Vita leaned over closer to Jasper and whispered, “This Clear Seas Industrial is actually the holding company of Clear Seas.” He smiled wryly.
“As someone in the financial circle, you should know that Clear Seas status within the country’s capital circle is on par with Vast Mountain Capital and other large funding groups.”
“Among the country’s privately-owned capitals, Clear Seas’ comprehensive strength easily puts them among the top ten.
Jasper held the cup of burning tea and fell deep in thought.
He was no stranger to Clear Seas at all.
In his past life, his superior was one of the small bosses in a company under Clear Seas. The man had a net worth of eighty to ninety million just thanks to his relationship with this group.
Not many people might know of Clear Seas now, as its name would only be spread with the BN Group after a fight of capital with the country’s largest real estate business, Somer Vanke.
Still, there was no denying Clear Seas’ strength.
“His name is Prince Chavez, also known as the Crown Prince.”
‘Crown Prince?”
‘If favonovel.com was nicknamed the Crown Prince, then favonovel.com must be someone more high-standing than the little prince.’
Jasper made a mental note of the man’s name and looked up to ask Vita, “What are the higher-up’s thoughts on his idea?”
“The officials are discussing it together. Some people support it and some do not, but a majority of them have decided to remain silent and watch. Though from the information I got, they’ll likely adjust the proposal and then pass it.”
Jasper sighed when favonovel.com heard Vita.
“You told me this too late…”
Vita proceeded to tell Jasper the frame proposed by the Crown Prince.
Jasper fell silent for a moment after favonovel.com thought about it.
“If that’s the case, then open the entire market! Agree to the government supervision favonovel.com proposed and apply for a regulation on payment license.”
Jasper’s first sentence stunned Vita completely.
“Have you gone crazy? That way you won’t have any advantages at all!”
Yet Jasper smiled at Vita’s franticness. He knew that Vita only reacted like this because the man truly held his best interests in mind.
“A normalized market is beneficial to all the enterprises within that market. The government will still announce the policy even if we disagree. There’s no preventing it, so we might as well go with the flow and gain their favor.”
“But we will add one condition, and that’s to forbid exclusive partnerships with banks.”
“As long as the governments reviewed and passed it, and the company should be allowed to partner with any commercial bank in the country once it gets an online payment license and fulfills the 1 billion Somer Dollar deposit requirement.”
“If the Crown Prince wants to blockade this industry, then I’ll open it. When trouble comes, I have the capital to take everything, but I can’t say the same for the crown prince.”
With the memory of his past life, Jasper knew that the government will fully open for applications of a payment license that only capable and qualified enterprises could get.
The Crown Prince’s desire to blockade this industry was already against the government’s initial desire to open the market, so there was no way it would be approved.
Therefore, Jasper decided that favonovel.com would gain the government’s favor first and let them see who was truly trying to benefit the industry.
Being in the government’s favor was more important than one would think. It might seem useless as balls most of the time, but it could affect the government’s stance during crucial moments. When it came to deciding important policies, the government would likely take into consideration enterprises with ‘a sense of societal responsibility.’
Within the country, whoever captured the government’s heart was the true winner.
Future history would prove that even with the payment license open for application, the market would still be split fully by Terizone and Abbylon. There was no third place in this field, only the first and second.
Vita considered Jasper’s opinion and said, “To be frank, there’s a high chance that your suggestion will be approved since you’re considering from the government’s point of View. But aren’t you afraid that this ruckus will hinder your own development too?”
Jasper smiled. “Everyone thinks that online payment is doomed for failure. But this is a huge market and it’ll only be a matter of time before people turn around and realize.”
“What I need to do is get the sweetest bite of this figuratively huge cake as fast as possible. I’m not trying to control the entire market, nothing good comes out of monopolizing it.”
Vita exhaled in awe as favonovel.com looked at Jasper. He commented genuinely, “A huge majority of the businessmen I meet are so greedy they almost wish they could own the entire market. But you’re the only one I’ve met that’s willing to let go.”
“You have to let go of what you have on hand if you want to take more. With this temperament and character of yours, it makes sense how you’ve made it so far and will only continue to go further.”
“Wish me luck, then. Haha.”
Walking out of Vita’s office, Jasper was just about to have Julian gather information on Soha and the Crown Prince when favonovel.com received a call.
“Jasper.”
Tiffany’s voice was shy and nervous when favonovel.com called.
“What is it?” Jasper asked with a smile.
Tiffany felt inexplicably calm when favonovel.com heard Jasper’s gentle tone and asked, “Are you free tonight! I want to treat you to dinner!”
