Despite his laughter, Kalix’s gaze was razor-sharp, as if wielding the sharpest knife that could cut through Jayden’s skin. His appearance was clearly more intimidating than witnessing explosive anger.Jayden unconsciously held his breath and took a step back.Seeing this, Kalix mocked before saying, “Watch your words, don’t demean my mother! Your Dominic family means nothing to my mother or to me.”Feeling Kalix’s sharpness, how could Jayden still have the courage to provoke him? He fell silent, but his mind actively considered various plans.Even if he wasn’t particularly fond of his family, he knew how significant their presence was in his life. If his parents and older brother were just ordinary people without wealth and power, he would grow up as an ordinary person, unable to enjoy a pleasant life.So, when he heard Kalix belittling the Dominic family, Jayden felt anger and a desire to silence him. Unfortunately, he lacked that courage.Kalix knew that Jayden was contemplating fa
It seemed like the morning sun was shining brightly, its warmth penetrating even through Kalix’s closed eyelids. However, for some reason, rain started to fall moments later, its drops hitting Kalix’s face, jolting him awake.Opening his eyes in surprise, he found himself looking at a familiar face. Realizing the situation, he complained, “Mom, what are you doing? I told you not to wake me up by splashing water on my face.”Despite his words conveying dissatisfaction, Kalix didn’t feel angry at all. After all, this was the life he had once dreamed of in the past.His mother, Grace, snorted upon hearing her son’s complaint and retorted sharply, “Look at the time! Nick came to pick you up all neatly dressed, but look at yourself...”Grace sighed deeply and continued in a weakened tone, “You can’t even get up on your own.”“Mom, I can get up on my own. You don’t need to bother waking me up.”Tapping her son’s forehead without excessive force, Grace continued scolding him, “If I didn’t wa
"Yes, I will filter them and convey it as you said," Tommy replied, feeling a bit powerless, but deep down, he nurtured a bit of confidence in Kalix's abilities.Seeing his demeanor, Kalix nodded in satisfaction. "The same goes for you. If you're reluctant to be a subordinate, you can resign."Tommy immediately shook his head and hastily responded, "No, no. I will continue to work here, be your subordinate."The man in his forties lowered his head. His aspiration was to create the most famous and successful game studio. Although he couldn't achieve it, he didn't want his efforts to be in vain. So, he could only sell it and hope the new owner could develop the games he had created.After a lengthy discussion, a deal was made, and the agreement was signed. Kalix and Nick didn't linger, they went to register the name of their game company: State-of-Art.It was the same name as the technology company they developed in their previous lives.After going through a series of procedures, Kalix
The ‘stealing’ accusation gradually spread to other forums and became a hot topic. It even started appearing in unrelated gaming forums. Gossip accounts and information in Oakville began highlighting the issue. Kalix didn’t show frustration, influencing his colleagues. Instead of dwelling on the problem, they focused on other improvements. Meanwhile, Kalix brought Tommy to discuss the matter after leaving him for a day. “What’s your take on this issue?” Kalix asked, not looking at Tommy but tinkering with his laptop. Tommy sighed and answered, “I suspect the ones making those hammer statements are my former colleagues.” “Yes, indeed,” Kalix said calmly, as if mentioning his breakfast menu. Having worked with Kalix for over a month, Tommy understood the young man’s demeanor. Despite his youthful age and handsome, seemingly pampered face, he was firm. In decision-making and planning, everything was done decisively and accurately. That’s why Tommy slowly let go of his reservations
State-of-the-Art has officially moved to a new, larger, and more comfortable building. The shop they now occupy has 5 floors, surrounded by small companies from various fields. The environment is comfortable and, certainly, secure due to strict surveillance by security guards before entering the shop area. Kalix has also considered recruiting some security guards specifically for the company. Tommy knocks on Kalix’s office door, and upon receiving the command to enter, he finally opens the door and steps in. “Boss, this is the list of job applicants who have passed for tomorrow’s interview.” Tommy places several job applicant documents, including CVs and necessary materials. Kalix takes the stack of documents and quickly checks, asking, “What time does the interview start?” “Around 10 am, Boss,” Tommy confidently replies. “Okay, I will personally participate in the interview.” After that, Tommy leaves. Kalix flips through the documents and glances . He stops at a name that he
Kalix and Nick are not hiding their intention to create a large-scale game in the near future. All employees were even told not to hesitate to propose their ideas if they have any.Not many submitted files containing game ideas they wanted to create. Kalix read and examined them one by one. He was very serious and focused on finding the strengths and weaknesses of each concept submitted by his employees."I've chosen two that seem decent to me, check them out yourself." Kalix handed two files to Nick, who entered his room as usual.Lazily taking those files, Nick complained, "I came here to relax and be alone, not to work.""Heh," smirked Kalix. "Don't think my room is more relaxed.""I know. Your room actually has more pressure, but it's better here."Kalix glanced at him with a questioning look. As the lead game developer, Nick also had his own room according to his preference. Because his mind was more active when he was alone and not disturbed by anyone.So, when Nick said Kalix's
As in the life before, they aimed for 1 million. Kalix roughly glanced at it, then added an additional 1 million at the bottom of the form. Two million would be enough for them to develop the game for the next 6 months.When he handed it to Sia, he requested, "Ask the R&D department to send a form about the game, including the code."Sia nodded.A few minutes later, Eve sent up a USB, then hesitated, clearly wanting to say something.Kalix inserted the USB into the computer, opened the game's source code, and began modifying it. He adjusted the modified code to be concealed, covering it with the original code. Even if a top-tier hacker got in, they might not be able to find it.Due to Kalix's current expertise being considered top-notch, not just because he had a soul from the future, but also because he had a system that would always assist him.It took 10 minutes to handle all of this, then Kalix calmly looked towards Eve, who was still standing hesitantly. Kalix knew that Eve wante
Without further investigating Snyder, Kalix no longer glanced at him. So why, if Snyder knew something? As long as it didn’t pose a problem for him or hinder his path, Kalix wouldn’t care.They talked a bit more before parting ways. Kalix returned to his room and sent the same message to Sia.[You and Dion will meet with SNY representatives to sign the investment agreement.]The woman’s response came shortly after.[Alright! Boss, aren’t you going to meet the SNY representative?][No. You just need to represent me in signing it, I’ve already negotiated with SNY. I have to leave this afternoon.]Sia replied with approval. Kalix threw his phone onto the bed and changed his clothes. He intentionally brought Dion and Sia because he had another meeting.After 30 minutes of choosing his outfit, Kalix picked up his phone again and saw a new message. The corners of his lips unconsciously curved upwards.He replied promptly.[I’ll pick you up. Wait there.]Staring at himself in the mirror, Kal
