Rina continued her conversation with Ava after she calmed down.

"Now that I have been assigned to the financial company, as you guys wanted, can you show me the plan?" She had previously asked to see the plans, but she was told that it was not yet completed and was still being collected.

[A few hours ago, the plan was sent to me. My mother said that it had gone through a few revisions to fit the conditions of your assigned company. Here it is,] Ava replied as she immediately pulled up the plan on her screen to show it to Rina.

Rina wasted no time and started reading through the plan immediately. She had been eagerly waiting for this information for over a month, being told repeatedly that it was not yet complete.

As Rina finished reading the first page, she had to pause and take a deep breath. The information on that single page had almost made her forget to breathe  from fear.

"Are you sure that they really came up with this plan?" Rina asked as the plan was something a level higher than brutal. 

Ava didn't directly answer Rina's question, but instead replied, "It gets worse, just keep reading." This implied that the following pages of the plan contained even more alarming information than the first page.

Rina didn't say anything in response to Ava's comment, but instead quickly moved to the second page of the plan to continue reading. She was eager to find out what other alarming details the plan contained.

As Rina continued reading through the plan, her heart sank further with each passing page. Eventually, the fear became so overwhelming that she began shaking uncontrollably. The information contained in the plan was beyond what she had ever imagined, and the consequences of its implementation seemed dire.

Ava saw that Rina was becoming overwhelmed with fear, so she quickly turned off the screen and said [Rina calm down] Ava said in a soothing tone, reassuring her. She was worried that Rina might faint if she continued reading the plan in her current state.

"How can I possibly calm down? Are you sure you read the plan? If you had read it, you wouldn't be so calm either!" Rina exclaimed, her frustration and fear evident in her voice.

Ava responded calmly, [Yes, I have read the plan.]

"Then why are you asking me to calm down if you have read the plan?" Rina questioned Ava with a trembling voice.

[I am calm because, firstly, I am an Artificial Intelligence, and secondly, I have read the entire plan. This includes not only the plan of the Morgans, but also the one created by Mother to counter it,] Ava calmly explained to Rina.

"Ooh" Rina said, realizing that the reason for not getting the plan earlier was due to it being incomplete and the need to create a counter-plan.

Remembering, Rina quickly returned to her screen to continue reading after Ava re-opened it.

This time, Rina remained composed and forced herself to finish reading Morgan's plan.

After finishing reading the Morgan's plan, Rina immediately shifted her focus to the countermeasures that Ana's mother had prepared.

As Rina began to read the countermeasures, her complexion slowly returned to normal, and the color began to come back to her face.

"Wow," Rina exclaimed. She couldn't help but be impressed by the countermeasures outlined in Ana's mother's plan. She was certain that if they were able to implement these measures before the Morgans carried out their own plan, it would result in slaughtering the Morgans for the second time in ten years.

One week had passed since Felix's appointment as the CEO of the soon-to-be merged company. He was now about to have the company's first official meeting with the vice CEO he had recently appointed.

The purpose of the meeting was to deliberate on the necessary measures to be taken after the completion of the ongoing consolidation.

Inside the meeting room, the CEO and the vice CEO Liam, sat across from each other, delving into the details of their discussion.

Thirty minutes had elapsed since the meeting began, and the CEO and the vice CEO had already covered a variety of topics. One such topic was the fate of workers with identical job roles across the four companies that were in the midst of consolidation.

"We will evaluate their experience and retain those who exhibit strong work ethics," Felix stated before moving on to other topics.

They continued discussing various topics until they finally arrived at the subject of upgrading the telecommunication infrastructure.

This time Liam interjected, "In order to upgrade the infrastructure, we need to conduct a thorough assessment of the current state of the telecommunications infrastructure in the country. 

Following this assessment, we can develop a comprehensive plan for upgrading the infrastructure. Once that is done, we will need to secure funding for the project." His expertise in the matter was apparent.

"You needn't worry about the assessment of the infrastructure; we already have it," Felix assured Liam as he pushed a thick folder towards him. "Take a look at it," he added.

Liam received the thick folder from Felix and swiftly skimmed through its contents to gain a basic understanding. He planned to review it in greater detail after the meeting had concluded.

As Liam flipped through the pages, he was pleasantly surprised by the level of detail included in the assessment. It was comprehensive, leaving no stone unturned. It provided him with all the information he needed to know, and even highlighted areas that he might have overlooked as unimportant.

"This report is incredibly thorough. Who wrote it and when was it completed?" Liam inquired, curious about the amount of time that would have been required to produce such a comprehensive assessment.

"I don't have an exact date, and there is a dedicated team handling all the planning. However, the assessment should have all the necessary information for our plan," Felix answered concisely. He was also uncertain of the timeline as the assessment had been sent to him together with the phase two plans.

Liam moved the conversation forward by suggesting, "Therefore, we should act quickly and begin to develop a comprehensive plan for the infrastructure upgrade."

Without uttering a word, Felix slid another folder across the table to Liam for his perusal.

Liam picked up the folder and began to sift through its contents. "From the same team?" he asked Felix.

"Indeed it is," confirmed Felix, falling silent and allowing Liam to read the materials contained within the folder at his leisure.

As Liam perused the infrastructure upgrade plan, he was once again taken aback by its level of detail and thoroughness.

The infrastructure upgrade plan that Liam reviewed was nothing short of impressive. It outlined specific objectives to achieve such as increasing coverage, improving quality, and decreasing costs. What made it even more impressive was the timeline for the upgrade, which included goals for the short, medium, and long-term.

However, what caught Liam off guard was the budget for the short-term goals. The plan stated that it would be entirely privately funded, with a budget of 100 million dollars. The medium and long-term goals were left without a budget, as another round of assessment is necessary before any decision could be made.

The plan also detailed the strategy for introducing new technologies such as 4G/LTE networks, fiber-optic cables, and satellite-based services. 

The short-term plan would be the deployment of 4G/LTE networks, followed by the installation of fiber-optic cables as a short and medium-term plan. Satellite-based services would be a long-term plan.

Furthermore, the plan addressed the challenge of increasing access to telecommunications services in remote and rural areas. This would involve the deployment of additional cell towers and broadband infrastructure.

Overall, the plan was comprehensive and well thought-out.

Liam was so impressed by the plan that all he could manage to say was a simple "wow".

Felix chuckled at Liam's reaction and said, "I told you we have a competent team working on this project. The plan is comprehensive and realistic, and it should help us achieve our goals for the infrastructure upgrade."

Liam nodded in agreement and added, "I'm particularly impressed with the inclusion of plans for rural and remote areas. It shows that we're not just focused on urban areas"

Felix nodded in approval and added, "It's our duty to ensure that they're not left behind in the digital age. It's a win-win situation for both our business and the community." not knowing the real reason Aron wanted the whole country to be connected to the internet.

Felix asked Liam, "Can you provide me with an estimated timeline for completing the implementation of the short-term plan?" Felix needed to report a timeline to Aron and was seeking information from Liam.

Liam replied, "Due to the high budget, we can hire different teams to work on similar projects in different parts of the country simultaneously. This way, we should be able to complete the short-term upgrade within three months at the latest. 

However, I will need to review the plan in more detail to come up with a more accurate timeline, but I am confident that it won't take more than three months." Liam sounded assured while answering Felix's question.

After the brief discussion with Liam, the meeting came to an end, and everyone left to return to their respective offices in the rental building.
