Chapter 507
There was a thunderous round of applause after Sheldon finished speaking.
He encouraged and supported university students to start their own businesses.
At the same time, the students could hear what he was saying between the lines.
The age of the Internet was imminent.
After Sheldon finished his speech, he spoke to Sean for a while more.
He encouraged Sean to be bold and told him to go to the city council building to see him if he had any difficulties he couldn't resolve.
Sean could not tell if Sheldon meant it or was just being polite, so he just nodded vigorously and thanked him.
Sheldon looked at the audience, and his gaze rested shortly on Carlisle, who was in the back row. He smiled and said, "It's getting late. I won't disrupt your press conference any further, Mr. Woodsen."
Sean hurriedly said, "It's not an interruption at all! Having you here is a great honor, Mr. Darnell!'
Gareth said, "Mr. Darnell has a busy schedule, and he postponed a few investment recruitment events to come to your press conference. He'll be moving on now."
Sean blushed in embarrassment. "I'll send Mr. Darnell off."
Sheldon raised a hand to stop him. He smiled and said, "It's alright. Carry on with your work!"
Then, he went off with his entourage.
After watching Sheldon leave, Sean picked up the microphone again and said, "Firstly, Mr. Darnell isn't an accomplice I hired to collude with me, and I don't have the authority to invite him. After he got to know about our product, he gave us high praise, and we were determined not to disappoint him.
"Our team will do our best to make this product well so that all our users will have a good experience. Now, I will speak about the reward system for bringing in new users. It will be implemented once the Alumni Network is launched."
Back at Genius Apartment, Sarah threw an empty wine bottle onto the floor with an almighty crash.
She was furious!
She had paid almost 20 thousand dollars for those people, and they hadn't managed to mess
up the press conference at all.
Sheldon had gone to support Alumni Network personally!
What had Carlisle done to deserve it?
Sienna and the others were trembling with fright.
Ruby was smiling slightly. "Sarah, if you want to make money, you've got to be practical and put in the work. There's no use in playing these little tricks!"
Sarah was burning with anger and said coldly, "You should say this to Austin and your father. Ask them if they use such strategies to oppress their business rivals when they work!"
Ruby was full of confidence as she said, "Dad doesn't lack money. He earns his money fair and square, and he does charity when he can! He would never stoop to using these despicable tricks!"
Sarah snorted. "Ruby, you've changed."
Ruby was startled. "What do you mean by that?"
Sarah said calmly, "You know exactly what you used to do in school. Don't you feel any shame at all when you call something despicable?"
Ruby was startled once more.
After being transferred to another class, she hadn't bullied any of her classmates at all.
She really did seem to have undergone a huge transformation.
After a moment's silence, Ruby murmured softly, "Perhaps this is what it means to become mature."
After that, she stood up to leave. "I'm going home. I'd also like to remind you that you and Carlisle are on totally different levels. If you keep trying to go against him, you're just going to end up destroying yourself!"
Carlisle was an entrepreneur, but he offered high salaries to employ talented, educated, and highly skilled people.
Conversely, Sarah's company was mass hiring without any requirements for education.
Carlisle's company could openly hold a press conference and had even attracted the support of Sheldon, whereas Sarah's company could not even hold an opening ceremony. They were like rats skulking in the gutter.
Carlisle's business trajectory seemed to be progressing under the guidance of an expert, whereas Sarah was just working blindly like a headless chicken.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
There was a world of difference between the two of them.
Sarah thought of Carlisle as her rival, but Carlisle wouldn't even look twice at her.
After Ruby had left, Sarah sat on the sofa in a daze.
Sienna took her hand and said comfortingly, "Sarah, don't let Ruby affect your mood. You didn't want Carlisle, and she actually likes him. How smart can she possibly be?"
Sarah closed her eyes and smiled bitterly. "Enna, do you still think that Carlisle sucks?"
Sienna was startled. She pressed her lips together and said, "I'll always stand on your side!"
She had made her stance clear. No matter how accomplished Carlisle was, Sienna would think poorly of him if Sarah did not like him.
