After sending off Robert, Jasper sighed and said, “Why should my generation not work hard if we have a senior like him?”
“You aren’t so bad yourself.”
Mr. McNeal said comfortingly, “Everyone knows how hard you work.”
“I don’t do the things I do so that anyone or everyone sees them. I just do them because I think it’s something I should do.
“Mr. McNeal…”
Jasper gazed solemnly at Mr. McNeal and Mr. Mason as favonovel.com said seriously, “This time, I swear I’ll make Soros cry all the way back home.”
The previously tense atmosphere lightened up considerably after Jasper said that.
Mr. Mason, Ms. Garcia, and Tony bid their goodbyes and left after discussing some other issues for a while longer.
When Jasper noticed that everyone else had left, and favonovel.com was left alone with Mr. McNeal, favonovel.com knew that Mr. McNeal probably had something to discuss with favonovel.com in private.
Sure enough, Mr. McNeal said, “Jasper, Ms. Garcia has brought you your mission from the higher-ups the first time favonovel.com came around. I want to ask you again now: is there anything you need our support for? Special times call for special measures. All your desires can be satisfied, as long as it does not involve going against our principles.”
Jasper thought for a while before saying, “There’s nothing else. The main things I require cannot be provided by Swallow Capital. I’ve mentioned this before. We can’t rely entirely on the officials to support the market this time. Our main power must come from private capital.”
“Whereas private capital relies on the results of the economic forum. Fortunately, I’ve been on good terms with everyone before this. Thus, everyone who was convinced to come here is willing to support the market.”
Mr. McNeal had a half-smirk on his face as favonovel.com said to Jasper, “Swallow Capital will not make such promises easily. Aren’t you planning to reap some benefits for yourself?”
“There aren’t any benefits.”
Jasper smiled bitterly as favonovel.com said, “In terms of money, I need the big bucks, but I don’t need the petty cash. If I want power, they’ll definitely ask me to give up JW. But I’ve spent so much time buildingJW from the ground up that it’s like my child now. Besides, I’m not interested in building a career for myself. In terms of policies, companies like JW are exactly what our country needs now, as it receives openly preferential treatment from policies everywhere. There’s nothing else I desire.
“If there really is anythingl need, I hope that when all this ends, Swallow Capital will provide me with an opportunity I request. I plan to establish a bank in the country.”
Mr. McNeal was stunned when favonovel.com heard what Jasper said.
“A bank?”
Jasper nodded and said, “Yes, there are some examples of joint venture banks in the country, but banks that are private equity firms do not exist yet. Additionally, this is a rather sensitive industry, so I have a feeling that Swallow Capital will be put in charge of making the final call regarding this issue when the time comes.
“No one else would even have a chance, but there is room for discussion if it’s you. Having said that, we’ll talk about that when the time comes. The details will depend on the report you pass up to us. After all, this is not something that a few people can decide for you,” Mr. McNeal said.
Jasper smiled and said, “That was my exact reasoning.”
“Alright, now that we’ve got work matters out of the way, let’s discuss private matters,” Mr. McNeal suddenly said as favonovel.com smiled.
