. If the economic recession lasts long enough, the government’s subsidy alone can make Hart and the others pay back.

Next, when they sell these apartments, they will make a pure profit, and what is even more profitable is that they can hide some other industries under this company to achieve the same tax exemption. In the eyes of others, Hart is also a person who is good at grasping opportunity man.

But Lynch is different from him. Lynch is good at creating opportunities, so for Lynch, the opportunities in his hands are all first-hand things. The opportunities he creates are essentially for himself, and they are more suitable. .

It's like why upper-class ladies and gentlemen will never go to tailors that ordinary people have never heard of, and go to big-name designers to design their own styles, because the one size in the store is always the same. One size fits all but definitely not one size fits all.

It can't fit everyone's body in the best way, it just takes care of most people with almost the same body shape as much as possible. In the eyes of the upper class, those who wear non-handmade luxury brand clothes, and the road There is no difference between people who wear five yuan a piece of clothing.

Only by being close to the body can the best effect be created. This is why Lynch can make an inconspicuous little thing bigger, but Hart can't. He just picked up the opportunity that others missed, and then changed himself to If he fits this opportunity, he will not be able to maximize his benefits.

Leaving aside this matter, Lynch, who was sitting in the car, had already started thinking about another auction on Friday. They set up a branch office in Curryland City and chose a venue. , and some corresponding goods have already let Kukla pass.

This business was initiated by the mayor of Sabine City, and was affirmed by the governor. Most people would not interfere with the "policy" implemented throughout the state, because it would offend many people, and they would only cooperate.

This is also the reason why the speed of the auction meeting in Curryland City became faster. The lease of the venue that had not been negotiated was quickly and completely resolved. They used the Curryland City Stadium uniformly, and this matter was sponsored by Richard De did it himself.

He told Lynch in private that venues in other cities are planning to rent stadiums. On the one hand, it is to give people a "unified" impression, which will raise the grade and specification of the auction, and secondly, stadiums are more suitable.

Lynch was a little busy during this period, and he left all these things to Richard. He didn't ask about the process, only the result.

Calculating the time, the meeting will be held in a few days, and it is approaching the beginning of the school season in September, so he happened to follow Catherine to Curiland City to help her settle down there.

The next day, that is, the next day, Lynch made a decision, changed his itinerary slightly, and called Catherine. When a slightly panting girl's voice came out of the microphone, Lynch couldn't help laughing.

He knew why, Catherine's house was about 40 or 50 meters away from the phone booth, and she must have been running very fast, including going up and down the stairs.

Listening to Lynch's laughter, the girl immediately guessed who the person on the other side of the phone was. She casually asked Lynch why he called her, and then agreed to Lynch's arrangement.

In fact, even if Lynch didn't think about these things, she planned to go to Curryland City some time in advance. It is impossible for her college career to be hidden in the school all the time. She must also get in touch with that city. By the way Find out where you can go and where you can't.

Every city in the Baylor Federation has areas like this, filled with violence and crime, where normal people would stay away.

Unexpectedly, Lynch also thought of this point. The girl was really happy. After making an appointment, she hurried home and started to pack her things.

Her mother was a little surprised. She stood outside Catherine's bedroom with a carrot as thick as a forearm in her hand. Watching her busy in the room, she couldn't help asking, "Where are you going?"

Carrots are one of the three most common foods in ordinary households, and the other two are potatoes and cheap chicken, but because the chicken is all chopped, there will be some bone residue mixed in, and the price is slightly higher than vegetables, Not everyone likes it.

"Go to Curryland, school is about to start, I have to get used to it, I'm a little nervous..." She stopped what she was doing and turned to look at the old woman by the door, "I haven't been in school for two years Feeling in the learning atmosphere, I was worried that I would not be able to keep up, you know, I had forgotten some of the learning aspects."

Two years is enough time for an excellent student to forget a lot of knowledge that is not profound at all, coupled with a boring and exhausting life, her worry is justified.

The old lady didn't care about this. Since her husband, Catherine's father, got a new job, she felt that the couple had gradually lost their management power over Catherine.

"Do you want your brother to take you there?" The old woman asked again.

Catherine shook her head quickly, and started to pack up and salute again, "Don't bother others, Lynch will come to pick me up!"

The "brother" that the old woman called was actually Catherine's cousin, the most promising one in the whole family - he inherited the small farm left to him by his parents, and he was the best in the big family people.

But compared to Lynch, the old woman shut her mouth knowingly and went back to the kitchen. She had to deal with the food. Her husband must be starving when he came back at night. Those capitalists are really fucking bad people. Oh, it's not about Lynch.

Regardless of whether the old woman had any regrets in her heart, and regardless of whether Lynch left and came back into Catherine's life, everything here has not changed much from yesterday, the day before yesterday, and every day before.

The girl was doing her own thing, the old woman was humming some old-fashioned ditties, and the bubbling small steel pot exuded a simple but alluring fragrance.

a simnple day!
