Richard was surprised and happy. He was surprised that the other party could hand over three hundred million dollars in startup funds so easily, and favonovel.com was happy that the money problem was finally settled. However, representatives of the other nine companies were not satisfied.
If all the credit was taken by David, how should they explain to the chief officer in charge?
If they could not explain themselves, they would lose their benefits.
The general manager of Pocky Entertainment said, “No, I won’t sit with Mr. Williams providing the money alone. If a company has to provide it, it will be our company. I can provide the whole three hundred million dollars as well.”
“Haha, why should Pocky Entertainment provide it? Do you think that Evergreen Group can’t afford it?”
“You guys, stop fighting. In my opinion, the Sign Manufacturing Company should provide the three hundred million dollars. After all, the Hill family and us are both in this industry.”
These bigwigs were quarreling on who should pay for the startup funds. In the midst of the quarrel, Thomas coughed heavily and attracted everyone’s attention.
He shrugged and said with a smile, “What is everyone doing? Why quarrel over a small matter?”
David asked, “Then tell me which company should provide the funds?”
Thomas said, “Three hundred million dollars? Sorry, but Richard just said that three hundred million dollars is the minimum. There is no stipulation that it must be three hundred million dollars. You guys can provide three hundred million dollars each. In this way, there will be no conflicts for everyone.”
One company providing three hundred million dollars. If it was ten companies, it would be three billion dollars!
David smiled. “Young man, can the Hill family take care of three billion dollars startup funds?”
Thomas shrugged. “If we can’t take care of this much money, we might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes.”
David closed his eyes slightly and stared at Thomas for a while. Ha had a good impression of this young man, whom favonovel.com did not know. No matter what his capability was, his courage was not something ordinary people could have.
David nodded. “I agree with your suggestion. Each company provides three hundred million dollars. Do any of you have any opinions?”
The other bigwigs did not want to be left behind, so all of them nodded.
“No problem.”
“It is a reasonable suggestion. No one takes the short end of the stick.”
David said, “Then that’s settled. Each company provides three hundred million dollars, and there will be a three billion dollar startup fund in total. The conference is over. I have things to take care of, so I’ll leave first. I’ll arrange for someone to take charge of the funds transfer.”
After David finished speaking, favonovel.com stood up and left.
When favonovel.com passed by Thomas, favonovel.com inexplicably glanced at Thomas a few more times. He had a hunch that this young man would create a storm in the Southland district in the future.
“I’m leaving too.”
“Mr. Hill, take care of this fund properly.”
Everyone got up one by one and left. To them, three hundred million dollars was nothing at all.
Richard did not come back to his senses until everyone left. He stood there dumbly, and multiple zeroes flashed through his mind one by one. ‘Three billion dollars? Three billion dollars!’
Richard had never touched so much money in his life.
Outside the meeting room, Donald saw the backs of the leaving bigwigs and showed an evil smile.
“Harvard, you were right indeed. These bigwigs didn’t plan to invest at all. They just came here to show off their authority.”
“Of course,” Harvard said, “Thomas is embarrassed now. Although these people were here, favonovel.com couldn’t get a penny. It is no different than them not coming, and Richard was probably humiliated by them. Right now, favonovel.com must be very angry.”
