At this time, Yolden sighed as he said emotionally, “It is simply impossible for me to be able to finish talking about all of your mother’s successful investment and cases back then. If you have the opportunity to head to Silicon Valley one day, and if you look for any of the bosses of any top global group and tell him that your mother’s name is Ashley Layna Acker, they will certainly use their highest standard of etiquette to receive you and treat you as their most distinguished guest…”Charlie sighed as he said, “If I had not met you, I would have never have known all these things about my mother…”Yolden looked at Charlie before he smiled slightly and said, “Your mother’s vision and long-term strategy and planning are far beyond any of our reach.”“Truthfully, back then, many of us did not even understand your mother’s investment strategies or operations. This was because many of the companies that she invested in did not seem like it would have any developmental prospects to us.
Yolden assumed that Charlie only had Emgrand Group and the ten billion dollars worth of cash in his hands. So, Charlie would only have a little over one hundred billion dollars if he were to add these two things together. The possibility of Charlie being able to compete against the Wade family or the Schulz family would basically be close to zero.Charlie smiled slightly at this time as he said, “Professor Hart, to tell you the truth, I still have more than tens of billions of dollars of funds in my hands. Moreover, I also own a pharmaceutical company that is running at a good momentum and is currently earning me an annual profit of ten billion dollars. In fact, the company’s profit might even exceed one hundred billion dollars next year. Therefore, I will certainly have the funds to continue any of my other projects.”Yolden asked in surprise, “You own a pharmaceutical company that is making an annual profit of more than ten billion dollars?! What is the name of your pharmaceutica
“Your daughter?!”Charlie was a little surprised.At this time, Yolden continued, “My daughter is about the same age as you are. She just graduated from Stanford University with a doctorate last year, and she has been working for Goldman Sachs Capital Partners on Wall Street. She just resigned some time ago. I asked her to return to Oskia to further develop her career, but my daughter has some conflicts with me, and she is very rebellious. She refuses to listen to anything I say at all.”Charlie could not help but ask, “Professor Hart, in that case, would your daughter agree to it if I were to ask her to work together with me, then?”Yolden hurriedly replied, “I have been trying to persuade her all this while. The current economic and development momentum in Oskia is so good now, and it is actually much stronger compared to that of Europe and the United States. In terms of development potential, it would certainly be much better for her to develop her career in Oskia rather than ab
When Charlie saw the pained expression on his face, Charlie started comforting him as he said, “Professor Hart, to be honest, you don’t have to be too angry and frustrated. It is actually very normal for young people to be rebellious. Moreover, as far as I know, many geniuses in their own field will naturally be a little more rebellious. Perhaps the more rebellious a child is, the more powerful and independent their thinking would be. That way, they would be able to do many earth-shattering and amazing things, then!”Yolden held onto his chest as he said angrily, “You simply do not know how rebellious that girl is! I could simply endure it and put up with it if she was just going to Syria. After all, even though that place is very chaotic and messy, it is mostly just civil strife. They are relatively friendly toward Oskians. But this girl… she… she…”After repeating the word ‘she’ a couple of times, Yolden was suddenly at a loss for words again.His face was flushed red, he became a
Charlie knew that he did not lack money, but he was lacking in talents now.A business would not be successful just because of a person’s words and imagination.This was especially so when it came to managing a company. He would have to have a good talent who would be capable enough to make the company stronger and better.Charlie only had two businesses in his hands now.The first one was Emgrand Group, and the other was Apothecary Pharmaceutical.He had Doris to manage and be in charge of Emgrand Group, and he had Liam to help him manage Apothecary Pharmaceutical.However, Charlie would be stuck when it came to talents if he were to add on any other new businesses in addition to these two business sectors.Although Albert was very loyal and reliable, no matter what it was, he was not an educated person. He could follow and execute orders, but he lacked the ability to use his head to make real decisions to do big things.As for the others, whether it was Graham, Zeke, Travis,
Yolden laughed out loud as he said, “Hahaha! I don’t think that you will need to go through so much trouble. I believe in your abilities. If you praise her continuously, I believe that she will certainly be very tempted.”With that being said, Yolden was a little worried as he said, “Actually, my main concern is that she has not had enough fun yet. In that case, if she truly intends to continue staying in Syria, which is in great turmoil and chaos because of the ongoing war for another year or so, no one would be able to persuade her or change her mind anymore! Sigh! You do not know that girl at all. She is so stubborn, and no one can ever dissuade her as long as she has set her mind to do something!”Charlie nodded before he said seriously, “I will try my best to persuade her to come back soon.”“Okay.” Yolden hurriedly said, “Why don’t you add her as a friend on WhatsApp now so that you can start talking to her first?”Charlie smiled as he replied, “Uncle Hart, don’t forget that
Charlie did not expect that Autumn would turn him down as soon as he contacted her. However, he naturally would not give up so easily. So, he immediately replied: “I thought that you were back in the United States, Miss Hart. I did not expect that you would actually be in Syria instead. I wonder, why did you go all the way to Syria?”Autumn replied: “I came here with some of my university classmates to film a documentary about the war. We are preparing to use this documentary as an opportunity to launch an anti-war charity fund.”Charlie hurriedly replied: “Miss Hart, if you are interested to set up an anti-war charity fund, I can personally contribute and donate a sum of money to you too. If you would be willing to collaborate with me for the long-term, I am also prepared to transfer thirty million US dollars to your charity fund in a one-off transaction.”As he spoke, Charlie continued: “To be honest, you are a talent who majored in finance. So, why would you go all the way to Syr
Charlie smiled as he said: “Based on what I know, it seems as though the government and the opposition forces have already been in a deadlock war for a very long time. Moreover, their government is also short of money, food, weapons, and ammunition. They would also have inadequate training throughout the year, and they would certainly have very low combat effectiveness. Besides that, the government only sent a few soldiers over there to protect and ensure your team’s safety. In my opinion, that is basically useless. All of you are just unarmed and talented young people. So, if an accident were to happen, all of you would not even have the chance to escape at all.”Autumn replied a little hesitantly: “Well… I don’t think that it is that serious…”Charlie smiled as he said: “That is just your own assumption. If something were to truly happen, your assumption or opinion would not really matter at all.”As he spoke, Charlie suddenly remembered something, and he said: “I heard that merce
