Marvel: Superman's Survival Guide

Chapter 51 Shareholding

Tony Stark did not disappoint Link's hope. He announced in public that he would close the weapons department of Stark Industries. Obadiah Stane was shocked and hurried to take remedial measures, but it was of no avail.

The stock market reacted the fastest. Someone immediately began to sell Stark Industries' stocks. Jessica was also shocked.

Their foundation was run on the dividends of Stark Industries' stocks. She immediately turned to look at Link, who was actually very happy.

"Dear, our stocks..." Jessica asked immediately.

"Don't worry, I sold them a long time ago, and I am shorting Stark Industries' stocks. I must have made a lot of money this time. It's worth celebrating. You call Tracy and I'll have dinner together tonight." Link stood up and rubbed his hands excitedly.

He didn't care about the money. This was a small achievement for him. Although he had the advantage of foresight, he was the one who did all the operations.

In the future, he didn't need to pay attention to the issue of money. He would directly hold Stark Industries' stocks. He made a lot of money this time. He might be able to become a shareholder and join the board of directors.

Jessica was stunned after hearing this and asked, "How did you come up with this?"

"This is a secret, don't ask anymore, let's think about where to eat tonight, and then wait for Stark Industries' stock to fall!" Link didn't say it, after all, this matter is not easy to explain.

Jessica nodded, then took out her mobile phone and called Tracy.

...

Link has not received a call from Coulson, but that's right, after all, Stark lives in Los Angeles, Stark Industries is there, and his Stark Tower has not been completed yet!

Tony Stark is not here in New York at all, so it's better not to use himself. Link watched Stark Industries' stock continue to fall, and he was ready to close his position at any time and return the stock to the financial institution. This is a routine operation of short selling.

Sell high and buy low, the difference in the middle is his profit. He has sold more than 14 billion US dollars worth of stocks before, and can earn more than half of the profit.

It was just a large amount of interest paid. His total assets could reach more than 10 billion. He bought Stark Industries' shares at the lowest point, but he only bought 10% of the shares.

Holding 5% of the shares of a listed company requires public disclosure of shareholder information. Link has no job, but he has a charity fund, which means public disclosure of the charity fund information.

When Link completed all the operations, Coulson's call came, "Lin, you really surprised me. You actually became a shareholder of Stark Industries?"

"It's not me, it's my charity fund." Link corrected, "What's wrong?"

"Can you come to Los Angeles?" Coulson asked, "I need you here."

"Okay, I can go, after all, Stani is going to hold a board meeting, and Jessica will be there." Link was going to go.

Stark Industries evaporated more than 100 billion in market value at once. Link bought at the lowest point, spending only nearly 9 billion, just reaching a 10% shareholding ratio.

However, the shares were held in the name of the charity foundation, so Jessica, as the head of the foundation, had to attend the board meeting.

The two had already booked their flights, and Link estimated that Coulson would look for him.

After Link and Jessica checked into the hotel in Los Angeles, Jessica was a little nervous and asked, "Lin, what should I do when I attend?"

"Put the interests of the foundation first, and you can say that the operation of the foundation will rely on the profits of Stark Industries in the future." Link said, "You can temporarily support Stani."

"For the time being?" Jessica didn't quite understand.

"Yes, temporarily, you don't have to worry about other things. This is their internal struggle for power. It has nothing to do with us. They will decide the winner. Anyway, it's just a vote." Link comforted her, "Come back and talk if you have something to say."

"Okay, I'll try." Jessica took a deep breath and cheered herself up.

The two rested early. The next day, Jessica took the hotel car to the headquarters of Stark Industries, while Link went to see Coulson.

"Hey, long time no see." Link shook hands with Coulson, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Stark escaped by himself, and we are very interested in how he escaped." Coulson said.

Link raised his eyebrows and asked, "Haven't you been keeping an eye on Stark?"

"That's how I was recruited. Why didn't you take any action after he was kidnapped?"

Coulson said helplessly, "We didn't expect it either. After all, he was going to the US military base. Who knew he would be kidnapped?"

"We didn't dare to search in a big way afterwards. It was easy to cause misunderstandings at that time."

Link heard it and it was exactly what he thought. He said, "There is something wrong with this matter. It is impossible to succeed without accurate intelligence and escorted by the army."

"I have been operating Stark Industries' stocks recently. I found that the stock did not fall sharply after Stark disappeared. This is very abnormal."

"Unless you know it in advance and make a layout, it won't be like this."

Coulson understood it as soon as he heard it and asked, "Do you suspect that there is a problem within Stark Industries?"

"I think it's that Stani. Otherwise, no one can stabilize the stock price." Link said, "And if Stark gets into trouble, he will be the one who benefits the most, and he is also the only one who can know Stark's itinerary."

"You're right. This matter needs to be reported to the director." Coulson immediately took out his phone and called Nick Fury. The two talked on the phone for a long time, while Link walked aside and lit a cigarette.

His idea was very simple. On the one hand, he wanted to show his value, and on the other hand, he wanted to avoid fighting as much as possible. After all, Iron Man's armor was too thick, and his pistol was useless, but he could use a sniper rifle.

This would have to wait until the other party opened the armor. If it could be avoided, he would try to avoid fighting himself. Link had been holding this idea.

Coulson hung up the phone, then came to Link and said, "Well, the director asked you to investigate Stani, and I will continue to approach Stark."

"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible." Link nodded, "But I may need some equipment. Is there a branch here?"

"Yes, I'll take you there first." Coulson waved his hand and asked Link to get in the car.

The two soon arrived at the Los Angeles branch, which was also a building. SHIELD was indeed wealthy and powerful. However, it was also true that New York and Los Angeles were international cities on the east and west coasts, so it was necessary for them to each establish a branch.
