Chapter 284
If you get bullied, it’s your own fault p>
“Different folks, different strokes! My junior is the apple of your eye, while I’m at best the dirt on your heel,” Owen joked deliberately.
“Keep talking, and see if I don’t knock you out p>
“Master, you didn’t even ask what kind of company I’m opening before agreeing to invest p>
“No need. Even if I asked, I wouldn’t understand it. But any company you start won’t fail p>
“The company I’m starting this time is a money pit. It’ll require long-term investment p>
“Then there’s a good reason to invest p>
“Careful, she might sell you out and have you counting the cash for her,” Owen interjected.
“Keep spouting nonsense and I’ll smack you p>
Mira chuckled to herself.
“I want to start Nexus Core Systems to research a mobile operating system, Aegis OS. As you probably know, different operating systems are already emerging overseas that differ from the mainstream ones currently on the market. Their phone sales are climbing every day, and it probably won’t be long before they overtake the current market leaders and break into our domestic market. The future will definitely be dominated by smartphones, and people will rely on them for everything. If my guess is right, smartphones will be the next major gold rush, just like computers p>
Mira had many internet business ideas in her head, but the lack of a proper smartphone system was a bottleneck. Relying entirely on systems provided by others meant being restricted and vulnerable to sanctions. The wars of the future wouldn’t be fought with guns and cannons, but in the corporate world. Falling behind meant getting beaten—a logic both Master Ellis and Owen understood immediately.
If it succeeded, it would benefit the country, the people, and themselves.
“If you really want to crack this tough nut, you’ll need top-tier talent. Besides the best graduates from domestic universities, you’ll need to aggressively recruit top minds from overseas. It truly will be a money pit p>
In this regard, one had to admit that foreign countries were ahead.
“So, Owen, I hope you can help me. If we succeed, we can take on the global market too p>
“Alright, I promise you p>
“Thank you, Owen p>
“No need to thank me. This is our shared ambition p>
“That’s great, Owen. You’ve finally figured it out,” Master Ellis looked at his student excitedly.
“There’s nothing to figure out. Like you said, if my junior can abandon her wealthy family status and carve out her own empire, what can’t I let go of p>
That evening, after returning home, she received a call from Master Ellis.
“Those two agreed to be your bodyguards, but their salary demands are high. They want a hundred thousand dollars a month p>
“Master, do you think that’s too high p>
When she first hired the Iron Wolves, it was ten thousand a month each.
Later, when Mira realized they
weren’t ordinary bodyguards, she up to fifty thousands How
bumpers
could these two ask for a hundred
thousand right off the bat?
“Given their caliber, it’s not unreasonable. You aren’t short on money right now, and safety is paramount p>
“Alright, I’ll listen to you, Master. But l
have a condition. They need to clean up the image. I don’t care about Silas, but can the other guy get rid of the braid p>
Mira strongly disliked men wearing braids; it made them look like mobsters. It was
far too conspicuous.
“Alright, I’ll tell him p>
Hearing their conversation, Rachel pulled Mira aside, away from the Iron Wolves, and whispered, “Thèse two bodyguards are great. Why are you hiring more?
She thought Mira didn’t want the Iron Wolves anymore, and Rachel had grown quite fond of them.
