Chapter 639: 100 million is not enough, then 10 billion

This year's Forbes Fortune List is what many people are looking forward to. Because there will be a very special change in this year's wealth list.

The vast majority of those who follow the list are speculating that a yellow man will become the world's richest man for the second time this year, and that this yellow man's wealth will reach the top of the list with the highest personal wealth in history.

This result has made many Caucasian people a little uncomfortable, especially Americans.

In the past, the world's richest man fell next to the throne, mostly because the assets of the richest white man appeared because of the sudden increase in the stock assets of a certain person, and in a year to two, this throne will soon return to the hands of white people. But this time, they felt hanging.

Link Hans's assets are very strange. His assets are not operated on capital, nor on stocks. Most of his assets are tangible assets.

When Link entered the list of the world's top 400 richest people in his first year, there was a big leap forward every year, and the number of assets rose in a straight line every year, and there was no fluctuation. And his assets increase by a significant amount of cash assets every year. This is unmatched by other rich people.

Once Link Hans, a yellow man, sits on this throne this time, unless an invisible rich man suddenly appears, it will be difficult to oust him from that position.

This doesn't really matter to ordinary people, who is the richest man in the world. But for some people who discriminate against color, it can be quite unbearable.

So when Forbes magazine announced on its official website: the wealth list ranking has been determined, and the results will be announced in two days. More people are following this list than in previous years. Everyone is waiting for it.

Link didn't have time for those things.

He arrives at Jenna Carlos' new home. It is a detached house with a front and back yard.

When he entered the courtyard, Alan sat on the steps in front of the door in a daze.

Seeing him walk in, Alan looked up at him.

He walked over and crouched down in front of Allen and said, "You're still hesitating?"

Alan looked at it, nodded and said, "Yes." I don't want to leave here. My friends are in several neighborhoods around. I don't know what to do. ”

Link touched his head and said, "Friends here don't stop being friends just because you're gone. And, you'll meet more friends later. ”

Perhaps hearing a noise outside, Jenna Carlos appeared at the door: "Mr. Hans, you are here. Please come in!"

Lynk picked up Allen and walked into the house together.

In the house, Ames and a middle-aged woman were already inside.

The woman was a lawyer who had come to help them with the legal issues of custody transfer. Jenna Carlos has signed all the required documents. Just wait for Link to sign.

Link looked at the document and picked up the pen. He looked at Alan with a blank face again, and signed all the documents.

After that, they went to the relevant civil affairs department to go through all the formalities, because there was a father-son relationship. Link doesn't have any bad track record and has a complete family. In addition, Link also has enough income to raise his children.

The most important thing is that both the person who wants custody and the existing custody agree to it, so the procedure is not difficult.

After completing the formalities, Link sent Alan back to Jenna Carlos' house first. He took the child to the swing in the backyard and sat down, saying, "Alan, I know you can't afford to be here." However, we are father and son. We should live together. ”

Alan rocked the swing and whispered, "But, are we going to leave soon?"

"You can stay here for another three days, and during those three days, you can say goodbye to your friends. And tell them about the new contact details. I'll pick you up again in three days. ”

"Really?" Alan fixed the swing and turned his head to look at him. "Can I really stay here for three days?"

"Of course it's true. Link made this decision because he could see that the kid might still have something he couldn't let go. "But I'll send two men to protect you. ”

"Protect me?"

Link didn't intend to tell him about the darkness of the world at this time.

He smiled and said, "Yes." You know, I'm rich. And I'm very good, I can beat five big men by myself. So some of the villains who want to take money from me can't beat me, and they may start with you and your younger siblings. Although that's unlikely. But I can't be unguarded, because I'm not hurt like any of you. He paused and said. "They won't interfere with you, though. Just help me protect you. ”

Alan didn't quite understand what he said, but he had heard of kidnappings or something. He nodded and said, "I see." I'll be careful. But can you really hit five?" he said at the end, his eyes lit up.

Link smiled and said, "If the weaker ones are a little weaker, I can beat ten." Five, refers to the strong man in the gym. ”

The adoration in Allen's eyes almost became substantial: "Is it kung fu? I heard that kung fu is very powerful." Can you teach me?"

"Absolutely. ”

A haze flashed in Link's eyes. This child's body, let alone practicing kung fu, is dangerous for strenuous exercise. Allen's congenital heart disease, although not very serious, is usually not life-threatening. But it was always a ticking time bomb, and because of his heart problems, it could affect the function of other organs, and even cause complications.

Congenital heart disease cannot be treated in a conventional way, and with current medicine, the best way is to replace the heart. It's just that after changing the heart, most people can only have a lifespan of about 20 years, and that is not really a healthy person. Antiretroactive medications need to be taken every day.

Fortunately, the doctor said that if it were not for strong stimulation and overload exercise, his illness would not have been fatal. It's just that the older you get, the more pressure your heart has. The higher the risk. If it is not life-threatening, doctors do not recommend a heart replacement.

What he hopes most is that through minimally invasive surgery, Allen's heart can be like a healthy person, without worrying about the problem one day.

After making an appointment with Allen, Link talked to Jenna Carlos again, and finally agreed that he would come back to pick up Allen in three days, but he would have a few bodyguards nearby to protect him.

Jenna Carlos knew that Link had been assassinated, and now the outside world does not know that Alan is Link's son. But today, a reporter has already photographed Link traveling with them. Allen's identity may have been guessed.

Link told Jessica on the plane back to Washington that Alan would not be going home with him today.

When he returned home. Before the break, he talked to Jessica in bed about Alan's condition: "Jenner took good care of him and made him very optimistic about life. As long as this attitude is maintained, it will be of great benefit to his condition. However, I was always worried about him. ”

Jessica put her arms around his waist and leaned against his chest, comforting, "I don't think there's anything to worry about. You're not saying he's not in a bad situation right now? We can try to make him happy. Now the technology is advancing very fast, especially the biological technology is developing very fast, maybe in a few years medicine will be able to solve this problem. ”

Link nodded and said, "Of course I hope so." And maybe I can do something about it. ”

Jessica looked up at him and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to expand the hospital in Fox a little bit more. and set up a cardiology institute at Fox. ”

"Fox is too small to appeal to a doctor with great abilities!"

"Then smash it with money!" Link knew she was right. But Alan would later live in Ozette, with Fox being the nearest city. "If 100 million is not enough, it will be a billion, and if a billion is not enough, it will be 10 billion. I don't believe they're going to want more research funding. ”

Jessica rolled her eyes and said, "If you do that, you'll only raise a batch of moths." And get nothing. She paused and said. "I think you can start by poaching some famous doctors to work at Fox Hospital. Of course, you have to provide them with a good enough appeal. For example, research funding and research hardware. It's the same money, but that's more targeted. ”

Link laughed and said, "That's what I meant that." ”

Jessica laughed and said, "But I just heard a nouveau riche proclamation!"

"I'm a nouveau riche!" Link said with a sullen grin. "And I can afford to talk like that. ”

"I'm just worried that your money is being spent, but it's not going to be there. Jessica suggested. "Maybe you can set up a special fund and announce your goals to the world first. Then find a few authorities in cardiology and set up a professional research institute according to their requirements. Funding and hardware are in place step by step. I think that's more appealing. ”

Link nodded and said, "I'll ask Morris to announce the establishment of the fund tomorrow." What do you think of five hundred million dollars a year?"

"That's not much. I think you can set up a long-term plan. Long-term planning is more desirable. For example, the target for the total investment in the number of years. ”

"Like 10 billion?"

Link has a lot of money, and Jessica knows it best. Even if it's $10 billion a year, Link can't afford it, let alone a long-term goal.

She smiled and said, "It can also be 20 billion or 30 billion." As long as you can afford it!"

Link thought for a moment and said, "Then set a small goal." One billion dollars a year to provide free treatment to economically disadvantaged heart disease patients around the world. If a billion is not enough, I will reinvest. ”

"That's a good idea. You can even pay for their transportation to Fox, as long as there are enough cases, making it easier to attract young doctors. That's a huge pool of talent. But if you're going to provide them with free treatment, I think you can work with other hospitals to get more doctors involved in the program. ”

Link thought for a moment and said, "After establishing Fox Hospital and the research institute, we will cooperate with other hospitals." ”

If you work with other hospitals now, Fox Hospital will be much less attractive.
