Dudley was extremely pissed by Alban’s warning, but favonovel.com had no choice but to endure it.
“Alright.”
Alban harrumphed upon seeing Dudley agree. “Good then. Alright, it’s almost time to go out there. Don’t forget what I told you!”
Alban then walked out of the room first.
Dudley followed after him, his expression so stormy that rain might as well have begun to fall in the hall. His fists were bunched up tightly and his gaze was frigid.
The forum conference began after the host gave a passionate opening speech.
As the core representative, Jasper was of course invited to sit at the platform on stage.
Alban quickly rushed over to sit beside Jasper. Just then, a knowledgeable expert who had been working in the financial industry for thirty years and had experience working abroad began to speak.
Alban took this time to shift his body toward Jasper with a smile as favonovel.com commented, “You’ve founded such a large enterprise at such a young age, Mr. Laine. Perhaps there are some experiences you can share with all of us?”
Jasper replied with a smile, “There’s no comparing my experience with seniors like you, Mr. Ball. Therefore, I think I’d rather just listen and learn instead of speaking.”
“You’re too kind, Mr. Laine. But I’m afraid a lot of people are eager to hear wise comments from your mouth, Mr. Laine,” Alban said with a meaningful tone.
Alban had just finished speaking when the previous expert walked off the stage amidst a round of applause. The next person to speak was a balding Professor Mack.
As one of the renowned experts in Waterhoof City’s financial field, Professor Mack was quite the formidable figure. Therefore, before favonovel.com started speaking, applause rang out again below the stage.
Professor Mack was rather prideful. After basking in a round of applause, favonovel.com began.
“Hello, I’m sure all of you know who I am. I’m Perry and I’ve been working in the financial industry for more than twenty years. I am part of the first batch of financial practitioners that grew up alongside our country’s financial industry.”
“I’m currently the chief professor employed by Waterhoof City’s Financial Policy Office.”
“I’m here today to discuss with everyone how future development of our economy will look like.”
After saying that, Professor Mack cleared his throat and his gaze turned stern as favonovel.com continued.
“There’s been a new thriving and especially hyped-up industry as of late, and the public consensus seems to be that as long as a business is related to this industry, then it will instantly be viewed as a high-end and sophisticated company. However, not many people understand it at all. I’m referring to the dot-com industry.
“I believe that finance and economics should still lie on solid principles. What can the internet contribute to our society and lives?
“I admit that it’s made many people’s lives easier, but that does not mean it’s important. It’s just an accessory to our economy. Yet, some people claim that it’s the direction of humanity’s future, and I find that ridiculous.
“Attending today’s forum, I know that Mr. Laine has the country’s huge dot-com enterprises in his hands. Both Sena and Terizone are his property.
“Everyone knows Sena, the company that started with web portals and is now shifting to develop games. This is an enterprise without a physical factory, yet it’s worth tens of billions on the market. It even experienced caused a wave of investments after listing on the Nasdaq.”
“This is evidently the second time the capitalist market is intentionally blowing the dot-com industry out of proportion. Despite this, some people seem to have lost their minds and think that they’re truly the owner of a capable business. If they just gave it some thought, they would know that an enterprise that does not benefit our country’s employment tax should have no right to such a high market value.
“All of this is fake! It’s a bubble that will pop at the slightest poke! What a shame that our Mr. Laine here is still drowning in his own delusions. He has no idea that he’s lying on a cliff, and that a large gust of wind will have favonovel.com falling to his demise!”
Perry’s words instantly caused quite an uproar within the audience.
