Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

"Volunteers are being recruited! Los Angeles Olympics volunteers are being recruited! Los Angeles, which will rekindle the torch after 52 years, needs your participation!"

"Torchbearer! Torchbearer! Not nine thousand nine, not eight thousand! For $3000, you can hold the Olympic flame yourself."

"Handsome sir, beautiful lady, are you interested in being a volunteer for next year's Olympic Games? Although there is no pay, you can meet many friends from all over the world in this event!"

In downtown Los Angeles, a group of student-like people wearing Olympic five-ring vests are distributing leaflets on the street.Carter, who just got out of the car, naturally couldn't escape the eyes of this group of people.
"Ask them, I'm not familiar with Los Angeles! A person who can't know the way, I'm afraid he can't become a volunteer!"

Carter was very patient with the students who were obviously participating in social practice activities.

While declining the other party with a gentle smile, he pointed to Anna and Joey who got out of the car behind him.
"Anna, are you interested in being a volunteer?"

"We've signed up!"

Smiling, the students who handed out the leaflets nodded, and after receiving a thank you and blessings, Anna walked to Carter's side:
"Are you going to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics next year? Both Melis and Jenny will participate."

"they?"

Carter was a little surprised that Melis would take the initiative to sign up as a volunteer? !

"Melice is required by the school, of course, it's not compulsory. She mainly stays with her friends, and part of the campus of the University of California, Irvine, has been requisitioned as a dormitory for athletes. As for Mom, you see, we all went, she It's boring to be alone at home, isn't it?"

"I just want to know, can she see the way in Los Angeles now?"

Smiling and shaking his head, Carter has no objection to his family's participation in public welfare activities.Arriving in an unfamiliar environment for the first time, without the company of neighbors in the past, it would be great if Jenny could meet some friends in volunteer activities!
The Los Angeles Olympics in 84 can be regarded as a milestone in Olympic history.

The first Olympic Games invested and held by private industrial and commercial enterprises, and it also achieved more than expected profits!

The total investment cost more than 2.25 million U.S. dollars, and the final profit reached 50 million. It was only one step away from achieving a [-]% return on investment, which is not unsuccessful!But...that's only for the los angeles olympic organizing committee
In addition to making Peter Uberroth famous, the companies that actually participated in the investment basically didn’t make much money if they only looked at their books!After all, the major source of funds, the rights to broadcast sports events, alone brought nearly [-] million US dollars to the Olympic Organizing Committee.
"I'm definitely not familiar with the urban area, but it's not a problem to say that near Melis School, Jenny, as a volunteer, can give directions to some foreign athletes, tourists, etc., and provide some basic help. Okay, let's go Stop by this place for lunch, their risotto is really good!"

"Okay, it's convenient and quick!"

Following Anna and the two into the restaurant, while passing by other tables, Carter's ears were filled with discussions about next year's Los Angeles Olympics.

Looking forward, but not a very good expectation:

"Let's see what they can do this time!"

"It's just that we don't take the hard-earned money of our taxpayers seriously. What's the use of this stupid Olympics!"

"Never mind them, as long as it doesn't cost taxes!"

"Tax money can't be spent, and the federal government doesn't allocate funds."

Along the way, except for some booths for recruiting volunteers, there was no Olympic Village construction project or sports arena construction project. Carter, listening to the discussions of these Los Santos natives, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Carter suddenly thought of a good idea!

"Joey, how's your work going?"

"Not too good! Oracle's recruitment requirements are very high, and I can't meet them."

"Recently, I won an audit student spot for him at the University of Irvine, and asked him to study systems. Carter, during this period of time, I have studied the relational database software market you mentioned, and the prospects are indeed not small! If you used to , HT can have this system, the work efficiency can be improved a lot, and it can save a lot of labor costs!"

As one of the heads of the procurement department of HT, Anna's market research work focused more on the practicability of the software.Think about the prospect of this software based on yourself
It can improve work efficiency and reduce labor, even if the price of one purchase is high!However, normal people know how to choose between short-term pain and long-term pain!
"So I recommend that you pay attention to this segmented field. How about it? Now you know how to study? I told you to go to college before, but you didn't listen to me. Now it's embarrassing? As far as I know, Oracle's corporate culture is not What a kind Santa Claus!"

"Think about it, go to college for a few years first, it's okay! There's still a lot of time!"

"Forget it, it's fine if Joey goes. I'd better move first, the time in the market is passing much faster than the time in our lives! IBM's R system will be launched after Christmas, such a big company It’s time to move slowly, we’re afraid we won’t even have a sip of the soup!”

It seems that in his bones, he is not a person who studies.Anna shook her head fiercely, perhaps to reassure Carter, and Anna added complacently:

"And our current conditions are much better than the average person, much better than before! I deposited the 200 million you gave me in the Bank of America, and the daily interest is a little more than 8 US dollars. Fifteen thousand a month , the money is enough for me to hire [-] employees, and the rest of the money can be used to pay rent.”

"OKOK, as long as you are happy!"

Looking at Anna, who narrowed her eyes with a smile and looked like she was taking advantage of her, Carter felt a little helpless.The thinking of small businessmen is not so easy to reverse.
Although, it sounds cool that this kind of operating cost is almost completely offset by interest.But how long can this thing last? !

It is only in the past few years that the outrageous high profits have caused this situation.When the environment returns to normal, I still want to be so relaxed.
Forget it, it’s useless to say more!
We chatted for a while, and learned about Melis' recent situation in the past six months, such as whether she secretly ran to those messy companies near Hollywood to interview models and actors behind her back; for example, how did she get along with her classmates in the new school? Like that.
After the idle talk, Carter mentioned his own affairs:
"Sister, I have something that I may need to ask you to look out for next year. This is the business card of Counselor Lin of the New York Consulate. You should put it away first. When the Chinese delegation arrives in the United States before the Olympic Games next year, you will take it with you. , on behalf of me to contact them."

"Aren't you not interested in the Olympics? Why?"

After receiving the business card from Carter, Anna glanced at it twice before putting it in her bag.

Anna has gotten used to being manipulated by this cheap brother in various ways.
"I'm not very interested in the Olympics, but that doesn't mean I can't forget it. If there are too many, don't worry about it. When the time comes, find an athlete named Li Ning in the delegation and sign his name and trademark rights overseas. The longer the period, the better!"
