Date: June 9, 2009Time: 8:00 AMLocation: Aritra’s Bedroom, Dakshin BarasatThe morning sun had barely risen, yet Aritra was already seated at his desk, coffee in one hand and his other scrolling through live updates on his ptop screen. Sales figures for Nova One were still surging, each refresh of the dashboard confirming what he had anticipated—the phone was selling faster than they could manufacture it.
Orders had surpassed 8 million units worldwide, 3 million in India alone, causing their online ptform to crash twice from overwhelming demand. Retailers were pushing for more shipments, and Rajat had already sent a message urging immediate expansion of production.
Aritra let a small smirk form on his lips.
This was just the beginning.
He typed a quick response to Rajat, instructing him to increase production capacity by another 10 million units, but his focus wasn’t entirely on Nova One anymore. His next move was far bigger.
5G technology was the future, and while others were only beginning to research it, he had the advantage of acquiring fully-developed, future-grade infrastructure. If he could secure advanced 5G hardware now, his company wouldn’t just dominate smartphones—it would control global telecommunications.
He opened the Legendary System’s Technology Store, navigating to the Semiconductor & Telecommunications category. A fresh list of futuristic components and infrastructure appeared, dispying technologies that wouldn’t be avaible to the world for at least another decade.
Aritra carefully analyzed the options. He didn’t have unlimited funds, so every purchase had to be precise and calcuted.

Security: Real-time threat detectionEncryption: Post-Quantum Secure AlgorithmsAritra exhaled, scanning through the options. The Satellite-Based 5G System was undoubtedly the most game-changing technology on the list. With just 10 satellites, he could provide high-speed internet to the entire pnet, eliminating the need for traditional cell towers altogether.
But at 200 million per unit, even he couldn’t afford all 10 satellites in a single purchase.
He did some mental calcutions. After recent profits from Nova One, he had around 420 million in liquid funds. That meant he had to choose wisely.
He clicked on the purchase button for 2 of the Satellite-Based 5G Systems, setting him back 400 million. With just two satellites, he could already provide coverage to nearly 20% of the pnet—enough to start testing and limited deployment.
But satellites alone weren’t enough. He needed 5G chips and supporting infrastructure to actually integrate them into devices.

Ensures zero defects in chip productionAritra didn’t hesitate. He purchased one 7nm EUV Lithography Machine, one High-Energy Ion Impnter, and one AI-Driven Wafer Inspection System.
The total cost came to 87 million, leaving him with only a few million in reserves.
A notification popped up on his screen.
[Transaction Complete. Items added to System Inventory.]
His heart pounded as he leaned back. This was it.
He now owned the technology to build an independent 5G satellite network, and soon, the world would have no choice but to rely on his infrastructure.
His phone buzzed—a message from Ishita, his secretary.
“Should I arrange the production site for the new technology?”
Aritra typed back.
“Yes. Also, contact ISRO. We need unch services for our satellites.”
A few minutes ter, another message arrived.
“Understood. I’ll also start filing patents for every component we’ve acquired today.”
Aritra smirked, closing his ptop.
Tomorrow, his secretary would contact ISRO for the satellite unches, and the patents would lock down all his new 5G technologies.
By the time the world even realized what was happening, he would already own the future of global telecommunications.
