Boss wants a search to be changed on Google?

[Oyeve]

So, My boss has asked me if we can manipulate a search on google. IE, someone search abc company but the first hit is not the hit we want, it goes to abc company that we bought. Is this possible?

Assuming you fully own and control the company in question, the easiest thing to do is to shut down their website and replace it with a 301 "permanent redirect" to your own website.

Google will follow the 301 accordingly, and recompute their rankings based on that.
