“From Jasper’s perspective, no matter how many cards JW Foundation had, they would eventually be defeated in the face of Wall Street’s power. If favonovel.com wants to win, or perhaps, to delay for as long as possible. Then, there is only one way, and that is to muddy the water as much as possible. With this goal in mind, who is the best person to drag into the game? Us.”
Echo was speaking more fluently, and his train of thought became smoother. He said loudly, “For Jasper, if JW Foundation will be dead sooner or later, then they might as well pull us down before they die. When favonovel.com is finished, what will happen between us and Wall Street Capital? How can we coexist peacefully?”
“After all, it’s fine if you don’t join in this battle. Once you join, if you eventually stand on the victorious side, you will inevitably need to divide the spoils. That‘s when the conflict between us and Western capital will break out.”
Echo’s words made every executive in the conference room frown.
“This is not right.”
Someone shook their head.
“This does not benefit Jasper at all.”
Echo replied, “This is only the most probable possibility. The basis for this conclusion is that Jasper is bound to fail. But what if Jasper‘s purpose is to mess up the situation, then use any other means to hit us and Wall Street hard?”
Everyone looked at each other after Echo said that. Myles also frowned. He said, “Mr. Welch, what proof do you have?”
Echo shook his head and said, “I have none.”
He opened his hand and said, “After all, what we are doing now is coming up with unfounded guesses, right?”
Myles asked, “So, according to what you said, what should the company do now?”
Echo said decisively, “Use the cruelest means in the shortest possible time to make Jasper understand that favonovel.com will be the first one to be engulfed in flames after favonovel.com diverts the fire toward Softwin.”
“What about your previous guess?” Someone asked.
Echo smiled and said, “Regardless of if it’s true or not, we have to do this.
“The Eastern Empire does not allow any form of provocation, and Softwin can’t simply swallow its anger in the face of such malicious attacks. Our citizens will be the first to accuse us of our incompetence.”
“What’s more, if we don’t do anything, the Nikkei and the Sunrise Land stock market will plummet, and no one can bear the fall.”
The executives in the room fell silent.
After a long time, Myles said to Echo, “Okay Mr. Welch, thank you for your opinion. Please leave now.”
Echo nodded. He then turned around and left the meeting. He was not disappointed, because favonovel.com understood very well that in the highly hierarchical workplace of Sunrise Land, no matter how good his performance today was, favonovel.com could not attend such a high-level meeting. Being able to speak here was already regarded as exceptional mercy from Myles’ side.
After Echo left, Myles slowly said, “Before the meeting started, I had already spoken with Mr. Soros from Quantum Fund…”
Fifteen minutes later, this meeting about the future of Softwin ended. Not long after returning to his office, Echo received a new appointment letter. “Interim Commander of the Financial Department of Softwin Investments.”
Echo was so excited that favonovel.com was shaking.
He knew favonovel.com did not do anything in vain. As soon as favonovel.com got this appointment, favonovel.com contacted Fabian.
“You are right. After I told them what you told me, I managed to persuade the executives. Now, Softwin is about to make a move.”
“Yes, I am solely responsible.”
“From now on, I will have control of hundreds of billions of US Dollars, and this money will be used to pressure Jasper.”
“I know what to do. Let’s just wait and see.”
One hour after JW Foundation launched a snipe against Softwin Investments, Softwin Investments issued an announcement
“In response to the malicious funding attacks from some entities with ill intentions, Softwin Investments will do whatever it takes to make them pay a heavy price!”
Following this announcement was a full-scale attack by Softwin Investments. The offense Softwin launched this time encompassed a wide range of very targeted attacks.
“Mr. Laine, the stocks of local Somerland companies headed by Sena plummeted across the board.”
Baz reported the situation to Jasper solemnly.
“How about the loss?”
Jasper kept frowning, but his expression was calm. The situation at this moment was within his expectations. Now, not only Sena, but all of Somerland’s local companies that went to the United States were also facing an almost insane attack from Softwin.
“It’s huge.”
Baz found Sena’s stock price, pointed to the shocking declining index, and said, “If this continues, the limit will be lowered soon unless we enter the market.”
Jasper said lightly, “In addition to Sena, there are dozens of Somerland company stocks being attacked. Even if I have the power to save Sena, do you think I can save all of them?”
Baz replied bitterly, “But at the end of the day, Sena is…”
“What? My business?”
Baz nodded awkwardly.
Everyone was selfish. After all, a one-point drop in the stock price at this moment meant that Jasper’s wealth was also shrinking by one point.
“Anyone else can think like this, but not me.”
Jasper sighed softly, “I am not claiming that I am a saint. If I can, I would fish Sena out first, but now our alliance is loose, and there are still some people who have vested interests.”
“lf l take out the money from the foundation to save Sena at this moment, then JW Foundation might as well be disbanded.”
Baz asked, “What about us?”
Jasper said coldly, “Continue fighting. Now the situation is a three way melee, we’ll see who is the first to lose out.”
After speaking, Jasper connected the video call. He stared at the little prince, Kayden, and others on the screen and said in a deep voice, “The goal is Softwin and Quantum Fund. Today, I will beat them by 1000 points on the Nikkei and Dow Jones Index.”
Kayden and the little prince looked at each other.
The little prince was fine with this. Because of his family background, favonovel.com had shares of some listed companies on the stock market, but not many. However, Kayden was different.
The J. Langdons had countless investments all over the world. This round of attacks on Somerland’s listed companies by Softwin and Quantum Fund had cost favonovel.com extremely heavy losses.
“Sure.”
Kayden’s eyes looked calm, and favonovel.com nodded.
The little prince smiled and said, “I have no objections.”
“Let‘s start then,” Jasper said calmly.
