Chapter 129: Invitation
Ling Xiao looked at Pepper with a surprised face, shook hands, and said in a greeting: "Miss Potts, it's really surprising, how come you are in New York, you are not in Los Angeles ...... Mr. Stark."
"No way." Pepper glanced at Ling Xiao, and then said with a little helplessness: "Obaday had an accident, so Tony and I have to go back to New York to deal with the company's affairs." It's Ling you, you are accompanied by beauties everywhere! ”
"You're mistaken, Miss Potts." Ling Xiao hurriedly pulled Xu Liang and Zhou Qian to her side and helped her introduce: "This is Miss Xu, this is Miss Zhou, they are all my friends in New York, and I have received their help in some places in New York this time, so I took advantage of the time to go out for a walk." Ah Liang, Ah Qian, this is Stark Industries' ......"
"CEO." Pepper reminded Ling Xiao with a little reserve.
"Wow, Miss Potts, congratulations." Ling Xiao's mouth opened wide in surprise, it seemed that this incident really surprised him.
"Hello, Miss Potts!" Xu Liang and Zhou Qian were a little surprised, Ling Xiao actually knew the CEO of Stark Industries, which was really unexpected.
"Hello!" Pepper shook hands with Xu Liang and Zhou Qian successively, and then said with a straight face: "Mr. Ling, I don't know when you will go back to Los Angeles, before that, can we find a time to talk?" ”
"I'm supposed to be the day after tomorrow, and the time before that is free, Miss Potts, it's up to you to make arrangements." Ling Xiao knew what Pepper wanted to do with him, but now he didn't need to be as cautious as before, and now he had enough money to gain a foothold in this world.
"Alright, I'll call you tomorrow." Pepper nodded at Ling Xiao and said, "Okay, don't disturb your time with the two young ladies, goodbye, Mr. Ling." Oh, by the way, your consumption today can be recorded in the accounts of Stark Group, goodbye. ”
"Goodbye." Ling Xiao watched Pepper leave his back in a hurry, rubbing his eyebrows, he was thinking about how to deal with this matter.
"Ling, I didn't expect you to know someone like Miss Potts!" Xu Liang was a little surprised and asked in a low voice beside Ling Xiao, and Zhou Qian also had the same expression.
"It's just some business dealings." Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, turned around and smiled at the two girls, and said, "Okay, you all heard it, people said that today's consumption is recorded in the accounts of the Stark Group, so don't be polite." ”
"It's not good." Although Xu Liang and Zhou Qian were a little impatient, the inherent reserve of Oriental people made them hesitate.
"You're welcome." Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "This little money is nothing in the eyes of others, and it is all my favor, if you really don't buy anything, it will make them mind." ”
"Okay." Xu Liang and Zhou Qian glanced at each other, and they could see the flame of excitement in each other's eyes.
Standing at the window, looking out at the beautiful night, thinking about what to do with Tony Stark's injury, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Walking over, opening the door, not surprisingly, it was Zhou Qian who appeared outside the door, she glanced at Ling Xiao deeply, bit her lip, and then stepped into the room, and the door was slammed shut.
The next morning, Ling Xiao got into the car sent by Pepper to pick him up and went straight to Stark Tower.
Tony Stark lives in a mansion on the edge of Malibu Beach in Los Angeles. But because the company is headquartered in New York, he also spends a lot of time in New York, so the top five floors of Stark Industries have been converted into his personal office and residence.
Ling Xiao took the elevator to the top floor of the building under the guidance of the bodyguard, and Ling Xiao was still very curious about the place where a billionaire lived.
The decoration and decoration here still looked very beautiful and tasteful, but the moment Ling Xiao saw Pepper, he quickly shook his head.
Although Tony is a genius in technology, he seems to be an idiot in life, and he will not learn to take care of himself, which is comfortable and in line with the owner's wishes, and this kind of decoration is naturally due to Pepper.
It was once said that Tony Stark would not have survived without Pepper because he could not even remember his social security account.
"Miss Pepper, why are you alone, Mr. Stark?" Ling Xiao looked at Pepper with some curiosity, she naturally didn't come to see a doctor for herself, and it would only be Tony Stark who was in trouble.
Pepper looked at Ling Xiao and sighed slightly, and said with some emotion: "You really still know, Mr. Ling." ”
Ling Xiao was slightly stunned, he realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, shook his head, Ling Xiao could only smile bitterly and said: "Mr. Stark's physical condition, although I haven't carefully diagnosed it, I have also seen his face with my own eyes, plus what you said when you came to the pharmacy last time, I have roughly guessed what is going on." ”
"That's fine." Pepper smiled slightly bitterly and said, "Tony, come over later, we'll talk about the specific condition later." ”
Saying that, Pepper's face turned grim, and he said to Ling Xiao: "Mr. Ling, I know that you have some Stark Industries shares in your hand, I hope you can buy them, I hope this number can satisfy you." ”
As she spoke, Pepper wrote down a number on a piece of paper, then folded it and handed it to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao opened the piece of paper with his hand, and the number 50000000 was written on it, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh a little, those stocks in his hand, if it was before Stark Industries had an accident, would be worth at least about 40 million.
Now Pepper wants to buy it back for 50 million, which is too underestimating Lingxiao, underestimating Stark Group, with Tony Stark, there is no problem for Stark Industries' stock price to return to its original level, and there is even a lot of room for appreciation.
If it were an ordinary person, he would be able to get an extra $10 million, and he would have agreed to it, I have to say that Pepper is still quite qualified as the new top CEO, but she met Ling Xiao this time.
Re-folding the piece of paper, Ling Xiao pushed it back, shook his head at Pepper, and said with a chuckle: "Miss Potts, I am very confident in the prospects of the group under the leadership of Mr. Tony Stark, so I plan to hold them for a long time, and I have no intention of selling these stocks in the short term." ”
"Really?" Looking at the look on Ling Xiao's face, Pepper took the piece of paper back without showing a look, looking at Ling Xiao's eyes with a hint of surprise, she didn't know whether Ling Xiao really wanted to keep the stock in her hand, or if she felt that the price she offered was too low.
Although public opinion is very optimistic about Stark Industries after Tony thinks he is Iron Man, many shareholders in the stock market do not buy it.
In their opinion, it is one thing to have a high level of science and technology, and another thing to achieve industrial sales. Although Obadistein is a very poor person, his business operations are still very commendable, and people are not optimistic about the playboy Tony Stark after Obadistein's death, especially since his new CEO is still his former assistant, so Stark Industries' stock price has not been able to rise.
"Huh!" Ling Xiao waved his hand and said to Pepper: "Miss Potts, you think too much, I really want to hold Stark Industries' shares for a long time, you also know how high the tax rate is in the United States, instead of cashing out the stock and being charged a lot of taxes, I might as well collect some dividends every year." You can rest assured, if there is any internal affairs entanglement, I will fully support Mr. Stark. Although my shares are less than 20 million. ”
"Okay." Pepper took a deep breath, nodded, her eyes flashed, and she said, "Mr. Ling, you have already said so, then I won't force it." But I heard that you're about to be in your senior year, what, are you interested in interning at Stark Group next year? ”
"Oh!" Ling Xiao chuckled lightly and said, "I don't know how much salary Miss Potts plans to give me?" ”
