Life at the Top
Chapter 787
Time ticked by and it was now only three more minutes until the market opened and Sena went public. Jasper had been invited onto the temporarily built stage.
The stage was right under the largest main screen in Nasdaq Exchange Center, which was at the center of the room.
Under everyone’s attentive gaze, Jasper and Jack got on stage.
In the middle of the stage was a large bell.
Since Nasdaq Exchange’s founding, every business that went public would have its legal personality ring this bell.
It was a tradition as much as it was a symbol.
The electronic screen continued to display worlds of welcome like ‘Nasdaq welcomes Sena’ while hundreds of traders had already gotten into position. There were a few dozen reporters holding their cameras, waiting to take a picture of this historical moment.
Jasper accepted a wooden hammer from a manager in the exchange center and was just about to invite Jack to ring the bell with him when he saw the other shake his head with a smile.
“You should ring the bell yourself, Mr. Laine,” Jack spoke.
Although he was stunned, Jasper saw the shine in Jack’s eyes and did not insist. “Alright then.”
Everyone looked up and focused on the electronic screen that covered the entire wall. It displayed both Nasdaq’s and Sena’s logo, as well as an analog clock.
The second hand of the clock ticked continuously until it was almost racing to 9:30 a.m.
