This is just Ye Quanzhen’s safe house. Although the conditions are not very good, there is no shortage of things, and the beds are all new.

From this point of view, Ye Quanzhen is indeed loyal to his boss.

But after all, they were in a foreign country, so just in case, Ah Gui and Li Zhengyang stayed on guard for the first and second half of the night respectively.

Zhang Wen took this opportunity to enter the space and open the box.

The previously stored goods are almost used up.

After driving for several hours, hundreds of containers were opened. Except for a box of golden pillow durian which was discovered for the first time, the rest were mainly daily necessities.

I immediately had a full meal in the space and felt comfortable.

With a mouth full of the stench of shit, Zhang Wen exited the space and quickly brushed his teeth before going to bed. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to stink of shit when he met people early in the morning.

"...Boss (Hello Li), the first order is 1000 million. When do you think the goods can be delivered?" The next morning, Ye Quanzhen came back with red eyes. The excitement showed that this trip was worthwhile.

"Let the next batch of goods come over. It should be in time." Zhang Wen was not surprised by the number. Instead, he felt it was too little.

"Okay, no problem. The other party said that as long as there is no problem with the goods, the follow-up reward will start at at least 1 million." Ye Quanzhen trembled all over as he praised.

"That's right. I don't care who you contact, but I still want to remind you that making money is never enough. You have to know when to stop," Zhang Wen reminded.

"Well, I understand. My main business is still pharmaceutical manufacturing. Thank you, boss." Ye Quanzhen was very touched by Zhang Wen's reminder.

"As long as you understand, this place is close to Texas. I will let you buy some land later and launder the money slowly." Zhang Wen explained.

"I'll listen to you." Ye Quanzhen nodded.

Chapter 149 Beverly Hills

The land that Zhang Wen mentioned is the location of the super oil field that was discovered around 2020.

The oil field is located in the Wolfcamp Shale formation in the Permian Basin in Texas.

Recoverable reserves of crude oil are 200 billion barrels, in addition to 16 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 16 billion barrels of natural gas condensate.

When it was discovered, it immediately set a record for the largest unconventional crude oil reserves in the United States.

The estimated value at the time was as high as 1.1 trillion US dollars.

Equivalent to 5000 billion US dollars today.

It should be a desert there at this time. I don’t know if I can buy it, but I guess it won’t cost much.

If we can really complete a counterfeit money transaction of 1 million US dollars, it will be more than enough to buy that place.

However, the subsequent drilling development is a problem. Zhang Wen has no time to set up a mining company. It would be better to buy a mining company with rich experience.

"Jian Ning, I'll leave the plane to you. I'll take a civilian flight back. You can go back when the deal is settled."

Although he had encountered two failed acquisitions of IMB and Pingguo before, he also gained other things. Overall, Zhang Wen was satisfied. However, he encountered a tough problem when acquiring Davis Petroleum Company.

It’s not that the company doesn’t want to sell, but the price has been stuck at 353 and we’re still struggling with it.

The other party insisted on asking for US$3 million, but according to Huo Jianning's valuation of the company, it was only around US$1.5 million.

After three days of talks, there has not been much progress, and Xiangjiang still needs Zhang Wen to go back and take charge.

He could only leave Huo Jianning, the negotiation expert, to lead the team to continue the negotiation.

"Boss, I understand, but I feel that there must be other companies that are also in talks, otherwise the other party would not be so fearless and instead appear to be waiting for a good price." Huo Jianning guessed.

"Well, I thought of that too. I've already arranged people to investigate. Damn it, this is not Hong Kong. It's not easy to deal with. If it doesn't work, just increase it to 1.8 million. Call me if you want to raise it further." Zhang Wen said helplessly.

"Okay, I will definitely negotiate it for you." Huo Jianning promised.

The reason why they refused to let go of Davis Petroleum Company was that the wasteland that Zhang Wen wanted had long been under the name of this company, but it had not been mined due to funding constraints.

This is a serious matter. We must take it. It is a super oil field. How can we give up?

Zhang Wen took A Gui and Li Zhengyang on an American Airlines plane to Luoshan Airport first. Only here were there civil aviation flights that flew directly to Hong Kong.

Just before leaving, he decided to buy some more gadgets.

"Mr. Zhang, are you satisfied with this set?" As a top real estate agent in Beverly Hills, Claire had never seen such a difficult client.

I've already looked at four or five sets, and the highest value has exceeded 1000 million US dollars, but the person in front of me still says it's too small, as if he is very rich.

Claire was probably angry, so she pulled him directly to the French villa in front of them, which was called the Beverly Mansion.

This is not one of those villas worth millions or tens of millions.

It is a real mansion with a construction area of ​​3344 square meters, more than 5000 square meters of outdoor buildings and large lawns, which together occupy a total of 12 acres of land.

This is now the largest suite in all of Beverly Hills.

The location is also excellent, located on the hillside of Beverly Hills, overlooking the famous Sunset Boulevard.

This French-style mansion has a total of 9 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms.

The entrance hall is two stories high with marble staircases on both sides.

The walls and ceiling of the library are decorated with gilt.

It is particularly worth mentioning that the building's interior decoration uses a large amount of imported hand-carved limestone, French chandeliers, agate stones and 24K pure gold ornaments. It is as beautiful as a luxurious palace and breathtaking.

Seeing Zhang Wen looking left and right and nodding constantly, Claire was very proud, but he still didn't think that the person in front of him could afford it, as the price was as high as 2800 million US dollars.

Anyone who can come up with such a large sum of money to buy a villa now must be someone on the rich list. However, he, a top agent who knows all the wealthy people in China, has never seen anyone like Zhang Wen.

Since the completion of this luxury house, many people have seen it, but no one has ever placed an order, and the annual maintenance costs alone have resulted in a lot of losses.

But as long as the deal is done, the company can earn at least tens of millions, and he can also get a considerable commission.

"Not bad, how much is it?" Zhang Wen asked with satisfaction after reading it.

"The price is not cheap, 2800 million. If you pay the full amount, you can get the property for one year for free." Claire straightened her back and said with a smile on her face.

"No problem. How do I pay? Is a check from Morgan Bank okay?" Zhang Wen said as he took out a checkbook from his pocket.

"Uh~~~, are you sure?" Claire's waist bent instantly, her heart was about to jump out, and Zhang Wen in front of her immediately turned into a golden doll.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Zhang Wen asked with a frown.

"Probably not...I think so, please wait a moment." Claire hurriedly took out his cell phone and started making calls. He had not reported it beforehand, so as long as no one else came to see the house, the deal would be done.

Zhang Wen looked at the style of his cell phone and couldn't help but smile.

I didn’t expect the news from Huake to spread so quickly. It seems that they will expand the factory again.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm really sorry, I didn't think you would buy it.

So it was my fault for not reporting it to the company.

There are two more guests coming to see the house now. Could you please wait until they finish looking?

Don't worry, they won't buy it." After the call, Claire was sweating and apologized to Zhang Wen humbly. Even he didn't expect that it would be such a coincidence that someone would come to see the house.

"Okay, how do you know they won't buy it?" Zhang Wen asked curiously.

“Haha, because one of them is the owner of our place.

Look, she lives there, and the other one is her friend, both of them are public figures, but her friend is not strong enough, so she just came to visit today." Claire was relieved to see that Zhang Wen was so easy to talk to.

"Well, then I'll wait here?" Zhang Wen asked.

"Why don't you and your bodyguard go and rest by the swimming pool. I'll be there soon, and I'll give you a bottle of good wine as a token of my gratitude," Claire promised.

"No need, hurry up, I want to move in today." After saying that, Zhang Wen walked towards the tent by the swimming pool.

"Okay, okay." Claire replied, bending over.

After a while, two cars drove into the villa and many people got out of the cars. The first two were one black and one white. The black one was a man and the white one was a woman.

After Zhang Wen looked at it curiously, he immediately agreed with Claire's point of view.

It turned out to be the two of them.

Chapter 150 Li Zhen is Dead

They are good friends Michael and Brooke Stoudemire.

Brooke Stoudemire is that neighbor. As for Michael, this house is probably not the one he wants. As for financial resources, it seems that he is indeed a little short of it.

He just took off this year.

Sure enough, after a while, the two of them came over accompanied by Claire.

"Sorry to bother you. I heard that you were planning to buy this house? I'm your neighbor, and I came over to say hello." Brooke Stoudemire said with a smile. She was very tall and could basically look at Zhang Wen at eye level.

"Yes, what do you think?" Zhang Wen asked with a smile.

Brooke Stoudemire looked at Michael, who was wearing sunglasses, and he shook his head and said, "It's luxurious, but it's not what I want."

"Haha, that's good, it means the payment can be made." Zhang Wen smiled and handed the check for 2800 million U.S. dollars to Claire.

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment, the staff will be here soon." Claire's hands trembled as she took the check, and then she said excitedly.

"Well, let's go." Brooke Stoudemire and Michael nodded politely to Zhang Wen and prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment." Zhang Wen suddenly called out to the two of them.

The two of them quickly turned around and looked at Zhang Wen in confusion.

"Let me introduce myself. I am the chairman of Xiangjiang Shenhuake Electronics Co., Ltd. My name is Zhang Wen. Can I ask you to endorse my products?" Zhang Wen explained.

"Uh~~~" Michael didn't know how to respond to Zhang Wen's request.

"Huazhong? Is that it?" Brooke Stoudemire seemed familiar with the pronunciation of Huazhong, so she quickly took out a Huazhong mobile phone from her bag, shook it and asked.

"Yes, the endorsement fee for Huake mobile phone and Huake VCD is 50 US dollars. Is that okay?" Zhang Wen directly quoted the sky-high endorsement fee of that period.

"Wow~~~"

"Wow~~~"

The celebrity endorsement fees during this period were still very cheap, with first-tier celebrities only making 10 US dollars. Unexpectedly, Zhang Wen directly offered a sky-high price.

This is also Zhang Wen's own fault. He just heard that another basketball superstar named Michael in the 80s earned 50 yuan a year in endorsement fees, so he quoted the price based on this standard.

Brooke Stoudemire had no hesitation about the price and nodded frantically immediately.

Michael also nodded after a little hesitation.

"Okay, I'll have someone draft a contract now, and a team will contact you later. Is it okay for you to shoot the commercial?" Zhang Wen was overjoyed and said immediately.

"No problem, this is my private number, just call me." Brooke Stoudemire immediately picked up a sticky note and wrote down the cell phone number.

"Okay, I'll finish the house issue first. I'll come to you when it's ready. Let's do it tomorrow." Zhang Wen said with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah, no problem. We'll wait for you tomorrow." Brooke Stoudemire was so happy. She didn't expect that she would get an unexpected gain from accompanying someone to see a house.

As soon as the two left, Claire's staff arrived and were operating the typewriter to modify the contract.

Zhang Wen picked up the phone.

"Boss, what can I do for you?" John Lasseter's voice came out.

"John, can you shoot a commercial?" Zhang Wen asked.

Zhang Wen had no idea how to shoot the commercial and had to seek help from John Lasseter, the director of Vinx Animation.

As for the other great director, he kept silent, which was really a waste of talent.

"What ad?" John asked.

"It's the phone in your hand, starring Michael Jackson and Brooke Stoudemire," said Zhang Wen.

"Wow, no problem, where?" John asked.

"It's in Los Angeles. Come over tomorrow." Zhang Wen replied.

"Okay, I'll prepare it now and finish it tomorrow." John said confidently.

Today's advertisements are simple. Once the scenery is ready, the venue is found, and the actors are in place, it can be done in a few steps. It is far less troublesome than in later generations.

Reality does.

The next day, Zhang Wen found a lawyer to draft a ten-year endorsement contract, and proposed to pay the two of them a one-time fee of 500 million yuan each. Then the two, who originally thought the contract was too long, decisively signed their names.

Then just as he was about to rush to the airport, the shooting was completed.

After that, he just needed to do some simple editing before putting the advertisement on the market, and he left the rest to Huo Jianning.

When Huo Jianning heard the endorsement amount, he called Zhang Wen a spendthrift.

But what he didn't know was that Michael Zhang Wen alone made a lot of money.
