After a three-hour drive, Chen Mengchuan and Zhao Wanyu arrived at Golmud Airport and caught their flight to Xi'an City.

It was nearing evening by the time they got out of the airport.

Chen Mengchuan had a sensitive feeling that Zhao Wanyu had become a little different. On the plane, he was engrossed in the module design of Chisako, and Zhao Wanyu, sitting next to him, hadn't bothered him once. The only time she got up was to pour him a glass of orange juice. Then, she also took out her laptop and was constantly working on something.

After the plane landed in Xi'an City, they went directly to the pre-booked business hotel at the airport.

The next morning, Chen Mengchuan was woken up by Sun Zhongyong's phone call.

"Mengchuan, the first payments from Guo Siming and Xia Science Academy have both been processed. The total is 10.27 million," Sun Zhongyong said.

These two payments had truly shocked Sun Zhongyong. He had been operating Dell for many years, and although his annual turnover in the entire Su Province was between 200 and 300 million, selling hardware was not like selling software. Nowadays, the gross profit margins were outrageously low. After a year, the net profit was only 6-8%. After deducting dividends, the amount that would reach Sun Zhongyong's own hands might not even be 10 million.

Moreover, the competition in the hardware business was far greater than outsiders could see. Not only were there individual hardware brands, but sometimes they even had to compete with Dell's headquarters' sales team for orders. As the vendor, they faced issues like delayed payments, held payments, and even unrecoverable accounts receivable, the bitterness and helplessness of which could not be explained to outsiders.

Now, some of Chen Mengchuan's code and software testing could actually make Xia Science Academy, as the client, willingly pay tens of millions, and even treat the service provider like a revered elder...

"I arrived in Xi'an City yesterday. I have a flight back to Shanghai today and might stay in Shanghai for a few days. If the trip goes smoothly, I'll return to Su City after staying in Shanghai. As for Guo Siming, since the money has been paid, I will contact him and deliver it to him. You don't need to worry," Chen Mengchuan said slowly.

"Okay, be careful. I'll be in the park watching the renovation these few days. I've been running around a lot for some of the park's tech policies, and there are a few good tax exemptions."

Chen Mengchuan smiled and replied, "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Sun. When I get back, I'll treat you to a good meal to celebrate."

"No need for a meal. I've been eating and drinking with directors and officials in the park these days, and it's been exhausting. It would be best if you just come back safely soon," Sun Zhongyong said a few more nagging words before hanging up.

Chen Mengchuan put away his phone and prepared to get out of bed. He lifted the covers, got up, and went into the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face. Afterward, he sat down at the computer and called Guo Siming.

"Good morning, Brother Chuan. Please give me your instructions," Guo Siming answered quickly.

Ignoring Guo Siming's enthusiasm, Chen Mengchuan logged into Xia Science Academy's server through the port Guo Siming had sent. The Xuanyuan system reappeared before his eyes. He quickly scanned the entire system again, marveling that such a backward artificial intelligence system was actually one of the most cutting-edge in the global village at the moment.

Shaking off the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Chen Mengchuan focused his mind and quickly began to eliminate one problem after another, while also making minor deletions and modifications to content that he considered completely useless, and inserting new nodes.

Meanwhile, in the server room at Xia Science Academy in Beijing, twenty to thirty people were staring dumbfounded at the many new pieces of information and structures on the large screen. These were all Chen Mengchuan's commands. Everyone present could roughly understand some of these commands, but the screen-refreshing speed, like a waterfall, and the smooth command structure made everyone hold their breath and concentrate all their attention, trying to keep up with the rhythm on the screen.

At this moment, no one dared to speak or disturb others. Guo Siming, with bloodshot eyes, watched the constantly refreshing data on the screen. He had fallen into frantic research after encountering a part of the neural network algorithm structure sent by Chen Mengchuan a few days earlier. Therefore, he could understand most of what was on the screen now. The more he understood, the more shocked he was by Chen Mengchuan's work.

Two hours later, no new data appeared on the screen. The Xuanyuan system in this test environment was restarted, and green nodes representing success lit up one by one, finally completing 100% progress. Everyone in the server room cheered.

"Team Leader Guo, where did you find this master? It's simply divine. I can't believe there's such a master," a member of the AI team asked Guo Siming.

Guo Siming rolled his eyes. "Talk less, do more. Everyone, immediately copy all the logs from just now. Everyone must understand and familiarize themselves with all the command structures within. If there's anything you don't understand, think about it first. If you still don't get it, then come ask me with your thoughts! Do you understand!"

"Understood!" everyone said in unison.

After dealing with the Xuanyuan matter, Chen Mengchuan encrypted the complete first-stage artificial intelligence neural algorithm into a package and sent it to Guo Siming, hinting at Xia Science Academy's unique encryption and decryption methods in the email.

After finishing these tasks, he released his hands from the keyboard, closed his eyes, twisted his neck, and stretched his shoulders.

There was a knock on the door, and Chen Mengchuan went to open it.

Zhao Wanyu stood at the door, holding a lot of breakfast, and said with a smile, "I saw you hadn't come to the restaurant, so I figured you were probably still sleeping. I brought you some breakfast."

"Thank you. You're up quite early, but I was busy with some work," Chen Mengchuan said with a smile, taking the breakfast and opening the door to let Zhao Wanyu in.

"Brother Chuan, I've arranged interviews for tomorrow morning. There will be three rounds. First, it will be with my superior, HR Director Sister Wang, and then separate interviews with Manager Xu and Manager Toni. If you really intend to poach from Ke University, it will depend on your own abilities," Zhao Wanyu said with a smile directly.

"Haha, Wanyu, honestly, I think the one we should poach the most is you. Name your price, how about it?" Chen Mengchuan said with a smile.

"Really? In that case, I'll submit my resignation to Sister Wang when we get back," Zhao Wanyu said, laughing heartily.
