Since she was already imposing, Aubree clenched her teeth, figuring she might as well be a hands-off boss with the competition coming up. After all, the company was giving Bowen shares, he couldn’t just collect dividends without contributing. She laid out her requirements, then added: [Mr. Malone, could you also see if there are any talented candidates from your company who didn’t make the cut? I’d appreciate any referrals.]

The Turner Group was currently hiring.

Kelvin wrote: [I’ll check with HR later.] As Bowen’s right-hand man, he understood better than the other assistants just how important this girl was to the boss.

Kelvin didn’t underestimate Aubree in the slightest due to her youth. ‘How could someone who comes up with such brilliant ideas and achieves so much at her age ever be just some small fry?’ he thought admiringly.

With Kelvin handling recruitment, Aubree was relieved and left it to him. Even those rejected by the Turner Group were still exceptional talents in her eyes.

The first step was to launch Playzy. Once it was up and running, she’d have her esports team members stream games and engage with fans on the platform. With the champion effect of her players, she wouldn’t need much promotion. Fans would naturally be drawn in.

‘If we can win another championship at the League of Legends Annual Finals, it’ll be a huge boost for both the esports club and Bree Technology’s growth,’ she thought.

The esports club’s base should be nearly ready by now. Golden Industrial Park was clear who their clients would be. Every detail of the initial interior was designed with esports clubs in mind, so the place was essentially turnkey. They just needed to set up their own computers and equipment in the training area.

Aubree had already hired professionals to set up the computers and fitness area after leasing the space. Now she planned to inspect the place. She thought, ‘If everything checks out, I’ll let Hector and the others know to move in.”
