When Pedro heard Sophie say the words "we are still good friends" for the second time, he felt a bit dumbfounded in his heart.
In any case, it was him who executed the plan. The Kexijia Guild was so miserable that it was not only the leader who was forced to enforce family law, but also had to pay a large sum of blood to compensate others.
But looking at the expressions of gratitude and tears in the eyes of the people in the Kexijia Guild just now, he felt that something was wrong. . .
But it was funny, and Pedro began to wake up in his heart. He remembered the Chinese proverb "A embankment of a thousand miles will collapse in an ant nest", which refers to Johnson's situation.
As he thought about it, he became concerned about the harvest this time, "How much did we spend to win the ego?"
"This time we acquired 71% of the equity of ego Group and some other bits and pieces, which cost us US$9.833 billion."
Ego Group has total assets of 23.847 billion U.S. dollars. It only cost less than 10 billion U.S. dollars to gain absolute control. It is already a huge profit. Such a large-scale manufacturing enterprise located in the upper reaches of the industrial chain is not necessarily something you can buy if you have money. In the eyes of the old money families in Europe, it can be regarded as a "family treasure".
Inconspicuous enterprises such as chemical industry, metallurgy, and raw material production are the most valuable assets in the eyes of the consortium. This is also the fundamental industry for them to protect their status. Other industries will be more or less related to these industries. association.
In addition to using banks to provide funds, the consortium will also use these enterprises to extend its reach to other walks of life, in order to achieve the purpose of indirectly controlling various social and economic activities.
In fact, the Kexijia Guild did not suffer much financial losses this time. They even made a little profit after the clearance sale of some properties at discounted prices. However, after losing one of the "treasures of the gang", the ego group, the biggest loss was Although there are other "treasures to suppress the gang", their voice in Gaul has been greatly weakened.
It took them seventy or eighty years to develop the ego group to where it is today. It just changed hands to a fringe fund in such a confused way. In Sophie's opinion, it was really amazing that they were able to get the ego group without much effort. There is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves.
Among them, Johnson's share was officially confiscated, and everyone then divided the stolen goods internally. When Sophie got it, it only cost 3.496 billion at a 50% discount. When she bought other people's shares in the Kexijia Guild, there was no price reduction, so the original price was 63.37. 100 million.
If Sophie had kept the price down when facing that group of people just now, she might have been able to get a discount of about two billion dollars, and what she would have gained would not have been the grateful and tearful eyes. . .
But after listening to Sophie's words, Pedro felt awkward and said with a weird look on his face.
“I remember that in the list of the world’s richest people just released by Forbes in July, the personal net worth of Kenneth Thomas, the 15th, was US$17.2 billion, and the eco equity we own is converted into assets of US$16.8 billion.
But I don’t think our net worth can be ranked among the top 100 in the world. Why do I feel that Forbes is not accurate at all. "
After hearing this, Sophie joked directly: "That's an individual, not a business or an organization. Besides, Forbes is just an estimate. They don't have the ability to figure out how much wealth everyone has. Not even CIA and kgb can do this." .
By the way, your brother almost made the list this year. mh Group is now valued at US$6.76 billion. If his equity is converted into the 100th place, it would be US$4.5 billion. Fortunately, we helped him clear up some traces. "
Pedro felt that his outlook was shattered. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the employees of the fund still deposited 500 US dollars every day as usual, no matter how much the number of people increased.
Thinking of this, he didn't know how to complain, but his heart started to rise again, because he always felt that this was a time bomb.
"Ms. Sophie..."
"What's up?"
"Well, it's the money that employees save every day..." Pedro said hesitantly.
Sophie suddenly stopped and stared directly at Pedro, making him feel a sense of oppression, and he secretly screamed that it was not good.
Could it be that I asked some taboo question?
At this time, they were the only two people in the entire corridor, and Pedro felt terrified by this look and didn't know what to do.
After a long time, Sophie said quietly: "Logically speaking, you have also passed the assessment, so you should be qualified to know this matter, but I still have to ask you one last time, are you sure you really want to know?"
Pedro was also in the middle of a war between heaven and man at this time. He understood what Sophie meant. This was also a choice given to him. If he no longer cared about the money, he would continue to be the head of his market development department. From now on You can only stay on the periphery of the organization. You will not be rich in your life, but you can still live a very nourishing life.
And if you want to know this, you have to get on the ship completely, or you will never get off the ship.
Pedro was also struggling in his heart. In fact, as long as he refused, he would definitely be able to live his life comfortably.
But do you really give up like that?
Is this all my life? Am I willing to live like this?
It only took more than two months for his life struggle to reach its end, but Pedro only felt a sense of emptiness. Has he lost all motivation?
No!
This is not the end, this is the starting point!
After a long time, Pedro's eyes slowly became firm.
"I want to know!"
After hearing this, Sophie didn't say anything and just took him into the chairman's office. She didn't do anything else but turned on her computer and logged into a darknet website.
"First register an account."
Pedro looked at the website page. Except for the search boxes in the center and the login/registration in the upper right corner, there was nothing else. It was cleaner than a dog licking it, so he did what Sophie said. .
Then the page turned to the page for filling in information. There were only columns for real name, nickname, password settings, etc.
"Your real information has been entered, now you just need to fill in these things." Sophie explained from the side.
Pedro quickly filled in his name and password, and after thinking for a while, he filled in "Berlin" in the nickname column.
"Berlin, does it have any special meaning?"
"No, just a random thought."
Sophie shrugged. It all depends on personal preference. There are all kinds of weird nicknames in the organization. Pedro's is already quite satisfactory.
After the formal registration was completed, the page turned to the login interface. He found that this was a simple forum, but it only had a search box, and it could also provide versions in various languages, including the content of the posts.
In other words, language barrier is not a big problem in this forum, and I don’t know how the translation program does this.
When Pedro finally registered and logged into the forum, Sophie looked at him and formally welcomed him.
At this moment, Pedro truly joined them.
"Pedro, congratulations, you have now mastered the keys to honor, status, wealth, etc. As long as you work hard, you will find that these things that others spend their whole lives pursuing are just the most important things for forum members. Basic benefits!
Welcome to join the Qinglong study group! "
Pedro looked at the name of the English version of the forum on the screen - "green dragon study group" and his mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything, let's just think of it as a name chosen to better hide it.
but. . .
"You just talked about the most basic benefits, right?"
At this time, Pedro could not imagine what more advanced benefits would be.
Sophie said helplessly: "You'll know just by looking at it."
After hearing this, Pedro clicked on a post and started browsing. After a while, he had already browsed five posts.
Pedro didn't know how to evaluate this forum, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "You are right, as long as you are not too lazy to save yourself, glory, status, and wealth are indeed not a problem."
