Chapter 174: Chapter 170: It Finally Arrived.

They’d rather avoid doing business with you altogether. In this situation, our ads are not being broadcast, what’s the point of the endorsement contract? Flying Horse is not a fool. Besides, foreign companies are even more pragmatic than domestic ones. Personal feelings hold no weight. So even though Flying Horse has not terminated the contract yet, they have started discussing it.
The trouble caused by the star herself is not Flying Horse Company’s obligation. So, they can terminate the contract without paying a penalty fee. Now, Kay Lee’s biggest problem isn’t whether she can get endorsements, but the 100 million bank loan she owes. No bank is foolish, a celebrity’s biggest asset is popularity, but once you’re discredited, can they not ask for the money back? The loan of 100 million is Kay Lee’s biggest concern.
Of course, if Kay Lee resorts to her father for help, things will probably be simple, but given Kay Lee’s character, she probably won’t want to do that.
“Why am I here? I was born to solve problems.” Finn Lewis murmured to himself, gesticulating with his hand.
“A task just came in. Will you take it?” Zero’s ghost-like voice emerged. Finn Lewis paused before asking in an eager tone, “What task? A short-term or a long-term one?” Finn has now established a rule – short-term tasks may offer less rewards, but they can be completed immediately. However, long-term tasks offer fabulous rewards, like the one Finn just took on.
Could that task be completed in a few years? Probably not even in decades. As for long-term tasks, you can just take a look at the possibilities.
“Task: Cultivate a noble temperament; Third side task: Establish your own business empire, take your first step now, go and acquire a company. Task reward: 100,000 points, unlock energy beverage formula. Task failure punishment: Trust me, you don’t want to know.” Zero directly reported Finn’s task.
Finn’s face lit up when he saw the task, he thought, damn it, I love this noble temperament cultivation. Even though Finn always felt like this led to the cultivation of a prodigal or nouveau riche temperament, but damn, this means he could spend others’ money freely, which feels amazing! The reward points also far exceeded Finn’s expectation – a whole 100,000! In the past, Finn might have laughed his teeth off.
But now Finn suddenly felt, the more reward points you got, the more you ended up spending! However, he derived a flavor from this task. First of all, when Zero offers a task, all expenses are paid by Zero. So, the question is what will happen if Finn buys company A after getting this task?
With a market capitalization of 650 billion federal coins, Finn didn’t know whether Zero could afford it. But if Zero really could, could Finn buy it? Clearly, it would be difficult! Because those consortia won’t give up the shares of company A. Speaking frankly, the North Federation government won’t allow Flame Nation people to fully own it either.
Don’t think North Federation emphasizes freedom and democracy. If it really does, why didn’t Sweat Horse sell to Flame Nation a few years ago? This has to do with the obstacles set by the North Federation government. If you insist on buying, then it’s a matter of splashing cash. For instance, you give a premium of 100%, meaning you offer 600 billion federal coins for something worth 300 billion. Will those consortia sell their stocks?
They will absolutely sell! But Finn recalls the mission completion degree concept mentioned when he completed the second branch task of cultivating a noble temperament. If you spend 600 billion to buy something worth 300 billion, would this affect the completion degree?
Finn didn’t think in such detail back then, but now his intellectual stats are much higher, which allows him to think on a more comprehensive and detailed level. While Zero’s mission prompt seems simple, there’re quite a few tricks inside. Additionally, you can’t just acquire any company.
Purchasing a company is a different concept from shopping. Just like buying a few more cars in the previous secondary task, the task completion degree substantially increased, because that’s a hard condition. In contrast, buying a company has many different considerations.
For instance, is it better to buy a company with a market value of 100 million but profits 100 million a year, or a company with a market value of 10 billion that might make a loss every year? The more he thought, the more Finn felt that Zero was setting him up! After considering for a long time, Finn threw all thoughts about big companies out of his mind.
Because the time it takes to complete the task definitely has an added bonus. If you finish an acquisition in a day versus a year, there is a big difference between the two. In fact, the first one Finn thought of was not Apple but Flying Horse! Damn it! Finn really wanted to forcefully acquire Flying Horse under the pretext of the task. But after thinking it over, regardless of how much time it would take, considering Flying Horse is tied to the national defense industry of Graham Kingdom, the Graham government probably won’t let Finn succeed, regardless of how much he offers.
After some consideration, Finn discarded the issue, deciding not to consider those impractical companies for now. Like Apple, Microsoft, Flying Horse and the like. It’s not that you can’t buy, but right now Finn absolutely can’t afford it even with money, as there’re too many complications.
In order to complete the task most efficiently and rapidly enhance his own strength, Finn decided to proceed with his initial plan. Plus, he had already planned to buy this company. He didn’t expect Zero to offer such a task, so now the biggest obstacle to acquiring this company – the funding issue, is resolved.
Moreover… Finn also thought of a few things in his mind, all of which could be achieved by acquiring this company! When things became clear, Finn wasn’t bothered about those big companies anymore. If he forcefully used the ability provided by Zero to acquire those big companies, the troubles that would arise definitely would be too much for him to handle.
After putting down his phone, Finn came out of his room and said to his relatives who were chatting outside, “Mom and Dad, please handle things here. In a few days, Fishy Wells will drive you to Celeston City. I have some business to attend to and may have to rush back to Celeston City tomorrow morning.”
The reason for asking Finn’s parents to go is because of Chloe Flowerfield.
Because she is currently registered with Benjamin and the others, in order to handle the adoption procedures and the household registration, they have to go to Celeston City. After finishing these matters, they will return to Hello
City..
