Chapter 478: I Want to Ask You One Thing (One Change)

"Half-brother......? Does old Mr. Johnson know?"

Lin Zitan was indeed shocked when he heard the news, but he didn't know if George told Old Johnson about it, and if Old Johnson knew about it, why didn't he tell Emma?

"We all found out after Kate's suicide, when Bill called someone to inform me and Kate's father, because Kate's mother had already passed away at that time, and I didn't know until I was notified...... She turned out to be my half-sister.

Since then, I have been with the elder Johnson, on the one hand, taking care of Emma for my sister, and on the other hand, doing scientific research with the elder Johnson, but I am too dull to achieve anything academically. ”

George sighed.

"Then why don't you tell Emma about this, I see that she still doesn't know who you are. Lin Zi was puzzled.

"We don't want to cause her any dependence, Kate's death has been quite a blow to her, but I didn't expect her to be really strong, that is, in a year or two, all the grief was calmed.

At that time, she began to live happily like any other normal child, and none of us wanted to break her state, so ...... Until now, none of us have said it. ”

Next, George confessed a lot of unknown facts to Lin Zitan, such as the invisible big hand that pushed Lin Zitan when he competed with the Amanda family, the escort yacht that suddenly appeared in the sea, and many other things that Lin Zitan couldn't figure out before, most of which George did for him at the behest of old Johnson.

"Another thing I don't quite understand, at the end of 2016, you invested in a new energy company as Mr. Johnson Sr., and this investment suddenly stopped injecting capital after Mr. Johnson Sr. passed away, what happened to this matter?"

After listening to George's words, Lin Zitan carefully checked the previous questions in his heart, and finally asked the focus of today's conversation at the end.

"That company was originally supported by the Amanda family, the elder George, that is, your nemesis, when their family fell, I was not ready to intervene, but Mr. Johnson Sr. has devoted his life to the development and research of new energy, so I don't know which peer sent him a distress call.

The old gentleman learned about this company with great interest, and saw that this project was indeed promising, so he asked me to inject capital support in his name, but after so many years, this company has not been able to break through the technical bottleneck.

Even if Mr. Johnson Sr. had not died, he had already planned to stop injecting capital as soon as possible, so this was not a coincidence, but just one of the projects that Mr. Johnson had invested in, and 20% of the shares of their company had been inherited by Mr. Eddie. ”

"Eddie? That's great! I happen to have such a venture capital project in my hand right now, and the Smith family is willing to sell 30% of his hands at a low price, and today when I learned about this case, I found out that this company was funded by Mr. Johnson Sr., so ......"

Lin Zitan briefly explained to George the reason why he checked George's identity.

"Sir, don't worry, now that Mr. Johnson is gone, your business will be my business in the future, if you trust me, in addition to family affairs, there is anything you need my help with at work, although you say that you dare not guarantee anything else, but Mr. Johnson's network resources, I still have some of them!"

After listening to Lin Zitan's explanation, George also said frankly with relief.

"Okay, if you need to, I will definitely trouble you, as for your identity, I also respect your own decision, if you want to say, I can also explain it to Emma for you. ”

Although Lin Zitan was still suspicious of George's identity, the fact that the elder Johnson had helped him in private was vivid, so Lin Zitan chose to believe what George said for the time being, and said to him very respectfully.

"Sir, don't worry about this, I don't need to show my identity to protect her, as long as you are happy, I can also give my sister and Mr. Johnson an explanation, let's let her simply live!"

As soon as George said these words, the children's after-school tutoring was over, and after sending the teacher away, George went to arrange dinner for Lin Zitan and his son.

……………………

That night, Lin Zitan contacted Eddie to discuss the matter of the new energy company, but Eddie was too busy to deal with such a small investment project, and heard Lin Zitan say that the company had been losing money, and immediately decided to transfer the shares to Lin Zitan.

"They are losing money now, not necessarily all the time, I'm just telling you not to sell your shares to others, not asking you to sell them to me!"

Lin Zitan said helplessly.

"You also know how busy I am now, even if such a small company can make a few dollars if it is profitable, you should do me a favor, how much others sell, I will sell as much as I want, you buy whatever you want to integrate, I just developed a new hotel on the West Coast, I really don't have time to take care of this kind of small case. ”

Add doesn't care about authenticity.

"Why are you going to the West Coast again? with Frank?"

Lin Zitan said with a smile.

"Well, it's mainly the film and television base he invested in, where there are a lot of big stars filming or something, and the prospects are good. The location is a little remote, I bought a building, ready to take care of it, renovated into a five-star luxury hotel, by the way, when the first phase of our development project was completed in early May, I happened to be absent, you remember to worry a little more. ”

The two chatted for most of the day, most of which were business, and before hanging up, the two made an appointment on the time and place of the resale of the shares of the new energy company.

"It seems that this case is going to be done!"

Lin Zitan muttered to himself with the phone that had been hung up.

The next day, Lin Zitan told Jimmy about the progress on his side, and when he heard that Lin Zitan had decided to do this project, Joseph immediately took the phone from Jimmy's hand excitedly.

"Daniel, don't worry, if this case is taken down, I can definitely make you more than three times as much!"

"For the sake of this project, I'll trust you once! Triple is not necessary, as long as you don't lose money!"

Lin Zitan said in a relaxed tone.

"No, no, no, believe me, three times the minimum, I mean the lowest!"

Joseph said excitedly.

Then things went very smoothly, and Mr. Smith really reluctantly sold 30% of the shares of the new energy company at a low price of $40 million, plus 20% in Lin Zitan's hands and 10% in Joseph's hands.

Joseph finally managed to kick Elsa's father out of the C-suite at their end-of-Q1 shareholder meeting and forced him to sell his remaining 20% stake to their venture capital firm.

Just when Lin Zitan was concentrating on official business and Lin Musen's follow-up arrangements, he unexpectedly received a call from Elsa.

"Hey, which one?"

Lin Zitan watched an unfamiliar number call in, and thought it was Lin Musen, who knew that there was a familiar and unfamiliar voice coming from inside, if he hadn't heard Elsa's voice not long ago, he really didn't have a number.

Elsa's voice was hoarse, as if she had just cried.

"Daniel, it's me, Elsa. I...... I want to ask you for one thing!"
