Chapter 328: Fortunately, I'm still alive now (Second Update, continue to beg for push, ask for votes~)
Lin Zitan's reluctance to cooperate with Joseph on new energy is definitely not because he doesn't want to make a lot of money, he just doesn't want to invest his money in this kind of industry where the return rate is too slow, and he doesn't know how many houses he can buy with the money invested in the early stage.
The most important thing is that Lin Zitan's eyes are not on the affiliated companies of the Amanda family, but on the direct companies.
This time, Frank not only dug up some substantive evidence of Amanda and the old councillor, but also found some private illnesses of William.
William is an addict, and according to his ex-boyfriends in the past, this person is not only a fan addict, but also has violent and sadistic tendencies after drinking, which is the main reason why he is not often seen in the public eye.
The most important thing is that William is normally a very intelligent person and very business-minded.
But there is strong evidence that when he was an intern after graduating from college, he had overused narcotic drugs on a patient and had him die, and George Sr. paid for it.
The so-called hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, the total asset value of their family before the death of old George was about 1.3 billion, because the sudden death of old George made the stock plummet instantly, and the market value of their family shrank by 50% in a few months.
But later, with Amanda's release on bail, all the previous related charges against her were pushed on the body of the dead old George, so his family's case was shelved or postponed again and again, so that their stock price rarely eased.
Lin Zitan got Frank's information and knew that the one who quietly helped Amanda behind her back was indeed her old friend, the retired old city councilor.
What's even more infuriating is that it is the eldest son of the old councillor, a city council candidate named Nash, who helped lead all this.
In order to increase his exposure, Nash also took several media outlets that exposed his father's affair with Amanda to court, thus gaining the attention of many voters.
As we all know, the election in the United States was originally a game for the rich, not only the presidential election was a process of exposing scandals and demolishing the stage,
The same is true for ordinary city councilors and state council elections, where it is commonplace for candidates to attack each other and tear each other down and break up scandals, and over time it becomes part of the rules of the game.
Lin Zitan and Eric summed up the lessons of the previous election troubles for George Sr. with little success, and this time they bet all their attention on the candidate named Nash.
In the past, George Sr. was a state legislator, and the scope was too broad for them to do so, but this time Nash's district happened to be in Manhattan, so it was relatively easy to find a way to attack this candidate.
The most unexpected thing for them was that as soon as they started to prepare, someone broke the news on social media and a website called Mi Gossip that Nash had been in 2011.
On social media, he communicated sex messages with several women× and also posted indecent photos of himself.
As soon as this revelation came out, it immediately triggered a new round of revelations, and a woman came forward to corroborate, saying that this guy still maintains a private relationship with no less than three women on social media in the past two years.
This scandal completely led to his defeat in the city council election on November 7, 2013, and although he vowed to continue to work hard to run in the next New York mayoral election, the voice and abuse were still disproportionate.
-----------------------
Lin Zitan and Eric saw Nash who stepped directly into the country, and the Amanda family, which was shaken again, because the Amanda family was the most important donation support consortium for the congressional candidate.
The two of them carefully designed a lot of tricks to let the major networks and media exaggerate the scandal of the old councillor and Amanda.
Until I saw that the Amanda family's stock went all the way down, even below the price of their Easyrent,
Lin Zitan and Eric both joined forces and quickly won 35% of their family's shares for 148 million.
He also successfully took over 3 golf courses and 50 mid-to-high-end brand clothing and boutiques of the Amanda family, as well as 50 medium-sized pharmacies owned by William.
And they learned during the handover that the main manager of the three golf courses had always been Lin Zitan's stepfather Mike.
"I'll just say that your stepfather has always had a bad PY deal with the Amanda family!" Eric smirked as he snorted.
"That's why I almost got disposed of by them again after believing his nonsense!" Lin Zi said with a faint smile.
In order to acquire the shares of the Amanda family, Lin Zitan happened to use up the funds obtained from Easyrent, and then the two of them directly entrusted the Amanda consortium to an investment company and let the family help take care of it.
All they need to do is attend the shareholders' meeting to boost their morale!
Amanda and William have been ousted from the board, and their shares have now been sold to pay off taxes and high loans from their large assets.
Looking at Amanda's resentful eyes before leaving, Lin Zitan even suspected that this woman didn't remember that they had provoked him first, and everything he was doing now was just to protect himself!
As for that William, Lin Zitan only needs to spread this guy's drug history, violence and X abuse on the media resources he has, which has already made him dare not show his head in the circle.
Even James, who had been with him before, silently chose to break up, and was taken back by his father to inherit the family business.
---------------------
Lin Zi got off work early that night, and after dinner with Emma, he saw that Emma was busy with her design, so he went back to the study to work boringly.
Seeing that another year has passed, Lin Zitan feels that this year's harvest is very rich, and the most important thing is that he finally doesn't have to worry about the old nightmare all day long!
Open his latest MacBook, in addition to the three stocks he bought before, now he is most concerned about the new one he bought last year and the one he bought back from the Amanda family, originally he wanted to buy it and sell it directly.
But considering that it is now sold and all kinds of miscellaneous taxes are removed, it is estimated that he will not even be able to get back the principal, so he has to keep it in his hand first.
This year, Gu Ge's stock has risen very well, from more than $360 at the beginning of the year to more than $550 at the end of the year, and Amazon has risen from $256 to about $400.
Lin Zitan bought it at $19.01 at the lowest price in October 2012, and at that time it was so cheap to buy 200,000 shares first, but I didn't expect it to have risen to more than $54 after a year.
To his surprise, the smallest increase among all stocks turned out to be Apple, which opened at more than 78 yuan at the beginning of the year and was almost flat at about $80 at the end of the year.
Lin Zitan looked at the 100,000 shares of Gu Ge and 100,000 shares of Amazon, 200,000 shares of Apple and 200,000 shares of Apple in his hand, and suddenly felt a little worried about whether he had bet on the wrong treasure, after all, in his previous life, he only lived until July 2013.
I bought Apple just because the Apple mobile phone in the world was too hot, and he queued up all night to buy a crazy 4S, but he didn't buy it yet.
As for the direction of Apple's stock price in the future, it looks like it will continue to climb to a new peak.
In particular, I saw all kinds of news about Apple, which set a market capitalization record of $623.5 billion in 2012 and just released the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s on September 11, 2013.
This year, the battery life of MacBookAir was slightly upgraded, and the new MacPro and iOS7 were released, and in the 2013 Omnicom Group's "World's Best Brands" report, it surpassed Coca-Cola to become the world's most valuable brand.
After looking at it for a long time, I thought that I wouldn't be able to use the money in the stock for the time being anyway, so I would continue to put it there!
Lin Zitan sat there and thought about it a little, the money he now has in the stock alone is already more than 100 million, plus his other industries, not to mention three or four hundred million, so he couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
Fortunately, I'm still alive, otherwise I wouldn't even have a chance to spend so much money!
