I've found him, Mr. Winch.

In the heart of the Burmese jungle.

In a Karen village.

Largo has been living there for three months.

He met her when illegally crossing the Thai-Burmese border.

She took him to her village, wounded, and he never left.

Go back there. And keep your eye on him.

What if he never came home?

Don't be absurd, Freddy.

He'll have to come out of hiding one day.

Whether he likes it or not, Largo is my heir.

THREE YEARS LATER

Raised in secrecy for almost 30 years, the adopted son of Nario Winch

is in the spotlight today following the violent death of his father,

the heir of a multinational group with almost 400 thousand employees worldwide.

Today, Largo Winch is one of the most powerful men on the planet.

But does Largo Winch have what it takes to run an empire of that size?

- All I know is we know nothing about him. - We can only judge on his action.

Calling Cochrane back was an excellent decision.

Dwight Cochrane is a brilliant manager with a

long-standing reputation of his cool-headedness.

Oh my God! Oh my God!

AUTONOMOUS REPUBLIC OF BASHKORTOSTAN

"GPS: Find airport."

You humiliated Nazatchov before the press!

He'll never forgive you.

Find that son-of-a-bitch Winch for me!

And the journalist bitch, too!

Why did you need to save her?

Would you rather I'd been killed?

"Find the airport!"

Forgive me, my Cyrillic is rusty!

I'll do it.

I don't want to die here!

I have a wife! Four children! A career!

I went to Harvard! I'm a practising Presbyterian!

GPS calculating route.

Turn left.

I think you're right, Nazatchov is a bit cross.

It's your fault! You baited Nazatchov with your questions!

I was doing my job as a journalist!

- GPS re-calculating route. - I have a job too, Missy!

I manage a group with 392,000 employees!

Nazatchov exploits and traffics!

Either we sign with Nazatchov or we lay off...

Keep to the left.

Turn right in 600 feet.

- Holy shit! - Hang on tight.

- Make U-turn in 300 feet. - What are you doing?

Make U-turn when possible.

Your jet is surrounded by police.

Forget the airport.

Nazatchov will never let us leave alive.

He runs the entire country!

- And that's Alright with you? - Shut up, would you!

I know a mercenary, he'll save us.

Lazarevic. An expert in crisis situations.

Very costly but highly efficient...

- Hey! - Let me do my job!

I'm the one paying for your job. You do what I say.

Customer's always right.

You Bosnians are too sentimental!

Beware of clichés, they sometimes end in massacres!

Today, this young man who's appeared from out of nowhere wields considerable power.

But how will he use it, only he can say for sure.

LAKE GENEVA, SWITZERLAND

- Hello. - Good day, sir.

- I'm here for Mr. Jung. - He's waiting for you.

Tell him to come in.

Thank you for receiving me.

At last I meet you.

- Mr. Jung, it's time for your shot. - Later.

Later, I said.

She's always on my back.

You'd think she was in love! Come here.

Look at this. This photo was taken here.

Handsome, weren't we?

You were my father's only friend...

His oldest, there's no doubt.

This photo dates back to October 1947.

He was fresh from Yugoslavia with his mother.

They lived here, in the attic rooms.

Your grandmother worked for my parents until she died.

My grandmother?

Nerio's mother.

Your grandmother, Largo!

I was one of the only people who knew of your existence.

Nerio often complained to me about you running away.

About your lack of gratitude towards him...

It's true,

father and son relations are complex.

Nerio didn't want a son. He wanted an heir.

He left me no choice.

But the fortune he left me... I'll use it my way.

I read your letter.

Your project is fabulous.

As former Red Cross President,

I can only encourage you, but...

But?

The men who run this world all have humanitarian foundations.

That's nothing new.

The rich give to the poor,

but only a little.

Very little.

Putting your entire fortune at the service of humanitarian causes

will upset the established order. Good.

And you will create many enemies. Very many enemies.

And very powerful ones.

"A man with no enemies is no man at all."

Bosnian proverb.

Don't make light of my words.

Mr. Jung?

Mr. Jung?

The needle... The needle!

I'm happy to have met you.

You'll be all right.

My wife died of cancer ten years ago.

My only son died in an accident when he'd just turned thirty.

No one needs me anymore.

I need you.

- I'll meet you downstairs. - Just give me two seconds.

See you later, Steve.

Brian.

Don't start.

Hong Kong was without a doubt the place to be today.

Largo Winch had a big surprise for journalists at this press conference.

I have decided to sell the W Group.

The money from this sell will be entirely re-invested in a Nario Winch Foundation.

It will be dedicated to humanitarian projects,

- scientific research... - He's sexy.

...and any good ideas we could come up. I think he's gonna be a tough one.

if you've got any ideas, we're listening.

The financial world has been rocked!

Nerio Winch's heir will...

An ambitious project...

...the Nario Winch Foundation now has a president, the esteemed Alexander Jung,

former president of the International Committee of the Red Cross.

He shows a frankly youthful enthusiasm

when he speaks of the foundation and its project...

You've given me a reason to live.

The captain informs us that we've left territorial waters.

Thank you, Gauthier.

I'll open the champagne, sir! For the occasion, I've chilled

a bottle of Grand Siecle 1981, which was given to your father

by Mikhail Gorbachev at the opening of the Minsk paper factory.

Of course, in this overcast weather,

rosa champagne might be more appropriate.

I have a Laurent Perrier 2003...

Gauthier, anything you like.

Very well, sir.

If you please?

There you are!

No regrets, Largo?

This agreement is irrevocable.

Your access to W Group accounts will be frozen as soon as you sign.

Prior to the final sale, you'll be a poor man again.

It's a classic contract.

Kromberg Partners guarantees you a buyer within two months.

Moreover, the sales price is indexed

on your stock value, on the day of the sale.

If the sale took place today,

that would come to approximately 53 billion, Mr. Winch.

That's all?

Should your value rise, you could hope for a bit more...

I'm joking Mr. Beaumont.

Please initial the pages and sign.

Why are we signing the contract at sea?

It allows us to sign the agreement

as if we were in the Swiss offices of Kromberg Partners.

With full Swiss tax advantages.

And a signature...

Hong Kong Marine Police, stop immediately!

I repeat, Hong Kong Marine Police, stop immediately!

Back off!

Go!

- This is an act of piracy. - Return to your craft.

We're going to carry out a search of the boat.

You're in international waters. We have all the required authorizations.

Who're these people?

Who are you?
