Getting A System In A Modern World - Chapter 75 Unwanted Requests, Going Back Home

75  Unwanted Requests, Going Back Home

After the call ended, Silas turned his attention to the next important thing.

“LUNAR, give me update on ELLA.”

[After the release, everything has been moving smoothly. ELLA has gained a massive amount of popularity and now has a daily users base of more than 230,000 users.

We have received positive reviews from people on social media platforms and tech critics.]

Silas nodded when he heard what LUNAR said, as everything was within his expectations.

Unlike the previous ELLA that was an ordinary AI, the current ELLA is an AGI on the same level as LUNAR.

But unlike LUNAR who is a multipurpose AI, ELLA is an AI created for the sole purpose of creating AIs that will be used as person assistant for devices.

In addition to ELLA’s massively improved database and the ability which is complemented with the quantum computer’s extraordinary computing power, it would be extremely disappointing if such a result was not achieved.

“Anything else?,” Silas asked.

{Yes. We have also been receiving messages from different companies wth different contents.}

Silas’ eyes narrowed when he heard this.

“What’s the name of the companies and content of their messages?”

{I have divided the companies, their messages and its content into three categories.

The first are those that want to buy out the company and acquire ELLA’s technology.

The second are those who wants to invests in our company, and the last category is those that seeking to partner with us.

Companies in the second and last category are far in between, and it’s filled with small start-up companies and companies that are looking for breakthrough technology to the into the AI sector. Companies in these two categories are DataDawg, Monoliths Power System, Automata Data Processing….

The first category consists of majority of the world’s top and most popular companies, like Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Meta, Samsung, Alphabet.}

Silas smiled when he saw this. He already knew that they will come running but he didn’t expect it to be so soon.

“LUNAR, decline all of their requests. We don’t need their investment, neither do we need their partnership. Same is with those in the first category,” Silas said, immediately making his decision.

There was definitely no way he will accept investment from other as he doesn’t want any individual or organization from benefitting from him, or being in the way of his future company decision making.

For those that wants to acquire ELLA for themselves, that was even more impossible as Silas doesn’t plan on selling, not now or in the farthest future.

“Is that all?,” Silas asked.

{No.}

Silas nodded and started thinking of his next plans.

“Now that I think of it, the last batch of buildings should be ready by now. Two weeks has passed already,” Silas said, and picked up his phone to call Mr Brandon to ask about the buildings’ availability status. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Hello, Mr Silas. I have actually been trying to contact you but I’m always sent to voicemail whenever I call,” A depressed and happy Mr Brandon’s voice was heard.

…

Mr Brandon has been feeling very worried and frustrated lately.

The buildings that Silas asked for, were now available and for a while now, he has been trying to contact Silas to inform him, but whenever he calls, he’s always sent to voicemail.

He called the real estate attorney to tell him of the situation and ask him to contact Silas but he was disappointed to find out that the real estate attorney was experiencing the same thing.

Mr Brandon didn’t know of any other possible method to contact Silas, and he was already at his wit’s end, and that was when he saw Silas’ call and he felt an indescribable level of happiness.

…

Silas smiled at Mr Brandon’s words as he knew the response why Mr Brandon has been unable to contact him is because his phone was on airplane mode during his cultivation session in the island.

“I have been very busy lately. I guess that’s why you have been unable to contact me,” Silas said, giving the possible explanation he could give. Not that it was needed anyway but he just felt like doing it.

“I understand, Mr Silas. Someone of your status will always be busy with something,” Mr Brandon replied.

He knew that he couldn’t fault Silas. Why should he faults his golden goo – cough, his biggest client.

“Mr Silas, the buildings are ready and their documents has been received by your attorney, all that’s needed is your signature,” Mr Brandon said.

“What’s the cost and details of their evaluation?,” Silas asked.

This was the most important part as the higher the evaluation ofnthe buildings, the quicker he finishes his mission.

“This batch consists of a total of ten buildings, with a total cost of $1,659,730,000 and a total evaluation of $659,670,000.

Just like I told you before the buildings became available, this batch is very expensive. Though their evaluation is low compared to the previous batches, you can take the fact that they are located in very popular and bustling areas,” Mr Brandon said, explaining to Silas the details of the buildings’ cost and evaluation.

Silas initially frowned when he heard this cost of the buildings, but it straightened and turn into a smile, when he saw the total evaluation of the buildings.

Due to Silas’ humble upbringing, he has always been scrutinous of his spending, making sure he doesn’t spend unnecessarily more than necessary, except when he knows that it would definitely benefit him.

This didn’t change even with the presence of the system, but this time is different.

‘$1.6 billion? Even if it’s $10 billion, I’m willing to buy them as long as they help me complete the mission faster.’

Silas’ mentality has changed a lot since the island incident. The Silas right now won’t mind spending even more for the buildings.

“Thank you, MR Brandon. I will sign the documents and make the purchase soon.”

“Ok. Another thing, Mr Silas. We are still unable to get the island with your desired specifications,” Mr Brandon, who was about to hang up, suddenly said.

“It’s okay. You no longer need to worry about it. I will also send you the compensation for your work. Thank you very much,” Silas replied.

After coming from Venezuela, it skipped his mind or he would have call Mr Brandon and told him to stop his search for an island.

Mr Brandon was happy when he heard that Silas would still be sending the compensation, and he was anxiously looking forward to it.

Mr Brandon immediately hung up after that, as he didn’t want to disturb Silas any further.

‘I guess I will have to make a trip back home to sign the buildings’ documents, so that I can complete the mission. I also need to meet with Kim and know her progress on her recruitment of staffs for the office.

I also shouldn’t forget the game.’

Silas could have called Kim but he decided against it. He felt that there was no need for it as he would be going home very soon.

‘I will move our base of operations to Venezuela when I’m done cleaning it up and it’s completely safe for me and my family.’

“LUNAR, make arrangements. I’m going back to Oakland.”

{Yes sir.}

Immediately, Silas stood up and left his room and the hotel, and made his way to the airport.
