After finishing the video chat with Jiang Fanxi, Tang Yi opened the business card holder of his phone and found Li Haiyan's phone number. He dialed for a few seconds, but before he could answer the phone, he cut the phone again.

The thin cell phone was spinning in his palm, and he was thinking whether it was necessary to communicate with Li Haiyan about Jiang Fanxi's affairs.

Li Haiyan is an experienced investment manager. Her style may be a bit strict, but her professional ethics are fine. She will not do the same thing as Jing Jizhi who covets the other party's technology and prepares to be re-elected.

Regarding the time difference between meetings, let Jiang Fanxi communicate with her by himself, which will also be beneficial to their future cooperation and running-in.

Tang Yi felt that he should not interfere too much in this matter.

Just as I was thinking, the phone in my hand was shocked.

He turned over and saw that it was Lee Hae-yeon who called back and answered: "Hi, helen, good evening."

On the other end of the phone, Lee Hae-yeon said: "Ty, is there anything you need to find me?" Chinese is Shunliu and can even turn it inverted.

Tang Yi smiled and said in a gentle tone: "Was fanxi's project, james (Jing Jizhi) handed over to you?"

"Okay, james, he just had a meeting with several of their senior executives last night and also informed the other side that I had just sent an email to the two founders 30 minutes ago."

Tang Yi had an impulse to remind Li Haiyan to be polite to Jiang Fanxi. He was talking on the tip of his tongue, and before he could say it, on the other side of the phone, Li Haiyan asked, "Ty, come back in February?"

One day in February this year is the 10th anniversary of Horton's founding. A cocktail party will be held at that time. Tang Yi, as the founder and major shareholder, normally attends.

"Yes," said Tang Yi, "I will take my fiancée back to Chicago in early February to register for marriage. I will stay in the United States until the 10th anniversary party and then return to China."

The other end of the phone was quiet for a few seconds, and Li Haiyan heard "Congratulations to your boss."

"Thank you." Tang Yi planned to hang up the phone, "Okay, I won't disturb your work anymore, goodbye."

...

The next day, as soon as Jiang Fanxi went to work, he replied to Li Haiyan, and on the grounds of the time difference, he hoped that the meeting time would be adjusted from 8:00 to 11:00 in Beijing time, that is, from 20:00 to 23:00 in Washington time.

This is what she can think of, and it will not affect the rest period of both parties at the very least.

In fact, she originally wanted to propose that they would go to work from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. After all, they would go to work at 9 a.m., but considering that Washington time would be from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., sometimes the meeting would be delayed for a little later, which would seem to affect Lee Hae-yeon's rest. Finally, she decided that Fanxi would go to work one hour in advance.

After the email was sent out, Jiang Fanxi got up and went to find Ren Xuanhan.

The person was not in the office, and the secretary said he was in the laboratory.

Jiang Fanxi went upstairs again.

In the huge laboratory, Ren Xuanhan sat alone in front of a whole row of computers, putting one hand on the back of the chair next to him, pinching the mountain root with the other hand, leaning against the computer chair, looking very tired.

Jiang Fanxi walked over, sat down beside him, and said in a gentle voice: "If you are tired, go down and have a rest?"

Ren Xuanhan opened his eyes, sat up straight, and said nothing.

Jiang Fanxi glanced at the dense codes on the black-bottomed screen and asked: "Are you doing the work of a three-dimensional AI chip?"

Ren Xuanhan nodded: "Yes."

"I just happened to talk to you about this," Jiang Fanxi asked, "Is it convenient for you now?"

"convenient."

"I plan to propose to Horton that the investment amount this time will increase from 300 million to 2 billion, and we will first confirm that both the B and C rounds can be consolidated."

Ren Xuanhan turned to look at her with a puzzled look: "Aren't you worried that Horton invested 300 million yuan before, and the share ratio would exceed the two of us? Now it costs 2 billion yuan, so our shares will be diluted to less than 20%.

Jiang Fanxi sighed and organized it in his heart, then said: "I thought later that if we hold on to the shares, it will be difficult to raise funds, and the company will stop. There are less than 30,000 accompanying robots on the market at present. This market is so big, we must increase the volume and maximize profits. By then, even if our shares are fewer than now, the dividends will definitely be more than now."

After finishing her video call with Tang Yi last night, she thought about it until midnight and finally figured out what Tang Yi meant thoroughly.

"Then, we stripped the AI ​​chip project from Fanxi and invested by both of us, so this project has nothing to do with Horton."

Ren Xuanhan didn't say anything for a long time.

He was thinking about the feasibility of Jiang Fanxi's words.

After a while, I felt it was inappropriate and shook my head: "It takes at least one billion yuan to build a three-dimensional AI chip factory. Have you ever thought about how long it takes to get this one billion with the shares of our two of us after Fanxi Intelligence?"

"Think about it," said Jiang Fanxi, "if we sell another million escort robots, we can get a dividend of one billion."

"The cost of a million escort robots is 5 billion. If so, is Horton enough even if he promises to raise another 2 billion to us?"

"Absolutely enough!" Jiang Fanxi was sure, "Don't forget that the upgraded maintenance service of the robot can also bring some revenue. Next, let the technical department develop the surrounding areas of the robot, such as the robot's clothing, or even the outer body of different colors. Just like keeping a pet, you must send pets to bathe and shave your hair regularly, buy clothes, bags and necklaces for pets, etc.."

Ren Xuanhan asked her without comment: "Did you think about the consequences of having Horton hold a large proportion of shares?"

Jiang Fanxi was silent for a moment and asked back: "This is what I want to discuss with you today. If we support the two projects of robots and AI chips, we can only save one of them. Which one do you want to protect?"

She is actually not very interested in the AI ​​chip project, but she knows that this is a change that can promote all industries related to the field of artificial intelligence, and even its significance will no longer be profit, but a milestone-like existence.

The country currently has more than 20 fields relying on imported chips, which cover almost all aspects of the country's entire manufacturing system and people's lives. The patent fees and taxes spent on imported chips every year are unimaginable. Even because of political factors, people don't sell your chips in one sentence.

The suppression of hegemony is controlled by chips.

"If we can achieve independent research and development of key chips, it will bring huge benefits to the country's economy and industrial chain." Jiang Fanxi concluded, "Emotionally, I will hope to keep the AI ​​chip project. I personally do not have a particularly great pursuit of material things, and now I have a house. The motivation to make money is nothing more than doing something that can help others. But what I really hope in my heart is that our country can truly become stronger and no longer be subject to malicious suppression and unfair sanctions!"

In the huge laboratory, Jiang Fanxi's passionate voice was resounding.

Ren Xuanhan looked at her, and after a moment, he smiled: "Okay, then do what you said... Jiang Fanxi, I'm not wrong with you."

Jiang Jiang’s ideals are actually bound to Tang Yi’s ideals. The fact that she can have such an enlightenment comes from a sentence that Jing Qin passed on to Tang Yi when she was fifteen years old - Mr. Han hopes that you can learn and return to China, and if you can, do something for the country.

So she can give up the accompanying robot project she developed, just to protect the AI ​​chip project.
