Chapter 620 Living A Dream II


    As thedies made themselvesfortable on the plush sofas, the aroma of freshly brewed tea soon wafted through the air. The attentive maids quicklyid out an array of delectable snacks to nibble on as they engaged in light-hearted small talk. However, as the clock ticked away, it was time to delve into the more pressing issues concerning thepany.


    "Zachary, I wanted to discuss some of our current investments," Miss Heather, the acting CEO of thepany, began. "I''m concerned about our cryptocurrency investments, specifically Ethereum and Bitcoin. As you know, both have decreased significantly in value over the past five months. For instance, Ethereum''s worth was at a high of 1100 Euros per coin in January. But now, its value has dropped to approximately 500 Euros per coin.


    "Simrly, Bitcoin has also been fluctuating, and it''s currently valued at around 5500 Euros,pared to over 9000 Euros in January. As you''re aware, the cryptocurrency market is highly vtile and unpredictable. Given our initial investment, which has already yielded hundreds of millions, I strongly suggest we sell all our coins. Doing so will provide us with a secure and stable financial footing."


    "Ah, I''m not really worried about the cryptocurrency market fluctuations," Zachary said confidently. He had future knowledge that cryptocurrencies would eventually surge to new heights, so he had to remain patient with his investments, waiting for the right time to cash in. "How much profit have we made so far from our initial cryptocurrency investments?" he asked Miss Heather.


    Miss Heather consulted her tablet and informed, "We put 4 million Euros into Bitcoin in November 2015. Its value has increased by about eighteen times and is currently worth around 72 million. Furthermore, we invested 5 million Euros in Ethereum in June 2016, which has grown roughly thirty times and is currently worth about 150 million."


    "That''s okay, but not good enough," Zachary said with a slight nod. "I''m prepared to take a chance and hold onto the cryptocurrency for an extended period to ensure our profits keep increasing."


    "But..." Miss Heather started to say.


    "Miss Heather, no need to worry," Zachary interjected. "Our strategy involves taking the long view, so it''s best to not stress over minor details. I''ve already decided, and we''ll hold on to the cryptocurrency for a few more years. Speaking of which, how are our shares in Te, Netflix, and Leeds United performing?"


    "Although there hasn''t been a significant change, the situation is steady," Miss Heather responded. "We''ve seen a 36% increase in the value of our Te shares - now worth approximately 2.7 million Euros. Our Netflix shares have grown by approximately 69%, bringing their worth to around 6.8 million Euros from the initial 4 million Euros. Finally, our investment of 4 million Euros in Leeds United shares has grown by about 0.5%, providing returns of approximately 20,000 Euros."


    "Looking good," Zachary said with a grin. "We can hold onto the shares and expect a decent profit on our initial investment after a few more years. Are you still equipped with enough funds to support thepany? Or should I transfer more money to you?"


    Miss Heather responded, "We have sufficient funds already. Additionally, our property investments in Ivory Coast have begun generating decent rental ie. Hence, we can utilize that as the operational capital for thepany."


    "Excellent work," eximed Zachary. "I truly appreciate your hard work and dedication to thepany. Keep up the great work!"


    "Sure thing," Miss Heather replied with a smile. "Regarding the cryptocurrency, have you given it any more thought? It''s important to note that virtual currency rates can be highly vtile, and if we''re not cautious, we could risk losing all the progress we''ve made so far."


    "Miss Heather, I understand the risks involved, but I''m willing to take the chance," Zachary confidently stated. "Let''s leave it at that and move forward with our n." Zachary had future knowledge about the cryptocurrency market. He knew that Bitcoin and Ethereum would skyrocket in value in 2021. Therefore, he didn''t want to sell them before they reached their full potential.


    "Alright, I understand," Miss Heather said calmly. "That''s all I wanted to share. I''ll leave you two to have some privacy and discuss things between yourselves. Emily must have a lot to talk to you about." She then excused herself and left the living room without hesitation.


    Emily smiled at Zachary and said, "She does have a point, you know. Investing in cryptocurrency is a risky venture. I don''t know why you aren''t willing to sell when you have already made over a hundred million Euros from your initial investment."


    Zachary smiled mysteriously and spoke lightly, "I have my considerations. By the way, do you have any good news for me?"


    "I indeed do," Emily eximed, her face lighting up. "I''ve been busy reaching out to all the top football clubs, and guess what? They''re all moring to sign you up! You''ve got many options, from Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich to Atlético Madrid, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham, PSG, and many more. So, where do you see yourself ying next?"


    Zachary spoke with confidence. "The English Premier League! That''s where I see myself taking my football career to the next level."


    Emily''s eyes lit up with excitement. "Ah, I had a feeling you''d say that. But which club would be your dream team? Is it Manchester City, Liverpool, or Chelsea? Or perhaps you have your sights set on another team?" she asked curiously. "Tell me all about it!"


    "I can go to any team with apetitive edge in the Premier League, aside from Manchester City," Zachary stated. "Just do your best to get me a good contract with one of the promising teams."


    Zachary had already familiarized himself with the GOAT System''s workings and knew that the bigger the challenge, the greater the rewards. This was why he wasn''t interested in joining Manchester City, the team that had dominated the Premier League in his previous life. Instead, he had his sights set on clubs like Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal, which would put his skills to the test and offer substantial rewards once he had aplished the system''s missions.


    "Being open to various options is great," Emily remarked. "However, to make it easier for me to find you a rewarding contract in a promising football club in the Premier League, it would be helpful if you could tell me your first choice. I will make sure to prioritize that from the beginning."


    After a moment of thought, Zachary spoke up. "If I had to choose, Liverpool would be my top pick, followed by Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, and Manchester United in that order."


    "Sure thing," replied Emily with a grin. "I''ll make Liverpool the top priority, but I''ll also stay in touch with other promising English Premier League clubs. We will initiate the transfer process after you finish representing Ivory Coast in the World Cup."


    "That sounds like a good n," said Zachary. "I also wish to focus on the World Cup first."


    More topics about the uing World Cup naturally came up as Emily and Zachary continued chatting. Emily quickly pointed out that Zachary''s group was no easy feat, with Spain, Portugal, and Iran all in the mix. She reminded him of the teams'' respective FIFA rankings and how challenging it would be for Zachary and his teammates to qualify out of their group.


    Zachary listened attentively, nodding his head in agreement. "I know. It''s going to be tough," he said with a sigh. "But I''m up for the challenge."


    Emily smiled at his determination. "I have no doubt that you''ll give it your all," she said with a reassuring hand on his arm. "You''ve got this."


    Zachary grinned, feeling grateful for Emily''s support. "Thanks," he said. "I''m hoping for some good results from the World Cup."


    As their conversation continued, Emily asked Zachary about his travel ns. He told her he was leaving on Wednesday and had a busy schedule ahead of him. He was set to meet his Ivorian teammates in Edinburgh and y a friendly game against Scond on June 7th before heading to Russia for the World Cup.


    "Wow, that''s quite the itinerary," Emily said, impressed. "You must be excited."


    "I am," Zachary replied with a smile. "I can''t wait to get started."


    Emily wished him all the best and promised to watch his games closely. "I''ll be rooting for you," she said with a grin.


    Zachary thanked her again and watched as she and Miss Heather left. He couldn''t help but feel a mix of excitement and nerves as he thought about the challenges ahead. But with his wide array of football skills and boundless determination, he knew he was ready to take on the world.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
