Indulge in Life in America

Chapter 1359: British version of "LeTV"

"I always feel that investing in waste recycling power generation technology was a benefit for the country and the people." Corey said proudly.

On the contrary, his wife, William's aunt Sarah, seemed very humble. "It's good luck. I happened to ran into the founder to seek financial support."

Yang Cheng smiled, and suddenly her voice changed, "I heard that the two of them had a serious funding problem, so they had to sell their shares in the energy company?"

The couple looked at each other for unknown reasons, and Corey said solemnly, "Yes, I have to admit that we have encountered a very big setback in terms of funding."

"I know this is presumptuous, but can you reveal some details?"

Corey frowned, "Does this have anything to do with your decision to invest or not?" The fastest update of Qiqi novel https://

Yang Cheng nodded, "Of course, the details determine success or failure. If you just want to cash out and repay the debt, there is no problem at all, but what if it is because of the energy company itself?"

Although his words are straightforward, it sounds to Corey that the reason is still valid, so the feeling of being offended just arose disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he muttered, "Mr. Yang, you don't have to worry about this as a trap. You can hire a professional company to investigate and review the company's financial situation. This aspect can withstand any scrutiny. I have this confidence."

After a pause, it seemed that he was making his final determination. In the end, before Yang Cheng's almost threatening gaze, he resigned and said, "As for my own debt problem, it has nothing to do with the energy company.

I invested in Tesco Supermarket and it turned out. . . "

Halfway through the conversation, Corey's face was full of depression.

Yang Cheng also believed his words in an instant. Tesco is a pit, and it is a sinkhole that pits countless people. In this respect, Jia Paopao's LeTV can be compared to it.

Corey is not the only investor who was cheated by Tesco? Isn't even the old stock **** planted in this pit and almost ruined his fame?

As the third largest retailer in the world and the largest retailer in the UK, Tesco rose rapidly through a series of innovative activities at the end of the last century, and it occupied approximately 30% of the UK retail market.

In fact, more than 10 years ago, Tesco’s development was still prosperous. Except for catching up with the global financial crisis in 2008 and 2009, during the twelve years at the beginning of the 21st century, sales revenue showed an annual growth curve. In 2009, its sales and net profit increased by 31% and 35% respectively, and even exceeded Wal-Mart's 11% and 29%.

And the net profit rate during the twelve-year period is 4%. Don't think that this proportion is small. You must know that the average level of retail industry in developed countries is only 1%. With a return on net assets of 15%, no matter how you analyze it, from the perspective of development trends and financial performance alone, Tesco is a high-quality stock no less than Wal-Mart, and it performed very well during that time period.

The old stock **** bought Tesco's stock on bargaining from 2006 to 10 years. However, after 12 years, Tesco's development has repeatedly fallen short of expectations. In 14 years, Tesco broke out a financial fraud scandal, and the old stock **** had to admit that it was Major mistake he made.

In fact, if an afterthought is analyzed, the reason for the failure is very simple. It is nothing more than the small barriers of the retail industry, and the business methods are easy to imitate each other. In order to maintain the advantage, the long-term success has made Tesco's management complacent and mentally lax. , Not thinking about making progress, this is also a common problem in the entire UK and even European companies.

In addition, consumers in different regions have different preferences and habits. Although Tesco has advantages in scale, it is not as flexible as local retail companies in terms of flexibility, which has caused its overseas footprint to continue to shrink.

After all, investors are not in the company, and cannot well perceive changes in the management's mentality, let alone the disappointment of consumers towards Tesco. Failure is inevitable.

However, for the huge wealth managed by the old stock god, the hundreds of millions of dollars paid on Tesco will not hurt the bones. At most, the fur is damaged. Give him some time and he can completely heal himself.

However, investors like Corey are not so lucky.

"I followed the advice of the wealth management manager and invested in Tesco's stock with a loan. The result was heavy losses. I have barely paid interest over the years and have to repay the principal at the end of this year. If it is not impossible, I don't want to sell shares in the energy company." Said so.哽噺繓赽奇奇 Novel 蛧|w~w~

Yang Cheng expressed his understanding and apologized, "I'm sorry to have caused your sadness, but there is an old saying in our country Z that there must be a road to the mountain, so Mr. Corey can relax as long as the results of the investigation meet expectations. , Your debt will no longer be a problem."

This sentence is equivalent to a promise in disguise. How could Corey fail to understand, holding Yang Cheng’s hand, thankful, "Thank you, Mr. Yang, this is no different than giving charcoal in the snow, and my wife and I will always remember this Kindness."

Yang Cheng smiled and withdrew her hand calmly, the old guy's hands were quite strong.

Sarah also said happily, "Thank you, I have the opportunity to be a guest at home. William also likes the barbecue I make."

Yang Cheng pretended to be pleasantly surprised, "Of course, I must bother if I have the opportunity. My love for barbecue is eternal and lasting."

A little joke eased the blunt atmosphere. At this time, William, who had been busy for a while, also rushed back, and the time was just right.

"How's the talk?" William cared.

Yang Cheng took the initiative to say, "Not bad, I gave a promise, as long as the investigation is okay, the acquisition process will be officially launched."

William was overjoyed, this is the result he wanted, "Very good, then, after the acquisition is over, I invite everyone to drink."

Sarah immediately agreed, "We have already said that we will go to the house for barbecue and I will cook it myself."

"It's great. I haven't tasted my aunt's barbecue for a long time. I look forward to it."

The Corey couple left with witty farewell, Yang Orange and William looked at each other'hypocritically' and smiled, one for the commission of up to 7 figures, and the other for their own investment empire, taking an important step in the field of new energy. !

The two are considered to take what they need, so the "brother" relationship can be maintained.

It seems cold-blooded to say this, but the reality is that two people know each other well, and no one will regard each other as real buddies or brothers. The only bond between the two is solid interests!

Of course, everyone is a good actor. Can those Oscar-winning actors and actresses be able to integrate their acting skills into their lives and their blood?

Obviously it is impossible. None of the best actors in the world are in the entertainment industry. They are deeply involved in the political and business circles. They are "low-key" and outrageous!

Taking advantage of no one around, after smiling, Yang Cheng whispered, "Your charity foundation, how can you just have David's donation?

How about this, David and I donate to your charity fund, eh~3 million? "

William smiled very ‘humbly’. “Too many, you know that even £100,000 can do a lot for people living in difficult situations.”

Yang Cheng also responded with an emotional smile, "Not much, for people in need, this little money is nothing."

The two actors once again showed their acting skills, and in a few words they seemed to have become saviors.

The time for the conversation always passed quickly. Before you knew it, all the guests had arrived and the dinner officially started. Of course, before the dinner, Her Majesty the Queen and the 90-something old lady gave a toast with a trembling toast, making a big talk. Heap, it's not nutritious, it's nothing more than thanking everyone for coming, hoping that the UK will be better, etc. Ignore it.

The next dinner was the focus. After Yang Cheng took his seat, he found several invited stars in front of him who were taking selfies with their mobile phones. The background was naturally a long table with rich food and the fuzzy figure of Her Majesty the Queen at the farthest point. .

Compared with a dinner party attended by nobles, there are many benefits of being idle, at least in terms of etiquette, you don't need to be too demanding, as long as you don't do too much, you won't be noticed.

Yang Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. Before he came, he specially asked Carson to train assault, but he didn't know whether he could be perfect or not. Now he doesn't need to worry, no one looks at him.

He was placed in a place closer to the royal family in the middle ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but there were also some of the most famous British businessmen in the middle, but there was not much communication between them, except that they said hello when they were seated. .

The whole dinner was awkward. Even if he didn't pay attention to etiquette all the time, he didn't really relax and enjoy the food.

In short, he has decided to go outside to buy hamburgers to fill his stomach after the dinner is over.

Towards the end of the dinner, Prince Philip, the world’s first person to eat soft food, held a small charity auction.

The lot is naturally from the collection of Windsor Castle. Of course, there are no too amazing treasures to appear, nothing more than antique paintings from the Middle Ages, but with the royal family's fame bonus, it is still very popular.

The famous roll fortune took an antique ring with a high price of 240,000 pounds. This guy has a lot of background in the UK. He is from a family. In addition to several officers and jazz, the family can appear on the invitation list for the royal dinner. , It can be seen.

Yang Cheng raised his hand several times, but was quickly overwhelmed by the high price, and then gave up. He has always been very Buddhist like this auction. He raises his hand when he meets the one he likes, but he doesn't know how to bid. It's not worth it. He didn't think badly when he used a 200% premium to shoot a piece of broken copper and iron.

Finally, at 10 o'clock in the evening, the dinner was over, and everyone left after receiving a souvenir gift from Windsor Castle.

The luxury cars drove out of the castle one by one, and Yang Cheng was naturally among them. After all, he lived far away, and it was early in the morning to return to the manor.

On the way, Carson appeared to be chatting with his old friends with a smile, making him very happy.

Yang Cheng couldn't help but ridicule him, "I laughed when I saw you for the first time, no, no, to be precise, I laughed for so long, and it seemed that I had suffocated you in Beihai Manor."
