Chapter 165 - [A1] launching event [III]

"Mr. Kagami, the whole world is currently looking at you. You can explain or maybe at least tell us the reason why you suddenly decided to change your nationality. Before you were a Kanto region citizen but now you're the part of Kalos region. Did the Indigo League in any way influence you to make this decision?" Itsuki narrowed his eyes and looked at the blond-haired journalist for a second. From the beginning, this woman has been trying to make Itsuki say some controversial stuff.

.

"I believe that every person in this world has the right to change their citizenship according to their own free will. I wouldn't deny that a small part of my decision was influenced by some external factors but I did this because I felt it was the right thing to do. My decision to move to Kalos reason has many personal reasons which I don't feel like sharing. But I would like to add that my decision to move was not because of Kanto. I grew up in Kanto and I still love that region very much. I would also like to apologize to all of the fans in the Kanto region."

.

Itsuki could have just said many negative things about Kanto explaining why he left Kanto. Itsuki didn't say that because now that Itsuki was going to launch his [A1] all over the world, Itsuki cannot make the fans who are already angry because he permanently left Kanto, even more, angrier with his words.

.

Besides saying all that stuff, Itsuki would receive nothing but hate from Kanto's citizens which Itsuki doesn't want.

Scarlett couldn't help but smile seeing how intelligently Itsuki answered this question while maintaining his calm all the time. Itsuki used her question to also apologize to his Kanto fans and gain their support.

.

"Mr. Itsuki, do you have any plans for the upcoming Kalos League, which will be held after 8 months?" Scarlett gave up knowing that she wouldn't able to get any controversial words from Itsuki. She instead now asked the most obvious and anticipated question among Itsuki's millions of fans.

Itsuki nodded with a smile on his face. "Now if you're done with your questions let us begin." Scarlett nodded and sat down with a satisfied look.

.

[Have you people ever wondered what would happen if we had a device that could allow us to communicate with our loved ones who live far away from us with? Can you imagine a device that has the function to take pictures? Can you imagine a device that can scan Pokemon and replace old generation Pokedex? Can you imagine a device that is big as my palm and can be carried anywhere?] By now all the people's curiosity had reached the peak of hearing Itsuki's words.

.

With a smile on his face, Itsuki continued with a mysterious vibe. [We live in 2022. In this modern age, many new technologies have been invented and we regularly use them to make our daily life even more easy and smooth. Hundred years ago, there were no Pokemon centers in the world. But nowadays even a rural village has a Pokemon center. Hundred years ago, the mode of communication was a written letter. But now just by paying 2 P$, we can communicate with our friends or families who live in a foreign land. We have progressed so much with technology.]

.

[What if I told you that what I am about to show has the power to make our lives 10 times if not 100 times easier. Ladies and Gentlemen, without further ado let me present you with the world change device.] The screen behind Itsuki displayed an image of [A1]. Itsuki also took out the [A1] from his pocket.

[This is [A1], which is Azure 1st generation. This is the first mobile phone in this world that runs with the iOS operating system. The [A1] measures 150.9mm tall, 75.7mm wide, and 8.3mm thick. 12-megapixel dual camera at the back and a 12-megapixel selfie camera at the front.]

.

Amaterasu then walked up to the stage carrying a black version of the [A1] in her hand. Itsuki had decided Amaterasu to take things from here on. Itsuki felt a native of this world who never has seen a smartphone would be able to describe all the functions of [A1] better than Itsuki himself. Besides, Amaterasu has worked day and night for this and she deserves this.

.

After giving Itsuki a nod, Amaterasu took things over. She carefully started explaining all the functions of the [A1]. All the cameras were focused on her. Itsuki using this chance slowly walked down the stage and left the conference room.

'I have let Amaterasu have the very first [A1] which was ready one month ago. By now she should have known and experienced all the functions and abilities of the [A1].' Itsuki didn't need to worry about Amaterasu messing up.

.

'At first, I set out to make songs and make a cheap copy of Youtube but who would be thought that I would jump so high and end up making this world's very first smartphone. Fortunately, I had asked Amaterasu to make a patent so no other company would be able to make a cheap copy of my mobile. With the system in my hand, I would have a monopoly over the smartphone industry. This is just the first step. Now even the Kanto Association won't able to ignore or bully my existence. One you have to think twice before they mess with me maybe except for that secret organization.' Itsuki walked back to this office where he found Serena was busy with her new mobile.

.

"Excuse me Miss, are you still with us?" Serena raised her head and looked at Itsuki with stars shining in her eyes.

"Itsuki, what is this Pokegram? I can upload my pictures and I even chat with other people." The Pokegram was a cheap copy of Instagram but Itsuki was never going to admit it.

Itsuki just smiled and sat next to Serena.

.

Itsuki had decided to custom make some [A1] smartphones for the people who were close to him. The [A1] that Itsuki was using a white in color and had his name written on the back in blue color.

Itsuki did the same for Serena, Cynthia, Luna, Copper, Brock, Amaterasu, his parents, Grace, Bianca, Lorenzo, Latias, Carolina, and Shizuka, and some other people.

.

"Itsuki come here." Like an excited child, Serena pulled Itsuki closer to her. Itsuki could smell amazing her body's fragrance from being too close to her even though she didn't wear any perfume today.

"Let's take a selfie together." Serena moved her head closer to Itsuki and then clicked the button.

Click!

.

"Serena, do want to go somewhere together?" Itsuki asked feeling bored. Now that Amaterasu was taking things over, there was no need for Itsuki to be worried anymore. Itsuki could relax and leave things in Amaterasu's hand. Itsuki was confident that she would be able to take care of things.

Serena put her pink color [A1] down on her lap and looked at Itsuki. "Where do you want to go?" Inwardly she was very excited.

"Anywhere you want." Seeing Itsuki looking straight into her eyes, Serena blushed slightly and lowered her head.

.

"Then let's go to this new amazing park which I heard had opened not too long ago." Itsuki nodded his head in agreement. Itsuki hadn't been to a park for a long time. The park was the perfect place for him to relax and not worry about other things.

Itsuki and Serena left the office and they spent the rest of the day together. Itsuki called Grace and his mother to let them know that he and Serena won't be returning home tonight.

.

Next morning,

At 7 in the morning, Itsuki was woken up by Amaterasu's call.

"Itsuki, you won't believe what I have to tell you." Itsuki could hear Amaterasu'a excited trembling voice. From her excited tone, Itsuki knew that his [A1] was a massive success.

"Just yesterday, we have sold more than 1.5 million mobile phones just in Kalos region and the number is still increasing as I speak. We also received about 5 million orders yesterday itself. The total number of smartphones that we sold yesterday all over the world was about 9 million."

.

Each [A1] was sold for 500 P$. This means just yesterday, Itsuki profited over 4.5 billion P$ from selling 9 million [A1]. If Itsuki were to add all the 5 million orders with 9 million, then his company has made over 7 billion P$. Since Itsuki's company was a private company, all the profits would straight come to Itsuki's pocket.

.

"Amaterasu, I can't thank you enough for what you did. Without your hard work, this wouldn't have been possible." Itsuki replied in a sincere tone.

"I should also thank you. You changed the entire sinking company within 2 months. Without your ideas and help, this wouldn't have been possible. I will talk to you later. I have some work to do." laying on the bed, Itsuki opened his Pokegram and messaged Cynthia who by now should have received the [A1] that Itsuki sent her 1 week ago.
