Chapter 47: Robbing the Investment

Andre's revenge came quickly and fiercely. That very night, he found the manager of the Triumphal Building, Raymond, and asked him to come to the most famous and luxurious restaurant in Paris with him. They ordered a private room like the one in the Chateau Restaurant.

After entering the restaurant and exchanging pleasantries, Raymond asked directly, 'Count André must have something very important going on today, otherwise why would he have asked me to dine in such a restaurant? Let me guess, the cost of this private room is at least 100,000 francs?'

André laughed: 'I am impressed by Mr. Le Mont's powers of observation. My business today is actually very simple. I know that a quantum fund has rented offices in the Arc de Triomphe, right?'

'I'm sorry, Count, but you know the rules at Triumph Plaza. We are bound to secrecy for all our clients, and that is the reputation on which we depend.' Lemon said, and then asked without emotion, 'I wonder what Count Andre is interested in about Triumph Plaza's clients?'

'Because I hope that Mr. Lemon can get rid of this so-called client from Triumph Plaza,' Andre said directly.

Andre's directness took Raymond by surprise, but Raymond's surprise was within Andre's expectations. He then said to Raymond, 'Of course I don't want you to lose a client. I will fully compensate you for the losses after driving away the Quantum Fund, including the subsequent legal fees.'

'It seems that this Quantum Fund must have done something that Mr. Earl detests.' Raymond said with a smile, but then he changed his tone and said, 'But I still want to say that I'm very sorry. We have our own rules and reputation. Any company that enters Triumph building is because they believe we can keep their secrets. If we arbitrarily drive away customers, that would be the worst thing that could happen, so I refuse to help!'

As for Lemon's refusal did not surprise Andre, who said, 'Mr. Lemon, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. Perhaps you'll change your mind later, because this quantum fund is not only someone I really hate, but also an enemy of Mr. Jefferson...'

As Andre said as he took out his phone and dialed a number, then handed it to Lemond, who indeed heard Jefferson's voice on the other end of the line.

After side finished speaking, Andre said, 'I think Mr. Lemon should know who Mr. Jefferson is. He is the illegitimate son most loved by Patriarch Brando, and he even gave him the Bank of Mexico. Bankman himself is also very powerful, and if you know Jefferson, you should understand that he has a very bad temper.'

'So So,' André finally asked, 'then Mr. Lemond, your final choice is to go to heaven with Mr. Jefferson or go to hell with that damned quantum fund?'

'This there is simply no choice. Even if he is my biggest client, I would definitely choose Mr. Jefferson!' Raymond answered without hesitation, then stood up, 'Then I'll go back now and get them out of the building!'

Andre but pressed Le Mont back down into his seat and said to him, 'Mr Le Mont, there's no need to rush. Some things can wait. I want to know what kind of business they are running in the Triumph Building with their Quantum Fund. Wouldn't it be too easy to just kick them out? If we're going to do wait until they are in the middle of a crucial business deal, so that they will never forget it!'

Andre 's mocking smile made Raymond feel a chill down his spine. Then " followed Raymond to the Triumphal Building. Knowing that Zhou Ming was a financial speculator, " went straight to the network monitoring room. After all, no matter what kind of financial investment it was, it would require a network.

'The The activity of the quantum fund is basically during the day, with a little activity in the first half of the night, but the morning is the most frequent.' The network technology director reported to Topman.

'So So that's it. Combined with the recent trend in the pound, it seems that they are speculating on the pound. In that case, it seems that we can let them leave us something before they go to hell to repent.' Andre said, turning to Lemond, 'In return for your help with Mr. Jefferson, would you like me to help you make some investments that are sure to make a profit?'

From his expression, Raymond clearly understood something, so he nodded and said, 'If that's the case, I would be very grateful!'

So the next day, Andre and Raymond arrived early at the network monitoring room in the Triumph Building. They watched the network signal fluctuations in the Quantum Fund office. Although there had been a lot of network access since morning access to the network had been very frequent, but according to the report of the technical director, this was not yet their peak, so they continued to wait patiently.

Finally At 10 o'clock in the morning, the network access frequency of the Quantum Fund office finally reached its peak. Andre immediately yelled, 'Cut off their network, cut off their power and phone, and let all their investment behaviour go to hell!'

Andre Andre's sudden outburst startled Raymond and the technical director. Raymond also frowned and felt dissatisfied with Andre's overstepping his bounds, but given at this time and he still had interests to recover, so Raymond suppressed his dissatisfaction and calmly let his technical director carry out Andre's orders.

Just after the technical director had cut off the Quantum Fund's network power supply and other communications, Raymond also said to Andre, 'Now it's time for us to make money, right?'

Andre smiled: 'Of course. From the communication signals we intercepted from Quantum Fund just now, we know that they are buying pounds in large quantities. From their investment behaviour, it is easy to judge that they are pushing the exchange rate of the British pound, and then sell it at a later point in time, thus completing a pound sterling speculation. So now, let's help them finish their job!'

This was Andre Andre and Raymond's plan was to rob the Quantum Fund of its investment gains. They first intercepted the signals from Zhou Ming's office through the communications technology of the Triumph Building, and conducted data analysis of their investment behaviour and then follow their investments according to their investment direction, so that they can intercept the money that should have gone to the Quantum Fund.

'This is really a brilliant idea, except that the Quantum Fund was left destitute, not only did they lose their office, they also lost the money they were going to speculate with. Perhaps by the time they found their next office, the pound would have already started to fall!' said Raymond.

'There's nothing we can do. Who made them offend someone they could never afford to offend? This is only the most trivial punishment, the last bit of value they had before being thrown into hell,' said Andre.

Suddenly Raymond's phone rang. Raymond answered it and then told Andre that it was the Quantum Fund calling. Andre heard the name and immediately hung up for Raymond.

Facing a Raymond who looked Raymond, Andre told him: 'Some things can't be explained over the phone. So instead, let's go up there and talk it over with them!'

At this suggestion , which Raymond had originally wanted to refuse, but Andre simply did not give him the right to refuse, and directly pulled Raymond away from the network monitoring room. Now Raymond could only think, since it was already done, was he afraid of meeting them again?

With this kind of thinking Lei Meng and Andre arrived at the floor where Quantum Fund was located. Due to the power outage, half of the floor was dark. After all, in order to welcome the arrival of his classmates from the finance class, George had rented several offices.

'Oops! is this supposed to be an office? Why is it so dark? Is this a sign of something? Or is it because the people here don't deserve electricity?' Andre said in a strange voice as soon as he arrived.

Soon someone came out with a flashlight and came out, saying, 'So it's Count Andre? Then I think I understand why my office suddenly lost the internet and power. I think you asked Mr. Lemon to do it, right? But as I recall you were not allies. So is Mr. Lemon here too? I really want to ask Count André what kind of benefits he gave you to betray the reputation of Triumph Plaza?'

Zhou Ming said while while shining the flashlight back and forth. Raymond stepped forward and said, 'Due to the Quantum Fund's violations, according to the contract, we have the right to stop all services to you and order you to immediately vacate Triumph Plaza!'

At Raymond's words Zhou Ming laughed: 'Mr. Topaz, we are all adults, so let's not say anything childish like children. You know that all the violations are fabricated, right? It's fine for us to move out immediately, but I'd like to know what benefits you've received. Don't let Andre trick you.'

Topaz was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously glanced back at Andre, who said, 'I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou Ming, I'm very good at cheating, but I never cheat my friends. On the contrary, you are the person I want to cheat the most!'

Andre said to the end and was a little bit gritted his teeth. After calming down a bit, he said, 'You want to know what advantage I gave Mr. Raymond? In fact, it's nothing, just the money you were going to make.'

'We used your communication fluctuations, we analyse your investment direction, and then wait until your operation has reached its peak before immediately cutting off your network. At this time, you can no longer continue to speculate . However, we can immediately take over your investment. The money earned from this is the reward I promised Mr. Topman.'

Andre continued, 'Of course, this is only part of the reward, and there is more that Mr. Jefferson will pay.'

Andre's expression face became ferocious. In the light of Zhou Ming's flashlight, he looked like an evil spirit crawling out of hell. He said to Zhou Ming, 'What do you think? Are you feeling pain and anger? But there's nothing you can do about it. This is my revenge on you!'

Andre said confidently said Andre confidently. What he didn't expect was that Zhou Ming not only didn't roar in anger, but instead laughed heartily.

'Oh! So that was your plan! Thank you so much! I must say, Count André, you are truly an angel! Especially that catchphrase you used just now, it was really well-placed. I can tell you here today that you are the great hero of catchphrases! My friends and I will pray for you!' Zhou Ming said.
