Chapter 150: Livermore

Terra Calendar 1590.6.27.

Afternoon: 17:20.

Faroe Island Vogue District.

John Giovanni was sitting upright in his office chair, a spacious, elegant office on the top floor of Giovanni's corporate headquarters. This office is exquisitely designed, full of authority and luxury. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow plenty of natural light inside, while overlooking the city.

Giovanni's dress is very in line with the image of a business elite, he wears a well-matched business suit, it is a slim dark blue suit, the fabric of the suit is delicate and smooth, exuding a noble texture, the shirt is a white as snow French collar shirt, the neckline is neat, the cuffs are neat. On his wrist he wears a delicate watch with a faint smell of men's perfume.

It can be seen that Giovanni is a very delicate Mr. Vampire.

"Giovanni, this is the relevant certification of other analyst institutions, according to their calculations, Longn is the most secure target for capital expansion, their pre-tax income from [natural gas contracts] with Addison is as high as 122 million dollars, they are the largest natural gas seller in the northern region, mainly in Massachusetts, if you want to expand your assets, Longn is undoubtedly the best investment target."

Giovanni patiently listened to Hayden's report sitting across from him, and he was slightly surprised by Hayden's choice of the target for capital expansion.

"Longen is now at 89.90 per share [base asset] and I predict he will break through again within a week." Hayden reported to Giovanni one by one, not paying the slightest attention to the surprise in the other party's red eyes.

"What a surprise to me, Hayden, I thought you wouldn't let me choose Ron, I thought you'd go out of your way to avoid suspicion." Giovanni knew that Hayden held a large amount of Longne's assets, so he felt that Hayden would not introduce Longen to him.

Facing Giovanni's slightly inquiring gaze, Hayden's mind flickered back to the conversation he had with the blonde young man the other day.

The end result of that conversation was that the blonde young man left first, leaving him alone in the coffee shop and thinking for a long time.

The blond-haired and golden-eyed young man just asked him to join Longen Company in the list of foreign capital introduced to Giovanni, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, when talking about Longen Company, he could always feel that the other party was pointing at him, so that he always paid attention to Longen Company and his own equity in Longen Company.

Even if the other party didn't say it explicitly, Hayden could still feel what the blonde young man was trying to say, and what the other party really wanted.

Hayden Frederick felt that he hadn't promised him anything, but his body, or ambition, had made him the choice he made today, and he introduced John Giovanni to the Long Company.

"Because it's a good fit for you, Giovanni. As the Bloodline, you always yearn for the so-called Eternal Night Realm, and the [Financial Beasts] of the financial assets in the possession of the Long Corporation, are very suitable for you, because they always create blowing snow and thick fog, and they want the world to be forever shrouded in the eternal night of their own making. Hayden replied to Giovanni's earlier question, and then added, "Of course, the decision-making power is always in your hands, and I am just a technical staff." ”

Giovanni didn't rush to make a decision, he waved his hand to signal Hayden to go out first, Hayden didn't say anything, got up and left the office, and after Hayden left, he once again focused on Hayden's financial report on Longen.

———— Longen reports————

Basic report: Long merged with Hughes Natural Gas two years ago, completely monopolizing the [natural gas series thaumaturgy] in the northwest of Eddy, and in the process of trying to pursue further development, Long chose a strategy of diversification. The company now owns and operates a variety of businesses, including natural gas pipelines, power plants, pulp and paper production, water plants and network services. The company also reaps greater benefits through sales-related contracts.

Long's stock rose just 311 percent from 1586 to the end of 1589, just above the average of the S&P 500 (the S&P 500, which is market-capitalization-weighted and more reflective of the actual importance of a company's stock on the stock market).

Long's shares are already worth 86.90 per share [underlying asset], and their market value is as high as 60 billion dollars, which is 70 times Long's revenue and 6 times its book value. At the same time, Longen was named the most innovative company in the whole of Addison in a survey by Fortune magazine.

Extraordinary Reporting:

【Financial Beast: Jotunn Giant (JTUNN)】

The [Financial Beast] inherited the most orthodox form of the [Financial Street] Concept Gathering, the Giant.

It is called the "Great Eater", which probably gives the impression of an astonishing appetite, but it is also true, it has formed its own [crown] on its head, and this [crown] is blessed in the direction of high-risk regulatory areas - [economic overheating] (excessive expansion and excessive growth of economic activity, beyond sustainable levels, leading to a series of adverse effects and problems in the economy, it can stimulate [financial street] to form a huge distortion field and ultra-small [ether tide], thus distorting the present world by absolute violence]. )

Other Information: ·······

——————————————

"Big Eater ······"

Giovanni's eyes couldn't help but focus on the picture of the Jotun giant, the giant in the photo is huge and majestic, this giant's characteristics belong to the same species as the most famous one in [Financial Street] now, it is the same species as the giant Loki.

Giovanni's fingers rubbed over the magnificent watch he wore on his right hand, which looked very delicate, the case of the watch was made of selected white gold, which had been delicately polished and engraved to show a stunning luster; The case may be encrusted with sparkling diamonds or other precious stones, while the dial is a work of art with enamelled patterns or delicate ornamentation; The hands and tick marks are precise and meticulous to ensure the accuracy of the time.

"Count the Earl", this is the name of the watch, and at the same time, it is also the name of the extraordinary armament.

While Giovanni touched his watch, the Soul Grandet stored inside the watch floated out of it, and it had two parts, one of which was in the image of a sturdy cow with fierce eyes, symbolizing the "bull market" (a market where stock prices are rising). The image of the other part is of a ferocious bear, symbolizing a "bear market" (a market where stock prices fall). Both parts are decorated with metal and gemstones, giving it a gorgeous and powerful feel.

Unlike other vampire weapons, the Count Count is a vessel, a product of animism, and the most unexpected work of the Piercing Prince, so to speak, its birth was purely accidental.

[Grande], this so-called "vampire" image is quite comical, and among the huge human [deeds], it is most likely to be mixed with some fragments of the Mimu that have been distorted to the point of strangeness, and [Grande] is the [Soul] born from countless miscompiled fragments of the Mimu, which has been very different from its original image.

Moreover, the ability of [Grande] is also very strange, and it has three main abilities, namely:

[Market Insight]: The ability to predict trends in the financial markets, which is very useful for investing and stock trading. The bull part is able to predict which stock prices will rise, while the bear market part is able to predict which stock prices will fall.

[Financial manipulation]: The ability to add value or decrease the value of the user's money. In the "Ox" state, he can double his gold by touching, but he will consume a large amount of core health; In the "bear" state, he can cut his money in half by touching, thus providing energy to the user.

[Risk and Reward]: If the user of Count Earl decides to invest, it is able to use its ability to predict the return on the investment.

Compared with the traditional [Soul], the ability of [Grande] is not made by a father, and many people in the [Secret Alliance] doubt whether the [Count Count] is the work of the Piercing Prince. After all, this ability doesn't look like a vampire no matter how you look at it, and the more you look at it, the more you think this guy is Addisi's species······

Most of the clans of the [Secret Alliance] don't like the [Count Count], so the Giovanni clan who immigrated to the Addison Federation has a special fondness for this hand expression, and the other vampires don't even look at this bastard's extraordinary armament.

When [Grande] appeared, Giovanni summoned his [Financial Card], and the [Financial Card] in his hand was a third-level platinum card, which meant that he already had the [Financial Beast], and only financiers who had the right to summon [Financial Beast] were eligible to obtain the Platinum Card.

"Virtual Disk Expand!"

Giovanni raised the platinum card in his hand and sent it to the void in front of him like a key, and then twisted it, and one by one gorgeous and abnormal magic circles unfolded, and then one by one virtual pop-up windows kept popping up. At the forefront, a huge index disk projection appeared in front of him.

A virtual order refers to a platform or account that simulates stock trading and is used to simulate and practice stock trading without using real funds. Virtual orders usually provide a trading environment similar to the real stock market and real-time market data, allowing users to experience the process and strategies of stock trading, but using virtual currencies or virtual stocks to trade.

"Introduced Longen Company." Giovanni whispered.

And as his words fell, all kinds of data were put into the virtual disk, and after the import was completed, the [Grande] behind him began to exert its strength.

[Risk & Reward: Activation!] ]

"Moo-"

The part of the [Grande] representing the bull market raised its head, and the huge pupils were now straight and round, glowing red.

In the virtual intraday, Longen's stock began to deduce according to the data entered inexplicably, and soon, Longen's stock rose directly to 90.75 [underlying asset] per share at 86.90 [underlying assets].

Click-

The virtual disk suddenly collapsed like an overwhelmed glass.

Looking at the collapsed virtual disk, Giovanni whispered to himself:

"It's a big up."

[Grande] did not have any strange reactions, and the financial report of Longen Company was also clean.

It's time for me to get a [Giant], and in [Financial Street], Giants are always the transcendent beings who stand at the top. Giovanni thought to himself.

Then, he picked up the phone on his desk and began his own layout plan for Longen's company.

*************

The present Tórshan.

"Whew-"

The huge ship slowly approached the harbor, the azure waters shimmering like jewels in the sunlight, and the waves lapped against the docks of the harbor with a gentle sound.

"Mr. Lawrence, welcome to Tórshavn. As a member of Mayflower, we sincerely thank you for your presence and extend our warmest welcome to you. ”

Lawrence Livermore, who had just come off a luxurious private steamer, stretched out his hand and shook hands with the bloated ball-like and excited Mayflower Foundation members who walked in front of him.

"I'm ashamed to say that, as the president, this is the first time I've come to the Faro area for an inspection." Livermore said with a kind smile on his face.

"How can anyone blame you? You've made a lot of people excited to have come all the way from Addison, and by the way, Mr. Winston is still waiting for you! ”

"Well, let's hurry to Winston, I haven't seen him in two years."

Led by the obese members, Lawrence Livermore, president of the Mayflower Foundation, stepped into the most luxurious hotel in the region, the Tórshavn Grand Hotel, which sits atop a hill overlooking the city and spectacular natural landscapes. The hotel has modern and sophisticated rooms and suites in Terra, which are fully equipped and offer high-quality service and beautiful surroundings.

Here, Livermore meets with Winston Norton, the head of the Mayflower Foundation's Ario Alliance.

"It's been a long time."

When Winston saw Livermore, a stiff smile appeared on his poker-like face, which surprised the members who brought Livermore here, and he rarely saw Winston smile, although it was very unsightly.

"House, I have something to talk about with Livermore, so you can go out for a while." Winston quickly regained his usual poker face, and he commanded directly at the bloated House.

"Yes." House didn't say much, and left the place very consciously.

After House left, Livermore's breath, which had always maintained a kind and gentle image, instantly became decadent and lazy, his limbs became as soft as a slime, and the whole person leaned directly against the sofa behind him, as if he wanted to dissolve with it.

"You're getting to Youyang sooner than I expected." Winston didn't seem to be surprised by Livermore's appearance.

"There was some accident, someone noticed the situation in Longen's company." Livermore looked at the ceiling with empty eyes, and then he continued to say slowly, "There is another person who started to calculate the Long Company through the virtual disk, this guy is more interesting, and behind him is our dear 'angel round investor'." ”

While Livermore was speaking, a bright red card appeared out of thin air in his hand, if Xia Xiu was there, he would definitely be able to recognize it, this was [Jiang Demon], that is, a red card.

"Act III performer?" Winston said with a frown.

"Well, it's a bit of a crossover with us, but I used [Loki] to block his deduction, and our investors didn't interfere. Also, I've heard that the bodies of [Vampire Masquerade] and Piercing Gong have been sent to [Clock Tower], and that two vampires are staying there. ”

"Don't go overboard, we're in the finishing stages."

"Don't worry, I'll just take a look, after all, Long is my food, and [Loki] needs the strength of his brother."
