Okay. Luxbrant is a huge player

in the luxury brand market.

They own a ton of high-end labels,

everything from clothing to furniture.

Recently, there have been rumors,

loud rumors, that they

have been using child labor,

which triggered an investigation

into their finances by

the Treasury Department.

Now, Luxbrant claims

that the allegations

and the investigation

have been engineered

by one of their competitors,

the Banomar Group,

in an effort to t*nk their stocks

so the Banomar Group can swoop in

and pick them up on the cheap.

That just simply is not true.

But Luxbrant needs it to be true

in order to make this

investigation go away.

So pretty simple,

right? All we need to do is

suggest that the Banomar Group

and the Treasury Department investigator

are somehow in bed together.

Nothing tawdry,

just a few photographs

to feed the narrative

and squash the investigation.

For that, we get three percent of

the buy price to split with Arda.

And what's the ballpark on that?

I'll give you some perspective.

A few years ago, Michael Kors

bought Versace for $2 billion.

This will be like buying ten Versaces.

and most likely never would.

It's our job to make sure that

they do and get it on camera.

Mr. Homm has been visiting
