A car stopped in front of Chen Zhao's house. A man in black alighted.
"Mr. Chen, Miss Amira sent me to pick you up."
"Okay, wait a moment." Chen Zhao had just woken up and hadn't had breakfast yet. "Oh, have you eaten?"
"Thanks, but no thanks." The man was very professional. He rejected Chen Zhao's invitation with a smile.
After breakfast, Chen Zhao kissed Fali goodbye.
Then he got into the car.
"Where are we going now?"
"Airport. Miss Amira is already waiting for you on the plane."
Chen Zhao boarded Amira's private plane. Amira was having breakfast on the plane.
"Morning, Mr. Chen. Have you had breakfast?" Amira's makeup was exquisite and she had wavy blonde hair.
Chen Zhao realized that Amira would change her hairstyle every time he saw her.
"Miss Amira, dealing with your hair too often is very harmful to your scalp."
Amira lost her appetite immediately. She looked at Chen Zhao with a resentful expression.
"Fine, pretend I didn't say anything." Chen Zhao waved his hands and said helplessly, "Do all rich people like you have a private plane?"
"With your current assets, you can definitely buy one. The cost of this Gulfstream G550 plus the interior costs won't exceed $50 million."
"Forget it." Chen Zhao shook his head. "Maintenance costs another two to three million every year."
"Oh, Mr. Chen, I told you before that my father's temper isn't very good. Do you remember?" Amira was giving Chen Zhao a heads-up. "If he offends you in any way when you see him, please forgive him."
"Of course," Chen Zhao said with a smile. "I've always been easy to talk to."
Amira didn't believe that Chen Zhao was easy to talk to at all.
"Oh, Miss Amira, I want to ask you a question about business."
"Mr. Chen, are you planning to start a business? Or invest in some financial products? "
"Sort of. Someone asked me to invest in a beer factory …" Chen Zhao told her what had happened.
"A small brand in a place like this probably can't even make a million a year."
Amira's analysis was very accurate. She could roughly analyze the situation and profit level from Chen Zhao's simple words.
However, she was the manager of the bank after all, so this kind of ability was not surprising.
"Profitability is secondary. I'm thinking about whether the brewery has the potential to increase in value. Also, is there any way I can set up a brewery without letting moths into it?"
"It's very simple. Use high benefits and high-pressure policies to manage your employees."
"What do you mean?"
"I don't need to explain the high benefits. The benefits you give are at least twice the pay and benefits of similar manufacturers. The high-pressure policy is not to set strict management rules. Anyone who makes a mistake, even the slightest mistake, will be fired immediately."
"What's the difference between this and normal management?" Chen Zhao was confused.
"A normal company's management system is flexible. For example, if someone takes a document home and forgets to bring it back, they will only get a warning from their superiors. However, high-pressure management means that even the slightest mistake will cause them to be fired."
"This will attract the attention of the union. If the union interferes, it'll be very troublesome."
"That's the problem. If the union interferes, they'll stop production. Stopping production won't affect you much, but it means unemployment for the employees, so they'll try to resume production. If there are similar problems in the future, the employees will also supervise each other. This high-pressure management doesn't have to last for too long. In three months, the employees will be able to form self-discipline."
Chen Zhao had to admit that he had racked his brains for an entire night.
To Amira, this wasn't a problem at all.
This problem was easily solved.
"But I won't be able to help much in terms of marketing," said Amira.
"No need. I'll put the beer on Mara Supermarket's shelves," Chen Zhao said.
"Your brewery hasn't even started and you're confident that you can put your product on Mara Supermarket's shelves?"
"Fali's mother is the owner of Mara Supermarket," Chen Zhao said.
"No wonder."
After flying for two hours, the plane finally arrived in Abilene.
Abilene was a small city in Kansas with a population of less than 120,000.
There had once been a president here, Eisenhower Will.
Its main income came from farming and animal husbandry. It had a certain industrial base.
Abilene's airport only had domestic flights, so there were only a few people in the airport.
After leaving the airport, Chen Zhao got into the car that Amira had arranged for him and went straight to the suburbs of Abilene.
According to the law, some polluting projects weren't allowed to be built in densely populated areas. They had to be at least 100 kilometers away.
Thus, the land that Amira's father had bought was very remote.
After leaving the city, there were no buildings along the way.
There were even very few cars on the road. A car might pass by every few minutes.
After driving for about half an hour, Chen Zhao saw the construction site.
It was a huge plain. The area within a radius of hundreds of kilometers was like this. Only the shadows of mountains could be seen in the distance.
The place seemed rather desolate. As long as he opened the car window, he could smell the soil.
The car stopped outside the construction site and was stopped.
Amira picked up the phone. "Dad, I'm outside the construction site."
"What? Why are you here? This isn't a place you should be. "
"Dad, I brought someone."
"Who?"
"I told you before. Someone who can help you solve your problem."
"Wait at the door. I'll be right there."
A while later, Depp came out with the person.
Depp first glanced at Chen Zhao, who was standing beside Amira, and then at Amira.
"Amira, is this the person you were talking about?"
"Yes, Dad," Amira answered with certainty. "He's the person who can help you solve your problem."
"How much did you give him?"
"I've already paid $10 million in advance. According to the agreement, you still have to pay him $20 million after this is over."
Depp's face darkened, and Avinco, who was standing beside Depp, was also shocked.
"Buddy, you really dare to ask for a high price." Avinco grinned at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao glanced at Avinco and Depp, not saying anything.
Amira had already warned him before. He didn't need to care about her father's words.
In any case, he didn't work here to fight with Depp.
