When a person changes their established image, the stereotypes associated with that image also weaken.
Her well-fitting attire alone made most of the undemanding people in the meeting room feel much more comfortable.
Not to mention the composed and unyielding expression on Luan Yenan's face, which made the people present for a moment wonder if the person they were seeing now was the same person who had betrayed them before.
Luan Muyin walked behind Luan Yenan, as Luan Yenan had requested, and she had agreed.
Upon entering, she got straight to the point and said to everyone, "Ye Nan has already reviewed the documents we provided. She asked me for fifteen minutes to give her presentation and has provided us with a PowerPoint presentation."
Everyone was slightly taken aback.
Even the last trace of hostility turned into confusion.
The transaction requirements were just discussed last night, and I showed the documents to Luan Yenan this morning. Now I have a PPT that I can present?
Are you kidding me?
But Luan Yenan just happened to be there, with the projector on and everyone watching, and logged into a website.
After opening the website and logging in with my account and password, a large number of folders appeared on the webpage.
The folder's naming convention was encrypted by Luan Yenan.
But the moment she opened the folder and downloaded a PPT from the webpage to her computer...
Everyone in the conference room immediately began brainstorming.
They clearly realized that Luan Yenan might have something even more powerful besides the "blockchain" technology related to "blockcoins".
Even things that had appeared in their minds but had not yet taken shape.
While the PPT was still downloading, Luan Yenan glanced up at the people in the conference room whose pupils were in shock, and smiled.
Great, that's the effect she wanted.
It's far more effective to let these intelligent people realize the technology themselves than to force them to understand it.
Zuo Baixuan followed Luan Muyin to sit down at the conference table.
She hadn't expected that Luan Yenan hadn't brought any storage devices like USB drives or hard drives, and had arrived at the conference room empty-handed, yet conjured up a PowerPoint presentation out of thin air using just a webpage.
In that instant, several lines of code flashed through her mind, tasks from her sugar daddy.
The functions corresponding to those tasks made Zuo Baixuan frown as she looked at the projector, and she recalled the documents that Luan Yenan had handed her that morning.
The content provided in the document is not complicated; it is a publicly disclosed research project in the "front-end" field.
"Frontend" is a company whose main business is software development, and its biggest projects in recent years have been management software for enterprises and government departments.
They even hope to provide these large and medium-sized enterprises with an internal system that can coordinate customer relationship management, human resource management, database management, and so on.
The released promotional materials claim that the software will also have integrated functions such as internal chat, calls, video conferencing, and online office work.
However, the "front-end" has been stuck in the integration process. They have no problem developing software with individual functions, and their cooperation with major enterprises and governments has been deepening in recent years. However, their wish to integrate them into a single software and platform has been delayed.
The main reason is that many large enterprises have a huge amount of computing data, but their local data center computing power is insufficient to support it. Increasing the computing power of the data center means a large cost investment, and no enterprise would want such advice.
If the "front-end" wants to gain wider cooperation with enterprises, it must solve the problems of enterprise data storage and computing.
During this period, they saw the potential of "blockchain" in data storage.
However, at this moment, Luan Yenan on the stage directly reversed their thinking: "Most governments and enterprises, especially governments, should value the latter more than the former, which is to 'use software functions to provide convenience' and 'have everything in their own hands'. Therefore, decentralized blockchain is not suitable. I would like to recommend another technology - cloud computing [1]."
Compared to the decentralization of "blockchain", "cloud computing" is a centralized management system through a centralized controller.
"Hiss—" Just hearing this name, so many smart minds in the conference room suddenly felt like they had been awakened.
Luan Yenan gradually presented the PPT.
She was certain of this the moment Luan Yenan confirmed the level of information technology in this world.
The four new driving forces of the Internet—cloud computing, the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence—have not yet fully taken root in the world, and some are only in their infancy.
Take information storage methods as an example; the most basic USB flash drives, hard drives, and even optical discs are still used here.
Therefore, during this period, she has collaborated with "Universal" to implement the online cloud storage technology.
Presenting it to these smart people in the form of a downloadable PPT was certainly tempting enough.
Not to mention that this "front-end" project fits the concept of "enterprise cloud" so well; these smart people and the new era are only separated by "cloud computing" technology.
In a short 15-minute PPT presentation, Luan Yenan explained the principles and benefits of cloud computing, and even described the specific operations of applying cloud computing to the "front-end" project without notes.
Even Luan Muyin was dumbfounded, looking at Luan Yenan and beginning to doubt whether this brat was really the same char siu from before.
When presenting a PPT, the presentation should be clear, concise, and engaging.
He won over all the high-ranking officials.
Several high-ranking officials who still harbor resentment towards Luan Yennan for betraying them have even begun to reflect on whether their previous projects were so terrible that Luan Yennan rejected them and sold them off.
After Luan Yenan finished presenting the PPT, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Luan Muyin.
While the Alpha mother was still wondering whether the daughter in front of her was real or fake, he grasped her hand and said earnestly, "Hello, Mr. Luan, I am the person in charge of 'Yituan E-commerce Co., Ltd.' Our company can provide you with sufficient cloud computing power. Please feel free to contact us if you have any cooperation needs."
"..." Luan Muyin's hand hovered in mid-air, somewhat dumbfounded.
The others were also dumbfounded. Looking at the mother and daughter, they knew that this was not a play they had planned in advance, but rather a one-sided performance by Luan Yenan.
Zuo Baixuan sat to the side, lost in thought.
Luan Yenan didn't give her much time to think. He took her hand and said, "Let's go, wife, back to school. Didn't we agree to practice a dance to amaze everyone?"
"Huh?" Zuo Baixuan had already been pulled up by Luan Yenan when she remembered his joke from yesterday. "When did I agree to practice dancing with you?"
"Isn't practicing dancing good? I've even borrowed a training room from the school. Come on, let's dance together." Luan Yennan pulled Zuo Baixuan out, leaving a bunch of "smart people" in the conference room dumbfounded.
Zuo Baixuan's gaze swept over the rather dim-witted expressions of these people. She couldn't help but find it amusing, and from it, she understood Luan Yenan's sense of humor.
Leaving aside other details for now, just looking at the dashing Luan Yenan at this moment, her figure and her current expression, she would definitely look beautiful if she danced.
"If you show me how to dance first, I might consider it."
"Then let's go." Luan Yenan didn't give Zuo Baixuan a chance to react and pulled her hard.
Zuo Baixuan twirled around in the corridor, like a magnificent waltz.
Why has this crazy woman suddenly gone mad again?
But it's so interesting.
I must be going crazy!
Zuo Baixuan stared into Luan Yenan's eyes, a somewhat crazed smile creeping across her face.
Luan Yenan wrapped one arm around Zuo Baixuan's waist, a perfect smile curving his lips, and pulled her dance partner into the newly opened employee elevator without a care in the world.

Chapter 42
The meeting room was silent.
None of the high-ranking officials sitting in the room at this moment were people that Luan Lizheng had originally assigned. They were all technicians who had diligently climbed up the ranks by following Luan Muyin.
They may not be as cunning as the few controlling shareholders left behind by Luan Lizheng, but their intelligence and influence are definitely not low.
They stared blankly at the PowerPoint presentation that was still displaying "Thank you for watching".
Some people also found the cloud storage webpage that Luan Yenan had just used and confirmed that the domain name belonged to "Yituan Network Technology Co., Ltd."
Luan Muyin glanced at the business card in her hand: "Yituan E-commerce Co., Ltd."
It's obvious what the relationship is between the two without even looking.
Luan Muyin squinted as she pondered the expanded business scope. Meanwhile, Luan Yenan was growing in ways she didn't know, unknowingly laying the groundwork for a grand scheme.
Perhaps this time, it won't be me who faces Luan Lizheng's attack, nor will it be me.
At that moment, a gasp came from the employees in the corridor.
It must have been an employee who came up in the elevator who happened to bump into Luan Zuo's wife and was startled by them.
"Was that Miss Luan and her wife just now?"
"Probably, otherwise who would dare to swagger around like that?"
Am I the only one who thought they were so cool and beautiful just now?
"Of course you're not the only one!"
The employees' chatter brought everyone in the meeting room back to reality.
One of the tall, slightly balding men stood up. He scratched his head and after a while spoke to Luan Muyin: "President Luan, can I copy this PPT? I want to go back and discuss it with our team. It may take some time to give... Ye Nan an answer."
"President Luan, I need it too. This concept, this concept is really... I feel like my mind is a mess right now."
"Me too, me too! Mr. Luan, we need some time."
Once one clever mind gets it, others follow suit.
They felt as if they had returned to their school days, received a lesson from a university professor, and suddenly understood everything.
At this point, someone remembered another rumor about Luan Yenan.
This person became a visiting professor at Peking University.
So, is it possible to sneak into school and audit classes at some point?
Some people have begun to consider its feasibility.
