Chapter 202 Product Release Conference (Part 2) (Specially added for Alliance Leader TuTuLB!)

David Lancaster put down his slightly hot mobile phone with a wry smile, the content from the phone call still echoing in his mind. He naturally knew about Finn Lewis, how he had bought HyperCraft from Flying Horse. But just like Lewis had said, people did not give much thought to the HyperCraft brand. And due to the nonsense Bonnie from Flying Horse had spouted, this brand had directly stepped into historical oblivion, probably never to reappear again.

Although they hadn't met many times, Lancaster had lived for decades, his grandson almost the same age as Lewis. He could easily discern Lewis's temperament. However, the content he had just heard over the phone was still somewhat unbelievable to Lancaster. But since it had been mentioned that he could come over to sign the letter of intent now, disbelief was no longer an option.

But this was sheer madness, how prodigal one needed to be to accomplish this? Was it just over a woman? Earlier, Lancaster had answered Lewis's call and had agreed to increase endorsement fees for Kay Lee. Consequently, he had naturally noticed Lee. But to his surprise, Lewis had taken a big gamble.

On August 2nd, the Dura product launch took place. This press conference could only be recognized as a semi-public press conference since, though many reporters were invited, they were refused live coverage of the event and could only publish the news after the interviews had concluded.

Though the conference was semi-public, there were a lot of new car orders. Not only were the wealthy persons from Flame Nation invited, but the rich from all the countries in Southeast Asia as well. Of course, whether these wealthy individuals would have time to show up was none of Dura's concern.

The invitation had been sent out, whether they bought or not, Dura didn't care.

Anyway, there were lots of wealthy people in the world, but those who could enter the event were basically all affluent. For Lewis to get a ticket wasn't hard. Therefore, at the start of the product launch, Lewis didn't immediately appear, but instead met with Lancaster in a meeting room in the back of the event.

“Mr. Lewis, I don't know what you're thinking, but this reason is quite extreme,” Lancaster said with a bitter smile.

“Shouldn't young people be a bit more audacious?” Lewis responded with a smile.

“But you've really…” Lancaster was left speechless. Yes, the young should be bold, but wasn't Lewis taking things too far?

“Alright… I can agree… but Mr. Lewis… how am I supposed to explain this to Dura?” Asked Lancaster, chuckling bitterly. Dura and Flying Horse had just started to collaborate then this happens. How were the two parties supposed to continue their dealings?

“That's why, Mr. Lancaster, you must help me successfully accomplish the second task. Don't worry, once the second task is completed, our cooperation

won't end. Moreover, I can provide even more advanced engine technology. Additionally, I believe you would most certainly want to see just how powerful the cars our laboratory produces are, right?” Lewis spoke with a smirk.

“Alright,” Lancaster sighed reluctantly as he submitted to the agreement. Although his face held a bitter expression, he nearly broke into a laugh internally. What did he care whether Dura was good or not? Once Flying Horse got the technology from Lewis, wouldn't they easily regain their dominance in the auto market?

“Then I'll be awaiting your good news, Mr. Lancaster.” Lewis gently smiled, then promptly got to his feet.

Before Lancaster could say anything, Lewis had already strolled out. Lancaster was left speechless, after a pause he followed Lewis out. Upon stepping outside, Lewis didn't head straight for the conference hall. Instead, as though he were going for a walk, he slowly meandered around admiring the scene, leisurely strolling to the ground floor.

Truthfully, Lewis had never been here before. This international racetrack seemed magnificent, but it was a place he'd never had the opportunity to visit in the past.

“…So, we now begin the reservation for our Dura Mur99! First, we will be auctioning 15 slots for the Flame Nation. Interested gentlemen and ladies, please bid. The reservation price is 35 million Flame Nation coins,” the emcee on stage energetically announced the climax of the event: the new car reservation.

Bryski Miller scanned the crowd, a hint of disappointment in his eyes. Lewis was not here. However, he soon cheered up, presuming that Lewis was scared. He had spoken so excessively the night before, Bryski had even thought Lewis might show up. But, it was better that he didn't. With so many reporters around, he wanted to watch as the woman on the stage embarrass herself when she tries to step down.

Simultaneously, Lancaster, too, was scanning the room from the VIP stage. He had already arrived at the venue, not spotting Lewis made him speechless. This man…worked in mysterious ways.

“I wonder who's going to reserve this first Dura MUR99! With the first one, we will create a car decoration that is unique worldwide, including some slight differences in its external structure from other cars. Most importantly, this first car is already here today, and the gentleman who reserves this first Dura will be the first one to get the actual car.” The host on stage aroused enthusiasm once more.

Although Finn Lewis didn't show up, causing some disappointment for Bryski

Miller, he still raised his right hand, “This gentleman reserved the first Dura Mur99. Given its uniqueness, I wonder if there are any other gentlemen willing to pay more to get the first special edition Dura? Although it's still a Dura MUR99, strictly speaking, it's actually the only one in the world.”

With Bryski's hand raised, Kay Lee naturally saw Bryski standing under the stage. When she saw the gloomy look in his eyes aimed at her, Kay felt a chill throughout her body. For some reason, she suddenly thought of Finn Lewis from two nights ago, even though she felt embarrassed about her decision that night.

But nothing happened. Her Doraemon Albert merely tousled her hair before leaving. When she saw Bryski today, she unconsciously thought of Finn.

Perhaps it's because he first appeared in connection with Bryski. Regretfully, he didn't seem to get an invitation today. Kay was a bit disappointed, but still muttered in her heart, “If you really are my Doraemon Albert, please appear now, I want to see you.”

Before Kay finished her thought, suddenly a familiar voice echoed throughout the venue, “Are you a bit disappointed because I didn't show up?

The sudden voice brought a hint of surprise to Kay's face. She looked incredulously toward the source of the sound, as did everyone else. Naturally, Bryski Miller and David Lancaster, who both recognized the voice, also instinctively looked towards its source.

They saw Finn Lewis, casually dressed, somehow, holding a cane in his left hand, elegantly toying with it. But in his other hand, he held something that nearly made everyone drop their jaws – a yellow portable megaphone… the kind often held by tour guides at tourist sites.

Where on earth did he find that? Damn it, there doesn't seem to be such an item here, right?

“Are you disappointed?” With a double entendre, Finn spoke up while winking at Kay on stage. A blush immediately spread across Kay's face. She couldn't believe that just by thinking about him, Finn would magically appear.

Although she may have guessed beforehand that Finn might show up, she didn't see his name on the guest list before the start. So, she thought he wouldn't come… Who would have known?

Finn's words, firstly, were for Kay, and secondly, were naturally for Bryski on the stage. Why did that guy dare to provoke him yesterday? If it weren't for his provocation, there wouldn't have been any missions.

“Disappointed? Not really. I thought you didn't have the guts to show up, didn't expect you'd actually come. I heard, Mr. Lewis, that you're quite rich. You're willing to pay a hundred million for a year of endorsement for an artist?” Bryski Miller grinned and spoke up loudly.

Hearing Bryski's words, Kay on stage immediately widened her eyes, turning to look at Finn instantly. However, Finn's gaze wasn't on her but stayed on Bryski, and without hesitation, he shouted back, “None of your business! What's wrong with a hundred million endorsement? This is not about endorsement fees, it's just that I can't stand some people's coquetry. If you want to court or chase a girl, do it if you have the capability. If she disagrees, don't you utilize your power to suppress her. Do you think your dad is Gavin Lee?”

Finn's words, spoken quickly and urgently, plus the portable megaphone he held, his voice was way louder than Bryski's, and everyone heard it.

Most of the people present were from the circles in Southeast Asia and the domestic scene. The circle of the wealthy isn't large, and many knew Bryski. However, Finn… they didn't have much of an impression. But someone willing to confront Bryski wouldn't be of low status either. And just as Bryski mentioned, these people almost immediately remembered – isn't this the young man who took over WY? Referring to the rumors from WY's previous press conference, could this person be that mysterious                   player?

WY isn't a small company. Even though its market value isn't very high, it's still worth nearly a hundred billion Flame Nation coins, which is not a small company by any means. Therefore, these people would naturally pay attention to the change of ownership of WY. They were well aware of what happened.
