As the saying goes, iron needs to be hard, but sometimes if you want to succeed, you need a little bit of time to operate.

And Zhu Lu, who is speaking on the stage at this moment, is a typical example of the operation of time in Lu Li's view.

The antivirus software they designed, Black Cloud Security, did not make a single wave when it was first listed, and it fell silent.

On the one hand, there are already a lot of antivirus software on the market, and many of them are free; On the other hand, it is because contemporary netizens do not have a high degree of trust in antivirus software......

This can be seen from the fact that many netizens jokingly said that "after buying a new computer, you must install 360 security guards, Kingsoft drug bully, and Master Lu ......".

While the antivirus capabilities of these antiviruses are really good, the large number of ad pop-ups, automatic downloads of rogue software, and the impact on computer performance make many people prefer to take a risk rather than download these things.

In this environment, the black cloud security directly hit the street, but the designers did not give up on it, and from time to time it will be updated and improved.

It wasn't until the emergence of a virus from "wallpaper software" that this software was displayed in front of the public......

……

"It doesn't feel like there's anything special, why do you care about this software?" Su Yuning looked at Lu Li and was very puzzled.

"Mainly because I was a little curious, I didn't expect that there would be people developing in this area." Lu Li smiled and didn't explain too much.

From his point of view, Zhu Lu is obviously a technician rather than a person who is good at speaking and introducing, and he stumbles in the process of speaking.

It gives people the feeling that it can be eaten, but it is not necessary, and there is a risk of diarrhea after eating.

In fact, if it weren't for the memories in the simulation, Lu Li would not have thought that this software would be successful.

Strong opponents, a saturated market, and no introduction that shows the special and brilliant features of the software are enough to make ninety percent of investors sentence it to death in their hearts.

Zhu Lu's speech stammered, and he didn't grasp the key point when he introduced, and the attraction to those investors was infinitely close to 0.

Looking at the investors who had obviously been distracted and even took out their mobile phones, Zhu Lu sighed helplessly.

It is clear that no one is optimistic about this project...... In the Q&A session of the judges, only one person asked a question, and after he finished answering, there was no follow-up.

The introduction of fifteen people was quickly completed, and according to the judges' scores, the winners were also quickly determined.

In addition to the first prize, second prize, and third prize, there are three excellence awards, but these six awards have nothing to do with Zhu Lu.

He sat in the corner of the room, looking at the contestants who received the prize, his eyes full of confusion.

His only hope now is whether any investors will contact him after the awards are over.

……

The end time of the competition was a little earlier than Lu Li imagined, and it was just after four o'clock after the award was completed.

As soon as the game ended, many spectators stood up and walked towards the exit1.

"I still have something to do later, it won't be long, why don't you wait here for a while?" Glancing at the noisy crowd, Lu Li turned his head and said to Su Yuning with a smile.

"Do you have a project you are optimistic about? Do you want to communicate with those contestants? Su Yuning blinked and asked.

"Well, I'm still interested in that antivirus." Lu Li nodded in agreement.

"Can I go with you?" Su Yuning leaned forward and said with some expectation.

"Yes, but it might be a little boring."

"It's okay, so let's go over now?"

"Let's go, then."

……

Looking at the investors and contestants who were chatting around him, Zhu Lu rubbed his head with a headache, not knowing how to explain when he went back.

The biggest purpose of his visit this time is not to win awards, but to attract some investors to fund the follow-up research and development of the software.

If he really relies on the prize money, he can't solve the problem of the current shortage of funds, unless he can win the 200,000 prize money of the first prize.

Although he knew that his project would not be favored by most people, Zhu Lu still didn't expect it to be so bad.

Powerful and far-sighted investors don't look down on him at all, and they are all communicating with the top three players in the competition......

Although two small bosses just took a fancy to his software and communicated with him, the conditions put forward were unacceptable to Zhu Lu.

They invariably asked Zhu Lu to abandon the fee system and switch to advertising and bundling junk software. ……

This made Zhu Lu unacceptable, and naturally there was no possibility of follow-up communication.

"Hey, go back and see if you can ...... again" Zhu Lu shook his head, and just as he wanted to leave, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Mr. Zhu, wait a minute, I think we can communicate."

The hope in Zhu Lu's heart burned again like a spark that had regained oxygen, and he turned his head to see a man and a woman standing behind him.

Maybe it's because they're too young, or maybe it's because the appearance of these two people is too outstanding, Zhu Lu was stunned for a moment.

The girl was wearing a black T-shirt, with a clear face and fair skin, as pure, gorgeous and beautiful as jasmine.

The boy is tall and big, with a gentle smile on his face, but there is a calm and confident bearing all over his body, as if nothing in the world can stump him, which is completely opposite to Zhu Lu, who is confused, helpless, and worried at the moment.

"You...... Hello. After being distracted for a second or two, Zhu Lu immediately reacted and hurriedly stretched out his hand.

"Hello." Lu Li gently shook Zhu Lu's hand, and then handed out a business card, "Hello Mr. Zhu, this is my business card." ”

For the convenience of socializing, Lu Li also printed a few business cards before, and now this time comes in handy.

Zhu Lu took the business card, and the first thing he saw was the big words "Xingchen Network".

……

The other side of the hall.

"Lao Su, just meet for the second time, let's go out for a few drinks together in the evening." A middle-aged man with a big belly smiled and put his arm on the shoulders of the man next to him and said enthusiastically.

"Don't drink, don't drink, I said before I came, I'm going home for dinner tonight."

The one who spoke was a tall middle-aged man, his figure was a little strong, not as bloated as a middle-aged man, his hair was not long, but it was very lush, and he had a rather majestic Chinese face, coupled with that kind of temperament that had experienced vicissitudes, he was definitely a middle-aged handsome guy.
