Chapter 237
As soon as the application was exposed, the market value of the L brand, which had fallen for 3 days, rose to about 2 billion US dollars in the morning, and by the end of the afternoon, the market value had risen to almost 2.1 billion US dollars.
This caused a lot of people who bought or dropped the L brand after the market opened at 9 o'clock that day suffered heavy losses. The next day, the outside world was already noisy, and many people clamored to report William's illegal operation of controlling the stock price to the US stock market.
However, after receiving the memorandum from the Swiss National Bank, the relevant US stock market authorities kept silent for a few days after the investigation, because the futures contracts of buying up and down the L brand were obviously operated by the funds of the Swiss National Bank. William has nothing to do with it.
Except for a sum of more than 4 billion U.S. dollars that showed up in several brokerages, there was no follow-up after expressing the intention to acquire the L brand to these brokers, and this intention was only expressed verbally, William's money Never entered the stock market at all.
The Swiss National Bank will help because when the current president, Jon Grace, received a call from William, he heard William say that if you make money, your bank will make a loss. If you lose money, you will compensate the bank elsewhere.
Of course, Qiang Grace will not refuse this kind of business that is guaranteed to make a profit without losing money. He himself witnessed William making a lot of money in March this year, and he is full of confidence in William's vision.
Sure enough, the ending was as he expected. In Switzerland, the president's office of the National Bank, Jon Grace looked at the statement in his hand with excitement, and said to Felix, William's exclusive account manager: "We made 6,000 in three days. Ten thousand dollars? How did you do it? Show me the operation records."
After taking over the operation records that Felix had prepared a long time ago, after reading it, Qiang-Gris sat silently on the boss chair, shook his head and said, "Is your team's sense of market capital changes so accurate? They operate faster than others.”
"Sorry, sir, it's not that our team is strong, but Mr. William Devonhill's judgment is too accurate, he can always give orders a second or two faster than others, which makes all our operations seem extremely risky. Large, but the actual risk is zero, so,,”
After Felix finished speaking, he apologized, took the report form from Jon Grace and walked to the shredder, and put the operation records in his hand into the shredder. shredded paper, and finally took out the shredded paper without reassurance and put it into the feeding port of the shredder again and shredded it again, until the shredded paper was completely turned into paper foam before stopping.
He turned his head and explained to Qiang-Grace who was surprised by his actions, "The server motherboard of this transaction has been destroyed by Mr. Devon Hill's people in front of me, that is, I still have some face, using personality After the guarantee, I got these dozens of operation records to show you,
You should have seen those bodyguards that Mr. Devonhill stayed in the VIP client room, and if it leaks out, I don't know what my end will be, so I'm sorry, Mr. Grace."
Jon Gryce opened his mouth and looked at Felix who was smiling. He felt helpless. Jon Greg knew that he, the president, could not control Felix now, because the bank only paid Felix 24. million Swiss francs,
Since following William, Felix not only bought a manor in Switzerland that covers an area of more than 110 acres, but also invested in a luxury resort on the Iron Cross Mountain with the ten traders in his group.
I heard that not only William's bodyguards have invested in the resort, but also the total investment of more than 100 million Swiss francs. The most important thing is that William told them that the idea of this resort, which is the main resort, is two or three years. -Grace is itching.
Whoever can make money with you these days is the boss, so Qiang-Gris didn't mean to be angry at all, waved his hand, sat back on the boss's chair, pointed to the chair opposite, "It's okay, sit down, let's talk The resort you invested in?"
"Of course, Mr. Grace," Felix sat across from Jon Grace with a smile. Anyway, there were as many as 22 shareholders in that resort, and he didn't care that one more person became 23.
In the past few days while waiting for the investigation, William received a phone call from his mother, Lena, with only one sentence: The Earl of Oxford is dead. The outside world showed their strength and influence to avoid problems in the inheritance of the title.
In the end, Lena sternly warned William that if he could not inherit the title that belonged to them, she would never forgive William, and even told William not to return to the castle in the future.
As soon as this happened, William's original plan was disrupted. The big mother was the biggest. Facing Lena's repeated warnings, William could only temporarily put on hold the plan to secretly acquire the L brand. After reassuring Lena,
On the one hand, William was thinking about how to reasonably show the strength of their Devon Hill to the outside world.
Three days later, William and the L brand signed a contract with the participation of the U.S. Supervisory Commission, and 5's shares also made William officially an independent director of the company's board of directors.
It's not that he doesn't want more shares, but that the old chairman of the L brand bears the pressure of William to expose their company's scandal, and would rather only give William 5 shares, and only give William an independent director. The position of Quan, the fear is that William, relying on the advantage of funds, will take advantage of the customer and swallow the company he built.
For William, these 5 shares are like an entry ticket. If you want shares, can you buy them slowly in the stock market? In the contract he signed with the L brand, there was no agreement prohibiting acquisitions in the market.
As long as he enters the board of directors, William can take the opportunity of contacting those directors to quietly acquire or exchange the shares of other companies for the shares of the L brand, but now the matter of the title has become a problem.
Everything is messed up, so I can only use the signing press conference to say some good things first, leave some good impressions, and then talk about it after the title is over.
The reporters who had just signed the contract and were waiting for interviews heard William sitting on the podium say something surprising to them before they could speak.
"The reason for taking a stake in the l brand is because I am optimistic about this company. If the chairman of the l brand did not let go, I would like to buy it wholly and then leave it to him to take care of it. Unfortunately, this is impossible.
A company that can't let me call the shots means nothing to me, it really doesn't arouse my interest, let's talk about something else, and this amount of money is not as much as I made in two days."
Chapter 328 Devon Hill Family Foundation
"Boom", the whole hall immediately turned into a vegetable market, scolding, exclamation, and inhalation sounded repeatedly. Even Ambrosio, who was sitting in the guest seat, covered his mouth and stared at William with wide eyes.
Although I have heard that William's wealth exceeds 20 billion, the figure of 20 billion is more than 1.1 billion US dollars in two days. Looking at William, I can't wait to swallow him.
The chairman of the l brand sitting next to William looked at William in horror. Although William said he was not interested in the l brand, he also said that it was because the l brand company was not in charge of him.
If William suddenly says that he promises to earn 1 billion US dollars a year with the L brand, his chairman will immediately be ousted by other shareholders.
This is not an alarmist, but he suddenly has this idea. If he can make one billion US dollars a year, the market value of the L brand company can immediately soar to over 10 billion US dollars, and his wealth will also increase by 5 times. As long as the profit is stable In two or three years, the market value has soared to 15 billion, and 20 billion is not impossible.
"I pulled the devil into my company," the old man muttered in a low voice.
William, who has a good hearing, turned his head and smiled at the old man, patted the microphone, opened his eyes and lied after the reporters slowly quieted down: "Although the company is too small for me to be interested, I feel The panorama of this company is still very good, and if you believe my judgment, those who are interested can try to buy it.”
"No problem", "I'll buy it after it's over", William's record in the stock market has made many reporters excited.
"Thank you, thank you for your trust, and I promise you won't regret this decision in a few years."
William smiled and looked at the excited reporters. He understood the reason for saying this. If you want to get it, you have to pay first. If you say something good at no cost, you can not only gain the favor of other shareholders of L brand, but also help you to invest in L brand in the future. Prepare.
"Okay, be quiet, guys." After clapping the microphone, William continued, "If you have friends in a hurry, you can go first."
Sure enough, the reporters are all old fritters, so they wouldn't act just because of William's words. He smiled nonchalantly and waited for half a minute. William joked, "There have been a lot of rumors about my extravagance in the past two days."
"Hahaha", everyone burst into laughter. The cursing against Ambrosio and the accusations against William's extravagant spending in the past two days were all made by journalists like them. They were all secretly happy. We are sad for you, William. Devon Hill, even the richest man, can't think better.
Covering his forehead, he looked at the reporters speechlessly, "I originally wanted to give these shares as a gift to a certain girl I love. Now, looking at your reactions, I think about it and forget it."
"Yes, if you do that, you will not only be scolded to death, but Miss Ambrosio will be accused by everyone," someone suddenly said loudly.
"Haha, that's right," the people around agreed.
Only when Ambrosio gave William a big stare, she knew very well that William would give him shares to be a ghost. Saying these is just to completely dispel her unreasonable thoughts, and also to please those ordinary people who have opinions on him. people.
Satisfied, he glanced at the self-aware Ambrosio. The real reason for not giving away the shares was that William did not think that his relationship with Ambrosio was good enough for him to give away such a large amount of wealth willingly.
Ambrosio is not the mother of his child now, no matter how much he likes it, the relationship between the two of them is only a relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend.
Even if it is a wife, no one will directly send shares, some jewelry, and real estate, but it is really too much to send shares.
If he really gave it away, as the value of these shares rose in the future, people would not only praise him, but ridicule him for being an idiot, giving away hundreds of millions for a woman who is not a wife and mother of a child, More than a billion dollars in shares, this is definitely a joke that will be laughed at by the world for more than ten years and decades.
"The second is that your gift tax in the United States is too high, only a little bit lower than the inheritance tax. To be honest, I am really reluctant to give tens of millions of dollars to the relevant departments of your United States. If you have this money, it is better to buy it for my girlfriend. A few pieces of clothing and jewelry, and then go directly to those in need."
"Oh, that's right, William, it's better to do charity as a gift to the vampires in the United States." As soon as he finished speaking, the scene burst into laughter like a vegetable market, and dissatisfaction with the taxation of the United States was heard from time to time in the crowd.
"Bang bang bang", after laughing for a long time, William patted the microphone and said with a smile, "Yes, I might as well do charity if I have the money."
"God," someone exclaimed, the business is coming, and everyone heard what William was going to say next, so there was no need to remind the venue to quiet down.
"The second thing I'm going to announce is about the establishment of the Devon Hill Family Foundation," after a pause, William continued after the muttering died down: "You know I was born into a single-parent family, so this foundation's charitable object There is only one, and that is those single-parent families for various reasons."
"Can you interrupt for a moment? Devon Hill student," a middle-aged reporter with a stubble face stood up a little excitedly and raised his hand, "I'm sorry, I know it's rude to interrupt you now, but I myself As a single father of three children, I would love to know that your fund does not include single male families like me raising children.”
"Well," William was a little surprised by this question, scratched his head, and said apologetically, "To be honest, at first, I really didn't think about sponsoring male single fathers, because in my subconscious, this kind of behavior is not only not helping, but will make it worse." They think it's humiliation, do you understand when I say that?"
"No, gender equality, and raising children are divided between men and women? Why can't your foundation help single-parent male families like me."
"Okay." After a moment of groaning in his heart, William said, "Can I ask how old your child is?"
"Of course, my wife died of illness three years ago. The youngest child was 2 when she died, the oldest was 7, and the other was 5."
