Chapter 359


    Nevertheless, just having money was useless. If you had money, but not the knowledge of managing a


    This year, Aaron and Hendrix had discovered the profitable points of Fantasia Company. They were


    both experts in management. What they wanted was not to finance thepany but to acquire the


    whole business.


    I sat back in my seat half an hourter after I finished my presentation. One of the shareholders of


    Fantasia Company asked dubiously, "Director Reid, have you worked in the Roberts Group before?"


    I was surprised by that question. I knew nobody in Fantasia Company and was never featured in any of


    this city''s headlines. Looking at the shareholder, I recollected myself. "Yeah, I used to be the project


    director of Roberts Group."


    Everyone at the meeting table looked at each other and paused at the news that I''ve just delivered.


    Sherman looked at me and said, "Director Reid, I''m pretty sure you know this better than we do. For


    this past year, Hendrix Roberts from the Roberts Group had the intention of acquiring our business as


    well. But for some reason, he gave up the intention to purchase our business. What I would like to

    know is, did you y a role in this?"


    He continued with a smile. "Although Fantasia Company joined Granger Group through acquisition, we


    all know that what you truly value are our technicians. I hope that we can be honest at this point."


    Sherman was straightforward with his words. I smiled lightly and said truthfully, "The president of


    Roberts Group is my husband. I did y a role in Roberts Groups giving up on the acquisition of


    Fantasia Company."


    Saying that, everybody began whispering with each other. Sherman said calmly, "If that is so, can I


    know why did you stop Roberts Group from acquiring ourpany? If wepare, Fantasia would


    have a much better future and development if acquired by Roberts Group."


    I nodded and said, "Yes, indeed that is true." After a pause, I continued. "But have you forgotten that


    the Roberts Group still has Advancer Tech? Advancer Tech and Fantasia are both technology


    much actually. They only wanted the technology that Fantasia has, but these aren''t hard to find on the


    market. The Roberts'' acquisition of Fantasia isn''t really that profitable at all for the Roberts Group.


    That''s why Hendrix has been pushing the matter of acquisition for six months!"


    Looking at Sherman, I continued. "Mr. Hathaway, you should know that a techpany would not


    simply acquire another techpany if thepany itself wasn''t at a substantial stage. The Roberts


    Group''s main profits are from property and they only have one techpany, which is Advancer Tech,


    under their wing."


    Sherman nodded. He pursed his lips and frowned, then went deep into his thoughts. He paused and


    said, "We don''t know much about the situation of Granger Group. In terms of the proposal, the benefits


    offered by the Granger Group are definitely favorable but we can''t know for sure if Fantasia Company


    will do better under Granger Group in the future."


    Irvin raised his eyebrows and said, "Granger Group''s business mainly specializes in technology. Of


    course, we also specialize in jewelry and others. However, we still have our expertise in the technology


    industry. The main reason why we want to acquire Fantasia is because we think highly of the R&D of Al


    in Fantasia. Of course, with the acquisitiones a requirement. Within a year''s time, Fantasia must


    just be seen and developed as a normal techpany."


    Most of the shareholders at the meeting table turned pale upon hearing Irvin''s words. If Fantasia failed


    to meet Granger Group''s requirement after the acquisition, Fantasia would then be totally ousted by the


    market.
