Chapter 157
SociableNet, formerly known as SchoolSpace, was established in 2005 by a group of students from prestigious universities.
It was primarily used to facilitate social networking on campuses.
Unfortunately, SchoolSpace wasn’t initially favored by investors during its early days. The founders failed to secure investments and had to sell it off cheaply.
The businessman who acquired SchoolSpace also owned another similar social networking site. He merged the two websites and, in the following years, attracted over 100 million users.
Traffic was wealth in the internet era. Carlisle believed he could potentially take SociableNet to new
heights with memories from his past life.
“Cal, see if there are any snacks you want to eat.” Shane walked over, carrying a large bag of snacks.
Carlisle took a pack of chips and beef jerky from the bag, then grabbed a bottle of mineral water.
The dormitory was filled with the sound of munching, and the air was filled with the aroma of spicy
snacks. The roommates chatted and laughed, enjoying themselves.
Eating the beef jerky felt like chewing wax to Carlisle. Even though he had been reborn at 18, he still couldn’t find the same feeling of eating beef jerky from his past life.
He sighed as he handed the remaining pack of snacks to his roommate in the adjacent bed.
Just as he was about to sleep, he suddenly remembered he would need a large amount of cash tomorrow.
When he opened a checking account at the bank previously, the account manager had given him a business card.
Carlisle dialed the number on the card and arranged to exchange a five million dollar check for cash.
After hanging up the phone, Carlisle found himself unable to sleep. Tomorrow would be the day when the development news of Riverwatch District would be released, marking a significant turning point since his
rebirth.
The property he owned, worth over eight million dollars, would likely appreciate by about nine times.
Then, there was Riverwatch Hotel. Selling it for at least 360 million dollars meant he would pocket around 150 million after splitting it,
He would achieve complete financial freedom with over 200 million dollars in hand.
Zachary might be unable to come up with 200 million bucks; even raising 50 million would probably be
difficult for him.
Shein would definitely start to regard him differently.
However, this wouldn’t satisfy Carlisle’s appetite. The hardware suppliers for the mobile phone company

still couldn’t produce the hardware he wanted.
They might not agree to upgrade their hardware research and manufacturing equipment unless he Invested in them.
How many supply chain manufacturers could he invest in with 200 million dollars?
As usual, Carlisle attended the military training the following day.
However, he didn’t pass up his phone this time. Before leaving the dormitory, he texted Lethan, asking him to pay attention to the news today.
Lethan had the habit of going on morning jogs. He was running in the park when he received Carlisle’s
message.
“Pay attention to the news today? What does that mean?” Lethan muttered, frowning.
The next moment, his eyes widened in surprise.
Could he be talking about Riverwatch District’s development news? Was Riverwatch District really going to be developed?
Lethan took a deep breath and turned around, running
-k toward the mansion.
He returned to his bedroom and turned on the 37–inch LCD TV, tuning it to Riverland TV Station.
However, Riverland TV Station was currently replaying footage of a handsome young man coming out of a high school exam room.
“It’s him again. This handsome examinee once again handed in his paper and left the exam room within half an hour.
“Next, we’ll be interviewing him.
