Chapter 95 Stay away from him

Fine! It won't make a difference if I have to stay one more night!

He picked up the braised egg, bread, and yogurt from the ground and asked Chen Jingyang, "By the way, I didn't have a chance to ask you yesterday, how come your alcohol tolerance has become so low?"

Chen Jingyang rubbed his nose, his expression unchanged, and said, "I guess I wasn't paying attention when I was drinking on an empty stomach with Xu Jintian and the others that day, and I got a little agitated. So, what are you going to do with all this stuff? You're not going to give it all to me to eat, are you?"

Zhang Pengfei placed the food on the coffee table: "What else? You have no idea how you looked last night, your brows were furrowed like two earthworms, it was painful to see."

He glanced at Chen Jingyang and said casually, "Eat the egg and bread, then I'll get you some water and some yogurt. You might feel better at dinner tonight."

Chen Jingyang smiled and hugged him from behind, his warm breath brushing against his ear: "Thank you, baby."

It itches! Zhang Pengfei turned her head away and said coquettishly, "Let go! Don't you know what time it is? You'll be late!"

Chen Jingyang licked his ear, which made Zhang Pengfei scream in surprise before he let go with a mischievous grin.

He sat on the sofa, peeled a hard-boiled egg, took a small bite, and crossed his legs: "The Cloud Steps and Moon Land are so close, it only takes ten minutes to get there, how could I be late?"

If John Cramer saw this, it would probably shock the old man!

Zhang Pengfei put down the water and was about to leave when Chen Jingyang stopped him: "You're already here, have a meal with me before you go! It's been so long, and we haven't even had a proper conversation yet."

Zhang Pengfei snorted and thought to himself, "Isn't this all your fault, you bastard?"

However, he did have some things he wanted to say to Chen Jingyang in person, so he sat down and asked, "I always feel that this makes us too dependent on Zenti's chips. If there are supply problems, we will be in a very passive position. Some of the terms are too risky. Why do you still insist on signing them?"

Chen Jingyang frowned slightly: "Seriously! I asked you to chat with me, and you're going to talk to me about work?!"

"Tsk!" Zhang Pengfei glared at him: "Speak up! If you don't, I'm leaving."

Chen Jingyang sighed: "Alright, alright, I'll tell you. This is the result after considering many factors, okay?"

Zhang Pengfei: "Please elaborate, I don't quite understand."

Chen Jingyang smiled, picked up his water bottle and took a sip, then patiently explained, "There aren't many companies on the market that can make this custom chip and meet our requirements. After comparing various factors, Zenti is the best choice."

At this point, he said somewhat nonchalantly, "Besides, fortune favors the bold; there's no such thing as a business without any risk."

"Isn't there any other way, such as developing our own chips?"

Chen Jingyang shook his head: "Developing our own chips requires an investment of at least 5 billion yuan. We don't have that much funding right now, and even if we did, it would be difficult to produce something in less than three to five years."

"Even if we manage to make it, it's hard to say whether it will perform well. Others have accumulated years of experience to reach their current level of technology, but the market won't give us time to figure it out."

“However…” Chen Jingyang paused, seemingly lost in thought, “If the algorithm can be improved again, perhaps…”

He twitched the corner of his mouth and said self-deprecatingly, "Forget it, I won't say anymore, it's not realistic."

Zhang Pengfei's curiosity was piqued: "Tell me! Let me hear it!"

Chen Jingyang looked at him and smiled, "You really want to hear it?"

"Yes!" Zhang Pengfei nodded firmly!

Chen Jingyang turned his head to the side and nodded: "Then come over and give me a kiss, and I'll tell you."

"You...!" Zhang Pengfei was speechless, but he really wanted to know, so he got up, bent down and gently pecked Chen Jingyang on the cheek.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Jingyang grabbed the back of Zhang Pengfei's head and pulled him into his arms. Zhang Pengfei felt a strong force coming at him and was directly pressed down into Chen Jingyang's arms!

He was startled: "Chen Jingyang!"

"Don't move!"

Chen Jingyang looked down at the person in his arms: "If you really want to listen, then listen in this position."

"Damn it, you...! I'm not listening anymore, let go of me!"

Chen Jingyang grinned mischievously and pinched Zhang Pengfei lightly on the side. Zhang Pengfei gasped and let out a muffled groan.

"You can listen if you want, or not if you don't?" Chen Jingyang chuckled. "Dream on!"

He couldn't break free; every time he moved, Chen Jingyang would exert force. It was too difficult!

A little bit of water welled up in Zhang Pengfei's eyes. This really is a case of curiosity killing the cat!

There was nothing else he could do but pray that Chen Jingyang would speak quickly: "Then... speak quickly!"

Chen Jingyang glanced at the dark sky outside the window, as if recalling some distant past.

He gently kneaded the wound and said, "Actually, there's another reason I returned to China, which almost no one knows."

The voice was soft and gentle, but Zhang Pengfei could detect a hint of melancholy in it.

"During my freshman summer, I went through a rigorous selection process to intern at a top AI lab. I came up with a brilliant idea for a super-efficient algorithm based on a dynamic sparse spiking neural network, but it was criticized mercilessly."

“The entire industry is chasing computing power, and even top laboratories are not immune to this trend. I was very disappointed and felt that there was no point in staying abroad, so I came back not long after, and that’s how Tanzhi came about.”

Although he had crammed a lot of relevant knowledge, Zhang Pengfei was still completely baffled by some highly specialized things, such as the ultra-efficient algorithm based on dynamic sparse spiking neural networks that Chen Jingyang had just mentioned.

However, he knew that Tanzhi's innovation in algorithms significantly reduced the demand for computing power, which is why it brought an earthquake-like shock to the industry!

After Chen Jingyang finished speaking, he released Zhang Pengfei, but bit him on the neck just as he was about to get up.

"Ugh...!" Zhang Pengfei cried out in pain and pinched Chen Jingyang's inner thigh hard in return!

"Ouch...!" Chen Jingyang winced in pain. "Baby, you... you're so cruel!"

Taking the opportunity, Zhang Pengfei stood up, gently rubbing his neck, and glared at him fiercely: "Serves you right!"

Chen Jingyang frowned and smiled: "Leaving already? There's still some time left, nothing else you want to say?"

Since Chen Jingyang was so willing to talk, Zhang Pengfei stopped and asked another question he really wanted to know: "You and Li Jianren have known each other for a long time, and you're good friends?"

Upon hearing the mention of Li Jianren, Chen Jingyang's face immediately fell, and the scene in the bathroom last night suddenly popped into his mind without warning.

Fortunately, they will be going back after the signing ceremony tomorrow, so they shouldn't have much time to deal with Zhang Pengfei.

"Don't mention that bitch Li!" Chen Jing raised an eyebrow and warned, "Also, stay away from him! Don't have any contact with him, understand?"
