Chapter 1136 Going to Weigang Again
Since my dad is coming to inspect this project, Jin Muchen has to set up a front station for his dad. Besides, the major shareholder of his company must also show up in the company from time to time, otherwise the people in the company may not know the existence of his major shareholder, which would be not good.
Besides, he just happened to want to go to the institute to see how far the project led by Scott had progressed.
So in the evening, he called Hu Xuefeng first, asked about the situation of the Weigang Institute, and roughly learned about the scientific research progress of the institute in recent months. After having a draft, he called Scott Dietrich again, asked about the situation there, and finally told him that he planned to go over and take a look tomorrow, while Scott Dietrich welcomed Jin Muchen's upcoming arrival, and was very happy.
After hanging up the phone, Jin Muchen thought for a while, and then called Harvey again. After all, he helped to help with this project, and he was also the plenipotent representative of Jin Muchen at the Weigang Research Institute. So this time he went to the Weigang Research Institute for inspection, Harvey of course wanted to accompany him.
The two made an appointment and planned to set off from Jin Muchen's house together to Weigang Research Institute early the next morning.
The next morning, Harvey arrived at Jin Muchen's house early and had a breakfast at his house. Then the two drove the Rolls-Royce black label Phantom that Sultandong of Brunei gave Jin Muchen and set off together to go straight to the Weigang Institute at Pier 31.
Due to Manhattan's special geographical location, there are many various quays on this small island, and these quays are big and small. However, with the decline of the US manufacturing industry and the transformation of the economic development of the Manhattan region, many of the quays here have been closed or entered a period of transformation.
This Pier 31 was built in the 19th century. At that time, many cargoes from Europe would be disembarked here first, and then transported from here to all parts of the United States through the Hudson River, so the area covers a very large area.
However, in the late 1940s and after the end of World War II, with the rise of the American air cargo industry, the terminal was gradually abandoned. However, the area here is very large. Real estate developers once had the idea of it, but in the end they were scared away by the high bids from the Manhattan region government.
After entering the new century, Pier 31 has rejuvenated its second spring. Many startups have chosen the company's startup addresses here because the rent here is very cheap, and the large warehouses of the original pier can be used as offices as simply renovated. Moreover, it is also close to Manhattan and Wall Street, which is very convenient for people who intervene in venture capital or private equity. Therefore, many young new entrepreneurs like to select the company's initial location and set it here.
Because of this, Pier 31 has gradually developed again, especially in recent years, where there is a trend of gradually developing into an industrial park similar to that of China.
Government officials in the Manhattan area are also very satisfied with this phenomenon. They are also very interested in turning this place into an incubator for emerging companies. So after Jin Muchen came to Pier 31 this time, the most obvious feeling was that this place was much more prosperous than when he came last time.
But what surprised him even more was that the area of the Weigang Institute seemed to be much larger than last time. It turned out that they just rented an old warehouse with a backing to the dock. Now they are not only the original warehouse, but also rented another warehouse next to them as their own research institute.
When Jin Muchen arrived at Weigang Institute, he happened to see that Scott and most of the staff of the institute were waiting for him at the gate.
This way of greeting made Jin Muchen feel very familiar and very funny.
Who said that Americans don’t like to be sacrificing face? If you come out, I promise not to beat you to death. Jin Muchen smiled and scolded in his heart at this time.
It seems that the style of flattery is a rule that the whole world follows. Whether you have received the reception you deserve depends entirely on your status in the hearts of these guys and whether they need to flatter them.
Now it seems that Jin Muchen has reached a level that is worthy of favor in the hearts of Scott and the others.
Don’t think that those who do scientific research do not understand politics. In fact, people with real high emotional intelligence are the same even if they do any job. They all have the same characteristics, that is, they are particularly good at dealing with people.
Scott is the kind of scientist who is good at dancing. When he saw Jin Muchen's car, his eyes lit up. Even if he was not familiar with the car, he could know that the car in front of him was definitely not an ordinary luxury car.
The value of this car alone is definitely enough for this guy to throw it into his own research institute. And such a rich boss who is the backing of his own is really a blessing and has some troubles.
It is entirely because Jin Muchen, the major shareholder, is very suitable for being a big shopkeeper. He just pays money and does not interfere with the operation and operation of the institute at all. He never forces them to produce results before the deadline. He never puts pressure on the institute, nor does he point fingers at the research and development direction of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research and development of the research
Of course, such bosses are the favorites of those scientific researchers, just invest money and do not care about management.
"Haha, Mu Chen has been missing for a long time. You look very good."
As soon as Jin Muchen got off the car, Scott came over and gave him a big hug, and then said politely to him enthusiastically. Jin Muchen also laughed: "It's okay, Scott, you look very good too."
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's go inside and talk."
Scott warmly greeted Jin Muchen to walk inside. Jin Muchen was not too polite, and followed him and walked into the research institute.
When I arrived at the scientific research institute, I saw that the situation inside did not change much from the time I came before, but the number of people seemed to have increased a lot compared to before.
Scott directly welcomed Jin Muchen into an office, which was always empty and was also a relatively large room in the research institute. On the table in the middle of the office, there was also a famous brand of Jin Muchen, which also said executive director. Jin Muchen was very satisfied with Scott being so careful.
Although he doesn't come here often, he is the major shareholder of this scientific research institute, so no matter what, an office should be reserved for him.
Following Jin Muchen and the others were Harvey, Scott, and several other innocent faces. They seemed to be staff members of the research institute, a beautiful female secretary, who brought a few cups of coffee to everyone, then sat down and started to take meeting minutes.
"Okay, Scott, can you tell me about the current operation of our research institute?"
Since he had arrived, Jin Muchen took out the style of a major shareholder and asked Scott.
At the earliest time, Scott's research institute was used as joint replacement for femoral head necrosis. At that time, because of the tight funds, he thought about introducing strategic venture capital.
Because his project is relatively reliable, many venture capital companies are willing to spend money on him. After all, in recent years, due to the frequent quantitative easing policies of the Federal Reserve, these big bosses on Wall Street have made a lot of money.
And this money is finally going to be a place to go, but how to invest this money and where it goes is a problem.
Since 2010, especially the United States has frequently provoked troubles in the Middle East near Europe, such as Libya, Syria and Egypt, and the Middle East is in chaos.
This has led to a large number of refugees pouring into Europe, causing a series of deterioration in European security. In addition, the Ukrainian crisis in the past two years has intensified the political crisis in the EU and Russia, leading to further turbulence in European security issues. Especially in the past two years, terrorist attacks in Europe have occurred frequently, which has made European funds flee from Europe crazy for security issues. For these funds, the best and safest place to go, of course, the United States.
So in recent years, the US economic index has been optimistic all the time. The US stock index has soared from more than 6,000 points after the economic crisis in 2008 to more than 16,000 points. The Nasdaq index has tripled, and even the real estate index that dragged the US economy into the water has tripled.
Therefore, from the perspective of various indicators, the US economy can be said to be a prosperous scene. In addition, the US has released several consecutive non-agricultural employment indexes, which are gradually decreasing. This makes people feel that the US economic situation is even more sunny. The US is in its best stage in these years.
But in fact, people who are actually living in the United States and have some economic minds know that this is not the case at all. The American environment is not as wonderful as the data shows.
Especially Jin Muchen, he has a deep understanding of this wonderful illusion. After all, he tried to recruit jobs in the United States back then, and he has a deep understanding that jobs in the United States are not so easy to find, especially those more decent jobs, which are even more difficult to find.
