With the state's mediation, several domestic ocean shipping companies on the brink of bankruptcy were sold to Dream Technology. As a result, Dream Transportation's fleet increased to 40 ships, with a total carrying capacity of one million tons. Not only that, but a large number of experienced crew members also joined Dream Transportation. This significantly improved Dream Transportation's carrying capacity.

On the other hand, with the state's assistance, Dream Technology's domestic material procurement and transportation became much more effortless. In a very short time, a large amount of materials was gathered at various ports across the country and then quietly transported to Misty Island by Dream Transportation's fleet.

Simultaneously, the state also dispatched a large number of professionals to support the construction of Misty Island. With the addition of these experienced professionals, the quality of construction on Misty Island became more assured, and the progress further accelerated.

Misty Island was still under construction, and in order not to complicate matters unnecessarily, it was imperative to keep the development of Misty Island confidential at this stage. After the state got involved, the allocation of personnel and materials by Dream Technology became even more secretive and less likely to raise any suspicion under the guidance of various professionals.

Yan Fei, busy with the development and construction of Misty Island, found that time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, a year had completely gone by. By the time he realized it, it was already New Year's Day of the second year. It had been more than halfway a year since Yan Fei first started the land reclamation project on Misty Island.

By now, Misty Island had undergone significant changes. Compared to its desolate state before, the island was now teeming with life. One glance revealed green plants everywhere. Located in the Northern Hemisphere, at the same latitude as Tokyo, Japan, it should have been very cold now, with plants in a dead state. But for some unknown reason, the temperatures on Misty Island had not dropped during winter; it remained very warm and suitable for plant growth.

Under such conditions, the plants seemed to have been stimulated with hormones. After getting through the initial adaptation period after seeding, they started to grow wildly, completely covering the island. Even now, in winter, they had not withered but instead were lush and green, like a grassland.

The port area of Misty Island had been fully constructed and could now be called a qualified port. The workers who had completed the port construction tasks had already crossed the Yellow Sand Dam and entered the innermost New Land area, starting to remodel and construct the new land according to Yan Fei's plans.

After the passing of the old year, Lu Pingping personally delivered the annual financial report to Yan Fei. This financial report detailed a series of substantial achievements Dream Technology had made over the past year.

In the past year, Dream Technology had launched all its skin application products on the International Market, bringing the total number of products introduced to nine. Coupled with the previously hot-selling Weight Loss Cookies and a few other skin application products, the company's total sales for the year reached a terrifying 800 billion RMB, equivalent to 120 billion US Dollars. After all the taxes and costs were deducted, Dream Technology's net profit for the year was 400 billion RMB, or 60 billion US Dollars.

Yan Fei was very pleased with the financial report provided by Lu Pingping. If he had been in charge of Dream Technology himself, he could have sold the products worldwide, but he would have likely only achieved a revenue of 200 billion RMB. There might even have been a counterattack from competitors, leading to possible failure. This also showed how formidable Lu Pingping's management skills were.

Although Dream Technology achieved brilliant performance last year, because of the extensive development of Misty Island, the vast majority of the profit was invested back into its construction, meaning Dream Technology did not undertake developments in other areas. Moreover, due to Yan Fei's constant use of the Drone's Energy Points, the Auxiliary Brain's Technology Analysis System did not have spare Energy Points to carry out Technology Analysis. Therefore, the Drone did not deduce any products that could lead the era throughout the year.

In the past three months, Dream Technology seemed somewhat quiet, not launching any new products, in stark contrast to the splendor of releasing one new product per month previously. However, given Dream Technology's precedent of releasing one best-selling product every month for a year, market professionals did not take this lightly. Instead, they thought Dream Technology was preparing a significant move and would burst forth with immense energy anytime soon. Hence, they remained vigilant, not wanting to be caught off guard by Dream Technology.

This year, Dream Technology introduced a series of skin cosmetics and care products, now selling hot in the market. Due to the popularity of these products, the sales of traditional International Cosmetics Giants plummeted. They could only struggle to survive, relying on a few loyal customers. However, if the situation does not reverse, they were at risk of bankruptcy and closure at any moment.

Under Lu Pingping's leadership, Dream Technology pressed on triumphantly after withstanding the final counterattacks from the national cosmetics giants. Moreover, Dream Technology's products performed amazingly after use by consumers, bringing them surprises. Those consumers who experienced these surprises began to promote Dream Technology Products spontaneously on the Internet, significantly boosting their popularity and reputation. This enhanced recognition, in turn, propelled further sales. With Dream Technology's products leading the way, those of the International Cosmetics Giants became dull by comparison, even used as negative comparatives, resulting in their consumers being largely snatched away by Dream Technology's products.
