After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight

"The company's new product development is already on the agenda. I want to..." Before Gu Jinyan finished speaking, Su Li interrupted him excitedly, "Are we going to enter the smart home field?"

Gu Jinyan smiled and nodded, his eyes full of admiration: "The one who understands me is Li'er. I have asked the marketing department to collect a large amount of user data. Now all we need is a core function that can grasp the user's pain points."

"How difficult is that?" Su Li smiled confidently, "Let's go to the R&D department right away and brainstorm. We will definitely find a breakthrough!"

Gu Jinyan and Su Li immediately called together a team of R&D engineers and started a brainstorming session. In the conference room, the engineers talked one after another, and all kinds of wonderful ideas emerged one after another. Su Li and Gu Jinyan listened carefully and put forward their own opinions and suggestions from time to time.

"I think we can start with the user's usage habits, such as..." A young engineer put forward his idea.

“This is a good idea, but it needs some further consideration…” another engineer added.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan listened and took notes in their notebooks. They keenly captured every shining point, integrated and collided different ideas, and gradually formed the prototype of a new product.

After several days of intense discussion and repeated deliberation, the R&D team finally determined the core functions of the new product: intelligent voice control, personalized scene customization, and remote security monitoring. This solution perfectly combines market demand and technical advantages, and was unanimously recognized by everyone as soon as it was proposed.

Next, it was the technical research stage. In order to bring the new product to the market as soon as possible, the R&D team worked day and night. However, just when everything seemed to be going smoothly, a sudden technical problem stood in their way.

"Mr. Gu, Director Su, we have encountered a difficult problem..." The R&D director walked into the office with a serious expression and reported the situation to Gu Jinyan and Su Li.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li looked at each other, and both saw determination and confidence in each other's eyes. "What's the problem? Tell me." Gu Jinyan asked in a deep voice.

"It's about..." The R&D director paused, frowning, with a hint of worry in his tone, "About the stability of the intelligent voice control system..."

The R&D director took a deep breath and continued, "Existing voice recognition technology is easily interfered with in noisy environments, resulting in command recognition errors. If this problem is not solved, it will seriously affect the user experience and may even cause safety risks."

Hearing this, Su Li and Gu Jinyan's expressions became serious. They knew the seriousness of this problem and knew that it would be a tough battle.

"We must find a solution as soon as possible!" Gu Jinyan said decisively, "The R&D team will do their best to overcome technical difficulties, and the marketing department will adjust the publicity strategy at the same time to minimize the risks."

Su Li also added calmly: "I suggest contacting several top voice recognition technology companies to seek technical cooperation. At the same time, we should increase investment in research and development, encourage team innovation, and strive to break through the bottleneck as soon as possible."

Gu Jinyan nodded approvingly. Su Li could always give him the most reasonable suggestions when he needed them most. The tacit understanding between them was beyond words.

In the following days, the entire company entered a high-speed operation state. The R&D team worked all night to tackle technical problems, testing and optimizing again and again; the marketing department actively communicated with major media and channels to warm up for the release of new products.

Hard work pays off. With the joint efforts of all employees, the technical difficulties have finally been solved. The voice recognition system of the new product can accurately recognize commands in various complex environments, and has a faster response speed and a higher recognition rate.

When the news spread, the whole company was suddenly filled with joy. In order to celebrate this important milestone, Gu Jinyan specially held a grand celebration dinner in the company.

At the dinner, Gu Jinyan and Su Li thanked all the employees and announced the good news that the new product would be launched soon. As soon as the news came out, thunderous applause broke out at the scene, and everyone's face was filled with joy and pride.

At this moment, an investor raised his glass, walked up to Gu Jinyan and Su Li, and said excitedly: "Mr. Gu, Director Su, congratulations! I am impressed by the design concept and technical level of the new product. I believe it will be a huge success! I have decided to make additional investments to fully support your large-scale production and promotion!"

The generosity of investors is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of the new product. Gu Jinyan and Su Li smiled at each other, raised their glasses, and clinked glasses with the investors to celebrate.

However, they didn't know that behind the joy of victory, a storm was quietly brewing... Gu Jinyan's phone vibrated twice during the noisy dinner, but he didn't pay attention. It was not until the end of the dinner that he clicked on the text message from the unknown number.

"Jin Yan, congratulations, I knew you could do it."

The sender's name was not signed, but Gu Jinyan recognized it at a glance. It was Lin Wan, the woman he once loved deeply but eventually chose to let go. After Lin Wan left, she went abroad, and they had almost lost contact over the years.

Gu Jinyan was silent for a moment and deleted the text message, as if he could erase those memories. However, once some things happen, they are bound to leave traces in the heart.

The next day, Gu Jinyan was processing documents in the office when his assistant knocked on the door and came in with an embarrassed look on his face. "Mr. Gu, Miss Lin is here and wants to see you."

"No." Gu Jinyan refused without even raising his head, his tone cold.

"She said...she said if you don't see her, she'll keep waiting."

Gu Jinyan tapped his fingers on the table. He knew Lin Wan's character. If he refused to see her, she would really do what she said.

He sighed and finally gave in, "Let her in."

Lin Wan was wearing a well-tailored business suit today, looking capable and elegant, totally different from the weak girl in her memory. She walked into the office with a perfect smile on her face, as if they were just old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

"Jin Yan, long time no see."

Gu Jinyan responded calmly, motioning for her to sit down, and said in a distant tone, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Lin Wan placed an exquisite gift box on the table and pushed it in front of him. "This is a gift I specially selected for you to celebrate the great success of your new product."

"Thank you, but no thanks, I already have a gift."

The smile on Lin Wan's face froze slightly, but she quickly regained her composure, "I know you are with Su Li now, but I still want to tell you that I have always loved you and have never forgotten you."

"Lin Wan, let the past be the past. It's impossible for us to do anything anymore." Gu Jinyan's tone was calm, but his eyes were extremely firm.

"Why not? Don't you miss the time we spent together at all?" Lin Wan's eyes were red and her voice was choked with sobs.

Gu Jinyan was silent, those beautiful memories flooded into his mind like a tide, but he quickly suppressed the waves in his heart, "The past is no longer meaningful, I just want to cherish the person in front of me now."

Lin Wan wanted to say something else, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Gu Jinyan, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early."

Lin Wan couldn't hold back her tears and fell. She bit her lips unwillingly, but finally picked up her bag, turned around and left the office.

Gu Jinyan looked at Lin Wan's departing back, feeling mixed emotions. He knew that what he did was cruel, but he couldn't give her any hope, otherwise it would only make her more miserable.

In order to celebrate the success of the new product, the company held a grand celebration. Employees gathered together to share the joy of victory and were full of hope for the future. Gu Jinyan held a glass of wine, looking at the smiling faces, and a gratified smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that all this was inseparable from the joint efforts of everyone, and he would lead everyone to move towards a higher goal.

However, at this moment, his phone vibrated again, and a text message from his assistant came into view, "Mr. Gu, something happened..."

Chapter 119 The Light of Wisdom

Gu Jinyan's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over him. He immediately called his assistant and asked in a hurried tone, "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Gu, please read the news!" The assistant's voice was a little flustered.

Gu Jinyan hung up the phone and quickly opened the news on his phone. The front page showed a striking headline: **"XX company launches revolutionary product, which may subvert the industry!"**

He clicked on the news, quickly read through the content, and his face turned pale. The product introduced in the news was extremely similar to the new product that their company was about to launch, but the release time was one step earlier than theirs!

The noisy sounds of celebration seemed to be muted. Gu Jinyan's face was terribly gloomy. He walked quickly towards Su Li, held her hand, and said in a heavy tone, "Follow me."

Su Li had never seen Gu Jinyan with such a serious expression. She realized the seriousness of the matter and followed him into the office without asking any more questions.

Gu Jinyan handed the phone to Su Li and pointed at the news, "Look."

Su Li read the news carefully and frowned slightly. As an excellent business manager, she knew that in this fiercely competitive market, time is money and speed is life. The sudden appearance of competitors undoubtedly brought them tremendous pressure and challenges.

"It seems that we have met our match." Su Li said calmly, without losing his composure.

"Their product was released earlier than ours, and judging from the publicity, the functions are very similar to ours, which is very disadvantageous to us." There was a hint of anxiety in Gu Jinyan's tone.

"Don't worry, let's analyze their products carefully first." Su Li said calmly, "Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle."

Gu Jinyan nodded and immediately called together the core members of the R&D team to hold an emergency meeting.

The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn, and the R&D engineers all looked grim as they watched the news.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Su, what should we do now? Our product has not even been launched on the market yet, but already it has been preempted..." a young R&D engineer said in a worried tone.

"Why are you panicking?" Gu Jinyan interrupted him sternly, "Let's analyze calmly first, find out their strengths and weaknesses, and then formulate a response strategy."

Su Li went on to say, "I believe that our products have undergone a long period of research and development and testing, and must have their own unique advantages. Now, what we need to do is to maximize these advantages and let the market see our value."

Gu Jinyan and Su Li's words, like a magic needle, stabilized the emotions of the R&D team. Everyone began to calm down and carefully studied the product information of competitors, trying to find a breakthrough.

"Although the functions of their products are similar to ours, there seem to be some defects in terms of technical parameters..." said a senior R&D engineer, pointing to a set of data on the screen.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other, and a gleam of light flashed in their eyes at the same time...
