Chapter 106 - Step 2 (III) (1/2)
A melodious music was accompanying every guest in the first-class restaurant.
A waiter was holding a plate with three different bottles of wine and went to serve the three middle-aged men in one of the tables.
Yi An, a man with a big stomach, who was slicing a beef steak talked.
”I'm telling you, its a solid information. ArtWorld will be gone for sure. The Xiong Empire is concealing this news to us.”
The short man with eyeglasses on Yi An's left, Er Bing, who helped the waiter which wine to pour on whose glass, spoke.
”Then when are we planning to back out? We should not back out too soon or too late. If we back out as early as now, the Xiong Empire might take it against us and maybe pinned to us that we're the reason why ArtWorld will not be built. And if it's too late, we will be in disadvantages.” Yi An said what he sincerely thought.
San Chin, a big man with shoulder-length hair, reached out for his glass and take a sip. He then nodded and commented.
”I agree. I think its better if we pull out in the middle of the month. We should have our own backup project to put our money on. So we can excuse ourselves that we will be backing out because the later project needs our resources and cooperation more.” He suggested.
The three of them knew that it was a lame excuse. However, with this excuse, the Xiong Empire could not blame them even if the empire knew they were just using the later project as leeway.
These three men, Yi An, Er Bing, and San Chin are investors who invest 20% in ArtWorld. They are the second to the highest investors of ArtWorld. They are very important for the ArtWorld. However, because of this, they could not jump out of the sinking boat easily. Because they are afraid of becoming an enemy of the Xiong Empire.
They are all very wealthy. And with these three collaboration, they become one of the top 10 in investment companies in China.
However, they can't still make an enemy out of humongous corporations like the Xiong Empire. So now, they are racking their brains to renounce the ArtWorld project.
”Have you scout any project recently?” Yi An asked the two.
San Chin nodded.
”Have you heard of SC company?”
The two thought for a while then shake their heads.
”Is it a new company? I've never head of SC before. ” Er Bing commented.
”We don't take projects from a newbie. You know that, San Chin.” Yi An said.
”I know. I know. But hear me out. This company is just built last year. It's like the beans that thrown out by Donald and grew up as a large three overnight. Its stocks are rising constantly!” San Chin told them while gesturing with his hands. He was clearly amazed by SC.
”So? A lot of companies grown overnight then died the next day. We're not sure about this SC.” Yin An said. He witnessed a lot of companies who grew too fast but died too soon as well. It might be because of different reasons. But he knew they will not be able to cooperate in the long term for that kind of company.
”I know. I know that. I've looked into them. Because they showed a great surprise to me, I investigate them more. Their revenues every month is increasing. Every project that they take, the return is doubled, tripled, sometimes it is even quadrupled. Not only that, even they are only a year old, they have also taken roots in the agriculture and manufacturing industry. I think they would start to take roots in the entertainment industry as well.”
The two were now shocked.
”Wha-? Are they planning to become an empire? ” Er Bing said open-mouthed.
”I think the man behind SC has a lot of great connections.” Yin An said thoughtfully.
”Furthermore, the partnership they have in those companies is a long term one.” Sang Chin added a bomb.
The two were really taken aback.
A long term partnership is rare. It only occurs if both of the parties have trusted each other. It means they are both confident that their partners would not be bankrupt for that long period of time.
This long term partnership usually occurs in big corporations and legendary investors.
Now, if this SC who was only a green company managed to get that long term partnership out of their partners, it means that this SC was a terrifying company.
If they can manage to achieve this feat at one year old, then how about in the future, when SC is ten, or 20 years old in the industry? Just thinking of these made the three gulped and excitement was boiling in their blood.
Yi An could not help but slapped the table with agitation.
”Why telling it now?! Contact them immediately!”
”Ha. Ha. Ha. No need! I'm not yet done telling my story. Sc actually contacted me.” San Chin said with a proud smile. He was so happy he managed to get the two so agitated.
”That's great! What did they say?” Er Bing asked.
San Chin smiled smugly.
”They wanted us to invest in their new project.”
The two exchanged glances. This time its no doubt that they will take this on.
