Extra 1.5: Later Story – Wedding
After another period of time, the first AI chip in Jing Xun’s laboratory was officially put into use after countless nights and days of daily research.
Since it was used in the high-end field of aviation technology, like flying and diving, many also involved important national secrets. Although this chip of Yiwei was still widely publicized and reported, there was no way for the media to publish its actual function and related data.
But even so, this was the first true full AI smart chip born in the world.
This news was shocking enough for everyone, whether it was heads of states or ordinary people.
People who were closely related to the field of high-end technology need not say more, but the normal citizen in the country alone, although they didn’t know what this thing can do, another world first was born in their own country, so they couldn’t help but feel proud and honored.
It doesn’t matter what that thing could do, it didn’t affect the public’s high evaluation and praise of Yiwei on this occasion.
“Yiwei was only listed last month, and the chip was made this month. Investors are probably going crazy with joy.”
“This fully confirms Yiwei’s strength. Buy Yiwei’s stock, we are all gonna make good money.”
“I think it’s their conscience. How many companies have gone public and ran away with the money. Yiwei is a big company that does practical things, and Mr. Shen looks like a person who actually puts in real work!”
“Really conscientious, do you know how much you need to invest in the early stage of researching this chip? It has to be tens of billions! And according to professionals, this is not something that can be done with money! Now I’m curious about what kind of immortal made this thing. I want the great god to accept my knees QAQ”
Not only was the whole country discussing this matter, but the birth of the smart chip also made the entire Dragon City tremble again because of this news.
A long time ago, the Shen Group was already the face and representative of Dragon City, and as Shen Group’s successor, Shen Yijin was further pushed into the limelight.
But what Yiwei was doing now seemed to have surpassed the cognition of all the upper echelons in Dragon City. It wasn’t only leading at the domestic level, but it had even gone straight out into the world and become a world-class achievement!
After this journey, there was no doubt that Shen Yijin would become the richest man in the whole country.
More importantly, he might also become the richest man in the world!
Since then, the upper class of the entire Dragon City can really be divided into “Shen Yijin” and “Shen Yijin outside”, the assets of all their families combined may not be able to match him alone…!
So how on earth did such an awesome chip come about?
There were many companies in Dragon City that did technology research and development, including some old brand enterprises and family businesses.
They started technology companies, and organized scientific research teams. Each company had also hired many experts to conduct research.
Over the past three years, the returns for these businesses and families had been mediocre.
On the contrary, Yiwei, not only went on the market in just a few years, but also released such an extraordinary and influential product!
This huge gap was related to the pursuit of superintendent and the level of the industry.
It had to be said that the crucial key in this was because other companies lack outstanding talents and teams like Yiwei!
Like this kind of cross-generation AI chip, let alone producing it, the R&D teams of other companies can’t even find the initial idea to proceed from!
When Yiwei became the center of attention, the person who made such a sky-defying chip became a topic of great interest to these families and companies.
And this was fairly easy to verify.
After all, that person’s identity wasn’t a secret in Yiwei.
Not only was it not a secret, it was something everyone knew from top to bottom!
Those who paid attention to this matter only needed to inquire a little, and it wasn’t difficult to get the answer.
So what if they find out who it was… This person was someone they would never be able to poach.
For ordinary people who do not have any connection in Dragon City, it was not difficult to learn the identity of this “scientist behind Yiwei” either.
When the smart chip was applied to the field and truly played a significant role that benefited the masses, the national TV station set up a special interview team to follow up and interview the “expert behind the scenes” after obtaining permission.
When the interview was broadcast, the whole country was boiling!
Jing Xun’s name and appearance were completely reflected in everyone’s mind.
The interview time was less than half an hour.
The questions asked by the host were also very routine. After all, the chip itself was absolutely confidential and couldn’t be disclosed and discussed. The original purpose of recording this interview was to set an example for young people and encourage them to have the drive toward innovation and research, and work hard.
It was such a somewhat boring-sounding technology talk show, but it received a variety of strong responses.
Before this interview was broadcast, no one expected that the overall popularity of this interview would become an existence unparalleled by all variety shows and interview programs in the next few years.
The young man on the screen wore a pair of low-key black-framed glasses, and he eloquently talked about his love for technology.
Jing Xun often experienced such interviews and was no stranger to it. He didn’t even need to spend time looking at any scripts, and he could easily handle any interview if the director explained the subject to him in advance.
Of course, when encouraging young people to work hard, Jing Xun did not forget to emphasize the importance of teamwork, stressing that even if he was the one being interviewed, it was his entire team that really made outstanding contributions.
His modest and humble image had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the audience. The young man in front of the camera had clear and meticulous logic, his speech was also natural and poised.
Obviously it was an extremely handsome face that couldn’t be compared with everyone else, that face was so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
Because of the warm eyebrows behind the black-framed eyes, the young man often had a gentle smile without any sharpness.
The youth in front of the camera was so approachable.
But the more low-key he was, the more people were crazily attracted to him!
As soon as the talk show was broadcast, the number of online viewers exceeded 50 million.
This number continued to increase!
The audience in front of the screen were frantically brushing the barrage——
“Before I clicked on it, I thought it was a very boring official interview, but I didn’t expect to watch the whole thing.”
“I also find it strange. I have no concept of AI and chips, but I miraculously finished watching this video.”
“I watched it three times! Ah ah ah, offering my knees1You say this when you try to worship someone. In a funny way I guess. to the male god!!!”
“Every time I heard the little brother saying that they often work overtime until the early morning, with an average of more than ten hours a day… I feel super decadent.”
“That’s right, it’s mainly because these people are spontaneous, how on earth did they do it! It’s hard to even graduate!!”
“Because Yiwei’s salary is high, and there are original shares. I would feel sorry for President Shen if I didn’t work hard.”
“I think it’s because of self-discipline, and not everyone can get a high salary.”
“15512 1551 pinyin is yiwuwuyi. Because the pronunciation is similar to “woo woo woo”, it is often used as the sound of cute crying. Such a handsome little brother turned out to be a scientific research bigshot, and he is also married. I am ashamed of being a corporate sl*ve and a single dog.”
“?? What, he’s married?”
“He’s married ah. So there’s still people who don’t know this. He and Daddy Shen belong to the same family.”
“???”
The barrage madly covered the screen, and Jing Xun also appeared on other platforms hot search again.
As an educational talk show, under the impact of such popularity, the national TV station directly disclosed the video source and allowed it to be reposted on any other website.
For a time, Jing Xun’s interviews were flooded on social media platforms in various countries, and his image and pictures often appeared on the streets.
The popularity of the video lingered for a long time, and for long after that, Jing Xun’s name had been hanging in the front row of the hot search.
It’s just like being popular overnight.
His popularity naturally attracted a lot of attention, not to mention that Jing Xun had just been brought into a wave of hot searches as Shen Yijin’s partner not long ago, and the popularity was still there…
So, the national CP was officially born.
From the street to the end of the alley, from seventy-year-olds to five or six-year-old children, they all knew that he and Shen Yijin belonged to the same family.
The same was true for the topic of “national CP”, following Jing Xun’s name on the hot search.
Different from the topic brought by a certain pair of stars in the entertainment circle, the topic of Jing Xun and Shen Yijin would always be a clean and harmonious sight.
There is no challenge, no confrontation, and no one will blacken one of them.
One is a conscientious entrepreneur.
One is a scientist who has made outstanding contributions.
There wasn’t even a way to conjure any black topic.
And blacken them for what? For being young, handsome, and doing a lot of practical work?
No matter how hard the internet trolls tried to find fault, they couldn’t discover a single trace.
Not only were there no black shady opinions, but everyday from morning to night in Super Topic3A weibo function that is similar to a facebook group or subreddit., there were people clocking in4On Chinese internet, people use the term punch in, clock in, or sign in on their post to remind themselves of their commitment to quit certain bad habits or to work hard to develop a good habit. It can also mean daily attendance., under the banner of working hard with Jing Xun, all netizens were flocking to record their daily study and work.
The interview video of Jing Xun had indeed influenced and motivated many people to work together.
Just when the Internet was booming and the company was gradually developing steadily, Jing Xun and Shen Yijin’s wedding came as scheduled.
This wedding, which had been in preparation for nearly a year, was attended by many important figures from all over the country, and everyone from the upper echelons of Dragon City who had connections with the Shen family came to congratulate them. In addition, there were company staff and Jing Xun’s alumni…
The number of guests at the wedding was expected to be nearly 10,000.
Fortunately, the auditorium and garden they rented were large enough, otherwise they would not be able to accommodate so many people.
And until the day before the wedding, Jing Xun was still busy with his own work.
Although the chip had been put into use, it also involved follow-up data monitoring and stability tests. Jing Xun had been very busy during this period of time, and he wasn’t the least bit aware that Shen Yijin and him would soon be married in the presence of nearly 10,000 people.
Similar to the situation with the interview, it was hard for Jing Xun to even squeeze out some time to take wedding photos and try on the suit.
Of course he was busy, and Shen Yijin was even busier than him.
All is unnecessary.
Jing Xun can never understand this kind of “□□”.
But on the other hand, he also understood the idea of a person at grandpa Shen age, holding a wedding in the presence of relatives and friends was a real ceremony, and getting a certificate was secondary… Thus Jing Xun didn’t say anything, he just tried on the suit when he was asked to, and tried to take time to do whatever he was told to do…
As for getting up early this morning and seeing a brand new attire on a hanger not far away…
Jing Xun suddenly remembered that they were going to have their wedding today.
Yesterday, he and Shen Yijin both worked very late. After getting out of the busy state, the first thing they suffered was the endless fatigue. Jing Xun didn’t have time to say good night before he fell asleep.
He had no idea if his brain automatically remembered that today was a special day. Although he didn’t think much about it, on this day, he still automatically opened his eyes early.
Sitting on the bed “in a daze” facing the attire not far away, he heard the sound of the door opening. It was Shen Yijin who had changed his clothes and walked over.
Jing Xun said that everything should be kept simple, so Shen Yijin waved his hand, letting the MC simplify some formality and various unnecessary protocols.
Even though this was a Chinese-style wedding, there was no rule that the newlyweds could not meet the day before.
As for other aspects… the layout of the entire venue was still as exuberant as it should be.
According to an experienced relevant personnel, the whole wedding will cost hundreds of millions, which had nothing to do with “simplicity”.
At this time, Shen Yijin had already changed into a formal suit, looking upright and handsome.
Seeing the other party approaching in such an orderly manner, Jing Xun automatically dug himself out of the quilt and asked nervously, “Did I oversleep? The stylist is already here?”
“It’s ok, there’s still time.” Shen Yijin touched his face, and brushed away the scattered hair on his cheeks: “Go wash up first, and eat breakfast. Today might be a very tiring one.”
“Okay.” Jing Xun quickly jumped off the bed.
Since the ceremony was simplified, there were not so many steps in the wedding such as escorting the bride. The only thing to note at the wedding was that Shen Yijin and him should arrive at the venue on time.
This made Jing Xun feel a lot more relaxed.
After changing clothes, eating breakfast, and getting his hair done under the hands of several stylists, Jing Xun got into the wedding car that had been prepared for a long time.
The simple and unadorned limited-edition Rolls-Royce drove all the way to the wedding venue. The time was still early but there were already many guests in place.
This was obviously another great time to mingle. No one wanted to miss this opportunity to meet the top figures. Naturally, many people would come over early.
Ultimately, Jing Xun and Shen Yijin were the focus of today’s ceremony.
As soon as Shen Yijin showed up, the guests who noticed his figure immediately came up and congratulated him.
This was understandable, but there were still people trying to seek him out, wanting to take this opportunity to develop contacts and build a relationship with Shen Yijin.
To some people, the wedding of the top giant family can’t simply be a mere wedding. It was a means to bring together the bigwigs and win them over. It was no different from an ordinary social banquet.
All these people who saw Shen Yijin tried their best to introduce themselves, or the projects they were working on… no matter what, with such a good opportunity, they should demonstrate themselves again and again. Even if the project could not attract President Shen’s interest, they should strive to leave an impression of their families and businesses in front of President Shen.
Shen Yijin had always been indifferent to the outside world, so how could he concentrate on listening to this at such a time.
His eyes suddenly fell on a person. Relying on his height, he looked carefully over the heads of the crowd, and then he expressionlessly said to the surrounding people: “I have no opinion. Please excuse me.”
President Shen said in a cold voice that they were blocking the way, apparently not interested in letting them climb up to him. The people who came up to him felt a little discouraged. They didn’t have the time to ponder this over before quickly backing away.
Almost instantly, a small road was vacated in front of Shen Yijin.
He went straight in one direction.
Although other people were more or less afraid of him, their sight couldn’t help tracking Shen Yijin, and they followed behind him step by step.
Therefore everyone could naturally saw… that there was another encirclement three meters away.
The encirclement was obviously more crowded than their side, and it looked more lively and attentive.
Everyone looked at each other and wondered–who is higher in status than today’s President Shen? …Could it be that the legendary and important figures from other provinces and cities have already arrived at the venue? !
Otherwise, why would there be so many people around? ?
Since President Shen was not interested at the moment, they might as well find someone else…they wondered if they were hugging the wrong thigh. When everyone was in shock, they saw that President Shen had stepped right into the circle like a steel knife, where he passed, the people there also automatically backed off and opened up a path for him.
And at this time, the center of the encirclement was also exposed——it was the other protagonist of today’s event, President Shen’s partner.
This made those who surrounded Shen Yijin even more puzzled.
These people were all old families and old companies in other provinces and cities that operate old-fashioned industries. They had a little bit of fame, but it was gradually declining. There weren’t many contacts with the Shen family.
Being invited to attend President Shen’s wedding this time, they also had some understanding of President Shen’s marriage partner. They all know that he was a very good-looking young man who was engaged in scientific research and had no family background.
When they received the invitation, these people were still puzzled—how could Shen Yijin, who had already topped the national wealth ranking list, find such a person to hold a wedding.
Until just now, a few seconds ago, they still didn’t understand.
At this time, seeing so many people surrounding the legendary “Mrs. Shen”, these people all came to realize that something was wrong…
Those who surrounded President Shen’s partner were both eager and flattering, and looking at their demeanor, they seemed to be more enthusiastic than they were towards President Shen! …
What exactly is going on? !
President Shen’s partner…wasn’t he an ordinary person with no background at all? ? ?
When they looked over, some people who were diligently surrounding Jing Xun also noticed them.
Represented by Shen Yijin’s second uncle, these people had one thought in their hearts at this time: Dirtbag, thoughtless, uneducated!
Nowadays, any family that had connections and was still well-informed, regardless of whether or not they had a company engaged in scientific research, who doesn’t know that the one who decides the future of Dragon City is actually the former one?
The listing of Yiwei and the new technology that crossed the era created by Yiwei had already determined its right to speak in Dragon City, the whole country and even the whole world for at least a few decades in the future.
What’s more, this was just the beginning of the global development of AI technology!
If at this time, there was still anyone who treated Jing Xun only as Shen Yijin’s partner, that would be too stupid!
“Congratulations, Mr. Yan, I watched your interview before, but I didn’t expect the real person to be even more handsome!” The people around Jing Xun said with great enthusiasm.
“Hahaha, Mr. Yan and Mr. Shen are a match made in heaven! By the way, Mr. Yan, you said on the talk show that you have been thinking and researching the program on the AI chip for five years?Then you’re only fifteen or sixteen year old when you started… Hahaha, prodigy! What a prodigy!”
“By the way, if Mr. Yan is free, is it convenient to visit our company to hold a meeting and give some guidance to the researchers. They need talents like Mr. Yan to motivate them!”
“Xun Xun, are you tired?” Shen Yijin’s second uncle, who came here early in the morning, pushed the people around him away and said diligently, “Second uncle is afraid that you are tired, there’s still time, let Ah Jin take you back to rest first.”
“…..”
Speak of the devil, Jing Xun helplessly looked at Shen Yijin… There were too many people today, they were clearly coming out from the front and back, and were surrounded by people one after another…
“Alright.” During the period of time when Jing Xun was still working on the product, he didn’t expect his celebrity effect to become so strong. He gave Shen Yijin a look: Sir, why don’t we go and sit down for a while.
Shen Yijin didn’t speak, he took his hand and directly pulled him out of the encirclement.
He was obviously dissatisfied with Jing Xun being surrounded by so many people.
“Then I’ll take Xiao Xun to the back to rest.”
“Okay, okay.” Second uncle of the Shen family responded quickly: “Don’t worry, eldest nephew, just leave it to me!”
He was still smiling with a slightly bowing posture, after Jing Xun and Shen Yijin both left, the second uncle of the Shen family automatically straightened up.
The Shen family’s status was prominent now, and he could naturally put on airs in front of other people——if it wasn’t in front of Ah Jin or Jing Xun, he would still be the second generation of the Shen family in the limelight.
In the past six months, amidst the constant change of events, the situation of the Shen family had long been noticed.
Yang Nianjiao paid for the wrong things she did back then, and Shen Bohan was so ashamed and angry for his mother’s behavior that he disappeared far away by himself, and even as his second uncle, he didn’t know where he was now.
Second uncle knew that the situation was hopeless, so he simply gave up competing for the management rights of the Shen family.
Facts have proved that his previous decision was wise. In less than a year, with the rise of emerging fields, Dragon City had completely turned over the sky.
Second uncle was glad that he came to his senses early and never troubled Shen Yijin or Jing Xun, otherwise…
All the way to the lounge at the back, the noise outside was blocked by the thick door panel. For no reason, Jing Xun suddenly began to feel nervous.
As for why he’s nervous?
He was certainly not frightened by so many people.
Jing Xun’s feelings at the moment can be described as…
Just like when they went to collect the certificate at the beginning, it was an ordinary and sunny day, and they did a step-by-step thing that was completely within the scope of the plan…
But something had changed.
There was also a stir in his heart.
“Xiao Xun?” After closing the door, Shen Yijin turned around and saw the young man standing there blinking dazedly.
He walked up to him, holding his hand, and naturally intertwined their fingers: “Are you ok?”
Looking at the tall and handsome Shen Yijin in front of him, his eyes full of concern, Jing Xun shook his head, and took the free hand to cover the location of his heart, smiling and said: “I’m good.”
Everything is fine.
There was a trace of throbbing in his heart, constantly tickling his heartstrings.
It made him feel nervous and inexplicably looking forward to the next story between them.
