Chapter 159 He’s Going Against Her
“Next, I would like to invite the last competitor for today, Mr. Webster, the president of the Webster Group, to the stage.”
The host said.
The crowd looked at Nathaniel one after another.
Anyone could tell that the winner today would be either the Longfellow Group or the Webster Group.
Janet’s explanation had been very detailed just now, so Nathaniel couldn’t win unless he had a very unique understanding and innovative
method.
This competition was going to be interesting.
Nathaniel stepped on the stage calmly.
When he walked past Janet who had stepped off the stage, he stopped and looked sideways, saying in a low voice, “The narration just now was very good. Janet, you have indeed exceeded my expectations.”
Janet smiled proudly. “As I said, I won’t lose.”
Nathaniel didn’t say much and started his speech on the stage.
The content of the two statements was similar, but Nathaniel’s was more direct, and he displayed the way to promote this APP.
“The Webster Group has the most powerful publicity team. We operate and independently developed the applications of social media. Our
technology is mature.”
Nathaniel looked at Janet below the stage and said slowly. “If you choose the Webster Group, I can guarantee that this APP will be popular all over the country, and we will bring it to the international market within three months.”
Everyone present knew how valuable this promise was.
The goal he had set had never failed.
Below the stage, Nigel poked Janet. *Jill the Webster Group’s reputation is really good. To be honest, it is not me who wants to beat you down. An experienced company will be easier to get this.”
Janet smiled indifferently, her face full of confidence.
“I expected him to say that but who said that those with experience can do the best? Most of the time, experience is a hindrance to
innovation!”
Nigel, who originally admired Janet, only felt that Janet was even cooler now.
‘Jill, you’re right. Everything is still up in the air. Don’t worry. No matter what, I will support you!” Nigel looked at her seriously.
Janet clicked her tongue.
After a while, she raised her eyebrows. “Don’t be partial to me. As a friend, I hope that the APP you worked hard to develop can go to the
world.”
“Don’t worry. I am also a businessman, not a philanthropist.”
In order to make her feel less burdened, Nigel said this on purpose.
His principle was that Janet was more important than everything else.
After Nathaniel finished his explanation, he walked down the stage slowly. When he passed by Janet, he glanced at her.
However, she, who was talking to Nigel, didn’t raise her head at all.
Nathaniel’s eyes became a little gloomy.
He felt that Nigel, who was beside her, was so annoying. At this moment, he somehow hoped that they were not in a competitive relationship.
He even suddenly remembered how they used to be.
When he returned to his seat, Anastasia immediately grabbed his arm, her face full of excitement.
“Nathaniel, you are so awesome! You looked so handsome on the stage just now. How could Janet compete with you?”
“Don’t talk about Janet like this anymore. She is not bad.” Nathaniel pulled out his arm with a frown.
His defense of Janet made Anastasia freeze.
She was so angry.
As Nathaniel finished his speech, all the representatives of the companies participating in the competition had finished their speeches.
Next was the bid process.
The companies participating in the competition would announce their prices at the same time. If everyone’s price did not meet the organizers‘ expectations, then the competition would end. The APP would not be sold again.
If the prices were different, then the second round would begin. Starting from the first person, the bid would start again. If they did not bid, then it would be considered waiving. It would be extended to the next person to bid. They would take turns to bid until the success of the highest–price offer.
Janet gave a starting price that was neither high nor low. It was 500 thousand dollars.
In addition to Nathaniel the other two bids were 450 thousand dollars and 510 thousand dollars. It was exactly what she had expected.
When it was time to announce Nathaniel’s bid, the screen lit up, and the number shocked everyone.
1.3 million dollars!
It was 1.3 million dollars!
Even though this was software designed by Nigel it hadn’t been tested in the market yet, and 1.3 million dollars was a considerable sum.
