"Boom", the entire hall immediately turned into a vegetable market. Curses, exclamations, and gasps were heard repeatedly. Even Ambrosio, who was sitting in the guest seat, covered his mouth and stared at William with wide eyes.
Although I had heard that William's wealth exceeded 20 billion, it was shocking that the figure of 20 billion made more money than 110 million US dollars in two days. When I looked at William, I just wanted to swallow him in one gulp.
The chairman of L Brand, who was sitting next to William, looked at William in horror. Although William said he was not interested in L Brand, he also said that it was because L Brand Company was not his decision.
If William suddenly said that he was guaranteed to earn US$1 billion a year with the L brand, he, the chairman, would immediately be ousted by other shareholders.
This is not alarmist, but he suddenly had this idea. If he can earn one billion US dollars a year, the market value of L Brand Company will immediately soar to over 10 billion US dollars, and his wealth will also increase five times. As long as the profits are stable
Within two or three years, it is not impossible for the market value to soar to 15 billion or 20 billion.
"I brought the devil into my company," the old man muttered in a low voice.
William, who had good hearing, turned to the old man with a smile, patted the microphone, and after the reporters slowly quieted down, he lied with his eyes open: "Although the company is too small for me to be interested, I think
The overall picture of this company is still very good. If you trust my judgment, interested people can try to buy it."
"No problem" and "I'll buy it after it's over." William's performance in the stock market made many reporters excited.
"Thank you, thank you for your trust, I promise you will not regret this decision in a few years."
William looked at the excited reporters with a smile, and he understood the reason for saying this. If you want to get something, you have to pay first. Saying good things without spending money can not only gain the favor of other shareholders of L Brand, but also serve as a good foundation for future L Brand investments.
Prepare.
"Okay, be quiet, guys." William patted the microphone and continued, "If you are in a hurry, you can leave first."
Sure enough, the reporters were all experienced and would not take action just because of William's words. After waiting for half a minute with a smile, William jokingly said, "There have been a lot of rumors about my luxurious life in the past two days."
"Hahaha", everyone laughed knowingly. The curses on Ambrosio and the accusations against William's extravagant consumption in the past two days were all caused by reporters like them. They were all secretly happy. We are having a hard time with you William.
Even if Devon Hill is a rich man, he won't have an easy time.
He covered his forehead and looked at the reporters speechlessly, "Originally, I wanted to give these shares as a gift to a certain girl I love, but now seeing your reaction, I thought about it and let it go."
"That's right, if you really do that, not only will you be scolded to death, Miss Ambrosio will also be criticized by everyone," someone suddenly said loudly.
"Haha, that's right" the people around agreed,
Only Ambrosio gave William a big eye roll. She knew very well that William would give him shares to give him shares. He said this just to completely dispel her unreasonable thoughts and to please the ordinary people who had opinions about him.
people.
He looked at the self-aware Ambrosio with satisfaction. The real reason why he did not give away the shares was that William did not think that his relationship with Ambrosio was good enough for him to willingly give away such a large amount of wealth.
Ambrosio is not the mother of his child now, so no matter how much he likes her, their relationship is just that of boyfriend and girlfriend.
No one, not even my wife, would directly give away shares. Gifting some jewelry and real estate may be acceptable, but giving away shares is really a bit much.
If he really gives it away, as the value of these shares rises higher and higher in the future, people will not only not praise him, but will laugh at him. William Devon Hill is an idiot who gave away hundreds of millions to a woman who is not his wife and the mother of his children.
With shares worth more than one billion US dollars, this is definitely a joke that will be laughed at by the world for more than ten or decades.
"Secondly, the gift tax in the United States is too high. It is only a little lower than the inheritance tax. To be honest, I really can't bear to give tens of millions of dollars to relevant departments in the United States. With this money, I might as well buy it for my girlfriend."
A few pieces of clothing and jewelry will be given directly to those in need."
"Oh, that's right, William, it's better to give it to those vampires in the United States as a charity." As soon as he finished speaking, the place burst into laughter like a vegetable market, and the crowd heard dissatisfaction with the U.S. tax from time to time.
"Bang bang bang", after laughing for a long time, William patted the microphone and said with a smile, "Yes, with that money I might as well do charity."
"God," someone exclaimed. The business was about to begin. Everyone knew what William was going to say next, so the venue became quiet without prompting.
"The second thing I want to announce is about the establishment of the Devon Hill Family Foundation." After a pause, William continued after the muttering in the venue died down: "You know that I was born in a single-parent family, so the charitable objects of this foundation are
There is only one, those single-parent families caused by various reasons."
"Can you interrupt me? Devon Hill student." A middle-aged reporter with a stubble on his face stood up excitedly, raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I know it's rude to interrupt you now, but I
I am a single father raising three children, so I very much hope to know that your fund’s charity targets do not include male families like me who are single and raising children.”
"Well." This question surprised William. He scratched his head and said apologetically, "To be honest, I really didn't think about supporting male single fathers at first, because in my subconscious mind, this kind of behavior is not helpful, but will make it worse."
They think it's humiliating, can you understand what I'm saying?"
"No, men and women are equal, and are there gender differences in raising children? Why can't your foundation help male single-parent families like mine?"
"Okay." After a moment of groaning in his mind, William said, "Can I ask how old your child is?"
"Of course, my wife died of illness three years ago. When she died, the youngest child was only 2 years old, the oldest was 7 years old, and the other was 5 years old."
While the middle-aged man was talking, William took out his cell phone and pressed a few times on the screen, instructing Sunday to investigate the information of the middle-aged man and his children. "Okay, that's it." William interrupted the middle-aged man and shook his cell phone.
After a few clicks, "Do you mind if I post the current situation of your children on the curtain behind me?"
The middle-aged man shook his head in confusion.
"Okay, let's see if what you said is true. Let's get started on Sunday."
"Okay, sir", a deep and deep voice sounded in the conference hall.
Under the surprised eyes of everyone present, the projector at the venue automatically turned on, and a photo appeared on the curtain.
