Life at The Top novel Chapter 609

Dawson believed Jasper. He really did, or he would not have issued a statement claiming that all his supermarkets would open an exclusive section for JW Electronics’ products before he saw the physical products themselves.

Not to mention that JW Electronics still did not have an operating license yet. It did not even have an official employee in charge.

However, Dawson was doubtful about this. According to the country’s citizens’ spending ability, a luxury item costing 2,000 bucks was hardly something most families could afford.

One had to know that the average citizen could not even make 2,000 bucks a month.

“This is only a sample. It’s so expensive because firstly, it’s imported. Secondly, it hasn’t been fully developed yet.

“I plan to take a trip to Coreana after this is over and buy their exclusive domestic license for this piece of technology. Then we can cut at least 70% of its size and increase its internal storage. As for pricing, well, we can cut it down by half.”

Hearing Jasper, Dawson replied, “That’s still too expensive.”

“We’ll only know about its actual cost when the time comes. But JW Electronics will only manufacture high-end products. We’ll leave whatever else to others.”

Seeing how Jasper seemed to have a perfect plan, Dawson did not dwell on the issue any longer. Putting down the ‘brick’ in his hands, he smiled. “The sky’s the limit. Don’t worry about anything else, you’ll have all of Schuler Group’s supermarkets as your strongest sales channel.”

Jasper nodded. Honestly speaking, Schuler Group had a terrifying sales ability. With that and the country’s top website with selling power, many problems had now solved themselves.

No matter how good the product, without a good sales channel, the product was pointless if no one bought it.

There was a well-known domestic mobile phone brand in his past life that had an operating cost of eight billion Somer Dollars, five million of which went to developing their sales channel. This spoke volumes about how important a sales channel was.

“How is it with the real estate company? Is the situation alright there?” Jasper asked.

Dawson replied calmly, “It’s just a waste of money. We have 24 projects in the entire province and we’re losing tens of millions from each of them every day. It’s not any better for the Hanks family, and the functional departments are still being difficult about it. I’ve already put pressure on them.

“So while it looks like we’re in trouble now, nothing much can happen for the time being. After all, our projects are following all the regulations, from design to building materials. They haven’t thought about messing around with the quality of our materials yet. All this trouble they’re giving us are just cheap tricks.”

Jasper nodded. “That’s good then.”

Just then, the landline in Dawson’s office rang.

Dawson picked up the phone, and the other person must have said something as Jasper saw Dawson scoff before replying, “What a large sacrifice. That plot of land in Flora City is worth no more than 30 million. Any more expensive means there won’t be a profit when construction begins later on. And they’re charging 40 million?

“They can have the piece of land if they want it. It’s just another plot of land to us, we don’t need it.”

Hanging up the phone, Dawson turned to Jasper angrily. “Sirius and the others have already begun to increase their pressure on us. As long as we’ve shown interest in a plot of land in the province, they would turn it into an auction open to everyone else.

“They’re obviously trying to steal this plot of land in Flora City from us even if it’ll result in a loss. There were two other plots where they made borderline losses just to steal them from us.”

Jasper was intrigued. “They’re trying to hurt us at the cost of their own capital? Just give it to them, then. As you said, we’ve got enough projects on hand as it is already. We only wanted these plots of land just so we could construct them when they appreciated. I don’t see why we can’t just give these to them if they want them so much.”
