After Mephisto returned to the manor, he ignored the worried eyes of the little maid and locked himself in the study. Then he leaned on the chair that seemed large to him, emptied his mind, and used his ability to first remove those distracting thoughts. And sad emotions are temporarily sealed in the depths of the soul.

  He turned on a state of absolute calmness, and began to think about what he was going to face next.

  After entering a state of absolute calm, Mephisto first thought about the question: what will the death of his father Thomas bring to him?

  First of all, because father Thomas is only related to his one son, even if there is no will, the property will be automatically inherited by him.

  And the inheritance left to him by his father Thomas is not complicated. Except for the Spencer Manor, there is only one company. .

Chapter 12

  Tossoff is a large company covering technology, medicine, military and other industries. It was established by Thomas in 1939 in the United States.

  After the establishment of the company, it developed with the help of Thomas's contacts in the UK, and the real rise was due to the war. The company cooperated with the military in medicine and military industry, although it was not as good as Howard's company in military industry.

  But when it comes to medicine, it is Tossoff that comes out on top.

  Afterwards, the company's form became better and better, but after four years of development and changes, although the company became bigger and bigger, its internal form was ever-changing. The specific changes can be seen from the number of shares.

  At the beginning, the company was absolutely controlled by Thomas alone with 90% of the shares, and the remaining 10% of the shares were awarded to the company's management.

  Today, Thomas holds and as an inheritance, leaving only 48% of the shares to Mephisto, and most of the other shares are in the hands of others.

  And behind those people, they represent different forces: the US military, the British side, hostile companies, cooperative companies, and so on.

  Originally, because of Thomas' personal ability and the large number of shares held in his hands, he has always held the position of chairman without anyone questioning.

  But now that Thomas has passed away and Mephisto has inherited the shares, everything is different. The position of chairman is obviously going to be changed.

  Of course, Mephisto certainly cannot be the chairman of the board, but he can recommend someone to be the chairman, but he has to be voted by the directors, but because he is a minor, even if he holds a large number of shares, other shareholders are not expected to be will take it seriously.

  And that's what it is.

  On the top floor of the Tosford office building, a meeting is taking place at this time.

  The theme of the meeting was to vote for the new chairman of the Tosoff company, and Mephisto, who was the largest shareholder at this meeting, was on the list, but all he could do now was silence.

  As the election meeting of the new chairman, all those who are eligible to sit here are major shareholders, so everyone has the right to elect the chairman, and of course they do the same.

  However, Mephisto did not recommend candidates to participate in the competition for the position of chairman, so other shareholders except Mephisto had to explain their candidates one by one and persuade other shareholders to support.

  Just as he was showing his eloquence, Mephisto was sitting in his seat, listening to Hughes standing beside him introducing the forces behind the people present.

  After a speech that made Mephisto a little drowsy, combined with Hughes' introduction, Mephisto had a good understanding of the situation in front of him. All shareholders wanted the position of chairman, but in the end they had to rely on strength.

  There are only three companies that have the strength to obtain the position of chairman.

  One of them is the guy who holds the most shares in a single force, and the other is the US military force. As for the identity of the last force, it is interesting. It is Howard's Stark Industries.Because Mephisto did not recommend the candidate for the chairman, but had other plans, in the end, only the military and Howard were left to fight.

  Both parties seem to have their own goals, so they made great efforts to be the chairman.

  But the final result is very interesting. The number of votes supporting both sides is coincidentally the same and tied, so after this result, all shareholders turned their attention to Mephisto, who has been playing soy sauce, because in his hands There is one more vote.

  In the face of everyone's attention, Mephisto, who became the focus, not only was not nervous, but gave everyone a big smile.

  At this time, the representative of the military spoke first, but he did say to Hughes behind Mephisto, "Ms. Hughes, I hope you can represent Mr. Mephisto and support us!"

  The representative of Stark Industries was not to be outdone. Perhaps because of Howard's explanation, he found Mephisto, "Mr. Mephisto, I implore you to vote for us!"

  Under everyone's attention, Hughes did not react to the words of the military representative, but looked at Mephisto. While this behavior made the military representative face black, Stark's representative showed joy. .

  And everyone's eyes turned to Mephisto again, this time Mephisto didn't have to pretend to be stupid, I saw him look around at everyone, and then stood up pretending, "Cough~ Before casting this vote, I thought A decision is to be announced."

  "Represented by my guardian, Ms. Hughes, I am ready to transfer all the shares in Tosford Corporation that I own!"

  When Mephisto said this, there was an uproar.

  "What? Is he crazy? Selling shares!"

  "A child is a child, but Ms. Hughes really allows him to be so foolish!"

  "Yeah, this is total bullshit."

  The shareholders present, except for the military representatives and Stark representatives, all thought that Mephisto's decision was nonsense. The main reason for this was that the Tosford Company was on the rise at this time.

  If you hold shares, high dividends will be recorded every year, and each of them can't wait to increase their shares to get more dividends, so Mephisto's decision to sell shares is not only nonsense in their eyes, but also Silly.

  However, the military representatives and Stark representatives have different attitudes. The shares represent the right to speak. Everyone wants to increase the right to speak, but no one sells them for profit. Now they see hope in Mephisto.

  If one of the parties wins the shares of Mephisto, then the position of the corresponding chairman can be easily pocketed.

  For a time Mephisto became the focus of the meeting since its inception.

Chapter 13

  in the conference room

  Mephisto stared directly at those, as if the hungry wolf was staring at the fat-like eyes, and the owners of these eyes were shareholders who were eager to get some shares from him.

  If a company is profitable, everyone wants more shares in their hands. In that case, there will be more dividends at the end of the year. If this is an investment, it is an investment that can make a profit without losing money.

  Who can't live with money in this world, so after those shareholders learned that they could buy shares like him, they looked at Mephisto as if they wanted to eat him.

  Among these people, in addition to those shareholders who are purely for more dividends, the military representatives and Stark Industry representatives have the most eager eyes, because after the acquisition of Mephisto's shares, they brought The power behind them is not just more dividends, but the control of this company.

  Mephisto didn't have the heart to explain it to them. After waving to Hughes, he left his seat and came to the floor-to-ceiling window beside the conference room.

  The conference room is at the top of the building, so he stood at the window and looked out, and could see most of New York's scenery. As for today's meeting, it has nothing to do with him. The ending is already doomed. Just give it to Hughes!

  At this time, after he got up and left his seat, Hughes had taken out the prepared documents and distributed them to all the shareholders sitting in turn.

  Mephisto looked at the distant scenery. This was the first time he stood in his father's company building and looked at the scenery outside, but after today, this company has nothing to do with him!

  The 'transfer of shares' was the final decision made by Mephisto after his father Thomas died, after learning about all aspects of the information within half a month, combined with his future planning.

  Originally, according to his previous plan, he should enjoy the life of a rich man, then go to study a major in management or biology, and then wait until after graduation to enter his father's company, enter the medical department, and then develop his own plan.

  He thought about it all!

  He first has to organize a group of loyal researchers to develop a castrated version of the super soldier serum based on the serum in his hands, and then use this as a capital to cooperate with the military to establish a solid relationship, and then earn money At the same time, other research is carried out.

  After obtaining a certain status, get rid of his father's company, develop his own power, and then show his strengths, go to Africa to obtain such a thing to establish a research institute, or go to the Hellfire Club, contact mutants... .

  These were all carefully planned by him, but a sudden accident shattered his plan directly. The death of his father Thomas brought a devastating blow to his plan.

  Not only could he not grow up steadily under the blessing of Thomas, but he could not develop his own things with the help of the resources of the Tossoff Company. Without these, his plan was directly in danger of dying.

  Because now, apart from the Speipin Manor, the only thing he owns is a large number of shares in the Tosford Company, but these shares are in his hands and in the hands of his father Thomas.

  The latter can get the right to speak with the shares, but he is a five-year-old child, don't expect any right to speak, he can only guard the shares and wait for the annual dividend, and then he has to be wary of some malicious people. .

  After all, after all, he who inherited the estate and shares has become the only five-year-old rich man in New York and even the United States.

  Now Hughes and the little maid are afraid that he will be kidnapped as soon as he goes out, so he basically rarely goes out now, not for fear of accidents, but for trouble.

  But these are all temporary. The original plan was destroyed, and it would be good to re-create it. Today, half a month after his father passed away, Mephisto came on stage with his new plan!

  Many of his secrets require a force that belongs to him completely to handle them with confidence, so since he can't fully control the Tosford company, what's the use of this company?

  And although there is no big tree like his father Thomas to shield the wind and rain in front, but this does not mean that his small sapling cannot withstand the wind and rain. Thomas's words before his death gave Mephisto a great shock. Why did he With so many concerns, he can just let go and do what he wants to do.

  Just like today's decision, Mephisto turned to look at those shareholders. At this time, those who read fast among them have almost finished reading the document.

  Soon after everyone finished reading the documents, the conference room fell silent. After a long time, the military representative took the lead and said to Hughes, who was in charge of the following matters: "Ms. Hughes, I need to ask my superiors about the requirements in the documents. to give you an answer."

  After speaking, the person in charge of the military left his seat and went out to make a phone call, and then seemed to be driven by his behavior. Most of the remaining people made this request, and Hughes calmly agreed to their request.

  The reason for this is mainly because the additional conditions in the document are no longer up to their representatives, but they need to ask higher decision makers behind them.

  Most of the shareholders left, and there were only a few shareholders who had given up and Hughes who stayed here, waiting for those people to come back, and Mephisto had quietly left the conference room at this time.

  On the top floor of the Tosford Company, all rooms with telephones were occupied by shareholders, and calls were made from here one by one. .

Chapter 14

  The military representative was the first to connect because he was the first to make the request.

  After the call was connected, the first was a detailed explanation. The representative showed the style of a soldier and relayed what happened here to his superior.

  And his superior, after learning about it, immediately gave the latest instructions.

  "Although the conditions can be agreed! But now the country is at war, the army is short of funds, and there is no extra money to support your acquisition of shares, so it is estimated that Stark Industries will eventually acquire the other party's shares and gain the right to speak.

  So your next step is to give up competing for shares with Stark Industries, and instead try to master the technology research department of Tosford Corporation! "

  This is the other party's original words. After hearing the words, the military representative immediately understood that his next most important task was to master the technology research department of Tosford Corporation!

  On the other side, the Stark Industry representative was also on the phone, reporting the situation to the phone, and the person who answered the phone was Howard Stark, who was staying in a military base as a consultant.

  In the laboratory in the base, Howard was leaning against the table in a mess, holding a hamburger in one hand and a phone in the other.

  "Uh~ Since the other party sells the shares, I will buy it. It doesn't matter if it is more expensive. What else can I say!"

  "Conditional! Then tell me what conditions the other party put forward!"

  After listening to Howard's words at this time, the other end of the phone obviously said something, but Howard was completely stunned!

  "What? You said that the other party's condition is that after acquiring the shares, the company's pharmaceutical department will be sold to the other party? Are you sure you are not kidding? You must know that the pharmaceutical department is the most profitable in the Tossoff company. that!"

  Howard didn't swallow the food residue in his mouth at this time, and he shot out with his excited words, but the other party's words couldn't help him not be excited.

  He wants to control the Tosford company, mainly for the military industry department in it, so as to achieve his goal of monopolizing the entire arms industry, but this does not mean that he is stupid. Its achievements in medicine.

  To put it simply, the pharmaceutical department is the main source of profit for Tosoff Corporation. Howard has never heard of selling the most profitable department after spending a lot of money to acquire shares, so he is so excited.

  But then after listening to the words explained on the phone, Howard's whole face darkened, and his tone became cold, "Okay, since it is only the medical research department, not the entire medical department, then agree. !"

  After speaking, Howard hung up the phone directly, "Bastard, I actually have such a stupid subordinate, I can't understand the words, and when the matter is over, let him get out of the way."

  It turned out that the representative on the phone did not make it clear that Mephisto and the others were buying the medical research department, not the medical department.

  Although only two words are missing, the meaning is completely different. The medical research department, as the name suggests, is used to research drug development, and it is only a small department under the medical department.

  The complete pharmaceutical department covers: research and development, production, and sales of drugs and medical devices.
