Chapter 788 The Home of the Richest Man

Delfina's younger brother Anthony is a shy guy with long hair, a stubborn face, a very artistic atmosphere, and a strong romantic character of the French nation.

When he learned that Candice had a relationship, the young man beat his chest with a sad and angry look on his face and issued a tragic and serious statement saying that as long as he had a little breath, he would never give up on his pursuit of her!

Holding his forehead with one hand and a black line all over his head, Delfina pressed his younger brother Anthony and sat down and quickly apologized. "Sorry, my younger brother has such a personality, but he has all the virtues necessary for a gentleman, so just ignore his existence..."

He reached out and held Fu Zhengyi's hand on the table. Candice smiled and raised his glass and said, "No need to be sorry, similar things have happened many times. Someone once hid his weapons on the ceiling to kidnap me. The company's email address can receive hundreds of mails, either expressing love or threatening emails every day. The staff responsible for handling the email complained that they suffered from neurasthenia and asked the company to give special holidays as compensation..."

Anthony jumped up in shock. "Oh my God! There is still someone who dares to do this..."

He grabbed his brother's arm and pressed him down again, and Delfina scolded, "Anthony! Shut up! Silence! If I hear you make a sound during meals, I will deprive you of your right to stay here!"

Anthony, who was drunk by Delfina, looked sad, but he really followed Delfina's request and quietly used up the dinner. When taking a photo before parting, he hung his hand on Candice's shoulder with great measure, but there was no substantial contact, which surprised Candice.

After driving away his younger brother who was unwilling to leave, Delfina sat down dejectedly and said helplessly. "Hey, he is such a person. Although he is in college in the United States, he is actually a shy and very shy guy. I even worried that he still can't find a girlfriend when he is thirty..."

Holding Fu Zhengyi's arm, Candice was a little surprised. "Why?"

"Only in front of me, he would show his love to girls so bravely, but when he was dating alone with the girls, he didn't know how to speak. He only knew how to take girls to watch movies, analyze the filming techniques and the tricks of using the camera..."

A strong father, an older sister with outstanding grades, and a stepmother with a third child in her belly, holding a younger brother who is still learning to walk in one hand. Although his younger brother Anthony is the eldest son of the family, he has a shy and introverted personality and is not suitable to take charge of the huge family's industry.

Delfina, who is regarded as the second future heir to the family business, naturally had to plan early for the future of the siblings.

Gently turning the wine glass in his hand, Delfina struggled for a long time before whispering softly. "Fu, my problem is more troublesome. My father gave me a sum of funds and asked me to choose a suitable project to invest within half a year. If the results are good, I will be qualified to enter the company's board of directors, but if it fails, or my father thinks the plan is not executable, then he may deprive me of the qualification to enter the company's board of directors, and then my brother and I will only have family funds left to dominate..."

Candice was puzzled. "Why?"

"As the richest man's family, what is needed besides family affection is a keen business acumen, and what is needed is a leader who can keep the family business growing and developing. Anthony has made it clear that he will give up taking over the company. Even if the stepmother's children are still young, even if I say it's not for myself, I need to work extra hard for my brother, and I must never lose the qualification to enter the company's board of directors..."

Since the inheritance rights are involved, there is no room for maneuver in many things, and Fu Zhengyi naturally understands why Delfina is so nervous.

As the richest man in France, it is possible that he himself can't even explain how much his assets are.

However, even a percentage point in the entire family's assets means huge wealth that ordinary people cannot imagine.

What's more, Delfina's stepmother's three children also have the right to inherit. Therefore, for Delfina, being a woman is a weakness. After her younger brother Anthony voluntarily gave up the power to take over the company, if she also lost the qualification to enter the company's board of directors, it is obvious that the siblings can only count on their family funds.

After understanding the cause and effect, Fu Zhengyi said straight. "So what do you need?"

"I need to find funds that are willing to support me, and these funds can only accept preferred shares and must give up the exercise of management rights..."

Fu Zhengyi was a little surprised. "What you mean is that you need to find a partner who can provide funds to share the risks with you, but the other party cannot obtain management rights?"

"Yes, this is the most troublesome thing! What I need is to find a partner who can fully trust me and is willing to give funds to support me unconditionally..."

Fu Zhengyi asked, "Is it difficult to find such a partner?"

"It's not that it's hard to find, but it's impossible to find it at all! If my father was willing to endorse this project, maybe I could find some partners who would believe in his keen business sense, but I? It's too difficult. I only have two years of experience working at McKinsey and I can't find a partner who is willing to provide me with such help, so I will only think of asking you for help after receiving your call..."

Fu Zhengyi was quite puzzled. "Why do you think I can become such a partner?"

Delfina looked a little confused. She bit her lower lip and thought for a long time before she smiled bitterly. "I don't know, I just want to give it a try... Also, if this project fails, my father will not give my partners compensation for this project..."

"That means you only have a fund that does not belong entirely to you, and without your father's support, you need to find a partner who is willing to provide funds and trust you completely?"

"Yes! That's it."

Fu Zhengyi breathed a sigh of relief, and a feeling called "absurdity" arose in his heart.

Arnold is clearly a way to make the inexperienced only daughter prove her ability in this way.

Even though the two children he gave birth to with his second wife were not even on the road, he was already preparing to deprive his two adult children of the board of directors.

In wealthy families, sometimes internal struggles are so bloody.

Fu Zhengyi sighed a little, raised his head and looked at Delfina seriously.

Looking at Fu Zhengyi's inquiring eyes, Delfina couldn't help feeling a little panicked. She quickly lowered her head, and couldn't help but reveal the weakness and frustration of the woman. After struggling for a long time, she whispered. "Fu, I know that my problem is very troublesome, and I understand that it is a bit too much to make such a request to you, but... but I believe I can do it well, and I am willing to privately promise to assume the liability for the funds you invested. Even after I lose the qualification to enter the company's board of directors, I can use the family fund I personally own as a guarantee..."

Fu Zhengyi asked. “How much money does your father give you?”

Delfina raised her head. "If the project is right, you can get up to 50 million US dollars..."

“So what kind of project do you want to choose?”

"A growing luxury brand! Secondary financing is carried out through equity mortgage, just like the method my father used to adopt, implementing holdings of a luxury brand, and using the company's sales and publicity channels to achieve faster development..."

After listening to Delfina's introduction, Fu Zhengyi stretched out his hand and signaled her to bring the specific plan.

But Delfina didn't understand what he meant, and hurried over with a glass of wine. "What?"

"It's specific! At least you have to let me know first which company you are targeting, its equity structure, products you are producing, sales scope and competitors, etc.!"

Delfina blushed and she hurriedly apologized. "Ah! Sorry! You wait! I'll bring it to you immediately..."

After Delfina left, Candice lowered her voice and asked, "Honey, are you willing to help her?"

"As long as her choice is correct, investing in her is equivalent to investing in the future French richest man! When I show off in the future, I can say that the French richest man also grew up because of my investment!"

Seeing that Fu Zhengyi was smiling and not as if he was telling the truth, Candice pouted and said dissatisfied. "Honey! Delfina is so pitiful. It is too difficult to complete such a test for the future of her and her brother. Even if you don't want to accept her conditions, don't fool her. In this case, it would be too much to joke with her..."

Seeing Candice misunderstood, Fu Zhengyi said seriously. "I didn't want to play tricks on her! As long as she really has a good project, I will definitely be willing to give her money to help her!"

"Really? Are you willing to accept such harsh conditions?"

"Yes, I've said it all. Even if I just get preferred stocks, once Delfina successfully enters the board of directors, it means that my investment will definitely be rewarded. Even if it cannot be said to be a generous return, the European market still needs to be developed..."

Speaking of this, Fu Zhengyi thought about it before continuing. "Besides, I said before that I wanted to give you the opportunity to stroll in the Louvre alone. Delfina's father is the richest man in France. Then he must have a good relationship with the French government. Helping Delfina is equivalent to making her father owe me favors. It will be much more convenient to do business in Europe in the future. In order to satisfy your wish to climb the bell tower of Notre Dame, you still need to find this and that one, which is very troublesome..."
