[Story] One day, a businessman with a solid preference for soccer went far to attend the sixteenth lecture on the condition of internet business. During the lecture, he shouted at the lecturer, “How much is the jean? I rely on the internet for my business, but all you do is complain about conditions!” The lecturer, confused, replied, “Look at the condition of the internet, not the price of jeans!”
