Chapter 287 Encounter



When wealth reaches a certain stage and customers become vested interests, the relationship between them and the bank begins to become tied together. At this time, when consulting services are sought, the available options are surprisingly rich, ranging from hiding assets to money laundering, covering almost every aspect.

Swiss law stipulates that banks are only forced to disclose their accounts if a crime has been proven. However, most of the time, if the accounts are not disclosed, the stolen money cannot be found and the crime cannot be convicted, creating a vicious cycle.

Therefore, when people talk about cross-border assets, Swiss banks are the first choice. Especially for those whose assets are not visible to the public, almost all of them have accounts in Switzerland.

After talking with Jack Perez, Han Chudong felt relieved. He finally solved another problem. When the time is right, he will probably continue to transfer assets abroad while financial supervision is not in place, but for now, it is enough to satisfy him.

The IRS has no jurisdiction over Puerto Rico, but it will send people to assist local people in handling taxes. There is always a risk of being discovered if so many shares are lost for no reason.

You don’t have to worry anymore with the help of Swiss Bank Group.

With 15 percent of the shares being transferred to multiple tax havens, based on the profits in the first three quarters of this year, a huge amount of tax savings alone can be achieved.

Of course, since foreign investment is greater than income, and loan interest needs to be repaid and employee benefits and bonuses need to be distributed, the total profit in the financial statements at the beginning of next year will most likely be a negative number, and wealth growth will be reflected in the value of the company itself.

This means that his tax payment is likely to be lower than that of a middle-class white-collar worker who works hard for a whole year, and it is completely legal...

I left the conference venue first, and after getting a haircut, I took the time to have a quick meal.

During this period, I solved some problems in my own company. As the end of the year approaches, there are a lot of troubles that need to be solved every day.

Halloween is coming soon, and Mango Toy Company is rushing to prepare stocks. A large truck transporting toy gift boxes encountered an accident in Mississippi.

The driver was rescued but left disabled. Han Chudong ordered his men to resolve the issue properly and would give him compensation.

Since he was an employee of the transportation company, strictly speaking he had little to do with Han Chudong, the compensation was only about 20,000 US dollars. In fact, even if he did not give this money, he could not find any fault. It was just a simple entrusted transportation relationship. The driver could only cause trouble to the transportation company and the insurance company.

There is also Baofeng Electric, which has developed a promotion plan for its old-for-new campaign, but it does not seek to make money, but only to protect its capital.

By impacting the market with low-priced products and increasing market share, the ones who will suffer in the end are the weak small and medium-sized retail stores, while the ones who will benefit are the consumers and Baofeng Electric Company. Han Chudong understands the power of the old-for-new promotion method better than anyone else, and is currently busy preparing stocks and waiting for Thanksgiving to arrive.

Each department doesn't have much to do, but it's quite tricky to bring them together.

I went through all of them before the party, then left the hotel suite at a leisurely pace and headed back to the hotel as written on the schedule.

We met a person on the way, standing on the side of the road and waving to the convoy.

Arthur's assistant will accompany him tonight. He is wearing a brand new Gucci men's suit. He happened to see this man on the roadside and hurriedly asked the driver to stop the car. Then he turned around and told Han Chudong, "Boss, this is your friend."

Isn’t it Zhao Dajun?

Han Chudong opened the car window and smiled: "Why are you in San Francisco? Is this your girlfriend?"

"Don't talk nonsense. We are just colleagues for now. I happened to see your bodyguard in the car in front, so I guessed you were in this nice car." Zhao Dajun was very happy to bump into Han Chudong unexpectedly on the streets of San Francisco. He continued, "I come here several times a month for the toy business. You know that. What are you doing here? Why don't you come to have dinner with us?"

"For a meeting. I saw President Ford this morning. Perhaps half of all the big shots on earth are in San Francisco today." Han Chudong looked at the tall Asian girl with a hint of curiosity. He keenly sensed the deeper meaning behind the words "just colleagues for now", and it was clear that he had some thoughts.

If Da Jun was alone, he might offer to take the initiative to show his childhood friend the world. However, Han Chudong knew nothing about the girl next to Zhao Da Jun, and subconsciously thought that it would be better not to cause trouble for himself. Tonight's occasion was different from the usual parties and was more formal.

"Hey, you're really good at flattering yourself. But there's nothing wrong with saying that Xiaodong, you're a big shot now."

"This is a very boring meeting. If you have time tonight, I will treat you to a midnight snack..."

After a brief conversation, Han Chudong told Zhao Dajun where his hotel was and they agreed to meet at about 9:30 in the evening.

Da Jun didn't think it was a big deal, but the Asian girl who was shopping with him watched the convoy go away, her face full of surprise, and asked, "Han Chudong, right? The big boss who founded our toy company?"

Since he can call out Han Chudong's Chinese name, he must be of Chinese descent.

She just started working last week and, like Kiko Mochizuki, she also studied accounting in college.

He was not familiar with Zhao Dajun, so he was so surprised to see Han Chudong greeting him so familiarly.

"Well, he used to be my neighbor, living in Chinatown in Los Angeles, and we are still friends now. We are both very busy on weekdays and don't have much time to get together. You have heard what kind of people he is in contact with now. We occasionally go out for dinner with another childhood friend."

The tone was not sour, just a little bit of emotion.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Zhao Dajun didn't feel that his relationship with Han Chudong had deteriorated now, but they were indeed not in close contact as they were in school. Back then, they were inseparable from each other all day long.

I know in my heart that this is the price I have to pay for growing up.

Even if Han Chudong hadn't become rich, the number of times they would meet would have decreased as they each worked and started their own families. However, they were not yet accustomed to this way of getting along between adults, so they felt a little lost.

Thinking of the dinner date in the evening, he immediately said cheerfully: "Someone is treating us to a midnight snack. You are a local in San Francisco, so you should know where to find some good barbecue, right?"

"I know, but that kind of small barbecue restaurant, he..."

"As long as it tastes good, I've been to barbecue stalls with him a lot recently. Who told you that you have to eat caviar and high-quality foie gras every meal when you become rich? He doesn't care about these things. He likes to eat barbecue and drink beer just like me."

————————

A classy party as always.

The topics are either trade, exchange rates, tariffs, technology transfer, etc., as well as various meaningless content related to eating, drinking and having fun.

It was pretty much the same as Han Chudong had imagined, making him sleepy. Occasionally, some guys would show up and try to earn taxes from him and increase employment rates. The conditions they offered were even worse than those in Puerto Rico. Only a fool would choose to move out of the tax haven.

Attract some private equity funds and send out more business cards.

It was almost nine o'clock, and seeing many people leaving one after another, Han Chudong decisively withdrew...
