Manager Schwarts was well-prepared, and he had clearly documented the current network status of Williams Corp. About half an hour later, Eric set down the documents he had been reviewing."The equipment is indeed quite outdated, lagging behind the latest technology by one or two generations. Has the company never replaced this equipment before?" Eric inquired.He had expected a large conglomerate like Williams Corp. to prioritize network security and other aspects, but the information he reviewed did not reflect that.Manager Schwarts smiled sheepishly and explained, "The company doesn't pay much attention to these aspects. Whenever a device breaks, we simply replace it. Nobody really bothers as long as the network keeps running."Upon hearing Manager Schwarts' words, Eric understood the situation. The lack of attention to these issues by Williams Corp. had led to the current state of its network."There should be a central data station, right? The corporation should still have a

Sylvia expressed her thoughts, "The company's starting date isn't important. What matters is the people and their capabilities. I believe you should consider hiring more staff to avoid being overwhelmed later on."Curious, Eric looked at Sylvia and asked, "What do you mean?"At their current stage, Innova Tech had sufficient staff to handle their workload unless they secured a project from one of the major conglomerates. However, Eric sensed that Sylvia had more to say."After inquiring around, I discovered that your company was the only one to conduct an on-site inspection when Williams Corp and Sonnex Corp. sent invitations to other companies. Attitude is crucial in business, and based on your attitude alone, you've already achieved half of the success," Sylvia remarked.Eric smiled and replied, "I hope so."Hiring more employees could be considered once they secured projects. Having worked in the tech industry for many years, Eric had built connections with peers who could prov

At Westman Technology.David received a notice from Sonnex Corp. stating that the bidding process would be a joint effort, with Westman Technology playing a supporting role. This didn't come as a surprise to David, as he was familiar with such unspoken rules. While he didn't expect to win the bid with Sonnex Corp., he had confidence in securing the project with Williams Corp.Just as David was lost in his thoughts, his phone suddenly rang, bringing a smile to his face."Come downstairs and join me in welcoming Brook Williams!" the caller exclaimed.David and Jasmine made their way downstairs, only to find that Brook had already arrived."You have something to discuss with me, asshole?" Brook asked, using his usual nickname for David.Jasmine struggled to contain her laughter upon hearing the nickname, knowing she'd face the consequences if she laughed.Maintaining a respectful expression, David replied, "Brook, I managed to get a bottle of fine wine yesterday. How about we go to

Westman Technology was just playing a supporting role in the bidding process. How priceless would David's reaction be when he realized Innova Tech had secured the projects?Brook finished his glass of wine, stood up, and said, "I'll represent you in this matter. You just need to attend the bidding when the time comes.""Wait, Brook!" David quickly stood up. "Let me arrange some entertainment for you tonight as a token of appreciation! I'll make sure you're satisfied!"Brook waved his hand. "It's not necessary. Just focus on the bidding process and do a good job."David saw Brook off, overflowing with joy."Westman Technology is on its way to becoming one of the top tech companies in Salt City!""Congratulations, babe!" Jasmine exclaimed.David glanced at Jasmine and bragged, "Your ex-boyfriend thought he could compete with me by starting his own company. Ha! He's no match!""That's right!" Jasmine responded, although her mind was elsewhere.Seeing David about to return to the

"I will return to our hometown to recuperate!" Blake said firmly.If he stayed here in Salt City to recuperate, it would only cause trouble for Eric and Elly. Moreover, the higher cost of living in Salt City was another factor to consider.Besides, Elly had very little say when it came to matters involving Craig. If Blake stayed there for some time, it would inevitably lead to conflicts between the couple.As for Eric, his company had just started, and he would undoubtedly be very busy.Hence, in Blake's opinion, returning to their hometown for rest and recuperation was undeniably the best choice.Expressing his thoughts proved challenging for Eric. He pursed his lips and said, "Dad, I have rented a house here in Salt City, and there are still two months left on the lease. You could stay there."Considering Sylvia's blunt statement to Eric on his first night there, that Eric's parents couldn't move into the Rosewood Estate, there was no need to even consider it.Eric would fulfi

Sylvia expressed doubt, but Eric reassured her, "I'm sure Big Bro's family is well-off, but our bond as sworn brothers transcends money. I don't expect him to give me anything or help me in any way. Just like our relationship, I could exploit it for personal gain, but I am not that kind of person. I could never stoop so low."He continued. "We just need to endure for another three years. You'll achieve your goal by then, and I'll receive what I deserve. It will be a happily-ever-after story."Eric generously said, cutting off any further objections from Sylvia, "Alright, take your time eating. When you're finished, just leave everything here. I'll clean up later." Before Sylvia could respond, Eric swiftly rose from his seat and retreated to his room.Seeing Eric close the door to his room, Sylvia suddenly felt an unexpected sense of unease. Had she made a grave mistake by extending her control over Williams Corp.? This rare moment of doubt shook her to the core.The next morning,

Andy found himself pleasantly surprised to discover the impressive reputation his company had garnered in the industry. How was he not aware of it before?The mention of Innova Tech by the CEO of Sonnex Corp. alone was a valuable form of recognition. Regardless of the outcome of this bid, Innova Tech's name would undoubtedly become well-known.The representative from Westman Technology was also present and gnashed his teeth in frustration while witnessing the attention focused on Andy. He wondered, 'Why did Mr. Sonnex mention Innova Tech and not Westman Technology? What's going on?'Irvin took a moment to look at Andy, feeling a tinge of regret, before speaking. "There are many companies present here today, so let's begin as soon as possible." He gave a light nod at Keith, and the bidding conference of Sonnex Corp. officially commenced! -Meanwhile, at Williams Corp."Wow, what brings Innova Tech here? Did you come all this way just to witness Westman Technology secure the bid

As Eric submitted his proposal, his gaze lingered on Sylvester for a brief moment.Sylvester responded with a warm smile.Eric let out a soft sigh. Sylvester, the charismatic vice president of Williams Corp., possessed not just wealth but also undeniable handsomeness. Even Eric, as a man, couldn't help but find Sylvester attractive, let alone women."Everyone, please be patient while we assess the proposals," Sylvester announced, rising from his seat along with several evaluators. Their departure signified that the winning bid announcement would soon follow their return.Usual bidding processes entailed several steps, but Williams Corp. seemed to be just going through the motions. They didn't require an extensive procedure, and it wouldn't take much time for them to come to a decision.A curious glance was directed at Sylvia. "Aren't you supposed to be working?" Eric asked her quietly. It seemed she had no pressing tasks and had chosen to accompany him for the bidding."No rush,"
