Chapter 822 Los Angeles Olympics

"Volunteers are being recruited! Volunteers are being recruited for the Los Angeles Olympics! Los Angeles needs your participation to rekindle the Olympic flame after 52 years!"

"Torchbearer! Torchbearer! Not 9,900, not 8,880! With only 3,000 US dollars, you can personally hold the Olympic flame."

"Handsome sir, beautiful lady, are you interested in serving as volunteers for next year's Olympic Games? Although there is no reward, you can make many friends from all over the world at this event!"

In the downtown area of ​​Los Angeles, a group of student-looking people wearing Olympic five-ring vests were handing out leaflets on the street. Carter, who had just gotten off the car, naturally could not escape the gaze of these people.

"Ask them, I'm not familiar with Los Angeles! I'm afraid a person who doesn't know the road won't be able to become a volunteer!"

Carter was very patient with students who were obviously participating in social practice activities.

While declining the other party with a gentle smile, he pointed at Anna and Joey who were getting off the car behind him.

"Anna, are you interested in being volunteers?"

"We have already signed up!"

Smiling and nodding to the students handing out flyers, Anna walked over to Carter after receiving a thank you and blessing:

"Will you come to the Los Angeles Olympics next year? Melis and Jenny will both participate."

"they?"

Carter was a little surprised that Melis would take the initiative to sign up as a volunteer?!

"No, not very good! Oracle's recruitment requirements are very high, and I can't meet them."

"Melise is required by the school, of course, it is not mandatory. She mainly spends time with her friends, and part of the campus of the University of California, Irvine campus has been requisitioned as an athlete dormitory. As for my mother, you see, we all went there, and she

It’s boring to be at home alone, isn’t it?”

As one of the former heads of HT's purchasing department, Anna's market research work focused more on the practicality of the software. Using herself as a model, she thought about the prospects of this software.

It can improve work efficiency and reduce labor, even if the price of one purchase is high! However, normal people know how to choose between short-term pain and long-term pain!

"So I recommend you to pay attention to this niche area, how about it? Now you know how to study? I told you to go to college before, but you just didn't listen to me. Are you embarrassed now? As far as I know, Oracle's corporate culture is not

What a kind Santa Claus!”

"Tax dollars can't be spent, and the federal government doesn't allocate funds."

The first Olympic Games invested and held by private industrial and commercial enterprises, and it also achieved profits beyond expectations!

"And our current conditions are much better than those of ordinary people, and much better than before! I deposited the two million you gave me in Bank of America, and the daily interest is a little over five hundred dollars. Fifteen thousand a month

Thousand, this money is enough for me to hire 8 employees, and the remaining money can be used to pay rent."

Smiling and shaking his head, Carter had no objection to his family participating in charity activities. It would be good if Jenny could make some friends in volunteer activities when she first arrived in a strange environment, without the company of her neighbors in the past.

!

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympics can be regarded as a milestone in Olympic history.

It seems that she is not a person who studies at heart. Anna shook her head fiercely, perhaps to reassure Carter, Anna added proudly:

"You simply don't take our taxpayers' hard-earned money seriously. What's the point of running this ridiculous Olympics!"

"I recently secured a place for him to be an auditor at the Irvine campus and let him study systems. Carter, during this time I have researched the relational database software market you mentioned, and the prospects are indeed not small! If before

, HT can have this system, and its work efficiency can be greatly improved, and it can also save a lot of labor costs!"

"Think about it and go to college for a few years first. It doesn't matter! There is still a lot of time!"

"Joy, how's your job going lately?"

"Never mind them, as long as it doesn't cost taxes!"

Along the way, except for some booths recruiting volunteers, there was no Olympic village construction project or sports arena construction project at all. Carter listened to the discussions of these Los Santos natives, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Following Anna into the restaurant, Carter's ears were filled with discussions about next year's Los Angeles Olympics as they passed other tables.

Carter suddenly thought of a good idea!

"OK OK, just be happy!"

"Okay, it's convenient and quick!"

"I just want to know, can she know her way around Los Angeles now?"

Expectations, but not very good expectations:

"Forget it, just let Joey go. I'd better take action first, time in the market passes much faster than time in our lives! IBM's R system will be on the market after Christmas, such a big-name company

We're all going to be so slow, I'm afraid we won't even be able to take a sip of the soup!"

"Let's see what they can do this time!"

The total investment was more than 500 million US dollars, and the final profit was 225 million. It was only one step away from achieving a 50% return on investment, which is not a failure! But... that was only for the Los Angeles Olympic Games Organizing Committee.

In addition to making Peter Ueberroth famous, the companies that actually participated in the investment basically did not make much if they only looked at their books! After all, the majority of the source of funds, sports event broadcasting rights, alone was given to the Olympic Organizing Committee

Brought nearly 400 million U.S. dollars.

"I'm definitely not familiar with this part of the city, but it's just that it's near Melis' school. As a volunteer, Jenny can give directions and provide some basic help to some foreign athletes, tourists, etc. It's okay. Okay, that's it.

Have lunch at this restaurant, their risotto is really good!”

Looking at Anna, who was smiling so hard that her eyes were narrowed, and she looked like she had taken advantage of her, Carter felt a little helpless. The thinking of a small businessman is not so easy to change.

Although, it sounds like it’s really cool to have operating costs almost completely offset by interest. But how long can this thing last?!

It is because of the outrageous high interest rates in the past few years that this situation has occurred. When the environment returns to normal, I still want to be so relaxed.

Forget it, talking more is useless!

After chatting for a while, I got to know Melis's current situation in the past six months in advance, such as whether she secretly went to those messy companies near Hollywood to interview models and actors behind her family's back, and how she got along with her classmates at the new school.

So and so.

After chatting, Carter brought up his own affairs:

"Sister, I need to ask you to help me pay attention to something next year. This is the business card of Counselor Lin, the Commercial Counselor of the New York Consulate. You should keep it first. When the Chinese delegation arrives in the United States before the Olympic Games next year, you can take it with you.

, go and contact them on my behalf.”

"Aren't you not interested in the Olympics? Why?"

After taking the business card from Carter, Anna glanced at it twice and put it into her bag.

Anna has become accustomed to being manipulated by this cheap brother in various ways.

"I'm not very interested in the Olympics, but that doesn't mean I can't forget it. If there are too many, don't worry about it. When the time comes, I'll find an athlete named Li Ning in the delegation and sign the overseas authorization for his name and trademark rights.
