"Mr. Gu, as we all know, the HT Group has never stepped foot into the food industry before. Furthermore, all of your existing industries have nothing to do with food. So why did you think it was a good idea to venture into this completely unknown territory?"
"When did this idea come into being?"
"Since you don't any experience with the food industry, don't you think it's too risky to make such a decision?"
"I'm sure that the HT Group would have made the necessary preparations. Can you tell us about the plans you made beforehand?"
"Mr. Gu, doesn't this decision imply that the current state of the other industries of the HT Group is nearing saturation?"
"The KING Group entered the food industry not long ago. Now, we have the HT Group joining them as well. Were their actions the reason for your decision, Mr. Gu?"
Every reporter there was eagerly asking questions nonstop. Although Jacob had expected that this press conference would definitely cause a widespread sensation, he still felt a bit irritated trying to answer all their questions. He had a somewhat displeased expression on his face. He looked toward Sam and his assistant immediately understood what he meant just by look of his eyes.
"Everyone, please calm down. Today's conference is o..."
Before he could finish his words, a loud, sharp voice came from the back of the crowd. "Just as one of my peers said, the KING Group recently entered the food industry. The HT Group soon followed. It seems like the HT Group and the KING Group enjoy ramming heads at each another. Doesn't that seem idiotic to you?"
As soon as that person finished her question, the room fell silent. Even a single camera shutter couldn't be heard. All the reporters turned around and looked at the woman who had asked such an audacious question.
They were completely stunned. The expressions on the reporters' faces were all over the place. Some were surprised, a few were disdainful, and some others admired her bravery. At that moment, almost everyone looked at her like she was a proud warrior of the past.
"Sorry, the press conference is over," Sam repeated and managed to settle everyone down just in the nick of time.
Even though he had acted decisively, even he was bewildered about what had just happened. It was the first time that he had seen someone dare to ask such a question in front of Jacob. The HT Group had a powerful grasp on this city. If someone offended Jacob and he wanted to get rid of that person, it would only take a snap of his fingers
you can see, I'm still standing strong. This building and the entirety of the KING Group are all mine.
All he has ever wanted to do was to destroy me, but I'm not going to idly sit back and watch him do so. It would be naive of him to think that he's the only one playing games here."
While Darren was speaking, he had a maniacal smile on his face. He nodded his head and continued, "Look at those people on the streets. They're just like ants from my point of view. I can guarantee you that it won't be long before Jacob will be walking on the streets like the ants below us. Today marks the beginning of his demise!"
'Poor Jacob, you don't even realize that I am the one in charge of this game. You'll soon find out where you really stand. People say that the KING Group is not as good as the HT Group. They all say that I am not as brilliant as you. But I'm not so sure if your group can even last long enough to entertain me. How long before you need to dig your nails into the ground just to hold on?
I sure do hope that you don't let me down!'
Darren thought while he returned to his desk with a menacing smile on his face.
"Mr. Xu, do you have any other plans? How about that reporter?" Harlan rushed to Darren's side and bowed his head down. The thought of what problems Jacob would face in the future thrilled Darren. He couldn't contain the excitement he felt in his blood.
He met Harlan's question with silence. However, a smile remained on his face.
Upon seeing this, Harlan was almost sure that the reporter had been planted at the press conference by Darren. If that was the case, Jacob's answer at the press conference was exactly what Darren had wanted.
