To become part of the 1%, or even 0.1%, he sacrificed a lot, but also gained a lot. ```

Chapter 308: When the Storm Meets

"Mark:

You might not know who I am yet, I'm the founder of SGI and a cooking seat on the board.

Although nominally a cooking seat on the board, only Clark himself knew that he was actually nothing.
