Cen Huai'an recently has a job opportunity for overseas exchange and learning. This is a forum for the communication industry of multiple countries.

In the past, Cen Huai'an not only showcased the achievements of the domestic communication industry but also sought to understand the thinking of high-tech professionals in the same industry from other countries. This exchange proved helpful for their research and development.

The forum lasted for two days with a tightly packed schedule, including various themed speeches and roundtable discussions.

In the past, such forums didn't showcase China prominently, as more advanced research came from developed countries like Country M and Country H.

However, Cen Huai'an's latest research results showcased the development potential of China to foreign nations. During these two days, he faced numerous questions, both friendly and unfriendly, but he skillfully handled all challenges.

Despite being mentally tense throughout the event, he felt a sense of fatigue after two days. Nevertheless, there were gains as Cen Huai'an visited various advanced achievements from other countries, providing significant inspiration for his future research.

Originally planning to return immediately after the forum, Cen Huai'an decided to stay an extra day to explore the semiconductor technology exhibition at the forum.

With the conference concluded, the exhibition hall was not crowded.

Cen Huai'an, who had a good memory and had already seen everything once, found the second viewing more memorable.

"Mr. Cen, hello."

In this foreign exhibition hall, Cen Huai'an suddenly heard the Chinese language, prompting him to look over.

It was a woman he didn't recognize, but it was evident that she, like him, was Chinese.

"Hello." Cen Huai'an looked at her with a clear gaze, devoid of much emotion, just waiting for her to speak.

"I am Zhong Qiaoqiao. I entered the Youth Class of the Chinese University of Science and Technology at the age of 12, went on a government-sponsored study trip to Country Y at the age of 16, obtained a master's and doctoral degree in semiconductor from Cambridge, and now work at IN Corporation. However, I have always wanted to return to China, just haven't found a unit with similar ideals. After listening to your speech at the forum, I want to join your team."

Zhong Qiaoqiao directly stated her intentions, handing over a file to Cen Huai'an. "This is my self-recommendation, and I naturally want to show you my abilities. These are the results of my research during my school period and after joining the workforce. I hope to impress you, and I really want to join your company."

She didn't adopt an aggressive posture, with a relaxed smile on her face. It seemed like Cen Huai'an's agreement or disagreement didn't matter, but a slight nervousness could be seen in her eyes.

Cen Huai'an took the resume and nodded. "I need to read through it before giving you an answer."

"I'm not in a hurry. My contact information is on top. If you don't mind, can I join you in exploring this exhibition hall?"

Cen Huai'an: "I'm sorry, I prefer to explore on my own."

Visiting alone is more conducive to contemplation; he prefers to explore first and then engage in discussions with others.

Zhong Qiaoqiao didn't mind and graciously said, "Then I won't disturb you."

It wasn't until Cen Huai'an returned to the hotel that he started reviewing Zhong Qiaoqiao's information.

His assistant, sharing the same room, was organizing documents nearby. Seeing Cen Huai'an holding something resembling a resume, the assistant curiously asked, "Boss, are you hiring again?"

Cen Huai'an had already finished reviewing the documents and handed them to his assistant, saying, "Someone gave it to me during the exhibition today. Take a look."

"Zhong Qiaoqiao? This name sounds familiar."

After the assistant finished reading, he immediately exclaimed, "Boss, I know who she is. She's my fellow alumni, and her name is on our school's honor wall. However, she was in the Youth Class, and us regular students who entered the university through the ordinary route have only heard legends about them. Zhong Qiaoqiao is remarkable. Our mentors were even upset when she stayed abroad, saying the country wasted resources on her. Why would she want to join our company?"

Keep in mind that with Zhong Qiaoqiao's capabilities, if she returned to China after obtaining a Ph.D. from Cambridge, she would have plenty of options, although there might be a gap in research conditions between domestic institutions and IN Corporation.

Cen Huai'an replied, "That's not important. I just want to know her capabilities."

The assistant immediately praised her extensively. Although their teachers were heartbroken when she chose to stay abroad, it precisely demonstrated her excellence.

Cen Huai'an said, "Alright, I understand."

The next day, Cen Huai'an, accompanied by his assistant, met with Zhong Qiaoqiao. They discussed some Revitalize's semiconductor projects and inquired if she was certain about joining Revitalize.

Zhong Qiaoqiao, without any hesitation, smiled and said, "I understand your intentions. I joined IN Corporation initially because there was no unit in China that matched my ideals. Revitalize is where I want to be, and your projects align with the direction I want to research. I've decided that if I return, I won't go abroad again. I've always wanted to come back to China."

While she said this with a smile, both Cen Huai'an and his assistant sensed the determination in her tone.

"In that case, Revitalize welcomes your addition."

Cen Huai'an extended his hand, and Zhong Qiaoqiao shook it, her smile widening, "Thank you; I'm also very happy to join Revitalize."

"Have you settled everything with IN Corporation?"

Cen Huai'an took a sip of his coffee and asked.

"It's all settled; I can return to China anytime. By the way, I haven't changed my nationality; I obtained a work visa."

That made things even simpler. Cen Huai'an put down his coffee and said, "We'll return to China tomorrow."

Zhong Qiaoqiao: "Alright, I'll leave with you guys."

Cen Huai'an instructed his assistant to purchase an additional plane ticket.

And that's how Zhong Qiaoqiao became a part of Cen Huai'an's research team. Moreover, as soon as she joined, she showcased her capabilities.

With her addition to Cen Huai'an's research team, progress in their scientific research accelerated, as if gaining a new and powerful force.
