Building The Strongest Family-Chapter 119: Annual Meeting [ 1 ]
Chapter 119: Annual Meeting [ 1 ]
The glass doors of the Osborn Holdings Executive Conference Hall.slid open with a near-silent hiss, unveiling a vast space that felt more like a throne room than a typical corporate meeting area.
A colossal obsidian table spanned the length of the hall, its surface polished to such a mirror-like sheen that it reflected the vaulted ceiling soaring fifty feet above.
Holographic projectors hummed softly along the walls, casting the Osborn sigil,a silver phoenix encircled by nine stars, into midair, where it rotated gracefully.
At the head of this impressive table sat Arthur, his fingers steepled and sharp blue eyes scanning the room as various presidents of the Osborn Empire filed in.
Dressed in a tailored black suit with no tie and an undone top button, he exuded an air of calculated control rather than carelessness.
To his right was Margaret, the iron-willed matriarch of Osborn Holdings, adjusting her reading glasses while her silver-streaked hair was pulled back into a severe bun.
To his left sat Julian from Osborn Technology, casually spinning a prototype neural chip between his fingers like it was just another coin.
One by one, other leaders took their seats: Nathaniel from Real Estate, Richard from Supply Chain, Emily from Media,Ashley from Fashion, and brothers Edward and William from Mining among others,the elite circle driving the resurgence of the Osborn legacy.
As Arthur surveyed those gathered around him, emotions flickered in his eyes. It had been almost a year since he found himself transmigrated into this world,a bewildering experience at first that felt utterly unscientific.
The weight of leading a family on the brink of bankruptcy had been daunting; anyone else in his position would have felt just as uneasy.
Yet here he stood today,having resurrected not only their fortunes but even surpassed previous heights,all thanks to hard work and... well, let’s not forget about that little system helping him along!
Shaking off those thoughts with a slight nod to himself, Arthur cleared his throat. Instantly, silence fell over the room as all eyes turned toward him.
"Everyone," he began with conviction, "just months ago our family was teetering on bankruptcy and drowning in debt. But look at us now! We’ve turned things around dramatically,we’ve not only survived but thrived! This success is truly due to each one of you."
With renewed energy filling the room, he continued: "As we approach year-end evaluations, it’s time for annual reports. Uncle Julian,why don’t you kick things off?"
Julian stood up with an easy smile for everyone before diving straight into business mode.
With a swift motion of his hand, he activated the table’s central holographic display,summoning an expansive financial dashboard hovering above its obsidian surface.
Julian stood up, a confident smile playing on his lips as he surveyed the room.
Without wasting any time, he dove straight into the heart of the matter.
With a swift swipe of his hand, he activated the table’s central holographic display, conjuring a massive financial dashboard that floated above the sleek obsidian surface.
Let’s talk about Osborn Technology" he began, his voice brimming with quiet satisfaction, like a captain who had just conquered uncharted waters.
"Though we were only established a few months ago, we’ve made remarkable strides in that short time."
He expanded the first data cluster, revealing a stunning 3D render of the Spectra S phone,a sleek, obsidian-black device boasting an almost bezel-less holographic display.
"Launch date: Five months ago," Julian announced proudly. "Profit margin? A staggering 70%!"
With another tap, sales figures cascaded across the display like confetti at a celebration.
"Total units sold: 287 million."
A ripple of astonishment swept through the audience. In a world of 100 billion people, that was an impressive market penetration in such little time!
"Revenue from Spectra S alone stands at an eye-watering 1.148 trillion Unicreds," Julian continued, his smirk widening. "And net profit? A cool 803.6 billion Unicreds."
He paused for effect before adding with flair, "For context,that’s more than Panterra’s entire mobile division made last month!"
Arthur leaned forward and tapped once against the table, curiosity etched on his face. "What about our market share?"
Julian swiped again; this time, a pie chart materialized on screen,Osborn captured 34% of the Aurelian Federation’s premium smartphone market and 2% of Panterra’s market share.
"We overtook VexCorp in just three months," he declared confidently. "By Q1 next year? We’ll be sitting pretty at 50% in Aurelian Federation and aiming for 5% in Panterra." freeweɓnovel.cøm
Next came a dynamic cutaway animation showcasing their revolutionary battery technology.
"Adoption rate: an impressive 92% among all major OEMs," Julian explained enthusiastically. "Units shipped? A whopping 1.4 billion! Revenue generated: 42 billion Unicreds."
His eyes sparkled with excitement as he added, "But here’s where it gets interesting: every Spectra S sold locks those manufacturers into our ecosystem. Want our battery? They play by our rules!"
The hologram shifted again to reveal their thumbnail-sized processor.
"We’ve secured flagship contracts with seven of the top ten tech firms, 640 million units shipped at an average price of 85 Unicreds per chip."
Leaning forward with palpable enthusiasm, he concluded, "Total revenue from this venture alone is projected at 54.4 billion Unicreds, and we’ve just inked an exclusive deal with the Eastern Dominion’s military next-gen drones".
" Total Osborn Tech revenue this year: 2.1 trillion. Profit: 1.47 trillion." Julian sat back with a smile and said,"Next year’s target: 5 trillion."
The room was silent for a beat,then Margaret slowly began to applaud. One by one, the others joined.
"Good, good,good," Arthur also clapped, his eyes flashing with satisfaction.
A few moments later, the applause faded as Arthur turned to Nathaniel with a grin. "Alright, second uncle, you’re up next!"
The conference room fell into an expectant hush as Nathaniel stood and approached the obsidian table.
Unlike Julian’s flashy holograms that dazzled the eye, Nathaniel opted for a more grounded approach.
He placed a thick folder on the table and flipped it open, revealing an array of blueprints, land surveys, and progress reports.
"Good afternoon everyone," he began, his voice calm and authoritative. "Osborn Real Estate and Construction Group has been entrusted with the largest government infrastructure project in Panterra’s history, developing a staggering 1.08 million square kilometers of land! Our mission?
To construct roads, bridges, utilities, and foundational work that will transform this raw territory into vibrant, functional communities."
He slid a detailed progress report across the table for all to see. "As of today, we are at 68% completion," he continued confidently. "By next June, we will have this project wrapped up."
Nathaniel then flipped through another set of documents as he elaborated on various indicators and milestones in construction.
The room was captivated; every ear was tuned in to his insights.
Moments later, he produced another set of documents with enthusiasm. "And right at the heart of this expansive government land lies our crown jewel, a 10,000-square-kilometer parcel destined to become the Osborn Grand Blue Pearl Plaza!
This will be a super mega-scale commercial and economic hub like nothing the Aurelian Federation has ever witnessed!"
With that declaration, he laid out stunning plans and blueprints for the commercial plaza while explaining its anticipated impact on local commerce.
After wrapping up his presentation with flair, Arthur leaned forward eagerly. "What’s the current status of the commercial plaza?" he asked.
Nathaniel replied without missing a beat: "We’re currently at 45% completion! Just like our government project timeline, both will be finished by next June!"
"Fantastic!" Arthur nodded approvingly. While Osborn Real Estate and Construction Group hadn’t generated revenue yet this year,a common reality in real estate, he felt optimistic about what lay ahead.
After all, real estate often has long revenue cycles; Arthur firmly believed that by next year, they would start seeing significant returns.
Nathaniel glanced around the room, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm as he waved his hand over the holographic table. Instantly, vibrant screens lit up, showcasing a wealth of data.
"Alright, everyone! While Osborn Real Estate and Construction Group may not have seen profits this year, I assure you that next year is going to be a game-changer," Nathaniel declared confidently, gesturing towards the dazzling displays. "Let’s dive into our ambitious targets for the upcoming year!"
He made eye contact with each person in the room before continuing, "We’re gearing up to build luxurious mansions, stunning villas, gated communities, and high-end living apartments all across the country!"
With a swift swipe of his hand across the holographic screen, he added, "Once we launch the Grand Plaza by June next year, our focus will shift to expanding our residential offerings."
"First on our agenda: Osborn Estates, an exclusive collection of ultra-luxury mansions featuring 500 custom-built villas ranging from 1 to 5 acres in every major first- and second-tier city. Think private security, underground garages, and smart-home automation! Our target buyers? Billionaires, corporate elites, and influential political figures."
He paused for effect before unveiling more exciting plans. "Next up: Skyview Towers! We’ll introduce 20,000 high-end apartments equipped with rooftop gardens and infinity pools. Each unit will come with private concierge services and will be priced at a cool 5 million Unicreds and up."
"And let’s not forget about our waterfront residences, exclusive lakeside and coastal properties complete with private docks, beach access, and helipads!"
"Projected revenue from these first-phase sales? A staggering 12 trillion Unicreds!"
Nathaniel scanned the room once more; a smile crept onto his face as he noticed everyone captivated by his vision for the future.
