Chapter 941: Chapter 826: Software Press Conference (Please Subscribe!)

April 21st.

Friday.

Shanghai Stock Market.

East Union Exhibition Center.

Tang Qing took a day off and arrived here early in the morning.

Accompanying Lin was Lin Jiaxue, because today was a special day. It was the day when Tianyan Group’s long-gestating office software, after internal testing, was finally going live.

It was supposed to go live at the beginning of the year.

But numerous problems were discovered during the internal testing.

It wasn’t a matter of technology, but rather functionality, habits, interface, new features, and so on, all needed to be optimized.

As a result, the feedback of a thousand words from each of the tens of thousands of employees involved in the testing pushed the software’s launch back by several months. After continuous internal adjustments, the current version was finally born.

To increase its influence.

The press conference wasn’t held in Qingyan City.

Instead, it took place in the Shanghai Stock Market.

For this, Tang Qing had mobilized his companies, inviting many friends and partners to attend. However, he somewhat underestimated his own industry’s influence. An invitation sent out almost couldn’t accommodate everyone who came.

Looking at the somewhat crowded entrance of the conference hall.

Tang Qing didn’t join the squeeze.

Instead, he took the VIP passage.

Tang Qing held Lin Jiaxue’s hand, swaying it as they walked, reminiscent of strolling down country lanes in childhood.

Two black-clad fighters followed behind.

Initially, Tang Qing hadn’t planned on coming, but Dou Jiao, as the host of the press conference, had cajoled and pleaded until finally, Tang Qing gave in—not to Dou Jiao, but to Lin Jiaxue.

Dou Jiao found that Lin Jiaxue had softer ears and was more easily persuaded.

Naturally.

Tang Qing became a ’bonus’ that came with the purchase.

About this.

He was also happy to accept.

Just to join in the fun.

The East Union Convention Center wasn’t particularly famous, but its advantage was its size. Most importantly, it was developed by a state-owned enterprise in the Shanghai Stock Market. Knowing that Tianyan was coming, Pan Yue immediately used his connections to secure this free venue.

"Jiaxue, Tang Qing."

As they were about to reach the VIP entrance.

A delicate shout came from behind.

In an instant.

Tang Qing identified the owner of the voice.

Looking back.

It was indeed Rong Ying.

Today’s Rong Ying looked completely different from the last time he saw her. The first time at Qingyan Airport, Rong Ying dressed casually to stay incognito, looking just like a paparazzi.

The second meeting was at Comet Film and Television’s celebration banquet, where she dressed dazzlingly, but this time, Rong Ying presented herself as a formal business journalist, wearing nondescript blue-framed glasses, looking very professional.

Tang Qing nodded inwardly.

This image of Rong Ying.

Indeed suited her better.

Rong Ying happily trotted over.

"Tang Qing, Jiaxue, long time no see." Rong Ying beamed as she took Lin Jiaxue’s hand, bypassing the two fighters. Since the last movie celebration banquet, the two of them had become acquainted and often chatted in the Penguin group.

That was a group started by Dou Jiao.

She had added a bunch of women.

All women known to both Lin Jiaxue and Tang Qing, including Chai Ren’s wife, Zhan Xi. They would casually chat in the group, share daily life, and talk about things between women. Their relationship had grown incredibly close.

Tang Qing was also in the group.

But he never participated.

"Rong sister, are you here for an interview?" Lin Jiaxue asked curiously, knowing that Rong Ying had stopped being an entertainment journalist and had become a finance journalist for Sina, but she did not expect to run into her here.

Rong Ying nodded vigorously a few times.

"Yeah, today’s task is to come here to take some photos and write an article by the way. Don’t worry, Tang Qing, I know Sky Eye is your company. The article will definitely satisfy you," Rong Ying said with a grin.

Tang Qing rolled her eyes.

"What, do you still want to bad mouth our company?"

"How dare I! If I did that, Jiaojiao would tear me to pieces, I bet. Hehe, Jiaojiao has already promised me an exclusive interview opportunity after the press conference," Rong Ying said, her eyes squinted into a sliver of a smile.

Tang Qing didn’t understand what she was so happy about.

Only Rong Ying knew.

It was the opportunity she had actively applied for and had gone through a lot of trouble to get. It was also her first ’big news’ interview since joining the company. Getting an exclusive interview with Dou Jiao would be a great help to her internship assessment.

She didn’t reveal her relationship with Dou Jiao.

Because she knew.

As a journalist, such a relationship is private. She could use it for herself, perhaps to get some insider financial news in the future, but if the editor found out about her private connections, she would get a lot of opportunities.

However, it would be embarrassing if excessively demanding tasks were pushed down from above in the future.

"Alright then, let’s go in together."

"Mhm."

Tang Qing held Lin Jiaxue’s left hand, while Rong Ying linked arms with her, feeling quite odd as they walked to the entrance of the convention center, where there were special personnel checking invitations. However, the person in charge was from Sky Eye.

Seeing Tang Qing.

An employee from Sky Eye respectfully greeted, "Good day, Chairman."

"Hello, find someone to take me to President Dou," Tang Qing said with a nod and a smile.

"Yes, sir."

Afterward.

Under the lead of a Sky Eye employee.

They arrived backstage.

They saw Dou Jiao discussing something with someone. When she saw Tang Qing, Dou Jiao’s face lit up with a smile. She exchanged a few words with that person before quickly walking towards Tang Qing.

"Jiaxue, you’re here," Dou Jiao said as she embraced Lin Jiaxue and then hugged Rong Ying.

And then.

That was it.

Tang Qing was treated as if he were invisible.

"Jiaojiao, where is Brother Pan?" Tang Qing demanded attention in frustration.

"Wow, Director Tang, you’re such a busy person and you actually came in person. When did you arrive? You should’ve said something earlier so I could have come out to greet you," Dou Jiao was still hung up about Tang Qing’s blunt refusal from the day before.

"Uh, my bad," Tang Qing replied, helpless.

"What did you do wrong?" Dou Jiao laughed.

"I shouldn’t have turned down the major product launch of the Group. I reflect on it deeply. Later, I’ll have someone write a self-criticism of one hundred thousand words and send it to your email," Tang Qing said, raising his hands and chuckling.

"Pfft..." Dou Jiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"You’re not going to write it yourself, and you’re using an electronic version, aren’t you? Is it just one hundred thousand repetitions of ’I was wrong’?" Dou Jiao said, not amused.

Tang Qing chuckled, "No, it’s ’one hundred thousand words of reflection’, five words."

"Okay then, make sure you remember to send it," Dou Jiao was resigned, not understanding what Tang Qing was thinking. Sky Eye was one of his major businesses, and this software was a project Tang Qing valued a lot.

Yet, he seemed indifferent about the product launch.

What she didn’t know.

Was that Tang Qing now had a large family business, and the financial strength he controlled was dozens of times what he showed.

He enjoyed initiating projects.

And he enjoyed seeing the results.

But for the remaining tasks, his interest had greatly diminished.

When Dou Jiao called yesterday, Tang Qing was looking at reports from Congo Gold, reviewing the development progress of Wan Qing Mining’s various mining fields, especially the mining field and the steel factory by Lake Kivu.

It was his focus.

To stimulate demand in the surrounding countries.

And have them help consume the steel factory’s output of Wan Qing Mining as well as the future expansion production, his fighters had already officially started their strategic deployment in the countries. He planned to use this steel factory to lever the economy of the five countries in Central Africa.

And then take a slice of the pie.
