Chapter 338

~7 min read 1,331 words

Generally speaking, executing a large project requires finding investors.

And for a good project, there is no need to look for those investors at all; even those investors will try every possible way to send you money.

It is very clear that Shengzai's company is currently in such a situation.

There is no such thing as an airtight wall. Regarding Shengzai's development and progress of the virtual world, with so many scientific research personnel involved, some news will always leak out.

Of course, since the core progress and code are all in the hands of Shengzai and "Noah's Ark," Shengzai doesn't care too much about a little information being known to the outside world.

The business world is like a battlefield, and successful businessmen who have been in the business world for many years usually have sharp eyes.

So, upon learning that the virtual world Shengzai was developing had great prospects, those financial groups naturally swarmed in like sharks smelling blood.

"Yuanzi, you probably haven't realized what the 10% of shares you hold in your hand means, right?

In your view, the market value of Shengzai's company is 30 billion yen, so the value of the shares in your hand is also about 3 billion yen, right?"

Yuanzi: "(▽`) Isn't it? How long has Shengzai's company been open?

Even if the operation is excellent, the shares won't increase much in a short time, right? Isn't that the case for most companies?"

Seeing Yuanzi's confused expression, Ayako understood that Yuanzi, who was still a high school student, didn't realize the value of the shares in her hand at all, so she sighed and said to Yuzo Tomizawa beside her: "Yuzo, you tell our silly sister what kind of price the Tomizawa Financial Group offered before to buy the shares in my hand."

"Yuanzi, listen carefully. Although after my father was killed by my eldest brother, our Tomizawa Financial Group's business is far from what it used to be.

But my second brother, Tatsuji Tomizawa, expressed his willingness to exchange an equal amount of shares in the Tomizawa Financial Group for the shares held by Ayako, and the price my brother offered was not the highest among those financial groups."

Hearing Yuzo Tomizawa's words, Yuanzi was stunned on the spot. Although she was only a high school student, she didn't know much about business matters.

But she also knew that the Tomizawa Financial Group was a super financial group that could be mentioned in the same breath as their Suzuki Financial Group. Even after the head of the family, Tetsuji Tomizawa, died, it was much worse than before, but it was still a behemoth in the country.

And such a large financial group actually wanted to use an equal amount of shares to exchange for the shares in the hands of her sister, Ayako Suzuki. Doesn't that mean that the market value of this small company Shengzai just opened is already comparable to the Tomizawa Financial Group, or even above it?

Yuanzi didn't understand. The Tomizawa Financial Group was an old-fashioned financial group comparable to the Suzuki Financial Group, while Shengzai's company wasn't just a small company with a market value of only 30 billion yen?

"Do you understand now? The shares you hold are worth far more than you imagine.

And what those people value is not the company itself, but the virtual world development technology and future prospects that Shengzai has mastered."

"To be honest, let alone those financial groups, even Mother talked to me a few days ago and hoped to buy back the shares in our hands at a premium.

After all, at the beginning of the share distribution of Shengzai's company, Shengzai did not occupy 30%, but a full 50% of absolute controlling rights.

The 10% that each of us occupies was actually given to us by Shengzai personally. At that time, the reason Shengzai gave was also very simple.

Because we knew that he, as our younger brother, was going to open a company, we all took out our pocket money and private savings to support him.

At the beginning, we thought it was our younger brother's good intention, but you should realize now what the 10% of shares in each of our hands means."

Looking at Yuanzi's shocked expression, Ayako was worried that Yuanzi would blame her mother, so she followed up and explained: "It is completely understandable that Mother wants to buy back the shares in our hands.

Because even if it is only 10%, with the potential shown by the virtual world, it is not impossible for our personal wealth to surpass the current Suzuki Financial Group in the future.

Although we are all daughters of the Suzuki Financial Group, Shengzai is the future heir of the financial group after all, so as the current mistress of the Suzuki Financial Group, she naturally doesn't want the Suzuki family's property to be married into other families."

At the beginning, Tomoko Suzuki didn't have much to say about the deep sisterly and brotherly love between Shengzai and Yuanzi, and thought that a company with a market value of tens of billions of yen was just something for the siblings to mess around with.

But when Shengzai's research results were shown, and the progress was so fast, Tomoko Suzuki naturally couldn't sit still.

Ayako Suzuki and Sonoko Suzuki were both her daughters, and Tomoko Suzuki naturally wouldn't treat them badly, but the relationships between wealthy families were just that complicated.

Especially here in Japan, after a woman marries into a man's family, even her surname will be changed.

Yuzo Tomizawa's eldest brother could kill his father for the sake of inheritance and his own hobbies. As the current mistress of the Suzuki Financial Group, Tomoko Suzuki naturally had many things to consider.

Of course, part of the reason was also because Tomoko Suzuki was not the only one who had the final say in the Suzuki Financial Group.

"Then why didn't Mom buy back the shares in our hands in the end?"

Yuanzi was an optimist, and her life of having whatever she wanted since she was a child didn't make her care much about the valuable shares in her hand. She cared more about why her mother didn't do that in the end.

"Of course it's because our cute younger brother opposed it and threatened Mother that if she bought back the shares in her sisters' hands, he would quit and not do it anymore.

Shengzai also said that the shares in our hands were bought with our own pocket money and private savings, and even Mother and the Suzuki Financial Group had no right to dispose of them at will.

You also know that Mother has never been able to do anything about Shengzai, so in the end, she could only let him follow his own temperament."

Ran and Conan listened to the conversation between Ayako and Yuanzi while sighing that the wealthy circle was really messy. Finally, after the group wandered around for a long time, they finally arrived at Shengzai's laboratory.

And in the laboratory, Shengzai was originally discussing something with Tomoko Suzuki. Seeing Ran and the others coming in a group, a smile appeared on his face: "You came just in time. I have developed a portable stealth device. Are you interested in being guinea pigs... oh no, in being the first batch of game testers?

And I won't let you work for nothing. After you finish experiencing it, I can give each of you a set of the stealth devices I'm preparing to release this time as a reward. How about that?"

Hearing Shengzai's slip of the tongue, Conan's mouth twitched. Just as he was about to pull Ran and the others to turn and leave, the Teitan trio had already excitedly agreed.

"Wait a minute..."

Conan originally wanted to say something else, but the next second, a metal helmet was already placed on his head by Shengzai.
