As soon as Celine finished speaking, she noticed that Jasper was looking at her like she was an alien.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Celine asked.
“I realized that for you to be able to replace William and take the position of the president of the Terra
regional branch of Colossal Investments, that you must be quite capable as well,” Jasper said
sincerely.
“Why’s that? Don’t you think that I got this position just because I rode on your coattails?” Celine asked
proudly.
“I never said that,” Jasper chuckled. “You got the position because of your own abilities,” he added.
Celine glanced at Jasper and continued speaking in a serious tone.
“We can basically confirm our opponent’s goal now. He doesn’t want money. He has acquired a book
loss of approximately 200 million US dollars in order to stifle the share price during this period. This is
just a rough estimate that we can use to make an educated guess.”
“Can you find out who is it?”
Jasper shook his head after hearing Celine say this. “As I’ve told you previously, I have too many
opponents. All of them are imbued with a motive and the ability to pursue their goals. With the limited
number of clues that we have right now, I still can’t tell who’s behind all of this,” he said.
“In that case, there’s no way to find out.”
Celine spread her arms and said, “I can only help you by analyzing the other party’s intention and
possible goal on a technical level. I can’t help you resolve this problem or tell you how to fish them out.”
“You’ve already helped me a great deal,” Jasper told her in a sincere tone.
Jasper knew how to interpret the market board. His skills were impressive as well.
However, his skills only applied to general situations. They were not enough for him to see through the
meticulous plots set up by masters in the share market like the one that he was facing right now.
He did not emerge victorious in the stock markets of Harbor City and Nasdaq because of his skills.
Rather, he had managed to do so because he possessed a strategic vision and planning that went
beyond the current era and extended almost two decades into the future.
He knew about the classic financial battles that would happen in the future. He also knew a lot of cases
whereby immaculate manipulation of the market led to fascinating results.
Therefore, this knowledge served to greatly improved Jasper’s strategic planning.
Meanwhile, he simply relied on the technical skills that he had gained from his experience of working at
a financial company for more than ten years in his previous life to get by.
When it came to his technical skills, Jasper could not even begin to compare to Jake Cullen.
At that moment, Jasper had finally witnessed the extraordinary trading skills of the top trader of the era.
Ordinary people may see streaks of broken lines when they looked at a market index, but Celine
Maynard could instantly detect the true meaning concealed by the data whenever she looked at it.
Jasper was beyond jealous of her talent and abilities.
“Now that we know that the other party is trying to hammer the market, we aren’t left with many
options.”
Jasper said in an exceptionally calm and even tone.
“If an ordinary person were in such a situation, they would definitely be overcome with anxiety
regardless of how self-confident they were. But, look at you. You don’t look nervous at all,” Celine
remarked in amusement.
“It’s important not to panic before the battle begins. Furthermore, it’s useless to do so. I think that I’m
rather lucky, as , at the very least, we have uncovered our opponent’s plans. It’d have been too late if
we discovered his plans after he made his move,” Jasper said.
“By the way, was the person that reminded you about this issue one of your subordinates? If he is, you
should really reward him. One of the professional teams from the investment bank discovered this
problem on our side. That person managed to find out about it at the same time as our team did. His
skills are pretty extraordinary.”
After hearing this, the image of Jake’s face flashed across Jasper’s mind. He chuckled and said, “He
deserves a reward, but we’ll talk about it after we overcome this challenge.”
Since they had already uncovered the other party’s plans, the next steps that Jasper planned to take
were extremely simple.
He began to raise money from Sena’s company funds as well as whatever money he could pull from
his private account.
The share market could be complicated, but it was also extremely simple at times.
At the end of the day, everyone was just fighting for money.
Jasper planned to catch their opponent off guard by making sure that he did not have the chance to
mobilize his funds. That way, he could achieve a highly satisfactory result with a minimum cost.
However, once they got into a tug of war, it would be a battle waged with money.
If their opponent offered to buy shares from the sellers for five dollars per share, Jasper would offer
them a price of six dollars per share. If their opponent offered the sellers six dollars per share, Jasper
would offer them seven dollars.
If their opponent sold his shares for five dollars per share, Jasper would sell them for four dollars per
share. If their opponent offered to sell his shares for three dollars per share, Jasper would sell them for
two dollars.
In the end, the one who finishes spending all of their money first would lose the battle.
“As the actual head and majority shareholder of Sena, you can always release some shares into the
market. No matter how many shares our opponent buys, he would still only be buying the shares that
you’ve released. There’s no need for you to personally engage him in battle.”
Celine told Jasper when she saw him mobilizing his funds.
Jasper shook his head and said, “I cannot lose control of the company. Who knows? This might very
well be our opponent’s goal. Won’t I be in great trouble if some people came together and asked me for
additional shares after forcing me to give up my rights as the company chairman? If that were to
happen, I’d lose control of Sena.”
“In other words, you have a strong desire to have control over everything. If someone wants to
overthrow you and gain control of Sena, it’d cost them a sum of more than 4 billion US dollars given
Sena’s current share price and market capital. That is pretty much impossible,” Celine said.
“I managed to get all the way here because I’m good at making the impossible possible, and dashing
my enemies’ hopes of defeating me,” Jasper said calmly.
Celine was stunned. She could not help but smile when she thought of his shocking life experience.
“You’re right, I forgot how you made it big. In that case, I won’t comment any further on your choices,”
she said.
“I need your help in terms when it comes to technical skills. I’m not as good as you are,” Jasper said.
“You need to pay me for this,” Celine said in a satisfied tone.
“Sure, I’ll pay you an hourly wage of 100000 dollars per hour.”
“Talking about money will hurt my feelings. I don’t need your money. Why don’t we talk about our
feelings instead?”
“It’s a waste of money to talk about our feelings. I’d rather hurt your feelings.”
“You scumbag!”
…
Conrad Monty opened the door of a villa located in Nauritus City. Valentine Estrada was in the midst of
a heated discussion in a video conference with their team in the United States.
“Mr. Monty.”
Valentine got up and greeted Conrad when he entered the room.
Valentine’s eyes were bloodshot, and she looked extremely tired. “You’ve worked hard during this
period. I’ll let you go on a long holiday once things are over. You’ll be given a nice bonus as well, so
you’ll have time to relax by then,” Conrad said in a gentle voice.
Valentine grinned and said, “I don’t find it difficult. I’ve found something truly meaningful to do with my
life; I’ve been wasting my life away before this.”
Indeed, this was meaningful. They were attempting to pry apart a listed company with a market value of
billions of dollars, with a capital flow of 10 billion US dollars. How could it not be meaningful?
“How’s everything going?” Conrad asked.
