Okay, I saw the separate prompt but I don’t want to hijack it and this is the same author!anon from above still trying desperately not to write an actual fill, so can I just—
Wilson Fisk has his fingers in many pies. Owns stock in a whole bunch of different things, and not all of them are directly relevant to his plans for Hell’s Kitchen, or at least, they aren’t directly relevant right now. He prepares for the future, invests in things that might be useful later. It muddies the waters, if anyone starts looking at what he’s doing and searching for a pattern, and if things go wrong he’s got back up plans in spades. Wesley handled a lot of it, because Wesley was prepared for EVERYTHING. Except, you know, Karen Page, but that’s another story.
Long story short, he’s got stock in InGen. Quite a lot, actually. He wasn’t interested at first—dinosaurs on an island thousands of miles away mean nothing to him. He can appreciate the grandeur of the idea, of the science, but the only thing Wilson Fisk really cares about is Hell’s Kitchen.
But then someone from InGen comes sniffing around, looking for investors, they’ve got big things in the works, much more than amusement park attractions and cheap party tricks. Fisk listens, because some of those plans, some of those ideas, they’ve got potential. Living weapons, trained and deadly and loyal, without the moral quandries that men so often run into, now that has its appeal.
Which is how Wilson Fisk meets Vic Hoskins, and ends up funding InGen’s not-so-legal secret projects. (It doesn't end so well for Hoskins, but, well, he probably had it coming, and Fisk is a much more cautious man. He doesn't plan on making the same mistakes.)
