Chapter 514: 191, Accidental Leak_3 Chapter 514: 191, Accidental Leak_3 The youth did not shrink back, indeed it required great courage, but in this world, courage alone is not enough to guarantee success.
This was a battle of totally unequal strength.
The youth’s fate was already sealed!
This was how every stockbroker on Wall Street viewed the situation.
At the mont, so people referred to Wall Street as a ga played within a small circle, with the power of discourse firmly in the hands of a few individuals.
Although previously, Donnie had successfully shorted Sinclair Oil Corporation using the dia and retail investors, this did not change Wall Street’s deep-rooted thinking.
Whether a stock rises or falls is entirely in the hands of Wall Street’s brokers; they are the ones who truly control the fate of a stock.
...
And those retail investors…
well, even a hundred years later, they still believed that these retail investors were their ATMs.
Whenever they needed money, they would just adjust the price of a stock, and a continuous stream of funds would flow into their pockets.
Now there’s no one left by Donnie’s side!
“Haha, this ti none of you have a way out, I want to see how you, Donnie Block, are going to salvage this situation!”
Harry Sinclair, who had been closely following the situation, even gave up his plans to travel to Egypt.
He wanted to see how Donnie would sink into this quagmire.
Originally, when ABC announced it was going to hold a major advertising sponsorship conference, it imdiately worried Harry Sinclair, who thought those wanting to weaken Donnie’s influence at ABC would drop their plans.
As a result, Harry Sinclair decided to leak this news.
“Harry, was it you who spread this news?”
Hein Howell’s call went directly to Harry Sinclair.
As a secret operation, neither Morgan nor Rockefeller wanted this matter to be known to outsiders before, as it would affect their prestige.
They were partners, and choosing to backstab, regardless of the reason, was a dishonorable act.
Therefore, apart from their own insiders, no outsider knew who was behind it.
It was clear that Hein Howell was one of their insiders, and he inford Harry Sinclair about it!
Having learned of the news, Hein Howell imdiately thought that neither Donnie Block nor those on the other side would publicize this matter.
Since it wasn’t them, it was very likely that it was Harry Sinclair who knew about it and had leaked it!
Faced with Howell’s questioning, Harry Sinclair rely curled his lip.
“Dear Hein, how could you suspect it was ?
How could I possibly do such a thing!”
Harry Sinclair was no fool, knowing that if those individuals found out about it, the outco would definitely not be good for him.
In the end, Hein Howell sighed and ended the call.
Regardless of whether Harry Sinclair had leaked the news, in his circle, it couldn’t have been him!
Otherwise, he would be in trouble too!
Young Rockefeller rubbed his head and, looking at George Whitney sitting across from him, couldn’t help but ask, “Was this news passed on by you Morgan guys?”
“How could it be!”
George Whitney imdiately denied it, saying, “We Morgan are not that stupid, it must be Donnie’s strategy, to make us wary and give up on this plan!”
“Damn it!” Young Rockefeller believed George Whitney’s words, although after the news spread, it would make their plan to short ABC even more successful.
But the implications were loathso.
George Whitney was also sowhat angry.
Just previously, he had firmly told Donnie that no one would know about it as soon as they left the conference room, yet in less than a day, the whole matter had spread all over Wall Street.
“It’s not Donnie either!”
Young Rockefeller was feeling a mix of anger and other emotions, but ultimately, he also denied that it was Donnie who had revealed it.
“This is a competition between us.
Donnie understands that if the news gets out, it’s bad for both him and us, pushing us both to a point of no reconciliation!”
At that mont, George Whitney also cald his anger.
Now, he truly regretted agreeing to Rockefeller’s request.
If Morgan had disagreed, the plan would not have succeeded.
Now, he no longer had to worry about this trouble and even started to receive praise from partners and the board at the company.
After all, without all these troubles, ABC going public would have certainly beco a blockbuster stock.
Now, they hadn’t caught the fish yet, but had already caused a whole lot of trouble!
“What’s the situation outside?”
Young Rockefeller asked with so headache.
It was truly a dilemma now.
The situation had developed to this point, and no one could back down anymore.
But by not retreating, they inevitably had to bear the infamy of stabbing a comrade in the back.
Although both Rockefeller and Morgan hadn’t risen to power cleanly,
they were now people of status.
And what people of status care about most is their reputation!
“Everyone is still guessing, but they’ve also basically accepted it!” George Whitney replied helplessly.
