Chapter 240
It may be that William reminded in advance to prepare the legal team and the reserve fund of 10 million US dollars or even 100 million US dollars to fight a lawsuit. The media reports on him on TV, newspapers and other media that day were generally true, but even if the facts were not distorted. , but the video recorded on the spot has already made people all over the world watching the news in shock.
The big-mouthed guests invited by the TV station were also honest, and they were just discussing why William suddenly established a family foundation, and why the beneficiary of the foundation was Lena, he, and his children. Mother.
And why did William suddenly reveal his net worth at this time? In the two days he broke the news at the press conference, William made more than 1.1 billion US dollars. Although I don’t know how much, but even if it is calculated as 1.1 billion US dollars in two days , William Devon Hill is now worth more than 13 billion,
But this is only calculated according to the minimum estimate. Many guests believe that William's net worth has exceeded 20 billion US dollars. If that is the case, then William will immediately become the ninth richest person in the world, even if it is only 13 billion US dollars. In US dollars, it can also be ranked 21.
All kinds of doubts make people puzzled, and at the same time, the public is discussing whether Lena Devonhill is really the richest woman in England.
Judging from the several companies announced by William, although Apple and Amazon did not perform well, the combined shares of the two companies can be worth about 400 million. Chelsea Disney is almost exactly 1 billion US dollars, plus 1 billion. In US dollars in cash, the existing wealth of the Devon Hill Family Fund has exceeded 2 billion US dollars.
Many curious people checked and found that the richest person in England is the family foundation of the Duke of Westminster. The data in May this year showed that the wealth of this foundation was about 7 billion US dollars.
The richest woman is the Queen of King Philip of England, but the Queen's wealth is only 1.2 billion pounds, which is equivalent to about 1.5 billion US dollars. In this way, Lena Devonhill has really become the richest woman in England. ,
And suddenly someone broke the news on the Internet that Lena Devon Hill still has more than 300 million pounds in cash deposits in the Bank of England, plus the foundation's $1 billion in cash, now Lena has nearly 1.5 billion in cash. Around US dollars, she became the richest woman in England.
But within a day, the London police received a tip and caught the whistleblower, a trader who was fired by the Bank of England for making a mistake.
As soon as the news came out, people all over England went crazy with jealousy, but Lena was different from those women who got wealth by marrying. Lena relied on having a good son. No matter how upset the people were, the accusations against Lena were not Not much, who gave birth to a son is William Devon Hill, currently the richest man in England.
Yes, that’s right. The next day, all the newspapers in England used the headline “Two Richest Man” to report overwhelmingly that the Devon Hill family, mother and son, became the richest man in England at the same time. The media valued William’s wealth at $11 billion.
Leave a paragraph at the end of the Guardian's report stating that the $11 billion is the wealth they can find. The Guardian believes that William's actual wealth, after excluding the $2 billion of the Devon Hill family fund, is likely to have reached $15 billion,
Because the Guardian got an exclusive news, according to unconfirmed rumors, a set of bulletproof suits worth 5 million pounds has become popular in the upper echelons of England. The news broke after some relationships got Lena Devonhill's approval.
This kind of suit is no different from ordinary suits. The suit with bulletproof effect reaching level 4 was invented by William, and Weili is planning to join some well-known people to create a professional bulletproof equipment company.
With the current level of enthusiasm for this kind of bulletproof suit by the upper echelons of England, the valuation of this company has reached 4 billion US dollars before it started. The reason for this valuation is that as far as the boss of the Guardian newspaper knows, this new product Dozens, maybe even hundreds, have been sold before the listing.
The turnover before the official launch is expected to be 100 to 500 million pounds. According to the normal price-earnings ratio of 20 times, 4 billion US dollars is a very reasonable valuation. Once the bulletproof products company is listed, the company's valuation may directly reach billions of dollars,
Because the bulletproof effect of any other company that also deals in bulletproof suits can only reach the level of level 3 anti-pistol, and the fabric is twice as thick as that of William's company's products, and there is no dustproof and waterproof effect.
The most crucial thing is that the prices of these companies' products are not lower than the bulletproof suits invented by William, and some products are even 6 layers higher, reaching a staggering 8 million pounds a set.
As soon as the Guardian's report appeared, the next day all the products of all the special bulletproof casual clothing companies in the world experienced slow sales, and the stock prices of some listed companies began to decline.
This is a headache for William who is still in New York. He can imagine how much trouble and harassment he will encounter once he returns to England, but it will be even more trouble if he does not go back, because he is at home in New York and has received no less than 20 phone calls and hundreds of receptions.
Chapter 333 National Treasures in National Treasures
"God," William, who was sitting on the sofa watching the news, suddenly heard Ambrosio's exclamation. In a few seconds, Ambrosio walked quickly to William's side with an invitation, holding William's arm. excitedly said,
"My dear, this is the invitation letter for the reopening of the White Palace. The invitation letter was handwritten by Mr. Benjamin Arthur, and he also invited me, God, can I also go to the White Palace?"
"No", William refused without thinking, he didn't want to go and was almost beaten some time ago
The white palace was in ruins. When the white palace was occupied, more than 200 people died in it. Only ghosts have the mood to go to that ghost place.
Besides, William didn't care about Zhengzhi's affairs, so going there would only be a waste of time and he had to pretend to be happy to laugh.
"It's definitely not a good thing to go there. It's not a charitable fund asking me for money, or those big financial groups wanting to take shares in my new company. I'm an idiot to let those guys who eat people and don't spit out bones find a chance to enter my company."
"Okay then," Ambrosio lay on William's chest in disappointment, but said in a flattering tone after a few minutes, "Honey, can I get a new suit for my parents?"
"Well," William looked down at his cautious girlfriend.
"You know, the law and order in some parts of Brazil is not good. Now people all over the world know that I am your girlfriend. I am worried that my parents will have an accident." Ambrosio whispered.
"What's wrong with this, I will send 4 sets to Brazil for your parents, just one set for each person. You can tell your parents' sizes and preferences on Sunday, and I will make you two sets by the way."
Ambrosio hugged William and kissed him excitedly, "It's 6 sets at once, wouldn't it be too extravagant".
"The bulletproof fabric is made by myself, and the manufacturing cost is actually not high. The reason why it is so expensive is because the research and development costs are high. On the other hand, the prices of the companies engaged in this industry are generally too high. Better than them, wouldn't it be a fool if it was too cheap?
After a few years, more than ten years, the price of this kind of bulletproof suit will definitely drop several times, or even more than ten times. I now regret that I did not carefully investigate the current situation of this industry, and the products I came up with are better than the market. It will take me more than ten years to make more money, which will make me a lot less money.”
"Stop," Ambrosio patted William on the chest, "God, I don't want to hear anything about money anymore, my dear, I've been at home these days and heard too much about money from TV and newspapers. It's a matter of fact, no matter how much money I have, it's not mine, but my real girlfriend's pocket money is only 500,000 US dollars a month."
Ambrosio, who was talking vigorously, was slapped by William in the round place behind her, "Crack".
"You bastard, William," Ambrosio touched the place where he was beaten pitifully.
This made William roll his eyes involuntarily, "Tell me, what kind of jewelry or car, house, etc. are you looking for."
"Hey," Ambrosio put a few incense on the corner of William's mouth and said flatteringly: "I want to help my parents buy a house in a safe community near Rio Ipanema Beach, so as not to worry about their accident, but I myself There doesn't seem to be enough money."
"How much difference?" When he heard this, William didn't care. He thought it was right and proper to honor his parents, so he had no intention of rejecting it. Let her know why the flowers are red.
"I add the pocket money you gave to me to have 1.7 million US dollars, but I have to keep 100,000 for this month, so the difference is about 400,000 US dollars."
Hearing that it was only 2 million US dollars, William said happily, "Okay, you don't have to think about this matter, I will let someone help you find a house, your task is to look at the house, don't worry about the rest." William was in Ambrosio. He kissed on the face, "If you want to buy a house, buy a better one. You can save your money to find a suitable security company. I don't want to hear that your parents have an accident because you are my girlfriend."
"That's great." Ambrosio gave William a heavy kiss on the face, got up and ran to the side, took out his cell phone, and called her parents, forgetting that Mr. Benjamin Arthur, the US president, had invited them to the White Palace. Two clean,
In other words, Ambrosio did this on purpose when he saw that William was not interested in going, so that William would not feel sorry. After all, a model like her who is not yet famous would not have the opportunity to attend the banquet in the White Palace, even if she is famous, there is no special reason why the White Palace is Models will never be invited to a commemorative reception.
Let Sunday call down the invitation of the White Palace, and call Felix, the exclusive account manager of the Swiss National Bank, and ask him to find someone to go to Rio to find a house. After finishing these things, he stayed at home in New York for two days without anything to do. William was thinking about going back to the castle to hide. He was already annoyed by those invitations, receptions and so on.
Returning to the castle to learn about the preparations of the restaurant on the 11th for his mother's birthday banquet, and then participating in the Red Rabbit's 2930-meter championship in St. Richard's on the 21st,
It was the first time that his horse was officially on the track, so he had to attend such an opportunity to show off. Otherwise, if Chitu really ran the championship, the horse owner would be laughed at when he was not there.
In addition, Abigail, who helped him identify the antiques of the Celestial Dynasty in the hands of Archduke Devon and the others, had made no less than 5 phone calls in the past two days, all of which were to make him hurry back to London to buy antiques.
Abigail and 5 antique appraisal experts invited by the Chinese Dynasty, after preliminary appraisal of the first batch of thousands of antiques, found that the value of these antiques is quite high, and the cheapest ones can be worth tens of thousands of pounds at the current market price. In this era, one pound can be worth 11 to 12 yuan, and antiques worth more than 100,000 yuan in 2000 are definitely worth collecting.
However, there are too many. If we really want to complete the appraisal, the six of them don't know when they will be appraised. The six of them have only looked at about 300 antiques in the past three days, but among these 300 antiques There are several antiques that can be called national treasures.
However, the reason why the five experts from China couldn't wait and kept asking Abigail to call William to return to England was that a baron named Daniel Cabore found Abigail the day before yesterday. , gave her a document bag with a dozen photocopies and a word of hope to meet William and left.
After reading it, Abigail excitedly handed the information to the doubtful experts of the Celestial Dynasty. After reading the photocopy, all 5 experts were overwhelmed and incoherent, because the information on the photocopy was probably the Yongle Ceremony, and they read the pages. It should be a four-volume series of Yongle Ceremony.
This is a national treasure among national treasures.
Chapter 334 I'm not afraid of being robbed
And the other porcelains of the Yongle Ceremony, ancient paintings and the like are also very precious, but the cultural value is definitely not as important as the Yongle Ceremony, so these five experts will take the trouble to ask Abigail to call William back. England.
The reason why William stayed in New York for 2 days was just because of his suspicions, which not only allowed Sunday to conduct a full-scale investigation of the sudden appearance of Baron Daniel Cabore on the Internet, but also let Sunday spend money on the Internet secretly Hired a staff member of the English Noble Archives who would take personal work to retrieve the materials.
If he didn't find out where this guy named Kabore came from, William would definitely not see him. After all, there were not many people who knew that he and Archduke Devon and the others traded antiques from the Celestial Dynasty.
William, who was thinking about this, suddenly heard Sunday say: "Sir, Miss Abigail's phone".
"Dizzy, didn't she tell the experts that I still have something to do?" William had a headache when he heard that it was Abigail's call, and fell on the sofa weakly; "Take it over."
"Hello, good evening, boss, I didn't disturb you and Miss Ambrosio's two-person world."
