In the field of the Internet, Henry, with the memory of his past life, can be said to have completely crushed other companies in terms of creativity.

He has more Internet companies that have not yet been established, such as Facebook social networking sites, LinkedIn professional social networking sites, TripAdvisor travel review sites, etc. However, Henry has decided that if these sites are established again, they will be through overseas offshore companies. Take holding!

Henry ordered people to secretly purchase 6 registered offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, the Seychelles, Bermuda, and the Republic of Panama. That is a total of 36 offshore companies. the company. Each of these 36 companies collectively controls an Internet company, and it is very difficult even for the United States to investigate!

After completing these, Henry asked these offshore companies to acquire small Internet companies in Silicon Valley, and then changed the names of these small companies. Henry first acquired 4 companies and changed their names to "Facebook", "YouTube", "Linkedln", and "TriAdvisor".

Later, the company acquired some talents, and Henry gave them his design plan to complete!

This time, Henry wants to control these companies behind the scenes, if not necessary, otherwise he will not reveal his identity!

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Henry thought to himself that he was so good that he was jealous. It was time to make some changes. First, keep a low profile and stop irritating others; second, do something stupid!

What are you doing stupid?

Burn money!

Henry then split the Williams Lab from Williams Electronics, and then changed its name to "WilliamsX" Mystery Lab, ready to burn money!

A company that has a good X, its name seems to have to bring an "X" at the end of the name. Such as GoogleX, SpaceX...

The WilliamsX Mystery Lab will be similar to the GoogleX Mystery Lab, engaged in the development of future high-tech that will shock the world, but it will be stronger than Google. Engaged in nanotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence, solar energy, and nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion, driverless cars, smart glasses, smart watches, high-altitude wireless networks, space elevators and other technology research and development...

Henry has more than 130 billion U.S. dollars on hand. After that, he plans to cash out a large amount of funds from the stock market, which will cost hundreds of billions of dollars anyway! So much money can just support Henry's high-tech development.

Burning money is fine. But you can't burn it indiscriminately. The development of technology is a process of accumulation and gradual progress. Some projects will start after other technologies mature. Such as driverless cars, smart glasses, sky elevators...

Henry listed nanotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence, and high-tech energy (solar energy, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion) as the first research echelon, which is the main research direction of the WilliamsX mysterious laboratory!

Now, Henry still wants to acquire Lockheed Martin, but it is not easy to let the California consortium out. Bank of America is the financial core of the California consortium. However, in recent years, Bank of America has been gradually eroded by the Morgan Consortium and the First Citi Consortium, and the California Consortium’s control over the Bank of America has become weaker.

Therefore, this is Henry's breakthrough.

If you own a stake in Bank of America. Helping the California consortium regain control of Bank of America in exchange for buying Lockheed Martin, the possibility should be great. Henry pondered for a moment, and the only way was to cross-exchange shares between Williams Galaxy and Bank of America!

Williams Bank faces Citigroup Galaxy and Morgan Bank in the United States. It feels a little weak, and it's time to look for allies. The California consortium, also in California, is naturally the best choice. Henry thought to himself. Infiltrate the California consortium through Williams Bank, and then cannibalize it step by step in the future, and finally use it for your own use, thus establishing your own Williams consortium! ! !

Moreover, Henry's own main industry is in California. The so-called one cannot tolerate two tigers. Therefore, sooner or later Henry will have to annex the California consortium!

To acquire Lockheed Martin this time, it is better to simply break into the California consortium!

Henry thought of this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he picked up the phone to get people to contact the California Consortium!

A week later, Henry met with more than a dozen representatives of the California consortium at Williams Bank!

Henry smiled slightly and said to everyone: "Everyone, welcome to Williams Bank!"

"Mr. Williams, I heard that you are planning to merge Williams Bank with Bank of America. I don't know if this is true?" asked an old man who was just about 60 years old, staring at Henry like an eagle.

The old man is Brent Gus, CEO and President of Bank of America, an important senior in the California consortium!

Henry looked at him, nodded and said: "Yes, there is such a plan." Henry paused and said, "Williams Bank and Bank of America have been competing, especially in California, the relationship between each other is very tense, even It is because of this that vicious competition has been generated, which has caused both parties to lose. So I think that cooperation will benefit both! In addition, I am very uncomfortable with the Morgan Consortium and the First Citibank Consortium to dictate to the Bank of America. Bank of America is a California consortium. The Milky Way is equivalent to the "territory" of the Western Consortium. Why does the Eastern Consortium interfere?!"

"Williams, what do you mean..." Brent Gus asked uncertainly for a moment.

"I mean it's very simple!!!"

Henry smiled and said, "Williams Bank and Bank of America are married, merged, and then drive the Morgan Consortium and First Citibank Consortium away!"

Henry glanced around and said faintly: "Presumably you also know that there is a lot of friction between Morgan and Citibank. We should be in the same camp. Besides, everyone is in California. How can people from other states be bullied!"

As soon as Henry finished speaking, many people nodded secretly.

Brent Gus made this eye contact with others, and then Brent Gus asked Henry: "Do you have a specific merger plan?"

"Yes!" Henry nodded. "The market value of Bank of America is 120 billion U.S. dollars and its total assets are close to 600 billion U.S. dollars. The Williams Bank has a market value of 80 billion U.S. dollars and total assets of more than 450 billion U.S. dollars. Consolidation. After that, you can redistribute the shares according to the market value!"

Brent Gus nodded slightly, then talked with the others in a low voice. Williams Bank is a new bank, full of vitality, and Williams Bank has rapid development potential, especially in the area of ​​online banking, which has the most online registered users. What Henry said about the distribution according to market value is obviously more powerful for Bank of America. Other representatives of the California consortium discussed for a while and all agreed to Henry's method of distribution of shares.

Brent Gus then said to Henry: "Mr. Williams, after our discussion, we basically agree to your request!"

Henry replied with a smile on his face: "Well, it's great. Bank of America can be combined with Williams Bank. The strong alliance is of great significance! However, now it's up to Citigroup and Morgan Bank to disagree! "

Brent Gus disdainfully said: "Now the Bank of America is still under the control of our California consortium!!!"

There was a smile on Henry’s face, but he was a little disdainful. The control of Bank of America is being gradually taken away by Morgan and First Citibank. The California consortium still dares to speak up... However, it is true that at this stage, California The consortium owns the control of Bank of America, which is stronger than the eastern consortium!

"Mr. Brent Gus, before Williams Bank and Bank of America complete the merger plan, I have a small request!" Henry finally said his other purpose.

"What's the matter~www.readwn.com~you say it!" Brent Gus said indifferently. As long as the Williams Bank can be merged, it is okay to promise Henry some small things!

"That's it," Henry said. "I heard that Lockheed was negotiating a merger with Martin Marietta. I mean, I paid for these two companies!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the people present were a little unnatural.

Upon seeing this, Henry shrugged and said faintly: "If Lockheed and Martin Marietta can't be bought, then I can only ask the Morgan Consortium if they would like to use their arms. The company sold it to me, hehe, anyway, they have a lot of arms companies, including General Electric, General Dynamics, and Grumman Aircraft, etc..." Henry paused, then smiled at Brent Gus Smiled, "Did you say so, Mr. Brent Gus?"
