“Is it profitable?” Henry’s eyes sparkled as he asked.
Since Sena was listed on Nasdaq and Henry had earned a large sum of money with Jasper. This young master seemed to have gotten addicted to the idea of earning money.
He was now extremely intrigued by any situation that would potentially earn him money.
He had been nagging Jasper lately and asking him when he would fulfill his promise of bringing him along to earn another large sum.
However, it was not yet the right time for that, so Jasper did not disclose anything more to him.
After all, that was going to be a huge incident that would involve the entire world, and even change the way the world would continue to develop. Hence, Jasper was definitely not going to tell anyone about the incident until it truly happened.
“It is, but not by much. Still better than nothing, I guess. I’ll give you an account once it starts being profitable so you can transfer your funds to it. It’ll more or less pay off your airplane fuel costs.”
“I heard that your plane’s been docked at the airport ever since you bought it, right?”
Henry replied resentfully after he heard Jasper’s question, “I wish I could fly it too but it’s too f*cking expensive. Every flight costs at least a few hundred thousand Harbor Dollars and I even want to sell that f*cking thing now. It’s really not something I can afford to keep.”
“That’s why I told you to start your own business. I’m pretty sure your dad would give you money if you had your own start-up company. Then, I’ll help you plan it out. I can’t promise anything for the first year or so, but it shouldn’t be any problem to earn ten million or so. Furthermore, it’s a more long-term solution,” Jasper persuaded.
Henry yawned and replied lazily, “Another time, maybe. Let me play around and be free for another two years, I’m don’t have that kind of mindset now to think about entrepreneurship. You know how my temper is-no one can deal with me. Nor do I like that kind of angry aura businessmen have.”
With the end of the day came the circulation of what happened during the forum conference.
Of course, all normal civilians saw was what the newspapers reported, that some asset forum conference was held where entrepreneurs discussed the future development of some industries. The exciting debate over the dot-com industry’s future was also reported, ending harmoniously between hosts and guests.
This was obviously meant to deceive the common folk, and anyone even slightly more knowledgeable knew that something big had happened at the forum conference.
Jasper and Alban’s conflict as well as their subsequent bet had also become a public secret.
Countless eyes were focused on Alban’s Seatreasures Group and Jasper’s JW. They knew that a thrilling fight was about to occur between these two companies in Harbor Stocks over these next three days.
However, most people believed that Jasper had no chance of winning this fight.
Seatreasures Group was a physical and comprehensive group with a long-standing history in the mainlands. Its roots ran deep, and its main company was in the pharmaceutical industry that was difficult to enter and thus had few competitors.
It was almost impossible for outsiders to enter this greatly desirable industry since the costs for research and technical barriers were too high.
Not to mention that Seatreasures Group was a long-standing privately-owned pharmaceutical enterprise in the country, which made it very, very wealthy comp any.
Otherwise, it would not have had the strength to expand into other fields and industries.
Jasper, on the other hand…
Many people believed that he was just an ambitious but overzealous young wealthy businessman.
While he was much more impressive than ordinary folks, no one believed he would win against Alban.
Amidst the swirl of rumors, the sun rose as per usual. Jasper had been talking to Jake ever since he woke up.
“Do it like we used to before. Open a position at the bottom first. Don’t buy too much, and don’t act rashly. We don’t want to make any large movements.”
Jake hesitated when he heard Jasper’s instruction. “But Mr. Laine, it’s different this time. There’s just too many people who have their eyes on us!
“Seatreasures Group themselves will surely watch their own shares. There’s a limit to how many shares we can absorb if we don’t make a big move.”
Jasper smiled. “That’s exactly what I’m going for. I can only transfer you 1.2 billion this time, and most of this is from the profit we made in Harbor Stocks before. I don’t have any more for you.”
