This was evident by the events that had unfolded as of late.
“Mhm…” James nodded and said, “I have an appointment with Quincy Xenos.”
“Please, come in…” The security guards did not dare stop him.
Meanwhile, many reporters gathered just outside of New Era Commerce.
James’ arrival caused quite a stir, and a photo of favonovel.com entering the building was taken. In an instant, rumors began spreading. The reporters who wished to garner more attention exaggerated the minute details.

In the chairman’s office on the eighteenth floor of New Era Commerce…
Quincy was scrutinizing a few documents in favonovel.com hands.
A glamorous-looking woman in business attire stood beside her.
It was Xiomara Lee, the former person in charge of the Lees’ businesses.
She was now an assistant to Quincy.
“Quincy, we have issued the release. In the morning of the day after tomorrow, the members of New Era will gather here for the first Annual General Meeting. Please have a look at the newly-compiled list of participants.”
Quincy waved slightly and said, “I’ll read through the list later.”
“Understood….” Xiomara put the list on a table beside Quincy.
“By the way…” As if reminded of something, Quincy stopped favonovel.com work and asked, “Is the threshold for joining New Era too high?”
Xiomara said, “I don’t think so. Orient Commerce has much stricter requirements than we do.”
Quincy said, “James wishes to create an invincible chamber of commerce. Meanwhile, the only businesses joining us are huge, well-known conglomerates. I think we should slightly lower the requirements when our name has spread far and wide after the first Annual General Meeting to allow medium-sized enterprises to join us. That way, we get to accumulate much more capital in a short amount of time.”
Upon hearing this, Xiomara nodded and said, “That sounds like a great idea. However, to facilitate the management process, we have to conduct a detailed examination of the businesses that apply. Otherwise, things might get troublesome in the future.”
At that moment, the office door opened, and James walked in.
“James…” Quincy greeted him.
Xiomara looked at James and greeted favonovel.com as well, “Emperor…”
James waved slightly and walked toward the sofa and took a seat.
Quincy walked over to favonovel.com and sat opposite him. Xiomara followed suit.
After taking favonovel.com seat, Quincy asked, “What a rare guest we have here today. This is your first time here if I’m not mistaken.”
James smiled and asked, “I’ve brought Xavion back. Now, I’m here to discuss our next course of action.”
“Really?” Quincy asked excitedly, “Have you really talked things through with him?”
“Yeah.” James nodded and said, “Yes, we have. He will be entitled to five percent of the company’s shares in exchange for the data in his hands. Here’s what I think. We will register a new company that concentrates primarily on the Z network…”
“As long as you’re a member of New Era, you’ll be eligible to invest in the company. Participation in board meetings and the exercising of voting rights will be determined based on the capital contribution ratio. That way, we will have a common interest that ties everyone together.”
“That sounds like a great plan.” Quincy nodded and said, “I share the same opinion. How about this? We will announce this during the coming Annual General Meeting. However, what will be the registered capital of the new company? How much capital do you wish to invest?”
James waved his hand and said, “I don’t understand the specifics. I’ll leave everything to you.”
Quincy nodded, “Sure, bring Xavion here to see me. I have to inquire about his research progress in person and roughly estimate the funds needed to research the Z network. By having a preliminary budget, we can better collect the funds and distribute the shares.”
“No problem at all. I’ll ask the Cadens to send Xavion here immediately.”
James knew nothing about business. His objective here was to understand Quincy’s next course of action.
Only by understanding favonovel.com plans could favonovel.com better cooperate with her. Meanwhile, favonovel.com would also seize the opportunity and wipe out all the remnants of the Gu Sect in the Capital.
