This was a question Jack dreaded the most, but since Jasper had asked it, Jack had no choice but to muster his courage and reply, “Everyone’s still discussing what to do. Some of them support the idea of applying for a trading halt, while some of them favor waiting it out and letting it hit the limit down price first before they make a decision.”
As he looked at the group of subordinates that were staring at him in anticipation, Jack’s heart softened at the fact that these people were hesitant about making a mistake. “Mr. Laine, we don’t actually have any good suggestions…”
“It’s okay, I know what you’re trying to say.”
Jasper interrupted Jack.
While he was irritated at Sena’s senior executives’ impulsiveness and irresponsible attitude toward their work, he could not blame everything on his subordinates or their superior, Jack.
“There’s no need to discuss further, I’ve already made my decision. As Sena’s President, Jack, I need you to immediately apply for us to issue additional shares with the Nasdaq Review Committee.
“JW Capital will immediately transfer 1 billion Somer Dollars to increase the number of shares on the market. This is a major asset restructuring, so for the next three days, Sena’s shares will not have any price limits.”
Jasper’s words had Jack feeling lightheaded.
“Mr… Mr. Laine, there are too many risks in doing that.”
Jasper replied calmly, “I’ve already considered all the risks. Jack, ever since I first invited you to be a part of JW, every decision I made was risky. But when have I ever lost?
“Trust me.”
Jack fell silent for a moment when he heard Jasper’s voice echo through the speakers. Taking a deep breath, he grit his teeth and replied, “I’ll get to it immediately, Mr. Laine!
“I’ll have JW Capital release a statement.”
