Chapter 84: Chaos, New Product

As soon as the call connected, Martin began instructing, “Clara, make preparations, just in case the new chairman shows up at the company tomorrow.

In fact, I will contact him tomorrow first thing morning when I get to the company. And, I will invite him to the company, so that we can meet sooner.

Moreover, prepare everything related to the product launching that is supposed to go online on 1st of August.

Inform the other executives of the company that they should all perform well, and not try ruining the image of the company.

Those who end up offending the new chairman might end up losing their jobs. So, discipline is something that they must pay attention to. They should also manage their subordinates, to avoid anything going awry….”

For the first time in a long while, Martin gave a chain of commands, trying to make sure that everything was going to be meticulous.

He understood, there was a possibility of him losing his position, but nonetheless, he was still willing to work just as he was expected of as the CEO of the company.

So, he had to make all the arrangements necessary, to avoid anything that might end up affecting them.

At least, if they lost their jobs, let it be that it was the decision by the new chairperson, rather than a mistake by them.

After giving the instructions, Martin could not continue with what he was doing before. Instead, he just went back to his bedroom, and joined his wife.

But for the entire night, it proved almost impossible for him to be able to sleep. So, when morning came, dark circles had formed under his eyes.

Lucky for him, having already gotten used to not sleeping on some days, he did not feel much pressure from not sleeping throughout the night.

As for the dark circles under his eyes, they were quite faint, barely noticeable. So, he did not pay too much attention to them, as he prepared himself, before he quickly headed for the company.

As soon as he got there, he realized that just as he had instructed Clara, everything was going as it was supposed to be.

This made him feel relieved, so, he decided to focus on another thing. After getting to his office, looking at the time, it was already 8 a.m.

So, after composing himself, he made a call to Michael. Michael’s contact information was available ever since his first share purchase, so, Martin had already saved Michael’s contact info on his phone.

While waiting for the call to connect, Martin could not help but feel slightly nervous.

….

The night was quite peaceful for Michael. Maybe it was because of the enhancement, but this time, he had such a beautiful sleep.

It was just that, while he was busy enjoying the sleep, his phone suddenly began ringing, dragging him from a sweet dream.

This slightly irritated Michael. And as he struggled to open his eyes, he grabbed the phone from the bedside table.

Looking at the new number that was calling him, Michael could not help but frown. And as much as he thought about it, he realized that there was no one that he knew, that could contact him with a new number.

As he was still making speculations of who this person might be, forgetting about his acquisition of Sky Technologies the previous night, he received the call.

“Hello?” Michael spoke with a slightly groggy voice.

“Hello Mr Santos, sorry for waking you up. My name is Martin Alonso, the CEO of Sky Technologies.

Yesterday night, I was informed of your acquisition of the company. But since it was late, I did not call.

Today, I have called you to ask, when are you free to visit the company? And, are there any changes that you would like to make?” Martin’s voice came through the phone’s earpiece.

The sleep in Michael’s eyes immediately vanished when Martin mentioned Sky Technologies.

Due to the enhancements that he had received from taking the evolution serum, Michael had momentarily forgotten about the acquisition of Sky Technologies.

Now that he had been reminded by Martin, he thought, he might as well pay a visit to this company. Ever since he obtained the shares of his company, he had never visited it.

So, before making any other plans, it seemed that it would be quite good for him to go there and see for himself how things operated.

While he could acquire information through hacking and other methods, sometimes, other things required him to personally see them.

“I will be there in the afternoon. Let’s talk about anything else after I get there.” Michael responded.

“Okay, boss. Have a nice day.” Martin responded.

With that, the call between the two of them ended.

Michael could no longer continue sleeping, as he wanted to test out something else, before going to the company. That was why he wanted to go there in the afternoon, instead of in the morning hours.

He instructed Adrian to acquire the information related to the new device that Sky Technologies was about to launch.

Just after he was done with freshening up, Adrian was already done with the task assigned to him.

While sitting at the dining table, to fill his already empty stomach, Michael began going through the information that Adrian had sent to him.

According to the information, it seemed that the new product that the company was about to launch was a smartwatch.

From the information, it seemed that this was a version that was way more advanced as compared to the one that was currently sold by Sky Technologies.

They had been researching on how to advance this watch, but in the end, they decided to release a new product, instead of an advanced version of the one that was already in the market.

The company’s newest wristwatch had a practical design, built with a lightweight aluminum case and a bright AMOLED display that stayed clear even under direct sunlight.

It came with basic health tracking, including heart rate, oxygen measurement, and sleep monitoring, along with several sport modes that users could switch between easily.

Connectivity remained simple but reliable. The watch supported Bluetooth for pairing and offered optional LTE on the higher models, allowing calls and messages without a phone nearby.

Notifications, reminders, and light app usage ran smoothly, powered by a mid-range processor and a modest amount of storage. The battery lasted several days on a single charge, one of the few advantages the company proudly advertised.

It also included GPS for outdoor tracking, NFC for local payments, and a small set of safety features like fall detection and quick emergency alerts. The interface was straightforward, with clear menus and a lightweight operating system that didn’t overwhelm the user.

Overall, the watch was built for everyday use, durable, comfortable, and not overly complicated. In a market dominated by powerful giants, it stood out by being dependable, affordable, and easy for anyone to pick up and use without effort.

After going through the information, Michael was quite amazed.

While it was true that Sky Technologies was a giant in the Eastern province, in the technology industry, in comparison to those giants that could be found within the central province, it was nothing much.

It was no wonder that it did not target anything complex, but instead, it targeted simplicity and efficiency.

This way, not only would the price of the watch be cheaper, but many people would be able to use it easily. This was going to be an advantage that they would hold against those big corporations.

’From the looks of it, there is nothing much that needs to be changed about this company.’ Michael mused.

Since the company did not try fighting head-on with those giants, it was clear that the person that was making the decisions was quite clear-headed.

This was a battle against those giants, but it was not a direct one. It did not target the richest consumers, but it targeted the most.

In every nation in the world, the richest were always fewer as compared to those that could barely make ends meet.

So, as soon as the watch was cheap, it could be afforded by many people. This way, quantity could make up for the profits. No matter how small the profits were, as long as so many watches were sold, the profits would still be quite high.

Now, getting a clear understanding of what product the company was going to launch, Michael had already made a plan on what he was going to do next.

In order to be able to build up his own wealth, he would need to depend on this company, or maybe even acquire more companies later on.

But that was something that would be left for later, after he visited the company, and understood the situation better, apart from the information that he already possessed.

As he set aside the information, he concentrated on eating. And after he was done, he decided to finally test what he wanted to try out.

He wanted to see, after he took the evolution serum, and his body underwent more enhancements, would he be able to read faster than before?

As he was thinking about this, he selected a document that contained the information that had been compiled by Adrian. The information was about unarmed combat skills.

Due to Adrian possessing a physique that was above that of humans, he was able to master the unarmed combat skills to the expert level. So, he had already compiled the information on this.

As he opened the document, Michael began reading, and then, he realized that there was so much change that had been brought about by the evolution serum.
