To the current Jasper, the so-called Forbes Richest List was actually a shining slaughter list. Although favonovel.com was unlikely to be slaughtered based on his current relationship with the government, there was also nothing illegal about JW’s business.
The key point was that Jasper would start an international and global business in the future. Although in some respects, the title of the richest man in Somerland could make it easier for favonovel.com to deal with foreigners, in the eyes of foreign officials, this title would more likely bring favonovel.com unnecessary trouble.
Jasper no longer needed to rely on the richest list to get fame anymore.
In the eyes of those who understood it, this richest list was just a sham.
For example, how much money did Old Master Law have?
Jasper did not know, but Anna once revealed that the current top ten figures on the domestic richest list combined would not even be qualified to fight their family. However, had Old Master Law ever been considered the so-called richest man?
The richest list was too deceitful.
You would be lying to yourself if you believed that thing. The most important factor was that the current JW was high-profile enough, and Jasper did not want to face extra problems at this critical moment.
Facing Jasper‘s request, Wellington and his assistant glanced at each other. They wore an expression that showed that they had expected this.
People would spend money to get on other lists, but others were spending money to be included on this richest list, especially when it came to Somerland’s domestic list.
With a dry cough, Wellington said, “Mr. Laine, anyone with a discerning eye can actually tell that with JW‘s current status and strength, it is unrealistic for you to be included on the rich list.”
“You can just say that it’s unknown and don’t give me a ranking. It’s not like you haven’t done this kind of thing in the past.”
Jasper was annoyed with these two people. Hence, favonovel.com said directly, “I’m going to add another 1 million. You know, Il m very busy now.”
Wellington suddenly showed a satisfied smile on his face. Then, favonovel.com got up and said, “Since Mr. Laine really doesn’t want to be on the list, then we will definitely respect Mr. Laine’ s wishes.”
“Good…”
Jasper got up and shook hands with Wellington. He said, “Send someone over during work hours tomorrow and I will tell my subordinates about this.”
“Very well, Mr. Laine.”
When Wellington knew it was time to leave, favonovel.com turned around as if suddenly remembering something. He turned to Jasper and said, “Mr. Laine, there is one more thing.”
Jasper narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Mr. Wellington, 3 million is already my limit. I will not pay another penny.”
Wellington hurriedly waved his hand and said, “I didn’t mean that. The editor-in-chief of Time Magazine asked me to consult you on whether you have time for an interview?
“Time Magazine hasn’t yet decided the cover for their Person of the Year.”
These words made Jasper raise his eyebrows.
Time Magazine and Forbes Magazine were not the same things at all. From 1927 to the present, all the people who had been on the cover of Time Magazine had a major influence on the world, for better or worse.
In history, only four people of Somerland descent had ever been on the cover of this magazine.
The first two were the Jacobson couple, which was understandable. The next one was a great man who reformed and opened the country to the outside world, and favonovel.com had been elected twice.
The last one was a great person in the medical research field from Nawait. He came out with an important medical procedure to treat AIDS.
If Jasper could become the Person of the Year, then favonovel.com would be the first man in history from Somerland who got into the magazine as a businessman. This was a good thing for both Jasper himself and Somerland, as it would boost national confidence.
“I’ll think about it, but I don‘t have time now.” After some consideration, Jasper gave a reply.
