Chapter 258 - 258 He Is Ordinary!
258 He Is Ordinary!
Once this condition was stated, it made Louis Neal and Liam Neal even more tempted.
Because Hugo Skeeter said this for the sake of the Neal Corporation.
The previous cooperation between the Neal Corporation and Starbright Manufacturing was to jointly produce anti-gravity devices for use in aircraft.
It was mainly used on passenger planes.
This was the main business of Starbright Manufacturing!
The Hugo Corporation could avoid them and not produce any anti-gravity devices that were compatible with aircraft.
This prevented competition.
It was still manufactured by Starbright Manufacturing, and the situation of one company dominating the market would not change.
Hugo Corporation even offered to give 70% of the net profit to the Neal Corporation.
This was a great temptation!
Louis thought for a long time and finally nodded. “We can’t decide on this matter tonight. Logically speaking, our Neal Corporation needs to discuss it with our partner, Starbright Manufacturing!”
“Sure!”
Hugo was extremely patient.
He was certain that the two leaders in front of him were already tempted by his offer.
“It’s getting late. Please rest early.” Louis stood up and smiled.
“Chairman Neal, you should rest early too!” Hugo and the others went to the guest room that the Neal family had arranged for them.
The few of them had just left the bright hall.
“Young Master, aren’t we making too big of a concession to the Neal Corporation?” The white-haired man hesitated.
“Yeah, if we give them 70% of the net profit, the Hugo Corporation needs to build a factory, purchase equipment, and bear other costs. That’s a huge sum of money.”
The other three had the same opinion.
“You fools!” Hugo glanced over and scolded coldly.
The four of them were stunned. They did not expect that them being concerned about the company would get them a scolding in return.
Hugo said calmly, “This business must be done. There is only one company in the world that manages anti-gravity devices. Before visiting the Neal family, my father personally went to the headquarters of Starbright Manufacturing. You should have guessed the result!”
The four people around could vaguely guess the answer.
If Hugo Corporation could reach a cooperation with Starbright Manufacturing, Hugo would not have to come to the Neal family.
Starbright Manufacturing did not allow anyone to interfere in their company’s matters.
Hugo said softly, “As long as this business is done, our corporation will make a huge profit if we don’t lose anything. Once the anti-gravity device is put on the market, the Neal family and the Starbright Manufacturing side will be the oligarchs!
“The price of the anti-gravity device is up to them. Even if it’s sold at a sky-high price, we, who are in a passive position, have to lower our heads and buy it.
“Also, do you think that the only industries that require the anti-gravity device once it enters the market are aviation and shipping?”
…
Hugo looked at the four of them deeply.
Once the technology of the anti-gravity device was fully developed, it would have a subversive effect on all industries.
Sea and air, naval, construction, military industries, and so on.
All of them would use this!
The future was what the Hugo Corporation was betting on to reach a partnership with the Neal Corporation.
If one took the right step in the future, when it came to business, it would bring you shocking wealth.
It was just like how many internet companies had spawned billionaires over the years.
Therefore, Hugo wanted to reach a cooperation with the Neal Corporation at all costs.
Even if he had to give up a portion of the benefits, he was willing to do so!
The Hugo Corporation was not the only freight company in the world. In the face of the international freight market, the Hugo Corporation was just a green leaf of a towering tree.
The importance of anti-gravity devices in the shipping industry did not need further explanation.
Hugo represented the stance of Hugo Corporation!
His father was not young anymore. Hugo had been taking over the company’s affairs because he was planning to take over.
Although Hugo was arrogant, his vision and talent were probably above Harold Sage!
People who could manage international trade did not lack strategic foresight.
Hugo returned to his residence and sat on the sofa, twirling the wine in his wine glass. Suddenly, he asked, “What do you think of the eldest young master of the Neal family?”
“Ordinary!”
“Very ordinary!”
“Compared to his father, the difference is too great!”
“He was born into a wealthy family and will take over the Neal Corporation’s billion-dollar business empire in the future. His temperament is calm and quiet, as if he has nothing to do with the world. If he was the second son of the family, he could be a supporting talent. However, he is the eldest son. If the Neal family is handed over to him, the future will be worrying!”
…
The four of them voiced their opinions.
Without exception, they all felt that Braydon Neal was much too ordinary.
Hugo took a deep look at the four of them and sighed in his heart. Although the four of them had some talent, they were still ordinary people!
They could not sense the aura of the eldest young master of the Neal family. It was strong and extended. The strength of a martial artist was definitely not low!
With just the strength of a powerful martial artist, he could protect the Neal Corporation for a hundred years.
This was also the reason why the wealthy families were trying their best to nurture martial artists.
Nurturing high-level martial artists, becoming an aristocratic family, coming into contact with powerful martial artists, and having extraordinary influence and terrifying connections in the secular world.
If they could make friends with the local special operations team, with the Preston main team protecting them, it would be hard for them to fall.
All parties had to give in to the people the special operations team wanted to protect.
In the end, Hugo said softly, “There are no mediocre people in the wealthy families.There are no good-for-nothings in the direct line of descent!”
He sighed lightly, proving that he could tell that Braydon was not a simple person.
At the very least, this eldest son of the Neal family had mastered anti-gravity technology. Even if he left the Neal family and established his own family, he could still break into a new world.
The next day arrived.
“Chairman Louis, Fourth Master Liam, where’s Young Master Braydon?” Hugo came to the bright hall upon invitation.
“Braydon trains in the morning. It’s the same every day. Let’s ignore him for now.”
Liam Neal brushed it off with one sentence.
He could not say that Braydon could not be bothered with such a small matter.
It would be awkward for everyone to say that.
Hugo’s eyes flashed. “I also know a little about martial arts. I need to visit Young Master Braydon later to exchange pointers.”
“He has nothing to do, so it’s convenient for you young people to communicate,” Louis Neal said.
Liam began to talk about serious matters, saying, “Last night, I communicated with Starbright Manufacturing. There was a small problem.
“Starbright Manufacturing’s main business is aircraft manufacturing. It produces all kinds of accessories. It has no experience in the shipping industry”
Hugo opened his mouth, and his words were sharp. He said in a serious tone, “The Hugo Corporation is mainly in the shipping industry and has connections with shipping companies from all over the world. Once the anti-gravity device is suitable for mass production, our corporation can use our connections to sell it, and we will have a large profit.
“Fourth Master Liam, you should be clear about this. The Hugo Corporation promised last night that the anti-gravity device we produce will only be used on cargo ships. This will not affect Starbright Manufacturing!
“They think that this cooperation doesn’t benefit them directly, hence it shows that their vision is much too narrow. In other words, it will harm the interests of both our families.”
…
At this moment, Hugo was already faintly dissatisfied with Starbright Manufacturing.
