“Send out my instructions. Keep Jasper Laine’s personal information strictly confidential. No one is
allowed to disclose it!” John ordered.
He knew very well about Jasper’s current status and position. It would not be a good thing if such a
large customer was taken away. Furthermore, any leaked information would cause unnecessary
trouble for Jasper as well.
“Yes!”
Harold nodded, understanding what the president meant. He immediately went to carry out the order.
In the year 2000, at this specific timeframe, the business models of most domestic industries were still
at a very basic stage.
In this era when stock trading was still new, making billions of dollars in profits from the futures market
overnight was simply a myth.
Jasper knew that he could not hold back the news about him making money in the crude oil futures
market and that it would cause a sensation, but he did not expect this matter to cause pandemonium.
Online portals and physical newspapers immediately published the news that a mysterious retail
investor swept 3.1 billion in the international crude oil futures market overnight. The news exploded in
the faces of countless citizens!
Especially because this mysterious retail investor was a domestic citizen!
Everyone’s jaws dropped at this fact.
3.1 billion!
This was a number that made people feel dizzy even when they said it.
At the start of this millennium when someone with an annual income of more than 100,000 was
considered to be a rich person, ordinary folks dared not think of such a large number even in their
dreams.
Although all forces were trying their best to find out about this person, as a business that aimed to be
the first in the universe, Commercial Bank had solid moral integrity. The news was kept under lock and
no information about Jasper was leaked.
At present, the news and reports only garnered a quick glance from Jasper. He did not pay much
attention to them.
The excitement was over. Right now, Jasper needed to seize every opportunity to make money and
use it to arm and strengthen himself. After all, this country was filled with hidden talents and
undisclosed prodigies. In front of the real bosses, his capital was insufficient!
Now, he was still at the fundamental development stage.
He was more concerned about the two behemoths worth trillions coming up in the future.
The first was the company that really changed people’s lifestyles. This company had only been
established for less than a year, and Ma Yun was still leading his 18 associates to set up his 1688
website in an apartment. There were still three years to go before the establishment of that super
website, Taobao.
Although Tencent, another online social giant, had launched QQ and occupied the first position of
domestic social software, suffering from the inability to adapt to change, it was still facing difficulties
with server fees.
These two companies were definite targets for Jasper to invest in in the future, but the time had not
arrived as they were not facing hardships yet. If he entered the market at this point, the successful
businesses may not give up too many shares.
Therefore, he needed to bide his time. These two companies had a bright future, but before they
started to make profits, they would experience several crises and go on the verge of bankruptcy!
That would be the time when Jasper made his appearance.
According to Jasper’s memory, Alibaba’s difficulties were still a few months away, but Tencent was
almost at the brink right now. Within a month… That would be the best timing.
At this time, Jasper, who was nestling at home, recorded all these things and began to plan how to get
Tencent into his pocket.
Just after finishing the plan, Jasper’s cell phone rang. It was Wendy.
