Building The Strongest Family-Chapter 64: Progress
After the audition, Arthur wasted no time. He swiftly exited the company to tackle other pressing matters across various enterprises.
Time seemed to slip away like sand through fingers, and before he knew it, half a month had flown by. In that brief period, significant changes unfolded within the Osborn family.
The once-familiar dynamics had transformed; now, they were a force to be reckoned with in Neo-Luminara, their influence and fame spreading far and wide.
What really made the Osborn Family quite famous is the upcoming commercial plaza! When Nathaniel first unveiled the promotional video to Arthur, little did they know it would ignite a media frenzy.
The next day, it was broadcasted across multiple platforms, especially on channels owned by his second aunt Emily's media company.
Owning a media empire has its perks; news travels fast!
The promotional video went viral in Neo-Luminara and even garnered national attention.
Discussions buzzed online as people marveled at what could become the largest commercial plaza in the Aurelian Federation if completed.
Construction began at an astonishing pace, within just half a month, they had already dug and laid the foundation for the entire plaza! Even Arthur was taken aback by how quickly things were progressing.
Though he knew from system mall data that construction could be completed within a year, witnessing such rapid advancement firsthand was still shocking.
Meanwhile, government projects like transportation networks were nearing completion thanks to Osborn Technology's contributions.
Railways, highways, and interchanges were being constructed throughout Neo-Luminara with remarkable efficiency. What remained was simply branching out these networks into selected cities.
One project that particularly excited Arthur was the HyperRail-X Express train initiative spearheaded by Osborn Heavy Industries.
Construction on these trains had begun, with each one expected to take just two months to build,a speed made possible due to Arthur providing crucial technologies and designs upfront.
With materials sourced from their own supply chain thanks to Osborn Supply Chain Group's efficiency, there was no need for external suppliers.
Additionally, during this whirlwind of activity over the past month, all sectors under the Osborn umbrella experienced rapid growth:
Osborn Media & Entertainment Group kicked off casting for both Titanic and John Wick.
After Mary won the theme song audition, recording is nearly complete,the debut track will launch alongside their new music streaming app called Harmonix.
Osborn Technology made strides in mobile phone development and chip production,Arthur didn't have to worry here; this sector boasted some of their most talented tech minds.
Osborn Heavy Industries not only focused on train manufacturing but also accelerated car development using data provided by Arthur, saving them tons of time!
The Osborn Mining and Resource Group has been incredibly busy lately, and for good reason!
Almost all the materials needed to construct cars, trains, and the commercial plaza come from their extensive mining operations.
Just a few months ago, after Arthur completed an advanced system upgrade and his family leveled up to Level 2, he was rewarded with several exciting prizes,five of which provided him with crucial future intel.
Among these were the locations of high-purity crude oil, copper, and iron mines.
The crude oil mine alone is estimated to hold around 10 million barrels! With this valuable information in hand, the Osborn Mining team has been hard at work extracting these precious resources.
But that's not all! Thanks to Evolon's astonishing computing power, Arthur has also identified various locations rich in precious ores, metals, natural gas, and more across the Aurelia continent.
All industries under Arthur's family umbrella are progressing smoothly.
Particularly noteworthy is the Osborn Pharmaceutical and Biotech sector,one that holds a special place in Arthur's heart.
He knows that capturing just 10% of this market could yield staggering profits worth trillions of Unicreds annually in a world like Panterra.
The leadership team at Osborn Pharmaceutical consists entirely of individuals Arthur acquired from the system mall, from the CEO down to department heads,all selected for their unwavering loyalty.
Arthur is keenly aware of how vital this industry is to him; thus, he ensured that all high-level positions are filled by those loyal to him, no room for betrayal here!
For other ventures such as the Osborn Intercontinental Hotel Group and Osborn Restaurant Group, he chose competent family members to lead them.
These industries often have longer development cycles; take the restaurant group as an example.
They need to find prime locations for new restaurants, design interiors, hire chefs and waitstaff, all before they even open their doors!
If customers aren't satisfied during those crucial first impressions? It could spell disaster for business.
Fortunately for Arthur, he can tap into top-tier culinary talent from the system mall to ensure exceptional food quality isn't a hurdle.
What truly matters is delivering outstanding service, making customers feel welcome and valued in a five-star dining experience designed to attract elite clientele.
After all, reputation is everything in this industry!
Arthur was on a whirlwind adventure, darting between various industries to check on their progress.
But amidst all the hustle and bustle, he was thoroughly enjoying himself!
Over the past two weeks, he managed to take Clara out on four delightful dates, and their relationship was definitely heating up.
It was clear to him that Clara had a good impression of him,maybe even more than that.
Despite being a complete rookie when it came to romance, Arthur could read the signs; Clara's subtle cues were impossible to ignore.
He might be inexperienced in love, but he wasn't naïve.
Reflecting on his previous life as a total wallflower who had never even held a girl's hand, Arthur felt an overwhelming sense of pride.
Now he found himself taking a breathtakingly beautiful woman out for movies and other fun outings, what an incredible transformation!
But his romantic escapades didn't stop there.
He also met Ophelia three times and even invited her out for dinner just a few days ago.
Every time Arthur laid eyes on Ophelia, it ignited something within him, a fiery attraction for this cold yet irresistibly charming woman.
Her icy demeanor contrasted sharply with her undeniably alluring figure, making his heart race every time they met.
In comparison, Clara embodied a cool delicacy; she had curves that were impressive in their own right but didn't quite match the sultry appeal of Ophelia.
This left Arthur feeling conflicted: Should he pursue both women or focus on just one?
After all, his love life had been nothing short of disastrous in his past existence, but now it seemed like luck was finally smiling upon him!
Both Clara and Ophelia were peerless beauties in their own ways; however, Arthur knew better than to assume he could easily win either of them over.
They came from prestigious backgrounds far beyond his own, wealthy families like the Sinclairs and Blackwoods saw daughters like Clara and Ophelia as strategic assets in political and business maneuvers rather than individuals with personal freedom.
If Arthur wanted to make Clara his girlfriend, or even consider marriage, he'd need to step up his game significantly!
His background would have to match hers if he hoped to impress her family and show them that he was worthy of their daughter's affection.

"President, I've completed my investigation into the Osborn Family," announced a tall, professional woman as she stood before the table, her expression serious and focused.
Ophelia, seated comfortably behind a massive desk and leaning back in her executive chair, responded with a melodious voice that filled the room. "What did you discover?"
The secretary took a deep breath before continuing, "It appears your suspicions were correct. Mr. Arthur, the head of the Osborn Family, has strategically closed all his industrial chain loops.
This means that every industry under his umbrella is now self-sufficient, no need to rely on external companies for materials, transportation, or services.
He's established specific industries to handle everything in-house."
As Ophelia listened intently, the secretary pressed on. "Moreover, I uncovered that he has quietly acquiring hundreds of small businesses a few months back, some on the brink of bankruptcy and others with substantial potential, buying them outright with cash and integrating them into his operations.
For instance, look at the Osborn Media and Entertainment Group: it boasts numerous subsidiaries including its own TV stations and cinema chains across the country!
They're even developing their own social media platforms and already even have bookshops across the entire country."
She paused briefly to let that sink in before adding with a hint of disbelief in her voice, "If anyone tries to undermine them by cutting off sales channels or supply lines… well, good luck! It's nearly impossible unless they can offer something better than what Arthur already provides!"
The weight of this information hung in the air as both women contemplated Arthur's far-reaching strategy.
The secretary couldn't help but marvel at how someone could think so many steps ahead.
