Chapter 659
"Alright! You've got to come!" Sharon was afraid Carlisle would stand her up, so she reminded him once more.
Carlisle hung up and continued with the meeting.
His intense eyes swept over everyone, and he asked indifferently, "Do you have any more questions?"
Felicia and Lilian looked at Hamish Fuller, the head of the investment department.
The meeting didn't have much to do with Felicia and Lilian.
They only needed Carlisle to agree, after which they would draft a contract and get the funds from the finance department.
"If Mr. Zahn can trust him, there'll be no problem." Hamish was 35 years old and had graduated from Sunnyside University with a degree in investment.
After he graduated, his mentor introduced him to a job in a capital company as an investment consultant.
In five years, he had been promoted from a consultant to a manager.
Three years ago, he resigned and returned to the country to start a wealth management company.
However, things didn't go well for long. The company had just been established when there was a global pandemic.
For two years, everyone had been fighting for their own survival. The company hadn't managed to get a single client from the time of its establishment until the day it closed down. Hamish had ended up spending all the savings that he had accumulated while working for five years.
In the second half of the previous year, Hamish closed the company down and took a break for a while. After that, he noticed Anthony on the forums, and through Anthony, he joined Aurora Holdings.
As Aurora Holdings wasn't planning to open up for external investments yet, Anthony arranged a position for him as head of investments.
Carlisle stood up and said, "That's settled then. Alistair, go to Yorksle and register the company tomorrow. Mr. Fuller, please follow up on this project. Within three days, you must transfer the investment funds to Alistair."
"Give the company a name, Mr. Zahn." Alistair suddenly spoke up from Carlisle's right.
"BeautyTeam." Carlisle did not even hesitate.
Alistair scowled as he muttered, "What does that have to do with food delivery services?" Carlisle wanted to retort and say that Alistair should have the answer to that question. "You can come up with a name, then. I'll take care of the funds for investment and decide on a direction for development," Carlisle said before leaving the office.
Alistair thought about changing the name of the company while setting it up, but in the end, he stuck with the one that Carlisle had given him.
He felt that the word "beauty" had a good meaning, while the word "team" emphasized the importance of their team.
The team was always the most important part of setting up a company. The mindset of the team would be an important factor in success.noveldrama
At the Imperial Hotel, Sharon and Sophia were taking photos by the musical fountain in the plaza outside.
Sophia was holding a Canon A75 digital camera, which had only been released to the public the year before.
Selena gave it to her as a gift after she managed to get into university. It was worth approximately 2400 dollars.
It always caused a commotion when she took it out in class.
"Alright, Sharon! It's your turn to take photos for me." Sophia ran over and gave Sharon the camera. "You've used it before, so you know how to take photos with it, right?"
Sharon nodded and said, "I know how to use it!"
She went to the spot where Sophia had been standing before that and began adjusting the focus. "Strike a pose, Sophia!"
Sophia cocked her hip and pouted for the camera as she raised her right hand in a victory sign.
It was a trendy pose at the time, and it would still be trendy ten years from now.
"I've taken the photo!" Sharon ran happily back to Sophia.
Sophia looked at the photo and said proudly, "I look so pretty!"
Sharon giggled and said, "I take pretty good photos, don't I?"
"Yes, it's pretty good! I'll go and find someone to help us take one together!"
Sophia looked around, and her gaze alighted on a young man who was on the phone while he stood next to the fountain.
The young man was dressed in a suit and wore glasses. He looked like the perfect gentleman.
When Sophia looked at him, the young man just happened to finish his call and look up. "Hello, mister! Could you help us take a photo?" Sophia waved at him, smiling sweetly. "Alright." The young man pushed his glasses up his nose and walked over.
