Chapter 302 Defeat

Jessica pulled two different face masks from the drawer.

Daniel tore each package open, pinched the masks between his fingers, and even took a sniff of

their scents. After drawing his conclusions, he let out a long sigh.

"Sigh..."

"What are you sighing about?"

"I'm just thinking... Honey, your product has met its match in this extraordinary competitor, and that's

why you faced such a brutal defeat in the market!"

"Idiot, what are you talking about? How dare you say my product failed? If anyone’s a failure, it’s

you! Humph!"

In response, Jessica grabbed a folder and lightly tapped it against Daniel’s back as a sort of playful

reprimand. Then, full of anticipation, she asked, "So what about 'The Seven White'? Did they use

some funky ingredients that don't show effects immediately, but could be harmful over the long

term?"

"Honey, just because your product isn’t winning, are you thinking of smearing your competitor with

dirty tricks?"

"What’s wrong with that? If Isabella did it, am I not allowed to?"

"What did she do exactly?"

"Even though Isabella didn't directly disparage our products, she's far from fair play. There are so

many manufacturers she could use, but she just had to target TMO's. She offered a high price and

poached our manufacturer, causing a disruption in our mask production. Then, Isabella took that

opportunity to roll out 'The Seven White.'"

"It sounds like Isabella is actually quite wary of you. Even though her product is better than yours,

she didn't dare to face you head-on and had to resort to sneaky tactics."

"Humph! Of course she should be wary. She's an outsider who dared to snatch my manufacturer on

New York soil? Just thinking about it makes me mad!"

Daniel picked up a TMO mask and examined the packaging.

"Just from the packaging, this mask doesn’t seem very high-end. And I can’t even begin to discuss

the product quality."

He went to the drawer and took out a few more masks, opening them for inspection.

"The quality of TMO masks seems to vary with each one, doesn’t it?"

"You're right! They’re all different. Because she stole my manufacturer, I had to find a new one and

their quality control is terrible. That's why the masks came out looking like this mess and I can't

even sell them! We spent years developing this mask and invested a massive amount in research. I

planned to make at least five billion in net profits for TMO within a year and now it’s all gone. Not

only did I lose my expected profits, but I’m also almost a hundred billion in the hole. All those

unsellable stocks in the warehouse are driving me crazy!"

Jessica rambled on, but Daniel wasn’t listening. After sniffing the mask again, he asked, "Got a

lighter?"

"I don't smoke. Why would I have a lighter?" Jessica looked puzzled. "What are you planning to

do?"

"These masks could be treasure material. If my plan works, we can use these to create a new face

mask that’ll completely beat 'The Seven White.'"

"A new face mask? That’s a terrible name."
