Life at the Top

Chapter 65

“There’s nothing I need to hide from you,” Jasper chuckled.

Wendy felt that Jasper was being beyond shameless with his words.

However, thinking about it, it was the truth.

If one owned a few million dollars, some people may come up with certain intentions and do something irrational.

However, in the face of a wealthy man that had a net worth of a billion dollars, who would dare to do anything to him?

……

One week later, Jasper moved from the town to Thorton Park in the city.

The house was already well-renovated and designed, so Jasper could move in any time. However, Jasper had contacted the renovation team and asked them to carry out the renovation of two other villas within the same week.

These two villas would be used as the temporary workspace of JW Captial.

The computers, printers, and network office supplies had to be prepared and set up as well.

The company only consisted of three employees, Jasper included, as of now. Meanwhile, he had handed the management of the company’s finances to Wendy as he did not trust anyone else for this except her.

On this day, Jack Tanner came to the city as agreed.

Jasper went to greet him personally. Jack had thoroughly made up his mind this time around. He had brought his wife and daughter along with him.

“This villa is our temporary office space. On the other hand, your family can stay in the villa next door. You can choose any room you want.”

Jasper said this as he handed the key of the villa over to Jack.

Jack did not have much to say about that. He directly asked, “What is my job scope?”

“You are the general manager of JW Capital. The company still hasn’t taken on any professional tasks yet, but there’ll be work soon. By then, the operation of the entire company will be entrusted to you.”

Jasper had formed a plan early on. If a management prodigy like Jack Tanner was not put to good use, it would literally be a waste of a gift bestowed by God.

Jack followed Jasper into the villa. Looking at the empty space and new office equipment, he chuckled. “This feels like a start-up company,” he remarked.

“We are a start-up company!”

Jasper laughed. “The only thing that’s different is we don’t need to accumulate our raw capital. I have the money. We can just acquire other companies,” he said.

“Have you found an acquisition target, Mr. Laine?” Jack asked.

Jasper laughed lightly. “Yes, and I’ve ordered two plane tickets to Cavern City for the both of us,” he said.

“Cavern City!”

Jack frowned and thought about it for a while. He shook his head and said, “There are too many internet companies in Cavern City. May I know which company you have targeted, Mr. Laine?”

“Terizone Inc.,” Jasper answered straight away. He clicked into a software program on the computer and said, “This instant messaging software currently has the largest number of users within the country, and the number of new users is increasing daily. As of now, it has more than 5 million users.

“This small icon will grow to become something that nobody could have ever imagined.”

Hearing Jasper evaluate Terizone so highly, Jack grew serious about it as well.

“I’ve heard of it before. Weresoft has its own instant messaging software as well. It’s called MSN. You know about it right, Mr. Laine? According to our internal evaluation, Terizone is Weresoft’s biggest rival in the country.

“However, all Internet products, Terizone included, have not found a way to make a profit. They are making a loss every day.”

Jasper chuckled. “This will only be temporary. I want to let everyone know that it’s possible to profit by selling internet products. We’ll make a fortune!”

Jasper and Jack’s flight would depart in the afternoon. After Jack familiarized himself with their surroundings and helped his family settle down, the both of them headed straight to the airport.

Wendy did not follow along this time. She had to remain in the country to hire some clerks.

Alas, it was impossible for only three people to work in such a large villa. Tasks like photocopying materials and picking up calls would have to be delegated to other people.

Just as Jasper and Jack got onto the plane, Weresoft released news about Jack leaving the company on their official webpage. The domestic circle of professional managers was thrown into an uproar. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

It was not wise to overlook Jack Tanner’s appeal and charisma in this era.

As someone from a ethnic minority group, he was able to get a high-level executive position in Weresoft and even received numerous praises from the world’s richest man, Mr. Gates. Jack was definitely the best in the country in terms of his work abilities and performance in the finance industry.
