Chapter 377 Orders Surge
Two days later, Jiang Si took the two little ones to the train station to see Huo Tingzhou off.
Perhaps because they were used to Huo Tingzhou's frequent trips, the two little ones were very calm this time, with no trace of sadness at parting on their faces.
As soon as the car arrived at the station square, Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao waved their little hands at Huo Tingzhou.
It was already quite cold in Beijing in November, and the train station was crowded.
Huo Tingzhou knelt down, tightened the scarves on the two children, and kissed each of their little faces. "Go back and be a good girl and listen to your mother, okay?"
Until the two little ones nodded.
He then stood up and looked at Jiang Si, "It's cold outside, you should go back early. I'll be back as soon as I'm done."
Jiang Si nodded. "Okay."
Despite saying that, Jiang Si still watched him enter the waiting room before taking the two little ones back.
...
After Huo Tingzhou left, life went on as usual.
However, after less than two days of peace and quiet, Uncle Huo arrived, this time to discuss the facial features template.
Jiang Si had been busy with matters concerning the international hotel, so these people had been waiting.
Right now, they've heard that the construction team has entered its winter break, but Jiang Si hasn't given them a definite answer, which is making them a little anxious.
"My office phone has been ringing off the hook these past few days. They call me every two days."
Uncle Huo had no other choice but to say, "Sisi, think it over. If you have other things to do or want to rest for a while longer, then I'll help you decline and we can talk about it after the New Year."
Jiang Si thought about it and decided to accept it for now.
Otherwise, staying at home every day would be quite boring.
The main reason is that the client gave a bit too much this time.
Another point is that she wants to try using the drawing method her master taught her on the facial features template.
I don't know how much the effect will be improved.
Seeing that Jiang Si nodded in agreement, Uncle Huo's side acted quickly, bringing the contract over the next day.
Looking at the amount on the contract, Mrs. Huo couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.
Of course, she knew her daughter-in-law's capabilities and that you get what you pay for.
She couldn't help with anything else, so Mrs. Huo could only try her best to cook delicious food for her.
With something to do, Jiang Si's life began to feel fulfilling again.
Moreover, all the materials needed to create the facial features database were provided by the other party, which saved Jiang Si a lot of trouble.
For the next few days, she would go to the embassy district every morning without fail to collect information.
In the afternoon, he focused on painting in his study.
Time flies when you're busy, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
After Jiang Si finished her work and confirmed that there were no problems, she called Uncle Huo and asked him to come and inspect the painting.
This was also agreed upon in the original contract. The other party paid a 50% deposit first, and the remainder would be paid after the inspection was completed and there were no problems.
Of course, all payments were settled in foreign currency, so this deal was profitable no matter how you looked at it.
Uncle Huo was quite confident in Jiang Si's abilities.
However, when the other party heard that Jiang Si had finished almost ten days earlier than expected, they felt somewhat uneasy.
Before signing the contract, they had specifically inquired about the batch of templates that Jiang Si had customized for the public security system, and it had taken more than fifty days to complete.
Although they opted for fewer template types this time, the speed has improved significantly.
Who knows if she cut corners or tried to fool them!
Thinking about all this, the other party was clearly getting impatient and agitated.
Unfortunately, the translator hadn't arrived yet.
The group couldn't help but whisper among themselves in the meeting room.
The template was customized for Country Y. At this time, the two countries had not yet established embassies in each other's countries, and their diplomacy was at the level of chargé d'affaires.
Perhaps thinking that Jiang Si wouldn't understand, the other party didn't deliberately lower their voice.
What they didn't know was that Jiang Si's girls' school had always been bilingual.
“Sorry to bother you, I think I need to explain something.” Jiang Si spoke fluent English, which quickly caught the other party’s attention.
Wow! I didn't expect you to be such a good writer of Y-words!
The other person, surprised, introduced himself: "My name is George."
"Hello Mr. George, I am Jiang Si."
Seeing that Jiang Si's English was quite good, George explained what had just happened, "Sorry, we were a little surprised. Why was the speed so much faster this time?"
I understand your concerns.
Jiang Si said frankly, "In fact, I could contact you again in ten days, or I could find an excuse to deliberately delay it for a few days."
"This way, there won't be any misunderstandings, and it will also make me appear more serious and meticulous."
George was surprised by her words, and after a moment's thought, he realized that what she said made some sense.
But what he was more curious about was, "Then why don't you do it that way?"
"Because it's unnecessary."
After saying that everyone's time is precious, Jiang Si got straight to the point.
"I was able to draw quickly because I learned from my previous experience, and also because I made some improvements this time and tried a new drawing method."
Facts speak louder than words.
After Jiang Si finished speaking, she took out the facial feature template she had drawn.
Then, she made a direct comparison by putting the set she drew the year before last, which is the one currently used by the public security system, together with it.
If you only look at one of the pictures, you might not be able to tell the difference.
But when the two pictures are placed side by side, the difference in quality becomes immediately apparent.
It's obvious that the later drawing is superior in terms of expression, texture, image quality, and three-dimensionality.
As for how she did it, Jiang Si didn't go into details.
Next, she handed the completed drawings over to the police officers.
Whether it's good or bad, her opinion is useless; we have to see the actual results.
In addition to the staff brought by Y, Uncle Huo also randomly selected a few people from the public security officers to participate in the test.
It was Jiang Si who brought this up herself.
Not only were George and his companions surprised by this, but even Uncle Huo initially disagreed when he first heard about it.
After all, people are of different races, and it is difficult for ordinary people to remember someone's appearance at a glance.
But Jiang Si insisted on this, so he had no choice but to agree.
Fortunately, the final result did not disappoint.
After Y tested this new facial feature database template, the accuracy rate was over 93%.
Although the accuracy of the Chinese side is a bit lower, the accuracy rate is still over 85%!
So, Mr. George readily paid the balance that afternoon.
However, to Jiang Si's surprise, this matter brought her some unexpected joy.
After the completed facial features template was launched in Country Y, it was met with an overwhelming wave of praise.
To be honest, when they decided to have this template customized in China, it was because it was cheap.
If you were to commission a specialist to customize the same template in country Y, it would take at least three months.
The required cost is several times that in China.
The second reason is actually just about saving face.
To put it bluntly, they just want to do China a favor.
But no one expected that this template would be so easy to use, portable, cost-effective, and incredibly useful.
As a result, police officers in Country Y now carry a set of [equipment/tools] when they go out to handle cases.
Due to the overwhelming positive reviews, a flood of orders followed.
In less than half a month, the Ministry of Public Security received more than ten letters of intent.
Jiang Si was worrying about how to arrange her time when Chris came looking for her early that morning.
Jiang Si is currently in the living room with the two little ones.
Upon hearing the knock on the door, Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao, who were playing with building blocks, quickly scrambled up from their mats.
Ever since the two little ones accidentally ran to the door and opened it once, and Jiang Si kissed their little faces and praised them a lot, things have changed.
Now, the two little ones have completely taken over the task of opening and closing the doors at home.
Fortunately, the door handle wasn't very high; you could get up by standing on tiptoe.
The two little ones worked together and finally managed to open the door.
When Chris saw that it was the two little ones who opened the door, her eyes lit up immediately. "Why did you open the door?"
As she spoke, she bent down and leaned closer, "Do you still recognize me?"
The two little ones blinked their big eyes and nodded first.
Then, in a childish voice, she called out, "Pretty Auntie~~"
Chris was overjoyed by the term "pretty auntie." She had only visited once, but the two little ones remembered her.
Just then, the two little ones waved to her.
"Auntie, come in!"
"They're so well-behaved!" Chris couldn't help but pat the two little ones' heads. After sitting down, she smiled and said to Jiang Si, "I'm so envious of you. You have two such well-behaved babies!"
"I've only been here once, and they already remember me!"
As Jiang Si listened, she silently wondered: Is it possible that they would call everyone they met "pretty auntie"?
However, she didn't say that.
Jiang Si got up and made Chris a cup of coffee, then casually asked, "What have you been up to lately? I haven't heard from you in ages."
Chris took the coffee, took a sip, and replied with a smile, "Went hiking."
"Hiking?" Jiang Si raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Going hiking in the dead of winter?"
“Yes,” Chris said earnestly, “Chi Heng likes hiking, so I invited him to go hiking with me.”
After Chi's mother and those people were arrested, they began to try to get to know each other seriously, as agreed beforehand.
Jiang Si nodded knowingly. Fortunately, the mountains near Beijing were not very high.
Otherwise, climbing mountains in the dead of winter would be too much of a hardship.
