Chapter 338 The Establishment of StarTech Co. Ltd.
The affairs of the Wrights had settled down.
Many organizations and individuals had been exposed during this period. Now, these chess pieces had been removed from the game one by one.
"So what should we do now?” someone in the shadows said in a deep voice.
A person suggested coldly, "Those that have been exposed can only be abandoned. However, our relationship with them mustn’t be exposed. Besides, everybody should stay put and not do anything after this, at least for a short period of time. Protecting ourselves is our utmost priority now."
"Then we shall just watch the Wrights continue to shine in their glory?"
"What's the hurry? When the time comes, I will still own a piece that hasn’t been moved yet! By then... He h e he."
Faint scoffs echoed in the room, and the scene could send chills down one's spine. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
The Wrights did not know that a new conspiracy was secretly being brewed, so the atmosphere in their mansion was cheerful.
"All of you, I was wondering why you sent me to the suburbs for vacation all of a sudden! It turns out that a big incident took place in the family, and you were hiding it from the old man, huh?" A furious old man was talking at the top of his lungs.
"Oh grandpa, we were afraid that you would be worried." Anna stuck her tongue out.
"That doesn't mean that you should lie to me!" Pawpaw Clark raised his voice.
"It's our bad. We will not hide anything from you next time." Serenity promised with a smile.
Anna and Serenity were sitting next to Pawpaw Clark, one on each side of him, and kept talking nicely to console him.
Pawpaw Clark wasn't really pissed. Therefore, he put a n end to his temper tantrum immediately after being comforted by the two ladies.
He looked at Susan, and a hint of tenderness flashed through his eyes. “Susie, come here, girl."
Susan responded by approaching him.
Pawpaw Clark's eyes were emotional as he held Susan's hands. "It's been 25 years. I didn’t expect that I'd live to witness your return. It’s a pity that Anthony i s not with us anymore, or I can only imagine how glad he would have been now. He wanted a granddaughter so much."
The Anthony Pawpaw Clark had just mentioned was George Wright's father.
When George’s father was mentioned, everybody stayed silent for a while and looked a little downcast.
"Now, let's not talk about that anymore. Old people just love nagging others so much." Pawpaw Clark patted Susan's hands and said amiably, "This old chap doesn’t have much to give you, so TH give you a book."
Pawpaw Clark asked the servant to bring forward a box and open it. A dozen notebooks were neatly arranged in the box.
"Thanks, grandpa.” Susan thanked him first. When she looked at the books, the look in her eyes changed suddenly.
"Grandpa, these books..." Susan was a little unsure.
"Yes. These are the manuscripts of Jean-Michel Frank." Pawpaw Clark sighed. "Jean was the pioneer o f the minimalist interior design style. These books contain all his manuscripts."
"This gift is too precious!" Susan could not help but exclaim.
Its practical significance aside, its historical value was immeasurable.
"I'm just an old man. I only own a bunch of books on every subject. If you don’t accept it, you will be looking down on me."
"But..." Susan hesitated.
"Sis, just take it. Grandpa has a lot of unique copies, so
I often go to him for books to read," Anna said with a grin.
"You come looking for books? More like you ruin them. I'm going to say it once more: You’re not allowed in my study from now on." Pawpaw Clark seemed to have recalled something, and a hint of pain was visible on his face for a split second.
Anna stuck her tongue out, not daring to speak anymore.
Susan chuckled and did not pester Pawpaw Clark further about this idea. She put the box away and said wholeheartedly, "I'll definitely go through them comprehensively, Grandpa. I'll never let Jean's brainchild go to waste."
When Susan spoke so solemnly, a trace of relief flashed in Pawpaw Clark's eyes. He then stated," Speaking of design, there are still plenty of other ancient manuscripts in my place. I didn't know whether they would be of use to you, but if you really like them, you can always come to my study and find them yourself."
Ancient manuscripts?
Susan’s eyes radiated with a desirous beam immediately. "Can I? For real?"
"As long as you don't spill tea on them like Anna did, you are welcome to read or borrow them from my study," Pawpaw Clark asserted.
"My God, there you go again, Grandpa. I already said that I didn’t do it on purpose." Anna quickly defended herself.
"Hmph! In short, from now on, the study will be out of bounds for you.” Pawpaw Clark glared at Anna.
"But grand...”
While Pawpaw Clark and Anna were talking, Susan was hugging the box with beams shooting out of her eyes.
If the time had been right, she really would have opened the books now to take a good look at them.
These were the manuscripts of Jean-Michel Frank!
By reading the manuscripts, she would be able to see Jean's design techniques, which would give her a lot o f inspiration.
Recently, Susan had been feeling that the level of her designs had reached a bottleneck. These manuscripts might just be the key to moving past this bottleneck.
“Susie, this is the key to the study. Just ask the servants to show you the way when you want to go there." Luna passed Susan a key while smiling from ear to ear.
"Thanks, mom,” Susan responded.
Although it was not the first time she heard the title ' mother' being used, Luna's eyes would still warm up slightly every time the word came out of Susan's mouth.
She then looked out of the window.
George and Oliver were sparing again.
While Anna and Serenity were coquetting with Pawpaw Clark, Susan and Julian were looking at each other affectionately.
Life... was perfect.
Luna smiled and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch with the servants.
After all these ups and downs, the days in Skyking City were now quiet and serene.
Susan was obsessed with the study and ran into it on a daily basis.
Seth brought the team to Skyking City after handling the follow-up in Ningcheng City, and Jacob and he were now leading a hectic life here.
Seth and Jacob planned to build their own cell phone brand based on their system.
Electronic equipment manufacturing was totally different from system production. The main income of a system was based on the sales of its copyright. The cost was minimal, but the profit was lucrative. It was simple and clear.
When it came to electronic products, pre-production investment, peri-production creativity and manufacturing, and post-production marketing and sales were all major factors.
Seth had no experience in this area and had completely no idea where to start. Jacob was only in charge of technology and did not know anything about business startups.
Julian could not stand watching these two struggle, so he gave them some pointers here and there. As a result, the company was set up by the three of them.
After Julian got onboard, everything went so much smoother and moved so much faster. One month later, StarTech Co. Ltd. was established officially in Skyking City.
Julian was in charge of its operation, Seth was in charge of publicity, and Jacob was all over the technology.
The trio held 55 percent of the total shares, while the other 45 percent was put out there to attract new capital and investors.
StarTech Co. Ltd. was running in an orderly manner. When Julian was just about to tighten the final screws in the pre-startup process, Madam Shaw called.
"Julian, shouldn't you be coming back already? Susie i s about to enter her second trimester. If this drags on, i t will be inconvenient for her to travel long distances.”
