PS1: Please click here, collect and recommend, thank you all...
PS2: I have to go to work as soon as my cold gets better. I hope it won’t get worse...
"Well, Adele, you are right. Sometimes I am too forward-thinking and not decisive enough in my actions." After hearing his sister's evaluation of himself, George stood up and gently held the girl in front of him in his arms. Face smiled fondly and said, "So, if it weren't for your genius sister to help me from time to time, I'm afraid my career wouldn't be able to develop to the height it is now. By the way, you have 10% of the Trafalgar Company." If you own shares, the annual dividends can be regarded as the pocket money I give you."
wood! Brother, you are a complete piece of wood! Do you think I care about the shares and dividends you give me? ! After hearing these words, Adele, who was leaning in George's arms, first pouted dissatisfiedly, and then snorted softly, which was a response to George's words. However, from George's perspective, he couldn't see the girl's actions at all.
"Okay, I won't disturb your work here~" Although she was very nostalgic for this familiar atmosphere in her heart, Adele still broke away from George's arms, with a smile on her face that belonged to The youth and vitality of this talented girl still have an imperceptible blush, "Then, I will contact Yili now and try to create a chance for you two to meet before Christmas Eve. If you two can still be together now, If we get along as well as before, then brother, you can bring Ellie to our house as a guest this Christmas... By the way, brother, please remember to tell John later and ask him to prepare 100 million US dollars for me. , I need this money in some places."
Some people may ask, why do they still need to communicate through Adele, an intermediary, when George and Elizabeth have known each other since childhood? The reason is simple, because there has been no contact between George and Elizabeth for many years, and it will inevitably be a little awkward to meet each other directly. And in this way, George and Elizabeth will have a good cover if they want to date in the future, so that Stanley's daughter will not get in the way.
"Of course you want 100 million U.S. dollars, no problem." George naturally agreed to Adele's request, "But, can I ask, Adele, what exactly are you going to do with the money?"
"Ah, that's right." Adele readily answered George's question, "When I was studying in the United States, I met a Harvard student named Mark Zuckerberg and thought some of his ideas were very interesting. I plan to invest in helping him realize his dream of building a social networking site. I have reached a written agreement with him. As long as I pay him US$30 million in start-up capital before the New Year, I can own 40% of the shares of this company called FACEBOOK. ! As for the remaining money, I plan to invest in oil futures."
My sister is amazing, you can even find this guy Zuckerberg, and even signed a cooperation agreement with you that is destined to lose money to death... After hearing Adele's explanation, George couldn't help but start in his heart I wonder who the protagonist is. Why is this sister of mine always more talented and luckier than myself, a time traveler?
You know, back then, George also wanted to find the two founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, in advance, and completely bring this famous search engine company into his own hands, but it was not until the second half of 1998 that After Google was officially established, he found these two big names, injected capital into them in the name of venture capital, and obtained 20% of Google's shares.
Let’s look at Adele. Not only did she get her undergraduate and master’s degrees from Columbia University in just four years, she also discovered Zuckerberg while she was still in school and became an investor in FACEBOOK. And the second largest shareholder... With such a sharp contrast, George really felt that his achievements were nothing to show off.
Of course, in Adele's eyes, things are completely different. In her opinion, if her elder brother had not set an example for her, pointed out the direction of her development, and laid a solid family background, then she would not have been able to get such a large space to play casually. Invest tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.
"Well, investing in the Internet and oil futures are both good ideas." George, who knew the future development trend, naturally strongly supported Adele's idea and gave her some suggestions based on the memories of her previous life. "You don't need to do too much on FACEBOOK." Step in. As an investor, you only need to supervise the flow of funds. By the way, you can help when necessary, such as when you need promotion and publicity. Just let Zuckerberg, a professional, handle the professional matters. In the case of oil futures , Adele, you can take over my investment and handle it together."
George clearly remembered that the price of oil futures in his previous life had been rising before the 2008 Olympics. As long as he grasped this general trend, he would basically make a steady profit without losing money. Therefore, he also suggested this to Adele, and Adele, who had great trust in George, naturally believed deeply and promised to invest in oil futures according to George's advice.
"Then, I'll take my leave first~" Before leaving the room, Adele did not forget to remind George again, "Brother, you have to remember that you must be more enthusiastic towards Ellie when the time comes, and it is best to be able to treat her Take it down in one fell swoop and take her home for Christmas. Otherwise, someone in the family will definitely have another idea for you."
"I know, your brother and I have never been so unreliable in our work." Covering his forehead with one hand, George said speechlessly. Obviously, he felt a little helpless about Adele's uneasy attitude, but he had no way to refute it - who said that George was indeed not a gentleman when it came to treating Elizabeth?
George knew in his heart that, as Adele said before leaving, his current situation within the family was very delicate. As the investment business of Trafalgar Company grows bigger and bigger, his personal assets will increase, and more and more people will be targeting him. Under such circumstances, there are very few girls like Elizabeth who approach him not out of personal or family interests, but purely out of admiration. Therefore, Adele, who has always been strict in this regard, listed Elizabeth as the best candidate to become her sister-in-law.
So, after leaving the meeting with Elizabeth Hood to Adele and giving her a position as vice president of the Trafalgar Company to help John handle company affairs, George returned to Put your energy into the team’s pre-match preparations.
After all, unlike other leagues, the Premier League does not have a winter break. Therefore, even though Christmas, which Westerners attach great importance to, is approaching, George still has to work hard and cannot enjoy the rare Christmas vacation with his family.
Moreover, Tottenham have already lost two games in the league. Although he is still eight points ahead of fifth-ranked Newcastle, George does not dare to pin his hopes on his opponent not winning. What's more, Tottenham's next opponent is Portsmouth, where Sheringham plays. Therefore, even if it is to prove that he made the right decision to drive away Sheringham, George must try his best to win in this game!
However, before that, George still needs to deal with one major life event, which is the meeting with Elizabeth Hood that was planned and arranged by Adele herself!
It has to be said that Adele acted very efficiently. Only two days had passed since her conversation with George, that is, one day before Christmas Eve, she successfully made an appointment with Elizabeth and finalized the appointment. The entire process of the meeting and details!
Therefore, after the team training on the 23rd, George uncharacteristically did not stay at the training base to work overtime or coach those players who needed special training on the training ground. Instead, after dressing up, he drove away directly. After arriving at the training base, he went to the mansion he had just bought in the Kensington-Chelsea district - where Elizabeth and Adele were waiting for his arrival.
Since he has made a promise to Adele, George must abide by it seriously. What's more, in George's heart, he still can't forget a certain girl who was behind him, who was gentle, virtuous, but also outstandingly intelligent.
"Hey, Cristiano, you and the boss usually have the best relationship. Come and tell us, what on earth did the boss want to do when he left in such a hurry?" Seeing that George was uncharacteristically leaving early. At the training base, the curiosity of Tottenham players couldn't help but be piqued. Ledley King even grabbed Ronaldo, who was about to practice shooting, and asked the latter directly.
"Captain, how could I possibly know what is going on?" Looking at the crowd of gossips around him, Ronaldo, who knew nothing about it, naturally felt a lot of pressure, "Although the relationship between me and the boss is indeed very good. , I usually receive the care of the boss. But you also know that his affairs are definitely not something I can interfere with. "
"Tell me, is the boss going behind our backs...hehehehe." At this time, Darren Anderton and Carrick also joined the discussion, and the topic was distorted as soon as they started.
"Stop talking nonsense, boss, how could he go to a place like a nightclub." As a die-hard supporter of George, Ronaldo naturally refuted this statement without hesitation, "As a boss, how can he go to a place like that? Go on, aren’t you deliberately providing news material for those paparazzi?!”
"That's true." Phil Neville rubbed his chin and gave his opinion, "How about we follow the leader and see where he is going. I have a feeling that if If our actions go smoothly, we will definitely make a big discovery!"
"You can do it, come on? I don't want to be discovered by the boss, and then be tortured to death by the boss during training tomorrow..."
While the players were speculating about George's movements tonight, George had also arrived at a mansion in a wealthy area of London. Under the leadership of Adele, he met this man from the Hood family who had not seen him for several years. blonde girl.
