Alex thought about it for a moment before he said, “I don’t really have many requests, but please turn a blind eye on what we do regarding our conflict with Ivy Media Group. Also, please give me a piece of land and a tax exemption for at least five years.”
He smiled as he picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass. “I won’t hide it from you. I am from the Jefferson family from Lumenopolis. My father and Daniel Hardy have always been good friends. I met him ten years ago, and we talked over the phone some time ago to discuss this matter. He really hopes that I will build the technology company at Larnwick. Oh, right, he also promised that he can help me take a bank loan of 25 billion.”
Daniel Hardy was a person of authority in Larnwick. Though Alex was obviously boasting, Evans still took him seriously.
Daniel and Evans were competitors. If Alex were to set up the 100 billion investment in Larnwick, he would have to forget about returning to Lumenopolis; he would most likely have to remain in Nebula City and take a back seat in the political scene.
“How is that a problem? If you want a piece of land, just let us know after you make your pick. As for the other issues, as long as you do not do anything illegal, we won’t intervene,” Evans said, smiling.
That was exactly what Alex wanted to hear. With a laugh, he said, “Alright then. I’ll give you the -preliminary project plan within a week.”
Based on the influence of Penguin Group, Alex knew that Evans would definitely be more biased toward them, thus he had no choice but to bring forward the plans for the technology company.
The establishment of that company was not something that was decided in the spur of the moment. A month ago, Alex had already discussed the matter with Jack.
Eurasia always faced technical restrictions compared to the Westmarch region in terms of producing high–end microchips. Nevertheless, large companies in the country had no ambition to explore such business.
After all, if one wanted to sanction such a heavy project in research and development, there was a high chance of burning hundreds of billions. No one would want to take the risk.
However, what Alex did not expect was that Jack actually had that ambition.
Thus, both of them hit it off. But, the plan to start on the project next year was unexpectedly messed up by Penguin Group, who had gotten in their way.
In order to win Evans‘ favor, Alex had no choice but to bring the plan forward.
As long as Evans was not biased toward Ivy Media Group, Alex would have a way to ensure that the group will not last in Nebula City.
-Ivy Media Group was pulling dirty tricks behind my back. I can do that too, and even more ruthlessly!
At the People’s Hospital.
Simon Nixon, who had just finished surgery on his bone, looked furious.

Chapter 403 I Want Them Bankrupt
Both Madison Zucker and he had both their legs broken. Even though medical technology has improved a lot these days, he would never be able to walk normally again if he did not stay bedridden for another two to three months.
“Go inform Gavin and tell him that he must find out who my attacker was within three days no matter what it takes!” Simon shouted at his secretary, Paige, with gritted teeth.
His father was the vice–chairman of Penguin Group and he had finally managed to obtain a job as the head of Ivy Media Group. He had just arrived in Nebula City but was beaten to the point of being handicapped. How could he not be angry?
On top of that, he had to stay in bed for a few months; the head office would definitely send another person to take over his job and take charge of Ivy Media Group. If he did not kill his assailant, he would never let go of the hatred in him.
“I’ve informed Mr. Wells know about this. He said he’ll help us investigate the matter.”
Paige hesitated before she went on, “Mr. Nixon, I suspect that Four Seas Cooperation is behind this
