The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2013
Elaine was cooking on the first floor. When she heard Lady Wilson cursing out loud early in the morning, she hurried out with her crutches to watch the excitement.At this time, Charlie and Claire also happened to be walking down the stairs. They happened to see Elaine who was coming out with her crutch.Elaine hurriedly asked excitedly, “Oh! Did both of you hear that d*mned old lady cursing out loud?”Charlie and Claire nodded. After that, Claire replied embarrassedly, “I wonder what’s wrong with Grandma? Why did she start cursing out loud on the balcony on the second floor early in the morning?”When Elaine heard this, she said excitedly, “Claire, hurry up! Help me up the stairs to go have a look!”Claire replied helplessly, “Mom, what is there to look at…”Elaine put her right arm on the crutch as she patted her left leg and blurted out, “What else would be better to look at compared to this? Hurry up and help me up quickly! Otherwise, if I’m late, I won’t be able to watch the

The several police officers immediately became very energetic and vigilant when they heard this!After all, anyone who could live in a villa at Thompson First would certainly be very strong financially. Therefore, the old lady’s so-called ‘hard-earned money’ would certainly be an astronomical figure.Thinking about it, they could afford to live in a villa that was worth more than one hundred million dollars at will, so what would three to five million dollars be worth to them anyway? It was estimated that they would only frown slightly even if they lost thirty to fifty million dollars!However, since the old lady was acting this way and feeling so depressed, then it seemed as though this amount would definitely be worth more than thirty to fifty million dollars!Perhaps this might even be an extremely large theft case!Therefore, the several police officers hurried into the house before they asked Wendy directly, “When did the theft happen? How much money was stolen?”Wendy felt

As she was faced with the police officer’s confirmation, Lady Wilson nodded as she gritted her teeth and said, “That’s right. It’s two hundred dollars!”The police officer thought that there was a problem with his ears.“An old lady who is living in the most luxurious villa at Thompson First would actually call the police and file a police report for two hundred dollars? That cannot be right…”As he thought about this, he secretly thought, Could it be that all rich people talk like this and simply refer to two million dollars as two hundred? During my last class reunion, the rich heir in my class was also the same when he talked about his luxury car. It was obviously a Rolls-Royce that had cost more than five million dollars. However, when anyone asked him about the price, he would simply say that it was a little more than five hundred. Is this a common problem that the wealthy people have?As he thought about this, the police officer could not help but feel a little puzzled. It st

After that, the police officer said again, “Madam, if your daughter-in-law only stole two hundred dollars from you, we really cannot file a case on this matter. You can only blame her for stealing too little. If she secretly stole your television to sell it off, based on the price of the television at the time the television was purchased, that would be sufficient for us to file a theft case against her. However, she did not steal your television at all!”The police officer was simply using a television as an analogy. However, at this time, Lady Wilson suddenly thought of the television set in Donald’s villa that she had sold together with Harold and Christopher. She was shocked, and she suddenly asked nervously, “Officer, if someone stole a television that is worth one hundred thousand dollars, what kind of sentence would that person receive?”The police officer replied seriously, “If the television was really worth one hundred thousand dollars, that would already be an extremely bi

At this time, when Elaine, who was standing on the balcony on the third floor, saw Lady Wilson asking Wendy to send the group of police officers off, she grinned as she said, “Oh! Old lady, weren’t you planning to call the police to arrest your eldest daughter-in-law? Why? Has your heart gone soft again? It seems as though you really seem to have a soft spot for your eldest daughter-in-law!”Lady Wilson was already feeling very uncomfortable at this time. Therefore, when she heard Elaine chattering on the other side, she instantly got angry and frustrated, and she started cursing, “Elaine, my family’s affairs have nothing to do with you. Stop chirping all day and being so annoying here.”“Oh! You think that I am annoying?” Elaine sneered as she said, “Don’t live next door to our house if you think that I am annoying!”As she spoke, Elaine sneered as she said, “Yesterday, I heard Jacob saying that you got a job at the supermarket now? That’s not bad, old lady. You have not done anyth

Elaine smiled as she said, “Silly girl! I was just lying to her. Where could I possibly buy any Oskian breakfast food during the New Year? Besides, I don’t even know how to cook those dishes at all. I was just trying to make that bad old woman angry!”Elaine continued speaking, “You might not know it, but your grandmother really enjoys eating Oskian breakfast food. She would always go to the teahouse for the entire morning just to enjoy some good Oskian breakfast food. Every time she goes there, she would always eat an extremely hearty meal like a queen! She would order a whole table full of food each time. Now that she has already fallen into poverty, why wouldn’t I take advantage of this situation to stimulate her and criticize her, then?”Claire sighed helplessly as she said, “Mom, don’t you think that it is about time for you to let go of the grudge between you and grandma now? She is already so old. So, you should not continue to argue with her like that anymore.”Elaine replie

Charlie never expected Elaine to be able to judge Loreen so accurately.In truth, Charlie had already guessed her true motive when Loreen initially arrived at the Emgrand Group.It had to be because the Thomas family had heard the news that the Wade family had arranged for a descendant to be in Aurous Hill, and they had even bought the Emgrand Group as a gift for that descendant. Therefore, the Thomas family must have felt that this was the perfect opportunity for them to get ahead of everyone else. This was the reason why they arranged for Loreen to work in the Emgrand Group.Charlie had initially planned to prevent Loreen from being able to contact him during her time in the Emgrand Group. If that was the case, if she failed to encounter him even after a long time, Charlie believed that she would certainly leave Aurous Hill soon.However, who would have expected Loreen to fall in love with Charlie instead?Therefore, from the moment Loreen had confessed her love to Charlie, he a

Claire laughed as she said, “Mom, the more you talk about it, the more incredulous your story sounds! You are even talking about digging tunnels now! Do you really think that you are Captain Mojin?”When Elaine saw that Claire did not seem to believe in anything that she was saying at all, she could not help but blurt out anxiously, “Seriously, Claire! Why don’t you believe anything I say? Over the years, many tombs have opened up near my grandmother’s house. A particularly famous tomb, the Halchester Tomb, was unearthed not too far away from my grandmother’s house. Have you heard of the Halchester Tomb before?”Claire nodded before she said, “I heard that it seems to be a very important archaeological discovery in history. What is wrong with this tomb?”“What is wrong with this tomb?!” Elaine hummed as she said, “Let me tell you, the reason why this tomb was eventually discovered by the cultural relics department, was because when the tomb robbers were trying to dig a tunnel, they

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6583
Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove

Charlie smiled. "Who, me? You'd laugh at me, but it was only after Steven found me that I learned to drive. I never bought my own car either and only had the two supercars gifted to me, and I only drove those a handful of times at best. Even now, I'm driving the BMW 5-series I bought for my father-in-law."Then, he remembered Marianne Long and said, "I did drive a friend's Tesla back to Hong Kong, but it was only for a short time, and I didn't manage to look into their so-called assisted driving system."Yolden thought about it and smiled, "But y'know… how would I describe the car, specifically? Have you heard of Mario Balotelli, the soccer player?"Every man present aside from Keith nodded—Mario had been a philosopher on the soccer field, and even those who didn't watch soccer were familiar with his name.Nodding, Yolden continued, "The way I see it, Mario has been a player with top-class hardware but third-rate software. Give him Messi or Ronaldinho's intelligence, and he'd be a

Kaeden then asked, "Well, professor, how do you suppose we overtake the competition at turning points? Or indeed, what qualifies as succeeding in that respect?"Yolden thought about it, formulating his words before explaining, "My personal understanding of the matter isn't simply to aim for turning points. Instead, it's things like staying on the inner lane of the race track and reaching the finish line faster by going where no other race car had gone before—or indeed where people never thought to go before."That's the case for new energy cars. Our fossil fuel energies have constantly lost to other countries and would always come up short. But with new energy cars, we can change the rules altogether."We can't catch up to their engine tech? Then we won't—there's no way they are masters in electric-powered engines, are they? They've spent decades on internal combustion engines and haven't the first clue about electric-powered engines."So, while everyone hasn't turned all their foc

The Ackers were really interested in Yolden's perspective.For their family, investing in the new energy automotive industry wasn't meant to make money—they simply intended to add to Oskia's strength as a manufacturer.But with Yolden's input, they had new things to look forward to.If they really could propel their business to giants like Tesla, opportunities and profits would go without saying—there was also no question that it supported and improved Oskia's local car industry and manufacturing sector.Giants in the manufacturing sector were different from online giants, as the latter often enforced a stranglehold monopoly. Before they had the monopoly, they would be offering perks and subsidies to the market, and when they gained sufficient customers and consumer faith, they would start choking the market for profits.To put it in perspective, a five-mile Uber ride would cost five bucks before, and the driver would be paid ten for it. But after Uber got the monopoly, the rider
