Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant

An Feng stayed behind without knowing it.

The wedding banquet is over, the servants are cleaning the scene, and the rest are preparing for the dinner. An Feng had nothing to do, so he stayed in the yard after the meeting and brought a bunch of fruit salad to share with Katilina. This wedding banquet was not as arrogant as domestic Guanbao or even Guanbao. An Feng only ate a few pieces of dessert and drank two glasses of champagne, most of the time he was smiling and chatting with strangers.

"Open your mouth." Katilina, who was sitting sideways on his lap, held a piece of apple and handed it to An Feng's mouth. He opened his mouth and bit it, making her giggle.

"You really can eat." Katilina wiped his mouth.

"I'm starving to death. I was hungry throughout the wedding banquet. Now I don't need to worry about my image anymore." An Feng complained.

Anthony, who was coming, heard his words and apologized deeply: "I'm really sorry, we didn't think carefully about the supply of meals."

An Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I was just joking."

Anthony smiled slightly, pulled up a chair and sat down in front of An Feng, and Katilina stood up holding the plate, and said, "I'll help you add something."

Anthony said: "Thank you for attending my wedding. The dinner will start in about half an hour. If you need to prepare, you can ask someone to do it for you."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have nothing prepared." After speaking, he looked at Anthony and felt that he was more reliable, so he asked, "I want to ask, do you know Mrs. Sinclair?"

Anthony said without hesitation: "Mr. Sinclair is a good friend of my father. As far as I know, Mr. Sinclair is a very tasteful oil tycoon, and his wife is also a philanthropist and a visionary investor. It involves various fields, mainly high-tech and energy."

An Feng rolled his eyes and approached him: "Can you not be so formal?"

Anthony smiled: "I'm sorry, you know that I have made several speeches recently, and the rhythm can't be changed for a while. How should I put it...Let's talk about 'Xin Energy' first. It is a non-listed company in Texas. Its oil business The turnover exceeds 100 billion, and the Sinclair family has a controlling stake.”

"The oil family?" An Feng said.

Anthony explained: "It is accurate to say that it started with oil, but now it involves energy including oil, and there are also some major investments, which cover too much and involve privacy. Sorry, I can't say too much. After the death of Mr. Sinclair, All personal shares are inherited to Mrs. Sinclair."

An Feng understood, it turned out that she was in control.

"In addition, to remind you, her network is huge, covering from financial institutions to various industrial institutions, and her ability to raise money is terrifying. It can be said that in Texas, her words are as effective as the governor, and even a decision can The employment of tens of thousands of people is a problem!"

An Feng was surprised. He had never seen how awesome the old lady was, but Texas was very important in the United States. It is a powerhouse of energy and industry, the second largest state in the United States, and developed aerospace and electronic technologies. Of course, there are also many tough humans—such as The crazy cowboy who left Kennedy in Dallas, and their thorny Governor Perry, who is conservative and stubborn, is not interested in some federal policies. He even threatened to secede from the United States and gained a lot of support. If he establishes the "Republic of Texas", it will be no less than breaking a leg of the United States.

And Anthony thinks that the old lady's ability is the same as the thorny governor who manages the cowboys?

According to him, Mrs. Sinclair is a typical local bigwig who dares to pay someone to blow the president's head...or maybe he has accidentally relied on a big backer. In addition, she is also a venture capitalist. Is it possible for her to invest some money in her own graphene industry?

...

The dinner began in the ornately decorated dining room of the Blue Lane family.

The ceiling is high, with artificial candlesticks hanging down, a long western table in the center, a set of shiny tableware, a strong European aristocratic style, and even a Gothic style with a sense of church solemnity. Eating in this kind of place really tests your table manners and patience.

Fortunately, An Feng has participated in this kind of dinner party. It was like this at Joanna's house last time, but their table setting is more warm, while this place is too serious. Although eating is the inevitable theme of the dinner, the conversation still takes a lot of weight... An Feng couldn't figure out how they were full.

Sitting at the long table were the Blueline family, Roger's brother and sister-in-law, father and mother, and some relatives and friends. The guests were Mrs. Sinclair and Anfeng and his companion Catilina. After you sit down, there are still servants standing behind you, refilling your wine at any time, this specification is really particular.

Old Blueline lived up to his role as the host, adjusted the atmosphere, and made the guests feel relaxed and satisfied. While eating and chatting, the topics became more interesting. It was interesting for An Feng to listen to Old Blueline talking about his two sons , and then the topic turned to An Feng.

When it comes to his career, An Feng can talk a lot. He tried to introduce graphene in a concise and easy-to-understand way. Everyone listened carefully. Mrs. Sinclair also asked a few tricky questions. In Anfeng, he was sure that he could overcome technical difficulties, so he answered confidently.

The second half of the dinner party focused on An Feng's confident technology. He undoubtedly brought a venture capital opportunity. It depends on how everyone present chooses... The dinner party took more than three hours to end. An Feng brought a card Tilina returned to the guest room prepared for them, and fell on the bed tiredly.

Katilina complained: "I'm too tired. Although I'm sitting and eating, it feels worse than having me speak to thousands of people on stage."

"Is that an exaggeration?" An Feng smiled.

"Yes." Katilina said, "Especially when you and the old lady speak with British accents, I feel as if I am from the country."

An Feng said with a smile: "Your mother tongue is Spanish, what's so strange, if they speak Spanish, they still look like country bumpkins."

"That makes sense." Katilina turned her head to look at An Feng, "However, you can master any language, let alone Spanish, copy mine. Last time I heard you speak Russian with Guli, if It’s not that you speak slowly, I almost thought you were from the same area.”

"Because I'm a genius!" An Feng said proudly.

...

The next day, after eating breakfast at Blueline's house, Roger, who was on the phone outside, came back and told An Feng: "I informed George to come over."

"What's the matter?" An Feng was surprised.

"We are going to discuss with you here about cooperation in the development of graphene." Roger said with a smile, "Surprised, right? We have so many partners at once."

An Feng said: "It's true, but didn't you all hesitate before?"

Roger shrugged: "That's because everyone needs time to understand, but since Mrs. Sinclair has a strong intention, we all decided to keep up with her."

"Really so magical?" An Feng was sad, feeling that the hype he said last night couldn't compare to the old lady's strong intentions?

Roger smiled: "Her vision is very unique, she has many successful examples, and even if she loses money, isn't it still supported by you, the major shareholder?"

Talking in the back garden of the Blue Lane house in the morning.

Anfeng's plan is to establish a company with a capital of 20 million yuan. Generally, new companies do not have such a strong investment. Looking at the assets of some well-known companies when they go public, they are only about 30 to 40 million yuan. Anfeng's pace is very fast. Big, this must have enough hard power to support.

After everyone's negotiation, Anfeng finally invested 12 million to take 60% of the shares and became the controlling shareholder. Mrs. Sinclair contributed 4 million to account for 20% of the shares, and finally Roger, Anthony, George Shared equally with Old Blueline, 5% each.

Since it is a cooperative relationship, the managers of the company are recommended or recruited by everyone. Recruitment is generally only considered by small companies. You are either bankers or energy giants. They poach executives from other industries, or directly through their own Relational calls are preferred.

An Feng was at ease. He is not familiar with these aspects of operations. He is absolutely unsuitable to run a business. The only thing he can do is to be a qualified shopkeeper. to consider.

Including starting from site selection, to registering the company, recruiting employees, setting up department positions... If he does a lot of headaches, it is estimated that he will not be able to handle them in two or three years. Another point is that intangible influence is very important. With such a strong background, partners are still worried that they will not be able to walk away?

In the afternoon of the same day, they also inspected the company that An Feng said could not survive, and it was easier now. The shareholders brought along a team of managers, lawyers, appraisers, property appraisers... Waiwai checked it again. Originally, An Feng was worried about whether the device was damaged. Now he only uses his mobile phone to play with him. Finally, after hearing the conclusion, he will buy it if it is suitable, and it is not suitable to look for it elsewhere.

The result was quite appropriate, with the social relationship of the shareholders involved, the other party underwritten some amounts when reselling the equipment, and avoided a lot of taxes reasonably. It would definitely not work if An Feng came alone. After the two parties drew up the contract, they entered the topic of cooperation and began to contact their own teams.
