##133, Standard Assembly

On the New Year's Eve of this year, Shen Kong and his party are destined to spend it in a foreign country.

I thought New Year's Eve in New York would be deserted, but I didn't expect it to be full of New Year's flavor. Chinese elements can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, especially near Chinatown. The celebrations are held directly on the streets, and the local Chinese and tourists are intertwined. It became a lively scene, much more festive than the empty cities in China.

At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, it was already dark, and there was a commotion outside with gongs and drums beating, so Lou Qingyan took people out for a stroll, and happened to see the lion dance team parading the street.Someone on the side of the road said that there will be patrols of traditional cultural floats later, and there will be New Year fireworks shows and other activities.I don't know who is the organizer of this New Year's celebration. It is lively every year, attracting countless foreign tourists, and it has the tendency to become the signature celebration of this street.

Shen Le is playful, so he flew up to the lion dance arena with a stride, insisting on beating drums for others.

Xie Jin shook his head and laughed, and said to Lou Qingyan: "It's not bad to celebrate the New Year like this."

After a while, Yan Zizhen, who was acting as a temporary assistant, ran over holding his mobile phone, "Boss, Ali's people asked if we want to have a New Year's Eve dinner together."

"What?" Xie Jin looked surprised, "Ask us together?"

"It's not just us, I heard that everyone who came to participate in the conference called it, even the penguins called it."

"My God," Shen Le just came back, and when he heard this, he had a strange expression on his face, "Ali wants to eat with the penguin?"

"It's not just eating together, but celebrating the New Year together." Lou Qingyan waved his hands and walked back, "Promise them."

So the New Year's Eve dinner was very grand, it was like having a dinner party, but it was also very down-to-earth. A group of people booked a Chinese restaurant, no matter who they knew or not, they would sit at the same table and communicate during the meal. Interesting stories about their respective companies.

If you meet an employee of Deep Space, you must ask two questions, first, have you ever seen a fire, and second, are Lou Qingyan and Jiang Fu really in love.

Lou Qingyan and Jiang Fu walked to the front and sat with the leaders of the other companies.

Nowadays, his identity is no longer a secret among the senior management of various companies. When they saw him coming, all the people who were pushing glasses stopped talking and stood up.

Seeing the little employees on the table next to him, they were stunned, thinking that Lou Qingyan is no longer a rich second generation, how could he let these directors and general managers stand up to greet him?

One of the directors was so excited that his cheeks were flushed, he went up to Qingyan with both hands, grabbed his outstretched hand, shook his arm into waves like shaking a quilt, and said repeatedly: "Fire, I have admired my name for a long time, I have admired my name for a long time, I finally see you!"

The little employee next to him accidentally listened: "...?"

"?????"

Lou Qingyan was forced to shake hands with a table of people before he sat down, and then he basically became the center of everyone's topic.In terms of status, he is the only leader who personally leads the team. He has the most topics in terms of topics, not to mention achievements. If you don’t talk about him, who will you talk about?

People who are too used to socializing, as long as they sit at the wine table, no matter whether they are talking about business or not, their speech will inevitably look greasy.Among the social people in the table, Lou Qingyan was the only one who was the most relaxed. He spoke willfully and directly.

His way of speaking without the slightest bit of politeness sounds very student-like at first, but after listening to it for a long time, he feels very comfortable. When the conversation gradually started, everyone at the table was actually led astray by him. More and more relaxed, after drinking three rounds, there is even a posture of exchanging shallow words.

"Mr. Fire," someone finally asked, "What do you think of this conference? Is there any hope for our domestic technology?"

"That's what you said," someone immediately reprimanded, "The conference hasn't started yet, so don't dampen everyone's confidence."

"Don't tell me," the former waved his hand, "I just want to hear Teacher Fire's opinion."

Lou Qingyan said with a half-smile, "Why, are you afraid?"

The questioner opened his mouth and gave up, raised his glass and said, "Oh, forget it, Teacher Fire, I'll toast you first."

In fact, everyone knows that the situation facing domestic enterprises at this conference is not good.Domestic technology is not inferior to others, but the research on virtual reality is very backward, and the only advantage of deep space has been so clearly targeted, I am afraid that in the end everyone will just come and walk through the scene, and have not won any rights , Since then, there will be a large amount of patent fees to be handed over to others.

Lou Qingyan took a sip of his wine, and in the process caught a glimpse of the small employees on the table next to him from the corner of his eye.In view of the undisguised mouthful of fire from the group of people in front of them, the expressions of the young employees looked quite fragmented.

He put down his glass and said, "With me here, what are you afraid of?"

Everyone was startled.

For a boy in his twenties to say such things in such a tone to their group of three-and-forty-year-old old fritters, it is really convincing.

But, but...

The questioner was dazed for a moment, then raised his glass again and said, "I... toast you again. You can do whatever you want, I'll do it."

After that, people kept getting up and toasting Lou Qingyan alone.

Undoubtedly, everyone here is from a different company, holds different ideas and goals, and is more of a competitor than a friend on weekdays.But at this moment, in a small restaurant in New York, everyone suddenly felt an inexplicable and strange cohesion, like the strongest glue, holding them together tightly.Along with it, there is also an impulse from the bottom of my heart-wanting to do something.

Even if it's just for the emotion of the moment, I want to do my best and do something desperately.

At this time, someone suddenly heard a loud shout from the banquet:

"What did you say?! You said a canary is a fire??? You fart!"

That voice was really sonorous, powerful, and earth-shattering.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the past at the same time.

In the corner of the restaurant farthest from Lou Qingyan's table, a young man in a cultural shirt and glasses with thin hair pulled up from his seat and stared at a pair of big eyes that could not be stopped.

After realizing that everyone was looking at him, the little brother laughed twice as if he had just woken up from a dream, scratched his half-bald hair, and sat down hastily.

Everyone's eyes, slowly and hesitantly, moved to Lou Qingyan.

Lou Qingyan: "Hey, the news spread fast enough."

While talking, he glanced at the source of the news - a few small employees who were sitting on the table next to him and dared not speak.

That's right, they just missed a few words here, and within a quarter of an hour, the whole restaurant was shocked to hear the fact that Lou Qingyan = fire.

He smiled, stood up and walked to the performance area, picked up the microphone, and looked at the astonished faces below.

After thinking about it, he raised an index finger to his lips and said to everyone, "Shhh—"

After a few seconds.

Everyone: "Ahhhhhhhhh!"

Seeing this, Lou Qingyan had no choice but to cup his hands, "Everyone, Happy New Year."

February 2022, 2, the first day of the new year.

At nine o'clock in the morning, at the New York International Convention and Exhibition Center, the opening ceremony of the first openXR International Virtual Reality Standard Setting Conference was launched.

openXR was originally a standardized tool dedicated to integrating various VR engines and interfaces. Its function is similar to that of a data cable interface. It can build a bridge between two sets of VR systems that are originally far apart, making software transplantation easier.

This is an open source program set, and its purpose is to establish and promote a set of effective unified VR standards through technical means.

In addition, after five or six years of development, many fragmented standardization organizations have actually been born in the industry, and some scattered standards that few people use, but have been used as reference opinions many times.

For example, the Global Virtual Reality Association established by the six VR giants has released three technical standards for VR products for anti-vertigo considerations: the delay is less than 20ms, the refresh rate is higher than 75hz, and the gyroscope refresh rate is higher than 1000kz.

Today, under the leadership of multinational companies, these scattered small organizations and non-standard standards have been integrated into the openXR family. The latter is no longer just an open source assembly, but has become the international default virtual reality standardization group.

There are so many people who support openXR that it is empowered as a matter of course.Once this set of standards is formulated, it will be globally accepted.Companies that don't want to use it can of course choose not to use it, which also means being abandoned by the global VR market.

Therefore, even if the meeting time is set on the first day of the new year, even if you know that you have no advantage, all the invited companies in the country still come here.

Companies that come to the conference automatically become members of the openXR group, and the bureau is temporarily elected by the giants.They claim that they will launch an election at the closing ceremony of the conference, and all members will vote together to elect the official bureau members, and a new term will be held every two years.

That is to say, only the formal presidium will preside over the future meetings. As for now, they can only make do with temporary selection.

Domestic companies have hardly won a seat in the presidium, and Deep Space has gained nothing. Only in terms of the power of the presidium, they are facing a very passive situation.

The opening ceremony took up the whole morning, during which several bells and whistles of virtual reality technology were displayed to create topics for reporters to interview.This kind of technology conference always has few followers and nothing to report.

However, when the report was sent back to China, it aroused a little discussion.

"I've heard of this standard conference a long time ago. I don't know if it's just held now. I just want to say, come on deep space!"

"The form of deep space is not very good... well, I can only say one word, come on."

"In fact, there is no need to be too pessimistic. There are only three things. The opponent's methods have always been the same, but our backs are getting harder and harder. The last time we were inferior to others, but I still remember what happened last time. The ups and downs are still undecided, and the opposite party suddenly announced a 90-day extension of the ban. After the 90 days passed, another 90-day extension was announced, and then another 90-day extension was announced. Have you ever thought of a very appropriate sentence, three years later? Three years, three years after three years, almost ten years!"

"Three 90 days, a full nine months, who needs to be weighed, worried, feared, and buffered? From then on, I realized that our mainland companies can almost compete against a superpower. From that generation on, we no longer fear the so-called ban sanctions."

"Now, the same thing has happened to Deep Space again. Maybe we really don't have to be so pessimistic. We can even look forward to what kind of new situation Deep Space can create in the eye of this storm."

The meeting officially started in the afternoon. In the huge conference hall of the New York International Convention and Exhibition Center, company representatives were seated separately.

It was rare for Lou Qingyan to wear a suit and leather shoes, somehow regained the feeling of wearing a military uniform before, and unconsciously brought out a bit of momentum with his gestures.There is still a lazy smile on his face, but the smile is hidden without a trace, his eyes are calm and scrutinizing, and he seems to be able to split the wind in front of him while walking.

A reporter next to him saw him, shouted his name, and wanted to take a picture of his face.He inadvertently looked back and raised his eyes, which frightened a group of reporters into silence for a long time.

After he left, the reporters held the unintentionally taken photos that were more flavorful than magazine photos, and expressed their emotions: "It's too A! Is this person really a canary!"

The process of the conference is not complicated. The presidium asks questions and introduces candidate plans, and then all members conduct three rounds of voting, and the selected plan enters the standard. Repeat this process to get through each key point in turn.

The first problem to be solved is the port, which is divided into hardware port and program port.

The program port world has been set, no matter how various problems, how complicated and difficult to understand the plan, can not escape the framework defined by the origin, this is also a place where deep space dominates, and no one can intervene.

The plan was being presented on the stage, and Xie Jin whispered to Lou Qingyan in a low voice: "Tomorrow is the hardware port standard voting, and the program port is placed at the very end. They must want to suppress our votes, and they may use means to suppress it. I don't know what it's going to be like."

"Have we submitted a hardware port plan?"

"No, you forgot, the patent application hasn't come down yet."

"What about other domestic companies?"

"All major manufacturers have submitted proposals, but Ali and HW's technical expertise is not in this area. I am more optimistic about the proposal jointly submitted by Rice and Penguin."

Lou Qingyan flipped through the summary list in his hand, and said thoughtfully: "Look, there are those who are good at algorithms and data, some are good at communication coding, and some are good at making connections. The companies in mainland China are not inferior in technology. People, it’s just that the research reserves for VR are not enough.”

"Well, there is one more thing," Xie Jin said, "I just met Dahong's team leader, do you know what he said to me?"

"what?"

"Mr. Xie," he pretended to shake his hand, "I heard that you had a New Year's Eve dinner together last night, why didn't you invite us? We all celebrate the same festival."

Lou Qingyan tasted this sentence, and said slowly: "I almost forgot that we are not the only ones who will celebrate the New Year. Speaking of which, the most popular high-end virtual reality headsets are actually Chinese brands."

Xie Jin said: "They have an ambiguous attitude, shall we also express it?"

"When you see him again, just tell him... Even though we can't celebrate the New Year together, it's the same to celebrate the Lantern Festival together."

Xie Jin understood in seconds, "I'll talk to him more when we meet next time."

The spokesperson of the bureau went through all the major items on the one-month agenda, and then introduced the items that need to be voted on tomorrow morning.

Among all the selected proposals, most of the proposals submitted by the country were ranked in the humble corner, and the introduction did not introduce a few words.

The last project in the afternoon of the first day was the primary election of the hardware port scheme. After the primary election was completed and the votes were counted on the spot, more than half of the submitted proposals were screened out. Go the long way.

Xie Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's normal, Rice is now doing home networking, and Penguin's ambition is to connect everything, but they haven't touched hardware at all, and neither side has enough reserves for VR, no matter how you look at it, they don't have an advantage. "

"They may be better at software, but it's a pity that the program port has been completed by us." He added.

When leaving the arena, Lou Qingyan looked at a certain direction in the auditorium and thought for a moment, then said to Xie Jin: "Don't wait for the next meeting, you should find a way now to meet Dahong's team leader by chance."

"This...?" Xie Jin looked at the place where the crowd was scattered, "It's almost time to leave, maybe others have already left..."

Lou Qingyan pursed his lips, and said firmly: "I definitely didn't leave."

Seeing that Xie Jin was thinking, Jiang Fu who had been silent all this time said: "There is no need to go to 'encounter', let's sit down and wait."

So everyone in the deep space sat back again.

Everyone next to them got up and left the venue, but they stayed in place safely, and suddenly became the most prominent sight in the huge venue.

After waiting for a few minutes, a group of people came straight towards them. The leader was a young man in his 30s, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, with a kind smile on his face, and his gestures were polite.

He walked up to him and spoke with a gentle Treasure Island accent, "Mr. Fire, we finally meet. I admire you very much. Can I make a friend?"

Lou Qingyan's smile remained unchanged, and he got up to shake hands with him.

The man said: "Let me introduce myself, I, Ren Jiarong, is the team leader sent by Dahong Electronics to attend the meeting this time."

Dahong’s vive headset is the most recognized high-end VR product in the market. It occupies the PC, host and all-in-one VR markets with psVR and oculus respectively. The maturity of its products is completely unmatched by many brands.

In recent years, the VR industry has been booming. Even though it has experienced many downturns, it has not completely cooled off. Even more and more entrepreneurs and capital have been attracted in. Half of the credit should be attributed to Dahong, and the other half to FB. The company almost supports half of the VR industry with its own strength.

Because Dahong's business is more and more international-oriented, many people gradually ignore that it is actually a Chinese company.

In the evening, Dahong hosted a networking reception, and people from the two companies got together.

Ren Jiarong listened to Xie Jin's sentence "We can get together again on the Lantern Festival", and said with a smile: "Mr. Fire's demeanor is really admirable, I can't wait until the Lantern Festival."

Lou Qingyan didn't talk nonsense with him too much, "As far as I know, Dahong is one of the six major members of the Global Virtual Reality Association. The association and the openXR group announced their merger, and the leaders of the entire standard conference are your six major groups. Exclusion Isn’t the tone of deep space just what you set, and you come to me alone now, is it considered as a departure from the alliance?”

After he finished speaking, he smiled, "It doesn't seem very sensible."

Ren Jiarong said: "There is no alliance. Do what should be done and not do what should not be done. This is our keynote."

Undoubtedly, he came to seek cooperation.

If Deep Space has invested all its cash flow into the VR business and cannot afford to lose in this respect, Dahong cannot afford to lose even more.

They initially started with mobile phones and home appliances. Over the years, they have gradually given up the business of mobile phones and home appliances, and instead devoted themselves to the VR business. All their weight has been placed on the VR market. Once the VR market collapses, it is equivalent to the collapse of the entire Dahong.

This standardization conference is an ordinary opportunity for others, and it is like a lifeline for them.

It is difficult for mainland companies participating in this meeting to submit promising proposals, and even if they submit, they may be deliberately suppressed, as if they are just going through the motions.

But many people forget that they also have the right to vote.

A dozen or so votes is nothing, but if in a battle that was originally divided, suddenly a dozen or so neutral votes confirm a clear tendency, it will have a great impact on the entire situation.

Dahong made a very bold decision to win over the dozen or so tickets at the risk of offending other partners.

When thinking about the plan, Ren Jiarong found that other companies are relatively easy to deal with, and can be done through commercial operations or negotiations. The big deal is to give up more benefits. Only Deep Space does not take soft and hard. From top to bottom, everything is done according to mood. Fire, who personally leads the team, is a model of doing things based on mood.

Ren Jiarong had no choice but to try his best to insinuate, trying to find some kind of plan to pry open the gap in deep space.

After hearing what he said, Lou Qingyan said, "Have Mr. Ren ever thought that if Shenkong decided to support your company, it would be tantamount to giving up the rights and interests that it could have fought for itself. Perhaps what Shenkong needs is votes, not voting for others in exchange for profit."

Ren Jiarong hesitated for a while.

Seeing Lou Qingyan being blunt, he said bluntly: "Don't tell me you haven't given up yet? Of course Deep Space can win the votes, but if there are no more supporters, these dozen or so votes are just a drop in the bucket and will be of no avail."

"Mr. Fire, you are very powerful and have created many miracles. It is a pity that you have been a little impatient along the way. If you can wait for another two years, you will only owe Dongfeng when everything is ready. Everything that needs to be prepared is ready before you come up with special effects. Plug-ins, come up with new graphics, Zhuang Zhou chips, and double-layer panel technology, then I think, when the patent is in hand, no one will be able to touch you."

"I admit that there is an element aimed at deep space in this conference, which was set by the Western world and has nothing to do with Dahong. I can see the real skill behind their move - there is no time to bully you."

"There is no time, no patents, and you haven't grown into a giant that can block out the sun. This is the only thing that is lacking in deep space. Before the time comes, even if you don't want to, you can only stay dormant for a while. Instead of being depressed and dormant, it's better Join hands with us and let Chinese standards sweep the world."

He looked directly into Lou Qingyan's eyes, "Mr. Fire, Dahong Electronics, is the only company in this conference that is truly capable of promoting Chinese VR standards to the world."

Lou Qingyan didn't accept his emotional card, and said indifferently: "It's always you who are trying to persuade me to be as good as I can be, and to be a man with my tail between my wings before my wings are full."

"That's not what I said," Ren Jiarong hurriedly explained, "This is called strategy..."

"Mr. Ren," Lou Qingyan said suddenly, "Do you know what the advertising slogan for Deep Space is?"

Ren Jiarong didn't pick up the words for a while.

Lou Qingyan raised his wine glass, and through the light golden liquid, he saw Jiang Fu who was talking with someone in another corner.Jiang Fu's expression seems to be richer only when facing him, and as long as he leaves his side, he will always be indifferent and calm.

He looked in that direction, and casually said to Ren Jiarong: "If you don't know, you can go back and look it up. I thought about it, and it seems that DayDream is the only one that lacks a slogan. What should I call it?"

Ren Jiarong didn't understand his brain circuit, why did the topic suddenly turn to advertisements? ?

He was thinking about it, but he heard Lou Qingyan reply abruptly: "Okay, I promise you."

"What did you say?" Lou Qingyan's words were too jumpy, he couldn't help asking again.

"The vote for the deep space will go to Dahong." Lou Qingyan smiled, "We have made our choice, Mr. Ren, and one day, you will also make your own choice. I hope that when the time comes, your The answer will be the one I want to see."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left, holding the wine glass to look for Jiang Fu, without saying goodbye, just waved his hand.

It's done.However, Ren Jiarong looked at his back and pondered over his words, but couldn't figure it out.

On the second day, the second round of voting for the hardware port plan ended, and the files were sealed up. After the second round of voting for all projects was over, the third round of voting was unified.

Among the remaining three plans, the one strongly promoted by Dahong was the one.

Almost all of Dahong's port technology is deployed around this solution. As long as it enters the standard, Dahong can submit a series of patents, not only gaining technological sovereignty, but also enjoying a large patent fee.

It is worth mentioning that in the distribution of votes, there is no obvious consistent tendency among mainland enterprises. I don't know whether Dahong has not yet settled down other companies, or it is doing so deliberately to avoid attracting attention.

Other domestic companies still have no chance to stand out, and the proposals submitted are just like the competition of the Chinese diving dream team. There is no splash, and it is over in a jiffy.

Therefore, the reports sent back to China by various media did not make much publicity, only a few technical media briefly mentioned it, and the online media quietly found a small corner in the corner of the website to hang up the headlines, and the paper media did not even report it—who would want it? See news like "Mainland companies crashed into the sand at an international conference"?

The number of journalists accompanying the conference has also decreased significantly. This is a boring, boring, and purely technical conference. It is so boring that even a fire can't cause an accident. What else can we report?

Only those who really care about the fire and VR industry have noticed this phenomenon.

"Could it be that this time, even the fire is silent?"

"From being included in the Entity List, to being targeted by the standards conference, to being banned from export by one company after another, deep space is so happy to engage in artificial intelligence, why is it so frustrating to engage in VR?"

"Yeah, I'm so aggrieved. Even if I really can't do anything, I still have an attitude, but I haven't said a word until now. Could it be that I really succumbed to such unfair treatment? I am not convinced for Deep Space."

"I still remember the way Zhuangzi in white made the world amazed. I still remember the fish, the butterfly, and the bird soaring into the sky. I don't think it will end here..."

The bystanders don't know that under the boring voting work during the day, there are countless secret and undeclared interests in the night.

Those who seem to have not made their mark are not necessarily without gains.Even companies that cannot contribute technical standards can always find opportunities to make the most of their votes.

What's more, is there really no chance at all?When it comes to subsequent voting data and algorithm standards, Ali, who holds the largest VR shopping project in history, will definitely contribute a heavyweight technical solution that cannot be ignored.When it comes to cloud VR communication transmission and edge computing deployment solutions, HW will not be outdone.Just like what Lou Qingyan said, Chinese technology has never been weaker than others, it just lacks a little preparation.

The port is a big project, and the voting took place for five full days. During this period, there were always boring meeting voting and voting meetings, and the two went back and forth.

Lou Qingyan couldn't stand this the most.Although the month of retreat in the laboratory was extremely busy, at least the things I did were very fulfilling.I'm not busy now, I just sit in the conference hall every day, and I feel that time passes really slowly.

From the third day on, he just pretended to sleep there with his arms propped up, and let Jiang Fu do all the discussions, debates, and quarrels.

After all the second rounds of voting for the hardware interface item have been completed, the meeting will be suspended for one day.

There is no voting on this day and it is used for communication and relaxation.There is a gala dinner in the evening and technical salons and exhibitions during the day.

Early in the morning, everyone came to another area of ​​the convention and exhibition center. There is no conference hall here, only a huge exhibition space and many small lecture halls.

Both the exhibition venue and the lecture hall are voluntary applications and free publicity. This is also an important part of demonstrating technology and canvassing votes. No one wants to miss it. The venue is very lively.

Lou Qingyan led a group of people into the exhibition hall, and saw Ren Jiarong head-on.Dahong was in the limelight in the second round of voting for hardware ports, and several of the proposals submitted were called "seed proposals", and the patent reserves displayed subsequently were even more ambitious.

Ren Jiarong's canvassing strategy was very successful. It can be seen that the walking is already windy, although the smiling face is still gentle.

"Mr. fire, you are here too," his Baodao accent is not at all contrived, and the slight coquettishness is very comfortable to listen to. "Would you like to come to our exhibition area to have a look? By the way, Dahong's technical expert Jiu There is a speech in Hall 2 at one o'clock, why don't we communicate with each other?"

"Nine o'clock?" Lou Qingyan looked at his watch, "Coincidentally, there is also a speech in deep space at nine o'clock, and we are in Hall 1."

"That's such a coincidence." Ren Jiarong looked surprised. After thinking for a while, he couldn't think of a topic to talk about in the deep space. "It's a pity that I have to take care of Hall 2, so I can't go there."

"It's a pity," Lou Qingyan said, "Shen Kong's speech is recorded live, and you can listen to it again from the beginning at any time."

Ren Jiarong always felt that these words were a bit strange, as if he would definitely go to this speech in the future.

At this moment, Lou Qingyan's cell phone rang suddenly, and he waved to Ren Jiarong for a gesture, and picked up the phone.

After listening to a few words, his expression became weird, and then became more and more weird, and finally settled into a slightly surprised and ridiculous expression.

"Subpoena?" He spat out two words and rubbed the center of his brows, as if he was a little helpless.

He said a few more words over there, and he said helplessly: "I know, I know, you can reply for me, I really can't go back. I know, you just let him torment, and you see what he can come up with. I I thought his matter was over long ago, and it's too fucking worrying." He swears in a rare way.

Jiang Fu realized that something was wrong, and when he hung up the phone, he immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

Lou Qingyan said: "Lou Dayuan sued me."

These seven words were a bit shocking, and as soon as they fell, the group of people who were chattering and questioning were smashed into silence.

After a while, Ren Jiarong was the first to react, "The report is about to start, I'm going to see the venue, you guys chat slowly, and see you at the evening wine." After speaking, he slipped away immediately.

Jiang Fu frowned and said, "What's going on?"

"Xia Huai called. Lou Dayuan sued Lou Qingyan for infringing his right of reputation. It is said that the court is about to start." Lou Qingyan was a little tired. Just call the company and find someone."

Before they came to New York, they didn't go home for four or five days. They slept directly in the company lounge at night, and they went home to pick up their luggage the day before departure.The courier and letters were all collected by housekeeping, and they were placed in a corner of the entrance, and they were not opened in time, so they missed the summons.

"Fuck." Xie Jin also swears once in a while.

"Infringement on the right of reputation?" Jiang Fu's face darkened, "Where did he come to this conclusion, why did the court accept it?"

Lou Qingyan shook his head, "I'll tell you later, let's get down to business first, let's go to the lecture hall."

"What is the real business, Boss!" Shen Le said hurriedly, "Why don't you go back to China to deal with it first, we have Mr. Xie and Mr. Jiang here, so we can handle it."

"Family disputes or setting international standards, which one do you think is the real thing?" Lou Qingyan patted his arm, "Why panic, we will do what we need to do, and don't care about what is there or not."

After entering the lecture hall, under the urging of his gaze, several people had no choice but to obediently prepare for work.

Jiang Fu pulled Lou Qingyan to sit down in the corner of the back row of the lecture hall, and touched his cheek: "Aren't you going back?"

Lou Qingyan shook his head, "It's too troublesome, let Xia Huai help me hire a lawyer."

"This incident came too suddenly," Jiang Fu's eyes gradually darkened, "What reason did he use to file a lawsuit on the right of reputation?"

Lou Qingyan sneered and said, "Accusing me of falsifying recordings and using the Internet trolls to slander him as a rapist, isn't he afraid of being certified as a rapist in court? I'm quite curious, if the court really finds evidence to prove that he is a rapist. He committed rape, should he be arrested, or should he not be arrested?"

Jiang Fu looked at him and said softly, "The recording is fake, isn't it?"

Lou Qingyan paused and turned his head away.

Jiang Fu held his face and turned him back, "Will he be discovered?"

Seeing his persistence, Lou Qingyan had no choice but to say: "No matter how many experts are hired and what technical means are used to identify the sound generated from the binary coding level, it will only be identified as 100% authentic. I won't say anything about the technology of forging recordings. No one will be able to invent it, even if there is a strong artificial intelligence in the future, they will not be able to do it."

"I'm afraid this case is very embarrassing," Jiang Fu thought, "neither can it prove that the recording is fake, nor can it prove that Lou Dayuan is really a rapist. The lawyer should focus on making the recording true, insisting that you Just publish the evidence..."

Lou Qingyan looked at him strangely, "You have already started to worry about the lawyer."

After Jiang Fu wanted to understand the whole thing, he let go of half of his heart when he raised it. Hearing this, he knocked his head lightly, "As long as you are willing to use normal means to do things, I don't have to worry about anything."

"What is a normal means? I don't know. Maybe I'm destined not to be a good person in this life." Lou Qingyan said calmly, "But I always thought that you were the kind of standard good person, like Liang Yanchu. There is righteousness, there is anger of injustice, there is almost pedantic... no, it should not be called pedantic, there is almost naive persistence."

Jiang Fu suddenly looked up at him.

"If I say boldly: How do you know I'm not that kind of person?"

Lou Qingyan was taken aback.

After a while, Jiang Fu smiled and kissed the corner of his mouth, "Let's go, get down to business."

He stood up, turned his head and waved at Lou Qingyan, "Let's go..."

Lou Qingyan suddenly jumped on his back, hugged his shoulders, and refused to touch the ground with both feet.

Jiang Fu smiled and said, "What are you doing?" He had no choice but to bend down and lift him up, allowing his feet to float high as he wished.

Lou Qingyan kissed his ear, and whispered in his ear: "I am willing to be a good person so that you don't have to worry about anything, I am willing."

With just this one sentence, Jiang Fu couldn't move forward.

"I thought about it. The cost of being a good person is nothing more than using your brain and working hard. The cost of being a good person is too low for me. It is much lower than all the people in this world who are struggling to be a good person. ..."
