When a listed company’s stock price fluctuated sharply or faced abnormal market conditions, the head
of the listed company generally had to show up to explain the situation. This could be either due to its
responsibility toward its investors or the regulatory requirements of the local securities commission.
For example, they would say that the fluctuations this time had nothing to do with them and were
instead due to those cruel dealers. Additionally, they could claim that the volatility this time around was
because they had recently made or lost a lot of money, causing the stock price to fluctuate sharply.
It would basically be those two reasons.
Due to ExxonMobil’s current situation, it was normal to make such announcements.
However, it was precisely because of the current situation that every word in its announcement had to
be carefully thought out before they were spoken. Otherwise, it would cause major problems.
Jasper opened the official website of ExxonMobil for the first time.
Dear investors, ExxonMobil Group is concerned about the recent abnormal fluctuations in the group’s
stock price, and we would like to notify all investors.
At present, all operating activities of the group are continuing normally and we are forecasted to make
a quarterly profit as per usual. There are no major events that may potentially affect the normal
operations of the group in the near future, and there are no major senior positions adjustments, asset
splits, mergers, or sales. In response to abnormal stock price fluctuations, we remind investors to be
cautious. The group will strictly abide by the rules of the Securities Regulatory Commission and
maintain firm opposition toward any capital measures that may affect the normal interests and
operational activities of the group.
If there are other outstanding issues in the follow up, we will continue to make more announcements.
Investors are kindly requested to pay attention to these.
Regardless of how one Viewed this announcement, there was nothing glaringly wrong with it.
However, Jasper keenly noticed a trace of unusualness.
“Are there any channels to investigate the recent movements of the executives of ExxonMobil Group?
For example, if they’ve been in contact with Wall Street?”
Faced with Jasper’s question, Jake shook his head bitterly and said, “Mr. Laine, we have almost no
contacts in the United States, not to mention that this is so high-level and confidential. I don’t think
anyone outside the circle of the core figures can get their hands on such information.”
Jasper sighed and said, “This is indeed a bit difficult.”
Jasper himself could not even inquire about such news, let alone Jake and the others.
“Mr. Laine, the market has closed, ” Jake reminded Jasper softly.
Jasper finally realized that the trading day had passed.
“Let’s go down, sort out the data and intelligence, and analyze as many outcomes as possible. I can’t
shake the feeling that something’s wrong.”
Jasper frowned slightly and said.
“I understand.”
Jake also knew how stressed Jasper was and did not want to waste his time. Thus, he immediately
ended the video and went to work.
After ending the video call, Jasper took a breath and rubbed his numb cheeks. Only then did he notice
that the air around him felt extremely heavy and that there was smoke everywhere.
Just then, Greg came over.
As soon as he opened the door, he was almost suffocated by a puff of smoke, causing him to walk in
while waving his hand. Greg looked at the full ashtray and the several cigarette boxes scattered around
the room, then said in surprise, “How much did you smoke?”
Jasper felt a little nauseous due to the fact that the air he breathed in smelled of tobacco. He replied, “I
smoke a little too much. Ask room service to clean this up. Let’s go out for dinner first.”
On the way to the restaurant downstairs, Greg hesitated several times. Finally, he said, “Jasper, are
you under a lot of pressure?”
Since the reunion, Greg had been very self conscious. He had always referred to Jasper as Mr. Laine
and seldom by his first name. The fact that he was calling him Jasper right now meant that Greg was
chatting with Jasper as friends since they were young.
“I do have something on my mind.”
Jasper smiled, and asked, “Who‘s totally free of worry?”
“It’s okay. Look, I have lived so terribly for so long, yet I’m here right now. I am getting better and better
by the day. You are so powerful, so you will be fine.”
After Greg finished speaking, he felt that these words were a little pale and empty.
“Anyway, I will definitely support you.”
Looking at Greg who was serious and sincere, Jasper smiled and said, “Thank you.”
“Let’s stop talking about me. How are things going on your side?”
Greg immediately got excited when he heard the words. He said, “It’s going very well. I’ve done all of
the interviews today and they’ll report it tomorrow.”
Jasper’s eyebrows finally relaxed when he heard the good news. He said, “You should follow up this
matter properly. Don’t be sloppy about it.”
“Whether or not Nokia can be annexed determines whether the pre-transformation of Blau Mobiles and
even the entire JW system will be successful. The significance of this is something that everyone,
including yourself, have not thought of until now, so you have to do your best to get it done.”
Greg nodded solemnly and answered, “I understand.”
***
At the same time, in Harbor City.
Kayden walked out of the trading floor with no expression on his face.
Behind him, a group of people was getting restless. They were waiting for him to leave so that they
could communicate and interact with Henry.
In the eyes of most people, Kayden had completely executed the order from Nauritus City today, which
meant that Kayden must have been scolded by Jasper and dared not take the risk of going against
Jasper again.
With this, many people were swayed.
They were all currying favors with someone, so why not go for the strongest party?
Moreover, Henry’s appearance meant that Jasper would drive Kayden out of the Harbor City trading
center sooner or later.
In the minds of wealthy businessmen in Harbor City, Jasper was incomparable to Kayden in terms of
status, but Henry’s surname was Law, and the Laws were behind him. His appearance meant that the
Laws were still supporting Jasper unconditionally as before.
Even a fool knew how to choose between Jasper Laine, the upstart from the mainland, who was
coupled with the Laws, the veteran giant from Harbor City, and Kayden and his father, Half the Harbor
Langdon.
“Mr. Langdon, I think many people seem to want to worm their way into a relationship with Henry.
Would you like to ask a few people to warn them?”
The assistant sped no so that he was about half a pace behind Kayden and asked close to his ear.
Kayden replied calmly, “Why? Didn‘t you see that I came out so early on purpose to make room for
Henry?”
“Jasper wants Henry to come over to disperse my authority, so let him disperse it. They’re all
disappointments. Since when were their attitudes important?”
Kayden sneered. His eyes flashed with a sinister light and he continued, “My father warned me before,
but I still didn’t believe him.”
“It seems that Jasper is indeed just like me. He is a good businessman who would sell his soul for
gains. Since he asked Henry to come here and antagonize me first, then I will not feel guilty if I do
everything for my own interests from here on out.”
