At Viridian City's airport, Young Master Mao, dressed in a white cashmere sweater, black trousers, and a scarf, was on a video call with his assistant.
With the Rotom Phone business growing rapidly, his assistant W had suggested partnering with Kanto's Silph Co. to establish a branch in Kanto.
Gary gave it some thought, then simply gave W Matori's number. With "Blue Executive" personally putting in a word,
the two career-driven women had all the details of the branch office neatly settled in a single afternoon.
"Boss, all our projects are progressing very smoothly. Silph Co. hasn't put up any roadblocks at all. They've even offered us an office building in the central business district," the silver-haired woman reported to Gary, her face full of admiration.
"Well, we're all on the same side, after all. Just discuss anything that comes up with Matori." Gary waved a casual hand.
Young Master Mao, who would only be twelve by traditional age reckoning after the New Year, had already achieved financial freedom. As for those numbers, he only needed to know they were still growing on their own.
When it came to his age, Young Master Mao, who had already grown to a towering 175 centimeters, felt a little pressured.
With that height, he could pass for a sixteen-year-old wherever he went.
Even counting generously, Young Master Mao would only be seventeen when the Pokémon World Championships began.
"Tsk, tsk. I really am in the flower of youth." Young Master Mao nodded in satisfaction.
"By the way, Boss, about our gaming division, our designers are still a little lacking in innovation. I was wondering..." W asked cautiously.
Although Glory Pokémon League had become a nationwide mobile gaming hit as soon as it launched, all their other mobile games had received only lukewarm responses.
