Chapter: 1217
To start the conference, the eight industry leaders would have to press the activation button, located in the middle of the conference table, simultaneously. This activation button was shaped like the Earth and divided into eight pieces, representing the eight regions that contributed most to the technology industry.

The conference was scheduled to start soon. Some people had even brought automated translators, and they counted down excitedly.

"Five, four, three, two�"

There was a long silence. Nothing had happened, and the attendees were visibly confused. The activation button should have been pressed by now.

"I'm sorry, everyone, I'm afraid we're experiencing some technical issues." Frederick Yarrow, the president of the Electronics Technology Association and the host of the event, suddenly announced in a panicked voice.

"Huh? Technical difficulties? What happened?"

Everyone outside the conference room was confused, and they all started discussing possible reasons for the delay. In the end, only the industry leaders would know what was happening, all� seven of them?

"As you can see, there are only seven leaders sitting here. There is still one very important member who is absent, and the piece they represent is second to H Group. Without them, we are unable to light up the button, which is why this conference cannot begin yet."

Frederick then pointed at the empty seat next to Stefan.

"The person who will join us shortly is the newest chairman of KCL, someone who has made a remarkable contribution to our industry."

Frederick inhaled deeply, then explained , "KCL is fortunate to have quite a skilled research team that constantly brings us many surprises, leading our industry to greater heights... This new chairman is a fellow researcher too, just like their predecessor , Mr. Y. This person is also the genius who invented the renowned G6 chip! Once this chip is officially introduced to the public, it will revolutionize our current industry, potentially changing everyone's lives!"

Frederick's words piqued everyone's interest, and the people there grew more and more curious about the chairman's identity. They didn't really mind that the chairman was late, considering how influential the person was, but they were worried that the chairman might not show up at all.

"President Yarrow, everything you just said is practically common knowledge at this point. We've been waiting for so long to see who this mysterious KCL chairman is, not to hear about how great they are! We hope this legend can help lead our industry to greater heights!"

" Yeah! We just want to see who this new KCL chairman is! Can't you use your position as the president to summon them here?!" Many people were starting to feel impatient, and they started pressuring Frederick.

Frederick was feeling quite anxious as he turned to the crowd. "Calm down, everyone. I've already made some calls to the new chairman of KCL. They might be busy at the moment, because they're not picking up any of my calls�"

"What? Can't you get anything right, Yarrow? As the president of the Electronics Technology Association, you should at least be able to do this much, right? If you can't, you should really consider resigning!"

"That's right, you couldn't bring over the one you were supposed to invite, and instead ended up inviting not one, but two unwelcome strays! A useless president like you should have resigned long ago!"

Frederick repeatedly dialed the new chairman's number, feeling so stressed that he was close to tears.

On the other hand, Stefan was sitting in the very middle of the conference table, looking remarkably composed. His cold gaze made it seem like he wasn't involved in this summit at all.

Next to him was Akio Higashino, a legend of Aeos who specialized in artificial intelligence. The man was the third most influential individual in the room, after Stefan and the new KCL chairman. JrNovels.com
