608: Chapter 63 was terrifying.

He tossed the document into the file tray on his right.

Then he picked up the second one.

【Huanyu Studio's "Era of Mountains and Seas" Reconstruction Version Closed Beta Data Report】

Wu Ya's name was signed in the reporter's column.

The performance of the "Firmament" engine had been fully unleashed.

The game's graphics had reached cinematic quality.

The retention rate of the closed beta players was ninety-eight percent.

A terrifying figure.

At the end of the report,

a global simultaneous release plan was attached,

along with a promotion and distribution proposal with a budget as high as two billion.

Shen Yan's gaze swept over the dense rows of data.

The corner of Shen Yan's mouth twitched slightly.

He picked up a pen.

On the promotion budget of "two billion," he drew a circle.

Next to it, he rewrote it as five billion.

He signed his name.

He tossed the report into the file tray on his right.

The third, fourth, and fifth documents followed.

Overseas investment returns for Panshi Capital.

Leasing progress for Shen Yan Plaza.

A proposal submitted by his younger sister, Shen Ya, regarding the establishment of a Biotechnology Branch Company.

Shen Yan processed them at an extremely fast speed.

His brain was like a supercomputer.

In his eyes, every document transformed into a core stream of data.

The system's notification sound would occasionally ring,

providing the most precise evidence for his every decision.

Wu Ya walked in, carrying a cup of coffee.

She gently placed the coffee on the corner of Shen Yan's desk.

She didn't disturb him,

but simply stood to the side,

watching quietly.

The man before her seemed to possess a kind of magic.

Just by sitting there,

the entire company's aura became different.

That sense of absolute control

made everyone feel at ease.

Two hours later,

that mountain of documents

had been cleared.

The file tray on the right was piled high.

Shen Yan stood up

and stretched his shoulders.

He picked up the cup of coffee, which had already gone somewhat cold,

and took a sip.

"Guang Ke, I'm going over to the plaza to take a look."

Chen Guangke nodded.

"The car is ready."

The phantom no. 7.

It was an electric concept car produced by their lab, not for public sale.

It was pitch black all over,

without a single superfluous line.

It looked like a drop of water merging into the night.

Shen Yan drove the car

through the city streets.

Half an hour later,

a brand-new complex of buildings appeared before him.

Shen Yan Plaza.

It was located in the newest commercial planning district of the Capital.

The main building was three hundred meters tall.

The exterior walls were made of seamless photoelectric glass.

At this moment,

the exterior walls of the entire building were displaying a deep starry sky.

Countless stars slowly flowed across it.

Passing pedestrians couldn't help but stop and look up.

The vehicle drove into the underground parking lot.

A middle-aged man wearing a hard hat hurried forward to meet him.

Wei Guoliang.

He was the general manager in charge of the decoration project for Shen Yan Plaza.

His face carried a hint of nervousness and excitement.

"President Shen, you've arrived."

Shen Yan got out of the car.

"Show me around."

His voice was very flat.

Wei Guoliang immediately led the way.

They took the sightseeing elevator directly to the top floor of the mall.

The elevator was completely transparent.

During the ascent,

the entire internal structure of the mall could be clearly seen.

A massive atrium,

spiraling upward walkways.

The shops on every floor had already completed their basic decoration,

leaving only the final soft furnishings and product displays.

"President Shen, all the hard decorations were completed last week."

"Fire safety, electricity, and the network have all passed inspection."

"This is the report issued by the third-party air quality testing agency we hired."

Wei Guoliang handed over a tablet.

It displayed complex chemical formulas and values.

Formaldehyde, benzene, TVOC.

All indicators were far below the national safety standards.

Shen Yan didn't look at the report.

His gaze fell on the atrium ceiling.

It was a giant canopy composed of tens of thousands of small screens.

"'Bedrock' core, operational data."

Shen Yan spoke.

Wei Guoliang was stunned for a moment.

He hadn't expected the boss to ask about this.

The "Bedrock" core was an intelligent management system tailor-made by Future Technology for Shen Yan Plaza.

It controlled everything here.

Lighting, air conditioning, security, and foot traffic guidance.

"It's... it's in the central control room," Wei Guoliang answered hurriedly.

Wei Guoliang answered hurriedly.

"No need, right here is fine."

Shen Yan raised his wrist.

A pale blue light screen was projected from his wristband.

He extended his fingers and tapped rapidly on the light screen several times.

Wei Guoliang couldn't even see his movements clearly.

In the next second,

the image on the atrium canopy changed.

It was no longer the starry sky,

but had turned into a waterfall-like stream of data.

Countless codes and charts flashed rapidly across the canopy.

The entire mall was illuminated by this blue data light, looking like a sci-fi world.

Wei Guoliang was dumbfounded.

He had never imagined

that someone could call up the system's core data in such a way.

Shen Yan's gaze swept across the canopy,

as if reading a book that couldn't be simpler.

A few seconds later,

he spoke.

"The ventilation system in the southeast corner of the third floor, Zone B."

"Power redundancy, add another five percent."

"Increase the coolant circulation rate of the central server by three percent."

"The foot traffic recognition sensor at the entrance of Gate 1 has a 0.01-second delay; replace it."

He listed seven or eight problems in a row.

Each one was precise to a degree that Wei Guoliang couldn't understand.

Cold sweat broke out on Wei Guoliang's forehead.

These problems weren't reflected in his inspection report at all.

Or rather,

with his technical level, he couldn't discover them at all.

"Yes, President Shen, I'll get right on it."

The data stream on the canopy disappeared,

turning back into that deep starry sky.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

Shen Yan withdrew his hand.

"Open on time on the first of next month."

After saying that,

he turned and walked toward the elevator,

leaving Wei Guoliang standing there,

his back already soaked with cold sweat.

He looked at Shen Yan's departing figure,

his eyes filled only with awe.

The phantom no. 7 drove out of Shen Yan Plaza

and merged into the return traffic.

Shen Yan didn't choose the main road;

he turned into a relatively quiet side road.

The vehicle was traveling smoothly.

Just then,

a figure suddenly rushed out from a street corner.

It was an old lady,

sitting in a semi-old electric wheelchair.

The wheelchair was moving very fast,

seemingly out of control,

crashing straight toward the front of the phantom no. 7.

Everything happened in a flash.

Shen Yan's pupils constricted slightly.

His foot didn't step on the brake,

and his brain hadn't even issued a command,

yet the vehicle's emergency security system had already reacted.

No piercing alarm sounded.

The tires didn't screech against the ground.

The phantom no. 7 simply, in a way that defied physical common sense,

instantly

came to a standstill.

The front of the car was from the front wheel of the wheelchair

less than three centimeters away.

A burnt smell emanated from the electromagnetic brake pads under the car.

Shen Yan pushed open the car door.

He stepped out.

The old lady was clearly frightened as well.

Her face was pale,

her hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the wheelchair,

and her lips were trembling slightly.
