Chapter 207

Chapter 207 Fear of death is not Abel's unique attribute

Mentored by "senior fellow" Liv Tyler.

Furthermore, a person's integrity is actually the same.

What you say and what you do are always different.

What I think in my heart is often easily shaken.

Scarlett Johansson arrived much earlier than Aber imagined. Became his actual employee earlier.

The morning of February 11.

Around 7:30 a.m., Abel has breakfast and starts his morning exercise.

Since his resurrection, he has always maintained the habit of going to bed late and waking up early.

Every night, he usually doesn't rest until three or four o'clock. The next day, I usually wake up after seven o'clock.

This made him very worried, worried that something was wrong with his body.

After that, he spent a lot of money and invited top doctors for a medical examination.

At first, he was afraid his secret would be revealed.

He then discovers that his real secret cannot be revealed. What can be revealed is not a secret at all.

For example, it secretes very high androgens, as well as unusual physical recovery and deep sleep quality.

After many examinations, he was informed of the results of each medical examination.

He is in very good health.

There were even sleep experts who stayed up many nights to check his sleep. Test results are also very healthy.

He is one of a million humanoid monsters.

It reassured him a little to know that he wasn't sick.

But the body is really good.

These doctors are very good to his body. Most of the conjecture and research is thought to stem from genetics or acquired mutations.

Only Abel knows he has this healthy and abundant body.

The high possibility could be related to my different experiences with normal people.

And this makes him appreciate his body even more.

Since then, he has been playing sports. No matter how good a kitchen knife is, it will rust if you don't sharpen it thoroughly.

He feels that no matter how beautiful his body is, if he doesn't pay attention to it, one day he will lose his shape.

If truly deformed, physical strength will decrease.

It can become humiliating.

This world is so beautiful, he wants to enjoy it for a few more years!

At 7:30, practice ends. That is before 8:30 am.

He completed a series of things like waking up, running, bathing, eating, etc.

At this time there were two "employees" in the room.

They are still sleeping soundly.

At nine o'clock, Abel left Paradise Bay Villa. Around noon.

At Paradise Bay Villa, the master bedroom is the largest.

Liv Tyler slowly opened her eyes.

She is energetic, but physically tired.

Liv looked up at the unfamiliar ceiling above her head and was stunned for a moment. He stared at the ceiling for several minutes, passing through the hazy time when he first woke up.

Liv simply turned aside and she was no longer surprised that the man was no longer there.

And another young figure of the same god appeared next to him.

She wasn't surprised either.

The last time we woke up together was this morning. The person of the same sex sharing the bed with her is Sarah Michelle Gellar.

The person who lied to her this time, Liv Tyler knew her name was Scarlett Johansson.

Liv Tyler suddenly found out.

Whether it's Sarah, Scarlett or herself.

All three were born child actors. There are people in the family who have worked in Hollywood or the entertainment industry.

The previous experiences were very similar, but the Hollywood experience was different.

"Great similarity, terrible combination."

Liv Tyler muttered like this.

She quietly saw Scarlett sleeping, her eyeballs under her eyelids twitching.

Liv knew this was a sign that the sleeping person was about to wake up. Right after that, Scarlett also opened her eyes.

At first, she looked up at the ceiling vaguely like Liv had before.

"啪~"

Liv punched her square in the shoulder.

"It's been one o'clock, it's almost noon, are you still sleeping? Young man, you don't need to work.

Scarlett was a bit confused, but after being beaten by her, she calmed down a bit.

Frozen for a few seconds, Scarlett's memories continued.

The blonde girl remembered where she was at that moment.

The two talked for a while.

Liv stood up first, followed by Scarlett. She continued to lie down for a while before slowly standing up. And expect both, probably around two in the afternoon.

I just left the room.

Abel himself and others went to the Gulf.

He met Warren Buffett in San Francisco, also known as China's San Francisco.

It was Warren who asked you to meet here. Buffett came here to check out some companies.

Then the stock god heard that Abel was nearby so he invited him out.

The two met in San Francisco, at a popular coffee shop.

Another word.

Warren Buffett also owns his own securities company. That is the scale, not as large as the safety of Abel's rock.

After all, behind Abel, I still want to play PMC and try to become the king of the COSPLAY war.

Both have too many bodyguards.

The two people's bodyguards occupied the entire cafe.

So, among the richest people in America. The attribute of fear of death is not unique to Abel.

Really reach a certain level, real wealth.

It can be said that there is no person who is not afraid of death and does not pay attention to their own safety.

Especially rich people in America!

The most typical example is Soros.

Around Old Sach, in the same class, rumors spread around him, there were even experts from the secret service and FBI or CIA working. The reason is that Soros is still the financial sword of Wall Street.

Many times, whether Lao Sach likes it or not.

Old Sach will be directly pushed by the people behind him, even the White House, to financially invade small countries.

Old Sach committed many crimes during the financial war.

The countries he has already invaded financially need only launch a strong and physical counterattack against him. You will know whether Lao Sach dares to go to Southeast Asia or not.

This is also the reason why Soros' security work has these special employees.

People are really fighting for the country!

Even this "country" is often just a representative of the capitalists.

Compared to him, Abel and Buffett are much more normal.

"Hello, good afternoon. Garenne~"

After receiving Smith's investment last year.

Abel and Buffett became friends.

Business cannot be benevolent and fair.

At that time, Buffett though failed to invest in Smith Capital.

But at that time, the two talked quite speculatively and the relationship naturally stabilized. "Good afternoon." The old man smiled and said: "You have been on the West Coast for a long time. Hollywood has been excited by you for so long. People who don't know think you are really an entertainment mogul, forgetting that you are." ." the most famous man on Wall Street. A young giant.

"I'm not a giant." Abel smiled: "My head is such a standard size, where is 'Giant'?"

"Hahaha~" Buffett laughed loudly.

As a stock god, few people have ever told such boring jokes in front of him. And with Abel's current condition, it was clear that he could begin to be his equal.

Even if the impact is a little worse, wealth may be less.

But equality is enough.

Not to mention it took Buffett 35 years to accumulate this fortune.

And Abel is not even two years old!

Saved 70 or 80% of Buffett's net worth in two years. This speed is completely unprecedented.

"I know you guys, you never engage in boring interactions."

Abel had coffee in his hand but he didn't drink it.

That's what Buffett asked him to do.

As soon as I smelled it, I knew it was cheap coffee at this cafe.

Additionally, this has not been verified by the guards and no security measures have been confirmed. When outside, Abel will not enter at will.

He looked at Buffett: "Otherwise I wouldn't have put Berkshire Hathaway in this little place in Omaha."

"So let's be honest. Warren, what do you expect from me."

Buffett was not surprised by Abel's frankness.

Last time he came to New York, the stock god saw many aspects of Abel firsthand.

In fact, this is the same for most Americans, including the American elite. Because I have never learned the middle way, I have never studied with the Angsa people, they are skillful so they are often so straightforward.

The stock god took a sip of coffee, put it down and said, "Would you like to own American Express?"

Abel raised his eyebrows, neither startled nor surprised by Buffett's question.

The accident happened because he did not expect Buffett to talk directly to him and drink coffee because of the American Express incident.

It's no surprise that Abel himself knows that Buffett holds American Express in high regard.

Parallel to time and space. Since Buffett became a shareholder of American Express, he has always held an important position in American Express, and this was true until Abel left.

This means that Buffett has always been the largest shareholder of American Express.

And currently, in the list of shareholders of American Express, Buffett takes first place.

But Smith Capital ranked fourth and Pacific Bank of Commerce ranked fifth.

The two companies' combined shares are slightly higher than Buffett's 11.4%. Americans know that these two companies appear to be independent.

But behind them there is only one boss.

In other words, just note the percentage of American Express owned by these two companies.

Then you can find out.

Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is no longer AmEx's largest shareholder.

AmEx's largest shareholder has changed. At this time, Abel was sitting in front of Buffett.

"Why is there such a problem?" Abel smiled and replied:

"You are bullish on American Express and I am bullish on American Express."

"After all, it is one of the constituent stocks of Dow Jones. I think such a quality company is worth holding for the long term, and I would naturally buy its shares."

His explanation did not satisfy Buffett.

"I studied you."

Buffett quietly said:

"Among the documents I have studied, it shows that any company you have shares in, if more than 10% of the shares, will gradually be cannibalized by you and eventually become your property."

Abel replied: "How many companies have I invested in? Maybe not even a tenth of yours? With such small amounts of data, what can we count? What truth can we compare? »

Buffett smiled.

"But more importantly... your American Express and Pacific Bank of Commerce businesses are a great fit."

"If the US Pacific Bank of Commerce could merge with American Express."

"A merged bank could instantly make you one of the real giants."

"I think this must be a great temptation for you."

Seeing Buffett's confident appearance, Abel knew immediately because he could find it.

This is to ensure that I will have this type of thinking. And I really mean it too.

Abel simply had a confrontation.

"Okay. So why did you come to see me? Warren, you didn't come to me just to convince me to leave the Amex board, right?" Abel opened his arms and looked at Buffett. "300 billion USD, I want 5% stake."

Buffett suddenly said: "I will satisfy you with American Express and Berkshire shares, and some cash."

Abel raised his eyebrows again, he knew what Buffett was talking about.

His reaction is also very fast.

"Four thousand. 4%."

"Yes. But the VAM deal must become 150, 300, 500, 700."

"Agreement. Welcome on board, Smith Capital's fourth largest shareholder.

Abel stood up, smiled and extended his hand to Buffett.

Buffett also smiled, stood up and shook his hand.

After shaking hands for a while, the two sat down again.

Both of their moods became much better after that.

Abel asked curiously:

"Warren, are you so optimistic about me?" You know, even the people in Texas haven't contacted me."

"Many people say my investing skills are very conservative and value-oriented."

Buffett seriously said:

"But I do not think so. My true investment philosophy is to invest in "people" and brands.

"I stick to Coca-Cola because I believe in the brand."

"When I first invested in American Express, I was also investing in the brand. But later when I invested in American Express, I had already invested in Howard Clark.

Howard Clark was CEO of American Express in the 1960s and 1980s.

Around this time, American Express went through a near-bankruptcy crisis.

It was Howard Clark who took American Express out of the quagmire and put it in very good shape. "This time." Buffett focuses on Abel:

"I'm investing in you, dear Mr. Abe Smith."

Abel shrugged.

He mocked Buffett's statement.

He h. If it weren't for such a gambling agreement, Abel would almost believe it!

What is brand investment? Invest in "people".

Isn't it ultimately due to the gambling agreement? 150,

300,

500,

700.

The four-year gaming deal is expected to yield total profits of more than $165 billion over four years.

Just the benefit of these four years.

Investors were able to return one-third of their capital.

Calculated this way, the average annual return is about 10% higher. This type of annual income closely resembles Buffett's investments over the past few years.

Not to mention such a large investment.

The difficulty in getting them to generate returns is inherently much higher than with small lot funds.

According to Buffett, Abel feels this is at most half the truth.

The other half is based on the gaming agreement. "Right." Buffett asked with a surprised smile:

"You just said I am Smith Capital, the fourth largest shareholder."

"Who are the top three?"

"Me, David Mellon and a Texan." Abel answered directly.

"Oh, Texan." Buffett understood in seconds.

Look at me and understand.

Abel chuckled, but strictly speaking, you are the first real investor.

These two investors They all receive dry shares and only enjoy dividends from the beginning.

It will take time to secure support for Smith Capital.

can become this kind of real action.

The right to receive dividends will always be in Abel's hands.

So it's up to Abel whether they get the money or not in the end. After this incident, Berkshire Hathaway officially became a shareholder of Smith Capital

After the two leaders have determined the basic purpose of cooperation.

In the coming time, there will of course be competent personnel from both companies to conduct more detailed negotiations and research the contract.

These naturally require the involvement of professional accountants, actuaries and lawyers.

Of the ten largest private companies in America, three to four are like PricewaterhouseCoopers.

That's what they do. Then the two talked for a while.

Not long after, Warren Buffett left.

The stock gods will continue to examine the company.

It is different from Abel when Buffett wants to invest in a company.

The old man will be very active in researching the company, attending the company's shareholders' meeting and visiting the company. It's like playing a game.

Some players seriously studied the strategies, studied the liquidation videos and finally completed the level through hard work.

And some players may type "greedisgood9999999999" at the beginning.

The next step is to buy, buy, buy, buy, build, build, build, build and build directly, enough force to make a flat push.

What can be opened, what can't be opened. The way to play is naturally different.

fired Buffett and the main character did not leave San Francisco.

He's all here, so of course he's going to visit some of his businesses here.

For example, at the request of its largest shareholder, Google also moved to Palo Alto.
