The female reporter handed the phone to Jasper. Then, Jasper opened the video.
The title of the video was very short. [ML Jasper Laine Created Lane Automotive Factory].
However, the contents of the video were not that simple. The content of the Video was of the new car in the workshop just now.
“Who posted this?” Jasper lowered his voice.
Rowan came over and answered after looking closer. “From the angle of shooting, it should be from a worker in the workshop.”
Then, Jasper clicked to open the comment section.
Everyone was scolding him in the comments section.
[How shameless. How dare they plagiarize Homer’s latest car exterior!]
[I didn’t think that Lane Automotive would do this. I’ll be the first one to boycott Lane!]
The most conspicuous comments were posted by commercial accounts. Jasper clicked inside and realized that these accounts were all under Homer.
At this moment, Rowan realized that things had gotten out of hand.
“Mr. Laine, what should we do?” Rowan was troubled. This was the first time he encountered something like this, so he was a little lost.
“We didn’t maintain our secrecy properly regarding this matter. Also, that worker who filmed this has a certain degree of responsibility. However, we have to settle the debts with Homer for attacking us with their commercial accounts too.”
“Go and find out whether our car genuinely plagiarized Homer’s latest design.” Jasper rubbed his temples.
“I’ll get right on to it.”
Rowan found an excuse to chase the reporters away. Then, he went to talk to Beckett and the gang.
Soon, he found out the truth.
It seemed that Holden was the one who designed the exterior of the car and Holden held an important position in Homer before this. Furthermore, Holden was the one who came up with Homer’s latest design. Holden then came to work for Jasper…
After that, Rowan went to do some research about Homer’s latest car.
After comparing both designs, he realized that there were a lot of similarities in them but there were also a lot of differences. At most, it could only be regarded as referencing and not plagiarizing. Rowan told Jasper this after he investigated the matter.
“The exterior of the cars are not the same, right?” Jasper asked.
“No, Holden changed a lot of parts. He’s not stupid so he wouldn’t dare to come up with the exact same design,” Rowan answered.
“I think Homer is pissed that we stole Holden away from them, so they plan to use public opinion to suppress us. At the same time, they want to stop Lane Automotive while we’re at the early stages.”
“Tell Holden to contact the people from Homer and arrange a meeting for me to meet them,” Jasper said word by word.
“Alright, I’ll tell him now.”
Even though Holden left Homer, he still had the contact details of his superior. Soon, Holden contacted the higher-ups of Homer who agreed to meet Jasper immediately.
They set the time at 9 o’clock sharp that night.
The location was Lane Automotive Factory.
Afternoon passed quickly. At 8:30pm, Jasper went to the meeting room to wait. Around 9, the higher-ups from Homer came to the entrance of Lane Automotive Factory, after which they arrived at the meeting room under Rowan’s guidance. There were three people in their group.
One was Jax Longest, the regional head and the other two were his bodyguard and lawyer.
“Mr. Laine, I heard about you a long time ago. I didn’t expect to meet you this way today.” Jax sat down on the chair naturally and tossed his briefcase on the table.
“My name is Jax Longest. I hope we can cut the cr*p and get straight to the point.” After he sat down, Jax said directly.
“What do you want?”
Jasper could tell as well.
Jax was arrogant and he even brought his lawyer along, so it was clear that he came prepared.
