“Acquire a company?”Hugo was taken aback by Charlie’s words and spoke up, “Mr. Wade, it would cost at least one billion US dollars if you want to acquire a communication company with a sufficient foundation. Wouldn’t the investment be too high? I’m afraid that it’d be difficult to achieve profitability...”Charlie shook his head and said, “Profit is not the most important thing. How we can solve our immediate needs is the most important thing.”With that said, Charlie said again, “Our biggest pain at present is that we are short of time. Not to mention a year or a month, but even if it is a day or an hour, we have to try our best to fight for it. Time is far more important than money.”Charlie paused for a moment and continued, “If you want to develop at a speed beyond ordinary people, it’s necessary to change the mode of thinking that only solves the immediate needs. It is basically difficult to achieve great things if you’re stuck on how to solve the problem of recruiting people

Hugo hurriedly said, “It’s an old communication company in the United States.”Charlie asked again, “What is the current market value of the company?”Hugo thought for a moment and said, “The company was very prosperous a few years ago, and its market value exceeded ten billion dollars when it was at its peak. However, as the bubble continued to burst and its performance continued to decline, the market value should only be more than a billion US dollars when I was fired.”Charlie nodded and asked him, “How is the foundation of this company?”Hugo said, “The technical foundation of its hardware and software technology is very good, but the reason why it went downhill over the years was mainly because the market direction has not been found correctly. The person in charge made the wrong judgment in the direction of the development of communications in the market and gradually killed his own to-C side of the business. He turned to rely on his old capital to provide hardware equipment

A few hours later, Charlie and Hugo returned to the United States together. The plane landed in Providence first, and after Charlie had gotten off the plane, it took off again immediately, carrying Hugo, Albert, and Isaac to Silicon Valley.The reason why Albert and Isaac were accompanying Hugo was mainly to protect Hugo’s personal safety. After all, the purpose of his visit was to discuss a billion-dollar business deal. Moreover, it was not known whether Martha had any other unknown accomplices in the United States. Charlie felt relatively relieved with Albert and Isaac accompanying Hugo. Charlie got off the plane alone and then drove back to the hotel where he was staying with Claire.Over the next few days, he asked Kathleen to help deliver a batch of medicinal materials to him. He then refined a new batch of Healing Pills while Claire was attending classes during the day.After that, he mixed one Cultivating Pill and two Rejuvenating Pills into it and added in a large number

“Okay.” Charlie nodded slightly and asked again, “Is the speedboat prepared for me ready?”“Yes, it’s ready.” Porter said, “A speedboat equipped with six Mercury outboard engines with a maximum speed of one hundred and twenty kilometers per hour has been prepared according to your request.”Charlie said immediately, “Take me there now!”Porter then drove Charlie to a deserted coastline.At this time, a large modified pickup truck was parked on the beach. The rear of the pickup truck was facing the direction of the sea, and a six to seven-meter-long object wrapped in black tarpaulin was attached to its back. Porter lifted the tarpaulin, and a streamlined speedboat came into view. Porter asked Charlie immediately, “Mr. Wade, do you want me to go with you?”Charlie waved his hand. “I can go by myself. You can take the helicopter to board the ship to meet the others later and wait for my instructions on the ship.”Porter nodded, took a backpack out from the cabin, and said to Cha

At this moment, this cargo ship with less than 10,000 tons was sailing at full speed on the sea.The noise and ups and downs of the ship sailing made them completely unaware that a black shadow was rushing toward them quickly above the sea on their left side.This black shadow was Charlie.The Reiki beneath his feet made it feel as if he was stepping on two invisible air cushions, and the soles of his feet were always about ten centimeters away from the surface of the water. Every time Charlie stepped on the waves, there would be a splash of water under his feet. It would not only be very eye-catching if this had happened during the day, but others might also be extremely shocked when they saw this.However, the surface of the sea was pitch black at this moment. Charlie was also dressed in black, so he was completely like a ghost. Even his enemies with a keen sense of smell did not notice anything unusual.As the distance of the sea got closer, Charlie could even see a few sentr

Charlie skipped these few empty rooms. By the time he came to the door of the innermost room, the two people inside were already done. At this time, he could hear rustling inside as the two people got dressed. A man then smiled and said, “Wait for me, I will go to the cockpit to take a look.”The other person did not speak, but there was the sound of the two people kissing. There was then the sound of footsteps approaching the door from far to near. Charlie held the Soul Blade in the palm of his right hand and waited. The moment the door opened inward, he saw a middle-aged man coming out the door. Charlie rushed in at an extremely fast speed before the other party could react, strangled the opponent’s neck with his left hand, then closed the door with his foot.The opponent’s strength was already at the Great Perfection Realm of the Illuminating Realm. When he saw Charlie’s instant attack to kill, he subconsciously wanted to attack with both hands.However, before he could react

Charlie laughed and said, “A Dark Realm expert is not much of an expert in my eyes.”As he spoke, Charlie used his Reiki to search the old man’s elixir field and then frowned as he said, “You’re a Dark Realm expert, but there’s still poison in your body.” The old man was dumbfounded and asked him, “How... How could you tell?!”Charlie frowned tighter and said coldly, “Not only can I see that you have severe poison in your body, but I can also tell that the severe poison in your body is not the same as those in the bodies of the dead soldiers and members of the Armed Calvary Guards. It seems that the severe poison in your body is a bit more virulent.”After saying that, Charlie stared at him and said sternly, “I’ll give you a chance to tell me the truth. I will use my own method if you can’t grasp that.”The old man calmed down slightly for a few moments, looked at Charlie, and asked, “If I’m not mistaken, you should be the one who killed all our Armed Calvary Guards in Bergen, ri

After putting the old man under his psychological hints, Charlie went straight to the point and asked, “What is your name and status in the organization?”The old man replied with a humble demeanor, “My name is Lucian Daubray, and I serve as a special envoy in the Right Military Governor Office.”“Right Military Governor Office?” Charlie frowned and asked him, “What kind of institution is this Right Military Governor Office?”Lucian replied respectfully, “The British Lord followed the system from ancient times and established five military capitals, namely, the Central Military Governor Office, the Left Military Governor Office, the Right Military Governor Office, the Front Military Governor Office, and the Rear Military Governor Office which have been developed over centuries. Each of the current governor’s offices is responsible for organizing specific affairs in a continent. According to tradition, Asia is central, Europe is at the right, the United States is at the left, Oceania

Helena waved her hand dismissively. "You don't have to. As you mentioned, procuring the hardware for the AI models comes with its own costs. I'd rather take a loss myself than let you suffer. After all, you're already of such an age, and having had a stroke once before. If you end up losing something and it affects your mood, leading to a relapse, wouldn't that make me the bad guy?" "No, no, no!" Harrison, ignoring the subtle mockery, hurried over to Helena with great urgency and reassured, almost desperately, "Buying the hardware for Your Majesty is something we should do. Please accept it." As he said it, he lamented with regret, "Your Highness, I'm old, and my mindset is molded in the conservative mode because of decades of experience, and bargaining is one of them. Nevertheless, please rest assured that we will never again bargain when doing business with you." After experiencing the powerful effect of the Healing Pill, Harrison keenly realized that the pill must be a life-sa

Harrison immediately caught the implication in her words and, with a smile, said, "Your Majesty, you are truly a brilliant negotiator. I've never seen someone so young yet able to control the pace of negotiations so skillfully! With you at the helm, the Nordic royal family is sure to soar to new heights!" Helena smiled and said, "You think too highly of me. I can control the rhythm well because I have a good mentor." "I wonder who your mentor is?" Harrison asked curiously. "I would like to meet him if there is a chance." Helena said lightly, "My mentor prefers to act with a low profile and isn't fond of the vanity that comes with fame, but I believe that you will have the opportunity to meet him in the future." "That would be wonderful!" Harrison replied with a beam. Helena then said, "It's getting late. I'll take my leave now." Harrison nodded. As he saw Helena turn to leave, he remembered something and hurriedly called after her, "Hold on, Your Majesty!" "Yes, Mr. Roths

Seeing Harrison with his head down in deep thought, Helena knew he definitely wouldn't follow the original plan to pass the position of family head to Julien. Sure enough, Harrison lifted his head with a chuckle and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to New York and attend my family meeting to establish the heir. Your presence truly brings us great honor!" Feigning a surprised expression, Helena asked, "Aren't we going to announce Julien's succession today? Why have you changed your mind?" Harrison waved her off and, with a slightly embarrassed smile, said, "Plans can't keep up with changes, and changes always outpace plans. Until this morning, I never imagined I could regain my health. Don't you think so?" Helena smiled slightly. "Your recovery is partly due to Julien's devotion, which seems to have touched God himself." Despite what she said, she couldn't help mumbling under her breath, "Harrison really did change his mind,

The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em

Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.

Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b

Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi

Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ

Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex
