"Did I really win? $10 million?"Ryan stared at his phone in disbelief, reading the prize notification sent by TikToc. He could hardly believe his own eyes!$10 million! That's enough to buy a house, a car, bring his parents back to live with him so they don't have to work away from home, and attract girls by dressing sharp from head to toe!With $10 million, he could finally lift his family out of poverty. And it just fell into his lap through sheer luck? Just like that? It felt like a dream! Did he really wake up a millionaire overnight? Or was he still dreaming?"Ding!"Before Ryan could doubt himself further, his phone chimed with a bank transfer notification, shattering his disbelief."1, 2...6, 7!"His face flushed crimson with excitement as his body trembled uncontrollably. Unable to restrain the scalding blood rushing through his veins, he threw back his head and let out a roar:"Yes! It really is $10 million! With 7 zeros! I'm rich now! I can finally end my family's poverty!"

Whether or not Marcus and Liam Wells sold their shares, Evan didn't care. If they sold, he would acquire them and merge YouClub into Tiktok, creating Elysia's largest live streaming platform. The Wells, lacking shares, would get no dividends.If they refused, Evan would let YouClub go bankrupt. The Wells would still get nothing, just with extra steps of restructuring. YouClub would remain Evan's while the Wells reaped no benefits.The outcome was the same either way. This was no contest of equals but a heavyweight boxer versus an infant - a complete mismatch!With the second task mostly accomplished, Evan moved on to the third group. Their actions came last by design. Evan wanted staggered timing to maximize resources. More importantly, he wanted these celebrity headliners generating excitement over weeks or months, sustaining Tiktok's newfound popularity.Yet Tiktok exceeded Evan's expectations!The sensational events, amplified overnight by the internet, had already catalyzed into

They nearly crumpled to the floor as his words struck them like a physical blow.Mr. Smith bought YouClub shares? Took over that vicious shark?When had this happened? Wasn't yesterday's market turmoil caused by a mystery buyer?It was Mr. Smith's scheme all along?Unbelievable! He's an absolute savior!Just yesterday Tiktok's future seemed bleak. Now they led two top platforms!A rollercoaster ride! Thrilling yet terrifying!"You're YouClub's chairman now, Mr. Smith?" Adam ventured anxiously."Correct. I don't discuss uncertain matters. Now that it's settled, I tell you. Take over YouClub starting today." Evan said matter-of-factly."Mr. Smith, you're rich!""So handsome!""..."Tears of gratitude flowed as everyone profusely thanked Evan. Everyone except Sean, who turned red struggling to squeeze out: "Mr. Smith, badass!" Adam, Devin, Landon, Matthew and the others just gaped.Evan was rather speechless."Please, just manage the companies diligently. I won't be too involved in deci

"Whoosh!" The apartment's curtains were drawn shut, and the intense gaming ceased. Every computer screen lit up with the familiar interfaces of hacking software, and rows of green digital code began to leap across the screens.At that very moment, in a posh villa within the third ring of Elysia Metropolis City, Liam Wells of YouClub was groveling before a tall young man."Mr. Perez, I truly need your help this time. I acted on your advice, and overnight YouClub changed hands!""Mr. Perez," Liam continued, "as far as I know, that upstart is named Jesse Smith. Just a nouveau riche. But your family's influence is vast and deeply rooted in Metropolis City. Dealing with him should be as easy as lifting a finger for you.""That country bumpkin can't compare to a noble like Mr. Perez. Help me reclaim YouClub, and you can name your terms. I swear I'll agree to anything!"The tall youth opened his arrogant eyes slowly, rising from the sofa and looking down upon Liam Wells with disdain, "Anythi

Perhaps truly unable to stand Evan's laziness any longer, after about ten minutes of silence, the system suddenly assigned a task with a rather high difficulty rating:"Ding! Host now has housing, vehicles, and a successful career. You've entered the ranks of life's winners. To avoid idleness, your eighth task is: In one month, do something that impacts 1 billion people. Success will award 300 Super Rich Coins, failure results in loss of male virility! The countdown for this task starts now!"For the first time, the normally emotionless voice of the system took on a tone - naked contempt! It really looked down on Evan's laziness!Whatever! What's so bad about being lazy? Really! Evan shrugged with an unconcerned smile. "Do something that impacts 1 billion people? Hehe, did you forget, system? Money is unlimited during task attempts. I'll just go to my livestreaming company now and send out a message selecting 1 billion people, giving each one $100 million. That would also be a shocki
