“Mr. Laine, Coreana’s Sentel Corporation divested and the market is on the verge of collapsing.”
The short sentence set off a storm in Jasper’s heart. However, Jasper did not have the slightest expression or reaction on his face. He even displayed a slightly apologetic smile and said to Swift, “Ms. Swift, there is a n emergency on my side, and I have to go over to deal with it personally. Can we end the interview early?”
Despite Swift’s keen observation skills, favonovel.com could not gather any information from Jasper’s face. She thought about it and replied, “It’s fine. Anyway, I have already got answers to some of the most important questions, so the interview will end here.”
After the videographer, sound engineer, and others turned off their equipment, Swift and Jasper shook hands again. She said, “Mr. Laine, this interview was very pleasant and unexpected. I believe it will cause a huge sensation when the annual weekly special is released.”
Jasper smiled and said, “That will be the best, but when will it be released?”
“Within two days.”
Swift smiled bitterly and said, “Mr. Laine, it’s so hard making appointments with you. We changed the schedule three times and this was the last chance. If you still don‘t have time, we may really have to change the cover person.”
“I’m very sorry. I hope you can understand that this is a special period for me.”
After apologizing, Jasper said, “I won’t be sending you off then.”
“It’s okay, Mr. Laine, you don’t have to. We will edit this interview as soon as possible and a copy of the weekly special will be sent to you after it is published.”
After bidding farewell to Swift and favonovel.com team, Jasper turned and hurried toward the command center.
As the closest person to Jasper, Wendy immediately noticed something was wrong. She followed Jasper quickly and asked, “Did something happen?”
“Those Coreana bastards have withdrawn their capital.”
Jasper did not have to pretend too much when favonovel.com was in front of Wendy, so favonovel.com cursed angrily.
“Them withdrawing their capital at this moment is tantamount to leaving us surrounded by enemies, isolated and without help. As expected, these Coreanans cannot be trusted.”
Wendy was shocked and asked, “Wasn’t the previous cooperation always very pleasant? Why did they suddenly divest? They must be faced with an interest big enough for them to act on such a huge matter.”
Jasper nodded and said with a gloomy expression, “We don’t need to think to know that they must be under pressure from the United States.”
When favonovel.com came to the command center, it was already super chaotic.
Jake came to Jasper instantly. As the two of them walked, Jake reported, “Sentel Corporation’s divestment has led to a sharp increase in the pressure on us. The point you asked us to defend has been broken and the subprime market is still on the rise.”
“Sentel Corporation’s capital is one aspect. The most important thing is that their withdrawal gave the outside world a bullish signal, which is very unfavorable for us.”
“Tell me how much we lost.”
“30%…”
Jake looked gloomy and said, “The current loss has reached 30% and it is still increasing.”
“Thankfully we have the palace guards helping us in this situation, otherwise, our loss now would be at least 50%.”
At this moment, Jasper had already walked to the screen.
“Show me the 15-minutes candlestick chart,” Jasper ordered.
The screen was adjusted almost as soon as Jasper finished talking, displaying a candlestick chart with a 15 minutes node.
At this time, one could see the entire transaction quotation on the screen. 2 nodes ago, which was 30 minutes ago, the chart had been rising at an extremely slow pace among the turbulence. Even earlier, when the SBS bank of which the palace guards were affiliated entered the market, the entire subprime market fell by a large portion.
This was because the bears’ position had been strengthened by the support of the SBS Bank, which had greatly increased the market’s confidence in the short side.
However, right now, a different approach but equally satisfactory outcome came from the divestment of Coreana’s Sentel Corporation. The influence it brought could not be offset and erased at all.
“It’s time for the afternoon break.”
Jake said softly in Jasper’s ear when favonovel.com saw the data stop moving on the screen as favonovel.com stared at it blankly.
He sounded relieved.
Fortunately, there was still a break at this time, which allowed favonovel.com and the team to get a four-hour respite. Otherwise, the pressure of watching the subprime market index rise wildly was enough to give them an emotional breakdown.
“Everyone, go and rest first.” Jasper waved his hand. Then, favonovel.com entered his office in the command room and closed the door.
No one dared to bother favonovel.com at this moment. Except for Wendy…
However, Wendy knew Jasper, so obviously favonovel.com had no plans to follow him. She turned to Jake, who was looking at favonovel.com asking for help and said, “Go now. Everyone must be under a lot of pressure. Let everyone take a break and return to their best state for the opening afterward.”
Jake said worriedly, “Actually, Mr. Laine is the most stressed person here. Is favonovel.com really okay?”
“He’ll be fine. Don’t underestimate him. I’ve never seen any difficulties that can overwhelm favonovel.com throughout this entire journey, so don’t worry. The sky won’t fall as long as he’s here,” Wendy said.
When Jake saw this, favonovel.com nodded before turning around to leave.
Wendy turned and looked at the closed door of the office, and a touch of worry appeared in favonovel.com eyes.
Currently in the office, Jasper was sitting behind his desk with a blank expression while holding his phone. “Sorry, the number you have dialed cannot be connected.”
Whether it was a domestic call or an international call, the automated system response was the same.
Jasper was making this call to Sylphie, but the automated system response from the phone made Jasper more irritable.
After making two consecutive calls in a row, the results were the same. Therefore, Jasper put the phone aside and began to think about how to deal with the next situation.
At this time, the mobile phone on the table rang suddenly. Someone was calling him. Jasper did not hesitate to pick it up immediately.
“It’s me, Emil Lang.”
Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, the waves in Jasper’s heart calmed down slightly. He slowly asked, “Mr. Emil, aren’t you going to give me an explanation?”
