Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 147 The Importance of Channels

The next morning, Lin Baicheng came downstairs after washing up and found that Isabella had already arrived and was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

"Morning, Isabella!"

"Good morning, BOSS!"

"Have you had breakfast? If not, let's go together."

"Thank you BOSS, but I've already eaten."

Isabella naturally came over after breakfast.

"Good morning, sir!"

Dorchi walked over.

"Good morning!"

Lin Baicheng nodded and walked to the restaurant: "Where are Yaoxian and the others?"

"Mr. Chen and the others have already eaten and are exercising outside." Dorchi followed closely.

"Just eat it."

Arriving at the restaurant, Lin Baicheng found that today's breakfast was porridge, which he was very satisfied with.

"Isabella, sit down too."

Lin Baicheng sat down to eat and motioned for Isabella to sit down as well. While eating, he said, "How are you doing with the bodyguard I'm looking for?" Originally, Lin Baicheng arranged for Eric to find a qualified bodyguard for him, a white man.

The main reason is that the black man can barely accept it, mainly to protect his safety in the United States. Chinese bodyguards are not suitable for some occasions. This task later fell to Isabella.

Isabella sat down after hearing this and replied: "Because BOSS, the bodyguard you require must not only be able to fight, but also be familiar with firearms and know how to protect people. At the same time, you also require the bodyguard to be someone who is responsible for the family and has a home.

Therefore, it is not that easy to find. There are currently several people listed as candidates, and I have invited several professional investigation companies to investigate them to see if their performance in real life matches what is stated in the information."

"Actually, we found a suitable target earlier, but the target didn't want to be a bodyguard, so we had to find another one. It's not easy for us to find a target that meets the requirements. Once we find one, we have to make the target willing to be a bodyguard."

"Keep looking, the conditions must not be relaxed."

Lin Baicheng said out loud that he was looking for bodyguards to protect himself, and he did not want to find a bodyguard with problems. A bodyguard who has a family and is responsible for his family is relatively less likely to have problems.

"Yes, BOSS!"

Isabella nodded to express her understanding.

Lin Baicheng stopped asking, but Isabella took the initiative to report: "BOSS, regarding the tax issue, I contacted the accounting company yesterday, and they said that if you don't want to have any problems, it is best to pay taxes that meet the business level."

3% of income, this is when the company is profitable. If the company is not profitable, the tax paid will not be as much as 3%."

"Since there won't be any problem with 3% of business income, then just file these taxes when the time comes."

Lin Baicheng nodded. It was about 3 million US dollars, which was 2 million US dollars more than the original 1 million US dollars. But who said he was a foreigner? If he wanted to make money safely in the United States, there must be no tax problems.

Isabella said: "BOSS, without any tax avoidance, the tax we have to report is 8.5 million U.S. dollars. The villa was bought for 5.3 million U.S. dollars, so there is still 200,000 U.S. dollars to spend. The consumption of this money cannot be counted.

In terms of daily consumption, it should be used for large purchases."

"Then take it and buy me a car."

Lin Baicheng thought for a while and said, if you don't spend it, it will be counted as tax and paid to the US Internal Revenue Service. In this case, it is better to spend it yourself.

"BOSS, do you have any requirements regarding the car's brand, performance, etc.?" Isabella asked.

Lin Baicheng shook his head: "There are no requirements, you can choose as you see fit, as long as you don't choose the women's model for me."

"Yes, BOSS!"

Isabella nodded. She would not buy a women's car for Lin Baicheng without Lin Baicheng's request, unless Lin Baicheng specifically requested it.

After the meal, Lin Baicheng took Isabella and the bodyguard to the branch of Galaxy Games.

When he came to the branch, while walking inside, Lin Baicheng asked: "Is New Century Software Company far from here?"

Isabella replied: "Not far, in an office building dozens of meters away."

"Okay, I'll go over there and have a look later."

The arrival of Lin Baicheng and his party attracted the attention of all employees. Who knew that Lin Baicheng came with bodyguards, several burly men, and they were all Asians.

"BOSS!"

Several employees who entered the company earlier recognized Lin Baicheng and hurried over to say hello.

Lin Baicheng found that most of the faces in the company were new, and there were only a few that he had met, including a few times at the Los Angeles trade fair.

"BOSS!"

Eric quickly walked out of the office.

The group went to Eric's office.

"Eric, tell me how many stores the company has now."

"There are a total of forty stores, and they have all been renovated."

Eric knew these things well, so he immediately answered, and even took the initiative to say: "Except for the five stores in New York, the other stores are all in California. Among them, there are ten stores in Los Angeles, and San Diego, San Jose, and Long Beach have three large populations.

There are three stores in each city. San Francisco has five stores because its economy is relatively better than those three cities. The remaining stores are located in other cities and counties in California, including cities and counties with larger populations.

A storefront.”

Stores in New York and Los Angeles will definitely be more expensive, so it will take US$5 million to open so many stores.

"I brought a sum of money this time. I will transfer 10 million US dollars to the company's account later, and you can use it to continue to expand the scale of the channel."

The establishment of channels is very expensive, especially for someone like Lin Baicheng who wants to buy a store. If the store is rented, there is no need to spend so much money upfront. But the problem is that rented stores are prone to problems, and time

After a long time, renting is definitely not as cost-effective as buying, there is no doubt about it.

As for not building channels and using others', Lin Baicheng has never thought that all large companies must have their own channels, otherwise they will hand over their lifeblood to others, which poses a huge security risk.

"Yes, BOSS!"

Eric is in high spirits. The more assets he is responsible for, the more his value will be reflected.

"By the way, I remember Isabella mentioned that these stores are currently in business, mainly selling toys. How is the performance?"

Lin Baicheng suddenly remembered that because there were no products of his own to sell, after the store was purchased and renovated, it was closed first and no business was opened, leaving the store empty.

More than a month ago, Isabella reported to him that after discussing with Eric, she felt that it would be a waste to keep the store empty. She could sell products from other toy companies first and make some money. Lin Baicheng agreed at that time

, I didn’t ask any more questions after that, and I didn’t know what the situation was.
