Chapter 1972 Frugal and Huge (Part 1)

People who eat melons are concerned about Guo Tailai's property because the Forbes rankings have been announced recently.

Since last year, the wealth of the richest man in China has exceeded 100 billion yuan for the first time, and this year it will continue to maintain this level. The wealth of the richest man has reached 120 billion yuan.

Guo Tailai's performance in it was not very conspicuous, ranking sixth with a net worth of 40 to 50 billion, closely following Chuxiong. It can't be said that there is no mountain or dew, but it is obviously not so eye-catching.

Guo Tailai’s wealth compiled by Forbes mainly includes Google shares, Taylor G watches, Tottenham Hotspur Club, AMC Cinemas, Artisan Entertainment and Marvel Entertainment abroad. In China, there are Mr. T's studio, Treasure Ship Hotel, Iron Man Building, business airport and Treasure Ship Fleet, as well as Zhengyifang Technology, design companies, etc. These wealth have accumulated a total of about five billion US dollars.

Obviously, the number of Google shares alone is more than this figure, but Guo Tailai has so many loans! Adding up domestic and foreign countries, the total number of loans exceeds 7 billion U.S. dollars. When calculated inside and out, the net assets are about 5 billion U.S. dollars, which is normal.

Based on this calculation, it is understandable that Guo Tailai can have so much capital investment. Various high-quality property mortgages, it is no surprise that loans can be made. Before, people wondered what Guo Tailai did with such a large amount of loans. Now that the press conference came out, everyone immediately guessed that it was invested in this civil supersonic private jet project.

No one doubts that Guo Tailai spent so much money on this project. Needless to say, the design of the entire aircraft has invested 10 billion yuan in aviation development alone, or at most a little over a billion dollars. With the current price of goods and labor, a civil supersonic aircraft has been developed from scratch. The engine, more than a billion dollars is just a drizzle, and the big head is still behind. As the spokesperson said, it is not surprising that we will continue to invest, perhaps 20 billion or more.

For Guo Tailai's willingness to invest such a huge amount in this private jet project, many people have mixed opinions. Those who praised Guo Tailai believed that this was a move to promote domestic aero-engine research, which deserves praise. Those who depreciate think that Guo Tailai's huge investment is only on a private jet with an unknown future, which is suspected of being a waste. With so much money, what can’t be done, and you have to invest it in this bottomless pit?

To be honest, most of them are demoted. The subprime mortgage crisis has swept the world, and the economies of almost all countries have been affected. All walks of life are investing cautiously, but Guo Tailai once again invests heavily because of his personal hobbies. It is really unreasonable.

With this money, what can you do? Do you have to invest in a black hole project? You know, the Concorde supersonic airliner has only been suspended for a few years, and there is no demand for this kind of supersonic airliner in the domestic and international markets. If there must be a reason, it is that Guo Tailai likes it himself, is rich and self-willed.

If it is for improving the country's manufacturing level, no one is dissatisfied, but it is obviously for Guo Tailai's personal enjoyment. Such a waste will be criticized by many people, even if it is donated to charity!

Of course, this kind of thinking is just thinking about it, or complaining in some unimportant Internet posts, and the official voice is only praise. In any case, Guo Tailai's investment objectively promotes domestic aviation development research, which is of positive significance. The same is true of official voices on the Internet, who made Guo Tailai the boss of many websites.

"Okay, no matter how much wealth comes out in the future, as long as you say that you invested in the black hole of aero-engine research, you can explain it clearly." After the press conference, Lin Jiayi and Guo Tailai were resting and relaxing together , smiled and said to Guo Tailai: "Anyway, we are not a listed company, and we can spend as much as we say, and no one will come to check the accounts."

As long as Guo Tailai does it slowly, this aircraft plus aero engine will cost tens of billions or hundreds of billions, which is very easy. Although many industries make a lot of money, profits can be easily filled in.

Lin Jiayi spent a lot of money in the United States and Europe. In addition to buying bargains from some companies, part of it was to purchase some non-core technology patents that General Electric and Luo Luo had promised before. The price is a little higher than the market price, about 10%, which makes the two companies very happy. But the money was originally earned from Americans and Europeans, and they also won some cooperation and rescue. It's a good deal.

"You've been busy all year this year. When you're done with the work you're doing, take a good vacation." Both women are very busy. Guo Tai sees pain in his eyes and can't help reminding: "Employees are also very busy." Similarly, excellent employees are rewarded with paid vacations, and they cannot always work and relax.”

"Let's talk after we're done! How can we get away now!" Mr. Mi lay directly beside him, with his head resting on Guo Tailai's lap, his eyes closed and he was speechless for a while: "Jiajia, the thousands of people on your side will have to be busy until the end of next year. Bar?"

"Thousands of people?" Guo Tailai was stunned for a while: "There are thousands of employees on Jiajia's side? Isn't it dozens?"

"Please!" Mi Feifei opened his eyes, gave Guo Tailai a coquettish look, closed his eyes with contempt, and said, "Jiajia has a team of more than a few dozen people, okay? How do you become the boss? Your employees have How much do you know?"

"Uh!" Guo Tailai couldn't help looking at Lin Jiayi who was also enjoying the nursing care with her eyes closed on the other side: "Is that exaggerated?"

"Don't listen to Mimi's bluff, it's not that exaggerated, there are only more than a thousand people." Lin Jiayi opened her eyes and said with a smile: "There are almost a hundred people in my working team, and there are two fixed legal and financial teams in the United States and Europe. , more than 100 people each, and about dozens of teams distributed in various countries around the world, each team has more than a dozen or 20 people, a total of more than 1,000 people. There is no way for the global economy, and everyone cannot be required to work overtime Looking at the market on the other side of the world, there must always be a local operation team in each country.”

"Then I have provided them with thousands of jobs just abroad?" Guo Tailai has always been confused in this regard, and now he couldn't help laughing and asked when he heard the news.

"More than that!" Lin Jiayi closed her eyes and continued to enjoy: "It's just that there are so many people in the financial team. After excluding those football clubs that existed before, film and entertainment companies, theaters, etc., excluding companies that hold stocks, and subsequent acquisitions Some manors, real estate, hotels, wineries, farms, ranches, fish farms, small airlines, transportation companies, security companies, import and export companies, law firms, asset management companies, financial companies, banks, etc., there are direct jobs More than 20,000, the indirect jobs must exceed 100,000."

"What?" Guo Tailai was shocked: "I still have a bank?"
