From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330: Chapter 189: None of Them Are Good People

Mark turned to look at Bird. BlackRock was a massive fund on par with Morgan; how could they not be interested in new technology?

After all, BlackRock’s tentacles reached into every sector, so of course they had a hand in the field of artificial intelligence.

As the realization dawned, a look of fear crossed Mark’s face. ’A small fry like me is nothing before these two behemoths.’

He supposed he should be grateful. ’If BlackRock wasn’t holding my majority shareholder’s stake in proxy, Morgan would have forced me out long ago.’

’On the other hand... without Morgan’s involvement, BlackRock would have eventually swallowed me whole...’

And just like that, a damned, delicate balance was struck.

Bird guessed that Su Chen had seen right through their schemes, but he maintained a calm facade and said, "You’re joking, Mr. Su. The specific details will need to be discussed between you and Morgan."

Bird felt a sense of helplessness. ’If our fund wasn’t holding Su Chen’s fifty-one percent stake in proxy, we would have acquired Longteng in a heartbeat, leaving Morgan no chance at all.’

But they *were* holding Su Chen’s shares in proxy. If they went behind his back to acquire Mark’s shares and improperly sell Longteng Technology’s new tech, their years of hard-earned reputation would be torn apart by consortiums like Morgan.

The slightest misstep could lead to a major disaster, which was not something he or the higher-ups wanted to see.

Swindling assets from under a top-tier client was a scenario no one wanted to entertain.

Furthermore, Su Chen, this majority shareholder, was clearly no simple character. He had managed to purchase the Longteng Technology shares from them in the first place. Who would believe he didn’t have a powerful background?

This was also why BlackRock had teamed up with Morgan to block information about Longteng Technology’s new tech—they wanted to keep this prize pig for themselves, to be shared between the two of them at most.

Previously, Bird knew Su Chen wasn’t paying much attention to the matter and hadn’t told him the specifics of the new technology, hoping to take advantage of the chaos and get Su Chen to entrust the entire affair to them.

But he never expected that during their second phone call, Su Chen would actually agree to come to the Bay Area. This caught Bird completely off guard.
