He had also lost before. He lost to a trader behind the scenes during the fight between Harbor Stocks and the Western capitalists.
The opponent’s advantage was too great and they got a decisive opportunity. If it had been someone else, they might only get a crushing defeat.
However, in Jasper’s view, all of those were not reasons for denying failure.
If you lost, you lost. It was fine to admit it.
On the contrary, this would only arouse his fighting spirit.
Old Master Law looked at Jasper deeply and said, “Jasper, don’t be too demanding of yourself.”
Jasper shook his head and smiled. “No, Old Master, I’m not being demanding with myself. I know very well that there are people better than me out there. It’s not shameful to lose once or twice.
“However, I need to get back this reputation whether it’s because of my position as a person of Somer descent or my personal point of view.”
Old Master Law frowned slightly and said nothing.
Jasper continued, “Old Master, you need to start from the present conditions, and your position and status as the elder generation are too sensitive. A slight move in one part may affect the situation as a whole, and it may become an international event, so you can’t rashly take action.
“But I’m different. If you throw me to the west, how many people will know who I am? I’m still young. This is my advantage and my protection. If I go to the western capital market to do something, no one will take me to the international level to deal with me.”
Old Master Law said with emotion, “However, you have to be clear that once you do it, us old people can’t help you directly because of many complicated reasons.”
Jasper smiled and said, “This is my own matter, why would I need help from others?”
These words sounded plain, but in fact, they were overbearing.
Even Zachary, who was silent next to him, looked at Jasper in surprise.
Ever since knowing Jasper, Zachary had to constantly refresh his inner evaluation of Jasper, but after improving it time and again, Zachary still found that favonovel.com had still been underestimating Jasper.
If Jasper’s life was not cut short, with this kind of aggressiveness, what would favonovel.com achieve in the future?
Zachary felt that favonovel.com did not dare to think about it.
Old Master Law was silent for a long time before asking, “What are you going to do?”
Jasper told favonovel.com the plan that favonovel.com had already reviewed countless times in his heart. He said, “What I’m doing now is to accumulate my own capital. The money I have right now is enough for me to live my life comfortably and it’ll be more than enough for generations to come. However, it’s still not enough to move Wall Street.
“So, I plan to accumulate more and when I have at least more than ten billion US dollars in cash on hand, then it’s time for me to start to carry out my plan to take down Wall Street. I’ll let them get a taste of having their riches ‘harvested’ by others in the market.”
Ten billion US dollars!
Was it a lot?
It was an astronomical number for most people.
However, in Jasper’s opinion, it was just a prerequisite for the execution of the plan.
Then, how big was his ambition?
Old Master Law looked at Jasper intently and could not help asking, “Do you really want to do this? Once you fail, you may get a crushing defeat and there will be no chance for you ever again.”
Jasper smiled and said, “For the sake of justice and self-interest, it must be done. Once I succeed, then it’ll be time for Jasper Laine to get a taste of being the richest man in Terra.”
