Manhattan Reborn 1978

David's house.

Ended up having lunch with the family.

Sierra was by David's side, helping him pack the things he needed to take back to New York.

Old David quietly went to the secret base, holding a small package in his hand, and handed it to Black Mike.

Black Mike opened it and saw two m1911 pistols.

Old David patted Black Mike on the shoulder: "If David is too busy to come back, just take time to come back and see more. This room will always belong to you, kid!"

Black Mike looked at Old David, lowered his head and put the small package away: "Okay, I will!"

After half an hour.

Black Mike and David stood side by side in front of their home, hugging David Sr. and Mother Sierra one by one.

David made an agreement with them that when the apartment above the Wildfire Bar is renovated, he would invite them to bring the two sisters for a party!

"Mom, help me tell the two sisters that I will buy them gifts next time we meet!"

"Me too!"

"Tell them that I love them very much and ask my father to take them to New York to find me when I have time!"

"Me too!"

David gives Black Mike an eye roll!

"You tell me first this time!"

amount. .

Black Mike scratched his head: "I will call you often and take time to come back to see you!"

"Me too!"

"Hahaha~"

The family all said goodbye with a smile~!

Old David held Sierra in his arms and watched the car disappear around the corner in the afternoon sunshine.

"You said, David..."

"My dear, stop thinking! David has grown up! We just need to give him support and encouragement. That's enough!"

"Ok!"

On a New Jersey highway.

Black Mike drove, opened the window, and stretched one hand out the window, feeling the feel of the wind.

"David, did you really want to understand something when you returned to New York this time?"

"No, man! I didn't understand anything!"

"What!?"

"Haha~"

David patted Black Mike and then looked out the window: "From my original understanding of life, making money should be very simple. But when I really put the plan in place, I put them together one by one. Only when you take it out and finish it will you realize that nothing in the world is easy!”

"Including my ideal, to become the mascot of da company!"

"It's not easy, man!"

"Then what you were talking about to Old David and the others at home just now...?"

"Just let them rest assured, man! These things in the company are all my responsibility. I can choose to ignore them for the time being and escape from them. But they will never disappear, let alone handle themselves!"

"So, our lives have to go on."

"I have to continue to complete my plans, face everything positively, and get them all done. Only then can I have time to rest."

Black Mike tilted his head and thought for a moment.

"So where do you start? How do you do it?"

"You know, I really want to understand something these days."

"Those problems that may cause trouble will always come. What we can do is solve them one by one in advance."

“Just like when we were busy in the bar, no matter how many customers urged me to order more drinks, I had to make cocktails one by one and serve them to them.

I'm not a magician who can conjure up drinks ordered by drinkers out of thin air. "

"They are different problems, but the principles for facing and solving them are the same!"

"Why does your tone of voice sound a bit like Old Rhett's?"

"Really? Well, maybe he will be a good chat partner. When I have something I can't figure out next time, I can go talk to him!"

"Haha~ Old Rhett is helping you look at the decoration of the Wildfire Bar right now. You should go find him for a drink and thank him!"

"Is this still happening? OK! We'll go find him after we finish our work in the evening. Do you know where he lives, right?"

"Well, he lives in..."

After more than an hour.

They came to the company's small building.

Black Mike looked for a place to park, and then asked someone to help him watch.

David walked into the small building carrying his backpack.

On the first floor, there are staff from the security company responsible for the security at the door.

David had met them at the Wildfire Bar and greeted them with a friendly wave.

Fifth floor.

Polly's office door is closed.

He found Andy's office again, but there was no one there either.

After David walked around the fifth floor, he finally found a familiar staff member and asked him why.

It turned out that Polly and the others had gone to Stanley's place for a meeting.

On Wall Street, in the Morgan Stanley Building, due to this year's layoff plan and the bankruptcy and dissolution of some small companies that were originally affiliated, two entire floors of offices were vacant.

Now they are home to insurance companies and angel and venture capital firms.

Today, Pine invites everyone in the company to check out the new office location and hold a meeting together to discuss the company's subsequent development.

Gee!

David had to go downstairs to find Black Mike, and the two went to Stanley's side to attend the meeting.

Looks like he came back just in time!

After a while.

David was led by a staff member to a conference room on the fourth floor of Stanley.

As he walked, he looked around. Outside the conference room, a group of employees in suits and ties were walking back and forth, busy.

The guide staff introduced to him that this is the office of the insurance company, and the offices of two investment companies are upstairs. The office furniture here is all ready-made, and the busy people are sorting out their new work. Bit.

David nodded and continued walking.

Several people came to the door of the conference room. He opened the door and saw a group of people sitting inside discussing something.

Polly, Ludy, Andy, Ben Likert, George, Sally, Ben Whitcott, Pine, Giles, and two people who surprised David were also sitting in the conference room. Malkin and the old tailor!

He smiled and put down his backpack in front of everyone's surprised eyes and said hello: "I didn't expect everyone to be here! Is this the most comprehensive meeting of DA company? If everyone agrees, I can also represent my father. if."

Most people were surprised by David's arrival at this time and stood up to greet him.

David nodded to them one by one and responded.

Polly glanced quietly at her father, Malkin Sr., and resisted the urge to step forward and deal with David.

Giles happily walked up to David in two steps, patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "You are finally willing to come back? You bastard! When Bloomer returned to Los Angeles, he was still telling me, you The kid doesn’t know when he’ll be able to go to New York, and he’s complaining that you couldn’t send him a plane.”

"Man, I just gave myself a few days off! Do you want to get rid of me? No way! That boy Blumer has a great idea, will you let me take it to you when you get home?! Tsk~"

Pine next to him asked with a smile: "David, your vacation this time is long enough! Since you are back now, come here, sit here, and let's sit down and chat."

"Okay Pine, the environment here is great!~"

After a while of greetings, everyone finally sat down again, and Pine allowed David to assume the position of chairing the meeting.

David sat down directly.

He asked everyone about the content of today's meeting.

After listening to the introductions of several people, I realized that today is the first shareholders meeting since the establishment of the company!

The goal of this meeting is to clarify everyone's current job responsibilities, as well as issues such as management, equity, options, and investment of each company.

Before David arrived, everyone had reorganized the equity distribution of Da Group.

da group includes affordable stores, nightclubs, construction, transportation, beverages, services, trade, clothing design, clothing processing, advertising, film and television, and angel investment.

Security companies, insurance companies, venture capital, fund companies, and media companies are David's personal shareholdings. They only bear the name of DA and have no direct equity interest relationship with the DA group.

Pine explained to David the current situation of one of the insurance companies.

The contracts for universal insurance and participating insurance that David once mentioned are already under intensive preparation.

Among them, the investment profit distribution he mentioned has brought great pressure to many consortiums that own insurance companies.

None of them understood why the surplus profit distribution ratio of David's plan was set at 60%, which was so high.

David smiled and shook his head. He did not answer this question for everyone. He asked Pine to continue the introduction.

Pine shook his head helplessly and continued: "The shares distributed by our insurance company account for 37%, and some of the shares are families, consortiums, and individuals."

"Their investment has been transferred to the company's account, totaling 370 million U.S. dollars."

David asked curiously: "That means that our insurance company has not started operation yet, and its total equity value has reached 1000 million dollars. Among these investments, who has invested the most?"

"Rockefeller! They took 7%!"

Oh ~

No wonder!

"anything else?"

"The Wharton family is second, Citibank and the Norton family are third, and the rest are average, the same amount."

David turned to look at Giles: "Was it Bloomer? Or was it his father who voted for it?"

Giles smiled and said: "Blummer's investment, as well as venture capital and fund companies, are all considered to be his personal investment!"

"Wow~ Is this kid so rich?"

"Haha~ He and his dad borrowed it!"

"Borrow? He's really brave!"

Pine smiled and waved to the two of them: "We will talk about this later."

"Do you have anything to say about the equity distribution of the subsidiaries of Da Group?"

David shook his head and said: "As long as everyone in the company has discussed it, I have no objection."

"However, we need to set aside a portion of the shares to provide option incentives to future company executives, so that they can work harder to serve the company."

David then looked at Ben Likert.

"Likert, the angel investment company will also have options for you and your subordinates as an incentive and reward for your future contributions to the company."

"I will sort out several investment projects before Monday and let Ben Whitcott give them to you."

"Okay, Mr. Coleman!"
