America’s Big Hero

(PS: Sorry, it’s the Chinese New Year and I’m a bit busy. By the way, there are seven days off for the Chinese New Year. Are people with bad code words eligible to ask for leave?)

...

As for the environmental protection business, old man David was still unwilling to give up after repeated considerations.

No matter how much you are a capitalist, you can't push out hundreds of millions a year, and there will only be more industries in the future.

Fine pruning is a bloated industry with no prospects, rather than grabbing branches full of fruits to break!

crazy!

"You should set up an investment company alone." The old man David did not show the slightest embarrassment, but said with a confident look: "Set up a few more, in the United States and abroad, and hold shares with each other. skin, and then go to hold the waste recycling business separately, and then operate and go public.”

"Controlling 40% of the shares in hand, it is enough to maintain the right to speak and a veto, which can also return funds."

"The company is handed over to professional managers to operate and cut clean on the surface."

Xiao En nodded without much hesitation. In the future, vigorously developing electric furnace steelmaking will require a large amount of scrap steel. Of course, it is impossible to expect to buy it by yourself, but you can't hand over all the channels to others. That is handing over the lifeblood!

I talked about the garbage disposal industry, and then I talked about electricity, which can be attributed to the energy industry.

The power companies in Sean’s hands are relatively scattered, and the American side is located in New Jersey. After several years of development, they mainly supply the electricity needs of New Jersey and New York, accounting for 80% of New Jersey’s electricity supply and 15% of New York City’s.

The others are all abroad, including Colombia, Sri Lanka, Morocco, and Lithuania, and they are also an international group.

"This..." Old man David took a deep breath, "How's the profit?"

He didn't dare to say that he had cut it off. The experience just now made him a little confused. The profit of the things made by the brat was beyond imagination. The old man... was full and couldn't eat any more.

Sean's separation from the family is really too clean. It's not that the old man David is incapable of getting accurate business information from Sean's side, but that he is a grandson, so it's hard to do it.

He was afraid that Sean would blow his hair!

No one would dare to change someone else in the family, but this kid in front of him is like him...

Back then, he just hid behind the scenes and watched the eldest brother and younger brother confront each other, and finally struck a fatal blow when they were both wounded, and finally ascended to the throne of the helm of the family.

He found that Xiao En was too vengeful.

"Profit, it's okay, it's just some pocket money. You know, these countries are not rich. In terms of profit ratio, the United States accounts for 60%, and the total annual profit is about 300 million. However, the investment is very large. Over the years, I Not only did I not get a penny, but I also have to invest a lot every year." Speaking of this, Sean is not very satisfied.

"Colombia, Sri Lanka, and Morocco have all had good development momentum in recent years, but the better they develop, the greater the electricity consumption, and the more I need to increase installed capacity or build new power plants. If this momentum continues, I don't even know when I can stop investing!"

"Chemical energy power plants have a lifespan. I'm afraid that after 20 years, the power plant will be phased out, and I will fucking invest in rebuilding it!"

The old man David lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, but he couldn't tell what mood he was in.

It's quite complicated.

"What do you think, are you going to go deeper?"

Sean tilted his head and thought for a while, "On the Colombian side, the relationship between the Colombian president and me is in the honeymoon period, and several rebels have signed an armistice agreement with the government after their efforts on my side, Bob Luo that guy was also sent to have his head removed, domestic security is much better than before, and the market can be said to be thriving."

"Of course, I don't expect them to make much money. What I consider is to control the lifeline of electricity in Colombia. The same is true in several other countries. There must be something in hand."

Old man David looked at Sean in surprise, he didn't expect Sean to do it for this, "You are not a Colombian, the effect of the power lifeline in your hands is not that great, just like the Middle East once, over there The first oil field in China was created by Rockefeller."

"I know, so I chose a group of people there." Sean chuckled, "A group of real Colombians, I secretly paid for them to study in the United States, make friends in the United States, integrate into American society, and ensure that they The food and clothing of the family, and now the first batch has returned to Colombia."

"Ah!?" The old man David was surprised by Sean's eyes just now, but now he is surprised by Sean's ambition and practice, "What are you going to do?"

"It's called being in Columbia and having a beautiful heart." Sean put on a weird smile, "I'm here to contribute to the better development of Columbia and help them cultivate talents. How about it, it's great."

"Every year, a group of people are selected and sent to the United States. The selection criteria must be that they were born in the poor, intelligent and sharp, and suffered a lot in childhood and adolescence. They have no affection for Colombia and only remember suffering."

"I train them, let them open their eyes to see the world, and see what human rights, freedom, and democracy are. They must be the backbone of Colombia in the future and cannot be ignored!"

Old man David took a deep breath, and couldn't be more satisfied looking at Xiao En, what a big grandson!

Young people have imperfect worldviews, and the smarter and studious they are at this time, the more dangerous and reactionary they are.

This kind of person is very easy to control.

He believed that Sean must have left a lot of evidence, written and video evidence, and he was not afraid that these people would be disobedient.

Besides, if you cast the net widely, it doesn't matter if some of them fail to meet your own requirements, just crush them to death, even if the 'success rate' is only one-third, that's enough.

When one gangster falls, thousands of gangsters stand up.

In several other countries it is believed that Sean has also done it.

The U.S. government has been playing this trick, including major American families and companies.

Cultivating some elites and sending them back to their country to help them become opinion leaders can easily arouse public opinion, and it can also easily set off some trends.

Whether it is singing praises for the big families, or singing praises for the big companies, and acting as an endorsement, they are all good players in the battle.

Rockefeller did too!

It was first in the United States, and now it is available in major countries around the world. It supports students to study with scholarships and other means, and supports a group of experts and scholars through scientific research, charity, and social research.

At the level of Rockefeller, fame is much more important than a little money.

It's just that David really didn't expect that Sean had already started planning at a young age.

"How are you going to use it?" Old man David became interested.

"Experts, scholars, university professors, directors of important government departments, etc., it is impossible to run for president anyway. The term of office of the president is too short and too dangerous." Sean said with a smile.

"Uh..." Old man David froze for a moment, and asked with a look of astonishment: "You, are you trying to manipulate their government?"

"This is impossible!"

"No, no, no, it's called influence. Do you understand influence?" Sean waved his hands again and again, "I never thought about manipulating Colombian politics. What does that have to do with me? That's the business of the US government. What I want is to integrate, to be with the The Colombian bond means common development and a harmonious win-win situation.”

"I have two children of Colombian descent, and I will let them and their mother become Colombian citizens."

"What?" Old David's face was full of disbelief.

"Don't just focus on the United States. If you have more children, you can do whatever you want." Sean spread out his hands with a look of complacency.

The mother is Colombian, Sri Lankan, Moroccan, Brooke, Thai, Malay, Indonesian, Hong Kong... The child can naturally blend in, and no one can deny it.

If you blend in, you will become a real local after decades!

Old man David rubbed his hair. He was shocked by the whims of young people. What he thought was that ten thousand Rockefellers were spread all over the United States. Already thinking globally!

Can it be realized?

Old David doesn't know either, but this idea is indeed too tempting.

Sean is absolutely sure!

Old man David is an out-and-out American, and he is also an American at the top. He doesn't understand the views of those in backward countries at all, but Sean knows it too well.

In my previous life, I have seen a lot of people feel overjoyed by which celebrities have Chinese blood, and hope that they will become Chinese nationalities.

This will make them feel proud.

This pride may come from the attractiveness of one's own country, or from a kind of inferiority complex. Sean doesn't know the specifics, but he knows that such people are very popular and marketable.

A sentence of four or six incomprehensible Chinese is the wealth code...

What's more, Xiao En has laid a good foundation there, and if he can't support it with so many conveniences, then go and eat and wait to die!

Anyway, there are many sons, so if one fails, just change it!

wholesale!

"Okay, let's not talk about this. This is twenty years later, it's too early to think about it now." Sean coughed lightly, waking up the pensive old David.

Old man David's face froze, he suspected the day Sean said he didn't see! !

But he has no proof!

"Since you are planning for twenty years, you might as well do it more simply." Old man David said, "It's not just electricity, I know you also have some messy investments in these countries that don't involve the backbone. Let’s pack and cut them together this time!”

"How to cut?" Sean was taken aback. He put them all together for easy management, sharing with technology, and facilitating capital operations.

Doing business abroad is a little bad, the settlement is very troublesome!

Colombia is better off, sending a large amount of drugs to the United States every year, causing them to have a lot of dollars in their hands.

Don't care about black and white, anyway, the money Sean earned in Colombia can still be exchanged for US dollars.

But it is difficult for other countries! !

Most countries have trade deficits with the United States, such as exports of 10 billion U.S. dollars and imports of 12 billion U.S. dollars. These countries have no U.S. dollars at all!

Sean's business in many countries is settled in national currency.

No one recognizes these currencies when they are out of their countries. They are like waste paper. Even if they are soft sister coins 30 years later, they are not easy to use when they are out of the country.

What about the coins in Sean's hands?

Invest locally in other industries!

This is also for tax avoidance. If there is no profit, you can pay a lot less tax, and the investment can also be tax deductible.

This is not a small workshop, and it doesn’t mean that I can get some past if I get some.

Therefore, each company is interconnected to facilitate the transfer of excess currency.

"I know that this will cause a lot of trouble, but the advantage of cutting is that you can start to integrate into the local area now, use the names of these countries, put on the shell of these countries, and absorb some local shareholders. Isn't it just right that you start sending people back one after another? After becoming a domestic company and brand, after more than ten or twenty years, no one will remember that this is a foreign company when newcomers grow up." David said solemnly.

Arowana, Zhonghua Toothpaste, Harbin Beer, Dabao, Minute Maid... and other names appeared in Sean's mind instantly.

It's just that the old man David's suggestion is to operate in reverse, not to acquire a local company, but to let a "local company" acquire itself!

Um?

Sean suddenly had some associations that he shouldn't have!

Lenovo is not a good thing!

National enterprises, international...ah bah!

However, there are many successful cases of this method, so Sean accepted it immediately.

I am an American, how can I worry about the hearts of other countries in my life!

Old man David suggested that those miscellaneous industries would have a place to settle down, so there was no need to continue the discussion.

The rest is the main industry, and the old man also gave Xiao En a lot of advice, the first is cutting!

Sean wondered if there were any flaws in the old man's previous life, why did he feel that he had a special hobby for cutting! ?

"In the past, you were on the rise. Being famous is very important to you. It is a business card that allows you to get more benefits in many cases, but now you don't need it anymore." The old man David said in his tone It's a bit of a sigh, the development is really fast!

Sean immediately became amused, "So, when you mention Sean in the future, I will be the first thing everyone thinks of?"

He has always had an obsession, that is, when he introduces himself, he only mentions Sean, not Sean Rockefeller.

One is the son of so-and-so, and the other is the father of so-and-so. Those are two different feelings.

The old man David snorted rather arrogantly. He is over seventy years old, has a small stature, and looks a little cute. Sean smiled even more happily.

"Have you thought about what industry to focus on in the future?"

"Technology!" Sean said without hesitation: "Chips and AI."

"Huh? AI? Skynet?" Old man David thought about military outsourcing, media, and logistics. These are Sean's current core industries, plus Rockefeller's oil industry, perfect!

He never thought that Sean would talk about chips and AI.

The old man knows what a chip is, and he also knows AI, but... in his 70s, looking at people in their 80s, the ability to accept new things is really not good enough.

"Almost." Sean shrugged. He couldn't explain too much. In Terminator 1, Skynet, which controls the world, is 60 trillion floating-point operations per second. This is the limit of human imagination. !

Well, 0.6 RTX4090 graphics cards...
