    When yzy announced it was seeking investment, interested parties came flooding in–one could hardly count them all,


    Companies that rode the initial yzy hype wave byunching simr live–streaming apps


    made a killing.


    Meanwhile, those who had sat on the fence at first were now kicking themselves–and the moment the news broke, they scrambled to get <b>in </b>touch.


    ‘Sure, there’s risk. But what doesn’te with risks?‘ they wondered.


    With the Turner Group backing Bree Technology, no risk was too big–just getting in on the action means guaranteed profits.


    Over the past few days, Aubree, together with Birgitte and Vincent, had been hustling through meetings with various investors. After several rounds of intense negotiations, she finally narrowed it down to two partners.


    Between them was Aidan:


    It wasn’t that Aubree particrly wanted to pick Aidan–it’s just that the guy was offering way too much. No matter what terms she threw out, that foreigner would just sh her a big grin and agree without hesitation.


    As Aidan put it, his goal was to partner with Bree Technology, so naturally, he had to show the utmost sincerity.


    The investment from the Matthews family in Odiond gave Bree Technology another major boost, and astute observers had already sensed that Aubree was making a push into overseas markets.


    After securing the investment, Aubree channeled every cent into yzy’s operations. She actively leveraged her connections to secure exclusive live- streaming rights for multiple national tournaments. During every contract negotiation, she made it a non–negotiable demand. yzy had <b>to </b>be the sole live–streaming tform.


    This essentially meant that yzy now enjoyed official endorsement from national authorities for its development.


    At this point, Bree Technology’s market valuation entered a period of explosive growth, soaring overnight from a billion to 3 billion dors.


    When the news broke, everyone was left speechless.


    Such achievements were rarely matched across the whole of Lumanon–even Bowen, in his day, built on the Turner family legacy to achieve his own remarkable feats. As for Aubree, it was no exaggeration to call her truly self–made.


    Sure, she had help, yet it couldn’t deny that she was powerful.


    Aubree roping in a powerhouse like the Turner Group from day one already showed it.


    With a grand gesture, Aubree handed out hefty bonuses to every employee in thepany.


    “Overseas market expansion needs to be next on the agenda,” Aubree mused, nodding approvingly as


    she reviewed thetest financial reports.


    Overseas expansion meant working with Aidan–and that was exactly why he was here. Every negotiation went off without a hitch.


    Aubree took the chance to give Aidan a glimpse of Zappy.


    “Aubree, how on earth does your mind work like that?” Just <b>a </b>few words from her had already left Aidan in awe.


    ‘If she weren’t my buddy Bowen’s girl, I’d seriously consider whisking her back to Odiond, Aidan mused.


    “Just yed it smart,” Aubree said with a faint smile.


    Aidan let out a heartyugh. “Well then, Aubree, my money’s all set for you.”

    With the domestic market already wide open for her, and the Matthews family paving the way overseas, it was only a matter of time before Aubree took the international scene by storm.

    In the Wilson residence, Rithol City, while Aubree’s star was shining brighter than ever, things weren’t looking so rosy for the Wilson family.


    Ronald’s scheme to take over Bree Technology had failed, and now hispany


    in


    trouble


    In the living room, Emery sat slumped on the sofa, head bowed. Ronald, livid, hurled the documents at his head. “What the hell <b>have </b>you done<b>?</b>”


    Apex Squad’s rapid rise to be a premier League of Legends powerhouse owed much to the Wilson Group’s instrumental backing.


    One could say Apex Squad was the Wilson Group’s arm in the esports industry.


    As Apex Squad’s primary investor, the Wilson Group mostly took a hands–off approach to how the funds were actually used for development.


    Ronald had just received word that esports was officially included in the major tournaments turn around and find that Emery had practically run the club into the ground.


    In the season finals, they were seeded into Group B in the


    sand was all set to build up Apex Squad and cash in–<b>only </b>to


    first round, only to crash out immediately in the second.


    To make matters worse, Emery, Apex Squad’s owner, openly admitted to throwing matches in the main event.


    Quite a few investors have already started pulling out.


    No wins, no integrity–fans are fleeing in droves.
