Background / History
Zhao Wanyu initially worked at Ke University under Wang Fanghua in Human Resources. After meeting Chen Mengchuan, she recognized his value as the former leader of Xia Science Academy’s Xuanyuan AI project and sought to recruit him for Ke University. She reported the encounter to Sister Wang, who instructed her to keep watch on him and invite him to the university. 8 9
She traveled with Chen through Qinghai, remained in Balagetu Village out of curiosity about both the place and Chen’s unusual familiarity with it, and arranged for him to meet Xu Shuwei and Toni Chen. 14 17 18 21 After Wang Fanghua was dismissed from Ke University, Zhao resigned, moved to Su City, and joined Tianzhi Technology. 26 37
Zhao invested 600 million yuan into Tianzhi and became closely involved in the company’s early operations, including administrative work, recruitment, product promotion, and production expansion. 28 36 Chen later appointed her Executive CEO of Tianzhi, entrusting her with responsibility for the company’s major and minor affairs. 111 Public reporting subsequently identified her as Tianzhi’s Executive President, while Chen remained the largely unseen chairman and chief researcher. 120
Her relationship with Chen developed from professional interest and companionship into marriage. After Zhao discovered she was pregnant, Chen proposed; they later had a daughter, Chen Zhihui. 118 120 188
Appearance
Zhao is described as having fair skin, rosy cheeks, and large, bright eyes. When visiting Chen’s family home, she wore her bangs styled to frame her face and tucked behind her ears. 21 26
- Fair, rosy complexion 21 26
- Large, expressive eyes 26
- Often presents herself professionally at Tianzhi events and public broadcasts 157 223
Personality
Zhao is proactive and decisive. Her first encounter with Chen was driven by her determination not to let an exceptional AI specialist escape Ke University’s recruitment efforts. 8 9 She later demonstrated the same initiative at Tianzhi by relocating to Su City, investing heavily in the company, and independently organizing large-scale recruitment and technological projects. 26 28 96
She is practical about technology, favoring implementation and mass production over waiting for ideal theoretical results. This outlook shaped her push to manufacture three-crystal graphene chips while Chen remained focused on more advanced single-crystal research. 171 178
Despite her assertiveness, Zhao is attentive to people around her. She cares for overworked researchers, advocates rest for stalled project teams, considers the pressures faced by female employees, and regularly ensures that Chen eats and rests during periods of intense research. 97 101 170 172
Her early life lacked parental guidance and close companionship; she identified Wang Fanghua as her first close friend. 105 This background informs both her independence and her loyalty to the people she considers family.
