Mr. Foster reached out today. He said the enemy's system has been upgraded. It's a lot like ours and very powerful. He wants us to develop a new one. They're also asking for a more advanced fighter jet. Looks like a big job, and the payout should be good." Brenna tapped her fingers lightly against the desk. “I'll take charge of both projects myself. You handle the pricing. Set the system at seventy million. The fighter jet goes for two hundred million." Brenna sat across from Tommy as he poured her a fresh cup of coffee and slid it across the table. "Braeden wants to meet and go over the details," he said.
Brenna nodded. "That's fine. We need a clear understanding of the client's requirements before designing. I'm available to meet him anytime," she replied.
Tommy admired her unwavering confidence. She was a force to be reckoned with.
He said, "Alright. I'll get in touch with Braeden and arrange a meeting. If we secure these two projects, I'll assign a few people to help you with the component designs. A fighter jet consists of tens of thousands of parts, making it impossible for one person to handle the entire design. Teamwork is essential for completing the project efficiently." After hashing out a few more details, Tommy added, "By the way, someone has been trying to poach our staff. Three employees mentioned they were invited out for dinners, and apparently, the offers thrown at them were hard to resist. I think they are indirectly asking for raises." Brenna's face remained composed, though a flicker of displeasure crossed her eyes. "People will do what they will, and we can't control everything. I have already offered them good salaries. If they want to leave, let them." Tommy realized Brenna had no intention of raising the salaries. After all, even junior engineers at their firm earned a million per year, and as a supervisor, he was already making close to ten million annually, plus year- end bonuses. Such generous pay was already rare, even among publicly listed companies.

Moreover, those three are at the bottom of the rank in our studio. If they leave, they won't make it big elsewhere. In a larger company, they won't rise to a supervisory position. I'll try to talk ssense into them." Brenna nodded. Those with skills far beyond the three were already earning much more, and no big company would offer such generous salaries. Therefore, the truly high-caliber talent in their stuwouldn't be easily poached.
"However, if they do leave, we will be short-handed. Brenna, why don't we recruit a few more people? There are sexcellent postgraduates from Shirie University. I have a list right here. If you agree, I'll reach out to them," Tommy said, his eyes lighting up with excitement.
After a pause, he continued, "I have been keeping an eye on these postgraduates for stnow. They stood out during their undergraduate years and even took hinternational awards. Our stuhas worked closely with their mentor, who has given glowing recommendations for these five." Brenna agreed, saying, “Okay. I'm not afraid to offer competitive salaries, but I'm just worried we won't find real talent. Go ahead and contact them."
Brenna had complete confidence in Tommy's judgment. Not only was his design work exceptional but Asm veT business instincts were sharp as well. He had recruited half of the studio's staff, and as twent by, his excellence was proven.
It was the weekend, and since Giselle didn't have any took the opponeses to teach, she to wake Brenna up early.
Brenna had been up late the night before, fine-tuning a helicopter m system she hadn't finished Now, exhaustion weighed her down, and she groaned, burying her face deeper into the pillow. "Please, just letsleep a little longer," she said.
