The Tycoon's Odyssey

It was a moment of celebration for a new player in the smartphone arena, and the positive reviews were pouring in like an unstoppable wave.

The highlight of the reviews was the Nex One Mini, a compact marvel that was priced under 20,000 rupees and boasted an astonishing AnTuTu score of 900,000

But it was the Nex One Pro that truly left audiences flabbergasted, its score soared beyond 2 million, shattering previous records and leaving everyone in a state of utter disbelief.

This announcement ignited conversations across the globe, even reaching the bustling capital of Indra, where whispers of awe filled the air.

The first sale alone went beyond everyone\'s expectation.

Now what drove all this?

Except for the technology, there were two factors that stood out.

The backing of the Macrosoft\'s brand behind it and the other was the inclusion of wireless charging, which had people going nuts.

However, not everything was smooth sailing. While the smartphones were sold like hotcakes, the laptop was cold and frigid. Compared to other sales, it didn\'t go well but this didn\'t mean that Next Gen was making a loss.

Unlike what others thought, the loss wasn\'t anything alarming. After all, all the products were made with the help of molecular printers and Evan had hardly spent $10 on a smartphone and laptop.

Rather, all this had been crafted by using recycled trash collected from the broken electronic debris.

But since everything was happening behind the scenes in the darkness, the work was in a frenzy.

How did they develop their own semiconductor industry?

The capitalists wondered in disbelief, their minds racing. This technology had seemingly emerged from nowhere, a sudden bloom in a landscape long dominated by established giants. The government officials were in a frenzy, scrambling to process and evaluate the new smartphones and semiconductors. After all, it was one of the most vital things for the current generation.

However, the test results that emerged only deepened their intrigue. Discover exclusive tales on m,v l\'e-NovelBin.net

The Nex One smartphones demonstrated remarkable durability; their metal frames effectively scaffolded against damage. The chips, unlike any previously encountered, offered an efficiency that was nothing short of revolutionary. Built on a 3nm process, they defied conventional understanding. Yet, the true bombshell lay hidden beneath the surface; if only they knew that, at full capability, the scores could soar to a staggering 4 million, and that the currently sold devices were underclocked, the sleepless nights of the tech in the world would only multiply exponentially.

In Indra, the Nex One smartphone had quickly transformed into the hottest sensation, flying off the shelves faster than hotcakes. Despite the world still adapting to the new player on the scene, Nex One had made an indelible mark. It was only a matter of time before its capabilities would leak beyond the borders of Indra, stirring ripples of excitement and concern across the global tech community.

Meanwhile, at Pears, CEO Steve Hook, was not the one to bask in the glow of such positive news from competitors. As he sat in his sleek office, overlooking the city, the glowing screens in front of him displayed the shocking statistics and reviews of the Nex One smartphones. He rubbed his temples, feeling a mix of worry and anger bubble within him.

The Pears had dropped by 20% so had their share in the market.

"Where did things go wrong?" Steve mused aloud, his voice barely above a whisper, heavy with frustration. The announcements had hit him like a gut punch. Pears had long been a leader in innovation and smartphone technology, yet the arrival of a newcomer from nowhere had seemingly shaken the very foundations of the industry he had worked tirelessly to build.

Leaning back in his chair, he stared out at the horizon. "How did they manage to develop such advanced technology so quickly?"

His mind raced with all those negative thoughts.

"Four million?" he scoffed, shaking his head. "What kind of shit is that? We can\'t let them take the market without a fight."

His anger simmered beneath the surface as he contemplated the ramifications. Pears had poured their fortunes heavily into their R&D, yet what had they produced? Mere incremental improvements compared to the existing technology, while Next Gen had seemingly created a masterpiece.

"Are we falling behind?" The question nagged at him. He had prided himself on foresight, yet this felt like a betrayal from the very industry he had been leading all this long. If the rumors about the Nex One devices being underclocked were true, he knew they had to act fast.

The Nex One might bring a crisis that might lead them to dominate the world. If their very first smartphone was this impressive, what about the next ones?

He couldn\'t live in denial that they wouldn\'t be able to produce more powerful chips, could he?

Steve clenched his fists, his thoughts racing. "We need to counter this. We need to innovate, innovate faster than ever."

He reached for his phone, dialing the number of his head of R&D. There was no room for hesitation; the next moves would be critical.

"I need a report on our current projects and what we can do to compete," he demanded as soon as the line was connected. "And I wanted it yesterday. We can\'t let Next Gen have this lead. Also, study the Nex One in detail, do everything you can to copy the things and understand."

Memories of how he had threatened Evan resurfaced in his mind. If only he had known that things were going to be like this, he would have dealt with him properly, but it wasn\'t as if he didn\'t try.

He had sent people after Evan again and again, but all of them failed. The security around Evan was so tight that it made Steve wonder if the young man wasn\'t an entrepreneur but the head of a country.

"Haa!" Steve rubbed his temples with a stressed expression.

"Damn! Since meeting him, I have never had a moment of peace…And fuck Macrosoft… riding on his coattails."

"If I had known this, I would have either killed him or brought him to my side."

However, regret won\'t change anything, would they?

Little did Steve know that the ripple effects of Nex One\'s success were just the beginning, and the landscape of the tech world was going to transform and would never be the same again.
