Chapter 027: The Pursuit of Life

According to the American nature, after discussing everything, the tension disappeared. A few bottles of champagne were opened, and suddenly they turned from the enemy just now to friends. Everyone drank a few drinks together to celebrate the success of their cooperation, and then they dispersed by themselves if they had nothing to do, and stayed for negotiations if they had something to do.

Hawke stayed and briefly described the company's operation. His current task was to review new products. The United States also had the experience of engaging in agriculture without any consequences. Later, the abuse of fertilizers polluted water resources, which attracted the attention of the government. Therefore, if new fertilizers want to enter the market, they still need a lot of inspections.

"Mr. An, our company has cooperated with government departments many times in this regard and is proficient in submitting reviews. It is expected that the product will be able to be launched into the market in about half a year. At the same time, I am considering asking the company to apply for a bank loan and use this time to promote new technology to customers in the western region."

Listening to the CEO's development plan, it is basically a steady and stable job. It may be a bit lacking in motivation, but for companies that lack funds, the method is the safest. An Feng expressed his trust: "You are responsible for the specific work, I don't care about the process, I just want to see profits."

Bray was confident: "It will satisfy you, sir."

"I hope so." An Feng said. If he can't do it well, as the boss, he will hold a shareholders' meeting to speculate on him as the CEO and replace him with someone who is more capable.

But Anfeng didn't like trouble, so he made the only arrangement.

"John, you did this thing beautifully!" An Feng leaned against the comfortable swivel chair, sitting opposite him with his assistant John Adams.

This is the Chairman's Office.

The company's office building is not big, and An Feng almost never comes to work, but the company still arranged an office for him according to regulations, which is about 30 square meters, with a luxurious office desk and a leather sofa. Behind the desk is a black wood grain bookcase, all of which are books related to economic management. I leaned on the chair with no problem: XXX, you won't need to go to work tomorrow. It's really a bit like a big leader.

"This is exactly what I am good at." John has finally breathed a sigh of relief. The investment negotiations went smoothly, and it is worth his work overtime overnight.

An Feng was very satisfied with his prudence: "Considering that you have served as my financial advisor, accountant, assistant, etc., your professional quality is also good. So, I will give you an annual salary of 120,000 yuan. Your responsibility is to carry out the work for me, supervise the company's finances, and provide investment plans. How about it?"

John nodded happily: "I'm happy to accept this job."

An Feng knew he would not refuse because he had learned that in California, the annual salary of financial consultants is about 60,000 US dollars, and the income of other occupations such as accounting and investment management is similar. According to data from a US poll company, if a white family of four wants to live a more comfortable middle-class life, the annual salary cannot be less than 70,000 US dollars. Spanish-speaking South American immigrants are lower, and 50,000 US dollars are enough.

The salary given by the boss was almost twice, which surprised John. He graduated from a prestigious university and worked in a company for several years. He had a considerable income, but the sluggish economy led to huge employment pressure. The company was laying off employees and lowering wages, but housing prices and prices were rising.

He also lost his job in this wave, his wife and children need to be raised, and he bears all the pressure alone. As a talent in the field, it is not difficult to find a job of 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, but people always need to be improved, right? He handed over the information to the professional league with the idea of ​​giving it a try, and conducted a special assessment and paid membership fees, but there was no good news for several weeks in a row. Just as he was getting disappointed, An Feng found him.

Seeing the contract he had planned, he was excited to see the moonlight. His salary was higher than before, but his work pressure was smaller than before. His boss was a good person to get along with. No need to say it clearly. He knew that An Feng needed a subordinate who was familiar with financial management and could supervise the company.

Although An Feng did not point out, John knew that he could not let Bray Hawke monopolize the power of the company as before. The big boss did not interfere, but he always had to keep a close eye on him. Once there were any decision-making mistakes or financial problems, John, as an expert, naturally was not a vegetarian.

Just a few glances, one or two sentences, both parties know and understand.

The subordinates are smart, and An Feng will naturally be happy.

...

After staying in Los Angeles for a few days, An Feng traveled around the streets and alleys with Jenny. Seeing that he was worried about the things at home and did not want to make it difficult for her boyfriend to do it because of her, she suggested packing her luggage and staying with him for a while, just as a vacation. The tired An Feng naturally raised his hands to agree.

When they returned, they were taking civil aviation. An Feng always thought that such a short route was the only way to take a bus, but he was wrong. From Los Angeles to San Luis Obispo, the straight line distance is 260 kilometers, and it takes three hours to drive, but there are still flights, and it is still ten times a day.

The model is a small business jet produced in Brazil, which can accommodate 30 passengers and is sometimes used as a tourist aircraft. After boarding the plane, Anfeng boredly looked at the distribution map of California's airports. American airlines have developed, and larger areas have airports. Even Paso Roble, a small town with a population of 30,000 to 40,000 has airports.

An Feng sighed: "No wonder you all say that taking a train is more expensive than taking a plane!"

Jenny leaned her head against his shoulder. She liked this position very much, maybe because she felt safe. After hearing what An Feng said, she explained: "Almost all American trains are used to transport goods. Whenever you travel far, you will choose an airplane. You can occasionally buy a dollar ticket."

"It sounds unbelievable." An Feng had heard of this in China before, and his first reaction was: Are you teasing me?

"I promise this is true." Jenny looked up at him. "I have taken it before. If the flight rate is less than 60%, the airline will sell one dollar tickets to ensure the capital."

An Feng kissed her forehead and smiled and said, "I believe in you. I just wondered when my motherland will open up this policy."

"China? What is it like?" Jenny asked him.

"What do you think it is?" An Feng asked back.

Jenny sat up straight and said with interest: "In the past, China and many of my classmates and I were very backward in our minds. People often starved to death. When interviewed by TV stations, they had to swear allegiance to the party. They wore the same clothes and were monitored by the police for anything they did. Before marriage, ML would be illegal. But since the number of Chinese people traveling to the United States has increased, we think they are a group of very rich, famous brands. They bought four or five famous brands from France. When they bought three Rolexes worth more than 10,000 yuan. We were puzzled, what is China like?"

He actually felt like North Korea. He smiled and explained: "It's not as exaggerated as you think, but it's not as rich as you think. Big cities are similar to you, with bustling and congestion, and rural conditions are not as good as you do. They are relatively backward. In terms of transportation system, the eastern coastal areas are more developed."

Jenny asked, “So we have a big misunderstanding?”

"The misunderstanding is certain! Let me say it myself. Before coming here, many people and I thought the United States was a developed and beautiful country, but after real experience, I found that it also had its shortcomings: except for some metropolis, other places are similar to China, and some cities are still older. Highway traffic is developed, but many of your highways are just ordinary four-lane, and New York's roads are repaired, and dirty and messy also exist in the concentration areas of black people."

Jenny laughed: "You think of this place so well."

An Feng nodded: "Some people say that the benefits of the United States are the best, but I found that there are also beggars. In fact, the benefits of neighboring Canada are better than those of the United States, and the benefits of Switzerland are the top. Some people say that a house can be owned permanently, but they don't know that they need to pay a lot of real estate taxes, management fees and other projects every year. When the economic crisis comes, many people can't afford maintenance fees and have to sell the house for cheaper living; some people say that there is a dollar for sale, but it is actually located in a slum area. They have to worry about shooting during the day. The house only has a shell. If you want to live in a person, you have to pay at least 100,000 US dollars in decoration."

"That's what news and newspapers have deceived us?"

"I never believe in CNN, BBC, CCXX. I regard those broadcasts as TV series. Many of us are looking forward to the finale of N seasons of the show for decades."

"What is it?" Jenny asked.

An Feng hugged her with a smile: "Can you code my face first?"

...

In the end, Jenny still didn't get the answer.

But all she cared about was the warmth and flirting with her boyfriend.

Back in the small town of Paso Roble and breathing in the fresh air, Anfeng felt relaxed and at ease.

Although life in a metropolis is colorful, it is like a delicacy. It is evocative and will make you feel tired every day. He is a little lazy in his bones. He likes to sleep on a recliner, stare at the blue sky, or occasionally ride a horse and tease dogs. Only when he likes what he likes can he be motivated. He will be able to go shopping and attend parties. It is okay once or twice, but he will be annoyed if he has too many times.

He knew that he had huge wealth, which was great enough to change the world, but the problem was that he lacked motivation and lacked ambition. Otherwise, he would not have worked in one position for three years. If it were someone else, he would have been able to find another person, and he would have been honestly receiving that salary.

That is, the exchanges with other wealthy people at the auction made him feel that he should have a big pursuit of life. With a luxury house and a sports car, a yacht and a plane should also be realized.
