The domestic investment circles were sent into a frenzy.
Despite tech giants like Pentime Group dominating the domestic social media landscape with near-unrivaled supremacy, their influence pales in comparison to global behemoths like Facebook and TikTok on the international stage.
Haven Connect, however, was the exception—a homegrown platform that, while making modest waves domestically, has taken the world by storm.
With over 300 million users and peak concurrent users numbering in the tens of millions, it stands as nothing short of a miracle.
Haven Connect shattered the stereotype that domestic tech can only thrive locally. It was rewriting the rules.
Today, Haven Connect had become a source of national pride, and it showed no signs of slowing down, continuing to break new ground.
Its explosive growth had also caught the eye of investors. Social networking-related stocks on the A-share market had been riding the wave of Haven Connect's hype, with prices soaring on speculation.
Then, out of the blue, Haven Connect received an invitation from Facebook's local division, proposing a meeting to discuss a potential collaboration.
Jack knew better. This so-called "collaboration" was likely a smokescreen. Facebook probably wanted an acquisition.
The meeting took place in a small conference room at an international chain hotel.
Facebook's delegation was massive—a lobbying team of about ten, including some of the country's top persuasion experts.
In contrast, Jack's side was modest; it was just him, a few negotiation specialists, Samuel, Josiah, and a handful of R&D staff.
After both parties were seated, an attendant made the introductions.
Brimming with arrogance, Kyle said, "Hello."
