2024-08-25 00:18:17“Draw the prize immediately!” Willy Morgan made his choice without hesitation. Suddenly, six gift box-like objects appeared in his mind, each one a different color and pattern. The first box had an image of some papers, the second had a drill, the third a cup of tea, the fourth a triangle, the fifth looked like a fruit, and the last one resembled a shirt.
“System, what are these?” Willy Morgan asked.
“Host, the system cannot disclose the contents. This is a lottery—you get what you draw!”
Willy Morgan understood the rules. It was a random draw, and with his recent streak of good luck—even stumbling upon a system—he felt confident that whatever he picked would be the best!
He closed his eyes and randomly pointed at one of the boxes. His finger landed on the first one, the one with the image of some papers.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have acquired 79% of the shares in Orion Universal Group Ltd.! The share transfer is in progress, please wait... Transfer complete! Please check the contract documents.”
As soon as the system finished speaking, Willy Morgan felt something solid in his hand—it was a folder!
He opened it to find detailed information about Orion Universal Group, including the company’s profile, global business scope, financial statements, personnel details, and more.
Willy Morgan’s college major was finance, but Orion Universal Group was not in his field of expertise. However, this didn’t stop Willy from planning what to do with his newly acquired company.
Or rather, from not planning. After all, the company was already running smoothly without his input. Jumping in to make changes when he had no experience in the industry would only cause unnecessary trouble.
Heather Collins, the General Manager of Orion Universal Group, was in her office going over the day’s work when her secretary suddenly burst in.
“Ms. Collins! Something’s happened!”
Heather Collins looked at her secretary, Joyce, with a hint of exasperation. “Joyce, we’ve worked together for six years. You still haven’t learned to stay calm in a crisis?”
“But Ms. Collins, this is big! An invisible tycoon has just acquired 79% of Orion Universal Group’s shares in one go! He’s now the largest shareholder and our new Chairman!”
“What!? What about the other shareholders!?”
“They had been gradually selling off their shares for a while. Now, your shares combined with those of the remaining shareholders only make up about 6%, with the other 15% still circulating in the stock market!”
Hearing Joyce’s report, Heather Collins felt a pang of panic. Orion Universal Group had been founded decades ago by her father, William Collins, along with a few partners. After she took over, she had been managing the massive company on her own. Now, in an instant, someone else had taken control! Heather Collins couldn’t believe it.
“Ms. Collins, here’s the new owner’s contact information and profile!”
Heather Collins took the paper Joyce handed her. It contained a brief introduction to Willy Morgan, but there was no information about his family background, work experience, or assets.
“22 years old!!!! Only 22! Is he some heir from a hidden wealthy family who’s bored and looking for something to do?” Heather Collins was at a loss for words.
“Joyce, you can go now. I’ll contact the new boss and see what’s going on.”
“Yes, Ms. Collins.”
Heather Collins hesitated for a long time before finally dialing the number.
“Hello? Who’s this?” Willy Morgan answered the unfamiliar call.
“Mr. Morgan, hello! I’m Heather Collins, the General Manager of Orion Universal Group. I just received word that you’ve acquired 79% of our company’s shares. I’m calling to introduce myself and to see if we can arrange a time for you to visit Orion Universal Group for an inspection?”
“Oh, that’s you! It’s pretty late today, so I won’t be able to make it. Tomorrow’s busy too, and the day after is Saturday, so you’re off. Let’s do it next week.”
“Alright, sir. May I add you on LINE? That way, I can be notified when you plan to visit, and it’ll make it easier to report to you in the future.”
“Sure, my phone number’s on it.”
“Thank you, Mr. Morgan. Sorry to disturb you! See you next week.”
Willy Morgan hung up the phone, feeling a bit bewildered. He still wasn’t used to transitioning from an ordinary person to a boss, and now he had to do inspections?
Heather Collins waited until Willy Morgan had hung up before ending the call. She took a deep breath, noting that the person on the other end of the line did indeed seem young, but he also seemed easy to talk to.
Willy Morgan checked the time on his phone again—it was almost 6 p.m., time to head out! He had plans to meet his three college roommates for dinner tonight.
He put on a new outfit, went downstairs, hailed a cab, and headed to the South American barbecue restaurant near the north gate of his old university.
As soon as he walked through the door, he spotted Brandon Rogers waving at him.
“Over here, Willy!”
Tyler Foster, sitting beside Brandon, turned around and patted Willy Morgan on the shoulder as he approached.
“Wow, Willy! That outfit—Fendi! The real deal! It must’ve cost a fortune! What’s going on with you?!” Tyler Foster was shocked.
“Yeah, Willy, you’ve got new clothes, and you’ve even changed your phone! What’s the deal? Did a rich lady take you in?” Brandon Rogers teased as he examined Willy Morgan’s new phone.
“Cut it out! I just had an epiphany!”
“What’s really going on, dude? I heard Olivia hooked up with some old guy. She even posted about it on social media!”
“Tyler, you’re not exactly tactful, are you?” Brandon Rogers shot him a look.
But Tyler Foster ignored it and kept going. “That kind of woman isn’t worth it. Seriously, over the past three years, from sophomore to senior year, you’ve worked yourself to the bone. We all saw it—you spent all your money on her, and she never appreciated you. You’ll be better off without her!”
“Exactly. I’m finally realizing that too. I broke up with her, and I’ve moved on. I spent these years working hard, and all my earnings went to her. Now, I’m going to take care of myself for a change. And, Brandon, tonight’s dinner is on me! Don’t argue! You guys have been there for me for four years. If I ever make it big, I’ll never forget you three! Where’s Patrick, by the way?”
Brandon Rogers was about to protest when Willy Morgan cut him off.
“Patrick’s stuck in traffic but says he’ll be here soon!” Tyler Foster showed them the message on LINE.

Over the weekend, Willy Morgan drove back to his old, run-down apartment, packed his belongings, and officially moved out. Standing in his now-empty room, Willy felt a wave of nostalgia. This place held so many memories—from moving out of the orphanage to working through his college years. Despite its shabby state, it had been home. Unable to completely let go, Willy spent $100,000 to buy the small unit so he could return and reminisce whenever he wanted.On Monday at noon, before Willy had a chance to visit Orion Universal Group, he received a call from Heather Collins."Mr. Morgan, our team went to Tianwen Community as planned. The residents were surprisingly eager to sell. All 117 building owners have agreed to sell, and they were so concerned we might not have enough funds that they offered to drop the price by another $50 per square meter.

"Close your eyes, focus deeply on your thoughts, and then visualize the current stock market trends in your mind. You'll see the stocks that will hit the limit-up tomorrow!" the system instructed.Willy Morgan followed the instructions, and sure enough, six stock codes appeared in his mind. He quickly noted them down on his phone, planning to compare them the next day.After chatting with the system for a while, Willy drove home. It was already late, and the stock market had closed, so he decided to visit the securities company the next day to open an account.Early the next morning, Willy went to the largest securities company in the country, opened an account, and deposited all the remaining money from his lottery winnings into it. He checked the six stocks he had predicted the day before, and to his delight, three of them had hit their limit-up at the opening, while the other three were steadily rising. This greatly boosted Willy's confidence in the system.However, since the predi

Willy Morgan looked at the group of people before him. Each of them exuded a vigorous energy. The leader, Eleanor Rodriguez, was a woman in her forties, dressed in a sharp professional outfit with a neatly tied ponytail. Her subtle makeup complemented her face, striking a balance between professionalism and youthful appearance. The three men with her, clearly bodyguards, had muscular physiques that strained against their jackets. There was a burly man with a large head and thick neck, obviously the chef, and another man in a suit with gold-rimmed glasses, carrying a box that hinted at his role as a private doctor. Beside Eleanor, there was a demure young woman, presumably the personal assistant, and a middle-aged man with a square face who looked like the chauffeur.“Mr. Morgan, as you can see, we have three personal bodyguards, this is the chef, this is the private doctor, and this is the driver. This lady is the personal assistant, and I am the housekeeper. Our annual salary is 2 mi

"Ah, Big Shot, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that! But do you think other countries might oppose this plan if we go ahead with it?" Willy asked, his tone still casual."Big Shot! Since when did you start second-guessing everything? Let them oppose it if they want! They can go find their own planets to live on, modify those planets for themselves, and figure out how to deal with asteroid impacts! We don’t need to worry about them!" Willy said with a confident smirk."Well..." Big Shot seemed hesitant, clearly uncomfortable with the boldness of Willy’s statement."You’re this old, and you’re still worried about saving face? This is the world we live in now. If I can make things happen, then I’m in charge, and everyone has to listen to me!" Willy continued, his voice firm. "Big Shot, you see me?

"So, Big Shot, what we can do right now is ensure we’re doing well, and let the others wait. And Big Shot, don’t even try to tell me you didn’t know—there was a so-called population reduction plan in the works before! If I hadn’t discovered Will Planet and managed to complete the planetary migration initiative, I think some of your big plans would have already been in progress, right?" Willy said, his voice calm but piercing."How do you know about that?" Big Shot asked, surprised by Willy's knowledge."Just a guess! There have been lots of posts and reports about it online. Every time they appeared, they were quickly deleted. I’m pretty sure if no such plans had been made, those posts wouldn’t have been created, and there wouldn’t be people quickly deleting them. So, this stuff is definitely real—it can’t be fabricated!""Sigh," Big Shot muttered. He realized he couldn’t hide anything fr

But now, if I learn more, it should be word problems. I’m really interested in that! Will the teachers teach us word problems today?""Uh... Charles, I’m sorry, but the teachers can’t teach that right now. The other kids here haven’t learned these numbers yet, so they can’t start with word problems. How about you spend some time with the teacher later to go over the numbers and reinforce what you already know?""Well, I guess I’ll accept that," Charles replied with a playful grin.At lunchtime, because of Charles’ presence, Spike added several extra dishes to the already rich menu. Charles ate a small portion, remembering what his father had taught him: to eat balanced meals to ensure proper nutrition. He knew that eating only what he liked could lead

This news made him both nervous and excited, so he immediately arranged for Charles to be placed in the best class.The top-tier Bentley slowly pulled up to the kindergarten’s gates. Willy got out first and then took Charles out of the car."Hello, hello! You must be Mr. Morgan!

The recent eruption of Mount Vesuvius had been different from previous eruptions, which had been intermittent and not particularly violent. This time, it was as if the magma had been building up for years and suddenly erupted with full force, sending plumes of lava into the sky above Europe. Within seconds, the southern coastline of Italy was covered in volcanic ash. Soon after, countless rocks and ash rained down, and within an hour, several nearby provinces were enveloped in black smoke. The ash, carried by the monsoon winds, spread to countries like Switzerland and Hungary.When Willy woke up, the news of the volcanic eruption was dominating global headlines, and his personal email had been bombarded with urgent requests for help from EU countries.Willy glanced at the messages briefly, ignoring all the ones related to the volcanic eruption, and instead focused on the important work-related emails, responding to them as needed.Ding!

They’re spending everything they make, not eating or drinking, just to send their kid to kindergarten. Doesn’t that seem expensive to you?""So, darling, are you saying that kindergarten is becoming more commercialized now? Forget about how well they actually educate the kids—just focus on flashy facilities and complex curricula to confuse parents into signing up?""Heh, pretty much!

Even though he had Wione and the others by his side, with a family as large as his—his parents, three children, his Babe, his sister, his uncle’s family, and sometimes even his secretary—it was a lot to keep track of.

Willy’s evidence was solid, and the entire world was watching, so everyone knew who was right and who was wrong.Willy glanced over at the EU representatives, a deep smile on his face. The compensation was only the first step for him. Heh, Europe was so close to his allies, the merfolk. If, in the near future, there were reports of sea monsters attacking coastal cities in the EU, it wouldn’t be his problem.Willy left the Netherlands, prepared a sufficient amount of food for the merfolk, and then piloted his aircraft to the merfolk's territory.After a brief negotiation with the merfolk, he handed over
