"There's no need to care about the city council. Is there anything I don't know about?" William asked curiously.
"Haha, that's right. Last month, there was a district road renovation project that had been delayed for almost two years. It started without the approval of the city council. In these difficult times, there are people who are willing to pay for the road repairs. Those district residents don't care about the city council that hasn't agreed after two years. They can agree on their own. At most, they'll be fined tens of thousands of pounds."
"The district council agreed, and the results were good. The only thing the London government can do is fine them. William, you don't care about a dozen or two or three hundred thousand pounds, do you?" Prince Charles said with a smile.
"Of course, it's just that little money. If they want, I'm even willing to let them fine me every month, as long as they don't bother me."
"Hahaha," Everyone shook their heads and laughed. Grosvenor teased, "I heard that some district councilors don't have any subsidies other than their salary. If your words get out, those poorer county councilors in the periphery of Greater London might really have this idea."
William, who was listening to Sunday's good news, smirked and said with a smile, "Who cares, I'll just treat it as a good thing."
According to Sunday's preliminary estimate, although the area of the new stadium would be three times the size of the old one, the time and labor costs would be much lower because it was much easier to demolish the buildings in the residential area.
With the current plummeting prices and labor costs, the new stadium would only need about 300 million USD if it was completed within two years. Of course, if it was more than two years, Sunday believed that the cost would be 100 million USD for each additional year.
As for the new district built on the old Stamford Stadium, Sunday estimated that three 20-story residential buildings with four to eight units could be built without affecting the lighting. He only needed two of them to compensate Grosvenor, and he could keep the other one for himself.
In addition, a hotel, commercial street, and office area could be built around the stadium. In short, it would not cost 500 million pounds.
The residential building that was left behind might be worth hundreds of millions of pounds in less than four or five years.
After laughing for a while, William calculated in his heart. "I'm now valued at 5 billion pounds for the bulletproof goods company. You and Grosvenor shouldn't have any objections, right?"
"William, that's not very nice of you. The price is too high." Grosvenor shook his head.
"Let me show you something." William didn't explain. Under the puzzled gazes of the four people present, he took out his phone and turned on the screen. After a quick scan, he placed it on the coffee table in front of him.
With two buzzing sounds, a two-meter-tall beam of light shot out from the back of the phone, followed by Sunday's voice. "Good evening, gentlemen. My name is Sunday, and I'm Mr. Devonshire's personal AI butler. Let me introduce the sales of the new bulletproof vests and the new products."
"Hmm, what's this?" Wilson couldn't hold it in anymore. Looking at the projection in the sci-fi movie, Wilson asked William, "Is this holographic technology?"
"That's right. This thing has been around since 47 years ago. There's nothing to be surprised about, Wilson."
"God, you actually said there's nothing to be surprised about. Do you even understand the prospects of this technology?" Wilson covered his forehead and looked at William, who didn't seem to care.
Ignoring the aristocratic etiquette, he walked to William's side and sat on the armrest of the sofa. He said excitedly, "Buddy, how about we develop this technology? Forget about the bulletproof suit. In my opinion, this technology has a much better future than this damn suit.
Just by looking at this technology, there will definitely be venture capitalists willing to value it at a billion dollars. If we can develop some practical technology or products, the market value will immediately reach tens of billions, or even tens of billions. "
"What?" Not only were King Philip, Prince Charles, and Grosvenor surprised, even William was a little surprised. "This technology is really that valuable?"
"Of course, God, what is your brain made of?" Wilson grabbed William's arm and explained, "I remember that before Christmas last year, the high school I studied in held a promotion exhibition about the future of technology. When the technician introduced the virtual imaging technology, they used a lot of equipment to project a dancing figure."
Wilson pointed at the image of the suit projected by the phone. "But that figure was much blurrier than this, and it could only be seen at a specific angle. When you turned to the side and back, you couldn't see it at all.
Look at now, you can see it clearly from every angle, and you don't even need any other equipment to meet God. It's so clear just by using a phone. God, this is a real 3D holographic projection system.
I remember that the technician said that if you can project your image to where you want to go through satellites or other instruments and still be able to speak, then all the mobile phone and telephone companies will be finished.
And the new company with this technology will step on the corpses of these communication companies to become the company with the highest market value in the world. This is just a part of the civil use, not to mention that this technology can also be used in the military and technology. God, you will become the richest man in the world. William, take me with you. Any condition, even if you want Kensington Palace, it won't be a problem. "
"Forget it. I remember that Kensington Palace belongs to a foundation that serves the royal family. Even if your father, Prince Charles, wants to sell it, he can't," William said as he looked at Prince Charles, who was calm and silent, but his eyes betrayed him.
When Prince Charles saw William looking at him, he held back his excitement and said, "Kensington Palace definitely can't be sold. It's a protected building. Even I only have the right to use it and a part of the property rights. However, William, if you want a villa or manor in a good area, it's not like you don't have a choice."
"Thank you, but don't worry about it. My men are talking to an owner on Kensington Street. The villa seems to be priced at 160 million US dollars, with 12 rooms and 20 parking spaces. I didn't pay attention to the name."
"Hey, now that you mention it, I know who it is. It's very close to the villa on Kensington Garden Street that my father gave me. It's only a five-minute walk. Buddy, we'll be neighbors from now on. It'll be much more convenient for me and my brother, Harry, to find you," Wilson said happily.
"Alright, let's get down to business first, Wilson." King Philip understood the principle of having a bird in the hand was better than having two in the bush. Now was not the time to talk about the Holographic Projection Technology. They had to eat the meat that they could see first.
"William, name your price. Tell me how I can get shares of the bulletproof goods company."
"You know that I don't lack money."
Philip interrupted William. "Of course, I never thought that I could buy the original shares in your hands with money, so tell me what you want."
After thinking for a moment, William said, "I want shares of the English Power Company. 10% of the new company's original shares in exchange for 20% of the English Power Company's shares."
