“F*ck! It has to be Morrison! He’s the one behind all this!”
Page immediately roared after Brin spoke.
Jasper looked at Page and asked, “Who’s this Morrison you speak of?”
Page clenched his jaw and replied, “Morrison is the senior investment manager of Layman Investments. We’ve contacted him before for funds but his conditions were too harsh so we didn’t agree…
“In truth, we were only in New York yesterday to negotiate with Morrison.
“But his condition was to have 80% of Google’s shares and its managerial rights for 60 million US dollars. We might as well sell ourselves to him if that’s the case, so we didn’t agree.”
Brin sighed and spoke, “Not only is Morrison the senior investment manager of Layman Investments, but his father is Rogers, the president of Quantum Funds.
“As far as he’s concerned, Google either has to accept Layman Investments’ humiliating conditions or it’ll be completely destroyed. I’m not surprised he would do such a thing.”
Jasper, who had not reacted much at all, arched his brow slightly at that.
Quantum Funds. Rogers.
After the Harbor City billion-dollar stocks rescue plan, the Law family and the other rich families had also found out who the culprit was.
Quantum Funds had been the culprit behind it all. While the head of Quantum Funds was Soros, the culprit behind Harbor City’s stock crisis was Quantum Funds’ second in charge, Rogers.
The first time Jasper had lost since he started his business was to Rogers.
This loss had Jasper deeply realize that he could not look down on others just because he had the memory of the world before he reincarnated.
The last thing the world lacked was capable people and Rogers was one of the most outstanding of the batch.
He was a man who could make art out of capitalism.
Jasper had never expected that by mistake, he was meeting Rogers’ son, Morrison, before he got a rematch with Rogers himself.
Jasper did not know if Morrison was aware of his past with Rogers, but Jasper knew that Google was a chance he would not miss out on nor would he allow Morrison to screw this over for him.
“How much is Layman Investment Bank willing to pay to stop us?” Jasper asked directly.
Page replied embarrassedly, “According to our classmate, Layman Investments is willing to pay double of what we’re offering to buy their shares.”
Jasper chuckled at that and spoke, “That’s a large amount. Is that actually Layman Investment Bank’s decision, or did Morrison decide that on his own?”
Neither Page nor Brin dared to answer Jasper’s question.
The question was too sensitive.
“Alright, don’t worry about this for now. I’ll deal with it. Go back and rest in the hotel first.”
Page and Brin nodded at Jasper’s words in agreement.
The acquisition of Google was now a personal fight between Jasper and Morrison, or even Jasper and Layman Investment Bank.
Page and Brin could easily partner with the person who was willing to pay the most, but they could not help but feel that Morrison had only made this move to prevent Jasper from acquiring Google.
