No one left, at least up until now, no one has left, because Finn Lewis has already said that the prototype of this car already exists in the laboratory. It implies that if it gets completed, it might become the most advanced car in the world, without a doubt. Even the specially customized cars for world leaders cannot match this car’s power and performance.

As engineers and workers in this industry, everyone has been working for years to create a classic car. And now, it is beyond doubt that if this car is produced, their names will go down in history with it.

Seeing that nobody was opting out, Finn Lewis paused his explanation with a smile and looked toward the manager from Flying Horse who had come along. Today was a day of transition, so of course, someone from Flying Horse would be present.

When the middle-aged man noticed Finn Lewis approaching, he paused slightly. What Finn had just said had given him quite a shock. “Sir, please deliver a message to Bonnie when you return. Tell her, she likes talking about

HyperCraft’s history, right? Then let her know that from the moment I bought HyperCraft, this brand will disappear from the world. To me, this brand is worthless. Did you get that?”

“Yes… got it.” This middle-aged man was not a senior executive of Flying Horse, only a middle-level manager. He seemed tentative in front of Finn Lewis, and gave an anxious, stammered agreement.

“Additionally, inform Flying Horse to destroy every car bearing the HyperCraft logo, regardless of whether they are old or unsold. I don’t want those cars. If I see one, I will immediately take Flying Horse to court!” Finn Lewis snorted coldly.

“Yes, yes, yes.” This middle-aged man nodded quickly.

“Truman Dale, show him out. From now on, we have no relation with Flying Horse,” Finn Lewis said immediately after, addressing Truman Dale standing on the side.

Flying Horse has not held a public press conference so far, naturally waiting until the final transition step is completed. However, upon this completion and the return to the company, every executive at Flying Horse was taken aback by the report received about Finn’s intentions.

They couldn’t figure out what exactly Finn Lewis intends to do. It was understandable that he had willingly spent an additional fifty million Federal coins to acquire the company, but why had he spent those fifty million to brand-lock the company, ensuring its disappearance from the car market? Had he done this out of spite because of Bonnie’s remarks? Bonnie herself seemed particularly shaken, as if she had taken a personal attack.

Most people thought that Bonnie’s comments were solely for negotiation purposes. However, those who knew her were aware that Bonnie genuinely loved the HyperCraft brand. She had been in charge of it previously and had ambitious plans for turning HyperCraft into the world’s premier luxury car brand, but her dreams had failed and she had ended up having to sell it. Although she hadn’t opposed the sale due to her lack of power in this situation, she’d come to despise Finn Lewis, especially considering her pre-existing prejudice.

Hearing the manager’s report about Finn Lewis’s plans for HyperCraft, Bonnie was enraged. How dare he?! How dare he buy the brand just to make it vanish? How dare he make a point of telling her?! Nobody knew how much effort she had poured into HyperCraft. Now, after more than a decade of dedication, the brand had disappeared just like that. Bonnie seemed dazed, possibly even shattered.

However, the other top executives of Flying Horse didn’t feel as devastated as Bonnie. After all, they had sold the brand at a good price. Still, knowing that the young man from Flame Nation who had bought their brand held it in such contempt, even suggesting that he didn’t care if the brand ended up in the toilet, left them all feeling very uneasy. They were truly uncomfortable!

Finn Lewis hardly cared whether they felt comfortable or not. In fact, he preferred it if they did not. If they were comfortable, he wouldn’t be. This was just the beginning. Eventually, he planned to make all of them pay. They had taken an extra fifty million of his money today, but one day, he would make them pay back fifty billion.

However bitter they felt, Flying Horse still needed to proceed with its operations. The following day, Flying Horse held a public press conference announcing that the HyperCraft brand, including its corresponding handcraft factory, had been fully sold at a price of six hundred million Federal coins. This news was met with considerable astonishment, as Flying Horse had previously launched a new HyperCraft car. Yet now, they were suddenly selling off the brand? This news was an instant headline in major media outlets worldwide.

However, Finn Lewis hardly cared about that. He was excitedly waiting for his first car. For this first car, all the materials Finn Lewis had ordered were finished products, such as the engines, electrical systems, etc. Furthermore, he used this purchasing strategy for all the materials he exchanged with his points in the early stages. This was because many of the processing techniques for these raw materials were beyond the capabilities of his current factory. More critically, this prevented any leaks.

Since the cars were only intended for personal use, he did not need to worry about such issues in the short run. It only cost him 200 points for the raw materials for one car. Finn Lewis found this incredibly cheap. The workers who chose to stay had to sign a strict confidentiality agreement before joining the assembly line. With Truman Dale overseeing matters, Finn didn’t feel the need to worry about anything.

All the materials, including the car interior trim, were custom-made by Finn Lewis. So, the only step left for the first car was the assembly. Given the experience of the workers, assembling one car did not take much time. Finn Lewis waited for a whole week in Kilron. After completing all the tests, his first car rolled off the production line.

Finn Lewis had no doubt about the quality of the car. However, the workers insisted that a car cannot simply roll off the production line without going through testing. In fact, without these testing data, the car could not even be driven legally. Although HyperCraft was a sub-brand under Flying Horse, each brand was actually a company in a microcosm..
