Chapter 703, Invisible Overlord(1/3)
the next day.
After reading the Sophie Investment Investment Report, Nan Yi started chatting with Jean Barde.
"John, what do you think the Paris housing market will go in the next few years?"
"Mr. Adam, did you know that there are many low-rent housing in France [low-rent housing]?" Jean Barde asked back.
"I know, I know that Paris does not lack civilian housing. If the requirements for public security and location are not very high, it is not too difficult to own a house in Paris, and..."
Nan Yi apologized first before saying, "John, don't blame me for being too direct. France is full of lazy people. They are not keen on work and are only immersed in enjoyment. They don't know how to save money. These people will never be able to afford a house."
"You are right. There are indeed many lazy people in France. They are just borers who eat state welfare. Damn, half of my income has been taken away to support these lazy people. Mr. Adam, I plan to register a personal company. Can my future salary be transferred to my personal company in the form of a contract?"
"No, this method seems to be compliant, but it's too lame. We Nanshi will not use this method. John, you don't have much salary, don't care too much about small money. The dividend will be transferred from Andorra, and every penny will enter your private account, it's your own."
"Okay, I didn't say it." Jean Barde shrugged and turned the topic back to the real estate. "Precisely because of the existence of low-rent housing, the French don't have to worry about housing problems at all. At most, they live in the northern suburbs, which is a little bit worse. Because there are too many refugees from underdeveloped countries like North Africa, the security will be a little bit worse."
“Well, what is the rate of housing ownership for the French?”
“About 55%.
"Those who can buy and build their own houses already have housing, and the rest are not available in their plans, right?"
"Yes."
“So, I want to explore high-end residential buildings, not civilian housing.”
"The prospects for high-end residential buildings should be very good. Not only the rich, but also the relatively wealthy people in other European countries like to come to Paris for vacation and also like to buy property in Paris. I believe that the prospects for high-end apartments that can be moved into with luggage in the future should be good."
"Well, maybe not just Europe, but also the wealthy countries in the United States and Asia. Romantic Paris is very attractive to everyone in the world. So you can pay attention to it and invest in real estate companies or direct investment."
“Invest a small amount?”
"Yes, don't invest too much, just enrich the investment types of Sophie Investment Control. Also, Viscount Castle needs to find buyers. If you encounter a high-end customer, you will be responsible for selling it."
"clear."
"It's not a formal dinner at 7:30 in the afternoon, so be casual."
"Okay, I'll arrive on time."
Walking out of Jean Bard's office, Nan Yi went to the reception room to call Sophie Marso, who was waiting bored there. The two went to the Grand Palace in Paris, where the exhibition hall of the auto show was.
As soon as he arrived at the exhibition hall, Nan Yi sent Sophie Masso to see the sports car by himself, and he carefully visited the booths one by one.
There are thousands of cars in the exhibition hall, and almost all mainstream vehicles in the world participate in the exhibition hall. If you can walk around the exhibition hall, you can basically understand the development of the current automobile industry.
Just as Nan Yi stopped in front of Peugeot's booth, Marion Valenberg came to him.
"one person?"
"Sophie went to see a sports car. By chance? Or did you make an appointment with Sophie?"
"I like cars very much, and I almost always attend any auto show," said Marion.
"You have a lot of cars?"
"Not many."
"Well, do a favor, please don't recommend your Chevrolet to Sophie. It's too fast, I'm worried that something will happen to her." Nan Yi said sincerely to Marion.
Marion laughed and said, "Ha, I like uniqueness. I don't want my friends to have it too, so please don't worry, I won't recommend it to her."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome, Adam, can you ask you a question?"
"Excuse me."
"Sophie isn't your only woman, right?"
"This question is very personal, but I'm still willing to answer you. Yes, she's not the only one."
"So, only when you are in the mood and have time will you come to Paris to see her. At other times, do you have to accompany other women?" Marion said with a bit serious expression.
"No, I've given most of my time to work. No matter which woman I can spend much time with you." Nan Yi slowly asked, "Are you interested in my private affairs?"
"No, my mother is a poor woman, and I don't want my friends to become a poor woman."
"So, your Valenburg surname is that Valenburg?" Nan Yi pointed to the north and asked.
"I just inherited a surname and I have no other relationship with the Valenburg family."
"It is her honor for Sophie to have you, a friend who truly considers her. You Westerners pursue romance, and we Easterners pay more attention to responsibility. I cannot give Sophie 100% love, but in other aspects, I will do 12% of it. You won't think that love occupies most of the meaning of life, right?"
"Haha." Marion smiled, "No, although I never worry about food and drink, I know very well that for most people, bread is always more important than love, and I cannot be Juliet."
Nan Yi did not correct Marion. It was not very appropriate for her to use Juliet as an example. The meaning was already in place and he could fully understand it.
A lady from the Valenburg family, even if she is just an illegitimate daughter, probably had only seen the sufferings of the people and had never tasted them personally. How could a person who had only seen pig runs know how smelly pig manure was?
"Adam, Marion, what are you talking about?"
Marion joked: "Sophie, we are talking about the price, your Adam has promised to rent him to me for a week."
"No need to pay, just treat it as a probation period. If you use it easily, we can sign a long-term lease contract."
"OK."
"It's very good. You two are negotiating slave transactions, but they are not shy away from slavery at all."
"Ha, Adam, you have no say." Sophie Marso laughed.
"Okay, you two are bargaining slowly. I'll go over and take a look. I'll come to find you later." Nan Yi pointed in a direction and said.
"Adam, wait, accompany me to the Ferrari booth first, I caught a car." Sophie Marso called Nan Yi who was about to leave.
“f40?”
"Yes, accompany me to try the car." Sophie Masso said as he grabbed Nanyi's arm.
"All right."
Sophie Masso walked in front and the three walked towards Ferrari's booth together.
As soon as he walked to the booth, a middle-aged salesperson walked over to the three of them, "Hello, three, what can I do to help you?"
Buying a sports car and giving away beauties is not a marketing method to try all the souls. Especially in this era, people are not very particular about efficiency. Buying a car is buying a car. Few people will buy a car and squeeze out time to pick up girls.
People who buy sports cars pay more attention to the sports car itself, rather than the collateral effects brought by sports cars. Since they focus on the sports car itself, there are naturally more professionals who are responsible for answering some more sharp and accurate questions.
"F40, I want to test drive it." Sophie Masso said.
"Okay, Miss, please come with me, there is a test drive venue behind." The middle-aged salesman made an invitation gesture.
"Adam, go with me."
"No, you know I don't like sports cars, Marion, go with Sophie."
"Sophie, I'll go with you."
"All right."
The two women left with the middle-aged salesman. Nan Yi turned around a red F40 exhibition car on the booth, and his hands touched and knocked on the body from time to time.
For Nanyi, the f40 is not flowable enough, the body looks concave and convex and convex, not smooth enough, and looks like a large plastic toy. Except for the front windshield, several other pieces of window glass are acrylic. When you open the door, you can see that there is not even a door handle on the inner wall of the door, only a horizontal rope is hidden in the depression.
When he walked to the front of the car, Nan Yi tried to lift the car and easily lifted the front of the car.
"Four wheels, not weighing five, six, seven or eight tons, can they be considered a car?"
Nan Yi estimated that the f40 was at most about one ton, tied a thread. As long as the wind was a little stronger, it could be used as a kite.
"Headache."
Nan Yi didn't know how to dispel Sophie Marso's idea of buying this car. The driving experience of this car must be bad, and it is very difficult to stop it from buying it.
"School Beauty, I'll set a route for tomorrow at noon."
Unexpectedly, he would not let Sophie Marso buy a car, and Nan Yi had to leave early, so he would not have time to drive.
Nan Yi waited for a while, and Sophie Maso and Marion returned. Sophie Maso looked very happy physically and mentally, and came to Nan Yi lightly and said, "Adam, it's so comfortable to drive the f40, I decided to buy it."
"If you want to buy it, buy it and pay it yourself."
"Of course, you wait a moment, I'll pay." Sophie Maso jumped and walked towards the middle-aged salesman who was following behind.
“Is 2.38 million right?”
"Yes." said the middle-aged salesman respectfully.
Without saying a word, Sophie Masso took out the check book from his own bag, spread it out, wrote a check in the air and tore it off, handed it to the middle-aged salesman, "Fill the oil and change the engine oil."
"No problem, we have gifts, please rest assured."
The middle-aged salesman's face was full of joy, and Sophie Marso's request was all small things, so he turned around and said to another staff member: "The best engine oil, fill with gasoline."
"Please go here to go through the procedures."
After the middle-aged salesman gave the order, he led a few people to the rest area to wait, first served a few cups of coffee, and then went through the procedures with Sophie Marso.
Sophie Marso was going through the procedures, and Marion was bored, so she turned around and talked to Nan Yi.
"Adam, are you going to India soon?"
