Jasper frowned at Hudson’s words.According to what he remembered, Sena should currently be in a critical period of preparation for listing.Sena had indeed developed a communication software, and they had indeed caused a great amount of trouble for Terizone.Yet that was something that happened in 2004.The butterfly’s wings had begun to flutter, yet Sena was now entering the communications industry two whole years before it should have. Not to mention that they were developing it by themselves.Sena was currently in full swing and would turn into one of the country’s top three networking sites along with Netsy and Soha.The most important concept for internet users right now was that of web portals. Since its main function now was to read up on the latest news, it was far less complex than it would be in later years.Terizone and Sena were of completely different sizes right now. All it took was one small move from Sena and Terizone would lose one line of defense.Which was w
Jasper was woken up by Hudson’s phone call at six o’clock in the morning.“We’ve just gotten wind that Sena’s beta communication software, Sena Chat, will be officially released tomorrow morning.”Hudson's tone was anxious, for the release of Sena Chat would definitely deal a fatal blow to Terizone right now!“I’ll be right over!”Hanging up the phone, Jasper booked a ticket and rushed to Cavern City as fast as he could.Meanwhile, Sena Chat was officially released on the market.Sena's sudden launch of the software, Sena Chat, had resulted in a frenzy within the domestic internet circle.Disregarding its portal sites and its gaming aspect, instant messaging had the most users in the internet industry within the country right now, for it was also the easiest to draw users in at alarming rates.It was just that this form of business did not have overwhelming web portals like Sena and Soha.KK might have the most users within the country, but no one seemed to be taking Terizone
Sena was evidently at a greater advantage than Terizone right now.Not to mention that the other party was still one of the three major domestic web portals. Once they did everything they could to push their chatting software into the market, it would be an easy feat to gather more users.All they had to do was advertise it on their web portal.Therefore, merely giving Hudson and the rest ideas was not enough.What Terizone needed the most now was users. The purpose of the new features was only to increase their attractiveness and customer stickiness. However, it could also easily be plagiarized by their competitors.What Terizone needed the most now was to pull in a large wave of users in the shortest amount of time.Jasper already had a plan to carry that out, but he had to be the one to do it personally.If he succeeded, it would function as a figurative thruster for the carriage Terizone was, and it was something Hudson and the rest could not do now.That night, Terizone’s
“If one billion isn’t enough, then two billion, three billion!“There is not a single person in the domestic internet industry who has more money than me.”While Jasper's ‘two billion’ and ‘three billion’ were mostly exaggerations, newfound confidence had grown in the five’s hearts with Jasper's words.Hudson waved his hand. “Everyone heard what Mr. Laine said, right? Stop hesitating and get to work!”“Alright. Cameron, Logan, and I will take charge of building the webpage’s content as fast as we can, while Zaine and Daniel, you two endure a little more and finalize the new features we made last night. We’ll upload the updated software before noon today!”…After a while of busying and under the expectant gazes of everyone, Hudson released the newest version of KK at 12 o’clock sharp!This update had caused an uproar within the market!It now seemed to everyone that Terizone was long prepared for Sena’s aggressive attack, for they managed to upload a new version of KK the next
“This Jack, I’ve had people contact him before and offer him a high pay so that he could work for Sena, but he rejected the offer without a thought.”Dane pushed himself from the table with two hands and stood. There was a treacherous glint in his eyes.“I was fine with that since he was working happily at Weresoft and there’s no way Sena could compete with Weresoft. But then he moved to work for JW Capital and managed to bring the company instant success. There’s something that doesn’t seem right here.”The person in charge of Sena’s business department replied, “I’ve dug a little into this JW Capital before. All I know is that its legal personality and its shareholder goes by the name Jasper Laine. That’s all I have. The company’s investment with Terizone should be their first investment.”“It’s their first investment and they’ve helped Terizone counterattack us. There’s more to this JW Capital that meets the eye.” Dane scoffed.“That makes more sense, then.” James smiled bitter
…When he saw Dawson again, it was when his future father-in-law was the most high-spirited.Jasper was not clear about the fight with the Hanks, but when he saw Dawson in high spirits, it was evident that the outcome was ideal.“The head of the Hanks family has stepped down,” Dawson said directly after Jasper sat down.“That bad?” Jasper asked in surprise.After all, the Hanks was one of the influential big families in the province. The failure of the scheme last time almost caused the head of the Hanks family to fall from his position of prestige.“The most important thing is that Zayden is the son of the head of the family. The father and son were pushed out by the Hanks to ease my anger.”Dawson’s face was gloomy. “Although another person is the head now, the Hanks will still be the Hanks. This time, they’ve lost billions and their reputation. They won’t do anything for now, but they won’t let this go after suffering a loss.”“Different situations call for different actions
“How’s the location of the land?” Jasper asked with one raised eyebrow.Dawson quickly asked someone to fetch a map of the capital of the province.After opening the map, Dawson pointed at a small area on the map and said, “It’s a total of 16 acres, so it’s not small.“The location belongs to the plot of the Southface River. However, the only problem is that it has slightly strayed from the intended line and is part of the surrounding of the city center now. The traffic and facilities might be a little worse.”Jasper’s eyes were glued on the map while listening to what Dawson said.Then, a glint flashed across his eyes.He was so familiar with this place.The most popular high-end residential area in the province would be built here five years later.The geographical location was not a problem at all because years later, the province would build the subway and enlarge the city center.In those two projects, this area would be included as the core area.The Southface River wou
Dawson chuckled wryly and said, “300 million.”“That’s insane!” Jasper did not know whether to laugh or cry.“According to the market price right now, the residential area in the province will be about 3,000 dollars per square foot. A 16-acre land won’t even be 11,000 square meters, so 34 million should be enough and they’re asking for ten times the price?”“Also the land development rights to develop the south bank of Southface River as a whole.”What Dawson said was shocking.Jasper lifted his eyebrow violently, and one word appeared in his heart immediately. ‘Buy!’There were a lot of barren hills on the north bank of the Southface River, so it was not suitable for commercial development. In comparison, the commercial value of the south bank would be much higher.This piece of land was located at the south bank of the Southface River, and the entire river cut across the province. Not only would there be universities in the future, but there would also even be affiliated high
