It was early afternoon, and the light sunlight was shining clearly on the road outside.

At this time, there were not many people in the café, the music was soft, the fragrance was strong, Qing Huan found a place by the window with a paper bag and sat down, and after ordering a latte, she held her chin through the glass window and watched the people coming and going outside.

Just as he was distracted, he heard a "clanging" at the door, and someone came in.

When she raised her head, she saw Chen Yidong, who was wearing a dark gray coat, walked in with a flat face, he stood in place for a few seconds, and after his eyes swept around the café, he saw Qing Huan sitting by the window, and then walked over to this side.

"This is the clothes of that day, I want to return it to Xu An'an, but I don't know how to find her, I think I'll just return it to you, anyway, any of you will have the same. After he sat down, Qing Huan handed over the paper bag.

"You have to ask me out for this purpose? You know my address, just mail it to me. The corners of Chen Yidong's lips hooked, and he spoke lightly.

Qing Huan was a little embarrassed, and secretly slandered in her heart, can this person chat? Of course, she also knew that it was most convenient to mail it to him directly, so didn't she have to ask him for help......

"That...... There's something I'd like you to do me a favor. Qing Huan was silent, then slowly raised his head to look at him, and spoke softly.

"Let's talk about it. Chen Yidong had no surprised expression on his face, as if he had expected that she would find herself out more than just return clothes.

"There's a financial forum at The Ritz-Carlton on Friday, you should have received an invitation, right?"

Chen Yidong glanced at her casually and nodded.

"Can you take me with you then?" Qing Huan's cheeks flushed slightly, and after biting his lip, he plucked up the courage to speak.

Chen Yidong didn't speak after hearing this, just slowly rubbed the coffee cup on the table, but his eyes looked directly at her, and the sunlight outside the window reflected his eyebrows clearly. The eyebrows are cold, and the bridge of the nose is high.

After a while, he said coldly, "What are you going to do there?"

"I recently had a project that I needed to establish cooperation with some large enterprises, so I wanted to ......," Qing Huan explained, but he was coldly interrupted by him just as he started.

"Gu Qinghuan, do you think that looking for a project or negotiating an order, you just need to dress up beautifully and find a way to blend into that kind of party, and everything can be caught at your fingertips? You don't have the corresponding resources, no connections, and no idear who can impress those people, why do you think that others will listen to you and cooperate with you? Just rely on a good-looking face? Are you too naïve? Or have you watched too many idol dramas? Isn't the lesson from last time not profound enough for you?"

A series of aggressive questions made Qing Huan's face turn completely white, she lowered her head, and her hands under the table were unconsciously twisted together.

The soft jazz music in the coffee shop still lingered in my ears, and the coffee on the table exuded a fresh fragrance that seemed to float to the tip of my nose, and the mocking expression on the face of the man opposite had not yet had time to completely fade.

At this moment, Qing Huan suddenly felt that her chest was so tight that she couldn't breathe, she raised her head a little unconsciously, and looked at Chen Yidong fixedly. Then he clenched his hands and sat up straight, his hands squeezing tighter and tighter, and suddenly, a stubborn look flashed on his face.

After Qing Huan took a deep breath, his expression calmed down, and his tone was a little sparse: "Chen Yidong, if I had time or other methods, I wouldn't have come to you so abruptly, I know that you look down on me, think I'm naïve and ignorant, always thinking about something good that can fall from the sky, and I want to harvest if I don't want to make corresponding efforts." But the fact is that I really can't do it, this is my last hope, if I don't let go, there will be no chance at all, I don't want to admit defeat, so if there is only a little bit of hope, I will hold on tightly, even if the final result is still a failure after going, at least I have tried, I have done my last bit of effort, no matter what kind of outcome I face in the future, there will be no regrets in my heart, so I don't think it is ignorant and naïve to come to you today and make this request, on the contrary, if I don't do it today, then I can be sure that I will regret it in the future。 ”

Chen Yidong was stunned, staring at her motionlessly, his eyes dark.

"Anyway, thank you for taking the time to see me today, my company still has something to do, so I'll go back first." Qing Huan stood up calmly, then turned around and walked towards the gate.

Who knew that just after taking two steps, Chen Yidong's faint voice sounded behind him: "At eight o'clock on Friday night, I will wait for you at the gate of the community where you live." ”

Qing Huan's footsteps stopped, and he turned his head to look at him in some surprise, only to see him sitting there without moving, looking at her with dark and clear eyes.

"Thank you. She whispered, and walked briskly to the door.

When Qing Huan saw Chen Yidong again, it was already Friday night, she was wearing a nude pink dress, with lifelike flowers embroidered on the gauzy skirt, plus a pair of ten-centimeter white high heels, which made her whole temperament like a hibiscus out of water, clean and clear.

Seeing her walking towards him, Chen Yidong's usual cold eyes also rarely showed a touch of appreciation, and after she got into the car and fastened her seat belt, he suddenly turned his head and said to her: "I helped you win five minutes to speak at the meeting tonight." ”

"Huh?" Qing Huan was very surprised, he didn't expect him to help him like this.

"You're not going to tell me that you're not prepared and you're going to convince those people to buy your products, right?" Chen Yidong started the car and left, squinting at her.

"Of course it's ready. Qing Huan immediately spoke, "It's just that I didn't expect you to help me buy time to go on stage." ”

"That's all I can do for you, the rest is up to you. Chen Yidong said lightly.

"Enough. Qing Huan whispered.

"Enough. When she was still on stage for more than ten minutes, Qing Huan said to herself in the mirror in the bathroom, her face and fingertips were pale, and her bright red lips showed a little bit of blood, which was even more contrasting.

Her voice was shaking, and she didn't know how many times she had memorized the product's introduction, but now she felt like she couldn't remember a word.

How can such a self calmly introduce her products in front of the public for a while, and if she can't even calm down, how can she convince others to buy her products?

Qinghuan almost had the urge to cry and escape, she tried her best to calm down, and said to herself silently, Gu Qinghuan, the matter has come to this, the road is your own choice, you have no other choice than to move forward.

As she muttered, she turned around, took a few deep breaths, closed her eyes, and then pushed the door open and walked out.

In the luxuriously decorated multi-purpose conference hall, the red curtain is slowly rising, and the singer is singing a well-known Italian song, which is nearing the end, and after this song, it is time for her to play.

The music is shocking and seems to be soul-stirring, Qing Huan leaned against the door of the conference hall, and with the arrival of the final climax, the atmosphere was also rendered to the extreme, and her time to go on stage also came.

"Before I introduce my product, I want to tell you a little bit about the impact of artificial intelligence on us. Qing Huan stood in the center of the stage, exposed to the bright magnesium lights, and in front of so many pairs of bright eyes, and slowly spoke: "The changes brought by artificial intelligence to human beings will exceed the Internet, electricity, and the industrial revolution." Because it penetrates into every industry and every job, it will change, subvert, and replace 50% of people within ten years, and it will change some of the ways we do things, so it will come faster and have more influence than the Internet. ”

"To give you a few examples, most of today's jobs will disappear in the future, such as translation, although it is not so perfect now, but it is improving rapidly every year, and it may be very difficult for human translators to find jobs in a few years. The same is true for journalists, who today write 90 percent of Associated Press articles by machines. Almost all jobs where the thinking model can be rationally extrapolated will be replaced when there is enough data to support it. Some people say that half of the jobs will disappear within 10 years, and some people say that half of the jobs will disappear within 15 years, and I think these are reasonable speculations. And our products have achieved remarkable results in the research and development of artificial intelligence......."

……

Qing Huan breathed a long sigh of relief, she finally finished speaking, no matter what, whether it was good or bad, she had done her best.

At the bottom, there was a long silence at first, and suddenly someone took the lead in applauding, and then there was thunderous applause, which lasted for a long time. When her eyes fell on the audience, she saw Chen Yidong sitting in the front row, looking at herself without moving for a moment.

The two lines of sight intertwined in the air, and his eyes suddenly became dark as an abyss.

The next morning, Qing Huan received three phone calls, all of which expressed their interest in her products, and left an address so that she could talk about the details when she was free.

Qing Huan checked, they were all listed companies, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a satisfied smile, at this moment, she finally felt very clearly that she was only one step away from success.

Walking on the street after work, Qing Huan suddenly felt relieved and wanted to jump up happily. Yes, she should be happy, an unprecedented opportunity, an unprecedented challenge, an unprecedented success. Yes, she did it, overcame many difficulties, and most importantly - she regained her original self, Gu Qinghuan, who had dreams and could shine.
