A few days later, Jiang Hao brought his secretary to Wuzhen for a high-level Internet conference. There, Jiang Hao met many legendary big names: Huawei, Alibaba, Q-Teng, Baidu, Hisilicon, as well as several banks, telecommunications companies, and more. Haoran Technology was merely a junior player and could only sit at the very end.
The conference discussed topics such as the industrial Internet, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, AI translation, self-driving cars, the currently popular domestic chip industry, Mobile Operating Systems, and more. In short, the country encouraged investment in high-tech research.
After the conference, Little Ma invited Jiang Hao to a gathering. There, Jiang Hao met Jack Ma for the first time.
"Hahaha, I told you long ago to come see me, but you never showed yourself. Actually, we're pretty close by. I heard you're working on supercomputers and want to research Artificial Intelligence. I've invested quite a bit in that area. That AI Phone Control Program you made before was very good. We should exchange ideas more when we have time," Jack Ma said with a smile as he shook Jiang Hao's hand.
"President Ma, I still have to thank you for what happened last time," Jiang Hao said, referring to the time Xinyan's Sister-in-law had been scammed, when Jiang Hao had asked President Ma to help investigate some information.
"Ah, that was nothing, nothing at all. Come on, let's drink tonight. I'll introduce you to a few friends, all people from the Internet industry," Jack Ma said with a smile.
Jiang Hao indeed met quite a few Internet industry giants, such as Robin Li and William Ding. When Jiang Hao shook hands with William Ding, he said with a smile, "President Ding, I played your Fantasy Westward Journey 2. It nearly corrupted me back then."
William Ding burst out laughing.
