371: Chapter 371 A Small Goal

This time, Shen Yan did not remain silent.

He looked at Liu Hui with a serious expression and said, "But isn't that director also from a wealthy family and not lacking money?"

Liu Hui was momentarily stunned by his question.

Immediately after, she lay back down on Shen Yan and smiled.

"You are correct. Regardless of what others do, she is not fit to be a doctor."

Shen Yan lowered his eyes, playing with Liu Hui's fingers, and agreed, "Mm, she is not fit."

In the afternoon, Shen Yan left Liu Hui's home and headed to the company.

"Hello, President Shen!"

"President Shen is back."

Seeing everyone greet him as he went upstairs, Shen Yan suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

Just as he was immersed in an ineffable state, someone patted his shoulder.

He turned his head and saw that it was Chen Guangke.

"What are you standing here for? Could it be that after two days off, you've forgotten where your office is?"

Shen Yan replied with a smile, "My memory isn't that bad."

Chen Guangke shrugged.

"If I hadn't seen your face, I would have thought the person standing here was new to the company."

"Alright, let's stop wasting time here. Wu Ya and Jiang Yuan are already waiting in the office."

Hearing this, Shen Yan raised an eyebrow.

"Why is Jiang Yuan here too?"

Chen Guangke broke into a smile.

"That's because there's good news, that's why I came over!"

"Let's go, let's go! Stop standing here blankly, hurry to the office!"

He pushed open the office door.

Wu Ya and Jiang Yuan were indeed already inside the office.

"President Shen."

"Brother Shen."

The two of them stood up and greeted Shen Yan as soon as they saw him.

Shen Yan nodded to each of them, walked to his office chair, and sat down, asking them, "Who wants to report first?"

Upon hearing the question, Wu Ya and Jiang Yuan exchanged glances. Finally, Wu Ya chose to step forward to report her matter first. She said to Shen Yan, "Our software has been launched in all the stores and online."

"As of now, our software's download volume has exceeded one million. If this trend continues, breaking thirty million within a week will not be a problem."

As her words fell, Shen Yan chuckled.

"Is thirty million your only target?"

Wu Ya subconsciously retorted, "Of course not!"

Shen Yan nodded, then asked again, "Then what is your target?"

Wu Ya hesitated for a moment before replying, "Although I know it's somewhat impossible, I still hope we can break one hundred million downloads within a week."

As soon as this was said, the office fell silent for a few seconds.

After quite a while, Shen Yan started clapping.

"Good! This target is excellent. However, my target is a bit further than yours. I hope we can reach three hundred million downloads within one week."

This time, the office became even quieter.

Originally, Jiang Yuan and Chen Guangke thought Wu Ya's target was already wishful thinking, but they never expected Shen Yan's target to be even more delusional.

Logically, they should say a few words of agreement to boost morale at this moment.

But the goals set by Shen Yan and Wu Ya were too difficult for them to achieve. Thus, after a few seconds of silence, they chose to change the topic.

"Ahem, besides the software matter, there is one more thing that needs to be reported to you. The first cycle of our project has been fully completed."

Some time ago, Shen Yan obtained wealth intelligence regarding relevant talents by completing some relatively simple special missions.

Since the field of Artificial Intelligence was not his specialty, he asked Jiang Yuan to personally invite these people. Jiang Yuan successfully lived up to his expectations and recruited all those individuals into the laboratory.

It proved that a loss might turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

Although their previous team had been poached by Gu Xuantian's people, the individuals they personally invited this time were clearly more capable.

It hadn't been long before their project successfully achieved its first cycle of success.

"Very good! Keep up this progress!"

Saying this, Shen Yan lowered his head thoughtfully, "Since the first cycle of our project has succeeded, we should start drawing a big picture now."

As his voice faded.

Chen Guangke suddenly had a bad premonition. He narrowed his eyes and asked Shen Yan, "What are you planning? Who are you trying to screw over?"

Shen Yan smiled and replied, "What are you saying? Do I look like someone who screws people over? At most, I'm just painting a picture, letting them look forward to a beautiful future."

Chen Guangke: "..."

I'd believe you if I were an idiot!

Although that was what he thought, he still asked Shen Yan, "Is there anything you need me to do?"

Shen Yan nodded without hesitation.

"Help me organize a press conference. The reporters invited must be famous ones."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Wu Ya had already guessed what Shen Yan intended to do.

"You want to recruit investors through the press conference?"

Shen Yan nodded.

"That's right. Researching Artificial Intelligence requires massive funds to begin with. We are also at the forefront of the Artificial Intelligence field. To be safe, we must find more investors and empty their pockets."

Jiang Yuan, Chen Guangke, Wu Ya: "..."

Although Shen Yan's words were crude, there was truth in them.

The Artificial Intelligence project they were currently working on was something no one else had ever attempted.

It was easy to imagine how high their failure rate was and how enormous the capital they required would be.

To prevent a break in the capital chain, securing investment from others at this juncture of success was the best solution.

Thinking this, Chen Guangke pursed his lips and said to Shen Yan, "I will handle this matter as quickly as possible."

Shen Yan: "Okay, then this matter is entrusted to you. Hurry up and get it done."

After speaking, he turned to look at Jiang Yuan.

"And you. You have to go up with me during the press conference."

Jiang Yuan hadn't expected to have a role in the press conference. He widened his eyes in surprise and asked Shen Yan in a tone of terror, "Don't I just need to be responsible for the research?!"

Shen Yan smiled with the air of a human trafficker.

"Although I'm leading this project, my understanding of the field of Artificial Intelligence is still too limited."

"To avoid being unable to answer reporters' questions, you must go up first to explain the project to me."

Actually, he was lying.

Even if he didn't understand the Artificial Intelligence field, he could have memorized all the project data and information beforehand.

The reason he dragged Jiang Yuan up to explain to everyone was purely to show off the talent under his command.

Which one would be more convincing: a person who had never been involved in the Artificial Intelligence field explaining the project, or a Ph.D. who had studied Artificial Intelligence for nearly thirty years explaining the project?

Anyone who wasn't blind knew the answer.
