“What’s up? Don’t you know yet? The stunts you’ve pulled in Central have completely blown up back home, netizens have given you a nickname ‘Prodigal Bro’. What do you think? How about setting up a ‘micro research’ account with T Company? After all, T Company is technically your own company now,” Mr. M laughed.
“Uh… Not quite yet,” Finn Lewis stuttered, somewhat speechless. He hadn’t expected that the news of his arrival at the hotel would have already made its way home and become so sensational. But it was not his fault, as news travels at warp speed these days.
“Isn’t it simple? What about I come to your hotel right now and sign off on our share swap agreement?” Mr. M joked.
“Are the relevant partnership agreements also signed?” Finn asked thoughtfully.
“Sure, are the contracts prepared on your side? If they are, I can come over now. After all, I’m not too far from you. However, can I purchase the tea from ‘Moon of West Lake’ restaurant? We can negotiate the price. I can’t stay in Celeston City forever,” Mr. M laughingly suggested.
“That’s not a problem,” Finn answered promptly. Although “Zero”‘s supply wasn’t huge, the three kinds of tea leaves he had exchanged would support him until the tea seeds from another universe started producing in Proudly Nation. Thanks to the energy adjusting solution, the growth speed of these tea plants will far exceed the normal breed.
And let’s not forget, time seems to run ten times slower in the other universe. What feels like a year to Finn equates to ten years in the other universe.
“Then I’ll come over now.” Mr. M was in Stratos City, only separated by a river from Fragrant River. A character like Mr. M would have no issues shuttling between cities, hence his arrival was faster than anticipated. Approximately two hours later, Finn saw Mr. M arrive.
“I must say, Mr. M, you’re quite speedy. But besides our private share swap agreement, can the other contracts also be signed?” Finn asked in surprise, looking at the team brought by Mr. M.
“Yes, they can be. The T Company board has already approved my resolution,”
Mr. M replied with a smile, having resigned himself to Finn’s informal address.
“Let’s sign then.” Finn naturally had no objections. The two quickly signed their names on all the correct contracts. This meant that, from then on, Finn would own 50% of the stocks in the gaming alliance development company Riot Games, and 2% of the stocks in T Company.
However, Finn had already arranged for Jay Sommer to start purchasing T Company’s stocks on the stock market. But Finn wasn’t in a hurry. He didn’t need to offer too much over the asking stock price, he could just slowly absorb the stocks. Since T Company, a company listed in Fragrant River, had more than 50% of its stocks in circulation, it was actually pretty easy for Finn to acquire these shares.
Simply through the instructions he gave before leaving, Jay Sommer had already acquired roughly 6% of T Company’s stocks. Adding the 2% stocks Finn iust acquired through the swap with Mr. M, Finn now owned 8% of T
Company’s stocks, equal to Mr. M’s stake.
Thus making him the second-largest shareholder, alongside Mr. M, outside the Mih Investment Group.
“How about now? Is it your own company yet? So how about it, start a ‘micro research’?” Mr. M asked with a cheerful grin.
“No problem. Let’s start one. The ‘micro research’ can be named ‘Prodigal Bro’.” Finn paused to think, then laughed as he spoke.
Writing was slow this time due to illness. Feeling groggy after a little writing. Today’s work took almost all day. Hope I feel better tomorrow. Please show support with some monthly tickets.
It doesn’t matter what name it goes by. As long as someone like Finn opens a ‘micro research’ account, it will definitely get certified. As long as everyone knows it’s Finn’s ‘micro research’ that’s all that matters. Therefore, Mr. M naturally had no problems. But what left Mr. M at a loss for words was, right after Finn agreed, he immediately dragged Mr. M into a shoulder-to-shoulder selfie.
After the photograph, Finn spoke: “There’s no problem with opening a ‘micro research’, but I have a condition.”
“What condition? Surely you’re not like those superstars who demand huge fees? This might help our ‘micro research’ development, but it’s also for the growth of your own company. After all, you are now a stakeholder of our company,” Mr. M looked at Finn suspiciously, preemptively sounding the alarm.
“Of course not. How much could an endorsement fee be? I’m saying, could you get me a five-digit ‘Flying Bird’ account, please? Back when I was in school, I used to drool over a six-digit and five-digit ‘Flying Bird’ account for ages,” Finn quickly replied, looking at Mr. M with hopeful eyes.
Looking at Finn’s solemn expression, Mr. M almost toppled off his chair. Come on, it’s such a trivial matter. Do you really have to be so serious about it? You had me worried for a while there, thinking you were going to propose some draconian condition. Moreover… in your mind, is a five-digit ‘Flying Bird’ account worth more than several million bucks?
Mr. M was thoroughly speechless. However, seeing Finn’s hopeful gaze, Mr. M wondered if it would be inappropriate to react this way towards Finn, who was soon to make the top ten rich list domestically. Mr. M could only grin and bear it and say; “Alright, as it stands, most of the five-digit ‘Flying Bird’ accounts are in our hands, save for a few. You can choose whichever account you want.” “Would 10000 be okay?” Finn chuckled.
Mr. M: “… What do you think?” Mr. M looked at Finn incredulously, cursing under his breath – the account 10000 belongs to the system, damn it!
“In that case, how about 10001?” Finn thought again.
“That one’s mine!” Mr. M rolled his eyes.
“Whatever, set the passwords etc yourself, I will get someone to set it up,” Mr. M quickly blurted.
“Hey, don’t you think you’re rushing this a bit? It’s just a ‘micro research’, T Company is huge, it wouldn’t matter if one ‘micro research’ didn’t work out,” Finn queried, puzzled by Mr. M’s urgency.
“Just start the ‘micro research’ first.” Though it seemed simple, whenever any of their ventures blossomed, the overall chain reaction brought great advantages which couldn’t be summed up by simple arithmetics. While there are numerous ‘micro research’ accounts, T company’s ‘micro research’ isn’t as sensational as others. This condition remained unchanged even when most of the netizens had a fixed ‘micro research’ account.
However, with the growing number of influential ‘micro research’ celebrities on T Company’s platform, this trend of loyalty might shift in favor of T Company. After all, T Company has the brand ‘Flying Bird’, and ‘message’, which is not only popular domestically but is gaining traction overseas too..
