At the end of the call, Nagini had a smile on his face.
On this planet of the Marvel Universe, there are several very famous companies: Stark Corporation is the strongest, followed by Oscorp, and Hammer Corporation follows in the footsteps of Stark Corporation, claiming that as long as Stark Corporation has something, they have it, but the quality?
Tsk tsk!
In addition to the above companies, there are several other companies that are also very powerful. Although their total assets do not reach 100 billion, they are not comparable to ordinary 10 billion companies.
The most important thing is that they are the top in their respective fields!
Among them are the Life Foundation and Pioneer Technology.
However, the current Pioneer Technology is still just a small shrimp.
There is a long way to go before the other party's total assets of tens of billions. Otherwise, Nagini would not have bought 7% of the other party's shares for only 100 million USD.
However, Nagini did not invest in Pioneer Technology to wait for its appreciation.
If you look at the short-term rate of return, the most profitable is bound to be shorting Stark's stock. As long as it is done properly, Nagini should get tens of billions of USD in assets.
The reason why he cooperated with the other party is mainly because Pioneer Technology has amazing research results in the repair and reorganization of cells, genes, and other aspects.
One of the representative results is "Extremis"!
Nagini has an idea. He wants to make a serum that is more perfect than the first generation super soldier serum.
This is difficult, and it's not something that can be done with money.
Even Captain America and Red Skull, the two near-perfect serum experimental subjects in the eyes of the world, have serious problems themselves.
To make the perfect super soldier serum, it takes a lot of energy and financial resources, in addition to precious information and scientific researchers, and it also requires military permission.
In the current situation, this is almost an impossible task.
But even so, Nagini still wants to try.
He understands that this is destined to be a jigsaw puzzle that needs to be found, but so far, he has already got 13 cards, which are the research data of Pioneer Technology and Mr. Lan on Mr. Green. As for the rest of the puzzle?
Nagini's eyes flickered with thought-provoking depth.
He tidied up his clothes, shook his head, and the depth in his eyes was hidden, replaced by the sunshine of the past.
Looking at Wilson and Redmond not far away, Nagini walked over with a smile.
The two of them were discussing business. Nagini was not very clear about the specific process, but from the looks of the two of them, the business discussion was coming to an end.
Raymond, who was wearing gaudy beach pants and a pair of tawny sunglasses, held a green coconut in his hand. He had the sinister and cunning look unique to Fat Viper.
"500 million USD for 1% of Angel Films' shares. That's not a low price. Don't you agree, Nagini?"
Angel Films' market value was 17 billion USD.
In Hollywood, it was known as the ninth giant, second only to the eight giants. However, its market value was different from its true value.
The popularity that Nagini alone provided was worth 7 billion USD (influence + personal assets). This did not include the profits from his movies over the years. If all of them were included, Nagini's value would be at least 10 billion USD.
Without Nagini, the true value of Angel Films would only be two or three billion US dollars at most.
Five hundred million USD for 1% of the shares?
This was not a matter of whether it was low or not, but a price that was ten times or a hundred times higher than its true value!
However, Wilson's eyes flashed with hesitation. It was not that he was greedy, but he knew the true intentions of Redmond, this fat viper.
With a thoughtful look, Wilson was silent for a moment. Finally, he shook his head.
"500 million USD for the intelligence network in New York. You even want me to pay 1% of the shares. Are you sure this price is reasonable?"
However, Redmond shook his head. His eyes flashed with seriousness. "500 million USD is just the beginning. You need to get a bigger slice of the pie in Hollywood, and I need the intelligence network in New York. If you and I work together, it's a win-win situation!"
Times had changed. Things from the past could no longer be played in the current era.
Back in the previous century, what was the most profitable?
Firearms, laundry detergent, human trafficking, these were the most profitable. But now?
Although these businesses were still profitable, compared to the past, the risks were many times higher.
Under Nagini's suggestion, Wilson had been cleaning up. Although he still controlled the laundry detergent business, his main focus was on film and real estate development.
In last year's financial report, the profits from the black industry chain only accounted for 11% of the total profits.
From this point, Redmond was very smart. After he inherited Mr. Falcone's position in Los Angeles, he did not follow the path of the older generation. Instead, he developed the intelligence network.
In America, anyone with a little bit of status knew about Redmond, this intelligence tycoon.
Just by buying intelligence, this guy made a lot of money. And this did not include the promotion of his position. It must be known that some high level intelligence was not necessarily exchanged for money, but friendship was more precious than money.
It was precisely because he had tasted the sweetness of success that Redmond sought out Wilson. He wanted to expand his intelligence network, using both the east and west coasts of Merrica as the starting point. Eventually, it would spread to the entire Merrica and form an incomparably huge information network!
Of course, he also knew that 500 million USD was not enough.
But the problem was that part of Wilson's funding came from Hollywood. There was no conflict of interest between the two sides. Not only was there no loss in this cooperation, it was a win-win situation.
500 million USD for shares?
Just like what the fat viper said, this was just the beginning. It was the cornerstone of their cooperation.
Wilson's eyes flickered with hesitation. His relationship with Redmond was ordinary.
They knew each other and had met a few times, but they did not know each other well.
Because of his profession, Wilson would not cooperate with people he was not familiar with. So, he looked at Nagini with a questioning gaze.
If he remembered correctly, how many times had Redmond and Nagini cooperated?
Nagini thought for a while. His eyes flickered as if he was thinking about the other party's question. But in the end, he said, "Redmond, do you know the CEO of Hammer Corporation?"
Redmond was stunned. A trace of doubt flashed in the fat viper's eyes.
But after a moment, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. A trace of confidence flashed in his eyes. "No, but give me three days and we will become good friends. Do you need me to bring him over?"
Nagini shook his head and patted Redmond's shoulder. "No, you can contact him next time. I want to talk business with this CEO Hammer. I know a good restaurant in New York. Their finger biscuits are good. Let's make a reservation there."
After that, Nagini took two green coconuts and left without looking back.
Redmond's eyes flickered as he watched Nagini leave. He seemed to have realized something and a smile appeared on his face. "Happy cooperation."
Wilson looked at Redmond. He also understood something, so he smiled and raised his glass.
"Happy cooperation."
Nagini's words just now seemed to be asking Redmond to contact CEO Hammer, but in fact, he was expressing two attitudes.
At this moment, Redmond was at Wilson's house.
Three days later, CEO Hammer met with Najini. They agreed to meet at a high-end restaurant in New York.
At first glance, it seemed that he respected this CEO Hammer, but don't forget that the other meaning of respect was estrangement. Although it was just one sentence, it meant that Redmond could be trusted.
It didn't matter if Wilson trusted him or not. What mattered was whether Nagini trusted him or not!
After returning home, Nagini didn't ask about the deal between the two upstairs.
He didn't know about this matter. In fact, if it wasn't for the smell of the fat viper, he wouldn't have come to the rooftop to make a call. But from the conversation just now, Nagini was sure that the fat viper really wanted to make a deal.
The first thing he saw when he came down from the third floor was the two women watching TV on the sofa, but they were a little absent-minded.
Betty was worried about Dr. Banna, and the old woman was worried about her best friend.
After seeing Nagini come back, Betty's eyes flashed with anxiety. "Was it Banna?
How is he now?
Why isn't he back yet?
Could something have happened? "
Shaking his head, Nagini took out his phone and said helplessly, "The CEO of Pioneer Technology, Dr. Killian, has a problem with their capital chain. They want to invite me to invest."
Betty's expression stiffened, and her bright eyes dimmed a little. She sat down on the sofa and said, "I thought it was Banner.
Nagini, I don't know why, but I feel very uneasy. "
Facing the disappointed Betty, the old woman patted her shoulder and comforted her. "Betty, you're probably thinking too much. In theory, nothing will happen to Banna. After all, it's just a school."
However, Betty shook her head with a wry smile and a complicated look flashed in her eyes. "But my father?
You know that he won't let Banna go so easily. "
Nagini, who was opening coconuts, thought for a moment. "No, I'll call and help you sound him out."
Betty looked up subconsciously. "Can you?"
Nagini shrugged and handed two coconuts over. He said disapprovingly, "Of course, it's just a phone call. It's no big deal."
As he spoke, he took out his phone.
"Hello, General Ross. Sister Betty seems to have something to say to you. I wonder if you have time now?"
"Nagini …"
"What?"
"I'm at your door now. Open the door. I have something to talk to you about."
