After the initial model was completed, the following progress would be very fast. 

Susan had established a team for the Al project with the aim of overcoming any challenges within a year. 

However, she and Ben indeed suffered from a misunderstanding and finally, the Al was created by them under 

such circumstances. 

The newly formed team didn’t even get a chance to contribute before the Al entered the testing phase. 

After testing Little Ben and Little Susan, the two NPCs, Ben and Susan modified some bugs. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with their Al program, Susan took the lead and officially announced the start of commercial research and development. 

Ben participated in the commercial research and development meeting, but it was presided over by Susan. 

Susan didn’t back down. She took a while to prepare and then started the meeting. 

The people who attended the meeting were the members of the Al team that had been formed, and the senior managers of all departments of the Storm Group. 

In the beginning, the people attending the meeting were all careless. 

They didn’t think that the team led by Susan had really made any amazing achievements. They just thought that Ben had lost his bottom line for doting his wife. 

Although Susan was capable, Mrs. Landor was still viewed as her most prominent identity in the eyes of most people 

Looking around at everyone’s expressions, Susan knew what was going on. 

She was not angry and could only calmly say, “The reason why I invited everyone to the meeting today is to tell everyone that under the collaborative efforts of Mr. King and myself, our team has made incredible progress on the Al project. If there are no objections, we hope to begin the commercial research phase.” 

“The Al project?” 

Everyone looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. 

When the project was initially announced, it was met with opposition from many. 

Over the years, Al–related products had become a trend, resulting in a surge of capital investments and a proliferation of projects. 

However, a few years had passed. 

Chapter 204 

Where were the people who had made great achievements on it? 

Not a single one. 

The progress of Al remained at the same level as it was a few years ago, with no signs of improvement. 

The current business of the Storm Group was communication, intelligent product hardware, intelligent product software, and so on. The hardware included computers, mobile phones, tablet PCs, and so on. The software consisted of systems and operating software developed in–house by the group. 

The Storm Group had always been at the forefront of science and technology. So its businesses had been developing very well at present, occupying a large market share in the Coraland and even the world. 

Under such circumstances, taking the risk to set up an Al project would naturally lead to a lot of objections. 

However, in the Storm Group, Ben had absolute authority. As he insisted, the team was formed. 

Outwardly, they didn’t say anything, but privately, many people criticized Ben for spoiling his wife. 

Furthermore, after Susan disappeared, Ben abandoned the company for her and went around the world to look for her. Although no one dared to say anything in front of him, they all had some opinions about Susan behind her 

back. 

Now that Susan had just returned, she suddenly announced that the Al project had been successfully developed. 

How could they believe it? 

Many people had spent a huge amount of money on it, but no progress was made after several years. 

As for Susan, she had established the project team less than six months ago, and for three of those months, she wasn’t even at the company. 

However, she announced that her research was successful. 

They didn’t believe in her words. 

Everyone was certain that Susan was boasting. 

But on the surface, they were still smiling. 

Someone said, “Mrs. Landor…” 

Ben knocked on the table. “You should call her Director Miller on such an occasion. The people working on the Al project will form a new department in the future. And Susan will be the manager.” 

Everyone was speechless.

It was obvious Ben was saying this to stand up for Susan. 

The person who spoke paused, then said, “Director Miller, we can understand your eagerness to make progress. However, commercial research and development is not a small matter. It requires a lot of investment. If we don’t see any real outcomes, we can only handle this by the book and vote against it.” 

“That’s right. Since we’ve gathered the senior managers to the meeting to discuss it, we’ll have to follow the procedure. If there are no stunning results, I won’t agree to the funding,” said the finance manager. 

The others also expressed their opinions one after another. 

Most of the people were asking Susan to show them the outcomes. 

The atmosphere in the Storm Group was relatively relaxed. Everyone spoke in a professional manner, not worried that Ben would be angry. 

After all, Ben was democratic most of the time. 

Everyone shared their doubts. 

At this moment, Ben was not in a hurry to stand up for Susan, 

He just sat there and waited for Susan to speak. 

After listening carefully to everyone’s opinions, Susan said with a smile, “I heard that we need at least two–thirds of 

the present people to agree before investing in a project.” 

“True, going by the book, that’s the way it should shake out,” Someone cautiously said. 

“But if Mr. Landor insists, we’ll listen to him.” Someone glanced at Ben. 

Ben raised his eyebrows. “Don’t look at me. This time, I won’t interfere with it. Everything depends on the result of your vote.” 

Many people heaved a sigh of relief. 

As long as Ben wasn’t out of his mind, everything would be fine. 

Susan saw everyone’s expressions. 

“Then I’ll make it a bit more difficult. If the number of people voting in favor does not exceed 90% for this vote, then it will be considered as not having passed,” said Susan calmly. 

90%? 

Everyone couldn’t help but look at each other.
