396: Chapter 396 Stock Price Rebound

Hearing this, Gu Mingming couldn't help but gasp in amazement— "Awesome!"

After speaking, a trace of anxiety arose in him.

If even the high-ranking members of the Board of Directors had to listen to Shen Yan, then did this Gu Corporation actually belong to him or to Shen Yan?

Before he could figure it out, the press conference had already begun.

Things had progressed to this stage.

Even if Gu Mingming wanted to go back on his word now, it was impossible.

He pushed away the doubts in his mind and walked towards the press conference, facing the cameras to tell the media, "Hello everyone, I am Gu Mingming, the acting Chairman of Gu Corporation."

"The main purpose of holding this press conference today is to announce one thing to everyone, which is that I have decided to cooperate with President Shen of Company Name and provide technical support for Company Name's artificial intelligence project."

As soon as the words fell, the reporters immediately raised their hands to ask questions.

The questions they asked were essentially of two types.

One was why Gu Corporation would cooperate with Shen Yan, and the other was Gu Corporation's view on Gu Hui.

Gu Mingming only answered the first question and did not address the latter.

Not only that, but he also had his staff tell the media not to ask similar questions, as he would absolutely refuse to answer them under any circumstances.

From beginning to end, Shen Yan just stood aside with a smile and said nothing.

It wasn't until Gu Mingming finished answering all the media's questions that Shen Yan stepped forward to introduce himself to the media, and jokingly said to them:

"Actually, I feel like I don't need to introduce myself anymore. After all, I just finished introducing my company's artificial intelligence project to you last time."

As soon as he finished speaking,

The reporters burst into laughter.

They had a pretty good impression of Shen Yan.

After all, they had never seen such a humorous and witty person in power.

"Alright, since that's the case, then we will ask you a few more questions."

"Gu Corporation is currently at its most chaotic time. Why did you choose to cooperate with them now?"

Shen Yan answered every question asked. He replied to the media with great honesty: "It's very simple, because our project requires some technical support from them."

The media asked again: "What are your thoughts on your former partner, Gu Hui? He has been arrested now. Have you gone to see him?"

Shen Yan showed a look of alarm.

"Don't say that. I will absolutely not associate myself with anyone who breaks the law!"

The media pressed the shutters of their cameras rapidly.

"If that's the case, aren't you afraid that Gu Corporation might be implicated in the illegal business that Gu Hui conducted?"

Hearing the question, Shen Yan revealed a slight smile.

"I don't know if Gu Corporation participated in Gu Hui's illegal business, but no one has sealed off Gu Corporation so far. I believe this indicates that Gu Corporation and Gu Hui have no illegal business transactions."

After getting the answer, the media stopped pressing the issue.

Because time was limited, the press conference ended after the media asked a few more questions.

When the press conference concluded and all the media had left, the staff began packing up the equipment.

Just as Shen Yan was preparing to say goodbye to Gu Mingming and leave with him, Gu Mingming walked toward him with a face full of pleasant surprise.

"President Shen! Our group's stock price has rebounded!"

Hearing this, Shen Yan glanced at Gu Mingming and said to him with a half-smile:

"Isn't that very normal?"

"Negative news will cause the group's stock price to drop rapidly, and positive news will cause the stock price to soar rapidly."

As he finished speaking,

Gu Mingming swallowed his saliva.

"I know that, but I didn't expect the effect to be so obvious. Right after the press conference ended, Gu Corporation's stock price shot up at a rocket-like speed."

Shen Yan patted Gu Mingming on the back.

"As long as you are satisfied, remember that for the cooperation between the two of us, you must unconditionally provide us with the assistance we need."

Gu Mingming nodded to show he understood.

"Don't worry, I remember it clearly!"

"Oh, right. Things are quite chaotic in Gu Corporation right now, so it might take me a couple of days to arrange for the dedicated personnel to coordinate with you."

Shen Yan expressed his understanding.

Not long after, the two parted ways.

Just as Shen Yan was preparing to return directly to his company, he received a call from Wu Ya.

"Where are you right now?"

Hearing Wu Ya's question, Shen Yan replied: "I just finished a press conference. What's up?"

Wu Ya replied excitedly: "An Ran just contacted me. She said she's coming tonight and asked if we could pick her up from the airport."

Shen Yan glanced at the time—four-thirty.

"What time tonight?"

Wu Ya replied: "She said around eight or nine."

That's fine, not too late.

Shen Yan thought for a moment and then said to Wu Ya: "Okay, remember to ask her to send over the flight information."

Wu Ya looked confused.

"Why do you need the flight information?"

Shen Yan replied: "With her flight information, we won't be waiting there idly."

Wu Ya understood.

Shen Yan was worried about missing the flight or arriving too early.

"Okay, I'll ask her in a bit, and I'll send you the flight information once I get it."

Shen Yan: "OK."

Eight-thirty in the evening.

Shen Yan and Wu Ya appeared at the arrival gate right on time.

"Do you think she'll see both of us when she comes out?"

Hearing Wu Ya's question, Shen Yan glanced at Wu Ya's outfit.

Wu Ya was wearing a blue dress and looked quite pretty.

In contrast, he was wearing a black T-shirt, baggy shorts, and a pair of flip-flops—as casual as one could be.

"Tsk, don't worry. You're dressed so nicely, she will definitely recognize you."

Wu Ya: "..."

If you flirt, you should marry her!

Shen Yan was unaware of Wu Ya's internal roar.

He was currently focused only on picking up the person quickly and then discussing the investment matters with her.

Speak of the devil.

They had just finished talking about An Ran when An Ran walked out carrying two large suitcases.

Just as Shen Yan had thought, An Ran immediately recognized the two of them upon arrival and walked toward them.

"Long time no see, President Shen, President Wu!"

Hearing this, Wu Ya waved her hand and said: "This is private time now, no need to call me President Wu. You can call me Xiao Wu or Aya."

An Ran nodded, then turned to Shen Yan and asked: "Is there anywhere around here to eat? I didn't eat on the plane and I'm a bit hungry now."

Shen Yan nodded: "Yes, if you don't mind, I can take you to get something to eat first to fill your stomach."

An Ran smiled: "It's great as long as there's food. How could I possibly be picky?"

As she finished speaking,

Wu Ya said to An Ran: "Then let's stop chatting here and hurry up!"

Saying that, she proactively took the suitcase from An Ran's hand.
