Two days later.
Heathrow airport, London.
Arthur, with a pair of sunglasses on her face, grinned bitterly as Amelia, in a black sweater and tight black jeans, stood at the airport gate, smiling and waving goodbye.
"Ah --"
seeing her disappear, Arthur sighed helplessly, while Eddie, who stood by his side to send Amelia to Amelia, gave him a cold look and sneered: "I really can disguise. I''m not willing to show it to anyone? If you do, two days ago, I believe you can try to get her to forgive you, but you didn''t do anything, didn''t you? "
"These days, I''m so busy that I hardly have time for afternoon tea. Negotiation with banks, research projects, new company recruitment and so on work one by one. Where do I have time... Forget it. It''s no use talking to you. "
With that, Arthur shook his head and turned to the airport hall.
Amelia finally chose to take off from the United States with her agent. In recent days, Arthur is really busy, and has sent a lot of phone calls and text messages to Amelia.
Perhaps it was that the media had not reported any more gossip in recent days, and Amelia''s heart was relieved a lot. At least, she no longer refused to answer Arthur''s phone calls, but also told him when to leave.
For Emilia''s pursuit of her ideal as an actor, Arthur has no reason to stop in any way. Just like he will not stop for anyone for his own career, everyone has the right to choose the life he wants.
Arthur''s explanation to Eddie also told Amelia that he didn''t lie. These two days, he was really very busy. He had no time to think about his love affairs.
Select real estate portfolio options, negotiate loans with bank representatives, invest in company meetings, and select interviewers for the formed advisory group... I have to rush to write a novel in the evening.
Now, for example, after sending Amelia away, he will immediately return to the city and continue to meet with representatives of his real estate investment company and the Bank of Barclays.
In two days, this was the fifth bank he had talked about. Not only did he choose the most favorable conditions for real estate investment loans, but also he wanted to select a capital assistance that could be cooperated for a long time through contact with these banks, so as to pave the way for his industrial purchase planning project in advance.
After all, if you want to play with acquisitions, especially continuous acquisitions and mergers and acquisitions, no one is going to play with his own money. What''s more, Arthur can''t get so much money at all. He can''t help but find a rich bank to help him finish his plan.
Back in the city''s investment company, Arthur saw that he was sitting on the sofa in the rest area outside his office, waiting for Oliver, the manager of his real estate investment company.
"Boss --"
"well, have you been waiting a long time?" Arthur did not stop and went on to the office, which had been opened by the newly recruited secretary.
Oliver followed Arthur''s heels and walked into the office. "No, I''ve just arrived."
"Sit down. What do you want to drink? Tell Jennie Arthur unbuttoned his suit and sat in the boss''s chair.
Speaking of unbuttoning while sitting in a suit, this is not only a etiquette habit, but also a suit culture, originated from Queen Elizabeth''s son king wells. Because he was so greedy for his mouth, he had to unbutton the bottom button of his waistcoat after every meal, and his entourage had to unfasten the bottom button. After that, it became an unwritten rule that everyone must abide by when wearing a suit.
But in fact, the most important point is that all suits are designed when standing, which is destined to be ugly when sitting down. The nobles were very detail oriented, and they were determined not to tolerate wrinkles in their clothes. So when she sat down, she opened her clothes. In this way, the suit can follow the curve of the body and naturally follow the trend. The lines look more smooth, and there will be no binding feeling.
"You were on the phone and said there was something to report. What''s up?"
When the secretary left with two cups of coffee, Arthur looked at Oliver, without any British politeness, and went straight to the subject.
Oliver doesn''t care about this either. After two days of contact and familiarity, most people understand the personality of their young boss. It seems that they are not interested in the English euphemism which is almost wordy. They prefer to be straightforward.
"Well, boss, I just got a message this morning that a castle on the outskirts of bath, built in 1775 and more than 200 years old, will be sold for $4.9 million. It covers an area of 160 acres. The original owner spent more than six million dollars to buy it. The other party is in urgent need of money and is willing to sell it at a low price. I don''t know, boss. Are you interested? "
hearing the news, Arthur could not help but raise his eyebrows and smile:" who is so stupid? At the beginning, it was worth more than six million dollars, which shows that the castle is not deserted, and it also has 160 acres of land. Ha ha, how short of money it is. "
Hearing the boss''s banter, Oliver couldn''t help chuckling: "the person who originally gave me the news was very tight lipped at first, but after a curious inquiry, I still told the client. The original owner of this castle is a world-class Hollywood star, Nicholas Cage."Hearing the name of the most favorite Hollywood star in his previous life, Arthur couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and asked curiously, "tell me more about it."
"It''s like this Oliver saw that the boss was so interested and said with a smile.
It turns out that this big star, who was extravagant and failed in investment, was deeply in tax arrears. Since 2007, he has owed nearly $6.3 million in income tax from the tax bureau, and also owed taxes from 2002 to 2004. But now the financial situation is getting worse and worse, so he has to put his house property on the shelf again to pay off the huge debts.
“。。。 As for the exact number of the film emperor''s debt, it is not known for the moment, but judging from his crazy sale of real estate under his name, I think this number will not be small. " Oliver finally shook his head with some emotion and sighed.
"Dada -"
Arthur leaned back on the boss''s chair lazily, his fingers tapping on the armrest of the chair. After hearing this, he asked with his mouth raised: "did you say that his mansion in Bel Air, Los Angeles, may be forcibly repossessed by the bank for public auction?"
"Yes, that''s what my friend said. Cage initially planned to sell the property for $35 million, but no one wanted to sell it. Although he greatly reduced the price to 19 million US dollars and 17.5 million US dollars, he still did not attract buyers. If the house could not be sold at the end of the period, the house could only be sold by the creditor and then forced to auction. It is said that villas may be sold for less than $10 million.
Moreover, this mansion has a long history. It was built in 1940. It is a landmark building in Los Angeles. The first two owners were Hollywood stars. It is said that it is also a castle style villa with a total area of thousands of square meters, and the decoration is very luxurious. "
When he heard the boss''s question, Oliver''s eyes brightened slightly, as if he had guessed something. Fortunately, when he called at that time, he asked more curiously. He originally wanted to boast after anecdotes.
Hearing Oliver''s reply, Arthur nodded to each other with satisfaction. It was very rare that he could listen to the news in such detail, whether he was interested or not. Details determine success or failure, attitude determines everything. He appreciates his subordinate''s ability to do a good job in every detail.
"I''m interested in both properties. You''re a professional. What do you think?" Arthur asked with a smile on his face.
"If the money allows, we can take it. If it is really like what my friend said, the castle in the suburb of bath is absolutely worth the money. With the personality of this big star, it must have been comprehensively renovated and decorated. It is really very cheap. Even if we buy it and increase the price and sell it, I believe that the Russians, the Chinese and the desert local tyrants will be able to sell it Very interested.
As for the Los Angeles luxury house, we haven''t seen the real photos, so we can''t judge it. But we can''t think of it any worse. After all, as the residence of Nicholas Cage in Los Angeles, with his extravagance, it''s absolutely luxurious decoration. Moreover, with 17.5 million US dollars, thousands of square meters, and 17 thousand square meters, the luxury houses with historical value and celebrity value, with the current recovery of the American economy Su momentum, the price of real estate will rise back sooner or later. Moreover, for luxury houses in international metropolises such as New York, London and Los Angeles, the price fluctuation is not big, so, make a steady profit
"Ha ha, are you sure to make a profit?" Arthur asked himself with a chuckle, and said to Oliver with a smile in his eyes: "I like the movies made by Nicholas Cage. He is one of the few Hollywood actors I like. It''s OK to say that he is an idol.
Since the idol is in trouble, I have the ability to help naturally. In this way, you can contact your friend, ask the situation clearly, investigate the real situation of the real estate, make sure that there is no problem, press the price again, and I will take both sets.
And, by the way, it would be better for Mr. Nicholas Cage to be present in person to make a deal. I want to get to know him and satisfy my wish when I was a young man. "
