Jasper’s first sentence had defined the future, and thus overturned everything the previous speakers had preached.
“The Internet is the future!”
No one could be certain of the Internet’s power in the future, so no one could step up and make the final call. All this required time and facts to prove.
Therefore, Jasper did not plan to persuade these people to believe him. He merely stated his line of loge.
“During the first industrial revolution, the steam engine’s appearance changed to world.”
“For the second industrial revolution, global capitalism erupted and humanity entered the era of electronics.”
“Now, the third industrial revolution will be a revolution of advanced technology, represented by computational atomic power and space biotechnology. This, is the era of information.”
“Every piece of technology I refer to today is closely related to our daily lives. It has the ability to change the way all of us live and even… Our understanding of the world.”
“The Internet can close the distance between people, making communication even easier and convenient.”
“With Sena, we can consume news and information from abroad much quicker, easier, and cheaper. If you click on Sena’s web portal, every important incident from around the world within the past 24hours will be clearly displayed before your eyes.”
“With Terizone, communication between you and your colleagues, family, and friends becomes much simpler. There’s no need to pay telephone bills at all, as you’ll be able to converse at a moments notice through texts or a network cable.”
“All of this will only become more convenient and quicker in the future. And before we’ve realized it, the new era will have already quietly arrived.”
“The people quickest to embrace the changing times will lead us down the path to the future, while those who choose not to improve will only be eliminated!”
Jasper’s words had put the entire room in an uproar. The topic of the Internet’s future was still a hot topic of discussion, but neither the people against it nor supporting it dared to come out and say anything with absolute certainty.
After all, everyone was terrified of being proven wrong, so they preferred to speak ambiguously, leaving them with room to backtrack.
Even so, Jasper’s words countered the mocking and disdainful speeches from the previous experts. No matter how you looked at it, Jasper’s speech was clearly a counterargument.
Alban’s expression was sour when favonovel.com saw how easily Jasper had gained control of the situation.
Alban glanced at a few helpers favonovel.com had employed advance to cue them in. Then, favonovel.com scoffed and closed his eyes slightly, no longer reacting to the situation.
The few helpers shared a look after they received Alban’s cue. One of them suddenly stood up.
“Nonsense!”
The word was spoken loudly, instantly shaking the venue.
This middle-aged man pointed at Jasper and scolded, “Don’t think that you can say whatever you want just because you got lucky and managed to make a small business for yourself. How old are you, huh? You’re just in your twenties, so who gave you the right to point
fingers and comment on the world? Every entrepreneur here has managed their business since before you were even born! ”
“Exactly! A young man like you should be humbler instead of trying so hard to curry favors and rise in social status. Take a look at yourself first, at least.”
“Haha. I knew that the Internet was just a con industry. It’s not a serious industry at all! Look at him, this is supposed to be the so-called number one figure in the country’s Internet Industry. He’s just in his f*cking twenties-even my son is older than him. What does favonovel.com know about commerce?”
