Episode 19 recap: Ascent Tech Wins Big Contract
In this episode, Ding Muyang met with Chu Siyuan to discuss the market potential for smart home technology. Chu Siyuan saw it as an extension of smart water management that could meet the fast-paced lifestyle needs of modern people. Ding Muyang realized this was not just a business opportunity, but also part of the plan to save Luo Chengyu, and he was determined to go all-out for Luo Chengyu's recovery.
Manager He Wei welcomed Maison and Yu Jiaming to the Dream Town, as they wanted to set up shop there to take advantage of the tax benefits and high-quality office environment. He promised fair treatment for all companies.
Soon after, the Dajing Group allocated 3 billion yuan as seed funding for the Dream Town. The chairman, Zheng Dao, personally took the stage to express support for emerging tech industries, especially big data, cloud computing, and AI companies. Zheng Dao and Qi Dongfang then officially launched the Dream Fund in front of the crowd.
After the ceremony, Qi Dongfang told Browne that their open policy would not change due to past conflicts, and they encouraged fair competition between companies, opposing monopolies and bullying.
Chu Ange arranged for Wang Tao to join Shenlan Tech and helped him set up a lab in Jiangnan. Wang Tao asked Chu Ange for help in building a team, and Chu Ange also frequently accompanied Luo Chengyu on runs to aid his recovery.
To strengthen team cohesion, Ding Muyang organized a real-life CS team building activity. Although Chu Ange was injured while protecting Luo Chengyu, Luo Chengyu still struggled to overcome the shadows in his heart.
