000118 Learning

After sending them, Xiao Yifei drove to the headquarters of Fuguo, and Katherine warmly received him:

"Mr. Xiao, your money has been transferred to our bank. We will start to absorb stocks today and can be completed within a few days. In addition, we have increased your card permissions and also gave you a small gift."

After saying that, she smiled and handed Xiao Yifei an envelope.

"What is this?"

"You open it and you'll know."

There was actually a black credit card in the envelope. Xiao Yifei thought it was the legendary Luntong Centurion, but when he saw that the card was not.

"World Elite" (translated as the Extreme Card in China, it is the highest-end credit card launched by Mastercard to compete with the black centurion card of Yuntong. I am not sure whether it will be issued in 2009, assuming it has appeared.)

It seems that Mastercard's main competitors are Visa, Express and other companies, and they have all sued Mastercard for monopoly. As one of the founders and most important supporters of Mastercard, how could Fuguo give him credit cards from other card issuing institutions?

"For this is our highest-level credit card, I will ask you specifically what wealth elites like to build it."

Then Balabala introduced its services. In fact, it can be explained clearly in one sentence, "Please call the service line on the back of your card." Some people may be puzzled by this sentence, meaning that no matter where you are, no matter what trouble you have, no matter what needs you have, you can call this service line, and someone will wait for your phone number 24 hours to provide you with services.

Fuguo is also quite fun. He knew at first that Xiao Yifei had hundreds of millions of oil paintings waiting for auction, and he was willing to lend 200 million yuan to Xiao Yifei, but he only gave him a credit card with a limit of hundreds of thousands. He had already signed a entrusted financial contract, but he had to wait until the money was received before giving out the black card. If you don’t see the rabbit, you will be talking about them.

Although the annual annual fee for this black card is scary, Xiao Yifei still accepted the gift.

"Thank you for your gift, let's start doing the business."

This time, Xiao Yifei wants to buy 100 million US dollars of Apple stocks and 50 million Netflix stocks. It seems that the amount is very large, but it is not enough to pay for the same amount as the plate of these two stocks. Apple stocks are now priced below $190, and he can only buy more than 500,000 shares for this 100 million. The daily trading volume of Apple stocks is about 20 million shares, so these more than 500,000 shares are not enough. If it is a little stronger, the absorption task can be completed within one day.

Although Netflix's stock price is only below $60, the number of buyers of $50 million is less than 1 million shares, and the daily trading volume exceeds 1 million shares. I believe that people from Fuguo can definitely absorb them within a week. And even if these stocks are concentrated in a company, these stocks can account for less than 2% of Netflix's total share capital of up to 60 million.

Just as he finished speaking, Catherine stood up and invited:

"Let's go, Mr. Xiao, I'll take you to a place."

I took the elevator downstairs, passed two gateways, and took a special elevator to the underground. After passing another gateway, Xiao Yifei knew what she was going to take her.

"Mr. Xiao, this is our San Francisco vault. Please keep the information here confidential."

Xiao Yifei hurriedly agreed. It was similar to that in the movie. First, there was a biometric verification, then the two people turned two keys, and finally rotated the huge round wheel, and the door of the vault finally opened.

After passing the precious safe area, they came to the most important storage area of ​​the vault. There were piles of things on the wooden rakes, including green currency, white silver bars, and golden gold bricks. Xiao Yifei widened his eyes. Good things, it was such a good thing. He really wanted to get the piles of things into the space, so that he would not have to farm at all. He would just buy anything and just smash it with gold bricks. But he could only think about it. The big black hand of the security guard standing not far behind him could be placed on the gun holster.

"Mr. Xiao, we have two plans for your $50 million gold. First, if you choose the standard London BRICS, we need to wait for New York to ship it."

"Do you have no gold here?"

"We don't have that many standard London BRICS here, compared to you, you'll have about 50,000 ounces."

“What is another solution?”

"If you can just accept other standard bricks, we can deliver them now."

“What is the difference between these two standards?”

Katherine leads him to a pile of gold bricks:

"This is the standard London gold bricks, each 400 ounces, about 12.4 kg. Its purity is 99.5%. The piles of gold bricks next to it are 10 kg, and the purity is 99.99%.

"London BRICS is so low in purity? Not even 3 9?"

Katherine patiently explained:

"This is caused by historical reasons. The history of the London BRICS has been more than 300 years, and the conditions at that time could only be purified to this point."

Xiao Yifei's head turned around and he planned to count how many gold bricks were.

Katherine smiled:

"No need to count. This wooden shelf is 80 yuan, which is the standard way to put it in London gold. Mr. Xiao is our VIP guest, you can pick it up and try it."

Xiao Yifei picked up a gold brick without hesitation, and it was really heavy. This thing is about 25 kilograms per piece. You can't understand it at all. Things that are less than 30 cm long, 10 cm wide, and 3.5 cm high can actually reach this level.

Speaking of this kind of gold brick, there is an anecdote that you may have heard of before. There is a place where you can clamp the two sides of the gold brick from above with your thumb and index finger. As long as you can clamp it up, the gold brick will belong to you. In fact, this is about the Golden City near Johannesburg, South Africa. It is a famous gold mine in South Africa. After the gold mine was closed in 1971, it became a tourist attraction.

In fact, just by calculating the friction coefficient between the finger and the gold brick, the angle between the friction force and the gravity of the gold brick, the weight of the gold brick, and the weight of the gold brick, you will know that people can never clamp up a 12.4 kilogram of gold brick with two fingers. However, not being able to raise the finger does not mean that the gold brick is safe. Later, the gold brick was still robbed with a gun, and now even if you go to South Africa, you can't try it.

Xiao Yifei counted the piles of gold bricks.

"There are more than two tons of gold bricks in London here, why don't you say enough?"

"Those are kept here by other customers. Mr. Xiao, I suggest you keep the bricks here as well. It is really not safe to keep them yourself."

I have space, and no one can steal it.

“I have a safe storage location.”

"No, you don't fully understand what I mean. I mean, maybe you can find a safe place to keep gold bricks, but if someone knows this news, there are risks during transportation and will also bring hidden dangers to your personal safety. It's different to put it here. No one will know that you have gold, which is also a kind of protection for you and your family."

The last sentence touched Xiao Yifei. After all, he still wanted to take his parents over. If someone thought there was gold at his house, it would indeed threaten his parents' personal safety.

"Okay, then let it be kept here. I can come and check it out at any time."

"no problem."

"Then let's calculate it at the current price."

After the consolidation and adjustment in October, the gold price has now entered a new wave of rising market. When delivering at the current price, Xiao Yifei can take advantage of it.

"no problem."

After handling the investment matter, Katherine took Xiao Yi across the Bay Bridge to Professor Ward's office at the School of Arts and Sciences at Berkeley, Canada.

"Hello Professor Ward, this is what I told you."

"Hello, Xiao."

"Hello, professor."

"Catherine said you want to learn ancient Egyptian?"

"Yes."

"Learning ancient Egyptian is boring, I don't know if you can stick to it."

Yes, absolutely, only by learning ancient Egyptian well can the stone tablet in Isis space be translated more accurately. The words on the front of the stone tablet should be similar to those in Osiris space, but on the back of the stone statue, you must learn ancient Egyptian to figure out what is special about it.

Why did Xiao Yifei look for a house near Berkeley to learn the text of holy books? The ancient Egyptology at the University of California, Berkeley ranks among the top on the West Coast, and Professor Ward is one of the best. He originally planned to slowly find connections with the professor of ancient Egyptology at the University of Berkeley, but later he met Catherine from Fuguo Investment. Xiao Yifei knew that Catherine must have much more resources than him, so he asked her to help find a professor who could teach his own sacred calligraphy.

Catherine naturally would not neglect Xiao Yifei's VIP requirements, so she found Professor Ward after three turns and two turns. At first, Professor Ward was not willing, but American professors needed funds to do research. If they wanted to do research, they would need funds. They increased their funds, and the funds were definitely not as sufficient as private universities, so these research funds were mainly supported by sponsorship.

Wells Fargo, where Catherine is located, or many American companies, basically has a budget every year specifically for sponsoring university and research institutes. Although Catherine does not have the authority to sponsor the sponsorship of the Wells Fargo, her boss, Marshall, has the right. So under the bait of more than 100,000 sponsorship fees, Professor Ward fell.

"Yes, I'm very interested in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Didn't I say that interest is the best teacher? I can definitely stick to it."

"Then how is your education? Have you learned other languages?"

"I finished college in China, but I studied computer science. I taught myself German and French."

"Then why don't you apply for a postgraduate degree?"

"Professor, I don't know if Catherine told you that I have a winery in Napa. The management of the winery will take up my time, so I can't take more time to read. And I just learn the Holy Book style, and I can't even learn their pronunciations, as long as I can understand the meaning."
