Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 52: You Must Have Confidence

Qin Lan talked for a long time, until her mouth was dry, and even picked up the tea on the table to gulp down a big sip, then she concluded, "As you can see, you really attract too much attention from girls."

After saying this, she looked eagerly at Ai Xin’Er.

Sister Xin’Er is so smart, she must understand what I mean, right?

But why is Sister Xin’Er looking at me like that?

"Xiaolanzi." Ai Xin’Er reached out to touch Qin Lan’s hair and sighed, "You should listen to me more in the future; I’ll continue to help you."

Without her gatekeeping, with this girl’s intelligence, she might get swindled and not even know.

Qin Lan nodded dumbly, then looked at Shen Shi.

Although she didn’t know why, it seemed like the whole lot she said was in vain.

But she wasn’t wrong.

The reason why it’s said that men with too much money are unreliable is because there are too many temptations; how many men can resist that? This is what Sister Xin’Er told her; if it weren’t for Sister Xin’Er, she nearly got played by a scumbag in her first year!

"Hey, Young Master Shen!" Qin Lan emphasized the word "young" and said, "Are you also a senior? Have you decided what you want to do after graduation?"

Since going after attracting attention didn’t work, Qin Lan decided to take another angle.

She knew Ai Xin’Er liked men who were capable and career-minded.

Men who have capability, ambition, and a vision of the world are the most charming!

This was Ai Xin’Er’s own words.

As you can see.

She’s never going to like some rich second generation who only knows how to spend money!

As soon as she asked this, even Ai Xin’Er couldn’t help but look at Shen Shi.

Last time at dinner, Shen Shi mentioned he was preparing to start a business, but she didn’t ask more at the time. However, not asking didn’t mean she wasn’t interested.

"Start a company, I guess." Shen Shi replied with a smile.

"What kind of company?" Qing Lan asked eagerly.

"A technology company, I suppose." This time, Shen Shi didn’t avoid the topic.

In fact, just a few minutes ago, Tao De and Liang Xin had already entered the restaurant.

But they didn’t head over here.

They sat at a distance of several tables away, out of sight and earshot, ordering food.

This was Liang Xin’s idea.

He believed Shen Shi could notice them and undoubtedly knew why they were here, but they wouldn’t disturb Shen Shi’s meal or show themselves too much, which meant that when to make contact or even what to discuss after contact was entirely up to Shen Shi to decide.

It was indeed a gesture unlikely to offend Shen Shi.

"A tech company? That’s a broad direction, but it’s not easy to run a tech company." Qin Lan was still trying to find faults with Shen Shi, "It’s not an era where having money and just poaching talents can get a tech company running. Most of the tech market has already established tight patent barriers."

"Oh, you even know about patent barriers?" Shen Shi looked at her with interest.

"Of course!" Qin Lan noticed that Ai Xin’Er seemed quite interested in the topic, and she got more excited, putting on a serious face, "Take short videos, for example. Everyone knows the most crucial technology in short videos is the algorithm, but the leading short video giants have already patented their core algorithms, making it immensely difficult for newcomers to research without circumventing their patents. This situation is prevalent across other tech fields, from software to hardware, and even our entire country sometimes gets stuck due to patents."

She said all this just to express one point. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Tech companies are hard to run!

Unless it’s in some small niche or a tiny company, having money doesn’t mean much. But just settling for small companies or niches definitely won’t impress Sister Xin’Er!

"Xin’Er." Shen Shi interlocked his fingers and placed them under his chin, striking a classic pose, "Do you think the same way?"

"Maybe tech companies are indeed challenging; I’m not that knowledgeable." Ai Xin’Er gazed at him, smiling gently, "But I know you; you’re not someone who takes risks lightly, right? So I believe you surely have confidence!"

The last sentence was said decisively.

Whether it was meant for Shen Shi or her true thoughts.

Her confidence and support for Shen Shi were indeed conveyed.

Moreover—

Shen Shi chuckled; his current Primordial Energy Mastery might not yet be enough to easily influence others, but judging the sincerity of ordinary people’s words was still achievable.

"You’re right, I am that cautious type, or you can call it timid." He chuckled softly, "So, yes, I do have confidence."

"Everyone who starts a company has some confidence, but how many truly succeed." Qin Lan muttered quietly, "Unless the ’I’m Back’ event from three days ago was masterminded by you, now that skill would be terrifying."

The ’I’m Back’ event from three days ago still held significant attention.

Until now, no reasonable explanation was available.

Only various speculations, each more outrageous than the last.

There even appeared a novel like ’The Immortal Returns and Declares to the World, I’m Back’.

Of course, in the Eastern Country, more people believed it was a form of powerful information technology; it was mostly in the Western Alliance and Nia Empire where this event became a carnival for alien enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists.

You could only say... those people really guessed right this time.

"So, which specific domain do you intend to focus on? Software or hardware? Have you managed to recruit anyone yet? Most talents are concentrated in large companies now, and talent is a tech company’s greatest wealth and confidence."

Shen Shi didn’t say much to Qin Lan, but Qin Lan seemed to take his silence as insecurity, becoming even more vigorous in her speech, expressing her skepticism about Shen Shi entering the tech field.

But she clearly hadn’t realized the increasingly dangerous look Sister Xin’Er was casting her.

When the steaming hot crab pot was served, Ai Xin’Er directly handed her the largest crab.

"Eat your food, talk less!"

"I wasn’t wrong, it is difficult after all." Qin Lan’s voice gradually lessened until she had no choice but to bow her head and engage with the crab in her bowl under Ai Xin’Er’s strong gaze.

"Never mind this girl, what does she know." Ai Xin’Er turned her head and gave Shen Shi an apologetic glance.

Shen Shi smiled, obviously unconcerned.

"Didn’t you say you have two friends coming over?" Ai Xin’Er thought of something and asked, "So, if we just start eating now, would that be bad?"
