The opening ceremony of an asset forum conference was about to begin.

This was the year 2001, and ridiculous high-end events had yet to become as common as they would be more than a decade later.

The asset forum, for example, was a concept they had taken from the West. Most people initially did not know what such an event entailed.

Basically, this was an event where a group of successful entrepreneurs would sit down with a few fake economic experts as they proceeded to predict and discuss their hopes for the country’s financial situation or the industry’s developments.

If the people attending were not powerful enough, then the forum became a joke.

However, this asset forum conference in Waterhoof City was held by Seatreasures International Group, and the person invited was a renowned financial expert in the country. Large companies in Waterhoof City’s financial industry were also present.

The most well-known attendee would be the vice president of Haddock’s Chamber.

Everyone knew that the symbol of Teo Chamber of Commerce was Seatreasures International Group, which was worth tens of billions on the market. The Teo and Haddock Chambers of Commerce also had many conflicts and they were at great odds with each other.
