Chapter 230
The body upgrade reassured David.
He could finally continue to upgrade his strength. The system would be a flop if the ordinary limit was the final product.
Fortunately, the system did not let him down.
Though he now needed more lavish points, he had hope.
Besides, he would spend more boldly as he grew stronger and thus gain more lavish points.
He was cautious about spending eight to ten billion dollars at first.
Now, spending one hundred billion dollars was nothing. He was stronger and had a terrifying background, so he could be more brash with his money.
He would get stronger and spend hundreds of billions, trillions, and tens of trillions of dollars. He would have a never-ending supply of lavish points!
He not only wanted to be the strongest but also build the strongest forces to control the world’s economy.
The global economy would tremble whenever he casually stomped his feet. The thought of it alone was exciting and satisfying.
While David was lost in his fantasy, East League International rose to fame in Springfield.
When a conglomerate enjoyed a successful financing, a press conference was often held to to enhance its popularity and prepare for a successful listing.
An investment firm had been featured in several recent press conferences held by companies i n Springfield, and its name was East League International.
Slowly, the media began to take notice.
One news outlet did the math for East League International.
The result was shocking.
In less than a month, East League International had invested nearly one hundred billion dollars in Springfield alone. How wealthy was it?
As soon as news broke, it made headlines.
A previously unknown company had invested nearly one hundred billion dollars in Springfield!
It had never happened in a cosmopolitan city like Springfield.
Then various media and busybodies began to dig into East League International’s background.
All they could find was that East League International was a newly established investment company with its headquarters in South River Province’s River City.
It owned Golden Leaf Hotel—the only eight-star hotel in South River Province, with an estimated value of twenty billion dollars.
They had recently invested in a dozen Springfield companies and bought an office building, totaling more than eighty billion dollars.
East League International had over one hundred billion dollars in assets so far.
The scariest part was that the chairman of the company was named David Lidell, who was only 21 years old and still a university student, but no other information about him could be found.
Besides that, David owned 100% of the company’s shares, which meant that the 21-year-old university student was already a veritable billionaire.
A mysterious 21-year-old billionaire?
It had generated a great deal of media interest.
If they could get first-hand information on David, their news would be a huge hit.
Therefore, these media began to conduct a background search on David with every connection they had.
However, they could find nothing but a name and an age.
They could not even find a picture.
Pearl Warner, East League International general manager, attended the financing conference every time.
Pearl had become David’s spokesperson.
