Pike's boss was numb.
Originally, he thought that no matter how bad his company was, someone would still auction it off, and it would at least fetch 15 million US Dollars, but to his surprise, no one was willing to bid or take on the risks and debts.
Everyone in business seeks profit, but purchasing Pike Company not only offers little profit, there's an initial deficit of 20 million to cover, making it a bad deal. With money on hand, it would be better invested in other recycling companies that, at the very least, haven't failed and are still operating normally.
As the auction seemed soon to fail, the desperate boss of Pike turned his pleading eyes towards the General Sect Leader.
Allen Zhang understood that if he didn't step in, probably no one else would.
After a moment's thought, he decided to bid.
