Quantum initially engaged in foreign trade. In Sienna’s time, domestic production levels were not that
high, and many items needed to be imported. With the favorable policies and the couple’s diligence
and bravery, they umted a lot of wealth through import and export business within a few years.
However, with the development of the domestic economy and the convenience of transportation and
communication, the old foreign trade channels were no longer suitable, and thepany’s profits
began to decline. So they started looking for new business opportunities.
In thete 1980s, when radios, TVs, and other household appliances just began to rise, there were
very few domesticpanies producing these products, and import prices could not be lowered.
Ordinary people found it difficult to buy these appliances.
The old man came up with an idea to acquire electrical appliancepanies, invest heavily, and hire
many professionals to focus on the independent research and development of household appliances.
Soon, Quantum’s household electrical appliance products quickly took over the market. When it was
Liam’s father Orville’s turn to take over, it was the turn of the century.
Orville had a more long-term vision. He believed that after a certain stage of production development,
the era of full intelligent machinery would inevitablye So he chose the automation research and
development major when he was in college. After graduation, he transformed and repositioned the
company with his wife’s financial support. Today, Quantum has be the leadingpany in the
domestic chip industry. Liam continued Orville’s entrepreneurial concept, firmly continuing to develop
and improve thepany.
He was indeed capable in this area, but apany needed more than just capable people, especially
aplexpany like Quantum.
Old Mr. Reed and Shawn had some simrities in some respects, such as not forgetting their rtives
after making a fortune. Although Sienna was the main shareholder of Quantum, there were many other
branches of the Reed family in thepany.
Liam was not good at socializing and disliked socializing situations. He was different from those who
formted business strategies in the office for years; he was more focused on research and
development work. Investing more in research and development meant squeezing the interests of other
branches of the Reed family.

As a result, Liam’s image was not popr among the shareholders of thepany.
Many projects that required everyone’s vote were often opposed by everyone because they harmed
their interests.
Clyde was different. He was more like a businessman, putting the interests of thepany and
shareholders first.
This also led to the fact that although Liam had created excess profits for thepany over the years,
he was still less popr than Clyde.
Those people didn’t trust Liam, and simrly, Liam didn’t trust them. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked
his friend to check the contract. Celeste was not interested in their conversation. She sat in Liam’s
office chair, holding a pen and leisurely drawing.
Liam looked at her while talking and found her absorbed in drawing. He couldn’t help but smile and
wondered what she was drawing.
She was very serious about drawing and didn’t even notice that he had finished talking and came over.
Liam looked down at the paper under her pert, and his face suddenly changed.
