The Amazing son in law Chapter 6972
Helena beamed and remarked, “I’ll eagerly anticipate your performance. If you excel, then not just half a pill, but even one or two pills will be absolutely fine!”
Unbeknownst to Howard, Helena’s words were merely empty assurances. Upon hearing her, he felt as though he had received a crucial promise, and his spirits soared. His greatest concern had always been the limited availability of the pills. Each pill sold meant one less for him. What if he needed more pills in the future to extend his life only to discover they were no longer available? It would be too late for rescue. If Charlie Wade could provide him with one or two additional pills, he believed living to a hundred years old was within reach!
…
Meanwhile, Howard’s son, Steve, stood before Charlie Wade, his expression one of astonishment.
Just moments earlier, Charlie Wade had made a surprising request of him—to purchase the largest private remote sensing satellite company in the United States.
Although Steve was uncertain about Charlie Wade’s intentions with the company, he suspected it was for personal use. Thus, he inquired, “Mr. Wade, will the company be transferred directly to you after the purchase?”
Charlie Wade waved his hand dismissively. “Once you secure a controlling stake, do your best to remove the other shareholders from the board. After they’re out, you’ll appoint a professional to manage the company’s daily operations. I’ll have the final say on who that professional will be. I’ll prepare the necessary information for you, and then you can announce this person as the new CEO, completing the transition.”
Even though Charlie Wade was keen on acquiring the remote sensing satellite company, he feared that the scrutiny from the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security could strip the company of its advantages almost immediately.
Thus, Charlie Wade intended for Steve to act as a front, managing the company. The firm’s primary function would be to continuously update the global satellite map library. Whoever owned the company would gain access to the most up-to-date and high-definition civilian satellite maps, providing invaluable resources for AI development to enhance its database.
Additionally, with a person chosen by Charlie Wade at the helm, he would have the ability to control the satellite’s focus. Whenever Charlie Wade needed to examine a specific area, he could simply inform this individual, who would then adjust the satellite’s settings to monitor the desired location closely.
After considering Charlie Wade’s request, Steve nodded and replied respectfully, “Absolutely, Mr. Wade. This is a task that can certainly be accomplished with a few billion dollars. You can count on me.”
Charlie Wade replied, “What’s the total cost for the acquisition? I’ll cover it myself. Your role is to leverage your influence to mitigate any potential policy risks.”
Steve quickly responded, “Mr. Wade, you’re being too kind. It’s just a few billion dollars. I’ll handle it all and ensure you won’t be disappointed.”
Charlie Wade insisted, “Since this is my target acquisition, I should be the one to pay. Don’t worry about the finances. Your focus should be on ensuring that the U.S. government and national security agencies don’t interfere.”
“Rest assured, Mr. Wade,” Steve assured him. “With my involvement, the U.S. government and national security will certainly not pose any issues. As long as we agree on the price with the current team, there will be no further problems.”
Charlie Wade nodded slightly and looked at Steve earnestly. “Steve, this matter is of great significance to me. If you help me secure this company, I’ll gladly welcome you in Aurous Hill!”
