Chapter 221 - Look to the universe, Johnny

The next day, after the aunt finished cleaning the yard, Huang Yuan lay on the beach chair and basked in the sun.

At this time, Johnny, the company's financial director, came to report on his work.

"Boss, these are the company's two quarterly financial reports for the first half of this year. Please take a look."

Johnny, the loyal financial butler, handed a thick document to Huang Yuan.

He took over and opened the financial report. Every page on it was filled with a lot of data. Huang Yuan threw it to the ground without saying a word.

Johnny was stunned, first he secretly glanced at Huang Yuan's face, and then suddenly realized after thinking for a second.

He quickly said: "Boss, the company's total net profit in the first half of this year was US$181 billion, and now the company's valuation has reached US$2360 billion."

"If you were willing to take the company public, the total value could easily exceed the $4000 billion mark."

"At the same time, you secretly acquired the group shares of major giants according to your wishes. Now the total valuation of the shares you own has reached 3700 billion US dollars."

"The most outstanding ones, such as Stark Group, you have increased your stake to 31.24%."

"Your equity holdings in Lex Group have increased to 10.84%"

"Quinn Group increased its holdings to 9.81%"

"Code Industrial increased its holdings to 13.29%"

"The rest of the company's shares are also continuing to make profits, and now the annual dividends can bring you at least $120 billion in net income."

After hearing this, Huang Yuan asked: "Is there no resistance to the acquisition by Stark and Lex Group?"

Johnny was stunned and said: "Yes, how did you know."

Huang Yuan chuckled. This was Tony Stark and Lex Luthor selling their face and trying to tie him into the profit chariot.

Otherwise, with the capabilities of the two of them, if they don’t want equity spillover, there are ways to solve it.

"Then, is it because Wayne Group still refuses to sell its shares?" Huang Yuan asked again.

Johnny nodded and frowned: "The boss is wise, Wayne Group is now fully repurchasing all market shares."

"According to gossip from my colleagues in the industry, the Wayne family is preparing to delist and privatize."

Huang Yuan raised his eyebrows. With the market value of Wayne Group, if it wants to delist and privatize, the amount of funds required is not a small amount.

"Where did he get so much money?" Huang Yuan asked.

Although the Wayne family is rich, if you want a large listed group to delist and privatize, the funds that need to be paid are not simply market value.

"No, boss, this may be because you didn't understand."

Johnny said seriously: "Since the last time Gotham City was completely destroyed by Atlantis, everyone thought that the foundation of Wayne Group was gone."

"At that time, Wayne Group's stock price plummeted, and many people thought that Wayne Group was going to be finished."

"That's when Bruce Wayne started actively repurchasing equity and even received the original equity from the co-founders."

Huang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that people from Atlantis told me later that they would send a team with construction equipment to support the reconstruction of Gotham City."

Johnny nodded and said, "Yes, Wayne Group has various factories in nearby major cities and suburbs, and can fully afford the infrastructure construction of a city."

"In addition, the new government officials in Gotham City support Wayne Group, so they won most of the projects built in Gotham City in one fell swoop." "Huh, I'm afraid other competitors will get lower profits. Project?" Huang Yuan asked calmly.

"Yes, boss, including us." Johnny said helplessly: "After all, Gotham used to have the shadow of Wayne Group everywhere, so they occupy too much favorable geographical location and people."

Huang Yuan immediately said: "What a good move to remove the firepower, and what a good move to take advantage of the east wind to gain momentum. Now the scale of Wayne Group has expanded by more than five times, right?"

"If I guess correctly, at least 70% of Gotham City's infrastructure and other facilities are subsidiaries of Wayne Group, right?"

Johnny immediately replied: "Yes, the valuation and scale of Wayne Group have expanded at least eight times compared to before the Atlantis War. The group's valuation has reached 2430 billion US dollars."

"Not surprisingly."

Huang Yuan chuckled and said: "My war with Atlantis almost helped him clean up more than [-]% of Gotham's deep-rooted old forces."

"He was able to easily control New Gotham City this time, largely because of me."

"And this guy doesn't even give me a piece of the pie, good guy."

Huang Yuan narrowed his eyes and said: "As expected of a tiger with no son, his father Thomas Wayne used city construction to become one of the controllers of Gotham, and now Bruce is even more so."

After speaking, he laughed twice.

Johnny on the side trembled all over, and the boss's laughter made him feel a strong chill.

"Okay, let's continue to implement the previous policies and strategies. The core of the company is to promote the products developed by Fastos."

"Give him whatever he wants, and there is no upper limit on funding."

Johnny thought for a while and said, "Boss, I won't question your policy and strategy, but we can definitely increase the profit of the products."

"The profit margin you gave us is too small. Our products are at least ten to 20 years ahead of similar products on the market, but our profits are similar to theirs."

"This is really a waste of Professor Fastos' hard research."

"You can definitely make more profits and then invest more of them in research. This is the correct business cycle."

Huang Yuan glanced at Johnny, and then said: "Johnny, your vision is still about money and profits. I don't blame you."

"Boss?" Johnny breathed a sigh of relief.

"My purpose is not entirely to make money, but to pave the way for the company's products."

Huang Yuan stood up and said slowly: "Our current products cover all walks of life. Due to technical and price reasons, we can quickly occupy the market and squeeze out the market share of other products."

"If the price is high, we can only serve so many people."

"My purpose is to improve the technological level and living standards of all mankind."

"You have also seen that there are more lives outside the earth, and their technology has far exceeded that of our earth."

"If we are still limiting the speed and level of our own technological development for these reasons, then we will eventually lock up our own development because of capital."

"I must be this icebreaker, so that we can bring mankind to a complete high-speed development and catch up with the level of alien civilizations."

"Even, for this goal, I can sacrifice the company in my hands."
