Chapter 1295: Chapter 442: Rising with the Tide (Part 3)
At that time, there will be considerable returns, but these returns are not important to Donnie. What truly matters is that during this period, Donnie can accumulate more capital, and when the cold snap of the U.S. stock market hits, he will buy some promising companies at that time.
If this campaign succeeds, the Block Family will become the most powerful business family in the United States, possibly even surpassing Morgan.
“Not entirely in the name of Venus Bank?”
Robert looked at Donnie with some surprise.
Donnie nodded and said, “Not entirely in the name of Venus Bank!”
Robert thought for a moment and understood what Donnie meant.
“I see, I’ll remind Jesse Livermore!”
Donnie, aware that interests are the most crucial weapon for binding a group, told Robert, “I’m planning to establish a new investment company, which will handle investments outside of Venus Bank.
At the same time, I plan to bring in you, Chris, Magichi, Bruce, Steve, Wis, and Randy as shareholders, of course, the money has to come from you!”
These people were with Donnie when he first started his fortune in Atlantic City.
Chris Kamp, needless to say, is now the Vice President of Venus Bank, fully responsible for the United States Logistics business, and is the most developed among these people, apart from Robert.
Magichi Peyton is currently in the Soviet Union, responsible for the affairs of the Baku Oil Field and contacting those high officials of the Soviet Union.
Bruce Currie is in Canada, responsible for all the bootlegging operations to the United States.
Steve Cotting is in Germany, currently in charge of everything related to Warburg Company.
Westglenn is currently in Portugal assisting Bobby Moselle, serving as Vice President of the Central Bank of Portugal.
Randy Powers is in the United Kingdom, responsible for all of Donnie’s affairs there!
From Donnie sending most of them out, it was evident his trust in these people.
“Don’t underestimate this investment company; if done well, it will not be inferior to Deep Sea Bank in the future!”
Donnie said with a smile to Robert.
Robert naturally believed Donnie’s words, saying, “Should I call them and notify them to come to Atlantic City during this time?”
Donnie pondered for a moment and said, “Sure, it’s been a while since we last met!”
Robert sighed a little, saying, “Back when we started out from Elwood Village, I never thought there would be such a day, and it came so fast!”
Hearing Robert’s words, Donnie also sighed slightly, smiling, “Yeah!”
Robert said, “Donnie, to be honest, I still have an unreal feeling. It took us less than ten years to achieve what might take others several generations. It’s crazy, sometimes I can’t believe I married the daughter of the Adams Family while looking at Fiona beside me.”
“I’m even a bit worried that one day when I wake up, I’ll find that everything we’re experiencing now is actually a dream, and I’m still busy with those farmlands and perhaps trying to marry the pastor’s daughter!”
Donnie laughed out loud and said, “You’ve overthought it. Do you want me to punch you right now? If you feel the pain, then it surely isn’t a dream.”
Robert instantly jumped away from Donnie, jokingly said, “Forget it, even if this is a dream, I don’t want to wake up!”
Robert’s words reminded Donnie of a movie set in the future, which tells a story about dreams. There’s a poignant scene where some people prefer living in dreams over facing reality, which is chilling to watch.
“By the way, I’m visiting the Adams Family tomorrow. I suspect they’re planning some actions too. What do you think about this?”
After joking around, Robert sat back down next to Donnie and asked.
Donnie pondered for a moment and said, “I think we can provide appropriate assistance, but you must find suitable investment targets, not someone who only wants to take advantage without contributing anything. That wouldn’t align with our initial intention of finding you such a wife!”
Robert nodded, saying, “I understand, I’ll carefully discern when the time comes.”
Donnie reminded him, “Don’t underestimate those families that have stood in the United States for hundreds of years; there must be some hidden strengths in them that we don’t know about!”
Robert nodded again, “Understood!”
After chatting for a bit, Robert switched the topic back to the establishment of the new investment company.
“Since we’re going to establish a new investment company, shouldn’t it be distinguished from Jesse Livermore? It’s a bit risky to hand over all investments to him!”
Donnie smiled and asked Robert, “Do you have a suitable candidate?”
Robert did not shy away, replying, “There is indeed someone, a classmate I met in New York. I’ve been observing him over the past two years and have come to recognize his abilities since he started working on Wall Street after graduation!
I originally planned to bring him into Deep Sea Bank during this time, but now hearing about the new investment company, I feel that having him in charge of the new investment company would be a good idea!”
Donnie nodded, not immediately agreeing, and said, “Send me his information, and I’ll take a look by then. If it’s suitable, let him handle it!”
Robert smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll have someone send it to you in the next couple of days!”
