Sean enthusiastically lifted his glass and exclaimed, “Carl, you’re a genius!”
Carlisle clinked his glass with Sean’s and laughed. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Don’t give me too much credit. I just pieced this idea together from some online posts. Whether it’ll actually work, who knows.”
SchoolSpace initially failed due to a lack of investment. Later, it was acquired, and its school network was integrated into another social platform, thus forming SociableNet.
Over the next ten years, SociableNet’s value would soar to over six hundred billion. But unfortunately, it eventually fell into the hands of Electronic Arts.
Therefore, to ensure the longevity of their own project, they must create a product that could rival the prestige of Electronic Arts.
Running a business was like playing chess–when you made a move, you always had to think three steps
ahead.
Without a long–term business vision, any venture was bound to decline.
Despite lacking previous business experience, Carlisle excelled as a company marketer.
-Effective marketers must also possess sharp business intuition.
Francis and his comrades only managed to finish a bottle of beer before switching to non–alcoholic
beverages.
Meanwhile, Sarah and a group of classmates gathered for dinner in another corner of the restaurant.
The girls were visibly flushed from drinking.
With a slightly intoxicated tone, Sienna praised, “Sarah, you’re truly impressive! A loan company must be quite profitable. There are so many financially struggling students at our school!”
“Yeah, Sarah! You’re awesome! And you’re willing to share the wealth with us!”
“Sarah, you’re practically family to me now!”
Sarah’s classmates all chimed in, trying to flatter her.
Coming from modest backgrounds, they naturally didn’t want to miss out on this opportunity to make
money.
Moreover, Sarah had chosen them precisely because she knew about their financial struggles.
She believed that only those who were financially struggling would be easy to control and prioritize her needs.
She wasn’t keen on her team members questioning or arguing with her.
Since she decided to venture into entrepreneurship, she knew she needed absolute authority.
Sarah lifted her chin confidently and said, “Once my company is up and running, you guys will be the managers, and I’ll be the chairperson!”
In a low voice, Sienna asked, “Have you chosen a CEO?”
Sarah glanced at Sienna and replied, “Don’t be too ambitious. I’m reserving the CEO position for my cousin. She’s been a business manager at a big loan company for years. You don’t have the experience. If I gave you the CEO role, could you really make the company profitable?”
Sienna chuckled awkwardly and admitted, “Fair point…
Another classmate jumped in, asking, “Sarah, what if they don’t repay the loans?”
Sarah chuckled and replied, “My clients are college students. If they refuse to pay, they can kiss their graduation goodbye!”
Impressed, Sienna nodded and said, “That’s a clever strategy. Most students wouldn’t give up their
education for a loan.”
With a narrowed gaze, Sarah replied, “By keeping the interest rates high, we’ll put a lot of pressure on them to repay. I’ll have them all working part–time jobs to cover their debts. It’s like they’ll be working for
me.”
“You’re a genius, Sarah!” Sienna exclaimed, gazing at Sarah with admiration.
“I bet you’ll be making tons of money in college.”
Then, she joked, “I bet Carlisle regrets ignoring you now. He won’t even have a chance with you in the
future!”
Sarah scoffed, taking a sip of her wine.
“I want Carlisle to realize what kind of woman he gave up. He wasn’t good enough for me before, and he definitely won’t be in the future. He’ll only be worthy of admiring me from afar.”
After finishing their meal, Sarah and her friends went to the front desk to settle their bill.
Coincidentally, they bumped into Carlisle and his group descending from the other side.
Sean couldn’t help but gasp as he looked at Sarah, who seemed even more pretty now.
“Carl, is that stunning woman Sarah?”
