morning.

The Presidential Suite at the Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong.

Arthur Grant kept his word, and at nine o'clock in the morning, a professional team of twelve people arrived at the hotel on time.

The team members come from Grant Private Bank’s London, Zurich and Singapore locations, and include private bankers, tax lawyers, trust advisors, cross-border M&A experts and asset allocation managers.

There were no unnecessary pleasantries.

After the meeting began, the other party placed a global asset structure plan directly in front of Chen Mo.

The biggest problem with generative investment right now is not returns, but over-concentration.

The five billion dollars are mainly distributed in the derivatives accounts of Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley.

Even though the transaction has been settled, if any one of the institutions faces regulatory investigations, credit risks, or account restrictions, it could affect hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in liquidity.

This clearly does not meet the security standards of a global consortium.

"Mr. Chen, true wealth should not be kept in a particular bank."

Joseph, the chief private banker for Grant's team, said:

"Banks are just channels, not safe havens."

Chen Mo nodded slightly.

He agreed with that statement.

After a full day of discussion, the assets under Chuangsheng were re-divided.

$500 million was transferred to Grant Private Bank as a European asset trust and credit account.

$800 million was retained by Merrill Lynch for investment in U.S. securities, foreign exchange, and derivatives trading.

$700 million remained with Goldman Sachs, where he was responsible for global mergers and acquisitions, block trades in stocks, and structured products.

$600 million remained with Morgan Stanley as a multi-currency fund pool and a US stock financing platform.

$300 million was transferred to Standard Chartered to handle day-to-day settlements in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Asia.

The $500 million was deposited in UBS, HSBC, DBS Singapore and other institutions as independent cash reserves.

Another billion US dollars are allocated to short-term US Treasury bonds, German government bonds, gold, and high-grade money market funds.

No single institution can control more than 20% of Genesis Investment’s assets.

Even if one of the banks suddenly freezes an account, it will not affect the operation of the entire capital system.

Grant Private Bank also opened a top-tier global private wealth account for Chen Mo.

The account has no public tier and no traditional bank card limit.

The accompanying black metal card only had Chen Mo's English name and a very short number printed on it.

"It's not a credit card, it's an identity document," Arthur explained in a video call.

"Grant Private Bank's global partners, private airports, hotels, art dealers, and family offices will all endorse it."

"It's not backed by a fixed limit, but by your assets and credit at Grant Private Bank."

Chen Mo played with the card for a moment, then casually put it into his wallet.

Five hundred million dollars bought more than just an account; it bought a pass to the credit system of Europe's long-established private banking system.

At this point, the risk of account concentration brought about by the Swiss franc crisis has been largely eliminated.

Creation Capital has finally transformed from an offshore company relying on a few trading accounts into a global capital platform with multi-country custody, auditing, trust, and trading channels.

in the afternoon.

The presidential suite's study.

A huge world map covered the long table.

Lu Jingyi stood by the table, looking at the string of company names that Chen Mo had written down.

Nvidia, Amazon, Apple, SMIC, JCET, SpaceX, Bitcoin.

She was silent for a few seconds, then finally couldn't help but ask:

"Xiao Mo, are you planning to buy up the entire tech industry?"

"Money kept in the bank will only become someone else's bargaining chip."

Chen Mo picked up a pen and drew a line under Nvidia's name.

"Next, Creation will transform a portion of its financial profits into long-term control over the technology industry."

He left behind a billion dollars to continue operating in global foreign exchange, index futures, and commodities.

He personally controls this portion of the funds, does not accept external fundraising, and does not participate in daily industrial investments.

The remaining funds were then channeled into global public markets and primary investment.

"Apple and Amazon have sufficient liquidity, so we can gradually build positions through the open market."

"Nvidia's current market capitalization is not large, so purchases must be made in a diversified manner to avoid triggering shareholding disclosure quickly and to avoid alerting management."

Lu Jingyi asked, "How many shares does the target company hold?"

"The first phase will not exceed 5%."

Once the critical disclosure threshold is crossed, it becomes very difficult for Genesis to remain hidden.

Moreover, what Chen Mo needs now is to accumulate experience in a low-key manner, not to go to the Nvidia boardroom and announce that he comes from the future.

What about SMIC and JCET?

"Establishing positions through Jianing Holdings and independent shell companies."

Chen Mo said, "In addition to secondary market shares, we also need to study the possibilities of private placements, industry funds, and board seats."

"The semiconductor industry will not be just a short-lived boom. In the next decade, chips will become one of the most important battlegrounds for great power competition."

Lu Jingyi quickly took notes.

"How will the specific amount be arranged?"

"Nvidia, initial investment of $300 million."

"Amazon and Apple, $500 million each."

"SMIC and JCET Group, a combined $300 million."

Lu Jingyi looked up: "With Nvidia's current size, three hundred million US dollars is already enough to easily attract market attention."

So don't rush.

Chen Mo looked at her: "Complete it in six to twelve months, absorbing shares through different accounts and shell companies. Public disclosure must be done in accordance with the law, but do not leave obvious traces of concentrated buying before the disclosure requirements are met."

"clear."

Lu Jingyi then looked at SpaceX.

"This company is not publicly listed and has no shortage of ordinary investors."

"Therefore, we need Grant's connections."

Chen Mo was well aware that SpaceX equity was far more difficult to acquire than publicly traded stocks.

Musk will not easily hand over core shares just because Creation has money.

"Connect with early shareholders, employee stock ownership platforms, and funds that are preparing to exit."

"Don't pursue control."

"Even if it's just a 1% chance to get in, it's worth it as long as it's the first step."

Lu Jingyi nodded gently.

Her gaze finally settled on the words "Bitcoin".

"Xiao Mo, you still believe in this kind of thing?"

At this time, Bitcoin had just experienced a prolonged slump.

Trading platform collapses, regulatory controversies, and price crashes have led most traditional financial institutions to view them as geek toys or even digital code with no real value.

"It's not about believing."

Chen Mo said calmly, "It's the configuration."

He is well aware that the current Bitcoin market is extremely small.

If Genesis were to directly buy up hundreds of millions of dollars worth of goods, it would not only drive prices sky-high, but it might also fail to acquire enough shares and expose its true intentions.

"A separate digital asset team will be established subsequently."

"Acquisitions were made slowly through multiple compliant platforms and over-the-counter dealers."

"The initial budget is $50 million."

"Holdings are distributed into cold wallets and multi-signature is used. No single individual can complete the transfer."

"Fifty million?" Lu Jingyi asked. "Isn't that too little compared to the scale of assets created?"

"This market can't absorb any more right now."

Chen Mo closed his pen.

"Buying too much is not investing; it's just carrying the burden for all the existing shareholders."

"Establish a position first. Then gradually add more as the market expands."

Looking at the list on the table, Lu Jingyi gradually understood Chen Mo's thinking.

These investments may seem scattered, but they are all directed towards the most core infrastructure.

Information, computing power, chips, cloud computing, space, digital assets.

"Xiao Mo".

Lu Jingyi was already used to Chen Mo's recent actions, wondering where he had learned so many things.

She looked up at him, bewildered, and asked, "What kind of company do you want to build?"

Chen Mo rarely saw Lu Jingyi with such an adorable expression, so he couldn't help but pinch her cheek and say, "I'm going to start a conglomerate, and in the future, the whole world will remember the name Creation!"

Lu Jingyi was stunned by Chen Mo's words.

For a moment, she didn't even notice that Chen Mo had pinched her cheek.
