Chapter 438
As Ethan left, he cast a long, lingering look at Mira. He couldn’t shake the feeling that his youngest sister had become entirely unfathomable. The hardships outside the Mercer estate had sharpened her into someone formidable. It was for the best; he wouldn’t have to worry about her survival.
Once alone, Mira dialed Owen.
“How is the internet finance project coming along p>
“Operating licenses are approved, and the team is locked in. We’re just waiting to hit
the launch button,” Owen reported.
“Perfect. Thanks for the hard work. What about the firewall p>
“Construction has already started p>
“Did Dominic West still refuse to help out p>
“He’s swamped with his day job. I told you that before p>
“It’s just a shame,” Mira sighed. “His hacking skills are unparalleled. Couldn’t he just
be an occasional consultant? We wouldn’t need him full-time p>
After all, she and Owen managed to juggle multiple executive roles flawlessly.
“You have his number. Why don’t you ask him yourself p>
Unwilling to let it go, Mira called Dominic and explained how critical a robust financial firewall was. If a hacker breached an investment platform, the fallout would be catastrophic.
“Mira, I really can’t take on any side projects. I wish you the best of luck, though,” Dominic said apologetically.
Since he couldn’t participate, he obviously wouldn’t be getting a cut of the profits. Mira moved on to the next phase: building a client base.
She started by integrating the Tier-1 Conservative Fund into the EcoRide app to stabilize and attract casual users. Then, drawing on her past life experience, she structured high-yield, medium-risk Tier-3 Growth Fund, primarily focused on debt assets with a smaller stock portfolio to mitigate the risk.
Given that mutual funds were still a novelty, the public’s initial reaction was highly skeptical, and very few people bought in. However, the backing of Solflare Entertainment and EcoRide gave the platform a veneer of credibility.
The biggest sticking point was the identity of the fund manager.
Mira knew this was her cue. For the initial launch, the manager profile had to operate under her famous alias, ‘Lady Oracle p>
“Wait, the Lady Oracle? The stock market genius who never misses p>
“Who is she in real life? We want a name p>
Watching the comment sections explode, Mira called the fund company. “Reveal it p>
The screen updated, linking Lune, Lady Oracle, and Mira into one undeniable identity.
“Boss, we have buyers p>
“Boss, ten percent of the quota is already sold p>
Mira didn’t need to say another word; she knew it was a guaranteed success.
The moment her name went public, the Solflare executives practically tripped over themselves to invest. Having already profited massively from Mira’s stock tips, they viewed her as a financial deity. They dumped them own money in and aggressively recruited their friends and families, clearing out a massive chunk of the available quotas.
As for the rest of the public? Numbers didn’t lie. Once the funds proved stable and
highly profitable, people would be begging to get in.
With the launch successfully handled, Mira closed her laptop and went back to her homework.
