Across the Channel, Pierre-douard St�phan, a conservative billionaire, is attempting to spearhead a spiritual and political revival
According to James Mackreides, the planning appears to be very careful.
Le Monde reported last year that conservative billionaire Pierre-douard Strin was "advancing his pawns" in the chess game of hard-right French politics in a very subtle way. According to Politico, Strin, a tax exile living in Belgium, was recently revealed as the driving force and financier of Pericles, "a secret, wide-ranging project aimed at boosting right-wing forces" and reviving "Frances grandeur." In France, the timely release of internal documents that contained the shady group's vow to accomplish "the successful exercise of power at the earliest opportunity" created a stir and sparked a heated debate mixed with conspiracy theories. Numerous opportunities exist for a rerun given the current political unrest in the nation.
Strin is doing everything he can to bring France back to life with his customary prescription of dry economics, retro Catholic morality, and a hardline "re-migration" message that even the Marine Le Pens National Rally party calls "toxic," according to The Times. At the local level, he has invested hundreds of millions of euros, with education being a primary focus. He is planning "a network of Christian private schools" in addition to purging France of "the woke insanity imported from American universities." Additionally, he is an investor in Studio 496, whose goal is to preserve "La France profonde"'s legacy by supporting events like village fetes. Projects that are more obviously political include a training college for potential candidates and a think tank in Paris.
"The billionaire who wants to make France great again" is what some refer to as Elon Musk. Politico claims that he is actually more "eminence grise" when he is pulling strings from the shadows. Strin is renowned for using a specialized Excel spreadsheet to rate new acquaintances on a scale of one to ten. Strin describes himself as an introvert with "a tendency for extreme rationalism." Amandine, his wife, was not an exception. Before asking her to marry him, he evaluated her on a rigid set of marriageability standards. She was fortunate to give birth to a lovely family of five, literally, to her "pronatalist" husband. They won't inherit anything, he tells the French financial weekly Challenges, giving them a tough love upbringing. "To begin life with nothing is a true freedom.
According to The Times, Strin, 51, was raised in a middle-class family in the Normandy town of Evreux, where he started his business career at the age of 13 by selling RAM sticks for video games. Before he found success, he started 20 unsuccessful businesses. Smartbox, a gift box company that specializes in quick breaks, became very well-known and gave him financial influence. These days, Otium Capital, his investment company, owns assets in the tech and health sectors.
Although Strin has made a sizable donation to the Le Pens party, he claims he is keeping his options open because he believes the popularist Rally party is too liberal on social issues like abortion and too tied to the state in its "dirigiste" economic thinking. Politico asserts, however, that the connections are profound. In addition to being "a member of Marine Le Pens inner circle and one of her most trusted advisers," Franois Durvye is the CEO of Strins Otium Fund.
Strin, Pierre-douard, is aiming for heaven.
Strins' wealth is estimated to be £10.6 billion by US standards, making his political generosity seem insignificant. However, France has much stricter laws regarding political donations, and prosecutors have targeted him. The frustrating situation Strin finds himself in now is that he is a wealthy backer looking for a candidate. But for now, he is taking care of his soul. "I am increasing my chances of eternal life by giving away my fortune," he said to the Catholic daily La Croix. He has usually done extensive research on the procedure. On Google, I entered "how to become a saint." It is described as "an ultra-motivating stimulus to get up in the morning."
