I'm just going to vent my anger~

Chapter 74 I'm just going to vent my anger~

"So you went to Atari to threaten them?"

"Oh, Ethan! How could you do something so dangerous?"

"What if they get angry and pull out a gun to fight you?"

"Ethan! You're twenty years old now, you'll be twenty-one in November, right? Why are you still so impulsive?"

That evening, as soon as Ethan Jones returned home, he found the villa across the street brightly lit.

He knocked on the door and entered, proudly recounting his day's achievements.

When Evelyn Jensen learned that her brother had decided to reconcile with Milroyal and had already taken action, she, who had expected it, simply nodded slightly to indicate that she understood. However, when she discovered that Ethan Jones had actually gone to Atari to threaten Nolan Bushnell, forcing Atari to swallow its bitter pill by sacrificing themselves, the girl who was stirring the salad there suddenly looked up and expressed her surprise.

Although her voice was high-pitched and her attitude intense, her deep concern still made Ethan Jones, who was leaning against the door, smile.

"Oh Evelyn~ Atari's already punched me in the face, am I not allowed to fight back?"

"This isn't about whether you fight back or not! It's about the danger you're putting yourself in!" Evelyn Jensen stood in front of Ethan Jones, poking his chest forcefully with her finger, and said, "Safety! You know?"

"Yeah~Yeah~Yeah~I know~"

Ethan smiled and nodded, giving a good answer, but the next second he spread his hands and said, "I know I can convey my anger and determination to Atari in other ways, but none of those ways can make me feel as good as a live confrontation."

"Because from the moment we met, they had already set me up!"

"Because from the moment we met, they wanted to take my things away!"

"When these facts came out, I felt like punching them in the face!"

Ethan clenched his right fist and waved it in the air.

Evelyn pursed her lips at the act of venting.

After staring at each other for a while, the girl shook her head with a helpless smile.

"Okay, okay, I understand how you feel, but I don't approve of your behavior."

"and……"

"What's done is done, and you're back safe and sound, so whatever I say will make you think you're absolutely right, right?"

The girl tilted her head and raised her eyebrows; though she was asking a question, her tone was full of certainty.

"Of course~"

Ethan smiled, his face beaming with smugness.

Evelyn is right, because since ancient times, no matter which country or civilization, the rule has always been that the victor is king and the loser is villain!

Victory can cover up everything!

Evelyn said he was somewhat adventurous and impulsive.

But the matter was accomplished!

That's enough!

Evelyn took in the boy's beaming smile. Although she knew he was currently in a "I'm the boss, God is second" mode and unlikely to listen to anything anyone said, she still wanted to know if he had made any other preparations before rushing off to Atari. If he had a backup plan, Evelyn would give him a thumbs up for his meticulousness; if not… well, sorry, even if things were resolved, you'd still get a beating!

When Evelyn asked what was on her mind, Ethan's answer was quite straightforward.

"Wow~Wow~Wow~ I'm not an idiot, okay?!"

"How could I possibly die with those two idiots?"

"The reason I dared to confront them and threaten them today is because they believe the most valuable thing I own is the game copyright!"

"When they think that what they hold onto is all I have, I fight them for everything I have. That's how ordinary people are perceived by them. And that's when they start to feel afraid—afraid that I'll drag them into the abyss for something they consider trivial. After all, in their eyes, their own lives are more precious than mine."

Ethan stared intently at Evelyn.

He wanted to say that his idea was a variation of "those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose," but he knew the girl wouldn't understand.

So he continued:

"To be honest, if they didn't have this idea, if they knew I still had shares in a chip company and was also making future investments in Steve Jobs' computer company, I wouldn't have gone there today at all."

"I will do what Barbara said, accept my bad luck, sell the game's copyright, and use the money to fill the hole caused by my ignorance."

Do you think I really care about Snake Game?

"No!"

"What I really care about is that they're trying to scam me!"

"They think I'm easy to fool!"

"They think I can fool them!"

That's right!

Ethan Jones doesn't care about the copyright of Snake Game at all!

There's nothing we can do; he just has too many ideas in his head.

Any product you borrow from will become a bestseller!

When a bright future is presented to him, he will not risk his life and death with Atari over the copyright of a game!

His trip to Atari today was an attempt to exploit an information gap. If he could intimidate Nolan Bushnell and Don Valentine, that would be ideal. However, if they didn't accept his threats, he could easily dump *Snake Game* on the market, perhaps by having Steve Jobs spearhead a sale to the MCA?

After all, compared to chips and Apple products, the copyright of a video game is really insignificant!

Evelyn was stunned for a few seconds by such a blunt remark, and then she showed a look of being both amused and exasperated.

"You went to Atari just to vent your anger?"

"Of course!" Ethan raised his hand and patted his face. "That's why I went there."

Evelyn shook her head repeatedly at his shameless words and continued, "What if—and I mean, what if—Nolan Bushnell and Don Valentine weren't threatened by you after you went? Or what if their attitude was very firm?"

"That would be even more embarrassing!" Ethan shrugged. "So I gave them a hard time and came back!"

"I've already embarrassed myself in front of them once, so I'm not afraid of embarrassing myself a second time, right?"

"Pfft..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Evelyn burst into laughter at Ethan's childish words.

Perhaps it was because Ethan's actions were too awesome, or perhaps she was just happy that the matter was resolved. In any case, while laughing, Evelyn suddenly raised her hand, lightly wiped the corner of her eye, and then said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I was wrong about you."

"You're not innocent! You're a scoundrel!"

In Evelyn's opinion, Ethan's venting behavior was no different from children playing house!

At most, it's just an upgrade from the original six-year-old version to an 18+ adult PLUS version.

But Ethan...

"Thank you," he replied with a smile.

Because he likes the word "scoundrel"!

What we're really fighting for in this life is just that pride!

Gold and silver are like dirt, but face is worth a thousand pieces of gold!

As for whether the process was somewhat indecent?

That's not important at all!

Having come into this world from the 21st century, he knew perfectly well what a true business war was.

Fake business battles are all about scheming, plotting, and far-reaching plans to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Real Business Warfare:

It was midnight when the chairman personally climbed over the wall to sneak into someone else's factory and film their production line.

The company owner was poisoned to death by company executives;

The company president personally took action, creating false information to report the incident, leading employees to post illegal information on a competitor's app, and then holding up large posters at the school gate, impersonating the tearful complaints of students' parents.

It was a battle between retail investors and Wall Street that ultimately forced the major shareholders to physically cut off the supply.

There was also a boss who led a burly man straight into his own headquarters, seized all the company seals, and finally hung them on his waist.

High-end business warfare often emphasizes simplicity and unpretentiousness!

The first thing a true capitalist should learn is DuPont's abundant martial spirit!

If you can eliminate your competitors using physical means, then you will be the biggest winner in the market!

no way……

Who says this is a world where everyone's worse is better?
