Chapter 219: Sorting Out

Finn Lewis didn’t expect to get an answer from Mitchell Davis, but it made sense when he thought about it. E-sports was a new industry, while football and basketball had been developed for many years. At present, e-sports could hardly be compared with other traditional sports. Although both Flame Nation and other majority of nations listed e-sports as a sports project, there were no large-scale competition projects, which hindered its development.

Its target audience was mainly young people, who are not the main interest of the middle-aged mainstream society. According to the current trend, it will take at least a few decades for the younger generation to become mainstream and for e-sports to gradually be accepted worldwide.

Of course, just because mainstream society didn’t recognize it didn’t mean Finn Lewis wouldn’t pursue it. There wasn’t any correlation. If he was delighted with the pursuit, that was all that mattered. Furthermore, bringing to fruition something that was initially difficult to achieve would be even more motivating.

After seeing Howard Lee and Mitchell Davis off, Finn Lewis returned to his habitation alone. When he got home, his parents had already returned. They were used to his late hours. As soon as Finn Lewis returned, Fay Wells said, “Finn, come here. I have something to tell you. Your Dad, Chloe and I are planning to return to Hello City tomorrow.”

Finn Lewis looked at Zoe, who didn’t seem to have any specifical emotions. Apparently, his parents had already figured things out. Finn Lewis nodded and said, “Okay, you see I’ve been too busy these days.”

“Well, you’re accomplished now. Being busy is expected. Your father and I can’t help you much with these things, but don’t forget what I told you,” Fay Wells said seriously.

“Don’t worry, Mom. I won’t forget,” Finn Lewis said, looking at Fay Wells and gesturing to Ruby Frank and the others, knowing what his mother was referring to, and said helplessly.

“Okay then, you must be tired, go back to your room and rest,” Fay Wells said with a smile.

After chatting with his mother for a while and noting the time, Finn Lewis returned to his room. As soon as he got to his room, his phone rang. Picking it up, he saw it was a call from Henry Lewis. It must have been forwarded from Olivia Thatcher’s end, otherwise Finn Lewis wouldn’t have his number.

“Young Master.” As soon as Finn Lewis picked up the phone, he heard Henry Lewis’s voice from the other end.

“Yes,” Finn Lewis nodded.

“I’ve roughly outlined the profitable ventures we can undertake,” Henry Lewis said.

“Very good,” Finn Lewis nodded.

“We need to buy a ranch in Australia first, ” Henry Lewis said without any preamble.

“In real-world Australia?” Finn Lewis raised an eyebrow.

“Of course,” Henry Lewis replied.

Finn Lewis pondered for a moment. He was short on funds, having spent lots buying a skyscraper the next day. After buying that skyscraper, there wouldn’t be much money left over. The rest would have to wait until the new game was launched and see if he could recover his investment.

“Alright, you go ahead and prepare to buy a ranch in Australia, or something else. You can choose the location,” Finn Lewis suggested, thinking it was a good idea to send Henry Lewis to prepare in advance.

“Young master, but there’s a problem with the funds,” Henry Lewis asked bluntly.

“Yes, we do have a problem with our current cash flow,” Finn Lewis didn’t hide it, there was no need to. As Finn Lewis’s intelligent robots, they were created due to Finn Lewis’s existence, so there was no need to hide anything from them.

“We don’t need to outlay too much initially. We can just use the assets under your name to seek a loan from the bank. The bank will definitely grant us the loan,” Henry Lewis suggested immediately.

“Are you sure?” Finn Lewis raised an eyebrow.

“Leave it to me,” Henry Lewis assured him promptly. Finn Lewis naturally wouldn’t mind spending the bank’s money. His first points came from a bank loan, though he used little of it. However, it was still used, otherwise, he wouldn’t have managed to develop such a massive scale so far.

“Alright, I have nine more companions just like you in my hands right now. I will summon them all. Additionally, I’ve purchased a building today; we can use it as our company headquarters in Celeston City,” Finn Lewis thought for a moment before speaking. His current businesses were a bit messy, and since he had just bought the building today, it was the perfect opportunity to handle things.

“I’ll handle Lord’s assets with Olivia today and then draw up a plan for Lord. You just need to decide whether to execute it or not. You can leave all other matters to us,” Henry Lewis immediately said.

After hanging up the phone with Henry Lewis, Finn asked Zero to release the remaining nine T2500-type intelligent disguise robots. But he didn’t have them report to him directly. Instead, he had them contact Olivia and then let Olivia assign tasks to them.

The next day, Finn sent his parents and Zoe to the airport. Zoe had behaved perfectly the night before, but once they reached the airport, her eyes were rimmed red. It was clear that she was reluctant to leave Finn. It took some time to comfort her and convince her to go off with her parents. He, too, didn’t want to see her go; despite the short time they’d spent together, Zoe had already become an indispensable member of the household.

On the way back from the airport, Olivia’s voice resonated: “Young Master, I have sent the names of all of them to your mobile phone. Now, Henry has gone to negotiate with the bank. Our conclusion is that we need to establish at least three subsidiary branches.”

“Branches for three parts?” Finn raised an eyebrow, asking curiously.

“Yes, three subsidiaries that don’t have any contact, or even compete with each other. Some of the industries we hold can easily cause monopoly, so we need at least two competing companies. Besides, we need some opponents to hide our identity,” Olivia explained.

“Go on,” Finn nodded.

“Firstly, you will no doubt appear in front of others in the future, so you will need another company to operate secretly, where there is no contact between us, even we should appear to be in competition with each other in business.”

“That’s why we first need to establish a holding company to include the stakes of all these under our flag and the stakes of the upcoming companies. This will make management easier. However, we recommend that you privately own this holding company.” Olivia drew a chart for Finn to help him understand. “Just do as you mentioned,” Finn nodded. He didn’t have a clear understanding of business activities.

“Okay, Young Master, you need to give us a name. What’s the name of the privately-owned holding company?” Olivia asked.

“Let’s call it ‘Zero’.” Finn thought for a moment. Too lazy to think of a unique name, he decided to use the name ‘Zero’.

“Okay, then it’s ‘Zero Co., Ltd.’, with you, Young Master, as the singular owner. Now we need another company name,” Olivia continued.

“Virtual World,” Finn considered. Didn’t he own a virtual world already? Although the world was still in the year 1836, it was undoubtedly a huge treasure for him – a complete world.

“Alright, Young Master, for now, ‘Virtual World Ltd.’ is 100% owned by Zero

Co., Ltd. Virtual World Ltd. now owns 4.8% of the shares of Company A, 57% of

VVY, 100% of Blue Wind Tech Co., Ltd., 100% of the Goddess of Light Private Car Manufacturing Factory, and 100% of Dura Auto Manufacturing Factory.” Olivia promptly listed every asset that Finn currently owned.

“Do I already own this many companies?” Finn was surprised. Dura had been entirely bought by him before the product exhibition. However, David Lancaster was the proxy for the acquisition. Finn paid 1.5 billion federal coins for it—a task, so he didn’t spend any actual money.

Now accounted for, the assets under Finn’s name weren’ t that few. If word got out, Finn was likely to rank among the top in the world’s billionaire list now.

However, Finn knew better—he couldn’t count assests like the rankings, at least the Redfield Group’s assets might not be less than the top few on the world’s rich list. But they were never included. Including the shares of company A, Finn’s assets almost touched 40 billion federal coins, and perhaps even surpassed it.

But there weren’t many that he could use at will, and he couldn’t use the 4.8% shares of company A yet. It was just listed under his companies.

“Yes, this doesn’t yet account for all the assets under your name, Young Master, including the real estate you own. Of course, our technology should be more potent,” Olivia said with a smile.

“Well, I didn’t expect that I would be the chairman of a conglomerate. Would this be considered a diversified company?” Finn shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile. But of course, the major chunk was A company’s shares, and Finn couldn’t consider it his until the shares were in his name.

When Finn entered the city after talking to Olivia, it was almost noon. After grabbing a bite outside, he got a call from Henry. Hearing that he had finished negotiations with the bank and was waiting for Finn to finalize the results, Finn was quite surprised. But when he remembered what Olivia had sorted out for him, he realized that with all his assets, getting a loan should be no problem at all..
