With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

Shen Ci put down her chopsticks and slowly turned to face Gu Shangyou: "Gu's Group entered the field when artificial intelligence was just emerging. This shows Gu's pioneering spirit and foresight in the industry. Now that Gu's Group has become a pioneer in this field in China, it must be tolerant of new things and have a strong acceptance of them in order to allow Gu's artificial intelligence to reach where it is today."

In other words, clinging to old ways will ultimately lead to falling behind others.

Shen Ci didn't need to say it explicitly; Gu Shangyou naturally understood.

But Shen Ci wasn't there to be Gu Shangyou's "life mentor." She needed to reach a cooperation agreement with Gu's company. She said these things just to show that their project was something new, a fresh technology that was about to enter the industry.

Gu Shangyou looked at Shen Ci. Despite her young age, she spoke to him with such composure. Lianxing was the same age as her, but she was still a child.

"You seem very confident in your project," Gu Shangyou said slowly. "Uncle wants to ask you, do you know how many people are in just one data team within Gu's artificial intelligence department?"

Shen Ci shook her head; she didn't know.

Gu Shangyou said, "There are more than 60 people, and there are more than a dozen such groups in this department alone."

Shen Ci laughed: "Uncle Gu, are you saying that a department with hundreds of people in the Gu family is definitely more capable than my eight-person team? I don't agree with that. Probability can indeed verify the truth most of the time, but sometimes the truth is in the hands of a minority."

"When Newton discovered universal gravitation, there were billions of people in the world. Since life appeared on Earth, things have been falling from heights every day, yet only Newton discovered gravity."

“My example may be a bit extreme, but there are countless similar cases in history. As a successful entrepreneur, Uncle Gu should also know that the earliest initial code for artificial intelligence was written by a small group of a few people. You cannot underestimate us just because the team is small.”

Gu Lianxing pouted and muttered under her breath, "That's right..."

Gu Shangyou glanced at his daughter, chuckled, and nodded: "I understand that principle. Uncle doesn't mean any disrespect to you. I just have reservations about people and things that I don't know. That's just my usual way of doing things."

"Uncle, could you give us a chance? After all, words are not enough; practice is the sole criterion for testing truth. We'll know whether we succeed or not once we try!" Shen Ci pleaded earnestly.

Gu Lianxing couldn't hold back any longer: "Dad, you kicked out Senior Brother Luo and the others without even asking what happened back then. Now that Shen Ci has asked you for help, are you going to refuse them a second time?"

Even Mrs. Gu couldn't help but speak up for Shen Ci: "Hasn't the Gu family always encouraged young people to be bold and daring? The company has even set up a special innovation fund for young people. I see that Shen Ci and his team are all recent graduates. It's not easy for young people to start a business, so please give them a chance."

Shen Ci looked at Mrs. Gu with gratitude in her eyes, then turned to Gu Shangyou and said, "Uncle, if this works out, it will be a win-win situation for us. If it doesn't work out, the Gu family will not suffer any losses. But this opportunity is too important to us. Please trust us this once."

Having said that, Gu Shangyou really had no room to refuse. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange for your team to connect with our company's professional department. But I want to make it clear that I won't use your program if it's just a passing grade. It has to be good enough and leading enough."

Shen Ci was overjoyed upon hearing this and nodded excitedly: "Uncle Gu, don't worry, I will definitely make you satisfied."

The others also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Lianxing happily picked up her cup and said, "Dad, I thank you on behalf of Shen Ci."

Gu Shangyou looked at his daughter with affection and smiled. To be honest, a large part of the reason he agreed to Shen Ci's request was because of his daughter. If it were a stranger seeking cooperation with him in such an abrupt way, he would not have paid any attention to it.

No matter how eloquently they describe their products, Gu Shangyou has the best team in the Gu family, and he is naturally proud of himself.

Shen Ci was well aware that without using Lianxing's connection, it would be difficult for her to gain access to the Gu family. Therefore, she had no choice but to swallow her pride and ask for help. She did this not only for herself but also for Senior Brother Luo and the entire team.

Fortunately, the meal went relatively well, and Gu Shangyou did not show any displeasure.

After dinner, Pili even taught Mrs. Gu a set of tips for digestion, especially for preventing indigestion after eating too much at night.

Shen Ci and Gu Lianxing accompanied Gu Shangyou for tea and conversation. Unexpectedly, around nine o'clock in the evening, someone came to their door with some things.

The person who came was none other than Jiang Cheng, the older brother Lianxing had secretly loved since childhood, and who was now engaged to her, along with his fiancée.

"Jiang Cheng, Tian Tian?"

Mr. and Mrs. Gu were also surprised by the couple's sudden visit at this time. Mrs. Gu warmly greeted them, "Why did you come so late?"

When Gu Lianxing saw Jiang Cheng, she clearly panicked. She didn't get up or say anything, and just sat on the sofa without moving, as if she had been paralyzed.

It's not easy to get over someone you've liked for so many years suddenly getting engaged. She didn't even attend the engagement party because she was still heartbroken.

At this very moment, she lowered her head to hide the slightly reddened corners of her eyes.

Shen Ci subconsciously looked at Lian Xing and sighed slightly. At least this time she didn't flee in panic like last time.

"Uncle and Aunt, I'm bringing you some wild Ganoderma lucidum. It's from Tian Tian's hometown and it's very good." Jiang Cheng said, handing the things in his hand to Mrs. Gu. "We've already moved here, and since it's so close, we came over without telling you."

Gu Shangyou was slightly surprised: "You moved in? So fast? I thought you were going to use this place as your wedding home."

Jiang Cheng smiled and shook his head. At this moment, he also noticed Gu Lianxing sitting on the sofa. He took the initiative to call out, "Lianxing?"

Gu Lianxing's body visibly trembled, but the next second she smiled and looked up, pretending to be unharmed, replying, "Brother Jiang Cheng, long time no see!"

"Why didn't you come when I got engaged?" Jiang Cheng asked.

“I had something to do that day, I went out with friends, but I’ll go to your wedding,” Gu Lianxing said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng gave a warm smile like an older brother, and then introduced his fiancée to his fiancée, "Tian Tian, ​​this is your uncle and aunt's daughter, Lianxing."

Tian Tian nodded and greeted Lian Xing with a graceful demeanor: "Hello, Lian Xing."

Gu Lianxing's lips moved, but she couldn't bring herself to say "sister-in-law," and only replied, "Hello."

His fiancée was gentle and quiet, completely different from him. So this was the type he liked, Gu Lianxing thought to herself.
