Four hundred and twenty-eight chapters, it is useless to help people who have no brains
Before James could speak, Valentin couldn't help but smile when he saw the visitor clearly. He snapped his fingers to the waiter, took a glass of champagne and handed it to the visitor, "Good evening, Princess Tilde, how did you feel about today's banquet?"
Sample?"
"Thank you." Although she didn't want to drink it, Tilde still took the champagne politely, "Thank you very much for inviting me to today's banquet, but it's a bit late. James, can I invite you to come with me? I have
I want to ask you something."
"This", looking at the Macallan 1956 that Paula was holding, James was very reluctant to part with it. He was completely unaware of the abnormality in his behavior and thoughts. In the past, even if he had a preference for Macallan whiskey, he could not move forward.
The level of the legs.
Valentine, who noticed James' abnormality, chuckled and said, "How about we go to the conference room to chat. It just so happens that I also have something to ask Your Highness Tilde about the Women's and Children's Foundation."
These words surprised Tilde. Valentine shrugged and said helplessly, "You know I just came to England and I don't know many things well, but I understand that if you want to enter the upper class society in England, you must first express your goodwill and let everyone know that I am here."
This is not just about making money, there is no less social responsibility.”
After saying this, Valentine stopped and looked at Tilde. Seeing that Tilde finally had a smile on her face, he continued, "I know that His Highness Tilde is one of the directors of the British Women's and Children's Foundation, and he happened to be presenting to the British Women's and Children's Foundation today.
You ask me about donations."
Soliciting donations is an important activity for the royal family. It can not only enhance their own fame and prestige, but also improve the public's perception of the royal family, so Tilde said happily, "Thank you for your kindness."
The three of them walked into the reception room under the leadership of Paula, the blade girl, and sat down politely. Valentine began to deliberately flatter Tilde and James, and promised to donate 1 million pounds. Tilde's attitude towards him obviously improved.
Many of them happily chatted about the foundation's purpose and operating principles, as well as matters needing attention when making donations.
Tilde drank a lot of champagne unknowingly because she talked too much. Every time she stopped talking, Valentine would find a topic to ask her questions. By 12 o'clock in the evening, Valentine saw Tilde drink a lot of champagne.
The champagne brought by Paula made James and James almost drunk at the first glance. She smiled and said that she would take them to see something interesting.
It was a good conversation and she was drunk, so Tilde didn't refuse, but because James drank too much wine with special effects, he basically obeyed Valentine now.
Paula led the four people to a room in the villa that contained many medical equipment.
"Come on, James, please lie down on the medical bed, Your Highness Tilde, and I will show you something good," Valentine ordered with a smile.
James was very obedient and lay down directly on the medical bed. The dizzy Tilde suddenly woke up when she saw the equipment on the medical bed, "What is this? Why did you bring James and me here? God, I want to say goodbye."
"Yes, Mr. Valentine."
"Huh?" Valentine looked at Paula next to him in surprise. His eyes indicated to Paula what was going on. Didn't he ask her to put something special in Tilde's wine?
Paula said with a sullen face, "I'll deal with her. You implant the control chip into James first."
"Well, take Tilde away and lock her in our secret base. She will still be useful."
"clear".
Paula pulled herself together and Tilde, who had regained consciousness but was weak physically, walked out of the medical room. But to Paula's surprise, three of Tilde's bodyguards were waiting in the corridor.
As soon as he saw his bodyguard, Tilde, he immediately shouted, "Save me."
Hearing Tilde calling for help, the three bodyguards looked at Paula, who was also a woman, in surprise. They were not sure whether Tilde was joking, but because of a few seconds of hesitation, the three bodyguards didn't bother Paula much.
All the effort was wiped out.
Then several people dressed as mercenaries came over and said to Paula, "Do you need us to kill James' bodyguards too?"
"No, you take Tilde through the back door and lock her into the base. Be careful not to disturb the guests outside," Paula shook her head.
"Okay, ma'am." The mercenary stepped forward and sealed Tilde's mouth with tape, picked her up and left. However, when the mercenaries turned around, it was easy to see that there were scars on the backs of their ears with implanted chips.
.
"I didn't expect that little girl Tilde was so stupid. She couldn't escape even if I helped her change the special wine," William, who was far away in his manor, said with a smile, "Did you take pictures of everything?"
"Yes, sir, the videos of how Valentin and Paula drugged him, how they used a chip to control James' first item, and how they kidnapped Ms. Tilde are all clear and complete."
"Very good, today's show is over, all that's left is how to make money, and then watch Valentine being forced into the abyss step by step."
William stood up, walked to the wine cabinet, poured a glass of whiskey, and took a sip in a comfortable mood, "Since the news spread yesterday, are there many people shorting the Valentine Group today?"
"There are many people who are bearish and want to enter the market, but there are not many contracts that can be reached. The market is waiting for the latest news. No one is stupid enough to bet that the share price of Valentine Group will rise immediately at this time."
"Haha, but what if tomorrow James agrees to supply special materials to Valentine, plus his free plan?" William squinted his eyes and said, "Everyone loves free things, but free things are often the most expensive. This is the truth.
Many people understand,
Once he occupies most of the market share in the communications industry, as long as the capital chain continues, a monopoly will be formed, and monopoly is the most profitable business."
"Inform Felix of the Swiss National Bank and ask him to buy Valentine's stock with a leverage of 3 times and 1 billion US dollars as soon as the market opens tomorrow. The contract period is 3 days. Let's test the waters first, lest the leverage is too big and the contract cannot be completed. Fourth
Short the Valentine Group depending on the situation."
"Sir, are you sure?"
"I'm sure, I won't let Valentine watch his stock skyrocket, produce hundreds of millions or even billions of chips, and completely mess up the world," William said with a smile.
"Understood, sir, the message has been sent."
"Well, keep a close eye on Phillips and the ten-man futures team, and tell me immediately if there is any abnormal behavior." William thought for a while and said, "How much money do I still have in the National Bank?"
"Understood, sir, I monitor every move of these people. Last month you transferred 2 billion U.S. dollars into the Bank of England, but only 1.4 billion U.S. dollars were left in this account. The National Bank still had 3.96 billion U.S. dollars left. Basti, Switzerland
There's £750m in the bank for bulletproof suits".
"Is there still so much cash?" William asked curiously, "Tell me the data."
"Okay, you shorted US stocks with a principal of US$400 million in March this year and made a huge profit of US$3.4 billion. In May, you made US$720 million by shorting the Belle Hotel in Las Vegas. In August, you made US$1.63 billion by shorting Debis Group.
In U.S. dollars, the cash earned in these ten months was 6.15 billion U.S. dollars and 750 million pounds.
In terms of expenses, the real estate in New York is worth 35 million US dollars, the Kensington Garden Street estate in London is 150 million US dollars, the equity investment in Moonstar is 150 million US dollars, the Victoria's Secret investment is 110 million US dollars, and the tax payment is 300 million US dollars plus some odds and ends about 4500.
