Chapter 391

People often say that rich people also eat three meals a day, and they are not much better than them.

Three meals are correct, but the quality of the food is different. Just the caviar on sushi, a small can costs 20,000 US dollars. The tuna meat was cut from a bluefin tuna weighing more than 600 pounds. Just a meal for two people, the price was as high as 30,000 US dollars at the end, which was as high as an ordinary white-collar worker's salary for a month.

The rich people enjoy the best resources in the world, whether it is education, food, medical care, etc., what Ye Dongqing has now made it difficult for ordinary people to reach.

When others received harassing calls, they were nothing more than paying attention to stocks and investment management. He was so awesome. As soon as he finished the meal, he actually received a call from a Dubai company asking Ye Dongqing if he was interested in the Dubai World Island project. It is said that "the United States" has not been bought yet, and the price is only 41 million US dollars. He usually receives calls from top jewelers, auction houses, and high-end real estate companies, which means that private numbers have been spread on a small scale.

I haven't complained to the telecommunications company yet, because it's a bit messy and interesting. Some time ago, Sotheby's Auction House recommended René Magritte's oil painting "The Banquet" to him, and was finally obtained by Ye Dongqing for more than 70 million US dollars in the form of a telephone auction. Recently, he is also collecting pop art oil paintings by American painter Lichtenstein. It is purely a personal hobby. Nearly 100 million US dollars have been spent on three paintings of the painter.

In the words of the accounting firm - do you want to keep it and pay taxes without spending money?

Dubai World Island Project.

In 2001, a developer planned to build 300 artificial islands four kilometers away from the coast of Dubai, forming artificial islands in the shape of various continents in the world. The "America" ​​area is relatively large, so the price is also high.

Ye Dongqing said that he was interested, but in fact he knew that these small islands were difficult to sell. At the same price, he could rent larger and safer islands in the Bahamas, Hawaii Islands, Southeast Asian waters, Mediterranean waters and other places. So why should I buy an island that may be unfinished at any time and has a risk of sinking?

In my previous life, the subprime mortgage crisis swept the world, causing the World Island project to be unfinished. I don’t know if it will be successful this time. The seller thought he really wanted to buy it, so he even offered to help arrange a hotel for free and let him come and have a look.

I've never been to Dubai before, and my private plane is in New York. Ye Dongqing wants to go and play, but there is a small oil bottle at home that I can't let go, so I finally refused.

Reminded by this incident, the idea of ​​buying an island was once again formed in his mind. He had to pay taxes again in March and April. If he didn't spend some quickly, considering the income from last year, he would definitely have to pay a lot of money. It would be better to buy another island and come back for daily vacation.

Considering the relationship with Mahi and the fact that most of the time I can get the shares of the Atlantis Hotel in the Bahamas, I don’t have to worry about having no place to stay when I go on vacation to the Bahamas. After thinking about it, I finally chose the Hawaiian Islands and maybe I can customize a relatively good yacht.

Wealth is growing explosively, and there is no need to deliberately save money. For Ye Dongqing, it is most important to be happy now. In order to avoid the embarrassment of having money but not having life, I have also tested my genes recently. The conclusion is that it is relatively healthy, but it is possible to suffer from high blood pressure in my forties or fifties. From now on, I should start paying attention to my diet and increase my activity.

After discussing with Laura, they all thought that Hawaii was pretty good, so on the way home, Ye Dongqing checked out the news about the island to be sold on her mobile phone.

...

The Securities and Exchange Commission attaches great importance to Ye Dongqing's suggestions. Coupled with the concerns of Washington, subprime housing loans were suddenly tightened, and the Federal Reserve also intervened in it, announcing another interest rate hike to prevent the risk of overheating of real estate.

Credit rating companies cannot be defeated. They are backed by the global commercial credit system and have announced rectification news. They have revised the ratings of various subprime mortgage CDO products at the urging of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which has caused small-scale turmoil in the market and the losses are controlled within an acceptable range, which is similar to the predictions made by Ye Dongqing.

Ye Dongqing made a profit through Danshui investment and hedge funds, which was not large, about 70 to 80 million US dollars. Then he stopped paying attention to this matter and instead focused on the oil market, mainly looking bullish and using hedge to reduce risks.

A heavy snow covered New York, making it so cold that it made people want to escape.

After he made several calls and asked where there was a private island for sale, the high-end real estate circle seemed crazy. Many super brokers and property companies took the initiative to come to him, including Australia, Canada, Nordic, Southeast Asia and the Bahamas, which also made them look dazzling.

There was nothing wrong recently, Ye Dongqing simply went to Fiji. The country is located near Australia in the South Pacific. After staying with Laura for two days, he decided to buy an island here, and then went to Greece to buy Omfori Island for 46 million pounds.

Just when people were amazed that he had bought the most expensive islands in Greece, news came out that Bahamas Camellia and Seralvo Island in the Gulf of California, Mexico were acquired by Ye Dongqing, and a new real estate company was born. There was news that Ye Dongqing invested in these islands to build tourist islands.

In more than half a month, the world flew everywhere, spending about 500 million US dollars in total, which feels quite good.

In order to avoid being attacked by ordinary people, a real estate company was established to attach these islands to the bottom. Under the banner of investment, it is better for others to accept than telling people that it is for their vacation enjoyment. The subsequent renovation may cost another $100 million or 200 million. Some islands even have no water and electricity.

By the completion of the renovation, those islands will become more valuable, and small-scale tourist groups can also bring a certain amount of income, which is enough to maintain the daily operation of the island, so it cannot be said that they are losing money.

After being hit by the cold wind in New York again, Ye Dongqing began to miss the good weather in the southern hemisphere. Even on Seralvo Island, the temperature was much higher than that in New York. The cold air from northern China drove south from Canada into the United States and went to New York. There was no mountain range blocking the way in the middle. Compared with Seattle, which is close to the Pacific Ocean, it would be more livable.

The following days were busy and nothing big had happened. He participated in several activities, went to Philadelphia, and also went to Washington. In a blink of an eye, May began.

In the early morning of the 22nd at the end of May, long queues were lined up at the doors of Apple direct stores in various places.

iTouch will be available at 8 o'clock, with only 200,000 units worldwide. The next time it arrives, it may take two weeks to wait, so many anxious guys got up early to buy it.

There are many trial videos on YouTube. Ye Dongqing also posted her experience of using it through Facebook yesterday, praising it like a flower...
