Life at the Top Chapter 2009
Under the mutual attack and defense between Jasper and Soros, an unprecedented situation was presented in the domestic A-share market.
With the cliff-like decline of the tertiary industry and the steady growth of the heavy industry, these two opposed trends appeared together in the financial market.
Generally speaking, financial markets had their own set of rules.
Taking the real estate industry as an example, the rise or fall of the real estate industry would immediately affect the market changes of upstream industrial chains such as building materials and construction. One had to understand that i t was impossible to build a house without steel bars, cement, and sand.
Meanwhile, the rise and fall of the building materials and construction industries would affect the market of the upstream mining industry.
The expansion or contraction of the overall industry would directly affect the salary and income level of the workers in the industry, thereby influencing the stability of thousands of families and cause resulting changes in the consumer economy and consumer goods…
Therefore, the economic system of any country and society was a cycle, and had natural domino effects. A problem in one o f the sectors would inevitably affect the entire system.
Therefore, in a financial system, it was almost impossible to see several industries soaring while several other industries were plummeting with such a huge disparity for no reason unless it was man-made.
This situation in the domestic A-share market showed that the struggle between Jasper and Soros had reached a white-hot stage.
It did not need any foreshadowing or prelude at all. The moment it started, it would become the most violent battle.
In the Nauritus City command center, Jasper was staying idle.
Since the two sides had completely shed all pretense and started fighting, then they should hit where it hurt and draw blood with every move. The team of traders would be in charge of the specific operations and Baz and Jake would be giving orders in the middle. After Jasper came up with a strategic plan, they needed to control the flow of the entire situation.
Before the general direction changed, all h e needed to do was wait for the situation t o change or the confrontation between the two sides to begin to tilt.
It was just that Jasper’s brain was still running fast. He was constantly analyzing Soros’s next actions and what strategy he could use to deal with these possibilities.
At this moment, Jasper received an unexpected call.
It was Dean.
“Mr. Laine, 30 minutes ago, I was appointed by the Chamber of Commerce. From now on, I am the executive vice
president of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce and I will be presiding over the work.”
Jasper was taken aback for a moment.
Was Gale someone who would delegate power so easily?
This was not in line with Jasper’s understanding and judgment of him.
“What happened?”
Jasper, who was keenly aware that something had gone wrong, asked calmly.
“It’s grandpa… He was diagnosed with a terminal illness six months ago.”
Dean’s tone sounded very complicated, it was unknown if he was happy, disappointed, or sad.
Jasper froze when he heard the words.
Gale’s scheming and calculating face appeared in his mind, but the first sentence he said was, “How could this be? His body is still strong,”
“He’s just bracing himself this whole time, and since there is no need to worry about the cost of his treatment, in the past six months, apart from himself and the medical team, this news had not gotten out at all. At this moment, Mr. Laine, you are only the second person who knows about this.”
