Chapter 340 Busy Holiday 4


Chapter 340 Busy Holiday 4

Jake was uncomfortable seeing Matthew fighting this much with Joseph, he hoped that meeting his best friend would be more enjoyable after so many months, but it turned out to be that way.

Oliver seemed more used to it and seemed quiet and agreed with everything Matthew said, seeing that Jake was uncomfortable he guided Jake discreetly into another room so that Jake wouldn't be in the middle of this fight.

"Sorry you had to see this Jake, my dad has long been very unhappy with Joseph whenever they might end up arguing like that."

"Alright, you're in the family and it's normal for everyone to fight, I shouldn't be here, next time I'll warn you before you show up."

"Don't say that Jake, you know we consider ourselves to be part of our family, that's why my dad fought Joseph even though you were around."

"Don't worry about how Joseph treated you, he's angry because my father made him come here on this vacation, it seems that Joseph is in a rebellious phase and is doing everything wrong, only his studies that are fine can calm me and my dad."

"This rebellious phase of his started when he met Liza and that's why my dad thinks she's guilty of everything, the truth is that we're very disappointed with Joseph."

Oliver didn't say anything, but they were so disappointed in Joseph because they had only Jake as a comparison of a young man of the same age, to all Jake seemed like a perfect young man who was talented, responsible, stayed with his family and still good at school.

Compared to Jake who was all right, Joseph's mistakes seemed far more serious than they normally would be, but even so, Oliver told Jake not to feel responsible, because it really wasn't his fault.

Jake was just disappointed because Joseph looked like he didn't care about him anymore, for someone like Jake who had few friends and always valued relationships he didn't expect Joseph whom he considered as a best friend didn't care about him.

After a while, Joseph had gone to his room and Matthew called Jake and Oliver to talk, Matthew still looked agitated and didn't look like someone older having so much energy to fight with Joseph.

"Sorry for making you see this Jake, I fought with Joseph around you because I consider you part of my family, Joseph has to improve a lot to have the ability to take over my business someday."

"I understand, you have your reasons for being mad at Joseph, I came here today to talk about what has happened to the company in the months I was at university."

"The company has been doing very well, as you know in February of this year we started selling the new camera we have been developing for many years ago."

"Even though only a few months have passed since the start of sales, it seems that sales have been a success, many who knew our company expected a quality camera and were impressed by how our camera is superior to others in the competition."

"Anyone who didn't know our company is getting it right now because of this camera, some even said that if we sold this camera in Asia we could have great sales because they know good quality products."

"I don't think that's a good idea, not good for a company that is still developing as ours wants to compete with the biggest companies in Asia, we better just keep trying to sell from Europe and America and spread the brand and name of the company with this product."

Matthew agreed with Jake and didn't want to challenge the best companies in the market yet, not to mention that they wouldn't make so much money from having difficulty getting distributors and partners to sell cameras and still making a profit.

"I agree with you, in these months we have also begun to prepare the development of our next digital camera on the market for a few years from now, with their councils we have already started the development and improvement of technologies."

"Very well, as I said to you, it may be that the next camera of ours that should be ready in 1999 will be one of the last ones we will do before mobile phones become better known, then we will have to cut production costs a lot to keep selling and profiting."

"Yes, I believe you, even though we don't see any evidence of this happening we are preparing to reduce costs as much as we can, with our company getting better known we are getting great deals with suppliers."

Matthew was someone with a vision and could see that cell phones were getting more and more popular in recent months, he could also see that the internet was getting popular too, so he could imagine that if a cell phone had internet and a camera it would sell much more than that his company's cameras.

That's because Jake didn't say that this phone would also have something more advanced than a Walkman, that should be hard to imagine today, but Jake was developing touchscreen and multi-touch to have a patent and then would develop the Android system.

Just as Jake himself was preparing the technology that would make it all possible, Matthew even suggested that they create this modern phone themselves, but Jake knew that the costs to make it happen would be tens of billions of dollars.

Maybe if Matthew's company sold a lot in the next few years and Matthew decided to invest everything they would gain from selling Cisco company stock, maybe they could think about starting such a company.

But Jake himself knew that he didn't have the ability to run such a big company, not to mention that Jake would already be rich from Amazon's stock without such a risk.

But he would support Matthew if that was what he decided to do in a few years, maybe if other investors decided to go into this business it could be much more possible, but their gain would also be greatly reduced.

But this was something that could only be seen after several years, the important thing was to earn as much as they could with this camera right now if Jake didn't have a deal with the university and the basketball association he would make a television commercial Talking about the new camera.

Now he would have to miss this opportunity and hope the company is strong enough to make sales of this camera better than the last camera and secure a few billion dollars for the company.

Admittedly, they would earn more than their last camera sales, after all even if they didn't understand technology, they could see that Matthew's company products were of superior quality to others on the market, and this camera was much more superior than the camera that was sold a few months ago and only for a small extra price.

Matthew suggested that since this was a much larger camera they could sell for a few hundred dollars more, but Jake was against it because even though it was superior to other cameras on the market, Matthew's company already made more than half of its profit value.

And this camera should have an attractive cost that would compete with the digital cameras of other companies in the market, so Matthew's company would gain much more credibility in the market, in a few years the price of the camera would fall a lot and the quality would continue to improve.

Also with the rise of camera phones, people would continue to buy digital cameras from Matthew's company because they would know it is a fair price for a very high-quality product.

After that Jake spent some time talking with Oliver and Matthew before returning home, after this conversation with Matthew he had temporarily settled all the business he had during the holidays.

So he stayed at home with his mother for a while because in the coming months he would have to focus on training before the World Athletics, even if he didn't need to train for marathons he had to enjoy all the time he had to train and improve to compete in more modalities at the next Olympics.

The next day Jake went to training normally at the beach and Coach Davis went with him as well as the lifeguards who had been warned the day before that Jake was coming to train today, before Jake paused to record the commercials and take care of business, he was already getting used to Coach Davis's triathlon training.

Even though it wasn't directly related to long-distance running, Jake understood that this was the best training for someone like him to do, Jake already knew how to keep pace in the race and everyone knew he had good stamina, he had also learned all the techniques you could learn from Coach Davis several weeks ago.

So before training directly for the 10,000-meter and 5,000-meter races, it was smarter to train the few weaknesses Jake had, in Coach Davis's view, Jake already had enough to be able to run the 10,000 meters and 5,000 meters races in a good time.

But if Jake wanted to win the upcoming Olympics he would have to be as good at these races as he was with marathons, and just running was not enough, of course, if Coach Davis knew that Jake had the system he might not create such training.

Even so, Jake was very pleased with this training that was clearly beneficial to him, even though he had the system and could push himself a little harder than other athletes to perform better.

At the end of the day, Jake swam easily into the sea, rode his bike for several miles without tiring, and ran more than 8 km in the sand, seeing that Coach Davis saw that this training was no longer a challenge for Jake and that the next day they could increase the difficulty of training.
