    “This “Brother Owen” is only given for Chris Owen’s sake.


    It didn’t exist before, and don’t expect it in the future.


    V’Since you ept my kindness, you should also understand my difficulties?”


    Chris Owen sipped his tea, smiling.


    Harrison rk put down his teacup, shook his head, and said sinctly,


    “Sorry, not for sale.?’


    Chris Owen was slightly taken aback, “I haven’t even made an offer yet. You won’t even listen??’


    Harrison rk continued shaking his head, ?’I won’t sell mypany, and the amount of your offer has nothing to do with my decision.?’


    “If there is strong capital interest in acquiring yourpany, even if you don’t want to sell, you should listen to the other party’s offer, as it helps to understand your own value more urately. Your approach does not conform to business rules and you will easily suffer losses.


    After being rejected bluntly by Harrison rk, Chris Owen was not angry, but spoke with a hidden meaning in his words.


    Harrison rk did not deny, “Yes, that’s why I’ve basically handed over all business management decisions to my general manager. I’m very self-aware.?’


    “Mr. rk, you have a very talented general manager.


    “Thankyou for thepliment, I will pass it on to him.”


    Chris Owen nodded slightly, “Mr. rk, are you really not interested in my offer??’


    ?’No.’


    “But my people have already done the work in advance. If I don’t talk to you, it seems that their work will be meaningless. How about giving me some


    face??’


    ?’Face must be given, Mr. Owen, please go ahead?”


    Chris Owen held up one finger.


    “0ne hundred million??’ Harrison rk asked, “Isn’t that a bit low??’


    Chris Owen shook his head, “No, I’ll invest one billion and only buy 51% of


    yourpany’s shares.?’


    Harrison rk’s eyelid twitched.


    He didn’t want to admit it, but he was indeed somewhat shocked.


    Since its establishment, Summit Ventures has indeed made many breakthroughs in a short period.


    Whether it’s the brand of their own artists, or the copyrighted songs they’ve authorized, none of them aren’t popr.


    The relevant paid use authorization system has also been quickly set up, and profits are already pouring in at an average of millions per week.


    But no matter how you calcte it, Summit Ventures’ monthly profit rate is just barely approaching ten million, mainly due to the concentrated release of many works, causing a short-term burst in revenue.


    ording to usual rules, Summit Ventures’ profit levels should continue to decline in theing period and stabilize at a figure in the millions.


    Chris Owen’s opening offer basically valued thepany at nearly two billion, which was quite astonishing.


    Seeing Harrison rk’s stunned expression, Chris Owen finally felt a sense of aplishment.


    Of course, this offer was not made out of caprice.


    Chris Owen, who built the business empire of the Whale Group, was no ordinary person.


    The seemingly hasty decision was founded on a thorough and urate evaluation system.


    Harrison rk considered his current value.


    But Chris Owen saw not just now, but also the future.


    He had aplete grasp of Summit Ventures’ current value and potential value.


    The motivation for his acquisition interest was, of course, driven by his concern for Ward Owen.


    But Ward Owen was only an extrinsic factor. When Chris’s people finished their investigation, he realized that this seemed to be a money-making opportunity. It is worth investing in Summit Ventures and Harrison rk as a person; that is the intrinsic factor.


    One billion in valuation seemed high, but that was only under the current circumstances. If ced in the future, this amount of money had a significant chance of turning into even greater benefits.


    At this moment, Harrison rk was thinking.


    Should he just sell thepany and use this money to start anew?


    With several hundred million as start-up funds, many previously unthinkable things would be feasible.


    ?’What do you think? I offered a very sincere price?


    Harrison rk nodded, “Yes.”


    ”And I promise that except for taking my no-good son back, I will not interfere with your management and operations. Thispany is still under your control. After all, the true value of Summit Ventures lies not only in the already sessful songs, but also in you as a creator. What I offer one billion for is not just yourpany, but also you as a person. You must at least continue to write songs for Summit Ventures for ten years?”


    Chris Owen’s momentum suddenly soared, speaking in a very domineering manner, as if Summit Ventures was already his for the taking.


    But Harrison rk instantly lost his interest.


    Just go away.


    You want to buy me for ten years with one billion?


    You must be living in a dream.


    Since he couldn’t sell his stake and cash out, Harrison rk saw no need for negotiation.


    Harrison rk wasn’t a fool. As a shameless worker, he knew that as long as he persevered in his efforts, the value of Summit Ventures would never be limited to one billion, especially with someone as capable as Julia Lambert working for him.


    Even if he followed the development path of his previous failed timeline, thepany’s valuation had reached several billion before his ill-fated science fiction film project.


    He could make money on his own, so there was no need to work for free.


    When Harrison rk looked at Chris Owen again, he was no longer as pleasing or cordial.


    No wonder Chris Owen could make it to the top of the Whale Group. He was truly a ruthless and fast-acting old fox.


    Not only did he want to regain his son, but he also wanted to include himself on the deal.


    If it weren’t for Harrison rk’s foreknowledge of a future opportunity, he might have really been tempted to jump into the one billion pit..
