Chapter 366 College Basketball Season Begins 10
Eva can't say anything but eat the food happily and compliment Jake's talent, because those two dishes were once on the restaurant menu and it was Anna herself who cooked, so the restaurant had no problems with the recipe.
Also, after working so long at the restaurant Eva learned that anyone who prepared the dish with the same recipe made all the difference, she couldn't even cook all those years better than Anna or even some cooks at her restaurant.
So she could only admire Jake who was talented in everything he did, she was proud to have a child so that even though she had achieved so much at such a young age she was still humble and striving to get even better.
As Jake had come by surprise few people knew he was in Miami, Eva decided to just say that to Anna at the restaurant, Jake also didn't tell almost anyone he was in Miami, only Emily knew he was home.
Nothing important could happen in the week he was home, and if it happened people could look for his mother or his friends at the university who knew where he was.
There was no way he could talk to Matthew about the company because the official sales report would come out only early next year and it was better for him to settle it only in February when he had another week off.
His sponsors were also busy with the company's reporting and accounting at the end of the year, Jake just knew that John's company hoped to break their company's sales record again this year.
They were smart and only invested advertising money in Jake-related stuff, the rest of the profits and even new investments were concentrated on their product quality, they greatly improved the product so that customers would buy their drink because of Jake and then continue to consume the product because they liked the drink.
This seemed to be working because the company's sales only increased, Jake didn't expect to renew the sponsorship agreement with John's company and so wanted to know what their profit would be next year when their contract would probably end in the middle of the year.
He hoped that the companies that worked with him would continue to profit even after he was no longer sponsored by these companies, these companies helped Jake when he needed it most and he wanted to help if possible.
Just as Jake wanted in the next few days he stayed home relaxing and enjoying time with his mother, so Eva this week was coming home early to spend more time with Jake and he was training at home while his mother was at the restaurant.
He wouldn't be without training just because he was home and he had nothing else to do, the training center that Jake set up at his house was better than some things he used at the university because they were more suited to him.
But after 2 days Emily called Jake saying she wanted to meet him at lunch, Jake knew that Emily was very busy running the investment company so she knew it should be something important and went to meet her.
"Hi Emily, you look very good today."
"Thank you, I'm happy for what has been happening with the company, I never expected these actions to appreciate so much, it makes me feel that everything we worked on was worth it."
"Did you come to report on the company's investments?"
"No, that's what I called you for, but if you want I can tell you how the company is doing."
"Of course, you can give me a report."
"Your stock has appreciated a lot in recent years, mainly because of the investment you made last year, this year you have stocks worth $ 44 million."
Jake had hoped for that when he invested last year, he knew that in fact the stocks had not even started to appreciate much, in the next 3 years these stocks would appreciate more than 10 times the current value, but of course as soon as he could invest more he would earn.
If he had invested the $ 33 million he used to buy Clara's stock to help her, he would have doubled that now and more than 10 times that over the next 3 years, so when Jake said he wanted help Clara he was being more than sincere.
"The shares that my father's group has now are worth $ 98 million, I never expected them to make so much, I told my father that if he sold those stocks as he wanted to do last year he would have lost a lot of money."
"Still he told me it's too risky and keeps saying to ask you to sell his shares."
"Matthew's shares are worth $ 987 million, not long after reaching $ 1 billion when he received this report he no longer told me that he wanted to sell the shares he had invested."
Jake was glad that Matthew finally trusted him again, after seeing the stocks valuing Matthew who was a smart businessman and knew well Jake decided to let Jake take care of his investments.
If Matthew sold his shares last year as he wanted, he would have lost more than $ 200 million and regretted it for a lifetime, after which he thought it was better just to trust Jake to take care of his investments, but Matthew would not. would invest more money in stocks.
On the other hand, Jake was very upset with Emily's father and his group's investors, Jake hoped that this group would keep these investments because in the coming years it will appreciate almost 10 times more.
Also because it was Emily's dad's group and Jake wanted Emily's family to make a lot of money, but it had been years and Emily's dad was just charging Jake more and more to sell his shares.
In addition, Jake knew from Oliver that Emily's father and other investors complained that Jake charged a high management fee to invest and also gave clients no freedom to sell the products.
Jake didn't plan on continuing with this investment company after 2000, but it wasn't good to hear others complain about Jake's company to help people make more money from his knowledge of the future.
Also, this was the best time to sell these shares without negatively affecting the market, in the coming years Jake could not sell nearly $ 90 million without having any reaction on the value of Cisco shares.
"I'm sorry Emily, but your father and his friends have already pissed me off about their investment, which is not a tenth of what the company has invested, I wanted to help them make more money, but after all that he did, I'll ask you to sell his shares and give them the money."
"No, Jake, let me talk to my dad, I know how much he will lose money if he sells his shares now."
"There's no way, Emily, he's been defaming me and the company these last few years, if you want to invest I help you, but your father's investments are no longer in my company."
Emily felt it was a pity, but she knew well enough that Jake had already endured too much because of her, she also knew what her father and the other investors were doing and could do nothing about it.
"Get them to sign a liability statement that they want their shares to be sold and then you can sell."
"I'll do it, my dad will be happy about it now, but will regret it in the future, well, I wanted to tell you that Charlie and his group have finished developing the smartphone as you requested and also a tablet, as you asked."
"They are coming to Miami and tomorrow they will be here to show the finished product, Charlie said it was just the same as you said and it is ready."
Jake was very happy to hear that, he didn't expect Charlie to actually finish this product later this year, so Jake had better take a little longer for Jake to get a lot of patents.
But as the process was really slow it was better to go now and in a few years when the patents came out he could have the best gains, now he had to develop a strategy to get many patents in order to get many royalties for this product in the future.
"Very good, after you ask the company to sell the shares of your father's group, come back here and we'll start organizing how we will apply for patent applications to earn even more in the future."
"Very well."
Jake was very happy because he thought he might actually sell smartphones in the future, he was able to assemble the smartphone and everything needed, then he would ask Charlie's team to develop the Android operating system if they could just missing the components to assemble the smartphone.
The cameras he could get from Matthew's company and he could even partner with Matthew's company and Amazon to create a richer company than Apple for smartphones.
Matthew would soon become a billionaire after Jake sold the stock in a few years, in many years Amazon would also become one of the largest companies in the world, with Jake's patents and operating system they would have the capital and resources to create the largest Company of the world.
But that was something to see in the years to come, before thinking about this partnership Jake had to secure product patents first, only later would he have more ability to negotiate with Matthew and Jeff Bezos so as not to lose out on this deal.
