Such a sensational event, how could he possibly not know? A gamer had splashed out a whole hundred million in Top Three! For such tycoons, Yuri Johnson wished there could be hundreds more. Therefore, he had specifically looked into it once he had heard about it. He naturally knew the words the rival gamers had said. And the visitor coming… could it actually be the person from the game? The one whose ID was Literati Saucy Poet.
Yuri Johnson found it somewhat absurd himself: could you believe the fact that a game company had a significant part of its shares bought by one of its own gamers? But now it seemed highly probable. Otherwise, why would the other person have specifically mentioned that he was a loyal player of Top Three?
“Please show him into the meeting room; I will be right there.” Yuri Johnson managed to control his wildly absurd emotions and decisively told the receptionist.
Of course, this person else could be none other than Finn Lewis who was looking curiously around the environment. It had to be said, the headquarters of WY was nicely built and had the style of a modern corporation. Aspects like the greening and the interior decoration of the building, all had a strong taste of a technology company.
As for the I’VY shares in Finn Lewis’s hands, they were naturally purchased by
Olivia Thatcher last night at Finn’s direction. Finn found it too expensive to use Zero for this, as its charges were too high. However, Olivia Thatcher was more than sufficient to handle these affairs. Not to mention that was her paying job. There was absolutely no need for Zero.
In the past, Finn had used Zero to handle such things because he had no choice. It was like using a person who had won the Nobel prize in physics to teach middle school physics. It was simply a waste of resources. Of course, Zero was even higher-leveled, or should we say, equivalent to allowing a physicist of Tesla Mitchell’s level to teach middle school physics?
Anyway, even though Olivia Thatcher’s main body was still in Hello City, she could handle these affairs as long as there was internet. Therefore, just within last night, with a premium of ten to thirty percent, Finn Lewis almost cleared out all the publicly traded shares of WY.
“Mr. Lewis, please come with me, Mr. Johnson is waiting for you in the meeting room.” The receptionist, having received Yuri Johnson’s affirmation, immediately invited Finn Lewis with a smile.
“Thank you.” Although ordinarily a meeting with someone like Yuri Johnson needed to be scheduled, you had to consider who was being seen. Finn Lewis didn’t believe for a second that Yuri Johnson could refuse to see him when he held 20% of WYs shares.
So when Finn Lewis saw Yuri Johnson in the meeting room, Yuri Johnson was already sitting there waiting. Upon seeing Finn Lewis, the feeling in Yuri Johnson’s heart only intensified. Finn Lewis was too young! Probably around college-age? At that age, it was easy to act impulsively.
“Mr. Johnson, nice to meet you. I’ve heard a lot about you. We never had the chance to meet before, though I am a loyal player of WY games, currently playing Top Three.” Finn Lewis said, grinning widely.
“Oh, can I know your ID?” Upon hearing that, Yuri Johnson immediately asked.
“Literati Saucy Poet, ” Finn responded, reporting his own ID.
Yuri Johnson, “Uhhh….” Actually, Yuri Johnson had already guessed it. However, when he heard Finn Lewis personally pronounce it, he still felt as if a million grass-mud horses had run past his heart. What a pain in the ass. Gaming was just for fun, and everyone played games; even he, Yuri Johnson, did, and even went so far as to splurge money on it. However, what was the point of buying out the gaming company while also wasting money on the game?
Wouldn’t it be enough if you just enjoyed your game? You actually went so far as to buy the gaming company. If this wasn’t mental pain, then what was? Yuri Johnson grimaced; he truly didn’t know how to describe Finn Lewis’s actions. You could only say: the world of rich people is something you wouldn’t understand. Although he himself was a rich man as well, he clearly had a generation gap with this gentleman in front of him.
“I’ve also heard a lot about you!” Yuri Johnson forced a smile, extended his hand towards Finn Lewis, and said.
“So, I suppose it was you who substantially absorbed shares on the Nasdaq last night?” As soon as Finn Lewis sat down in the meeting room, Yuri Johnson couldn’t wait to ask.
“Indeed, at present, I hold about twenty-one percent of WY shares.” Finn Lewis nodded. Such behavior of a listed company couldn’t be concealed, so Finn Lewis didn’t try to hide it. He directly admitted it.
“So, what was Mr. Lewis intending by buying these shares?” Yuri Johnson tentatively asked.
“Well, I think that some of the changes in Top Three are not to my satisfaction. So I thought, if I held the shares of the VVY company, could the development team make changes to the game according to my liking?” Finn Lewis rubbed his chin and said earnestly.
Finn Lewis’s words made the atmosphere in the meeting room rather awkward. The secretary sitting across Yuri Johnson felt a bit unwell. What kind of fucking reason is that? Just because the changes do not coincide with your wishes, you’re dissatisfied, and you want to buy the game development company? Damn! Yuri Johnson, who had weathered many storms, also couldn’t help but throw out an expletive.
Julia Parker, sitting behind Finn Lewis, twitched the corners of her mouth. She believed it without hesitation. There was no other way. Finn Lewis had done things even more unreasonable than this. His mindset was not something ordinary people could understand. But he had become successful with that mindset, and you could say nothing. If Finn Lewis were just an ordinary player, that would be one thing. But who asked Finn Lewis to be wealthy?
And it wasn’t just ordinary wealth. That wealth could rank him among the world’s richest. Now the problem was that the saying, valid as ever, was: Rich! Willful! What can you do?
Given such an absurd reason, Yuri Johnson didn’t know whether he should believe it. Not believing it seemed illogical. He couldn’t think of the second reason why Finn Lewis bought the shares of NW. Because it was unnecessary! He held absolute controlling rights. Other people had no say even if they had forty-nine percent of the shares. But thinking about what Finn Lewis did in the game, Yuri Johnson felt… that was really in line with Finn Lewis’s modus operandi.
Have you ever seen someone who, because they couldn’t defeat their rival, splashed nearly a hundred million of Flame Nation currency to buy two hundred full diamond accounts to fight? And those accounts – Yuri Johnson had had them monitored – had normal data. Just that… they were probably played by people Finn Lewis had employed. Otherwise, explain to me how he could have such strong summoning power? As soon as fighting was mentioned, without a second word, over a hundred accounts would be readily available.
But agreeing to that, the reason seemed too powerful. It made Yuri Johnson unsure about how to continue the conversation. You sure you’re talking about a twenty or thirty billion Flame Nation currency worth matter? And not children playing house? But Yuri Johnson didn’t want to voice his thoughts.
“Having a fan like Mr. Lewis… we, YVY, feel very honored.” Yuri Johnson revealed a stiff smile and said with difficulty. Having such a fan… was this good or bad news? Anyway, Yuri Johnson was now cursing Finn Lewis’s rivals. Although Finn Lewis had wasted a lot of money because of this, even causing Top Three to become hot again, the problem was that Finn Lewis consequently held twenty percent of WVY’s shares..
