most charming

Lin Tao looked at Stephanie in surprise, while she said with a smile on her face, "How is it? My Chinese has improved?"

Lin Tao praised: "It's not just progress, it's amazing. You can understand our way of chatting. It's not so good."

"Unfortunately, I'm just saying that the above is not good enough, and the pronunciation is always not standard." Stephanie said with a smile, "Okay, now back to the topic! I think Director Zhao's proposal is very good, but there is still a legal consultant!"

Lin Tao and her looked at each other, and said in unison: "Li Hui!"

"Yes, it's Mike." On Stephanie's side, she still prefers to call her English name, and the name with the surname in front is always difficult to pronounce. "He is an authoritative task in the legal field on the West Coast. As long as he says it can be acquired, he can acquire it. As for taxation and liabilities, I can ask my father to come forward to ensure that there will be no problems."

"You little guy is really suitable for business, or I'll find you a job in the company." Lin Tao repeated the old saying.

Stephanie continued to shake her head like a rattle and said, "No, it's fine now."

"Of course, things are not as simple as I imagined, but if we talk about it, I'm afraid we will make a lot of money." Stephanie said.

"That's another story." Lin Tao said to Zhao Anhua, "Director Zhao, give me a contact person."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Anhua immediately postponed the following party, then contacted there, and made an appointment to meet in half an hour.

Lin Tao called Li Hui over. Stephanie was very familiar with finances, and it would be no problem to use her as a substitute for the time being.

In just over 20 minutes, Li Hui arrived, and began to complain when he entered the door: "You are too anxious, I still have a case to study."

Lin Tao smiled and said, "I'm not even willing to give you a chance to make money?"

Li Hui's eyes lit up when he heard about the money, and he sat down and asked, "How do you make money?"

Lin Tao said the matter again, Li Hui frowned slightly, and said: "Under normal circumstances, I would not suggest doing this, after all, it is more troublesome. If the date of your purchase is very close to the time of prosecution, it will be awarded to you in the end. I don't know how long it will take, it may even be a few years, and by then all the money you spend will be thrown into it, which is not worthwhile."

"What if we could squeeze the money to a minimum?"

"It depends on how much it costs. It's definitely worth around eight figures, but the other party may not sell it!" Li Hui didn't believe that even if the other party wanted to make a fortune, he would definitely not sell the theater for tens of millions. Too cheap.

"It's up to people!" Lin Tao chuckled.

The four of them had just chatted for a while, when the doorbell rang, and Zhao Anhua went to open the door himself, and then walked in with a chubby white man, dressed very cleanly, but with a bad face.

"This is Peter." Zhao Anhua introduced the three of them one by one.

At first glance, Peter was a veteran in the mall. Seeing that the other party's boss, lawyer, and even accountant were there, he knew that there was something to be said about today's matter, and it might be possible to discuss it on the spot.

After sitting down, Peter said, "Since you are interested in my theater, let's get to the point."

Stephanie asked, "Mr. Peter, how much do you plan to sell it for?"

"At least 1.5 million US dollars. I have more than 300 theaters under my management. Although they are all in second-tier cities, the income is not bad at all..."

Before Peter finished speaking, Li Hui interrupted: "Mr. Peter, I need to remind you that it is because of your high income from the theater that you are about to face high tax evasion charges. If the prosecutor sues, your All assets will be frozen, if you are convicted, I am afraid that the auction of the theaters will not be enough to repay the debt?"

Li Hui's name was already very intimidating to Peter, but now he said it so definitely, it was even scarier than what his lawyer said, cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead, and he was embarrassed to wipe it off, looking ridiculous .

Lin Tao laughed secretly, this guy is too timid, he sweats like this after being frightened like this, if it really happened, he would have to be hospitalized directly.

Zhao Anhua said: "Don't scare Peter, talk about things." His rescue didn't have much effect, Peter didn't want to go to jail, as long as he got involved in legal issues, he would be a little confused.

"Mr. Peter, I hope you can be more realistic. Even if your theater chain is worth 1.5 million US dollars, I will not buy it at this price. There is an old saying in my motherland, which is 'Ask for the price, and pay back the money when you land', so now I Ready to bargain, are you ready?"

Lin Tao firmly controlled the initiative of the conversation, and Peter was guided, so he could only nod.

"$3000 million!"

"Impossible, it's too little!" Peter jumped up from the sofa, as if sitting on a needle, his eyes widened, his round face flushed. "Are you kidding? It's only one-fifth of the price. You're taking advantage of the fire, not a business!" He yelled at Zhao Anhua angrily, "Zhao, I came here only because I believed in you, but your friends are a little bit It’s too much, to take such a small amount of money, do you think I’m a beggar?”

"Peter, you are only a little bit better than a beggar now, but when the prosecutor sues you, you will be worse than a beggar!" Li Hui sneered with a stinky face, "Let me tell you with my professional knowledge, at least 10 years or more Imprisonment, and facing a huge fine, do you let the hard work of the first half of your life be handed over to the state?"

"This, this..." Peter was still afraid of going to court. As soon as Li Hui spoke, the battery ran out, and he sat on the sofa again, pulling his hair which was not much in the first place. "But... you gave too little, too little!"

Lin Tao said: "Well, I'm adding some weight, and the 3000 million US dollars will arrive in time. You can take this money to live in my home country, or to some countries in South America that have no extradition clauses with the United States. I believe you will live It's very nourishing. Only here, you can entrust Mike with full authority to handle the lawsuit, I think with his reputation, you should have nothing to worry about?"

"Really?" When Peter heard that Li Hui would help, he immediately became hopeful. "Mike, if you are willing to help, I can send you a few theaters, as long as..."

"Impossible!" Li Hui shook his head and said, "Unless you are willing to transfer the theaters, I will not intervene in your lawsuit!" He is very clear that several theaters still need to operate by themselves, and there are not many turning heads throughout the year.But if you help Lin Tao negotiate this business, even if it is a shareholding, you will get a lot of dividends for a year, which will save you a lot of trouble.

"Zhao, tell me!" Peter also saw that Li Hui was firmly on Lin Tao's side, so he turned to Zhao Anhua for help.

"Peter, I'm sorry, I can't help you either. To put it bluntly, I'm just an intermediary." Zhao Anhua shrugged helplessly. It's not that he was lying, but that he really didn't understand this aspect.

"Peter, I think the price of 3000 million is fair. Don't forget that although more than 300 theaters make money, they also have high expenses. Even if there is no tax evasion, you should not be an elite for long?" Stephen Ni made a simple financial calculation, coupled with the temporary online search for treatment, and knew that Peter's theater chain was close to losing money.

"Lin, from my professional point of view, 3000 million is a bit expensive, and the maximum is 2200 million." Stephanie really has the talent to take advantage of the fire, and she lowered the number by 800 million.

"No, that's absolutely impossible!" Peter screamed immediately, his round face was full of tangled facial features, and his appearance was ridiculous. "3500 million, I want cash, not a check!" Peter gritted his teeth fiercely, and announced his bottom line. If the price is lower than this price, he would rather be seized than sell it.

Lin Tao and Stephanie looked at each other, seeing that her eyes were full of joy, and knew that the price was quite a bargain.Then he glanced at Li Hui again, he also said that there was no problem, and then said: "Mr. Peter, happy cooperation!" He stretched out his hand.

Peter reluctantly shook hands with Lin Tao. After all, in his opinion, Lin Tao's behavior was just taking advantage of the fire.

"$3500 million in cash, you can take it away as soon as the contract is signed. In addition, you can go back and prepare a power of attorney, and the lawsuit in the United States will be handed over to Mike, who will be fully responsible."

Li Hui nodded and said, "Peter, the power of attorney and power of attorney are necessary documents, I hope you can prepare them."

Hearing what they said, Peter felt a little more at ease. At least he had troubles in the country, and Li Hui could come forward to solve them. With him, even if he had problems, he wouldn't be in too much trouble. Li Hui's name is a golden sign on the west coast. , just the name can make people feel at ease.

Zhao Anhua sent Peter away, and when he returned, he saw the three of them gathered together, muttering something in a low voice.

"I said, you are really ruthless. It is really unusual to buy a theater chain worth hundreds of millions of dollars for 3500 million."

Lin Tao said with a smile: "I think he knows his business is not small, and he is anxious to take the money and run away, so he lowered the price severely. If he is confident that he can win the lawsuit, even if I pay 1 million, he will never buy it. Yes, at least a few more years of profit?" He turned to Stephanie.

"Well, at least three to five years will not be a loss."

"You see, the main reason is that he has a guilty conscience." Lin Tao smiled so brightly.

"I don't care about anything else, as long as the business is done, it won't be a waste of my matchmaking." Zhao Anhua sat down with a smile.

"Okay, now we are going to divide the spoils." Lin Tao clapped his hands, "Director Zhao is the middleman, 5% of the shares, no more and no less, don't refuse." Zhao Anhua naturally has no idea, the money sent to the door is not enough Fool.

"Stephanie helps manage the finances, and the same 5% of the shares." It's not that Lin Tao is stingy, but the accountant can also hire others. The money is equivalent to giving to Stephanie. If she hadn't kept the price down so much before, it would not be easy to negotiate .

"Li Hui's 10% shares, don't worry about anything, just wait for dividends every year." For Li Hui, 10% is not too much, but it is indeed not too little. Consultants' fees are calculated separately, and they are all earned.
