Chapter 166: The Development of the Company

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wesley had been playing games all day, and Mindy had come back in pairs and fought her way through. Wesley’s physical upgrade was already showing results. His fingers were no longer stiff and were a little soft. His reaction speed had obviously increased, and his physical fitness had improved a lot. When he didn’t use his abilities, he was probably about five times as strong as a normal man.

The feeling in the game was very strong because he did not need to use his ability to complete the operation that he could only envy in the past. His reaction speed was also fast enough. Mindy shouted excitedly, and Annabelle was frightened by Mindy and ran to Wesley’s room to sleep.

The next morning was business as usual. After dropping Mindy off at school, Wesley returned home. He didn’t have to wait long before Evelyn Salter arrived with Kyle and Phillip.

Wesley invited them to sit down, then asked Evelyn to make coffee. “How is it? How is the company developing?” Wesley asked directly.

As the CEO, Kyle Robert needed to report first. “Boss, the company is developing very well now. It already occupies 60% of the users of instant messaging software in the United States. The popularity of TT is still rising, and the development of League of Legends is even more explosive. Now that teams from all over the world have been established, the championship competition next year will be even more intense.”

“Well, not bad. Is it sold well around the market?” The game company does not only have games. Character figurines, animated pictures, wallpaper, and so on are all business opportunities. Wesley would not let them go.

“It’s selling very well, especially Mindy’s character setting is very popular. It’s selling the best now, and Annabelle is also on the list.” A businessman is a businessman. He actually sold Mindy and Annabelle separately.

“You did a good job. I’m very satisfied. Next, we’re going to introduce a hero based on the Avengers,” Wesley said.

“What about this copyright issue?”

“It’s okay, they don’t care about this. Don’t worry.” Saul naturally doesn’t know these things, Bruce Banner doesn’t care, Steve Rogers doesn’t care about this when he looks serious. As for Hawkeye and Black Widow, they need to be considered. After all, they are agents.

The one Wesley designed for Saul was Thor, who held a big hammer and was also a top-laner fighter, a little like the berserker Olaf. Captain America Wesley was also positioned as a warrior, and the character setting directly used the prototype. As for Bruce Banner, there were some things to consider. Wesley did not use Mondo’s design, but designed a human holding a gamma ray gun. Finally, the big move was to transform into Hulk, a little like a dragon girl, who transformed when she was full of anger.

There were three new heroes. Four people in the Avengers had been added to the League of Legends. Kyle thought for a while and asked, “Boss, when are you going to join?”

Wesley shook his head. “It’s not time yet. We’ll talk about it in a few years. Maybe I’ll turn myself into a big boss and wait for someone to push me. We’ll talk about it then. Phillip, how are things with the lawyers?”

Philip was now in high spirits because his boss had asked him to be in charge of forming a legal team. He was not famous in New York, but he was now famous in the lawyer industry. “Boss, it’s done. All the companies that have signed contracts have lawyers who are specially responsible for the country’s legal affairs, and there are lawyers who are proficient in international law who are in charge of coordination. The domestic lawyers are also in place and are now in charge of handling the company’s daily legal affairs.”

“Well, it’s not bad. No one can leave the lawyers in the United States. It’s much more convenient to have a legal team, especially your boss. My identity is very special and I need a lawyer.” Wesley turned to Evelyn Sauter, who was in charge of trivial matters. “How is the progress of the headquarters building?”

“It’s already half-completed and well-funded. We can expect to save some time. If you’re willing to start work at night, it will be faster.” Evelyn’s answer satisfied Wesley.

He looked at Kyle. “How’s the recruitment of employees? How’s the development of TT’s mini-game?” Wesley’s TT development plan included the mini-game project, which had been verified. It takes some money to play this kind of mini-game well, but it’s not much, but there are many people playing it. There’s always one that suits you.

“Boss, I’ve recruited a lot of development and maintenance personnel, and I haven’t recruited too many civilian staff. There aren’t that many office spaces now.”

“Well, there’s no hurry. I can give you a few small games first. In a few days, I will send you a Tower Defense game called the Battle of New York.” Wesley suddenly thought of the Tower Defense game. The tower would be Q-processed in the image of Avenger, and then it would be responsible for attacking as a Chitari.

“Boss, your talent is amazing,” Kyle praised.

“You don’t have to say that. I remember your contributions. When you go public, you will naturally have management shares. Although it’s not much, you know the value. Just do it in peace. I won’t treat you badly.” Wesley lit a cigarette and continued, “If the funds allow, you can let the construction company open another class to speed up the construction of the headquarters. Our company is now a big company, and the headquarters is urgently needed. Cyber security is also necessary. The smart system I study will also install a subsystem for you.”

“You have developed a smart system?” Kyle shouted in surprise.

“It can’t be considered a real intelligent system. Even if that thing is developed, it can’t be used freely. It’s too dangerous. As for the specific effect, you’ll know when the time comes. It’s very helpful for auxiliary work, but it must not become the main body.”

Evelyn Salter didn’t understand and opened her mouth to ask, “Why? Isn’t intelligentization a sign and goal of social technological progress?”

Wesley snickered. “What about people? Automated production lines need fewer and fewer workers these days, but the world’s population is increasing. Where will people find jobs when smart systems appear? Capitalists don’t care if workers have food to eat. They just want to save costs. When that happens, a large number of workers will have no jobs and society will be in chaos.”

“Aren’t you also a capitalist?”

“I am an ideal capitalist.” Wesley rolled his eyes and responded casually.

The company was developing well, and its estimated market value had reached 150 billion dollars. This was within Wesley’s expectations, and in another year, TT would probably occupy the world’s main instant messaging software market. At that time, as soon as the Alliance Game Company went public, he would be a real tycoon. Moreover, he had a lot of shares and a lot of dividends every year.
