Life at The Top novel Chapter 1085

Dudley was extremely pissed by Alban’s warning, but he 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 he 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 he started speaking, applause rang out again below the stage.

“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 him falling to his demise!”

Perry’s words instantly caused quite an uproar within the audience.
