    Sylvia didn’t notice his expression was off and continued speaking on her own. “Exactly! From our perspective, this is the cheapest <b>type </b>of entertainers,pany. There’s no need to train top–tier celebrities, yet they still take half of the profits.”


    She added, “And the best part is, the artists still think the tform gave them a chance. That kind of mindset is just genius.”


    Even someone like her, who held a strong position in the entertainment industry, was tempted, let alone all those aspiring nobodies dreaming of fara and fortune.


    This was practically a money–printing machine.


    Trevor didn’t say anything, but his expression changed slightly. He clearly understood that if Aubree seeded, she’d be a notable figure in Rithof City.


    But he still looked down on Aubree. He didn’t believe she was capable.


    “It’s just child’s y.” Trevor scoffed.


    However, Sylvia disagreed with him. “Great minds often emerge young. Weren’t you famous when you were young too? Aubree might be young, but her idea already sets her apart. Times are changing. I think what she’s doing could reshape the whole industry.”


    She added, “And even if she fails now, she’ll probably a


    achieve something big in the future.”


    Seeing Sylvia’s admiring expression, Trevor felt nothing but contempt. He thought Aubree had no way to be sessful.


    He thought Aubree probably used the prize money from her previouspetitions to start thispany.


    Once she burned through that money, she’d likely have no choice but to crawl back home, begging for help.


    All this arrogance in front of her brothers was probably just a ploy to make them regret favoring Carmen.


    ‘Just as scheming as ever. Trevor sneered inwardly.


    Trevor didn’t say anything more to Sylvia. Kind advice can’t save someone doomed to fail. Instead of wasting time talking here, he might as well get his own studio’s PR team ready in advance.


    Aubree had been running herself ragged these days.


    Her team was even more enthusiastic than she expected. The testing phase finished two days ahead of schedule. As soon as the appunched, Turner Group aggressively promoted yzy online, flooding the inte with ads.


    Sylvia reposted on Twitter, announcing her official move to yzy and inviting fans to join her for chats and games.


    Even God’s Fury announced its members were signing with yzy<i>, </i>and they would be doing a live broadcast of League of Legends on the tform that very night.


    Whether out of curiosity or love for their idols, yzy rocketed into the top three of the app store on its first day.


    That evening, Aubree stayed at thepany, watching the real–time fluctuations of the user data alongsi

    core developers.


    “Ms. Miller, you’re amazing! Getting Turner Group as a sponsor was a power move. The promotion is outssing everything else out there <b>right </b><b>now</b><b>!</b>”

    Aubree looked at the ever–rising red line on the screen and smiled. “I’ll give extra bonus to everyone as a celebration”


    She added, “Also, get the streamers we recruited ready. Looks like we can go live starting tomorrow.”


    If the tform wanted to operate long–term, traffic was key. But aside from viewers, quality streamers were equally important.


    Drawing from her experience, Aubree had already reached out in advance to those who had gone viral when streaming tforms first boomed. She’d


    have them start broadcasting to seed various content niches.


    It was like <b>a </b>manual, showing aspiring creators what was possible.


    “Ms. Miller, a lot of gaming clubs just messaged me asking about signing deals,” her secretary, Vincent Sloan, said as he approached with his phone. His usually pale face was flushed with excitement.


    Vincent had just graduated with a degree in finance. Initially, when Turner Group declined <i>to </i>refer him elsewhere and instead sent him to Aubree, he had low expectations. He thought a teenage girl starting apany was ridiculous.


    He took the job thinking he could cozy up to her and maybe get into Turner Group through the back door. But the more he worked with Aubree, the more he realized how much potential Bree Technology had.


    If he could stick around, he could be her right–hand man, just like Kelvin, the legendary assistant to Turner Group’s head, Bowen!


    Aubree said without hesitation, “Of course we wee them. These clubs have their own loyal fan bases. The fan retention for e–sports yers is insanely high.”


    “But…” She paused and then smiled. “If Apex Squad contacts us, reject them, no matter what they offer.”


    Whether for personal reasons or business concerns, Apex Squad was off–limits.


    With Killian joining their team and ongoing internal issues, Apex Squad was heading for a streak of defeats in the uing tournament. Public opinion would soon turn against them.


    If they started streaming on yzy during that storm, it would bring nothing but toxic energy to the tform. And personally, Aubree couldn’t stand Emery. There was no way she’d let him benefit from this.


    “Got it, I understand.” Vincent nodded and rushed off to handle it.


    He had noints about working overtime on such a promising project.


    yzy’s debut created massive buzz online. Otherpanies quickly sensed the opportunity, either looking to coborate or rush <b>out </b>copycat products.


    Aubree didn’t care. She was already preparing her next project, Zappy.


    This app had even more potential than yzy. In the previous timeline, it became a nationwide sensation and eventually went global.


    No one could resist mindlessly scrolling on Zappy.


    The next morning, when she woke up and saw the financial report from the ounting department, her smile was truly heartfelt.


    The total revenue on the first day had surpassed two million dors. And that was with many users still unfamiliar with the tform’s gifting features.


    Aubree woke up in the morning and received the financial statement sent to her<i>. </i>She smiled sincerely wher


    <i>w </i>the numbers.


    yzy had already signed deals with several clubs. The next step was to secure the official partnership with the League of Legends game, ideally as <b>the </b>exclusive live broadcast tform. But that could wait.


    For now, Aubree needed to continue boosting promotions, bringing in more celebrities, and cultivating grassroots stars to attract everyday users <b>to </b><b>start </b>streaming and expand tform diversity,


    A few days afterunch, yzy’s user traffic was still climbing daily. It had now imed the top spot in the <b>app </b>store tankings,


    Daily revenue had stabilized around seven million dors. That number alone meant Aubree had already won. All that was left was refining <b>and </b>expanding the tform’s operations.


    “Seven million dors a day… that means we’ll break a hundred million dors in the first month!”


    “I still have 2% equity. Oh my god! This is insane! I never imagined I’d live to see this day!”


    “Ms. Miller, I’ve gotten some offers from other techpanies trying to poach me,”


    Thatment was echoed by everyone in the core development team.


    But, before Aubree could respond, every one of them beat her to it. “Don’t worry, Ms. Miller. We’ll stick with you <i>to </i>the end!”


    No otherpany could match what their shares were worth. The better Bree Technology did, the more they earned. Only a fool would jump ship <b>just </b>for higher sries.


    Aubreeughed. “Stick with me, and you’ll be well taken care of.”


    Offering equity had motivated them to work overtime and also protected her team from being stolen by rivals.


    It was still early days. If she lost her team now, it would all be over.


    Aubree thought to herself, ‘Might as well pack it up and call it a day.‘


    With yzy’s rising poprity, senior leadership at Turner Group had started to take notice.


    At the first meeting Bowen attended after returning to Rithol City, someone brought it up.


    “Mr. Turner, you have a great vision. Getting in on this project was


    a genius move.”


    “Yes! If Bree Technology’s founder had picked someone else to partner with, we’d be left drooling on the sidelines.”


    “Whoever runs Bree Technology is a real talent!”


    No one hated making more money. Turner Group held a 30% stake in Bree Technology, which brought in significant cash flow.


    Bowen listened to thepliments with great satisfaction. “Of course. She’s always been amazing.”


    It had been a while since hest saw her. He wondered if she had lost or gained weight.


    Her birthday wasing up soon. He still had a few more arrangements to finalize<b>… </b>
