Kate Gracie did not go directly to the United States to handle the money given to him by Chang Sheng.
You don’t necessarily have to go to the United States to go surfing on Wall Street.
He has too many ways.
He called his classmates and former colleagues with whom he had a good relationship. He found two partners he trusted and entrusted them to handle the money. The task was to make this money generate more money in the short term.
In fact, among his classmates and former colleagues, there are still many people with whom he has a good relationship, both in terms of ability and professional ethics. However, when he was at his lowest, he had not contacted them, nor had he thought of asking for help.
Use their strength to make a comeback.
Because that was because he felt that he was a loser who had been kicked out of Wall Street, and he really had no shame in seeing them again.
Things are different now. After almost dying once, he has let go of all the knots he had in the past, started to face life again, and has the courage to face his friends.
In this way, he still lives in Chang Sheng's apartment, borrows Chang Sheng's computer and phone to practice with the ocean, and pays attention to a series of economic trends such as the Nasdaq index every day, so as to make his own judgment and decide to buy
What to buy, when to buy, what to sell, and when to sell.
Eighty thousand euros converted into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate of the euro to the U.S. dollar at the time was approximately 65,800 U.S. dollars.
At that time, the exchange rate of the euro against the U.S. dollar was very low. This was not a good time to convert to U.S. dollars, but Chang Sheng could not wait any longer.
He knew that he was pressed for time. If he wanted to catch up with the opportunity to get rich overnight, he had to start taking action now. Otherwise, the later he got, the harder it would be.
Such a sum of money is almost negligible in the story. If you throw it away, you won't even see a splash.
However, because there are few and the targets are small, they are not eye-catching. Kate Gracie and her friends are simpler to operate and have more room for maneuver.
Anyway, this is what Kate Gracie and her companions are best at.
Usually they operate orders worth at least several million dollars. These more than 60,000 US dollars are really hard to get rid of. If it weren't for Kate's sake, they wouldn't care.
But maybe just because the focus on gains and losses is not so heavy, some inspirations will come to me.

Kate Gracie stayed in Getafe and didn't go anywhere. While paying attention to the situation in the United States, she was still "soliciting sponsorship" for the victory.
Because of the successful example of Jiabao Supermarket, his job has become easier.
Many merchants came to him on their own initiative. They expressed their hope to invite Chang Sheng to be their spokesperson.
The only regret is that these businesses are all local to Getafe, the money they can pay is not high, and their influence is really limited.
In fact, celebrity endorsement is a win-win behavior. Products or brands gain more attention and recognition through celebrity endorsement, which enhances their own fame and brand value. In turn, celebrities use endorsements for influential brands to enhance their own
Level up and improve your visibility.
No one on either side suffers, and this is a mutually beneficial act.
For example, some well-known brands hire endorsement stars who are all international superstars. This not only increases the influence of the brand itself, but also highlights the status of the stars.
Now Changsheng can only attract local brands and businesses in Getafe, which shows that Changsheng's influence is very useful in Getafe. But apart from Getafe, I don't know...
After some negotiation and screening.
In the end, Chang Sheng was awarded two more endorsement contracts.
They were endorsements for a local bakery called "Colico" in Getafe for one year. They received an endorsement fee of 40,000 euros, and the bakery supplied all kinds of bread for free for one year.
Endorsed a fitness center called "Rambler" for one year and received an endorsement fee of 60,000 euros.
Getafe is a satellite city in the Madrid region. It is an authentic workers' district. In Europe, anything with the mark of workers means that it will be very poor.
In Europe, the industrial revolution and upgrading, as well as various reasons, have caused many factories to close down. Developed countries have moved their factories to third world countries, leaving many workers in their own countries unemployed. The formerly prosperous industrial base is now also
All withered.
For example, Manchester in the United Kingdom was originally a famous industrial city. It prospered because of industry and became the busiest city and the most prosperous place in the world at that time. But now many factories have closed down, workers are unemployed, and the city's economy is depressed. Many people
Choose to leave and go elsewhere. The city has also lost its past prosperity and has become a bit deserted. If it weren't for football, it might not be worth mentioning.
So will Getafe.
As long as you have anything to do with workers, you are basically poor.
In terms of the size of satellite cities, Getafe can only rank fourth in the Madrid region. In the past two years, the government has been engaged in the construction of new urban areas in Getafe. To put it nicely, it is actually building a new urban area specifically for low-income families.
The residential buildings are densely packed in rows and look much more orderly than the haphazardly arranged buildings in the old town south of Getafe.
However, this kind of neat and uniform buildings looks very dull. Viewed from the air, these buildings with orange-red roofs are as if they were carved out of the same mold, copied and pasted directly into one piece, filling up one after another.
A block.
This kind of house is called "affordable housing" in China...
Most of the people living here are very poor, and they are all workers or low-income groups.
Their spending power is limited, and the business potential here is also limited.
Therefore, it is really not easy to find too many suitable contracts for Chang Sheng.
Even with Kate Gracie's diligent efforts, she could only find three.
Although Getafe is his hometown, he has advised Chang Sheng more than once that if possible, it is best to leave here. Compared with the wider world outside, Getafe is like a small puddle...

The day after Chang Sheng signed these two endorsement contracts, Carlos Mediano also came to visit, hoping to conduct a more comprehensive and detailed interview with Chang Sheng. The content of this interview was not limited to
Football also involves all aspects of winning.
The material they shot back from their last trip to China was finally made into a 40-minute documentary after a month of post-production. It was then cut into two episodes and broadcast on a small local TV station in Getafe.
The response was very good. Everyone is eager to know more about Chang Sheng.
So Mediano came to see Chang Sheng.
At the same time, Mediano also brought Chang Sheng an endorsement contract.
They hope that Chang Sheng can become the image spokesperson of "Getafe Local Life" newspaper. For this reason, they are willing to pay 100,000 euros to obtain the right to endorse Chang Sheng for one year.
This is the highest-paying endorsement contract Chang Sheng has received.
Kate Gracie is overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, I gave him a surprise in the end.
As if he was afraid that the other party would regret it, he quickly encouraged Chang Sheng to agree.
In fact, Chang Sheng himself was very excited.
One hundred thousand euros a year...
One million yuan!
This is the most expensive endorsement contract he has ever received.
He is just staying in a small place like Getafe...
If he goes to a wider stage in the future, what will it be like?
Maybe the most popular head coach in the world will no longer be as popular as Jose Mourinho...
Chang Sheng agreed to Mediano's request while thinking in his heart.
In this way, the two parties signed a contract worth 100,000 euros.
The next day, Mediano invited Chang Sheng to their newspaper office for an exclusive interview, during which he took many photos.
Finally, a photo of the ever-victorious Malaysian Golden Saber sitting on a chair, holding the Getafe Local Life newspaper in both hands while reading carefully was selected as the final promotional image.
Another day later, this photo appeared as a full page on the last page of the "Getafe Local Life" newspaper. When readers open the newspaper and read the content inside, they will naturally read the front page.
The last page was exposed. It was exactly the same as Chang Sheng's posture, so the image of Chang Sheng and the name of the newspaper appeared in a prominent position.
Below the photo is the text.
"I love Getafe, and I also love Getafe Local Life. I am always victorious."
On this day, just because of this photo, the sales of "Getafe Local Life" newspaper reached a new high. Many people did not even buy the newspaper to read the newspaper. They bought the newspaper just to see this big photo of Chang Sheng. They felt very
Cool, handsome and domineering.
Some people simply choose to collect this newspaper.
Because it’s so memorable.
Later facts proved how correct these readers who chose to collect...

As soon as several endorsement contracts were signed, Chang Sheng suddenly received more money. The total amount was 200,000 euros.
Chang Sheng did not touch any of this money, and gave it all to Kate Gracie to continue investing in the stock market.
The 80,000 euros that were previously given to Kate Gracie, after some short-term operations, have now doubled to 160,000 euros, which is 130,000 US dollars.
After selling in batches, plus the 200,000 euros, Kate's friends re-entered the stock market and continued to make more money little by little.
Kate Gracie registered a shell company here in the Cayman Islands with a winning name. The company's address is in the five-story office building of Agland House on Church Street in Georgetown, Cayman Islands.
The building specifically provides office addresses for more than 10,000 companies around the world, including world-renowned companies such as Baidu, Seagate, Coca-Cola, Oracle, Sina, China Unicom, and Lenovo.
The reason why so many companies are registered here is because of the unique advantages of the Cayman Islands - zero tax and account confidentiality.
Almost all of the world's twenty-five largest banks have subsidiaries or branches in Cayman. On average, more than 4,000 companies are registered here every year. The company registered by Kate Gracie for Changsheng is called "
The company "Winner" is just an inconspicuous one among them.
The main reason why this small island country is so attractive is its financial policy. The only taxes on the island are import tax, stamp duty, industrial and commercial registration tax, tourist tax and a few simple taxes. There has been no personal income tax or corporate income tax for decades.
Income tax, capital gains tax, real estate tax, inheritance tax and other direct taxes. Foreign exchange can enter and exit freely in Cayman, and various departments are tight-lipped about investors' financial information.
Such convenient conditions help major companies, financial institutions and funds to evade taxes. More than 150 U.S. companies have registered subsidiaries in Georgetown, the capital of Cayman, including The Coca-Cola Company, Intel Corporation, Oracle Corporation, and Procter & Gamble.
Etc. Usually the parent company will transfer profits to these subsidiaries through various channels, so that most of the company's income does not have to be reported to the U.S. Taxation Bureau and avoids the U.S. corporate income tax rate of up to 35%.
This is also the reason why Kate Gracie chose to register her company here.
Although he didn't know why Chang Sheng, a promising football coach, would think of registering a company. However, he knew that the capital of a small-scale company like Chang Sheng was very fragile and its financial resources were not strong. If it were opened elsewhere in the world,
, just paying taxes is a terrible expense.
Only by opening here can you avoid a large number of taxes in various categories.
Saving your employer's money means saving your own wallet.

ps, this book will definitely not turn into a business war novel...but the explanations that should be given still need to be written. Don't worry, football still occupies a huge proportion. (To be continued...)
