Fusion Wants To Clap
CHAPTER THIRTY ONE: FUSION WANTS TO CLAPpeople where surprised The headlines didn’t sleep.WILD EXECUTIVE IMPREGNATES HIGH-PROFILE CLIENT — INTERNAL FALLOUT LOOMSCLARA M—SPEAKS OUT: “I WON’T BE SILENCED.”IS WILD UNSAFE FOR WOMEN?Every blog, every news station, every business podcast—everyone was tearing into Wild. And Fusion, ever the predator in the mist, didn’t miss a beat. Their communications team didn’t have to lift a finger; the story was writing itself.The scandal had hit exactly where Jude feared:His company’s trust.Its internal culture.Its ability to maintain its clean, elite, futuristic brand image.And while Wild’s legal and PR teams scrambled, Fusion’s CEO—Leo, young, sharp, charismatic—stood in a glass-walled boardroom in their Paris headquarters, watching the chaos unfold from a distance like a general watching a rival army fall into a sinkhole.Dave stood beside him, hands behind his back.“Wild looks vulnerable,” Dave said simply.Leo tilted his head. “Vulner
The Golf Empire Move
⭐ CHAPTER THIRTY TWO:THE GOLF EMPIRE MOVEThe sports journalists were still exhausted from Fusion’s NPL takeover when the next shockwave hit the media world.It began as a rumor—too wild to be believed.“Fusion is buying a European golf franchise.”“A luxury one.”“Television rights included.”Analysts dismissed it at first.Fusion had just closed an enormous football acquisition; companies usually waited months before another major move.Fusion was not "companies."Fusion was a hurricane wearing a tailored suit.And Leo was the eye of the storm.THE DEAL OF A CENTURYThree days after the NPL announcement, news broke like lightning:FUSION ACQUIRES ROYAL CREST INTERNATIONAL GOLF LEAGUE — HISTORIC PURCHASE SHOCKS EUROPEIt wasn’t just a club.It was an entire league—a golden empire of prestige, aristocracy, and international tournaments televised across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.Royal Crest had been owned by an old, aristocratic family—one that swore they would never sell.But
When Country Takes Sides
CHAPTER THIRTY THREE:WHEN THE COUNTRY TAKES SIDESFusion’s double-strike takeover didn’t just dominate the business world—It divided the entire country like a national election.Sports fans, business analysts, celebrities, universities—everyone had an opinion.For the first time since the twins went separate ways, the entire nation chose sides not in silence, but publicly.Team FusionBacked by football fans, international investors, athletes, celebrities, and patriotic supporters.They saw Fusion as a bold force—young, daring, revolutionary.Team WildBacked by tech communities, youth-driven platforms, innovation lovers, and those who disliked corporate giants absorbing everything.It was no longer a company rivalry.It was culture war.And Fusion had the momentum.THE DOCUMENTARY THAT SHIFTED EVERYTHINGThree days after the golf acquisition, a highly influential sports media channel aired a special documentary:“The Fusion Takeover: A New Era for Sports”It was flashy, cinematic, e
What Will Wild Do
CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR:WHAT WILL WILD DO POLITICS, POWER, AND PRESSUREFusion’s rapid rise created a new force in the corporate landscape—one too large for the government to ignore.When a single company buys an NPL giant and an international golf league within a week, politicians lose sleep. Economists panic. Regulators whisper. Rival companies strategize emergency responses.Fusion had become a tidal wave.And waves always reach the capital.THE GOVERNMENT REQUESTS A MEETINGTwo days after the Fusion documentary hit its tenth million view, the Ministry of Commerce sent an official letter:“Fusion executives are requested for a formal discussion concerning the company’s recent expansion activities.”Dave read the letter first.He knew what it meant.He handed it to Leo.Leo read it without blinking.“They’re afraid,” he said calmly.“Or cautious,” Dave replied.Leo placed the paper on the table.“Either way… we’ll show them Fusion is not a threat. We’re an opportunity.”Dave exhaled
Fusion Surge Into Global Sport
CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE:Fusion’s Surge into Global Sports. For weeks, the business world buzzed with nonstop chatter, speculation, and sharp-edged predictions about the rivalry between Fusion and Wild. After the Clara scandal and the sudden shift in Wild’s internal culture, analysts had expected Fusion to remain modest, maybe quietly expand or simply hold their ground while Wild struggled to clean up the public relations mess. But Dave had no interest in modest moves.He wanted a spectacle — one big enough to shake markets, dominate global headlines, and redirect attention entirely in Fusion’s direction.The first shockwave came when Fusion bought an entire NPL football club outright. No one had seen it coming. The move wasn’t teased. There were no rumors, no business leaks, no “insider whispers” on social media. One morning, the club played under its historic colors, and by evening, press headlines flashed:“Fusion Acquires Riverside NPL Club — A New Era Begin
Wild Moves Into Money
CHAPTER THIRTY SIX— Wild Moves Into MoneyWild had been backed into a corner, and everyone inside the company felt it.Fusion’s expansion into sports had rattled global markets and shifted public attention almost entirely away from Wild. Every headline, every trending topic, and every business report seemed to orbit around Fusion’s sudden rise.But Jude — CEO of Wild — was not the type of man who surrendered ground. He had climbed too far, survived too many storms, and taken too many risks to allow Fusion’s newest strategies to overshadow everything he had built. Behind closed doors, he was brewing a counter-move powerful enough to shake industries far beyond sports.He wanted Wild to evolve.Not sideways.Upwards.And that meant entering a sector even more influential than technology or athletic sponsorships.Banking.The idea came to Jude during a midnight strategy session, long after his board had gone home and the building had quieted. He stood alone by his office window, watching
Wilss Bank plc
CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN— WILSS BANK PLC The momentum Wild needed finally began to form. Project Atlas, once just a confidential idea scribbled in Jude’s head, had become a living, moving organism inside the company—an organism that breathed urgency and ambition. The headquarters, once weighed down by Fusion’s constant dominance, now pulsed with something almost forgotten: Hope. But success attracted scrutiny. Two days after clearing the European pre-approval stage, the media began connecting scattered clues. A financial journalist from The Global Ledger published a speculative article hinting Wild was preparing to enter the banking sector. In less than six hours, the headline spread across continents. “Wild Is Quietly Building a Banking Infrastructure — Is This the Next Financial Revolution?” Jude read the article in his office, slowly tapping his fingers on the desk. The journalist had no proof—but the speculation alone was dangerous. Fusion responded within hours.
Wilss Banking Ambition
CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT— Wilss Banking Ambition Wild’s headquarters felt different now. The air wasn’t tense… it was heavy, loaded with the pressure of ambition bigger than any product launch or corporate rivalry. Building a bank—a real financial institution—was no longer just a dream tossed around during late-night strategy sessions. It was a roadmap. A timetable. A battle plan. And at the center of it all stood Wild’s CEO, board, and the newly expanded strategic team trying to figure out how a tech company would step boldly into a sector where giants had dominated for hundreds of years.The idea had first appeared in the form of a question: “What do people trust more than their phones?”The response was unanimous: “Their money.”So the next question became: “What if their money lived inside Wild?”That was the spark.Now came the fire. The Blueprint Nobody ExpectedThe plan began with research—global, exhaustive, expensive. Wild hired analysts from London, risk evaluators from Dubai,
Wilss Banking Forge
CHAPTER THIRTY NINE— Wilss Banking Forge The boardroom at Wild HQ was never quiet, but this morning felt like something else—something heavier, sharper. A cold tension sat beneath every breath as executives took their places, screens lit, documents loaded, and reports prepared. The WildBank project had reached a new stage—one that demanded more than planning and innovation. It required resilience. Leo entered last, holding a tablet glowing with analytics from overnight. Behind him walked two new advisors—former central bank regulators Wild had recently hired to ensure everything met strict financial standards. Their presence alone showed how serious WildBank had become. On the main screen displayed a headline: “Fusion Expands into Global Sports Investments—A Strategic Diversion?” Fusion’s moves were getting louder, bolder, noisier by the minute. First the NPL team, then the golf franchise, and now rumors of a basketball club acquisition. Their aim was clear: create a media s
Wilss Banking?
CHAPTER FOUTY — Wilss Banking? A stormy evening settled over the city. Rain struck the glass windows of Wild HQ like a restless code stream—constant, echoing, rhythmic. But inside, the energy didn’t dim. It intensified. Wild wasn’t just building a bank; Wild was attempting something that hadn’t been done in decades—creating a global financial ecosystem from a tech foundation. The world had its eyes on them. Regulators whispered. Banks watched with suspicion. Fusion watched with resentment. And inside that storm, three names shaped Wild’s fate: Leo, Frenshikini, and Clara. The Blueprint Room Underneath Wild HQ, the restricted-access Blueprint Room hummed with subdued electricity. It held the entire architectural skeleton of WildBank—server maps, compliance ladders, risk matrices, failover tunnels, and encrypted recovery methods. Leo entered with two cybersecurity analysts and a financial architect. Frenshikini was already inside, sitting on the floor between two g
