Rebirth of England

Chapter 56 His Royal Highness the Prince

"Of course, in addition to these acquisition conditions, INM Group has also put forward requirements for your operation after acquiring the Independent Newspaper Company. You must ensure the continued operation of the Independent Newspaper Company and assume corresponding responsibilities, otherwise the agreement will be invalid. Not only will you have to To return the company and compensation, we will also face lawsuits from the other party.”

These conditions are also the prerequisite for Barron to win the "Independent".

For INM Group, it is acceptable for them to be able to get rid of the burden of continuous losses such as "The Independent" and focus their funds and energy on other industries.

Moreover, compared to the doubts about the identity of the Russian businessman who was born in Klobo when Barron purchased the newspaper in his previous life, the INM Group faced doubts about the identity of the other party. Selling the newspaper to Barron, the British Duke, would There is no resistance at all.

However, even if they hope to get rid of the "Independent", a burden that continues to generate losses and related debts, they still need to make sure that Barron can take on the responsibility of running the newspaper after buying it, rather than just dealing with "The Independent". The Independent, a major national newspaper that once had many readers, is messing around.

"I can completely accept these conditions, Mr. Sheehan, and we can sign a contract with INM Group as soon as possible."

"Okay, Your Highness the Duke, I will confirm with INM Group immediately."

After Amber Sheen said this, she saw the young Duke in front of her showing a kind smile:

"After this incident, Mr. Sheehan, I have one more thing that I need to ask your opinion on."

"Do you have any other entrustments for us? Your Highness the Duke."

"It is true that there is another commission, but it is not for PwC, but for you, Mr. Sheehan."

"I?"

Amber asked in confusion.

"Yes, for you, Mr. Sheen, I am very satisfied with your ability in this acquisition. I have a position here. Would you consider accepting it?"

"Your Highness, come with me. Our investment company is upstairs."

"Your Excellency, please just call me William in private..."

"Okay, William, just call me Barron."

As he received more and more attention, Barron's schedule began to become tense. Just today during lunch, he took the time to be interviewed by a reporter from the "Guardian" - the topic was mostly about his acquisition of "The Independent" Action.

As agreed yesterday, today Prince William visited DS Investment Company located in Lloyds Building in the center of the Financial City.

The Lloyds Building is a landmark building in the City of London. It was the first major project completed by the famous Richard Rogers in Burren. Because the building looks like an alien mechanical monster, this building has the reputation of a "steel monster". say.

The interior of the Lloyd Building is also very unique. There is an open atrium in the middle of the main building, surrounded by a horse racing gallery. All major office spaces are arranged along the horse racing gallery.

The upper part of the atrium is an arched glass skylight that reaches a height of 72 meters from the lobby floor to the top of the atrium. There are two crisscrossing escalators in the hall, surrounded by metal decoration.

Each floor overlooks the spectacular atrium, which is equipped with escalators that connect internal traffic. It is also a place for communication between people on different floors, bringing vitality to the entire space.

DS Capital is located on the 10th floor of the building - the entire building has 14 floors in total, including 2 floors underground and 12 floors above ground. At first, the company only rented a few offices, but after Barron came here to see it, Daisy was asked to rent out all the remaining offices in the building that were still to be rented.

Currently, DS Capital has leased one-third of the entire floor, but less than half of it has been used.

At this time, Daisy's trading team has expanded to five people. Together with the rest of the office staff, the number of employees serving DS Capital has exceeded ten.

Prince William is most interested in securities investment. This may be because he has read articles or movies and TV shows that describe financial battles. After seeing that the trading scene was not as "intense" as he imagined, he revealed that A bit disappointed.

"Currently our investments are divided into futures and stocks. In terms of stocks, they are mainly technology stocks in the US stock market, mainly stocks in the Nasdaq market. There is a time difference between the United States and London, and trading has just begun."

Listening to Barron's introduction, William asked with some confusion:

"I heard that after the Internet bubble burst, didn't technology stocks fall sharply?"

"Yes, William, you are right, but you will never make money by following the crowd's footsteps when investing in stocks. Whether it is stocks or other securities, they are all cyclical. Only after a round of decline ends will the market start to start. The next uptick...I think it's about to start right now."

By stating his opinion so directly, Barron has no fear that the other party will follow suit. Let’s not talk about whether others really agree with Barron’s opinion. What if they follow the trend and invest in technology stocks?

Judging from Barron's previous experience, in the third quarter of this year, most technology stocks will experience another round of decline - although the magnitude this time will not be so large, unless he can accurately select stocks to avoid lightning, , otherwise blindly following the trend will most likely suffer losses in this wave.

Regarding these securities investments, it is obvious that Prince William is just watching the excitement. Speaking of which, since coming to DS Investment, he has not looked at the screen showing price trends as many times as he has looked at Daisy.

I'm afraid if Barron hadn't been there, he would have been tempted to ask for Daisy's phone number...

"By the way, Barron, you said last time that you made a fortune from short selling, can you tell me about it?"

"Of course, let's go to my office to talk."

Today, AirGate's stock price has fallen below $2 - from more than forty dollars to less than two dollars. Such a huge drop in such a short period of time has caused the company to be buried in lawsuits from angry investors.

Not only has the company's management changed, but because of the general market downturn, the company's liquidity has also been problematic, and no improvement has been seen so far.

From this time on, in response to this short sale, DS Capital has also begun to covertly buy stocks to close positions.

As they bought the stock, AirGate's stock price continued to fall, which shows the attitude of investors at this time.

Barron is not greedy either. Now that he has made enough profits, there is no need to eat all the fish heads and tails. The fattest fish body is enough for him to have a full meal.

Therefore, revealing the short selling to Prince William at this time will not affect the overall situation at all.

In this way, this afternoon, Barron took two or three hours to establish a friendship with Prince William. The two of them were not much different in age, and they had the same noble background, so they had more common topics.

Later, William and Barron became good friends and invited him to take time to play together at his school, or attend those interesting parties together...

From the chat, Barron also learned that William did have a girlfriend in college at this time, but it was not Cather - they were not very close yet - William's current girlfriend was a campus beauty in their school.

No wonder, this also solved his previous doubts.
