Chapter 717

“Mr. Malibu, you might’ve heard of the two dot-com industry companies of mine.

“One of them is called Sena, Somerland’s first web portal.

“The other is Terizone Inc. Its main product is KK, an instant messaging software that currently
dominates the most market shares within the country. It has no competitors.”

Mrs. Kelly suddenly gasped and interrupted Jasper.

“Terizone? Oh, their KK software is really nice. I have a KK number as well, their video calling function
is just too convenient. Didn’t you register for a KK account too, dearest? And you complained about
how their server only exists within Somerland, causing our video calls to lag all the time.

“I remember how you even emailed them and requested that they set up a server overseas as well.”

Malcolm flushed at Mrs. Kelly’s words.

She gave perfect assistance and Jasper could not help but smile.

“Thank you two for your suggestions. I’ll definitely bring it to Terizone’s managerial level and have them
pay better attention to this matter.”

Malcolm spoke awkwardly, “Let’s not talk about this one anymore. What about your other industries? If
your main business is the dot-com industry, then the development of your other companies in other
industries must be rather average then.”

“The media and entertainment industry? One of them is Advent Entertainment Group. It used to be the
best film company in Harbor City before I acquired it and more than 60% of Harbor City’s best actors
are currently signed under it.



“There’s one more that’s slightly weaker, but it’s still one of the leading companies in Somerland’s
media and entertainment industry. It’s called Easy Media.”

Malcolm’s features twitched, and he felt a little embarrassed.

He loved Jackson, so he was more or less aware of what went on in the media and entertainment
industry. There had been numerous Hollywood reports about the founding of Advent Entertainment
Group, so he knew about it.

He also knew that this Advent Entertainment Group had a very broad domain in Somerland.

As for Easy Media, while he did not know much about it, he could understand that it was to some
degree formidable through its relation to Advent Entertainment Group.

“As for real estate, I have JW Real Estates which I founded half a year ago. As of now, we’re about to
finish the Southface River Project in Nauritus City. Once the project is done, it’ll become the benchmark
model for renovation in the other cities of Somerland.

“There’s another project still in its planning stage and that’s the construction of the world’s first
skyscraper in Waterhoof City. It’s designed to reach a height of 650 meters and it’s been passed to
Morgan’s team in Gensler Design and Architecture Firm. The actual design sketch should be
completed soon and I’m estimating an investment of around 16 billion Somer Dollars.”

Malcolm’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Had he not done some digging on Jasper and found out that he was an exceptionally outstanding man,
Malcolm would have mistaken him for a madman or a conman.

After all, all the companies that Jasper listed held formidable positions in their respective industries.
These were companies that normal people might not even own after slaving their entire life away.



Yet Jasper claimed that they were all his properties.

‘Just how wealthy is Jasper?’

Malcolm could not believe that all this belonged to this young man in his 20s who was sitting in front of
him.

Jasper ignored Malcolm who was deep in thought and continued to speak.

“As for the electronics company, it’s the newest one and therefore the smallest. The company currently
has one product only.”

At that, Malcolm finally let out a sigh of relief.

‘Thank goodness. So it seems that there are still industries that Jasper can’t tackle. It’s only one
product and the smallest business among the rest. How formidable could it be?’

Malcolm thought that perhaps not all dignity was lost.

“It’s a product called Mellow, an improved version of the MP3 player. We have full patent ownership
over it and it’s currently the best-selling MP3 player within Somerland. I have plans to export Mellow
and sell it overseas, but I’m still contacting sales channels.”

Malcolm was utterly stunned by Jasper’s words.

‘I thought you said it was the smallest business?

‘I thought you said you only had one product?

‘Why are all of your products earth-shattering innovations?’

Malcolm flushed in embarrassment when he thought about how he had taunted Jasper earlier.



Jasper took in the change in Malcolm’s expression. He felt proud, but he made sure his expression was
one of exhaustion.

“These are all my current businesses, Mr. Malibu. You’re right, it’s not easy broadening my spectrum
and working in multiple industries. I’m exhausted and I need someone to help take some pressure off.”

Thank goodness that Malcolm was a foreigner who did not understand archaic Somerish, or he would
have immediately thought of the saying, ‘The mouth parts, and in its place is utter gibberish.’

Everyone around the world desired this kind of exhaustion yet not many people could achieve it.

Smiling frigidly, Malcolm suddenly wondered if he was qualified to be the CEO of such a company.

Malcolm’s heart thrummed wildly in his chest.

While he had worked as a senior executive for P&G, he was only in charge of one single business in
the group. JW Capital, on the other hand, was a multi-industrial group, and he did not know if he could
do a good job alone.

“You’re an outstanding enough man, Mr. Laine. I don’t think you need the help of others,” Malcolm
asked.

Jasper smiled. “There’s only so much one man can do, and there will always be things a person does
not know no matter how intelligent they are. There is no promise that someone will never make the
wrong choice in life.

“Every company in the world is backed up by a hardworking team. A company cannot be run by one
person alone, not even if he’s the founder.

“I need your intellect and experience to manage my company, Mr. Malibu.”



Jasper’s last sentence was extremely sincere.

Hesitation appeared on Malcolm’s features.

“Mr. Malibu, I promise that as long as you wish to take the position of COO in JW Capital, you’ll be paid
double of what P&G pays you now. And like the treatment given to the other senior executives, you’ll
also enjoy annual company dividends.”

Jasper gave his condition.

Malcolm waved his hand and smiled. “To be frank, Mr. Laine, I’ve saved quite a bit from working all
these years so I’m hoping to look for a more suitable platform for myself…”

“You will have the highest authority, and I promise that as long as you do not compromise the
company’s major interests, I will not interfere with your decision.” Jasper showed his hand.

Malcolm looked at Jasper in shock and exclaimed, “Mr. Laine, are you sure? You have to know that no
one’s ever given a professional manager so much authority before.”

“There’s a saying here in Somerland. To only hire the trustworthy, and to trust the hired. Plus…” Jasper
smiled. “Those people you talk about aren’t me.”

“Alright then! I’ll be the COO!” Malcolm shot up excitedly.
