Hide identity, survive internship, rescue the company
A powerful CEO vanishes into the ranks of a fledgling AI firm, earning a pittance while colleagues mock his age and dismiss his input. The condescension fuels a quiet campaign: he spots fatal flaws in their strategy, rewrites the roadmap, and outmaneuvers the saboteurs plotting a takeover. As the startup rallies, his hidden authority surfaces just enough to shield the team and reveal the conspirators, proving influence follows competence, not a corner office.
