Next to him was Akio Higashino, a legend of Aeos who specialized in artificial
intelligence. The man was the third most influential individual in the room, after
Stefan and the new KCL chairman.
Akio was very ambitious, and wanted to diversify his business to different
technological domains. Not only did his company excel in artificial intelligence,
they were also researching electronic chips as well. However, they were unable
to make a breakthrough in their research, resulting in their inability to produce
the electronics they wanted. Hence, they were stuck in third place.
For over a decade, the man had been trying to destroy the partnership between
H Group and KCL Group, in hopes of replacing H Group as KCL’s business

partner. If his company, Higashino Corp, could sign a contract to work with KCL,
he was confident that they would surely surpass KCL in the future.
“Mr. Hunt, you’re so calm! Could it be that you’ve already signed a contract with
KCL in private? If that’s the case, congratulations are in order!” Akio nodded as
he naturally flashed Stefan a fake smile. Truthfully, he had no idea about the
man’s relationship with the new chairman of KCL, and was just trying to pry
information out of Stefan.
“No, I’m not close to the new chairman,” Stefan replied indifferently.
“Oh? You aren’t?” Akio’s eyes lit up, and his lips curved into a grin. “Looks like
we’ll be having a fair competition then, Mr. Hunt. KCL might choose to work with
Higashino Corp now, or even someone else entirely.”
“Indeed. As long as the person is genuine about working with them, they’d
probably have a chance at signing a contract with KCL,” Stefan said honestly.
Back then, due to his special relationship with Julian, H Group was the sole
company that formed a partnership with KCL Group.
However, now that Julian had been replaced by the new chairman, he wasn’t
quite sure if he’d be able to successfully win KCL over.
He had tried to find out about the new chairman’s identity from Julian, but his
nephew had no idea who the person was either. This only made Stefan even
more curious about the person’s identity.
“Oh no, that’s simply too inconsiderate! If Higashino Group were to partner up
with KCL, wouldn’t that make us H Group’s biggest threat?” Akio maintained his
smile, pretending to be kind.
“Besides, isn’t H Group facing a lot of issues right now? Not only has your
primary research team left, but your investors, with the Murphys in the lead,

intend on withdrawing their investments as well. If your most important G6 chip
project fails, H Group might even face bankruptcy. We’re really worried about
you!”
Stefan chuckled coldly. “If you’re so worried about us, Mr. Higashino, why don’t
you just voluntarily give up on working with KCL?”
“That won’t do!” Akio’s expression shifted instantly. “How could we miss out on
such a great opportunity?”
At that moment Frederick’s call had finally gotten through, but the person on the
other end of the line gave him a rather odd request.
“Umm…” The president put down his phone and looked at Seraphina, who was
in the meeting room outside of the conference. “Miss Murphy, whether the new
chairman attends and whether our conference goes successfully… is up to you!
We’re counting on you!”
