That was right, it was Dean who was on the video call with the little prince.
Dean maintained a humble smile on the screen. He said softly, “Before we start, I have a question that I want to ask you, Little Prince.”
“I wonder how highly you rate Jasper’s chances of beating Wall Street’s Quantum Fund is this time.”
The little prince chuckled and replied, “I asked you to put out enough bargaining chips for me to talk to you. This is a test for you.”
“You told me that within two trading days of the opening, Lord Alvarado will inevitably have a conflict with Jasper. Sure enough, what you predicted happened on the very first trading day.”
“You passed my test, then you threw a question back to me. Is this a test for me?”
Dean answered in a warm voice, “I dare not test you, Little Prince, but before we can confirm our cooperation, both of us must reach a consensus on certain issues.”
“At least, our view of the upcoming situation needs to be consistent, which will also facilitate the development of our future cooperation.”
The little prince narrowed his eyes slightly. One could not tell how much favonovel.com believed this statement.
“Almost zero.”
After some contemplation, the little prince gave Dean his judgment.
Dean smiled and said, “However, from the current trend, there seems to be some back and forth from both sides.”
“Although Lord Alvarado’s foolishness caused a lot of losses for the center in Waterhoof City, the damage is far from critical.”
“Meanwhile, Quantum Fund’s offensive is currently blocked by Jasper’s main funds. In the current situation, the two sides are stuck in a deadlock. Why are you so pessimistic?”
“It’s meaningless to waste your breath on this kind of obvious issue.” The little prince waved his hand and said, “Behind Quantum Fund is the capital of the entire Wall Street!”
“So far, Quantum Fund has only used their own power. Wall Street capital aside, even the investment banks behind it have not yet begun to enter the market, yet Jasper has now reached the point of touching his primary capital.”
“The opponent still has a few cards left to play, but Jasper is about to show all of his cards. The power gap between the two sides is far greater than I had imagined before the opening of the market. But now, the facts are clear to see. Everyone can only bite the bullet and move on, including Jasper.”
Dean smiled and said, “You really have a sharp eye, Little Prince. You can see the core of the matter at just a glance.”
“Stop kissing my *ss, I have heard these things since I was a child. There is really nothing new here. In comparison, I am more interested in your so-called cooperation.”
The little prince stared at Dean on the screen. His gaze seemed to penetrate the screen to look directly into Dean’s heart. “To be brutally frank, we have to collaborate on something useful.
“If you ask me to take action against Jasper secretly, then forget it. At this critical time, whoever does so is going to die.”
“Even though Lord Alvarado is arrogant and obstinate, favonovel.com is only complaining and pulling cheap tricks. Even so, favonovel.com would not dare to oppose Jasper in the big picture.”
“I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us, especially in Swallow Capital. They must be paying close attention to this. Everyone is smart. I don’t think you and your grandfather would be so irrational as to do such foolish things, right?”
Dean replied immediately upon hearing that, “Please don’t worry, Little Prince. My grandfather and I are just seeking profit and nothing more. It is still very clear to us what should and what should not be done.
“In fact, what we want to cooperate with you on is also very simple. It’s basically this: when the time comes, I’ll need you to inform me of all Jasper’s plans.”
The little prince raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Now Jasper and Quantum Fund are fighting for control of the Dow Jones Index. Any decision will skyrocket or plummet one or even several stocks. Are you planning to get inside information in advance?”
