Moreover, Mr. M had made it clear that he could only influence 32% of the shares. Discounting the floating shares in the stock market, the 33.63% of shares held by MIH is incredibly important! In other words, only when MIH agrees, can T Corporation potentially sell its 6% stake to Finn Lewis.
As a matter of fact, these 67% of T Corporation’s shares practically accounted for all the major shareholders, and the rest were free-floating shares in the hands of regular investors.
“No problem, Mr. Lewis, leave this matter to me. In this case, I am highly confident I can persuade those old stick-in-the-muds on the board of directors to go all out in helping you acquire Activision Blizzard. Mr. Lewis, wait for my good news.” Oscar Blair immediately responded enthusiastically.
Finn Lewis shrugged—it was quite like this guy to completely discard his sense of integrity, even forgetting who he represents right now. However, none of that mattered; the important thing was that he had indeed chosen Oscar Blair wisely— the influence of the top ten consortiums of the North Federation was self-evident.
After hanging up the call from Oscar Blair, Finn Lewis started to ponder. With Oscar Blair on hand, shouldn’t he go meet Kelly Damian Bryan? Perhaps he could persuade him? He couldn’t just force things without even trying, could
If he could settle things with Kelly Damian Bryan, it won’t be necessary to deal with MIH. That consortium may not necessarily be harder to handle than Kelly Damian Bryan.
The next morning, Finn Lewis was awakened early by a call from Oscar Blair. It was barely 8 in the morning, which left Finn Lewis somewhat speechless. These capital powers were overly eager, it seemed!
“Mr. Lewis, the relevant contracts are all set, we just need your signature.” As soon as Finn Lewis answered the phone, Oscar Blair’s slightly exhausted voice rang.
“That quick?” Finn Lewis was somewhat surprised. “Of course, efficiency is life. Besides, Mr. Lewis, you have offered a profit of over 100 million federal coins for merely buying 7% of the shares.” Oscar Blair’s mood seemed to lift as he spoke.
The premium was reduced to around 27%, and Finn Lewis gave a 40% premium. This equates to them having a 13% profit, which is equivalent to 120 million federal coins! In reality, especially for banks and these consortiums, their profit point can’t be hundreds of percent of profit in one instance like in novels or TV shows.
For these consortiums, a return of over 20% is already quite impressive! You should know that the funds they control are enormous! Therefore, they need to diversify their investments. This also requires a balance of cost-effectiveness. The fact that they could make a profit of 120 million federal coins overnight was a very high return!
“Not bad, not bad.” Finn Lewis nodded in satisfaction.
“Someone will head to California today, along with the relevant lawyers with the signed documents. All you need to do, Mr. Lewis, is sign the related documents.” Oscar Blair quickly spoke.
“Nice work. I’m going to meet Bryan today to see if I could win him over.” Finn Lewis nodded in satisfaction.
“Um … I think you would do better to negotiate with Mr. Kodiak Kennedy, my conversation with Damian Bryan would be difficult.” Oscar Blair hesitated a bit before speaking in a low voice.
Finn Lewis was taken aback when even Oscar Blair said this. But how would he know without trying? After a pause, then Finn Lewis finally said: “I have already negotiated with Mr. Kodiak Kennedy, he can sell the shares he owns to me, provided that I already own 30% of the shares, so …” Finn Lewis didn’t elaborate any further.
However, Oscar Blair instantly understood what Finn Lewis meant. The shares in Damian Bryan’s hands amounted to 24%, and with the 7% shares Oscar Blair had secured for Finn Lewis, the total would be 31%, which would exceed 30%, reaching the quantity Finn Lewis needed to buy the shares from Mr.
Kodiak Kennedy.
“Alright, Mr. Lewis, but as for Damian Bryan … prepare yourself.” After hesitating for a bit, Oscar Blair eventually blurted it out.
“Alright, as for the signing of the related documents, I should be back around the afternoon.” Finn Lewis set a rough schedule, then ended the call.
Once they left the hotel, Jim Lewis had already prepared a car for Finn. Naturally, Luca Hall followed Finn, but when he found out that Finn was going to visit Damian Bryan, Luca Hall hesitated a bit and said: “Boss, I think … we better not go. What if that guy angers you?”
“Hmm?” Finn Lewis raised his eyebrow.
“He … he has some racist tendencies.” Luca Hall offered a wry smile, reluctantly saying, Finn Lewis raised his eyebrows, his facial expression instantly turning a bit sour. Though ‘racism’ is a sensitive term in the North Federation, there are quite a few North Federation people with such tendencies, as long as you don’t bring it up in public. There are many North Federation white people like this.
“Reason?” Finn Lewis asked, raising an eyebrow.
“His dearly beloved wife was gang-raped and murdered in Chinatown by several Asian underground forces just after giving birth to their child. Then when his second child turned 10 … there was another incident, the culprit was again a person with yellow skin, who has not been found till today. Coupled with his inherent racist tendencies, his hatred for Asians is even more intense than that for Black people.” Luca Hall offered a wry smile.
Upon hearing this, Finn Lewis paused for a moment. Faced with such a situation, Finn Lewis didn’t know what to say. However, since he had come, Finn Lewis couldn’t just turn around and leave without meeting Damian Bryan, right? Finally, Finn Lewis decided to go and meet him, after all, they would have to deal with each other in the future.
Luca Hall felt somewhat troubled. Although Luca Hall had only met his boss twice, Luca Hall had been paying attention to his boss’s news, so he knew what kind of person his boss was.
As Luca Hall saw it, if his boss went there, he would surely get angry. The car quickly pulled up to a mansion in California. This mansion was quite large, but as soon as Finn’s car reached the gate, it was stopped.
When the doorkeeper saw Finn Lewis step out of the car, he bluntly stated: “I’m sorry, sir, we do not welcome people from Asna continent here.”
“Are you being racially discriminatory?” Finn Lewis directly quipped..
