Chapter 374 Wolves Let Loose
???????????????
From the hero's point of view, even if the government of the Blue Dawn Republic couldn't see that this whole thing was clearly either sabotage or an accident, they should still be able to tell that the Black Tiger had more to lose in this matter than anyone else.
After all, their agreement clearly stipulated that the Black Tiger would be responsible for all the expenses in the project, other than the cost of land, which was to be provided by the government. In exchange, they could charge a favorable rate for the energy produced for the next fifty years.
In the hero's mind, it was yet another loss making business with the 'future' returns in mind.
The man on the screen in front of him seemed to shiver in fright. "W-We're trying to negotiate with the officials, b-but they seem to have received 'concrete evidence' that our company cooperated with the neighboring Commonwealth of Red Dusk to 'ruin their reputation'. All remaining surveillance and documentation records have been seized and frozen—!"
The hero couldn't bear to listen to him anymore, and disconnected the video call with a sneer. "That shithole of a country actually dares to look down on us like this, huh?!"
His father had already made it clear to him that he could handle the situation as he saw fit, and this could be considered as practicing his muscles first before he was ready to deal with the heavier tasks.
Naturally, Mr. Black was still there to advise him whenever he sought, but he would not interfere with any of his son's decisions.
The silver-haired boy knew that the officials of the Blue Dawn Republic had always tried to curry favor with his father, and it was impossible for them to dare make such a move without reason.
There definitely had to be someone hiding in the shadows and pulling the strings!
Amos didn't need to think twice to come to a decision. At this point, the government had yet to 'prove their guilt', but their future decision was all but clear. It was better to recover everything they could while there was still time, and reinvest it in a more profitable market.
This would not only minimize their loss, but also force the Blue Dawn Republic to make its stance clear in public. Either they had to bow down and back off, or… bring the black hand behind them to light!
Amos believed it was a genius move on his part, and not to mention those competitors watching the 'fun', even his father must be impressed in his heart!
He may hate the man, but his acknowledgment was undoubtedly a requirement to establish a firm foothold in the Black Tiger Corporation at first. Once he had what he wanted… it wouldn't be too late to kick the bastard out.
The hero's actions were decisive, and with Mr. Black acting as a proxy, the entirety of Black Tiger Corporation followed his will like a well-oiled machine.
At first, most people believed the whole thing to be an accident. The government's moves were thought to be just pointing fingers at a convenient place in a panic to shirk responsibility as well.
But when the Black Tiger announced complete withdrawal from the Blue Dawn Republic, not to mention the people of the country itself, even the heads of other organizations who had been 'watching the fun' were left stunned.
Wasn't this killing the hen when it laid one rotten egg? Which one of them hadn't had a few disputes with unreasonable governments?
All it took were a few well-placed bribes, and the situation would tide over, right? Who abandons an entire country for one failed project?!
But as one of the top organizations in the world, the Black Tiger really did have the strength to be so arrogant and willful, and these people could only lament that they didn't have the capital to be so unreasonable.
For some ill-managed countries, the damage their economies would suffer from the withdrawal of such a giant was like pulling out a piece of their backbone. Even if they didn't die, they still wouldn't be able to stand up again in a short period of time.
With hundreds of thousands losing their jobs overnight, and many previously 'household name' services going abruptly dark, it was as if someone had splashed a bucket of cold water over the entire country.
Anyone could tell that this was an extreme power move from the Black Tiger, but like a gunshot in the dark, whom it would kill in the end still remained to be seen. Would the government bow down and compromise first, or would they stay stubborn and eat this loss?
Before the situation could boil over, however, in a move that shocked the world, the leader of the Gray Wolfe signed a public agreement with the Blue Dawn Republic.
Not only did they plan to fill all the holes left behind by the Black Tiger, they even went above and beyond!
It must be noted that while many top organizations were previously optimistic about the Blue Dawn Republic, that was well in the past.
As it was now, no one wanted to dive into this muddy water in an attempt to catch a few tiny fish when there was still a boundless ocean out in the world.
But the Gray Wolfe still did it! What did that mean?
It was like slapping the Black Tiger Corporation's face in public, but since it was the number one corporation in the world doing it, no one found it that strange, and only had a feeling of schadenfreude.
It looked like the Gray Wolfe wanted to chew through the Black Tiger, wearing it down before swallowing this 'behemoth' whole!
It wasn't like this kind of thing hadn't happened in the past, but even the Gray Wolfe had never dared go against an opponent of this scale so openly!
The people in the know could feel their nerves vibrate in excitement as they got ready to watch the 'show'.
Whether the beast succeeded or failed, they were ready and waiting to grab the stray pieces of meat!
