“I believe that a lot of you are not unfamiliar with Mr. Morrison. However, in order to ensure that everyone here shares the same impression of him, I shall introduce him officially.”
“Mr. Morrison, who is standing next to me now, is the current president of one of the Big Four, Terra regional branch of Layman Investment Bank. His father, Mr. Rogers, is the president of the famous hedge fund, Quantum Fund.”
“Mr. Morrison and Mr. Rogers are very prestigious in the global financial industry.”
“That’s why it’s such good news to have Mr. Morrison here today in Empire Meet. I’m hereby announcing that Mr. Morrison will be taking the role of the vice president of Empire Meet.”
Fabian’s words caused a huge stir in the people in front of him.
Some people were ecstatic, mostly the ones in the financial industry.
The club had been able to recruit a big shot like Morrison, so it would make things easy for them to go on about their business in the future.
All things aside, a connection like this was very hard to come by. At the same time, a minority of people were not too happy.
“Mr. Dormer,” the casually dressed man approached Mr. Dormer quietly and said gloomily, “Didn’t Mr. Atticus say that he’ll only take people of Sommar descent as members?”
“And he also named the club as such.”
“What is he trying to do here?”
Mr. Dormer smiled softly and said, “That’s just an antic to get people to join when the club was first founded. You seriously believe that?”
“Also, I don’t think this is a bad thing.”
“Although Harbor City returned to the sovereignty of Mainland, you can’t underestimate the power of foreigners over here. We’ll benefit from harnessing their influence.”
The two of them talked as Fabian continued with his speech.
“I believe some of the more well informed individuals here already know that there was a terrorist attack in the United States yesterday. When that happened, I was discussing with Mr. Morrison about him joining Empire Meet.”
“Thanks to Mr. Morrison’s support, we now have a chance to make some money from this terrorist attack. I’m giving everyone this chance for free, and it’s up to you whether you utilize it.”
After Fabian said that, he gestured and invited Morrison to the front of the stage.
Morrison came forward. Then, he looked at the members of the club in front of him and said insipidly, “Hello everyone. From now on, I will be the vice president of Empire Meet. I just got here, so I didn’t bring any gifts for you guys. Therefore, this
opportunity will be my present to all of you.”
“I plan to start a temporary funding team who’s main purpose will be to gather funds for us. Then, we’ll use these funds to enter the market in the United States to make a huge profit.”
“On principle, everyone can join, and the entry amount should be no less than 5 million Harbor Dollars. There will be no upper limit.”
After hearing what Fabian and Morrison said, the discussions in the hall grew even louder.
Some of them were very excited and they could not wait to hand in their money immediately.
At the same time, some of them showed signs of doubt and hesitation on their faces. Even so, their eyes lit up.
The people at the scene were all descendants of powerful families. Even though some of them were not very bright, most of them were well educated and they knew how to think independently.
Therefore, they instinctively figured that something was off about this.
“Mr. Atticus, Mr. Morrison, is there any income security for this fund?” Mr. Dormer asked suddenly.
Morrison’s blue eyes looked over and he answered, “If you need profit that comes with income security, don’t you think it’ll be more suitable for you to buy from a wealth management fund? This will be our private fund, so I won’t guarantee any of you anything.”
