Chapter 50 Preparing Creator Company
Elbert descended the hill and strolled back to the Brown Family estate.
During the short 20-minute walk, the number of users on the Gemini app had already surpassed 200 million. It had doubled, and the growth trend was still unstoppable.
Although the Gemini app was currently completely free to users, Elbert didn't mind. He knew the key to developing his app was putting users first. To be precise, it was about having a large user base.
The Gemini app was now a hit online, and its features had been deeply recognized by everyone. Therefore, continuous user growth was inevitable. What Elbert needed to do was just wait.
'Anonymous social networking is just one of the core highlights of the Gemini app. Essentially, it is still a social network. In the future, the Gemini app will grow into a true social platform through the "finding soulmates" method—a platform that could compete with Facebook and that users couldn't abandon.'
Elbert thought, 'By then, with a large enough user base, there will be various ways to monetize, such as games, finance, shopping, video platforms, live streaming, and more. The derivative value of the Gemini app will have unlimited possibilities.'
'Most importantly, the core code and key technical functions of the Gemini app are unmatched.'
Thinking of this, Elbert pondered, "Robert, now that the Gemini app is online, we need to set an office location. "
Robert replied, "No problem; what are your requirements?"
Elbert thought for a moment and smiled. "It needs to be high-end, grand, and intimidating."
"The tallest building in the Wavehaven, Skyrise Tower CBD, has the top three floors, 87, 88, and 89, plus a rooftop terrace with a small golf course and a helicopter landing pad. A total of 70,309 square feet, 400 workstations, 4 independent meeting rooms, 13 independent offices, an independent coffee bar, an independent restaurant, and a 300-square-meter modern decorated CEO office. Business center-grade office decoration, professional security, and 24-hour access control. In the same building, there are 5 Fortune 500 branch offices and 16 listed companies. How about this one?"
Elbert smiled slightly. "That's the one. Let's buy it."
"Also, I've selected 3 marketing directors, 4 design directors, 6 network engineering directors, as well as an HR manager, customer service, 200 senior programmers, and a total of 330 excellent employees from 100,000 resumes online. I'm communicating with them using a virtual identity. I'm sure they are all qualified for their jobs. The registration procedures for Creator Company have also been applied for and will be approved within three days. I've also ordered company supplies and renovation modifications online... 30 seconds ago, I bought the Skyrise Tower office address at a price 10% higher than the market rate, and the contract is being signed."
After listening to Robert's arrangements in a daze, Elbert couldn't help but sigh.
'Robert, thank god, I got you here; otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to solve these problems,' thought he.
"So, we already get so many talented employees; we only need someone trustworthy."
Elbert pondered for a moment, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
At Starlight Plaza, GOG Clothing Store, Alvin, who was checking inventory and getting ready to open the store, suddenly heard his phone ring.
"Elbert? Hey, how are you doing? " Alvin wiped his sweat and smiled.
"Alvin, I remember you told me in college that you had a dream of starting your own business?"
Elbert also smiled.
"Yeah, everyone has had dreams. But that was in the past. Why are you bringing this up?"
"I remember you had a poster by your bed that said, Youth never return. But guess what? it has returned."
Elbert paused and said in a low voice, "I've started a company and left you a good position. Do you want to join me?"
Alvin suddenly fell silent. Elbert's sudden reminder stirred up old emotions in Alvin, who had given up a promising future for a flashy woman. Some long-dormant feelings in his heart were rekindled.
Elbert didn't speak, just patiently waiting. He knew Alvin was a smart person. Alvin knew better than anyone whether he had a future with Kimberly. But Alvin was naturally stubborn and didn't want to give up easily on anything.
After a long time, Alvin slowly said, "Are you sure I can do it?"
"I know your talent best."
"Alright."
Hearing Alvin slowly say this word, Elbert let out a long sigh of relief.
'You finally figured it out,' thought he.
"Hey, you, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and organize the inventory; we need to open the store." In the GOG store, Kimberly shouted and looked at Alvin, who was holding his phone and couldn't snap out of it.
Alvin slowly turned around, his eyes glinting with an unprecedented look. He straightened his back, his aura completely different from the fawning little store clerk he was before.
"Kimberly, I've served you for three whole years, and you haven't even smiled at me. Today, I'm done with you," Alvin said, kicking aside a pile of clothes in front of him and walking out with his head held high.
When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped. He slowly turned back and said, "And Kimberly, my name is Alvin Weaver. Next time, you better say my name."
