Damond shot a warning glare at Jasper before adding, “I won’t mind fighting an international lawsuit for two billion US dollars.”
“Don’t worry, President Golding.”
Jasper carefully tucked away his copy of the agreement and smiled as he said, “If you win, I won’t be a sore loser.”
“Hopefully.”
When Damond finished speaking, he stood and stared deep into Jasper’s eyes. ‘Such arrogance! You will pay for your words and actions. Your technology is so backward there’s no way you’ll be able to decipher and upgrade my technology within three months!’
“I’m looking forward to the day you wire two billion US dollars into my account.”
Then, Damond turned and left.
Jasper remained seated and waited until Damond had left for his office before standing up.
When he walked to the door and saw Julian, who was waiting for him, Jasper immediately took Julian to a nearby burger joint.
The food in Coreana was disgusting.
While they ate, Jasper shared what had happened during the meeting earlier like how one would share anecdotes.
Julian was a martial artist who was not sensitive to the mutual deception going on in the business industry. However, he was extremely displeased that Damond had looked down on his country.
“If I ever meet anyone like that, I’ll make sure they get firsthand experience of the beauty of Somerland’s martial arts!” Julian huffed.
Smiling, Jasper sipped on his tea and said, “It’s the same concept of them needing to drink seafood broth first thing in the morning while we drink tea instead. Everyone has their traditions and culture, but it doesn’t matter if you drink seafood broth or tea, you shouldn’t look down on anyone else.
“I have my ways of teaching such people a lesson so memorable they’ll shudder every time they hear the word ‘Somer’ in the future.
“It was a spur of the moment thing and didn’t mean much,” Jasper said calmly.
If today’s bet were made between anyone else in the world today, it would only end badly.
Damond Golding might be a despicable person, but he was so skilled in technology that he would still hold his position at the top of the industry even after ten years had passed.
However, Jasper had the advantage of being reincarnated, so he knew the first version of the MP3 player was filled with mistakes. All he needed to do was give it a few upgrades before he could market it as a completely new version.
Consumers were not idiots. They could discern if a product was good or bad.
Without taking anything else into account, he would surpass all the original MP3 players just by adding a screen that could show the name of the song and its lyrics.
When such a product was released to the market, Jasper was confident he would be able to cause whoever had taken his patent to become bankrupt.
As for Damond Golding, he would be shocked when he realized he had ended up worse off after trying to gain an advantage!
After they were done eating, Jasper arrived at Sentel Corporation when it was almost time for his meeting.
It was much easier than Jasper had expected to meet with the president of a corporation ranked annually within the top 100 of Fortune 500 companies.
“Mr. Laine, I know you’re a friend of Ms. Sylphie, but you’ll have to forgive me for only being able to give you an hour because of how busy I am.”
Emerson, who already had gray hair even though he was only 50 years old, spoke politely to Jasper as they sat in his spacious office.
Sylphie, who was Anna’s best friend, was also the third granddaughter of Sentel Corporation. Upon her referral, Emerson had taken time out of his day to meet Jasper even though he was extremely busy.
Jasper accepted Emerson’s invitation to sit down on the couch that was prepared for guests. He understood that the Ms. Sylphie he had just referred to must be the princess of Sentel Corporation.
“I won’t beat around the bush then, Mr. Lang. I’m here because I hope to purchase the half of the patent Sentel Corporation owns for MP3 players.”
