(252 votes…I am about to kill myself, can I trade some forgiveness with morality??)
…
Departing from Milan, passing by means of the snow-capped Alps, the terrain is slowly descending. The pace of the high-speed rail shouldn’t be too quick. The pace of the so-called 300 hours is usually blown. In keeping with the synchronization pace of the show, the best pace is just 200. Within the non-linear space, it drops to 150.
If they aren’t speed-seeking passengers, the pleasing surroundings alongside the way in which will make them take pleasure in. From the part after leaving the Alps, the majestic and solemn snow-capped mountains have changed into picturesque grasslands, clear lakes, yellow and inexperienced farmland, and exquisite cottages constructed on the mountainside.
The prepare handed by on the hillside, and the slopes on either side had been lush grass and blooming unknown flowers. To be trustworthy, An Feng had solely seen this scene on the pc desktop. No marvel everybody regards Switzerland because the nation of gardens. With the magnificent surroundings alongside the way in which, it’s fully worthy of this fame.
Joanna appeared out the window and stated longingly: “It is so lovely! The sky is blue, and the water can be blue. I actually need to dwell in a small picket home on the mountainside for a number of days, and once I get up, I can see the inexperienced grassland.”
An Feng nodded: “Just a few days is sufficient, I’ll reminisce often, and will probably be annoying after a very long time.”
“Let’s come and dwell right here subsequent time?” Joanna appeared again at him, the touching longing in her eyes made him irresistible, An Feng stated with a smile: “So long as you may have time, we are going to make a particular journey to dwell right here for some time, it is like an image scroll The gorgeous surroundings is certainly value protecting within the reminiscence of life.”
“You possibly can nonetheless ski!” she stated.
Admire the surroundings and are available to Zurich, the biggest metropolis in Switzerland. Referred to as the richest metropolis in Europe, the monetary heart and industrial heart, there are greater than 100 banks from all around the world, and the funds mobilized day by day have reached an inestimable astronomical determine, so it additionally has the saying of European Wall Avenue.
Many individuals name it “paradise” as a result of Switzerland, as a everlasting impartial nation, has had no wars for greater than 2 hundred years. Because the richest nation per capita, nobody can match its welfare. It as soon as proposed that it could possibly obtain 2,000 euros a month with out working Welfare, the latter invoice was not handed, nevertheless it additionally reveals the wealth of Switzerland.
After getting off on the station, the resort has already despatched somebody to attend. On this regard, the Swiss, just like the strict Germans, would moderately be early than late. Maybe it is this disciplined, even inflexible angle that makes the world’s richest folks belief Swiss bankers.
In fact, the “Nice Germans” like their ** predecessors, prefer to bully the Jews.
AmEx’s journey service helped An Feng e-book a service at a neighborhood five-star resort, and the resort despatched a full-time driver and a Rolls-Royce to select him up. The motive force in a black swimsuit and white gloves invited them to sit down within the solemn black luxurious automobile, began the automobile steadily and left.
It is a resort hidden in a non-public park, with a superb location, a view of the Alps and Lake Zurich, and only one road away from the richest avenue, Bahnhofstrasse. The road has the world’s prime trend designers, in addition to sneakers, furs, jewelry, porcelain and jewelry, nearly each luxurious you’ll be able to consider.
Staying in the most effective resort, dwelling in the most effective room, having fun with the highest service, and having fun with essentially the most lovely surroundings are the requirements of Anfeng’s journey this time. Though some outbursts are unavoidable in habits, however with essentially the most noble woman accompanying the employees, this sense will probably be diluted after slight modifications in particulars.
After a brief break, Joanna dragged her to buy groceries. Bahnhofstrasse is simply throughout the road, and you’ll see the costumes and jewellery within the store home windows together with your eyes, and girls will inevitably be tempted. And once they journey with little or no baggage, they often use native retailers as wardrobes. The important thing to open the wardrobe, in fact, is cash.
Contemplating environmental safety points, motor automobiles will not be allowed to enter Bahnhofstrasse, the one ones are trams, trams or the present new pure electrical automobiles. BMW’s i sequence additionally noticed a number of automobiles. It may be seen that pure electrical energy is the mainstream, and GP’s tremendous battery will promote the event of all these.
Joanna stated as she walked: “Let’s search for formal garments first. This fashion, I keep in mind essentially the most males’s garments right here.”
She is conversant in the native space, and it’s certainly not the primary time she has come right here. An Feng was dragged by her to comb each store on the road. It’s stated that some folks would moderately fly midway all over the world to spend a day right here. An Feng understands the rationale, there are too many luxuries to rely, and the eyes are dazzled.
Along with buying formal clothes and jewellery, An Feng didn’t neglect to take Joanna to essentially the most well-known merchandise in Switzerland—watches. Known as the service heart of Amex, and helped to make an appointment for Patek Philippe’s non-public service. After strolling in, there was a particular receptionist, and it was worthwhile to customise two personalised watches, each of which had been for ladies, with a complete value of about 800,000 US {dollars} , belongs to the very prime degree of customization, these watches with thousands and thousands of {dollars} normally solely seem at auctions, the worth of non-public customization might not be excessive, nevertheless it have to be in keeping with one’s needs.
Nonetheless, the rigidity of the Swiss has additionally come. With An Feng tactfully saying that the worth will be raised appropriately, they firmly imagine that the manufacturing time must be at the very least one yr. An Feng had nothing to do with them. If he hadn’t been involved about being a gentleman, he would have paid ten occasions the worth. If he did not imagine it, he would dare to shake his head.
However he did not try this ultimately. First, he got here out to have enjoyable, and there was no must create bother with others; Though he has some huge cash, he has not developed to the purpose the place he may give it casually, and rationality nonetheless dominates. After leaving, Joanna stated appreciatively: “You had been actually personable simply now, a mannequin of calm and calm, which can change their impression of the Chinese language folks of their hearts.”
An Feng smiled bitterly: “Is the picture of the Chinese language in international nations so dangerous?”
…
The following morning, the Rolls Royce of the resort despatched him to the headquarters of Credit score Suisse Group.
The Swiss financial institution talked about within the film is definitely a obscure idea. It could possibly seek advice from UBS, the biggest Swiss financial institution, or another small banks in Switzerland. In fact, Swiss bankers all abide by the obligation of protecting strict confidentiality for his or her shoppers, however as a big group or wealthy man, they need to select the highest ones.
UBS, the Union Financial institution of Switzerland, is the biggest monetary holding group in Europe, and Credit score Suisse, chosen by An Feng, can solely be ranked second behind UBS. No means, the appropriate to decide on shouldn’t be in his palms. When GP Worldwide opened an account, the offshore account used was Credit score Suisse.
On the way in which there by automobile, An Feng stated: “There’s a story a couple of wealthy man who walked into UBS with 5 million {dollars}, appeared round mysteriously, and requested to open a non-public account, however the financial institution employees advised him with a smile:’ I am sorry sir, it isn’t your fault that you simply’re poor.’ So it was rejected.”
Joanna laughed: “Don’t need 5 million?”
An Feng shook his head: “In fact that is simply an exaggerated joke. To start with, it’s unimaginable for a wealthy man to stroll into the financial institution with 5 million US {dollars} – it’s too heavy; after which Switzerland shouldn’t be a rustic dominated by US {dollars}, so it is vitally unhappy to have a lot international trade. setting. The truth is, what I need to specific is that UBS is a tsundere.”
Joanna requested him: “So you do not select to open an account with UBS?”
An Feng nodded: “There is part of the rationale. I all the time really feel that I do not appear like a giant title once I come to the door in individual. As well as, when Credit score Suisse heard about my intention, it took the initiative to ask me to return. So between being a grandson and an uncle, I resolutely selected Uncle, even when Rui Suisse is just the second little one, there isn’t any second little one of a thousand years.”
Whereas chatting and laughing, I got here to the headquarters of Credit score Suisse.
As a result of I made an appointment prematurely, as quickly as I acquired out of the automobile and walked in, somebody got here as much as test the code…nicely, the title. After passing the verification, he was led to the upstairs workplace, which was nonetheless a separate giant workplace, divided into two areas, the within and the skin. The surface was utilized by the assistant, and the within was utilized by the proprietor of the workplace. There was just one foreigner. To be trustworthy once more, it is as if foreigners assume that folks of the yellow race look alike, and An Feng additionally thinks that white folks in international nations look comparable. The opposite get together is simply whiter, with the next nostril and blue eyes.
The tall international man in a swimsuit greeted him with a smile, and stated in English with a German accent: “Hello, Mr. An, good to fulfill you, my title is Friedman.”
“Hiya, Friedman, that is my spouse, Joanna.” An Feng briefly launched.
“Hiya, Mrs. Ann!”
After saying hey, each events sat down. Like his German title, Friedman speaks Swiss German, plus French, and a bit English, so communication continues to be barely there. Later, Joanna, who can communicate French, translated some troublesome factors for them, with out the necessity for a 3rd get together to intervene in the entire course of.
Wanting on the introduction, the opposite get together appears to be referred to as Friedmann von Herlandeck. In keeping with custom, his ancestors had been aristocrats, in any other case he wouldn’t have used the center title von (Feng), however nicely… the German Empire is lengthy gone, identical to the homeless nobles after the French Revolution, Gade continues to be Gade Von is all the time self-consoling, the noble woman is in entrance of him, and Joanna’s is the actual Girl.
However Friedman nonetheless has a standing in Credit score Suisse, in any other case he wouldn’t have a separate luxurious workplace within the headquarters. An Feng chatted with him about some enterprise affairs. There are greater than 700 million US {dollars} within the GP worldwide account, which is a giant deal. Prospects, Credit score Suisse is now going to win this type of huge prospects to struggle in opposition to UBS. Realizing that An Feng desires to rent a non-public financial institution assistant, the Swiss bankers with a eager sense of odor naturally odor the meat floating on the opposite facet of the Atlantic.
To place it merely, the cash is coming.
Since Friedman is the supervisor of GP’s worldwide offshore account, there isn’t any want for An Feng to cover his ideas and his wage for the following 4 years, in addition to immigrants and non-Individuals who maintain American inexperienced playing cards. After talking the essential info, Friedman propped his chin to assume.
After some time, he stated: “Mr. An, in accordance with your state of affairs, you do not have to fret an excessive amount of about your nationality. You possibly can apply for a test at any time and use it for international consumption within the title of the corporate—together with the US, as a result of it’s an offshore firm and doesn’t belong to an American firm. , strictly talking, this type of habits is working abroad.”
“Nonetheless, I do not advocate you to open a non-public account. The Individuals are too strict now, and you have already got an offshore firm that’s fully your individual. You possibly can spend immediately within the title of the corporate. At most, you’ll be able to’t write your title on the contract. title, however I believe it is only a small factor.”
An Feng is worried about one other level: “Aren’t you apprehensive about me holding a US inexperienced card?”
Friedman stated: “It will depend on the state of affairs. Whether it is an odd buyer, we are going to rigorously take into account it. In any case, the Individuals are urgent too onerous, however the huge prospects say in any other case. There are some tips on this, and we will not simply due to a bunch of Individuals. In a phrase, we should strictly comply with their orders.”
An Feng smiled: “I believe James Bond is true to reassure you.”
Bond stated: He solely believes in two varieties of individuals on the earth, himself and Swiss bankers.
Friedman nodded with a smile: “Inheriting a century-old fame, we now have seen even the largest storms. We won’t simply smash our personal indicators.”
