98 This is Too Difficult
The Investment Department of the Neal Corporation was in charge of the cash flow, and it was important to stimulate the enthusiasm of the employees.
Braydon Neal went downstairs and took the car home.
Xandra Milton, who was driving the car, chuckled. “I’ve already informed the chairman. He’s laughing non-stop on the phone after hearing the news of the Investment Department’s profits!”
Braydon chuckled. For him, there were not many things that were worth smiling about.
As long as his father, Louis Neal, was happy, everything that Braydon had done was not in vain.
Moreover, the stock price of Cloud Biopharmaceuticals had been rising!
In the Neal family’s manor, in Braydon’s manor, there was a table full of food. Louis and his wife, as well as Liam Neal’s family of three, were all there.
Ginny Neal was dressed exquisitely. She was only ten years old and had suffered a lot since she was young. Although she was young, she was very sensible.
“Uncle, when is my brother Braydon coming back?” she asked in a low voice.
“Ginny, do you miss your big brother?”
Laura Quinn was a little biased toward the little girl.
At the door of the manor, Braydon walked in like a tiger. He took off the golden Qilin cloak on his body and smiled. “Ginny, why aren’t you eating?”
“Big brother!”
Ginny ran up to Braydon. She was very dependent on him.
From the day the little girl could remember, she had never seen any other relatives except her parents. She only heard from her father, Liam Neal, that her brother was young and intelligent, a rare genius in Lamar City.
It was not until not long ago, when Braydon personally went to Lamar City to pick up the family of three, that Ginny finally saw what her big brother, whom she had heard about since she was a child, was like.
In the living room, the two brothers, Louis and Liam, were holding a tablet computer and watching the rise of the stock of Cloud Biopharmaceuticals.
The scene was very heartwarming.
Louis looked up. “Braydon, the stock price of Cloud Biopharmaceuticals has risen again. It’s already reached 168 dollars!”
“Then, did Braydon’s stock increase by several times this afternoon?” Laura was scooping rice at the side.
Liam laughed. “Sister-in-Law, of course it has increased by several times. Braydon took charge of the Neal Corporation’s Investment Department this afternoon. He used the liquid funds on the book to buy the shares of Cloud Biopharmaceuticals. It’s worth more than 2.8 billion dollars, and the cost of each share is about 21 dollars!
“Huh?”
Laura was shocked.
She thought that Braydon had earned tens of millions, and that was already amazing.
But she did not expect him to earn so much!
Everyone present knew how to calculate basic mathematics.
With a cost of 21 dollars per share, the value of the shares was originally three billion dollars.
Now, the price of Cloud Biopharmaceuticals had risen to 168 dollars, and the stock value had risen to nearly 24 billion dollars.
The profit margin was as high as 20 billion!
At this moment, not only were the two women, Laura and Qahira Summer, shocked, but the dealer who had lost the bet this afternoon was also about to explode.
After all, the dealer had just thrown out the chips today. Braydon had only taken over for half a day, and now Cloud Biopharmaceuticals had released such a great profit.
He had missed out on billions of dollars!
If it was an ordinary person, they would have been so angry that they would have had a brain hemorrhage.
Louis’ face was ruddy, and he said generously, “Let’s eat. I’ll feel more at ease with the Investment Department in the company!”
“Braydon, what do you drink?” Louis took out some expensive white wine and red wine and for Braydon to choose.
Braydon was a little helpless. He was banned from drinking. Ever since he returned home, he had repeatedly violated the law, which was not very good.
However, when the family was having dinner, someone came to visit the Neal family. The old butler of the Neal family was called Uncle Yancey. He was over 60 years old and was a very good old man. He had a gentle temper and was very loyal.
Later, because of Braydon’s family, the old man was sent to look after the Neal family’s warehouse.
It was not until Louis had returned to the Neal family that he was asked to return.
“Master, there’s a man called Gunter Bell outside the door. He wants to see the young master.” Uncle Yancey came to the door and said respectfully.
“Let him in. Dad, Mom, Fourth Uncle, you guys eat first!” Braydon got up and went to the small courtyard.
Gunter drove the car directly into the Neal family’s manor. On the way, he was secretly speechless. As expected of the Neal family, the head of Preston’s seven great families. This manor was really luxuriously built.
Just the manor’s lawn alone was probably several acres.
Gunter let the security guard lead the way and came to the manor’s courtyard. “Professor Neal, there’s a situation at the research lab. Everyone wants you to come over.”
“We’ll talk on the way!” Braydon got into the car and asked Gunter to head to Preston University.
Naturally, no one dared to stop the car with a white license plate.
Gunter personally drove the car and arrived at the research building. There were armed young men all around him. They had set up a security perimeter around the building, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach.
In this area, anti-gravity experiments were being conducted.
The research team had dozens of people, and they had prepared three experimental devices. They had also modified the parts and blueprints that Braydon had given them.
This was the greatest ability of the research team.
As for developing a complete anti-gravity propeller, it would be impossible for them to do so within five years.
They could only use the finished products to continuously upgrade, transform, and optimize.
However, there was no progress in the optimization process. All of them ended in failure.
This created a lot of pressure for the research department. Gunter was under even more pressure. This project had already been reported to the higher-ups, and they were basically asking about the progress every day.
One could see how much importance they placed on it!
The advent of anti-gravity devices had an impact on the entire aviation industry. If it was successful, it would widen the gap between modern flying vehicles and other vehicles.
This alone was enough to be listed as a national project.
The person who made this happen was the genius, Braydon.
There was no other person in the world who was in charge of a national project at such a young age.
However, the project had not been approved yet because of one person, and it was Braydon!
Because of Braydon’s identity, they had not been able to investigate it clearly, and Gunter had almost lost his life because of this incident. He had been warned by Danny Que, the Wolf of the East.
Only a few people had the right to read the SSS-rank files.
Therefore, the laboratory could only be placed in the research building of Preston University. As for the security level, it was raised to Class A. Gunter usually assigned people to be in charge of security and prohibited unauthorized people from entering.
After all, once the news of the anti-gravity device had been leaked, spies from hundreds of countries around the world would definitely infiltrate and steal the technology.
Colin Spades was stationed there on a daily basis, assisting in the research lab and fully following up on projects.
He was also under a lot of pressure. The president of Starbright Manufacturing had personally asked about this matter and asked him to follow up on this matter with all his might. If possible, he hoped to develop an anti-gravity device that could fit spacecraft as soon as possible.
Colin probed. “Professor Neal, it’s too advanced to study the anti-gravity propeller now. Should we study the anti-gravity device separately and apply it to the aircraft first for the start-stop technology?”
“I can try!”
Braydon did not turn him down, nor did he put on any airs.
As for one sixty-year-old professor from the research team, his name was Yonah Zill. He smiled bitterly and cupped his hands. “Chief Engineer Neal, this technology is too difficult to overcome. Passenger planes that weigh 50 to 60 tons are not rare, but it can be used for vertical start and stop. It’s really difficult!”
Braydon was the chief engineer of the anti-gravity engineering research lab. This was the project that Gunter had urgently requested for which had been approved. The Central Research Institute had already filed it.
