Chapter 431: Old Bernard
The trees that were planted back then are now bearing fruit, and they are the kind that pick the fruit until they are soft.
It took Ye Dongqing nearly two years to earn the first $10 billion in his life, and now he can earn so much in a month, and the skyrocketing rate of his worth is a little uncontrollable.
Speaking of the reason for the recent surge in value, it is mainly due to the emergence of the iPhone, which has changed people's expectations of the prospects of the Internet industry, so it ushered in another wave of rising opportunities, and his assets are mainly distributed in the Internet field.
Take Tencent as an example, the company's market value has skyrocketed by nearly $1 billion in just one quarter, and Ye Dongqing is the company's largest shareholder, so investors naturally paid attention to it, and then felt more and more valuable.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that Tencent has too few outstanding shares.
Some experts assert that the Internet bubble has appeared again based on the inflated price-earnings ratio, and Ye Dongqing is not clear what others think, but he has no intention of cashing out at present, compared to the interest that needs to be paid, continue to maintain the status quo, and hold stocks for a long time will undoubtedly bring him more profits, and people are currently treating him as a legend.
According to the current trend, Ye Dongqing felt that he should soon transfer part of the shares of Tamsui Investment Group to a charitable foundation under his name, although the wealth was still in his hands, which was nominally equivalent to reducing his value.
In this kind of thing, he doesn't want to be in the limelight, mainly in a few years, the total value will definitely be quite terrifying, and the gap between the rich and the poor is too large and it is an unavoidable social topic, and it is inevitable that it will become the target of public criticism if the limelight is too strong, and it is necessary to increase investment in social welfare undertakings, and it is easier to protect oneself if the reputation is good.
To be honest, this speed of making money makes him feel scared, money has always been a double-edged sword, the reason why he came to the company today is to talk to his employees about donations, according to Mr. McCord's idea, he should be important, invite reporters from all sides, hold a charity auction or something.
......
Todd Hankins.
This guy was also fanned by Ye Dongqing's "butterfly wings", in the last life, he had entered a field similar to "scavenger", specializing in helping the upper class in Washington deal with some shady things, and also carried out some part-time jobs, such as money laundering, smuggling, etc., and earned no less money than Ye Dongqing, and even because of his wide connections, he was richer than him.
The reason for forcing Ye Dongqing to death is obvious, he knows a lot of things that he shouldn't know, so when the purge came, he became a thorn in the side of some people, he, the immortal who was responsible for money laundering, many people couldn't sleep well at night.
It's a pity that they moved too fast and didn't give Ye Dongqing much time to prepare, otherwise it would be very likely to escape and run to other countries to be at ease, just spend a lifetime like this, there must be a way back, unfortunately he underestimated the determination of some people.
I don't know if it should be said to be a good thing or a bad thing, if it weren't for that kind of thing, he wouldn't be able to live the life he has now, thank you is impossible to say, now Ye Dongqing wants to send this guy to prison, there are new hatreds and old hatreds.
In this life, Todd Hankins has embarked on a different life trajectory, he has been doing nothing since he retired, wanting too much and having too little.
I didn't have the courage to go to the bank or jewelry store to grab money, but I happened to see the news on the Internet that people had hung up a lot of money to buy an iPhone, so I put my mind on Apple's direct store, called a few friends together, and used my position to empty the warehouse this morning.
Originally, it was just a vacancy, but by accident, I learned that the two people with criminal records entered the scene without gloves, and simply sprinkled some spirits as an accelerant before the opening in an attempt to burn the scene.
does have brains, just like acting in a movie, but what he didn't expect was that Ye Dongqing actually knew him.
For the next two days, the police did not get any clues or heard of anyone selling stolen goods on a large scale, and in this case, a printed report letter was sent to the NYPD.
Ye Dongqing printed it out, knowing the name Todd Hankins, the next arrest was very smooth, there was almost no suspense, he heard that a gang was eliminated that day, he laughed happily, but appointed the most professional lawyer to play, and named Todd Hankins to be sent to the worst prison according to the strictest sentence.
For arson, theft, fraud, and other crimes, with the help of a good lawyer, you can be sentenced to more than ten years.
A good lawyer can not only help people clear their names, but also put people to death, and think of a way to prepare for the clerk who was in the store at the time to also initiate a joint lawsuit for murder.
The lawyer asked Ye Dongqing why he did this, and he only said that he had received a threatening letter for his personal safety, but he was not prepared to disclose the matter to the public, which was a good excuse, and the matter was almost over.
It may be difficult for an ordinary person to deal with many things, but there is no pressure on him to ask his assistant to have a meal with the judge in his own name, trusting that the other party should know what to do......
Bernard Madoff Sr. was abruptly released from prison on the second day of October, and he was still on bail, but he was already relatively free, and he reported to the parole officer on time, so he could not try to leave the country.
The Securities and Exchange Commission punished him for not entering the financial field for ten years, and this old man is finished.
still has a conscience, just released on parole, and came to Ye Dongqing the next day to thank him, if it wasn't for Ye Dongqing pulling him, this old man might have sat in prison, how could he live in the best prison in the United States like before, and he was released on parole so quickly.
Being able to watch TV in prison, as well as reading newspapers and magazines, old Bernard knew what Ye Dongqing had become now, and at the moment he was wearing a suit, and said: "I have to congratulate you, I thought you were not simple when I first met, but now you are really more powerful, not everyone has the confidence to borrow so much money to expand their business, and they have also invested in promising projects." ”
For the time being, I can't figure out the old man's intentions, his reputation and previous connections are ruined, and the family's money has also been confiscated and used to return it to the previous investors, because it is not enough, Ye Dongqing also posted a large sum of money at that time.
It can't be said that this transaction was a loss, at that time, he made a lot of money with the money invested in the principal, but from the bright side, Ye Dongqing did lose money, and now he can't figure out whether the old man wants to invite credit and get some help from himself.
"I'm just lucky, I'm okay after I come out, how are the family?" Ye Dongqing pretended to be confused, no one died, the family was broken, the past honor, extravagant life, etc. were all turned into smoke, and it was estimated that it would not be much better.
The only thing worth discussing is whether the old man hid money elsewhere in the first place, and the accounts were found correctly, but the authenticity has to be questioned, and judging from the cunning character of this old Jew, he should have left himself a way back......
