Michael looked at his system and it hasn't changed much on the mastery but on the system points, it was a lot. He recalled the mission that he had once received from the system. He scrolled down and found it.

[Mission: Start a software industry in the Philippines.]

[Reward: 200,000 system points]

[Description: With the emergence of Artificial Intelligence, the need for advanced software and hardware has never been greater. Establish a semiconductor industry in the Philippines to enhance the country's technological capabilities and secure a strategic advantage.]

This was the mission he couldn't take earlier because he had an insufficient balance to buy the quantum processors he needed to start a semiconductor company. Now, with 400,000 System Points, and knowing that it only cost around 150,000 system points for quantum processors, he realized he could now fulfill this mission.

He quickly navigated to the system's store and located the quantum processors. Without hesitation, he purchased them, watching his system points decrease to 250,000.

Michael knew this would be a game-changer for the Philippines. He envisioned a state-of-the-art semiconductor facility, equipped with the latest technology, capable of producing high-performance chips that could rival those from leading global manufacturers. This would not only boost the country's economy but also place it on the map as a major player in the tech industry.

"Juliet, can you come to my office?" he called over the intercom.

A few moments later, Juliet entered, her tablet in hand, ready for whatever task Michael had for her.

"Juliet, I have a new business venture in mind," Michael began, his tone serious yet excited. "I want to start a semiconductor company here in the Philippines."

Juliet raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "A semiconductor company? That's a significant move. Do you have a specific plan in mind?"

"Yes," Michael nodded. "I have a design here that I believe could rival international companies. This will not only boost our technological capabilities but also create jobs and put the Philippines on the global tech map."

Juliet's eyes lit up with the potential of the project. "That sounds incredible. Do you have a location or facility in mind?"

"That's where I need your help," Michael admitted. "Is there an existing company or facility in the Philippines that we can acquire to jumpstart this venture?"

Juliet thought for a moment, then shook her head. "I'm not aware of any off the top of my head, but I can certainly research it. Give me some time, and I'll find potential companies or facilities that we could acquire."

"Thank you, Juliet. This is a critical project, and I trust you'll find the best options," Michael said, appreciating her proactive attitude.

Juliet nodded and left the office, immediately starting her research. Michael felt confident that with Juliet on the case, they would soon have a clear path forward for their new venture.

Several hours later, Juliet returned with a report in hand. "Michael, I've found a few potential companies and facilities that we could consider for acquisition."

She laid out her findings on the table, detailing each option. "First, there's a facility in Laguna that used to be a semiconductor manufacturing plant. It's currently closed but still in good condition. Second, there's a company in Cavite that specializes in electronic components. They have a small-scale production line that could be scaled up with investment."

Michael reviewed the options carefully. "Both seem like viable options. The facility in Laguna sounds promising due to its existing infrastructure. What do you think?"

"I agree," Juliet said. "The Laguna facility would likely be the quickest to get up and running, given its history. We would need to invest in updating the equipment and technology, but it's a solid foundation."

"Alright, let's move forward with investigating the Laguna facility further," Michael decided. "Can you arrange a visit so we can assess it in person?"

"Absolutely," Juliet replied. "I'll set up a meeting with the current owners and arrange for a tour of the facility."

"Excellent. Let's aim to visit within the next few days," Michael said, feeling the momentum building. "This is going to be a significant step for us and for the Philippines."

Juliet left to make the necessary arrangements, while Michael began planning the next stages of the venture.

Two days later, Michael and Juliet arrived at the former semiconductor manufacturing plant in Laguna. The facility, though closed, still stood tall with its robust infrastructure. The current owner, Mr. De Leon was waiting at the entrance to greet them.

"Welcome, Mr. Reyes, Ms. Juliet," Mr. De Leon said warmly as he shook their hands. "I'm glad you're interested in this facility. It has a lot of potential, even though it hasn't been operational for some time."

"Thank you, Mr. De Leon," Michael replied. "We're looking forward to seeing what the facility has to offer."

Mr. De Leon led them on a tour of the facility, showcasing the expansive manufacturing floor, the various sections dedicated to different stages of semiconductor production, and the storage areas for raw materials and finished products. Despite being unused for a while, the facility was in remarkably good condition, requiring only some updates to the equipment and technology.

"As you can see, the infrastructure is still solid," Mr. De Leon explained. "With the right investment, this place could be up and running in no time."

Michael nodded, impressed with what he saw. "This is exactly what we need. The layout and the existing infrastructure will save us a lot of time and resources. Juliet, what do you think?"

Juliet glanced around, taking in the details. "I agree. The facility has great potential, and with some modernization, it can meet our needs perfectly."

"Excellent," Michael said. "Mr. De Leon, let's discuss the terms for acquiring this facility. We're serious about moving forward quickly."
