Chapter 214


    At Storm Group.


    Everyone was busy preparing for the officialunch of their new smartphone.


    Ben, in his office, yed the love simtion game produced by Leo’spany and couldn’t help but


    laugh, “As expected.”


    He had known for a while that isabe possessed some kind of precognitive ability.


    So, when he heard that Leo’spany was developing a love game, he had a hunch.


    This game would likely bear some simrities to Susan’s game.


    Now, with Isabe releasing her game just before the officialunch of Future One, his suspicions were


    confirmed.


    Although Isabe’s game was crudely made, its setting and male character designs were strikingly


    simr to


    Susan’s game.


    Ben knew this was a result of Isabe using her precognitive ability to get ahead.


    But what about others?


    They would simply judge based on the chronological order of release, assuming Susan’s game copied


    Isabe’s.


    If Susan were to be branded a copycat, it could potentially ruin her career.


    However, Ben wasn’t worried.


    In fact, he felt somewhat relieved. Intelligence, after all, is what it is.


    Indeed.


    Intelligence is what it is.


    What does it matter if one has the ability to foresee the future? It doesn’t change their intellect.


    Since Isabe likes to be clever, let her taste the consequences of her own making.


    The next day.


    The Future One smartphone was released as scheduled.


    Stores of Storm Group, both online and offline, were swamped with customers.


    Soon, the first group of people got their hands on the Future One smartphone,

    Chapter 214


    Among them was Tyler, a popr Inte streamer.


    He focused his live streams on evaluating various electronic products.


    This time, he had managed to get his hands on one of the first batch of Future One smartphones.


    Eager to share his experience, he hadn’t even opened the phone himself before starting a live stream


    to unbox it


    with his audience.


    He quickly updated his stream’s title.


    [Evaluating the Future One Smartphone!]


    Just the title alone drew in a whopping 100,000 viewers in a sh, and the numbers kept climbing.


    Tyler couldn’t hide his excitement. Though he was somewhat well–known in the streaming world, his


    previous peak viewership, achieved during his evaluation of the Allure series phones, was only around


    500,000.


    Now, within just ten minutes of streaming, he had already hit that number.


    Today, he was sure to set a new personal record.


    [Stop dawdling, anchor, open the box already!]


    [I tried to get the Future One during the online presale and it sold out in a second. I tried again in–store


    today and the line was 300 feet long. No chance for me!]


    I


    [I feel you, too! I couldn’t get one either, so I’m watching the anchor’s review first. If it’s really good, I’ll


    keep trying. If it’s just okay, I might just give up.]


    [Open the box, anchor, open it!]


    After quickly ncing at the barrage ofments, Tyler said, “I know you guys are eager, so let’s cut


    to the chase. and open it up!”


    Tyler opened the Future One’s box and took out the phone.


    Thements exploded in excitement.


    [The design looks amazing! It’s even better looking than the official images.]


    [Ah, I love it so much! As someone who values aesthetics, I’ve decided to line up again tomorrow.


    There’s no way I won’t get one.]


    The appearance of the Future One was indeed stunning.


    Tyler began to describe it, ‘Guys, I got the Azure Color Version. Look at the back of this phone – it’s a


    gradient blue,

    Chapter 214


    looking both ssy and incredibly beautiful. Even a man who doesn’t care about looks, I find it really


    attractive. There are three other colors avable from the manufacturer, and I bet they are all equally


    stunning.”


    [Enough talking, anchor. Turn it on. Let’s see the features,] the viewers continued to urge.


    “Alright, don’t rush. Let’s test it out one by one,” Tyler sald and began testing the phone with


    professional software.


    The results left him momentarily speechless.


    “Wow, Storm Group really lives up to their name. Theirst phone, Allure One, was already top of its


    ss in performance. While everyone is still trying to catch up to the Allure series, they’ve gone and


    made another huge leap. The performance of Future One surpasses the Allure series in every aspect.


    It’s truly the king of smartphones!”


    [Wow, so awesome!]


    [Yes, that’s so great.]


    [The performance is really impressive! That camera has me all excited. It feels even better than a


    professional DSLR costing thousands.]


    [This operating speed is like lightning fast.]


    [Everyone agrees that Future One will surpass the Allure series. But that


    to see some real breakthroughs.]


    [Right, let’s test out the artificial intelligence.]


    The viewers‘ requests were definitely to be met.


    just in regr aspects! Anchor, we want


    Tyler chuckled and responded, “Alright, I’ll test the Al for you guys. Those who think I’m doing a good


    job,


    remember to donate me.”


    In a sh, Tyler received a lot of donations.


    Tyler, pleased, quickly said, “I’m opening the personal assistant feature now.”


    As Tyler fiddled with the phone, he chatted with his audience.


    “The personal assistant can be visualized on the phone screen. Hmm, I’ll choose a maturedy


    character. Guys, you can actually customize her personality. The more specific the customization, the


    higher the intelligence level of the assistant, ording to the official statement. I don’t have much time


    today, so I just do a quick edit.”


    Tyler Inputted, [Pretentious, sharp–tongued, saying the opposite of what she means. asionally gets


    angry.]


    The audience burst intoughter.

    [So the anchor likes this kind of style.]


    [I like a pretentious maturedy too.]


    [Crying, are we cute girls destined to be unloved?]


    [Go away. You say you’re a cute girl, but when you turn on the camera, you’re a slovenly man.]


    [The guy above, have you been traumatized or something? Share it, let’s all have some fun.]


    As everyone chatted merrily, the personal assistant was set up.


    A realistic maturedy character appeared in the bottom right corner of Tyler’s phone screen, looking


    almost like a


    real person.


    The screen was immediately filled with wolf whistles.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    [She’s so beautiful, oh my!]


    “Quick, anchor, tease her a bit. I’ll donate you.”


    “Me too.”


    Tyler didn’t expect that just the appearance of the Al character would cause such a stir.


    He hurriedly said, “I’m starting to interact with her now.”


    He pressed the dialogue button and cautiously said, “Hello.”


    The pretentious maturedy character raised an eyebrow, huffed dismissively, and then ignored Tyler.


    Tyler was speechless.


    The screen erupted withughter again.


    [This character really has a personality. Keep going, anchor!]


    Taking a deep breath and encouraged by his viewers‘ eagerness, Tyler said, “Keep donating, guys. I’ll


    keep going.”


    But, as a straightforward guy, he really didn’t know how to chat with girls.


    After some hesitation, Tyler ventured, “How old are you?”


    The Al character frowned and huffed again.


    Feeling awkward, Tyler tentatively guessed, “Thirty?”

    Thisment hit a nerve.


    The Al character got angry: Thirty? I am forever eighteen! I advise you, if your eyes are useless, please


    donate them to someone in need!”


    Suddenly, a bunch of web pages popped up on his phone.


    Tyler looked at them.


    [Organizations epting cornea donations.]


    [Cornea donation hotline: *****]


    Tyler was speechless.


    The audience was rolling withughter.


    This personal assistant was quite something.


    Feeling a bit embarrassed but trying to keep up, Tyler coughed and said, “Please find me a lyric song.”


    The pretentious character, seemingly displeased with him, started pulling up a bunch of music while


    continuing to snipe at him.


    “A lyric song? I didn’t expect someone as ugly as you to like lyric songs. It’s surprising – someone as


    unattractive as you trying to be peculiar.”


    Tyler: “… Hey! You can’t even see me, how can you call me ugly?”


    The pretentious character scoffed coldly, “All phones from Storm Group share an image library. Here,


    take a look at these selfies. If they’re not ugly, what are they?”


    She pulled up a bunch of photos.


    Tyler was speechless again.


    Comments flooded the chat, [Lol.]


    Feeling somewhat wronged and annoyed, Tyler said, “I don’t like this personality. I’m going to reset her!


    Guys, wait, I’ll set up a gentler type.”


    He opened the program, about to reset the pretentious character.


    The character seemed to understand what he was about to do.


    She didn’t speak but tilted her head up slightly, disying a defiant and proud demeanor.

    Yet, upon closer inspection, there appeared to be a hint of tears in her eyes.


    The audience began to feel sympathy.


    [Oh no, she looks so pitiful, anchor, don’t reset her!]


    [This feels just like a real person. Host, you can’t ‘kill‘ her!]


    [My heart is breaking.]


    Tyler’s finger hovered over the reset option for a long time before he resignedly let it go. [Alright, alright,


    I’ll make do]


    The pretentious character instantly perked up, “Hmph. I knew you didn’t have the heart to reset me.”


    Her smug look struck a chord with Tyler, hitting right at his soft spot.


    The audience, initially hesitant about buying the new phone, were now eagerly moring, swearing


    they absolutely


    had to buy one.


    The personal assistant feature alone was apelling reason to purchase it.


    After interacting a bit more with the tsundere character, Tyler proceeded to open and showcase the


    phone’s built–in


    apps.


    “Hmm, Starry Romance. Looks like a romance game. As a straightforward guy, I’ll pass on this one.


    Any girls Interested can buy it and try for themselves.”


    Tyler was about to skip it, but the audience quickly chimed in.


    [Don’t skip it! We love watching straightforward guys y romance games.]


    [y it, anchor, or we’ll unsubscribe.]


    Tyler nced at thements and dered with conviction, “I’m a man of principles. If I say I won’t


    y, I won’t y.”


    [A thousand dors] someone offered.


    “Even for a thousand dors, I won’t y,” Tyler insisted. “It’s not about money. It’s about integrity.”


    [Ten thousand dors!]


    Tyler swiftly opened Starry Romance, “Deal.”
