Chapter 249
March 7th: "The future shareholders of Penacony... Sister Himeko??"
Stelle: "!!!"
Stelle: "Shocking!!"
Stelle: "Sister Himeko has become a major shareholder of Penacony!!!"
Stelle: "My goodness!!!"
Stelle: "Sister Himeko is going to get rich!!"
Furina: "Uh... I really didn't expect Lady Jade to actually propose making Miss Himeko a shareholder of Penacony?"
Himeko: "That might not be entirely accurate; the person becoming a shareholder might not be me."
Himeko: "I am merely a representative."
Himeko: "The true shareholders should be all the members of the Astral Express."
Stelle: "!!!"
Stelle: "Got it!!"
Stelle: "I am a shareholder of Penacony, a big boss!!"
Stelle: "Hahahahaha, I'm going to get rich!!"
March 7th: "My god... is this for real?"
March 7th: "Have we really become shareholders of Penacony?"
March 7th: "You aren't joking, are you?"
March 7th: "Never mind, let's keep watching and see what's actually going on."
The video continues.
【Heh heh, as I thought...】
【Is this beautiful lady before me the navigator of the Astral Express?】
【Nice to meet you, nice to meet you.】
Old Odi suddenly realized,
and greeted Himeko.
【You are all already aware of the general content of the proposal.】
【According to the plan, after this round of financing, the IPC will hold 30% of Penacony's shares.】
【Afterward, the IPC will transfer 5% of those shares to the Astral Express and nominate Ms. Himeko as an independent director, in recognition of the sacrifices and contributions made by the Nameless throughout history to the Land of Dreams.】
Furina: "Only five percent?"
Furina: "Uh... isn't that a bit low?"
Furina: "After all, the contributions of the Nameless to Penacony can by no means be defined by a mere five percent stake!"
Welt: "From the perspective of wealth, a five percent stake in Penacony is already a massive asset."
Welt: "Of course, compared to the wealth it represents, the authority that comes with being an independent director is actually what matters most."
Himeko: "Exactly. With this status, to a certain extent, the Astral Express will have the right to intervene in anything that happens in Penacony in the future."
Himeko: "And we won't be blocked like outsiders anymore."
Himeko: "This can serve as a supervisory role."
Hu Tao: "That may be so, but I also feel five percent is a bit low."
Furina: "I think, to show sincerity, Old Odi should also cough up five percent!"
Miss Qingque: "Forget it, Old Odi is a businessman!"
Miss Qingque: "To him, let alone five percent, even zero point one percent would be like cutting off his own flesh!"
Miss Qingque: "He can't control the IPC giving away its own shares."
Miss Qingque: "But wanting to cut his flesh, I think that's unrealistic."
Guinaifen: "Not necessarily, right?"
Guinaifen: "After all, the Family is currently in a position where they need the Astral Express."
Guinaifen: "According to social etiquette, he should show some gesture."
Stelle: "Five percent of the shares..."
Stelle: "Dan Heng gets a share, March gets a share, Mr. Yang gets a share, Sister Himeko gets a share..."
Stelle: "Oh!"
Stelle: "That means I indirectly hold one percent!"
Stelle: "Good, good, good, I'm a shareholder of Penacony too!"
Stelle: "I'm a person of status from now on!"
March 7th: "Well said!"
March 7th: "But Sister Himeko is the independent director, not you."
Stelle: "Director or not doesn't matter, as long as I have the shareholder status!"
Guinaifen: "Boss Stelle, please look after me!!"
Guinaifen: "I want to go play in Penacony in the future too!"
Guinaifen: "What do you think? (Rubbing hands in anticipation. pg)"
Stelle: "Easy, easy!"
Stelle: "Just come, I'll definitely cover your food and lodging!"
Miss Qingque: "Yay! Long live Boss Stelle!!"
Fu Xuan: "Miss Qingque, wipe that look off your face!"
The video continues.
【Although everything is not yet set in stone, we are deeply honored that everyone here recognizes the Express's Path of Trailblaze.】
【The Nameless do not embark on journeys for fame or profit.】
【But if both the Family and the IPC have this intention, we will fulfill our duties as board members.】
【After a vote by all members of the Express, the Astral Express will assist in the reconstruction of Penacony.】
【Beyond that, in our future travels, we will also commit to bringing the dreams of the Planet of Festivities to more worlds.】
【Of course, all cooperation is based on one premise—】
【The Path of Harmony that Penacony upholds must not be distorted again; the same tragedy must never happen a second time.】
March 7th: "Becoming a shareholder means we have to help promote Penacony?"
March 7th: "As expected, the Family wants to borrow the reputation of our Astral Express."
Stelle: "Not a loss!"
Stelle: "It's just promotion, and there's no rule saying how much effort we have to put in, right?"
Stelle: "Besides, as a shareholder, the more prosperous Penacony is, won't our own value skyrocket?"
Sparkle: "Hehehe, the little gray-hair is about to fall into the money pit."
Stelle: "Not quite."
Stelle: "Honestly, money is just a number to me; I have no interest in money!"
Stelle: "But I am interested in this status!"
Stelle: "With this status, I'm a bona fide big boss in Penacony!"
Stelle: "Let's see who dares to be disrespectful to me now!"
Paimon: "That's great, everyone on the Express finally has a rich reward!"
Paimon: "Wuwuwu, Paimon also really, really wants to go to Penacony to see it!"
Paimon: "With Miss Stelle there, she'll definitely agree to let us in, right?"
Stelle: "Needless to say, just come to me if you're an acquaintance, I guarantee I'll arrange everything for you perfectly!"
Miss Sushang: "Ah, this... does this count as pulling strings?"
Miss Sushang: "I always feel it's a bit weird..."
Miss Qingque: "Oh my, how can this count as pulling strings?"
Miss Qingque: "Boss Stelle is a shareholder of Penacony!"
Miss Qingque: "This Penacony is just like her home!"
Miss Qingque: "She invites you to her home to play, isn't that reasonable and justified?"
Stelle: "Boss Qing is right!"
