Getting $10 Trillion Out Of Nowhere-Chapter 908 - : The Best Outcome
Chapter 908: The Best Outcome
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Mr. McDonald, the situation is like this. After the board meeting, the Empire World Corporation put all their energy into the Metro Line 9 project. Originally, we only had a 10% chance of winning the Metro Line 9 project, but after putting our effort into the operations, the probability of us winning this project rose to 40%, which was far higher than Rockefeller’s…”
Thomas explained slowly.
“And then?”
“The people from Rockefeller seem to have discovered our intentions. They are also determined to win this subway project, so they have made a huge sacrifice. Just a few days ago, the people from Rockefeller met with the vice president of the subway administration and promised that if they can win this project, they will change the management rights of the subway project from five years to two years!” Thomas continued.
“Five years to two years… Is this Birdie Schroder crazy?”
Connor said in a low voice.
“Yes, if we can operate it for five years, then this project will definitely be profitable. However, if it becomes two years, then this project will at most not lose money. If we want to compete with Rockefeller for this project, we have to give up a larger portion of the profits. If we do that, then it won’t be meaningful for us to get this project…”
Connor didn’t know much about the company affairs, so he took the initiative to ask, “Why is it meaningless?
Thomas paused for a moment and then analyzed, “Mr. McDonald, are you trying to get this project to lure Birdie Schroder to meet you?”
“That’s right!”
Connor nodded lightly.
“Then, Mr. McDonald, if we want Birdie Schroder to take the initiative to meet you, it’s not just because you’ve won this project. It’s because we must have the strength to compete with Rockefeller while also winning this project. We have to make sure that Rockefeller won’t be able to win any projects in Porthampton in the future. Only then will Rockefeller realize the crisis and be forced to meet you…”
Thomas explained patiently.
“Alright…”
“Mr. McDonald, we have already invested a lot of energy into this subway project. If we continue to give up our interests, the company may face a huge crisis, and it won’t be one we can recover from in a short period of time. This means that we will lose the ability to compete with Rockefeller for other projects. At that time, not only will Rockefeller’s people not meet you, but this will also be a situation that benefits them. Their losses this time can be made up for in the future, but our company will be in a huge crisis because of the rupture of the economic chain. This is not a good idea!”
Thomas said in a serious tone.
Connor could not help but take a deep breath as he held his phone. The expression on his face was a complicated one.
Originally, Connor thought that as long as he won this project at any cost, the people of Rockefeller would not be able to sit still. However, after hearing Thomas’s words, Connor realized that the real way to make Rockefeller take the initiative to contact him was to make them lose the subway project and all subsequent projects. Only then would the people of Rockefeller be truly afraid. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
The reason why Rockefeller’s people chose to give up on profits was obviously to force Connor to make a choice.
Otherwise, Connor would make a bigger concession to get the project, but this would cause Thomas’s company in Porthampton to enter an endless cycle of recouping costs.
Connor was indeed very rich, but once there was such a huge break in the capital chain, there was only so much they could do. Most importantly, the company would not be able to recover in a short period of time. Rockefeller’s people could take this opportunity to expand their power.
If Connor gave up on this project now, it would mean that all their efforts during this period of time would be in vain.
For a moment, Connor began to feel a little troubled. He was, after all, an ordinary person. The business world was like a battlefield. His way of dealing with these things was naturally not as good as those people from Rockefeller.
“Is there no other way?”
Connor asked in a low voice.
“Ways?”
Thomas hesitated for a moment before he said in a low voice, “Mr. McDonald, there is indeed a way, but this matter can only be handled by you…”
“What method? Just say it!”
Connor replied indifferently.
“Actually, this method is very simple. I mentioned it to you before. Commander Shaw’s younger brother is the general manager of our subway headquarters. If you can contact Commander Shaw and ask the general manager of the subway headquarters to give this project to us internally, then things will be much simpler…”
Thomas said slowly.
“This…”
After Connor heard Thomas’s words, a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes. He did not know what to do.
After all, Connor and Joey did not have much of a relationship. The reason why Joey was able to help Connor back then was also because of Rachel Wallace.
Therefore, if Connor wanted to get to know Joey’s brother, he had to find Rachel, then contact Joey through Rachel and finally get into contact with Joey’s brother.
This was equivalent to going around in a very big circle.
Connor had always not wanted Rachel to participate in his matters, but he did not expect that things would still come back to this in the end.
Connor hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, “Other than this method, is there no other way?”
“No, this is the best solution I can think of at the moment. As long as you can find Commander Shaw, then with his relationship and the price difference of our offer, I think it should be no problem for us to win this project!”
Thomas said slowly.
“Alright, I got it!”
Connor replied expressionlessly and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Connor lay on the bed alone with a conflicted expression on his face.
He was conflicted about whether he should contact Rachel or not, and whether Rachel would help him!
After thinking for a while, Connor still looked up Rachel’s phone number and dialed it.
Connor knew that Rachel might be his last hope. If she could help, it would be the best outcome. If not, then there was nothing he could do. He had tried his best.
