The host announced that the summit was about to begin, and Xia quickly came to sit next to Pei Yuchi. The metal watch in her hand flashed under the light, seeming to indicate her unconcealable nervousness.
"Teacher Pei, you are so handsome today, and you immediately captured the attention of everyone present." Siya teased with a smile.
Pei Yuchi ignored her teasing, and just asked warmly: "Are you ready?"
Shia's smile froze, she rubbed her wrist, and smiled a little. She hesitated for a moment before speaking: "I thought I was fully prepared, but seeing so many industry authorities here, and investor representatives observing, I was still a little nervous." Her hands were trembling slightly, and her eyes were a little nervous. Appearing flustered.
Pei Yuchi saw through her uneasiness, but said calmly: "Don't think too much, just focus on yourself. You can do it."
"But I'm the first If you don't perform well on the field, wouldn't you be disloyal to the organizer's trust..." Shia clasped her hands together, her knuckles turned white and it hurt.
She lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and the arc of her Adam's apple sliding up and down could be vaguely seen on her white neck.
Pei Yu belatedly saw Xiya's brows furrowed, her beautiful eyes full of worry, her hands cold and bloodless, and he couldn't help feeling pity.
Pei Yuchi suddenly turned his side-sitting figure towards her and stared at her trembling hands. He paused for a moment, hesitated to speak, his eyes softened, as if he was hesitating...
At this time, Pei Yuchi stretched out his right hand, first brushed the back of her cold hand, and then held it gently , press a few times until she slowly stopped rubbing, warm and powerful...
"Take a deep breath! Believe in yourself!" He said calmly and firmly.
Pei Yuchi's palm was generous and completely wrapped Xia's petite hand in it. The warmth from the palm of her hand spread through her skin, and Xia's heart moved, as if there had been a tacit understanding for thousands of times before, and she felt that this person had a natural closeness to her.
Shia caught a glimpse of Pei Yuchi's pearl cufflinks, which glowed warmly in the light. This little glow passed to her heart, giving her an inexplicable sense of calmness and comfort. Her expression gradually relaxed from the tension.
Shia raised her eyes and met his eyes as warm as the sea, her eyes moved slightly. She took a deep breath and said softly: "Thank you, Teacher Pei."
Shia held his generous palm with her backhand, interlaced her fingers, and felt the strong warmth of the other person. She pressed lightly on his hand, seeming to draw enough strength. Then his eyes swept across Pei Yuchi's face, and finally moved to the stage, whispering to himself: "Come on!"
At this moment, the backstage staff came over to remind Shia to prepare for the stage.
"Then I'll go backstage to prepare first." Xia stood up, hesitated for a moment, then turned back, and said softly to Pei Yuchi: "Thank you for coming to support me!"
Her fingers inadvertently touched the necklace, the diamond pendantShines dazzlingly under the light.
"Come on." Pei Yuchi responded softly, his eyes like water, warm and deep.
Sia nodded, pursed her lips, turned and left her seat. Her back still showed a little nervousness, but also exuded a vague aura of confidence.
Both of them vaguely sensed that there seemed to be a subtle and shy affection between each other. This feeling was very fresh and shocking...
The host announced the opening , Xia's personal profile suddenly appeared on the big screen, and there was a small discussion in the venue. Unexpectedly, the young female expert would be the first to give a speech.
Pei Yuchi remained unmoved. He was convinced that Xia would prove herself with her strength.
I saw Sia walking slowly from the backstage to the main podium. Her strong and calm aura rippled around her, and she captured the attention of the audience in an instant. She stood in the center, smiled elegantly, and instantly grabbed everyone's attention.
The discussion in the audience gradually subsided, and everyone was impressed by Xia's foresight and unique insight into the industry.
Her in-depth analysis of the cutting-edge technologies and development trends of artificial intelligence dispelled everyone’s preconceived doubts and proved her strong ability as an expert.
At this moment, the wisdom and charm of her speech completely controlled the stage, making all the experts present look at her with admiration.
On the podium, Siya sometimes frowned in thought, and sometimes her eyes were full of passion.
She first systematically sorted out the historical context of the development of artificial intelligence, and then focused on current hot areas such as deep learning and reinforcement learning, explaining theoretical models and algorithm innovations, coupled with specific data analysis cases, to let the audience Experts are refreshed.
When she talked about the ethical regulations of artificial intelligence, her tone was more solemn and serious. She pointed out potential risks such as algorithmic discrimination and data privacy, and advocated adhering to humanistic values in technological innovation and making artificial intelligence a tool for the benefit of mankind. These remarks made the experts in the audience nod frequently.
Pei Yuchi, who was sitting in the front row, stared intently at Xia. Her calm and sharp words made him unable to take his eyes away. When the two people's eyes met, a trace of pride flashed in Pei Yuchi's eyes. He nodded slightly, his eyes full of appreciation and recognition.
"Artificial intelligence cannot be without humanistic care." Shia's speech was even more sincere at the climax. She solemnly said, "The development of technology must be based on human nature, otherwise, it will only Will become the destroyer of mankind." The technological ethics and humanism she advocates are the concepts that Pei Yuchi has always believed in and admired.
When Siya finished her speech, the audience burst into warm applause. She was startled for a moment, then lowered her head shyly, with a small smile on her lips.
Pei Yuchi looked at Xia. Her eyes were still shining with the excitement after the speech, and her whole person looked particularly moving. Her insights and responses far exceeded Pei Yuchi's imagination, allowing him toFeeling pleasantly surprised.
Sia was at ease on stage, answering questions with ease and ease, showing sharpness and competence. She exudes a charming aura that is determined to win, and controls the attention of the audience.
Her eyes passed over Pei Yuchi, and their eyes met. Pei Yuchi's eyes were full of admiration and joy.
As the applause from the audience gradually subsided, Xia slowly walked down from the podium and returned to sit next to Pei Yuchi. She turned her head and looked at him with a little expectation in her eyes, as if asking for his opinion.
Pei Yuchi raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly. Shia immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled like a flower. "You were very good just now." Pei Yuchi praised briefly.
Shia clasped her hands together and said softly: "Thanks to your previous encouragement, which gave me a lot of confidence." She raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes filled with gratitude.
She lowered her head and stroked her bun, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I was worried before that speaking in front of so many experts would seem a bit ignorant..."

"Your expertise and insights have conquered everyone." Pei Yuchi said firmly, "Being young does not mean that you are not sophisticated in the world. Those who can stand the test are the most persuasive."
Xiya smiled slightly when she heard the words, the corners of her mouth raised, and her eyes lit up with joy. She nodded shyly, lowered her head and bit her lower lip. Pei Yuchi's high recognition made her happy beyond words.
Just when Xia was secretly proud of Pei Yuchi's praise, she suddenly remembered the most important purpose of her trip, which was to confirm the venture capital company's investment intention. The speech has been successfully concluded, and now is the time to observe the other party's reaction and ask for the results.
Shia couldn’t wait to move her gaze in the direction of the venture capital representative, hoping to judge the investment attitude from the other person’s expression. She looked over Pei Yuchi's shoulder and quickly scanned the entire venue. Suddenly her expression froze...
Pei Yuchi noticed something was wrong with her, and turned around to look around...
Shia frowned, and she put down what she had just picked up. Cup of tea, hands clasped in lap. The venture capital firm representative’s original seat was found to be empty.
Her eyes anxiously searched the venue, but could not find the venture capital representative.
"What's wrong?" Pei Yuchi asked with concern.
Xiya's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the representative was dissatisfied with her speech and had given up the idea of investing in Taihao? This possible outcome is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Taihao Technology.
Shia didn't have time to think too much. She said hastily to Pei Yu, "I'll go out for a while" and chased him out without hesitation. She had to find a way to confirm the true attitude of the venture capitalist in person, and she couldn't let this opportunity slip away like this.
Shia looked eagerly outside the venue, trying to search for the figure of the venture capital representative who left without saying goodbye, but there was no trace of him among the crowds coming and going around.
Just when she was panicking, a black business car quietly stopped in front of her. The car window rolled down, and it was the missing venture capital company representative.
"Dr. Shia, please get in the car. Let's talk in detail in another place." His mysterious expression made Shia both nervous and expectant, and an unknown premonition filled her heart.
Shia's heart suddenly tightened. Could it be that the representative was dissatisfied with her plan after listening to her speech, or was there something else hidden? This sudden change left her at a loss.
Shia hesitated to get on the bus and asked quickly: "Excuse me, where are we going?"
The representative smiled unreadably and explained: "Dr. Shia, our investment decision The manager has more ideas about the cooperation between the two parties. He wants to meet with you in person to discuss cooperation in depth. Do you want to go with me to meet today? However, the location is a little far away. If it is more convenient, we'd better take the same ride. A car passed by, I hope you can forgive me."
The representative's words seemed to be true and false, which made Xiya wary. But for such a rare opportunity for cooperation, she readily agreed to go, even though the journey was far away.
She couldn't wait to open the door and get into the representative's car. The representative's strong cologne smell instantly lingered in the car, making her feel even more uncomfortable.
The vehicle drove toward the suburbs, and the representative’s expression was unpredictable, making Shia uncertain. She tried hard to maintain a polite smile, but she was troubled and anxious inside.
The scenery outside the car window receded rapidly, and she felt unprecedentedly nervous and uneasy. The scenery outside the car window changes from the city center to the suburbs and then to a dense forest.
The representative seemed to notice Sia's uneasiness and suddenly said: "Don't worry, I just asked you to meet our decision-maker, so I changed to a quiet place."
Shia reluctantly suppressed the doubts in her heart with these words, but there was still a trace of uneasiness lingering in her heart. I wonder what awaits ahead. Who is the “decision-maker” mentioned by the representative? A trace of uneasiness spread in her heart, making her inexplicably nervous...
As soon as Xia got in the car, she sent a text message to Pei Yuchi, briefly informing him that he was going to meet investors. , heading towards the suburbs and apologizing for his hasty departure.
...
Sia hurriedly said "I'm going out for a while" and left her seat. Pei Yuchi watched her hurriedly leaving figure, unsure of what was going on. I felt that Xia's behavior was abnormal, as if there was an emergency.
Pei Yuchi really couldn't concentrate on the next speech.
He was sitting in the venue, still maintaining a calm and calm demeanor on the surface, listening to the report of the speaker on the stage. His fingers tapped on the table unconsciously, and his eyes glanced outside the door from time to time.
The voices on the stage reached his ears, but he couldn't hear a word. His mind was filled with the image of Shia alone outside.
He tried not to look anxious. butHe couldn't help but glanced outside the door again, wondering why Siya hadn't come back yet. This worry seems to have gone beyond the concerns between ordinary friends.
He even began to regret why he didn't go out with her. If she encountered any danger, he would be unable to help her... Pei Yuchi shook his head and waited eagerly.
At this time, the screen of the phone came on. Pei Yuchi picked it up and saw that it was a message from Xia, saying that he was going to meet investors or in the suburbs... The moment he saw this message, Pei Yuchi Chi Zhi felt flustered, and all the previous worries suddenly came true.
Pei Yuchi's fingers jumped rapidly on the screen and replied to Xia: "You are going to meet an investor? Are you familiar with this investor before? Is his background reliable? In any case, please You must pay attention to safety and contact me immediately if there is any abnormality." He sounded concerned and repeatedly reminded her to pay attention to safety and not to take it lightly.
After a while, Shia's reply came: "This is the second time I met this investor representative. He asked me to go over and have a detailed discussion and meet with the decision-maker. There should be no problem. Please don't worry. , I will be careful."
Xia's reply could not dispel Pei Yuchi's doubts, and he felt that something was fishy. The place she went to was remote, and there was no way to determine whether the other party was reliable. All the signs made him shudder.
Pei Yuchi asked Xia about her specific destination, trying to pinpoint the location, but was unable to get a reply. His heart beat faster and faster.
Pei Yuchi could no longer sit still. With a serious face, he stood up and strode out of the venue. Others looked sideways, but he ignored them and walked directly to the hall outside and began to pace back and forth anxiously.
While he quickly dialed Sia's phone number, he calculated her approximate driving route and time in his mind. The phone gave a busy tone again and could not be connected.
Pei Yuchi's heart was in his throat, worry almost written all over his face. He frowned and paced back and forth in the hall, like a helpless trapped animal. Even if passers-by cast inquiring glances, he didn't care at all.
Why didn’t Sia answer the phone? Is the signal poor in the suburbs? Or have you already encountered danger? Various possibilities passed through Pei Yuchi's mind, making his heart heavy.
