[First, it was BrewHeaven that crushed Sunbucks, then Next Gen came with incredible software one after another followed by VR helmet monopoly and cabins.]

[Next Gen is really quite ahead of its time.]

[We already know that but the crux is what they are going to unveil in the event this time.]

In Daxia...

A grave atmosphere prevailed following the Next Gen's excitement.

Linwei Ding sat in his office at Youkou, a tall building in Daxia. The room was dark, and the screens around him showed their latest products, but today, they just reminded him of how far behind they had fallen. As news about Next Gen's Innovations spread, he slammed his hand on his desk, shattering the silence of the quiet room.

"What are we going to do now?" he muttered, exasperated. Every time he thought they were closing the gap, Next Gen would release something so amazing that would make their work seem useless.

Linwei had once felt proud of his ability to create copies of the latest tech things with better specs at completely low affordable prices but now every time he tried to copy what Next Gen created, it felt like an impossible task.

Steven Hook sat at the head of the long, sleek conference table in the Pears' headquarters, his gaze fixed on the large screen displaying the latest news about Next Gen Innovations. The buzz around their recent event made him uneasy, an ominous feeling tightening in his chest as he considered the implications of Next Gen's rapid advancements.

"Something doesn't feel right," he muttered, rubbing the back of his neck. Around him, the room was filled with his closest advisors, each one sharing a mix of excitement and apprehension as they discussed the impact of Next Gen's latest releases.

Pears had been enjoying a wave of success recently, with their own products gaining popularity, Yet, Steven couldn't shake the worry that they were on the verge of being overshadowed.

"Gather the team," he instructed, his voice steady but laced with concern. "I want a full investigation into what Evan is planning next. We need to know what's coming. Their technology is evolving too quickly, and I can't help but feel like they're gearing up for something big."

As his team mobilized, Steven leaned back in his chair, deep in thought. Business at Pears had been strong, with the recent launch of several products driving strong revenue. However, the shadow of Next Gen loomed large, and their relentless innovation felt like a storm gathering on the horizon, one that would leave Pears in its shadow.

The recent success of Pears' own applications had brought in significant revenue, but the threat from Next Gen made Steven uneasy.

While they were positioned well in the market, he couldn't ignore the fact that Next Gen was stealing attention and customers with every new development. Their VR helmet and cabins were drawing massive interest, and Steven feared that Pears would quickly become yesterday's news if they couldn't keep up.

Meanwhile, Pears and Macrosoft, once advertising giants, had started to destabilize. At first, it was them who had started going ahead of Macrosoft with the help of stolen software from Evan, but in the next few moments Macrosoft struck back with a VR helmet but it didn't create any significant impact since the sales were low but...

Everything changed with games. Now, Macrosoft and Omega Corps had a full monopoly of VR games with no other companies even being able to come close.

"Why do I feel this way?" Steven wondered, his brow furrowing as he gazed out the window at the bustling city below.

"That boy...I should have just eliminated him when I had the chance?"

In fact, he couldn't think that such a genius could exist. Everything that guy was producing seemed to be centuries ahead of their time.

The atmosphere in the room shifted as Steven's advisors began to report back on the latest trends and data. They spoke of increased competition and mounting market volatility, and the more they discussed, the deeper his concern grew. The pressure was real, and Steven felt the weight of his role pressing down heavily on his shoulders.

"Keep a close eye on their strategies," he instructed firmly. "We need to anticipate their moves before they can pull the rug out from under us. I won't let Pears fall behind."

With a renewed sense of urgency, Steven dismissed the meeting and set his sights on what lay ahead.
