Chapter 339: 24 Fortune 500 Companies
Although Ford Brooke was suspicious, the clue was broken. Ford Brooke couldn't even find out the offshore companies behind these four websites, let alone Henry behind them!
Even if the offshore company is found, the offshore company will not disclose any information about the shareholders, and it is useless to find out, and Ford Brooke can only guess.
In 1995, many of Henry's companies began to make money for him like crazy. Since last year, Henry has paid $45 billion in annual dividends alone, mainly from banks, telecommunications, Williams electronics, games, movies, hospitals, pharmaceuticals and real estate.
In last year's Forbes Global 500 list, 24 companies under Henry's name entered the list:
Williams Electronics, Williams Bank of America, Cisco, Qualcomm, Noah's Ark, Silicon Map Inc., Nicholas International E-Commerce, ICQ Corporation, Isearch Corporation, Nicholas IMDB Corporation, Firefly Games Inc., Atari Corporation, Galaxy Pictures Inc., ABC Broadcasting Company, Majestic Capital, Global Land, Williams International Hospital Alliance, Gene Umbrella, Lockheed Martin, SpaceX, Victoria's Secret, winsom Architects, Asia Television Ltd., Domain Name Management Company!!!
Among the top 10 of the world's top 500 companies are Cisco, Williams Electronics, Williams Bank of America, Cisco Corporation ranks first, Williams Bank of America ranks sixth, and Williams Electronics ranks ninth.
Although Cisco is a subsidiary of Williams Electronics, the parent company and the subsidiary are financially independent, so they are ranked separately.
This year. Henry also acquired Thames Water and British Energy. These two companies have developed well, and they are the world's top 500.
When Henry was in England, he wanted to make a contribution to the world's environment. So, he bought Thames Water. At that time, he was also preparing to buy a U.S. waste management company to deal with solid waste pollution. However, it was still in England at the time, and Henry thought to himself that it would not be too late to return to the United States to buy the company again.
After Henry was busy with other things, he was idle for a while, and he couldn't help but think of the American Waste Management Company.
Thereupon. Henry instructed his acquisition team to take action against the U.S. Waste Management Company.
Currently, Henry has $75 billion left on hand. If there are always banks, inflation will depreciate. So, naturally, Henry wants to make big acquisitions of companies and invest in technology!
However, it just so happened that at this time, the movie "Titanic" had been filmed, and the promotion stage had already been carried out. When Henry saw the "big ship", he remembered that he didn't seem to have a yacht yet......
"Smith. Which company in the United States builds aircraft carriers?" asked the head of his acquisition team, because Henry often buys companies, so his acquisition team needs to know most of the companies in the world inside and out.
Edward Smith was around 40 years old. Ph.D. in Psychology and Economics from Harvard University, the world's top negotiator, 1994. Hired by Henry to join the Williams Acquisition team!
Newport-News (Newport News Shipyard). Edward Smith added, "Newport News Shipyard is currently the only shipyard in the United States that can build super aircraft carriers. and has a close working relationship with the neighboring U.S. Navy Naval Base Norfolk!"
"The only one?" Henry's eyes lit up when he heard this, so the Newport News shipyard was literally a bunker! The American aircraft carriers were actually produced by this company!
"Smith, your goal is to buy it!!" Henry said loudly.
"Understood, boss!" said Smith, "Tennicol, the parent company of Newport News Shipyard, is trying to spin it off, and we can just buy it!!"
"Oh, good luck!" said Henry, "that's great, you guys move fast, try to take the Newport News shipyard as soon as possible, and I'm going to make it build a yacht for me!"
"Build a yacht ......" Smith heard this, and his face suddenly froze.
"What's the matter? Can't Newport News Shipyard build yachts?" asked Henry rhetorically.
"This ...... It's not that it can't be built, it's just that," Smith said, "you know, boss, Newport News Shipyard builds aircraft carriers, isn't it a bit too much for them to build yachts......
"Something...... "Henry waved his hand, "It's reassuring to use the technology of an aircraft carrier to make a yacht!"
"Oh, by the way, does the Newport News shipyard just build aircraft carriers?" asked Henry.
"No, they also make frigates, destroyers and nuclear submarines. In particular, nuclear submarines are only available to two companies in the United States, and the Newport News shipyard is one of them!"
That's awesome!
Henry couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At this time, Henry couldn't help but ponder, he remembered that the company with the most powerful nuclear power technology in the United States and even the world was Westinghouse Electric Company, and Newport News Shipyard could only develop faster if it got Westinghouse Electric Company's nuclear power technology!
Actually, Henry's idea was quite correct.
In the past, Westinghouse Electric was acquired by Northrop Grumman. Later, Northrop Grumman acquired Newport News Shipyard, which made Newport News Shipyard as a standout in the field of aircraft carrier manufacturing!
Northrop Grumman is a very powerful arms company, and the world's most advanced drone "Global Hawk" is made by Northrop Grumman!
Henry remembers that Northrop Grumman's acquisition of Westinghouse was in 1996, and that negotiations must have been underway before.
Thinking of this, Henry couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Smith, at the same time as the acquisition of Newport News Shipyard, the acquisition of Westinghouse Electric Company was initiated, but you only need to buy the nuclear energy division of Westinghouse Electric Company!"
As soon as Smith heard this, he understood what Henry meant, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, boss!"

“Every-night-in-my-distance,
I-see-you,I-feel-you,
……”
At this time, the theme song of "Titanic" "My Heart is Eternal" has been logged in to the website and client of Tiantian Music.
A trailer for Titanic appeared on YouTube, accompanied by a soulful and beautiful song, in which Jack and Lucy stood at the bow of the ship and embraced: "You-jump, I-jump!"
"The epic masterpiece is coming, the most memorable love disaster film in this summer!!"
"On August 1, 1995, it will be released worldwide!"
There is no doubt about the ability of "Titanic" to attract gold.
Henry was very concerned about this, so he took the time to go to Galaxy Films.
Helen Wheeler has been promoted to senior manager at Galaxy Films. On the one hand, she works hard and has outstanding ability, and on the other hand, of course, it has something to do with Henry.
When Henry arrived, Bobby Robin and Helen Wheeler and other high-ranking officials came out to greet him.
"Welcome Chairman !!"
Henry nodded to them as a greeting.
When Henry came to the office, he said to Bobby Robin, "Bobby, go get a copy, I want to watch Titanic!"
"Okay, Chairman!"
Henry looked at Helen, who was standing nearby, pulled her over, and sat down next to him.
"Your face is cold, what's the matter, you're mad at me?" Henry laughed.
"What's the matter with Princess Ulysses?!"
Henry laughed dryly and explained: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and the Queen of England wanted to marry Princess Ulysses to Prince Andrew of Sweden, don't you know, that Prince Andrew looked like a lion, it was really ugly." After all, Princess Ulysses and I know each other, and have a good relationship, so how can I bear to see her fall into the fire pit......?
Helen turned her face away and said, "How many other women are you going to find?"
Henry pondered how to answer.
Seeing this, Helen pursed her mouth angrily and slapped Henry's arm with her hand: "Okay, you still need to hesitate to answer this question, it seems that you still want to continue to look for it?!!"
"Isn't it that when we are old and decrepit, you will have to find a lot of women!" said Helen, and Helen's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"I'm not going to mess around looking for women, I promise!"
Helen shook her head, "You are so attentive, I can't believe it!"
Henry jerked Helen into his arms, then leaned down and kissed her deeply on the lips.
"520! I'll marry your !!"
