On the seventh day after arriving in the capital, Sanjesé took Nicks and changed to a cheap hotel farther away from the city center. They stayed on Flores Street where the one-night rent was only one-third of the original price. .
Although there is no sea view, it is very close to the park and the air is pretty good. It is worth mentioning that the air in Bu City is so-so now. Due to the development of some industries, the air is not very good and the sky is sometimes gray.
The University of Buddhism is located in the city center. The hotel where St. Jose stayed was ridiculously expensive for one night because of the convenience of taking the exam.
I chose a nearby one. There are no exams now. Of course I have to change places. The environment of the newly moved hotel is not bad. Except that there is no old TV, other conditions are that the price is much lower, and three meals a day are free. At no extra cost, it also comes with two Meda sodas per day.
The two of them spent another two days renting an office 10 kilometers away from the Financial Street in the capital. It was a bit far from where they lived, so they had to change to a hotel. The weather was a bit hot now, so it would be winter. You can walk every day to exercise.
The Financial Street in the city center is a very valuable place, with banks, securities, and insurance companies from all over Argentina gathered together. The high rents give San Jose a headache.
500 pesos per square meter per month directly persuades San Jose to quit. After all, we are not really rich now. We can spend a lot of money and save when we can. Moreover, renting a house is not cost-effective. If you have money, you must buy a few more properties. In the future, if the company goes bankrupt, it can still be used as a charterer to collect money.
I have to say that Paris, South America, is still very powerful, but in a derogatory sense.
The rents in the city center are scary. They can be compared with those on Wall Street. The rents are ridiculously high. However, since Financial Street is located in the city center, it is normal. We can only settle for the next best thing.
In the Palermo area, the monthly rent per square meter is only 100 pesos. San Jose chose a 200-square-meter office on the first floor. The monthly rent is 20,000 pesos, which is 600 US dollars per month. It is relatively expensive, but still Within the acceptance limits of Saint Jose.
I rented the office, got the lease contract, spent three days to complete the formalities, and spent three days bragging with the aunt in the city hall to get it done.
Fortunately, there is no additional cost and the efficiency is basically fast. I heard that some people failed to register a company within a month because they did not have a good relationship with the aunt.
Saint Jose planned to register a venture capital company, but it turned out that someone with the name Sequoia had already registered an agricultural fertilizer company in China.
Sequoia originally specialized in importing guano and producing chemical fertilizers, so it still had some reputation and history.
Because of the decline in exports from Chile, Sequoia Company can even be traced back to the beginning of the independence movement in the La Plata colony. Now it has transformed into a famous organic fertilizer manufacturer in Argentina, changing its products to chicken manure, which can be mass-produced. Organic Fertilizer.
In order not to be misunderstood and regarded as a Jinkela company, St. Hesse neatly changed the company's name to Redwood International, which is mainly responsible for stock and fund investment, futures, crude oil trading, etc. Of course, these are just additional performances.
It also placed advertisements in the city's talent market to recruit 10 stock salesmen and an investment manager, and the salary was not bad.
There are not that many high-end jobs in Argentina now. It took him a whole morning to recruit several recruiters who knew both English and Spanish. Saint Jose's goal was to make some extra money with the Americans.
We also recruited a person in charge, Sean Berkeley, a senior manager who graduated from the University of Business in Argentina with a bachelor's degree and a master's degree from the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. He has been working in the industry for five years.
When I first met Thain, Thain was still a stock manager who had been fired for more than a month and had not found a job. The entry of the United States into the Goryeo War caused the Argentine stock market to plummet. The dark clouds of world war filled the entire Pacific. In a short period of time, many The securities account was liquidated and Thain was also fired.
Most people do not have the perspective of God like Saint Jose, and Thain's former company was heavily invested in some trading shipping companies. It suffered heavy losses, stocks were sold off wildly, and the fragile Putrajaya Stock Exchange returned to before its establishment overnight.
It is easier to recruit stock salesmen. The basic salary offered by St. Jose is not low. The basic salary is US$100 a month, which is almost the first-class level in the industry. St. Jose has selected ten outstanding ones and let them join the team.
"Welcome everyone to join our Hongmu International Investment Company. You can familiarize yourself with the basic work first. These are the focus of our next work. Thain, come to my office later." Saint Hesse prepared some information reports for these people. .
"Yes, boss." Everyone returned to their workstations to start working. Although the company is relatively remote now, the salary is quite high and the work enthusiasm is very high.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Thain is a thirty-five-year-old pure Hispanic descendant who studied in the UK.
"Sain, what do you think of the United States?" St. Jose looked out the window and did not answer Thain's question.
"Boss, the United States is now the most powerful and rich country in the world."
"What about Wall Street?"
“Wall Street is a mecca for investment and finance, and we in Buenos Aires cannot compare.”
“Our current goal is to open a trading account at the New York Stock Exchange.”
“Although Argentina’s stock market has been open for more than ten years, it is still too lagging behind.”
"Yes boss, otherwise I wouldn't be unemployed..."
"I want you to open a securities account on Wall Street and keep buying one stock in the next two months - General Motors."
"Boss, I know this company, but although the stock price of this company is not high, there is no need to acquire it. This company has more than doubled in the past few years and has reached its peak. It is very dangerous, right? Look at other companies",
After the Great Depression and World War II in the 1940s, a huge amount of wealth in the United States was wiped out, and personal wealth was looted. Even if there is some growth, there are still very few ordinary people holding stocks.
"This is not something you have to consider. Just follow the capital allocation and purchase according to my instructions." Now the stock market is on the eve of its launch. As the world's largest company, it will detonate a skyrocketing market value when it releases its annual report.
The three major industries of automobiles, aviation, and chemicals in the United States are developing rapidly, and a number of large leading companies are about to emerge, relying on the Yankees' huge market and their super status after World War II.
These companies have amazing profitability, and their super profitability will drive the U.S. stock market to rise sharply. St. Jose did not tell Thain about these things. This is also a golden finger for St. Jose.
The U.S. stock market started a bull market in 1950, but now it has not completely started due to the risk of war, and General Motors will be the first super bull stock.
The bull market lasted for sixteen years until 1966. Although investing in stocks seemed a bit like investing in the enemy, in order to raise more funds, you had to invest more.
Now that there is no restriction on the conversion of Argentine pesos to U.S. dollars, Sanjesé has converted all the funds received by Prali Company into US dollars, and used Prali Company's production lines as collateral to obtain a loan of 2 million U.S. dollars, plus loan funds, to raise 2.5 million US dollars.
The Redwood Investment Company is operated remotely, and Thain is the operator on the surface.
"Sean, you may be going to New York for a business trip. Do you have a U.S. passport?" The current U.S. stock market is still quite primitive, and it will not be considered a modern stock market until 1954.
"Boss, yes." Thain had been shocked by some of Saint Jose's "high-end remarks." This mysterious boss seemed to be a financial and business genius with amazing insights into the international situation and stock and futures trading.
And the salary offered is also very satisfactory.
New York is now the paradise of the world's financial industry. Thain did not hesitate to choose to go on a business trip and all expenses were reimbursed.
I come back to Argentina once a month to report on work, San Jose remotely monitors stock account movements, opens a Citibank account in the capital branch, and makes international remittances.
So someone must go to New York, USA, to do it on the spot, just before the bull market starts.
Of course, the funds were transferred to the securities account of Citibank in the United States, and Saint Jose opened an account with Morgan Securities Company.
Thain only has the trading rights to the account, not the right to use it. After all, 2.5 million US dollars is not a small amount.
He did what he said, and Saint-Jesse also directly called on a few people who were better at English to go to the United States with Thain to "make trouble."
Otherwise, countries like the Cayman Islands have not yet been established, and St. Jose would not want to pay taxes to the Americans.
Thain took a plane to the United States to register New York Redwood International Investment Company, paid a deposit, and began to absorb the stocks of two companies, namely Boeing and General Motors, at low prices on the trading day.
The 2.5 million U.S. dollars will be spent within a month. The plastic bottle factory will be completed in February, and a 2 million U.S. dollar loan will be put into the securities account. The total amount of funds is 4.5 million U.S. dollars, which is an amount of funds that Thain's team has never operated.
Of course, St. Hesse would not simply trust Thain. Several people under him were responsible for keeping an eye on Thain's investment trends and reporting information at any time.
After San Jose has arranged the affairs of the securities company, it is also time to plan to expand the international export scale of Prairie. The domestic market can only be doubled at most, but the Brazilian market, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Peru, these are ah Two or three times that of Argentina.
With Nick Jr., he also set up an international sales department in Buenos Aires, and he was temporarily responsible for internationalization measures.
Cordoba is still far behind the capital in terms of internationalization. The number of talents alone cannot be compared, and the quality of talents cannot be said.
San Jose still rented an office building with an area of 500 square meters in a more remote suburb.
The Argentinian Prali Food Sales Company was registered, specializing in international export business. The first stop is Uruguay, which uses Spanish. The second stop will be the Brazilian market with a population of 80 million.
San Jose has recruited a sales team of 20 people to enrich the sales headquarters. I have to lament that there are so many talents in the capital. At the beginning, the Prali factory had to select sales salesmen from among the workers.
St. Jose still held a mobilization meeting and sent people to Uruguay. In order to support sales, St. Jose directly rented an industrial park and installed a new production line specifically for the production of soda.
Of course, because a lot of funds were transferred, we used reserve funds and ordered 10 more advanced production lines with American partners through installment payment.
San Jose also officially connected with the Argentine branch of General Electric Company of the United States. They were directly connected. The export of civilian equipment did not require many restrictions, and Argentina is also the younger brother of the United States, so this time it was settled smoothly. Production equipment, realizing direct sales from manufacturers.
It turned out that the trap was so serious that traders smuggled it out and made money for the second-rate dealers. I have to say that General Electric is powerful. Now General Electric is still in the stage of rapid development. The 1960s was the time when it took off crazily.
General Electric’s current annual sales are still far behind General Motors. General Electric’s annual sales are more than 2 billion U.S. dollars, which is almost more than half of Argentina’s GDP. It is truly rich as a country. However, General Motors’ annual sales last year The profit is more than 800 million US dollars.
Sanjesé had a great conversation with the branch manager of General Electric. One month after GE officially entered the Argentinian market, Sanjesé had sales of more than one million US dollars. Although it was not a lot, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. Argentina was the first to cooperate with General Electric, and it received somewhat preferential treatment and preferential policies.
General Electric only entered the Argentinian market this year and has largely helped Prali solve the problem of production equipment.
Argentina is not good at food mechanical processing, but General Electric is very mature in mechanical equipment processing and can produce a lot of production line equipment. Cooperation with General Electric will be very effective in widening the gap with other domestic competitors and catching up. Coca-Cola pace.
However, since General Electric only produces in the United States and transports it by ship, it will take another month to actually set up the new soda plant in St. Jose.
It is worth mentioning that before the final contract was signed, two German companies, Siemens and Bosch, were hired, allowing General Electric to lower the purchase price. In the end, St. Hesse purchased a total of 11 modern production lines.
The new factory is located in the Paradi district on the outskirts of Buenos Aires. The transportation is very convenient and the rent is very low. It is very suitable for setting up a factory. The original local beef slaughtering and processing factory closed down, and San Jose could just take over and establish it. Soda factory, competing with other companies.
Meta Soda already had a certain reputation, but the establishment of a new factory would help expand international exports. Saint-Jesse began to draw the factory design drawings according to his inner plan.
The world's most advanced fully automatic mixing tanks and canning production lines are arranged one by one. However, glass bottles are still not available locally and can only be transported from Cordoba. It is inconvenient, but glass bottles are a necessity. , if a processing plant is established in the capital, a local glass bottle factory must be built.
The glass bottle factory in Cordoba must be completely merged and acquired. Reopening the glass bottle factory is too troublesome. Unlike the soda water factory, San Jose has experience.
Sean Glass Factory, maybe it’s time to acquire him. The Sean Glass Factory must be completely modernized, otherwise it will not be able to meet the needs of Prali Factory.
In addition to being busy investing in companies and opening new factories, the most important thing is to wait for notification. The admission notice from the University of Cordoba has been sent out, and there is no news about the University of Buenos Aires that I miss.
