At this moment, Alex finally understood.
The value of the island.
This was a treasure trove! An unparalleled treasure.
A completely new species. It wasn't one that ordinary people couldn't tell apart.
It was a giant lobster, just like the legends!
This kind of thing could bring a huge amount of wealth.
Alex's eyes turned red.
She'd asked Chen Zhao before.
If she could enter.
But Chen Zhao's answer was that she didn't have enough money and couldn't enter.
But it was different now. She had more than 300 million dollars.
She definitely had the right to enter.
Alex took out her phone and dialed Chen Zhao's number. "Chen, I found something amazing on the island."
"No matter what you found, it's mine."
"Boss, you know what's here?"
"Do you really think I'd throw dollars into the water?"
Alex took a deep breath. She was sure that Chen Zhao already knew what was here.
Perhaps his team had discovered these creatures a long time ago and calculated that the island might float up.
So, he'd spent five million dollars to buy this area.
She had to admit that if it were her, she'd do the same thing.
"Oh, boss, when should we expose this?"
"Isn't there a research ship? Let them do it," Chen Zhao said.
"Got it." Alex nodded.
Glancing at the camera that the security guard had snatched away, she said to the bodyguard, "Forget it. Give it back."
The security guard glanced at the staff member he'd kicked. "You're lucky."
"Chase them out," Alex said. Alex said, "Send more people. Sink all the ships that approach this area without permission."
"You can't do this …"
"We have the right to stay here."
The security guards didn't give them a chance. They kicked and shoved the team members away.
…
That afternoon, the media all over the world reposted a piece of news.
There was also a photo and a short video attached to the article.
The photo was of a giant lobster.
There was also a line of text.
Then the world went crazy.
Such a giant lobster. Was this not CGI?
In addition, there was a video of a turtle that was more than six meters long slowly crawling out of the sea.
However, the video was too short.
Meanwhile, Steven, Rasfa, Risfar, Amira, Dell, and Zola all called Chen Zhao like crazy.
"Steven, I've already told everyone to come to my place for a meeting. Don't call again, or I'll block you. They'll be here soon."
Not long after, all six of them finally arrived.
Everyone couldn't wait to get first-hand information.
Although the appearance of a new island was novel, similar things had happened in the past, and more than once, so its value was not high.
However, in today's news that was spreading like wildfire all over the world, the things revealed by that photo and that video were too precious.
"Alright, quiet down," Chen Zhao shouted. "Are you guys going to let me talk?"
These people all seemed to have fallen into money. They didn't give Chen Zhao a chance to speak at all.
"Here's most of the information on the island." Chen Zhao tossed the prepared documents before everyone.
Everyone fought with each other, directly tearing apart the information.
Chen Zhao crossed his legs and ignored them.
In the end, Steven was the first to get the torn information.
Giant Lobster: Up to 3.5 meters long, 2.8 meters tall when standing upright, 580 kilograms in weight. Scavengers, not aggressive towards living creatures.
Giant Turtle: Up to 6.5 meters long, 4.8 meters wide, 2,800 kilograms in weight. Feeds on small and medium-sized fish. Not aggressive towards humans.
Giant Crab: Up to 4 meters long, 660 kilograms in weight. Omnivorous, not aggressive towards humans.
Giant Eel: Up to 18 meters long, 1.8 meters wide, 3,900 kilograms in weight. All living creatures are their targets. Extremely aggressive.
Ichthyosaur: Social amphibian. Up to 30 centimeters long, 15 kilograms in weight. Vegetarian. Knows how to use simple tools. Intelligence is close to that of primates.
Everyone looked at the information on the information as if they were looking at a new world of novelty.
There were five new species recorded on it, and each of them was very special.
Just imagine, it was like the dinosaur island in the movie Jurassic World.
Once a complete tourism industry was established, there would be an endless stream of tourists.
This island was a treasure trove, a mountain of gold that hadn't been developed yet.
Everyone present was a smart person, and they knew how valuable this island was.
"The island is too small," Risfar said. "We need to fill the sea, but we can't destroy the island's ecology."
Risfar was a businessman and had a clear mind.
He knew that the island's greatest treasure was its unique ecology.
However, the island was too small. It couldn't accommodate too many tourists.
A high-quality tourist island not only had all kinds of facilities, but it also had to have a certain amount of space.
If tourists came to the island and found it crowded, they would only lose interest.
"Okay, let's talk about the share distribution," Chen Zhao said. "I want 30% of the 200 million, and you guys can split the remaining 70%. Also, this is just for buying shares. You need money to build the island too. The money will be used to buy shares."
Among them, Zola had the least assets. Even including her Baroness brand, she only had two billion dollars in assets. She didn't even have a hundred million dollars in cash.
However, the opportunity to make money was right in front of her. She didn't want to give it up.
No, this wasn't a chance to make money. It was a chance to leave a legacy for a hundred years.
"Zola, how much cash can you take out?" Rasfa asked in a low voice.
The father and daughter had different identities, but they were father and daughter after all. They had to make up for each other at critical times.
"100 million," Zola said in a low voice.
"How come so little? Didn't Chen Zhao tell you about this before? "
"He did, but I didn't think much about it."
Rasfa was upset, but he didn't take it to heart.
That wasn't the whole truth. He still kept an eye on Chen Zhao.
He felt that Chen Zhao wouldn't lie to him, so he still kept 500 million.
Therefore, he only had 500 million USD on hand.
Amelia's wealth was probably the highest after Risfar's.
However, a large portion of her money was used to pay for Chen Zhao's gold purchase.
Therefore, she didn't have much cash to use.
Of course, it wasn't that she couldn't afford it if she included her other businesses.
However, the businesses that could be used to pay were all high-quality businesses that wouldn't be sold easily.
Chen Zhao had told them so early because he wanted to give them enough time to prepare.
He wanted them to have enough time to accumulate cash and liquidate some secondary and tertiary businesses.
Chen Zhao wouldn't accept them if they used secondary and tertiary businesses as payment.
