When a struggling graduating student failed his capstone project, he got frustrated and attempted to take his own life. The moment he was about to take a leap, a voice stopped him and handed him a strange box and disappeared. 

As he got home, he opened the box and saw a strange usb device and a set of strange pills. Later he found out that the USB contained inventions from the 20th to 23rd century, and the pills were a nootopic drug. 

With this discovery, his life would soon change from an outcast of the family to the world’s powerful businessman that would create companies that would rival top companies around the world.

"Microturbine Disruption: How Sentinel's Aerus May Kill the EV Monopoly" — TechCrunch


"Too Good to Be True? Experts Skeptical of Turbine Vehicle Claims" — Automotive Insider

"Global exposure estimate," Julian announced. "Eighty million impressions in thirty-six hours. Sentiment running 64% positive, 22% neutral, 14% negative. Highest engagement from Southeast Asia, Japan, and Australia."
