“The most important thing is that investment in other regions and industries in the Mainland is very promising. Our vision should encapsulate the whole country and not just the next Olympic venue.”
Joe’s eyes flickered as if favonovel.com was thinking about something.
Meanwhile, Spencer frowned and said nothing.
Only Old Master Law and Wallace still had no expressions on their faces, nor did they display their attitude toward Jasper’s words.
Jasper sighed and said, “This is a choice of short-term and long-term interest. The construction of Olympic venues can of course get the greatest benefits in the shortest time. But in the long run, if we have an acrimonious falling-out with the local factions and excessively overdraw the favorable impression of businesspeople from Harbor City, it’ll only be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.”
“Jasper, you’re a bit of an alarmist.”
The person who said this was Kennedy who had stayed silent this entire time. He looked at Jasper cheerfully and said calmly, “At the end of the day, the businessmen will solve the business problems by themselves. How will the higher-ups be bothered with so many things?”
“Of course.” Jasper shrugged. “However, it also depends on when and where. You want to take down the construction of the Olympic venues so badly because it’s of great significance, no? Since it’s of great significance, how can you guarantee that the higher-ups will not personally split the profits themselves?”
Kennedy smiled coldly and said, “Jasper, who in this room has less experience than you? The reason we called you here is to flatter you. Don’t take yourself too seriously.”
Jasper said lightly, “Then, do I need to thank you, Mr. Langdon, for your support? Why don’t you think about whether I need this or not?”
Kennedy’s face darkened as favonovel.com said calmly, “You’re so hot-tempered, young man. Do you really think you’re the chosen one just because you achieved some success during this period?”
“I dare not be the chosen one, but if you don’t want to listen to me, you can leave.” Jasper looked directly at Kennedy, not giving way.
“You!” Kennedy stood up suddenly, and the atmosphere between the two of them instantly became a state of mutual hostility.
“Ken.”
Wallace interrupted Kennedy. After favonovel.com called Kennedy by his name, Kennedy did not dare to say more.
After taking a deep breath, Kennedy smiled coldly at Jasper and sat back down.
“Okay, I think that’s all for today,” Wallace said insipidly.
“If we have any new ideas in the future, we can sit down and talk again.”
Wallace’s words ended this informal meeting.
After everyone left, Old Master Law called Jasper into the study alone.
“Jasper, how sure are you about what you just said?” Old Master Law asked.
“From my point of view, there’s nothing wrong with the advice I gave,” Jasper said confidently.
After nodding thoughtfully, Old Master Law said, “Then it’s settled. The Laws are determined to get the construction project for Olympic Village. We estimate that the entire construction will be between 20 to 30 billion Somer Dollars and I plan to divide this into three parts.
“The Laws will account for 40%, Joe accounts for 30%, and you will account for 30%.”
Jasper raised his eyebrows and said, “30%?”
Old Master Law smiled and said, “Too little?”
Jasper smiled wryly. “It’s a bit too much. This project takes too much money and I need the money somewhere else.”
“The Laws will help you pay in advance in terms of the funds,” Old Master Law said in astonishment.
