While Douglas and the Iron Tiger investigate the mastermind behind the abduction of the African task force, Link is not idle.

He accepted all kinds of invitations and had to fly all over the world.

Attend a number of industry conferences and give presentations.

He didn't have to work so hard. But that's not just about himself, it's about his business, and even preparing for his children's future.

He attends those meetings to speak out in the industry on behalf of his companies. At the same time, it is also running the reputation of the entire family. And this reputation will affect his children in the future.

But Douglas and Iron Tiger's investigation has not made any progress for more than a month. All the clues were broken in the cities of Kinshasa and Manaus.

It was as if the black man had disappeared among the billions of black people in Africa. And that Mark Hood didn't know where to hide in that corner of South America. There are too many remote areas in South America. Those cities and towns can't find people, and no matter how great the Iron Tiger is, he can't find people in countless villages in millions of square kilometers of primeval forest. It is even less likely to break into those private farms to find people.

Douglas found no useful clues, so he had to report back to Link.

Link also knew that he was doing his best, and said, "Then investigate further from the current clues and see if we can find new clues." Especially those funds and companies. ”

In the aftermath of the attack, Link asked Dill to provide additional security personnel to all of Benehans' teams in Africa and South America, as well as those countries.

It was Jeff's birthday, and Link and Jessica flew to Nevada with the kids to celebrate Jeff's birthday in the afternoon after the kids got out of school.

The next morning, Jessica and her children rushed back to Washington to go to school or work. Link, on the other hand, stayed in Las Vegas.

He was going to New York in the afternoon, and he was waiting for the plane to fly from Washington. He took advantage of the morning time to go to Hans Investment.

Hans Investment Company and Hans Fund are actually managed by the same set of people. Ames is the third president of the company, and Link is still very satisfied with his work.

In the past year or so, Hanse Investment has developed quite well, and the Hanse Fund has also been used quite well.

Link was in Ames' office looking at Ames' plan report. After reading it, he said, "This plan has been reviewed?"

"Yes, it has been approved by the review team. ”

Link continued to look at the plan, thought about it, signed it, and said, "The Hans Fund has the largest budget for the funds designed for this plan, and you will give me a summary every month in the future." ”

Ames nodded and said, "Okay!"

That report was Ames' adaptation to one of this year's philanthropic projects. The programme involved several countries, amounted to $5 billion in funds, and had a five-year planning cycle.

The project is a partnership with UNICEF to recruit volunteers to help defend the rights of children and women whose rights have been violated around the world.

One billion dollars a year will be spent by UNICEF and the Hans Foundation, covering all countries that have signed the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The use of the funds, Link thinks is well worth it.

He wanted to advertise that he cared for children. This project is in keeping with his image. Moreover, his reputation and influence in philanthropy will expand globally with this project.

But there was one more thing he had in mind. He asked Ames, "Do you think there's only one global ambassador on a global scale?" ”

"If the boss you think it's too little, we can invite two celebrities, a man and a woman. ”

Link shook his head and said, "Global Ambassador, you can do it." In the end, however, each country invited one. "It is impossible to ask for money for this kind of charitable endorsement, at most it is the cost of the activity. "Global and North American ambassadors can try to invite Bella Soren, and if she doesn't have time, you can invite someone else. Ambassadors for other continents other than Asia, depending on the situation. In Asia, you can look for it within China. ”

"Okay. Boss. ”

Link nodded and said, "This project is of great significance. You'd better set up a committee to take care of this. Some philanthropic celebrities can be invited to participate. In addition, this fund account number must be disclosed to the public on a quarterly basis, regardless of expenses or income. ”

"Yes, boss!"

"Anything else?"

"With this, we think Hans can continue to expand. Moreover, the establishment of Hans low-rent apartments can also change their functions, from the previous only to provide accommodation and targeted training, and can be transformed into other unemployed people who have a residence to provide employment guidance training, or provide some professional skills training. ”

Link took the report and looked at it, and it proposed six new low-rent apartments. These apartments are no longer providing accommodation for families of the unemployed. It's about making a school. The apartments are used as dormitories and teaching places for trainees.

Each training session lasts for one month. Anyone can apply for free training. Free accommodation in low-rent apartments and food at cost prices.

"With so many majors set up in each training session, it may be quite difficult to hire teachers and prepare for teaching. ”

"And the expenses are also high. If full, the cost of a single training session in a low-cost apartment could reach $1 million. The cost of land purchase to build such a large training center will also be very large. ”

Link shook his head and said, "It's not a problem with spending, it's a problem with organization. "Hans has more and more money, and he needs to use some of it.

He thought for a moment and then said, "That's a good idea. He took out another pen and signed, but wrote down a comment. "You can go and find the right land first. However, I need to see the feasibility report on the organizational side. ”

He signed, is permission to spend the money. However, it will not be possible to fully implement it until the conditions of his instructions are met.

Ames took the report and looked at Link's instructions, and said, "I'll organize people to discuss this issue." We will also consult with experienced professionals. ”

Link nodded and said, "Okay." There is also a new type of low-rent apartment that can also be implemented outside the United States, if conditions permit. ”

"Okay!" Ames said, pulling out another file. At this time, the investment company makes an annual investment plan that is adjusted according to your requirements. ”

Link took a look, mainly on the issues he had previously raised.

Hanse Investments is a company that uses Link's money to make money. How to use Link's funds is his greatest responsibility. This year, Link's main investment direction is mainly funds, and he also invests in companies with stable performance around the world.

The money of the Hans Fund is basically earned from the Hans Investment Company. It can be said that Link's principal is actually retained, and most of it has been invested in other things.

It's a great way to avoid taxes. Invest money in the financial markets and keep your income steady every year. The tax on this income is only 30% of the normal tax rate. After the income is invested, you can reduce taxes, and invest some of the money in the Hans Fund, and you can meet the taxes.

The Hans Foundation uses money to make money, and it is setting up different accounts for charity. In general, Ames needs to maintain a certain increase in the amount of funds in the Hans Fund. But also use the money earned to build a good name for Link and his family.

In the words of the media, it was Link who valued his responsibility to society.

The cost of praise from the media and the public is very high. And Link doesn't feel like he's at a loss.

Now in the United States, none of the conglomerates controls more assets than his.

There is no family that can compare to him.

Link's goal is too big. He needs to build an invisible windshield for himself and his family.

And a good reputation is naturally the best windshield.

After signing his name on one last paper, Link left Hanse Investments. It was almost noon, and he went to the main store of Clover and asked Bill and Harry to have lunch together.

Clover Restaurant Group now has four brands of restaurants, branches in the East and major cities in the United States, Clover brand alone has more than 60 branches in the United States, Link @ Hallissy Restaurant, and more than 200 branches.

In terms of assets, both Harry and Bill are now billionaires. The three of them didn't talk about anything official, it was just a gathering between friends.

In the afternoon, Link's plane flew to Las Vegas, and he flew to New York.

He hadn't seen Fren in a while.

"Fren, I feel like you're in good fortune. At the airport, Link and Flen hugged and said. "Maybe you've found your spring?"

"God, if it's spring, I'm going to be thinner!" Flon said with a laugh. "My stomach is up because I've been so busy lately that I don't even have time to go to the gym. ”

"I don't think it's my fault!"

"I now know why Neil is called the Fox of Wall Street." ”

Link laughs and says, "I figured it out a few years ago. You will find that the materials he reads every day are piled up on his desk. ”

"Yes, I found out too. He prefers to look at paper materials. And watch a lot every day. ”

Fren said helplessly: "But after he left, I found that the whole company was pressed on me. I was quite stressed. ”

Now Fren is no longer the president of Stoll because Stoll and Ozette Finance and Investment merged to form Ozette @ Stoll Investment. Now Flon controls more than $80 billion, far more than Neil said he could overrun.

However, this money is mainly invested in stocks with stable returns or assets such as buying bonds. Only a small amount of liquidity can be used to operate the market.

After the two got into the car, Flon raised the middle bezel of the car and said, "I don't think you're going to come to talk to me." ”

Link nodded and said, "Do you remember the hijacking of the Benehans Group's African working group?"

"Of course I do. You and Deere have done an excellent job. Of course, your security company is also excellent. If time is brewed for a day or two, it will be a big blow to your reputation and that of Benehans. ”

Link tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "But that's far from over. ”

Flon was stunned for a moment and asked, "Wasn't that armed force jointly surrounded and suppressed by the local government forces of the Ross Security Company?"

"That armed man is just a thug. The main messenger behind the scenes has not been found yet. Link paused and said. "I suspect that some powerful force is specifically targeting my actions. ”

When Fren heard this, he frowned and asked, "Are you sure you can deal with your forces, I think it must be terrifying." ”

"Maybe it's a combination of several forces. ”

Fren frowned and stopped talking, if that was the case, Link could solve it once, and it could happen next time.

"I've found the mastermind behind it, but maybe I'll be able to find some of the people who are behind it. ”

Flon heard him and said, "What do you need me to do?"

Link laughs and says, "They're all Wall Street companies." We may not be able to deal with those big funds, but some small investment companies can probably move it. ”

Fren understood what he meant: "You want to make a move through the company?"

Link nodded and said, "Yes." But it won't be just you. I'll arrange for some people outside the forest to take action. You just think you see an opportunity. ”

Fren knew that Link and Neil had invested in a number of financial investment companies, and the capital of those companies may not be abundant, but they were numerous, and Link had a lot of money. If Link invests his money in those companies, those companies can move the entire U.S. stock market.

But Furren didn't think it was a good idea.

"Link, if you do that, you're kind of challenging the whole Wall Street. You know, the stock market in the United States is actually dominated by Wall Street. ”

"I don't think you'll be afraid. ”

Fren smiled and said, "There's really nothing to be afraid of. At most, I go back to the time before the merger. "He and the company don't have much debt, and even if the company loses a lot of money in this operation, he won't go bankrupt personally. And he also invests a lot in other areas. No matter what, he can't die of poverty.

But Wall Street is more than just a famous street name. That is actually one of the most economically powerful conglomerates in the United States - the Wall Street consortium.

And the main controllers of this consortium are the Jews.

It takes a lot of courage to challenge them.

Fren thought about it for a while, and didn't immediately ask Link what his detailed plans were. He proposed: "Perhaps we should consult with Neil." ”

Link nodded and said, "That's what I came to New York for." I made an appointment with him to meet in the evening. Snapton will come then, too. ”

"Which companies are you going to acquire?"

"If there's a chance, why not?"

Fren smiled and said, "You're right, why not?"

Link didn't really want to get to that point. It's just that now neither Douglas nor Iron Tiger can find a clue to prove who did it. Then he had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and cut off the minions of that force. Let the other party understand his tolerance line.

Neil arrives at the hotel with Snapton for dinner with Link before dinner, along with Fren, of course.

After listening to Link's thoughts, Neil thought for a while and said, "Link, have you noticed, the U.S. economy has been booming for three years. The boom during this period was largely a bubble. The position of the US dollar is actually moving lower. But the U.S. stock market is doing something different. ”

Fren nodded and said, "That's true." The difference between the U.S. economy's consumer index and the economic index has become wider. The ratio of the two has been reduced to 0.81, compared to 0.95 in the same period last year. This shows that last year's domestic consumption supported the U.S. economy, but now it is clear that domestic consumption levels are no longer able to support the stock market. ”

This index was proposed by Neil himself. The way of calculating is complicated, and Link doesn't understand it.

But what the two said, Link understood: "Are you saying that there is a bubble in the U.S. stock market?"

"The U.S. stock market has been supported by financial easing over the past year, but there are signs of it. It is possible that the Fed will raise the overnight interest rate. If there is a rate hike, there will be a lot of volatility in the market that loses support. ”

Neil said, smiling, and said, "Teresa and I both think that time is the best time to make a move. Maybe we can successfully take a stake in a few of the companies that we have already selected. ”

Link didn't hear his subtext. But Flon heard it. He was a little unsure and asked Neil, "Neil, you're saying there's going to be a big downward correction in the stock market?"

Neil nodded, "That could be the best outcome." ”

A sharp downward correction in the stock market is still the best result, if the result is a little worse, wouldn't it be a stock market crash?

Link frowned and asked, "Neil, are you sure of your judgment?"

"Pretty much sure. I've been researching quite a few cases lately. I think the Fed will probably raise rates between June and September. And the rate hike will be larger, and then the monetary tightening policy will be shifted. I think you know what happens. ”
