After arriving in California, Zheng Bai Cheng felt that his life was still relatively smooth. Now, he was just waiting for the movie to air, but it wouldn't be released until the end of June, almost a month away.
"Let's go on a trip this time, let's go to the East Coast. I heard that New York is the economic center of the world," Zheng Bai Cheng, having lived two lives, had never been abroad. Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally wanted to go out and see the world. Moreover, he wanted to go to Delaware to check on his shell company.
"WHAT！？The great writer is going on a trip, am I hearing this right? Aren't you writing novels at home? Travel will delay your time?"
The one who could say this certainly wasn't Lin Xiao Hua, she wouldn't make Zheng Bai Cheng angry; it couldn't be Hans either, he was a silent and taciturn big man. It had to be Amanda. She wouldn't indulge her careful boss. He didn't pay her in full, which made her very upset. Of course, Zheng Bai Cheng had also told her before: "Amanda, you have so much money, you must be spending it recklessly. You won't be able to save any money in the future. When you buy a car and a house, will you rely on loans? At that time, you will become a slave of the bank, they will enslave you in disguise."
It was so reasonable, she couldn't say FUC. The resentment in her heart could only be vented on her boss, launching into a mode of constant nagging. Of course, she couldn't be completely ruthless. She still held the money in her hands, and besides, he said: "I'm paying you in North America, you should know that personal income tax in North America is very high, so tell me, do you want me to pay you in North America?"
Of course not, the individual income tax in Hong Kong... What is individual income tax? After arriving in Hong Kong, Amanda's values completely crumbled. Paying NM individual income tax, the damned British colonial officials, coming to Hong Kong to mess with me, go to hell!!!
"Go or not, if you don't go, you stay home to watch the house."
F**K! Of course he had to go, Amanda immediately said: "Of course I'm going, you're the boss. What if you have legal problems here in North America? With me, a lawyer, by your side, wouldn't you be relieved of many worries?" She looked like she had won.
"Xiao Hua, you should learn more law from Amanda. Learning law allows you to have the confidence to speak to your boss like Amanda does."
Lin Xiao Hua showed a shy smile, while Amanda was about to jump up and down. This guy Zheng Bai Cheng, was too damn shameless.
Their group had no baggage. The night before their departure, Zheng Bai Cheng called Hong Kong to inquire about the situation there, and then asked them to close shop and wait for him to return. He asked Xiao Fen and her family to move from Kowloon Peninsula to Hong Kong Island, where it was safer. He also asked them to take care of Grocery Strong.
He also called City Daily and Commercial Daily. He was going to send the two manuscripts over. The two newspapers were currently in desperate need of content, and their current serialization was about to end. After hearing Zheng Bai Cheng's words, they were very happy and asked him to send them by airmail, they were willing to pay extra.
Now Hong Kong was a bit tense, most people stayed at home reading newspapers and novels, afraid to go out. The recent ratings of Commercial Radio were also very high. They had also bought the broadcasting rights to Zheng Bai Cheng's two novels, making them experience a bittersweet moment. Although the advertising prices had risen, the volume had decreased significantly.
But that didn't matter. As long as the ratings rose, they would naturally earn it back in the future.
North America in June, the temperature was still comfortable. Flying from Los Angeles to New York took more than six hours, it was very tiring, it was a diagonal flight.
Before boarding, Zheng Bai Cheng asked Hans to eat more, lest he become 'weak,' Amanda was very unhappy with this guy.
After boarding the plane, apart from Hans who didn't rest, the other three closed their eyes and went to sleep. The journey was so long, six hours or more. It was natural to fall asleep so that time would pass faster. After waking up, they might have already arrived in New York.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, they came out of the airport. The hotel car was already waiting for them. When Amanda booked the hotel, she also ordered a car to pick them up, which made things much easier, but the cost was also much higher. However, Zheng Bai Cheng didn't care about this small amount of money. His royalties would be paid in July. He heard that the royalties were quite high, and his novels were very popular in the United States. Zheng Bai Cheng didn't know how popular they were specifically.
"Is this the Plaza Hotel?"
"Yes, great writer, only the Plaza Hotel can match your status and prestige." The four stood outside the Plaza Hotel, looking up at it.
The Plaza Hotel was very famous, many leaders and celebrities had stayed here. Moreover, the famous Plaza Accord of the future was signed here. It was not just a hotel, it was also a tourist attraction.
"VERYGOOD! Amanda, you finally did something that pleased me."
Ignoring Amanda, who was a little upset, Zheng Bai Cheng walked ahead with Lin Xiao Hua clinging to his arm. Hans followed behind. Amanda, who had been sullen in place, immediately followed. She went to the front desk and reported her name and phone number. This time they booked three rooms, three ordinary rooms. In this matter, Amanda saved Zheng Bai Cheng some money.
In Zheng Bai Cheng and Lin Xiao Hua's room, his room was bigger, with a living room.
"Our first stop is Wall Street, let's go see the splendor of the world's financial center, and then go to Fifth Avenue nearby..."
"Heh... Boss, what do you mean? Go to Fifth Avenue? Go and have a look, then you can't buy anything?"
Amanda interrupted Zheng Bai Cheng. She was holding the hotel's New York travel guide and making arrangements. When she mentioned Fifth Avenue, she started to complain. Her salary was deducted, and she was very unhappy. Going there without money, only able to watch others spend, wouldn't her heart be full of grass?
Zheng Bai Cheng said: "I am the boss!"
"You're the boss, so you're great, I..."
"$1000 per person, you can shop within this limit. I'll pay."
"Long live the boss!"
Amanda's face changed speed, exceeding the speed of light, even the honest Hans couldn't help but widen his eyes. Lin Xiao Hua covered her mouth and chuckled, her Cheng Ge loved to play tricks.
"We'll leave tomorrow, let's rest today. It's true that flying is very tiring."
The planes of this era were naturally incomparable to the planes of the future, they were still bumpy and uncomfortable. The frequent flyer who bought a lifetime free ticket, maybe he was used to flying, otherwise, how could he bear it?
