Chapter 34 - The Press Conference|
The massive press room at the downtown convention center was absolutely packed to the brim with flashing cameras and eager journalists. The rapid, strategic maneuver to legally transfer the core algorithm's strict licensing rights to our charitable foundation had completely caught the financial world off guard. I stepped confidently up to the wooden podium, immediately blinded by the bright, flashing lights, but I stood incredibly tall and completely resolute.
"Good morning, everyone," I began loudly, my clear voice echoing powerfully through the large speakers. "Today, I am incredibly proud to publicly announce a truly unprecedented, historic step forward in our ongoing commitment to global ethical technology. As of precisely eight o'clock this morning, the exclusive, irrevocable licensing rights to our most advanced data processing algorithms have been permanently legally transferred to our global humanitarian foundation."
A loud, chaotic murmur instantly rippled rapidly through the crowded room as the eager reporters quickly processed the massive implications of the sudden announcement.
"What exactly does this heavily mean for the aggressive, hostile takeover bid recently initiated by Vanguard Holdings?" a tall reporter from a major financial network shouted loudly over the growing din.
"It means that the critical technology they are aggressively seeking is no longer a corporate asset that can be hostilely purchased or ruthlessly leveraged," I answered smoothly, a confident, triumphant smile playing on my lips. "It is now completely legally protected and entirely dedicated to powering free, global educational platforms and critical emergency medical response systems in severely underdeveloped nations. Any aggressive attempt to forcefully seize this technology is now a direct, malicious attack on those vital, life-saving humanitarian efforts."
"Are you specifically accusing Silas Thorne of attempting to actively destroy a charitable organization?" another sharp journalist asked quickly, thrusting a heavy microphone forward.

"I am simply stating the undeniable, legally binding facts," I replied calmly, maintaining my professional composure perfectly. "Our massive tech empire was fundamentally built to heavily protect and vastly elevate human life. We will absolutely never allow our powerful innovations to be forcefully corrupted by endless, blind corporate greed. The charitable foundation's critical work will boldly continue, completely uninterrupted and permanently protected."
I smoothly stepped away from the busy podium, heavily surrounded by my protective security team, knowing perfectly well that I had just successfully executed a flawless, devastating checkmate against Vanguard Holdings.
