From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 132 Commission
The next day, around ten in the morning.

In Central, at the entrance of a law firm, Jiang Yao took a look at the huge sign hanging at the door and strode in without any hesitation.

"Hello, sir, how can I help you?"

As soon as he reached the door, a pretty girl in professional attire came over and greeted Jiang Yao.

"I have some business matters and I want to entrust a lawyer to help me handle it!" Jiang Yao responded while smiling at the girl.

Lawyers in Hong Kong do not just help people with lawsuits, they can also help handle many other matters. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to have money.

It is not very convenient to deposit the three million into the bank. Jiang Yao has been stuffing it under the bed, which is even less of a solution.

"Business matters? Please follow me!"

Leading Jiang Yao to a small reception room in the office, the pretty girl smiled and said, "Please wait a moment. I will report the matter for you. A formal lawyer will come to see you soon."

After pouring Jiang Yao a glass of water, the pretty girl walked out.

After six or seven minutes, and after a few gentle knocks on the door, a female lawyer in her thirties who looked relatively young walked in.

In the legal profession, she is indeed very young for her age.

He is not a well-known figure, and Jiang Yao does not look like a rich man. If someone like him comes to the law firm for business consultation, the person who will receive him will definitely not be a well-known lawyer.

"I'm Cheng Fei'er, an assistant lawyer at Luo Lilin Law Firm."

"Sir, what's your name?" With a professional smile on her face, the female lawyer stretched out her hand and greeted Jiang Yao.

"Hello, Lawyer Cheng, my last name is Jiang, and my name is Jiang Yaozu!" Standing up, Jiang Yao shook hands with Cheng Feier.

Then, the two of them sat down facing each other.

Jiang Yao went straight to the point and said, "I want to register a few offshore companies for cross-holding. Lawyer Cheng should be able to help me."

"Also, I want to acquire a record company, but it can't be too big, and the price can't be too high."

"In this regard, I need to make use of your connections, Attorney Cheng, to see if you can find a suitable one. Please recommend one to me."

"Of course, if this thing can be accomplished, I will definitely have to trouble you, Lawyer Cheng, for matters such as contract signing and notarization."

……

In Hong Kong, the two most famous and profitable industries are finance and real estate.

Jiang Yao couldn't do something as high-end as finance. After all, in his previous life, he was just a delivery man.

With this little money of his, if he wanted to get involved in the financial industry, it would be like throwing money away.

As for real estate? That's the territory of the big sharks.

With three million yuan, Jiang Yao wanted to buy a better house, but he could only pay in installments and could not afford the full amount. It was impossible for him to do that.

He still remembered many classic songs in his mind. With such a big advantage, he wanted to make money, so starting a record company was naturally the most suitable and wise choice for him.

"Mr. Jiang, I can indeed handle the matter you want to handle."

"But if I may be frank, whether it is registering an offshore company or acquiring a record company, it would be more convenient for you to directly entrust an accounting firm."

"If you ask a law firm to help you with these matters, the fees will definitely be much more expensive."

……

Cheng Feier listened quietly to Jiang Yao finish his words. With a puzzled look on her face, she asked with a smile.

Of course, she didn't mean anything else by saying this, nor did she think about pushing the resale business outwardly. She asked this question purely out of curiosity.

Although the Luo Lilin Law Firm where she worked was well-known in Hong Kong, she was only an assistant lawyer and could only be considered a low-level employee in the firm.

In terms of qualifications, although an assistant lawyer can handle some simple cases independently, there must be clients willing to entrust the matters to her.

The job of receiving Jiang Yao fell on her shoulders because the senior lawyers or barristers in the firm simply looked down on a misfit like Jiang Yao.

"As long as the matter can be handled for me, I can accept a slightly higher lawyer fee."

"Of course, the main reason why I came to your firm is definitely because I prefer dealing with beautiful women like you, Lawyer Cheng."

Jiang Yao laughed and joked.

As for the real reason, he didn't tell it because it would make him feel embarrassed.

After all, he had always been at the bottom of society and had never dealt with lawyers or accountants, so how could he know the various ways involved?

He came to Luo Lilin Law Firm simply because he subconsciously felt that as a lawyer, he should be omnipotent and able to handle anything.

"Mr. Jiang, don't worry. Since I have accepted your commission, I will definitely help you get the job done."

"Also, can I ask, what are your criteria for acquiring record companies?"

Everyone likes to hear compliments, especially for women. There is no one who doesn't like to hear others praise her beauty.

Cheng Feier seemed to be in a good mood at the moment. With a smile on her face, she made a promise and then asked back.

"The most valuable thing about a record company is the singers under their name and the copyright library accumulated over the years. I don't have too high expectations in this regard."

"The funds I can use are not much, probably between two million and three million."

"I'll have to trouble you, Attorney Cheng, to find a target that meets my standards."

Jiang Yao frowned and thought for a while, then he responded with a smile.

After hearing what he said, Lawyer Cheng nodded.

After chatting for a while and signing a commission agreement, Jiang Yao's purpose of coming here was basically achieved.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

After shaking hands and saying hello to Cheng Feier, Jiang Yao walked out of the reception room and headed outside the law firm.

Jiang Yao spent the next few days in peace.

The female ghost Qingqing has never been seen again. After returning to that unknown place, she should still be recovering and has not been able to return to the outside world.

After transforming into a Yin Sha body, Jiang Yao could actually touch strange creatures like Qing Qing, but when the two of them slept, he was mainly out of curiosity.

After all, in this state of Yin Sha body, even his sense of pain has basically disappeared. When he and Qing Qing are in perfect harmony, he is so cold all over that it seems as if he is immersed in an equally cold ball of Yin Qi.

How much pleasure can Jiang Yao get under such circumstances?

When the curiosity gradually faded, his purpose of being with the ghost girl Qingqing was very pure, just to practice and strengthen himself. Relatively speaking, Jiang Yao must have enjoyed it more when he was with Fang Jieting.

It's a pity that the woman was a workaholic. After successfully capturing Ding Dachang, she was very busy and had too many things to deal with.

For several days, Jiang Yao didn't see her.

I called her several times, but she hung up the phone in a hurry after just a few words.

Jiang Yao even had some doubts, was this woman planning to burn her bridges? Did she still remember her promise to him?
In the blink of an eye, three or four days have passed since I came back from Luo Lilin Law Firm.

The legal profession has a wide network of contacts. Cheng Feier's work ability is quite good. Not long ago, Jiang Yao received a call from her, asking him to meet at a place called Dream Island Cafe.

It was still an ordinary casual outfit, but there was no need for any gorgeous clothes to set it off. Jiang Yao in the mirror was still so handsome and charming.

Of course, this is what he thinks. If others have objections, it can only be said that the two sides have different values. Those people are short-sighted and cannot appreciate his inner beauty.

Jiang Yao found a seat in the Mengdao Cafe and ordered a cup of coffee. After only sitting there for more than ten minutes, Cheng Feier's tall figure appeared at the door of the cafe.

"Here..." Standing up, Jiang Yao waved and greeted Cheng Feier.

Later, when he saw Cheng Feier approaching, he very gentlemanly pulled the chair opposite him a little further out and motioned for her to sit down first.

"Mr. Jiang, I have already registered the offshore company you entrusted me to register. The registration place is the Cayman Islands."

Cheng Feier smiled and nodded. After she sat down, she immediately took out a few documents from her briefcase and handed them to Jiang Yao.

"Yes!" Jiang Yao nodded, took a few documents and began to look through them.

“Amazon Investments, Sequoia Capital, Citigroup Holdings…the company names you provided sound a bit weird.”

"When registering in the Cayman Islands, some names could not be registered due to duplication, so we finally chose these three as the name of your company."

"With these offshore companies as cover, if you want to invest in Hong Kong, you can try your best to avoid exposing your identity!"

Looking at Jiang Yao who was looking through the documents intently across from her, Cheng Feier picked up the cup of coffee that the waiter had just brought over, took a sip, and explained.

Most people register offshore companies for the purpose of tax evasion. Jiang Yao does not have any property in Hong Kong, so this is definitely not his purpose.

In addition, he also entrusted her to acquire the record company. Cheng Feier was not a fool, so she could naturally guess the general purpose of Jiang Yao's doing so.

Lawyers in Hong Kong are very professional and will not interfere or ask too many questions whether their employers' actions are illegal or not. They will only try their best to complete all the commissions entrusted by their employers.

Lawyers who choose to sell out their employer's secrets because of their inner sense of justice will only be despised by the entire industry and will never be able to survive in the Hong Kong legal community.

"I just randomly thought of a few company names. My intuition tells me that such company names should have great development potential."

Jiang Yao grinned and explained.

For companies registered in the Cayman Islands, all the documents are in English.

He knew ABCD, but he didn't know many words that could be put together.

He seemed to be looking through the documents attentively, but in fact, he could not understand the words at all and was just pretending.

“I entrusted a friend to register the offshore company.”

"These past few days, I've been looking up things about the record company."

"In the early years, the record industry in Hong Kong was very prosperous, but in recent years, the entire industry has been a little bit sluggish."

"Except for the top few major record companies that are still thriving, there are actually quite a few small record companies that are unable to continue operating and want to sell themselves."

"I have some information here that should barely meet your requirements, Mr. Jiang. Please take a look!"

After seeing Jiang Yao across from her putting away the registration documents, Cheng Feier smiled, took out a few more documents from her briefcase and handed them over.

"Well! Let me take a look first!" Jiang Yao nodded, took the information and started looking through it again.

Of course, this time he was watching seriously, not just pretending.

The first document contains information about a company called Big Fish Records.

This company was founded in 1990 and has a history of ten years.

The founder of the company was a popular singer back then, and the company was very popular in the first few years after its establishment.

However, the new generation replaces the old generation.

Dayu Records has never produced any outstanding new talents. The singer who was the founder did not release any new songs that were widely sung. After he gradually became out of fashion, the company naturally could no longer operate.

Perhaps because the company had once been glorious, Cheng Feier marked the estimated purchase price on the document as around five million Hong Kong dollars.

Jiang Yao didn't have enough money, so after seeing the price, he picked up the document and put it aside.

There were four documents that Cheng Feier handed to him, and the document recording Dayu Records was just one of them.

Picking up the other documents, he frowned slightly and began to look through them carefully again.

"Lawyer Cheng, what is the situation with the Flying Star Records on the last document?"

"I seem to remember that several records released by this record company have reached platinum standards."

"For a company that was once fairly famous, the estimated purchase price is only 2.8 million?"

When Jiang Yao saw the last document, his eyes lit up.

But then, his expression became a little confused, and looking at Cheng Feier opposite him, he asked in confusion.

"I knew you would ask this question, Mr. Jiang."

"This Feixing Records was indeed quite famous in the past, but in 1998, a huge conflict arose among the three founders of this company."

"The two founders who left the company were originally responsible for composing music and lyrics. Their departure almost completely brought the operation of Feixing Records to a standstill. More than 90% of the singers followed them."

"As for the song copyrights that the company had previously accumulated, most of them were also taken away by the two of them."

"The company has sold almost everything that can be sold. Apart from a recording studio and the name of Flying Star Records, there is not much else of value left."

"If other clients had asked me to collect information about record companies, I would definitely not have included Feixing Records. But it's different for you, Mr. Jiang. Didn't you specifically tell me before that you didn't have high requirements for your singers and copyright libraries?"

"Among the several pieces of information I have collected, I think this Flying Star Record is the one that best meets your requirements!"

……

Looking at Jiang Yao in front of her, Cheng Feier smiled and explained.
