Chapter 66: Sky Technologies

At the same time as he received the prompt from the system, in his mind, a lot of information was suddenly dumped.

But even without having the chance of processing the information, Michael suddenly felt as though he was experiencing everything.

It was as though he was dreaming, learning how to drive step by step. He was able to make different types of drifts and so on, even doing some things that were quite crazy, almost impossible to do.

It was not that they were impossible to do because they required something special, but because they were dangerous to do. Not many people would attempt doing them.

Several moments later, Michael came back to his senses. And at this point, he realized, he seemed to have been driving different types of cars in different situations for many years.

As for how many years exactly, he could not tell. After all, this was completely different from unarmed combat skill, where the results would be seen after a while.

For the driving skill, it was like he had been inside different types of vehicles for several years. From morning through the night, he was just driving.

He was experiencing different scenarios, and driving the vehicles in order to handle them.

Regardless, at this point, Michael had become one of the very best drivers in the world, if not the best.

After all, his current skills did not only apply in a single type of vehicle, but all types of vehicles.

How many people could actually control different types of vehicles to an advanced extent?

For most professional racers, they were not capable of driving the other vehicles with the same skill as they could the racing vehicles.

Additionally, in this world, how many people could actually drive all types of vehicles?

Nevertheless, Michael took quite a while, before he finally calmed down.

At the moment, his SP had increased to 1,907. This was equivalent to over $190 million!

Michael got slightly excited. After all, with the addition of 1,000 SP, it was as though he had gotten even richer.

Moreover, all of this was achieved within just about 2 weeks. How many people could gain $100 million within just 2 weeks?

Additionally, one had to consider that currently, Michael did not really have any company or business that was bringing him income.

But even if there were people that could make $100 million, how many of them could take out the money?

After all, most of the companies might be able to earn $100 million, but that was without considering the expenses such as employee salaries.

Additionally, most of the money would return to the company, and if the money was taken out, the cash flow of the company might be affected.

As a result, the company operations would be affected, which might even lead to the collapse of the company itself.

As for those that were capable of taking out such a large amount of money, who among them was not a billionaire?

As for Michael, at the moment, apart from the restaurant that was under his name, there was actually no any other asset that he owned.

’Well, I might as well start acquiring companies. Even if I don’t acquire an entire company, I can acquire some shares.’ Michael contemplated.

In fact, he was more inclined to acquiring the shares of a company, rather than acquiring a company as a whole.

After all, if he acquired an entire company, he would be required to start dealing with the management of the company and making some crucial decisions.

While he could leave all that to Adrian, what if he acquired more companies in the future? Additionally, if Adrian was busy with work, who would be in charge of taking care of his meals?

On the other hand, he could just as well acquire more bio humans, but spending 110 SP, Michael was a little unwilling.

Having already thought of this, Michael quickly entered into the store, before accessing the Real Estate and Property category.

But after looking into this category, Michael realized that he could not find what he was looking for.

The companies that he could find within this category were all related to real estate or development and construction companies.

Since that was the case, he quickly accessed the Electronics and Appliances category.

It was in this category that he finally found what he was looking for. While this category included items, it also included companies that were related to electronics and appliances.

Previously, Michael had thought that he would be able to acquire the company through the real estate and property category just like the restaurant.

But from the looks of it, that was not going to be the case. After all, for a restaurant, the location was very crucial.

And more than that, the building itself was also important, as it was renovated to fit the activities of a restaurant.

Maybe this was the reason why he was able to acquire it through the real estate and property category.

Currently, Michael was thinking, with the items that could be found within the system store, which included different types of blueprints, he might as well be able to get himself involved in the technology industry.

“Adrian, could you help me look up for the information on Sky Technologies? Find me the detailed information that you can, there is something that I would like to do.” Michael called for Adrian, before instructing him.

“Sure. Give me a few minutes.” Adrian responded before he left.

About 5 or so minutes later, Adrian came back. He handed Michael a tablet, with the information on Sky Technologies.

Sky Technologies was the biggest technological giant in the entire eastern province.

That was the reason why he decided to focus on this technology company.

The headquarters of this company were located in Brenton city. As for what the company dealt with, it was the wearable devices.

The devices included smartwatches, fitness bands, wireless earbuds and so on.

While they were not able to dominate the market in the nation or even internationally, they definitely were considered as giants within this nation.

In simple terms, they could not be ignored, considering that their products were quite well known, despite some bigger brands producing the same products. This company had built itself a reputation.

Adrian had gotten the information quite quickly, but it was detailed enough.

The current market value of this company was at $6 billion, and it had a total of 570 million shares. As for the price of each year, it was at $10.53 each.

The annual revenue of this company was about $2.5 billion to $3 billion. It had over 8,000 employees in this province, with several production companies spread all over the province’s major cities.

Currently, the R&D department of the company was supposedly focused on miniaturized sensors, battery efficiency, and health tracking algorithms.

As for the profit margin of the company, it was around 10 to 15% annually.

As he was going through the information related to this company, Michael began contemplating.

For the past almost 2 weeks, his SP had just been lying idle, without contributing for anything.

But if he acquired the shares of this company, at least, there would be dividends that would be coming in.

The dividends of this technology company were distributed on a quarterly basis. As long as he acquired a substantial amount of shares, he should be able to earn quite a considerable amount of money every 3 months.

This way, he would solve the issue where he would always have to convert SP into cash. Additionally, he would be able to gain some influence, no matter how small.

With the market value of $6 billion, with his current SP, which was equivalent to over $190 million, he could not acquire much of the shares of this company.

But, over time, he should be able to acquire more, maybe even the entire company. But that was something that would happen later on.

Now, Michael was contemplating, how much was he going to invest? If he decided to invest all of his SP, in case of an emergency, he would not be able to deal with it.

It was better for him to save SP that could be used later on, in case there was an urgent need.

But even then, he had to invest a considerable amount. So, he began making some quick calculations, in order to see how much he would invest.

In the end, he decided to acquire 2.5% of the shares of this company. According to his calculation, it would require him to spend $150 million.

This was equivalent to 1,500 SP. This would then bring his current SP balance to 407.

But making a quick calculation, it seemed that every 3 months, he would be receiving about $900,000. This was equivalent to him receiving 9 SP every 3 months, which would then be converted into cash.

Michael thought that this was not bad, and so, he decided to make the purchase.

In normal situations, even if he had the money, it would have been impossible for him to be able to acquire the shares of the company. But with the system, such things were non-existent.

As for how the system was able to acquire the shares from the hands of those who held them, Michael was completely clueless.

Regardless, he accessed the system store, before he decided to make the purchase of the shares. And within just a blink of an eye, 1,500 SP disappeared.
