Life at The Top novel Chapter 120

“Jasper, I heard you started an investment company in Mainland?“

After Old Master Law had gone upstairs to have a rest, Zachary took Jasper for a walk in the backyard and asked the latter casually.

Jasper was not surprised that Zachary knew about this.

After all, investigating his background would be an effortless task for the Law family and their capabilities.

“My capabilities are limited and I can’t perform specific tasks, so I can only provide the money and let the professionals do what the professionals do best,” Jasper smiled and said.

Zachary laughed and then said, “The lower-class work using effort, the middle-class work using talent, and the upper-class work using people.”

Jasper chuckled and said, “In fact, in my opinion, this is a golden age, especially in Mainland where opportunities are everywhere. Start a little earlier and you may have some preemptive opportunities in the future.”

Zachary nodded and said, “Your investment company has invested in an internet company called Terizone Inc.. You seem to be very optimistic about the internet industry?”

Jasper nodded. “The internet is the general trend of the future. This is what the generation has chosen.”

Zachary did not comment on that.

Jasper knew very well that all the rich and powerful in Harbor City of today were still sticking to traditional industries apart from a few others.

It was not that traditional industries did not make money, but these people had become accustomed to cultivating deeply in the field they were good at.

They did not understand the internet, nor were they optimistic about it.

The issue of the rich having limited vision was not exclusive to Harbor City. It was the same in many places.

“The present performance of the internet companies in the stock market indeed makes people green with envy,” Zachary said.

“The Law family also has some investments in Harbor City’s stocks, but the current turmoil in Harbor City’s stocks has been treacherous and the market is a bit unpredictable. Several recent investments have failed, and comments against the Law family from the outside world are uproarious, which is very troublesome.”

Jasper immediately recalled something about the Law family from the memory of his previous life.

In his previous life, the Law family at this time had suffered a loss of nine billion as well and had been looking for opportunities to earn back what they had lost.

However, matters in the financial world could never be done in a hurry.

The Law family had made several investments. Although there were gains and losses and still a slight profit overall, it was not worth mentioning when compared to their investments and the risks taken.

For example, if one earned 10,000 from spending a million while risking the possible loss of half a million, should one really think that such an investment was successful?

It was without a doubt, a failure.

That was because the cost and risks were too high and not worth the profits.

Furthermore, according to the timeline, the Law family should have bought Hansel Index by now.

This was the Law family’s last financial investment because they had lost 800 million at once in this investment.

Three years later, under Harbor City’s rooftops, there would be many bodies of those who jumped off buildings due to their bankruptcy.

“What do you mean? Do you think it’ll rise above 18,000 points?” Zachary asked in astonishment.

Jasper nodded and said, “It’s now the last carnival of the capital and the amount involved has reached trillions of dollars!

“Besides, the stock market of both Harbor City and the United States are closely intertwined. Several of the major financial giants have poured in nearly one trillion dollars in funds with the prosperity of the internet economy, and good news will continue to come.”

Zachary frowned deeply. He paced a few steps at where he was before looking at Jasper seriously, asking, “What would you do if it were you?”

“Accept all the losses, then take out as much cash as possible to buy it all up!”

Jasper raised his head and looked at Zachary. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, making him look confident and crazed.

“The Hansel Index will definitely surpass 18,000 points!”

Although he was mentally prepared, Zachary still found it a little outrageous in the face of Jasper’s confidence.

“With this back and forth, there’s at least a billion-level gap. Are you confident that it will be as you think?”

Zachary asked seriously.

Jasper tapped his finger on the tabletop lightly and said indifferently, “Mr. Law, if you believe in me, just do as I say. If you don’t, it’s useless no matter how much I say!”
