Episode 26 recap: Huang Zhongkai's Mischief on Zhang Haichao's Chip

In Episode 26, Jin Wen's Taishan mobile phones were on fire in Huaqiangbei, directly squeezing out the previous boss Ni Zhixiong, who was furious. Ni Zhixiong personally took action to give Jin Wen a warning, but Li Dongsheng was very stubborn, waving his legal documents around, and Ni Zhixiong couldn't even find a way to sue him. In the end, he could only soften his stance and seek cooperation.

He said he wanted to cooperate, and the magnanimous Li Dongsheng offered to give him the phones for free, as long as Ni Zhixiong submitted to Taishan Mobile. Hearing this, Ni Zhixiong's eyes bulged like copper bells, and he almost signed the contract.

In the evening, Li Dongsheng went home, still thinking about Jin Wen, and brought her a late-night snack. As soon as he entered, he heard Jin Wen on the phone, saying she had to meet her child tomorrow. Hearing this, Li Dongsheng was taken aback - he had no idea Jin Wen was married and had a child before. When Jin Wen realized he had brought this up, she immediately got angry and didn't let him ask more.

But Li Dongsheng only had eyes for Jin Wen, and he just hugged her. The two slept soundly that night, and Jin Wen even opened up, saying her ex-husband was a teacher and would bring their child on the weekend. Li Dongsheng was relieved to hear this.

On the other side, Ouyang Zixia was very confident about Zhang Haichao's company, saying it wouldn't be long before they went public. Huang Linxi was also delighted to see Ouyang Zixia emerge from the shadow of her breakup.

Time flew by, and nine months had passed. Zhang Haichao's team had worked their hearts out and finally developed a smartphone processor chip. Ouyang Zixia and Jin Wen both came to witness this historic moment. Zhang Haichao personally installed the chip, but to everyone's surprise, it failed! Everyone was stunned, and the anxious Zhang Haichao couldn't find the problem, even though Liu Han said he had checked it and there were no issues. In the end, they decided to try it again on the simulation board, and this would take a full week.

Zhang Hai Chao began to have doubts in his heart, suspecting that someone had tampered with something. Huang Lin Xi was also anxiously turning, not knowing who was behind the mischief. Jiang Wei quietly told Huang Lin Xi that she had seen Liu Han and Mi Lan Da getting very close, and was worried that Liu Han was being taken advantage of.

Although Huang Lin Xi was unwilling to believe it, he still decided to ask Huang Zhong Kai for clarification. But Huang Zhong Kai's attitude was like nothing had happened, even saying that planting spies was a routine operation, which made Huang Lin Xi almost faint with anger.

When Zhang Hai Chao returned home, Huang Lin Xi pulled him aside on the balcony to talk it over. Zhang Hai Chao firmly believed that Liu Han would not betray him. On Jin Wen's side, because she had signed an exclusive agreement, when Zhang Hai Chao's chip had a problem, she was also anxious along with him.

Li Dong Sheng was very calm, saying that Zhang Hai Chao could handle this matter. Ou Yang Zi Xia also came to ask Huang Lin Xi about the situation, she also suspected Liu Han, but Zhang Hai Chao just didn't believe it. Ou Yang Zi Xia could only ask Huang Lin Xi to investigate quietly.

Li Dong Sheng also arranged a banquet, inviting Huang Zhong Kai and Wu Xiao to dinner, ostensibly to discuss cooperation, but actually to probe their bottom line. It turned out that the vulnerability in Zhang Hai Chao's chip was engineered by Huang Zhong Kai. He planned to wait for Zhang Hai Chao to solve the problem, and his own chip would already occupy the market, intending to defeat Zhang Hai Chao within a year.

Huang Lin Xi and Jiang Wei discussed how to investigate the mole, and Jiang Wei planned to start with the researchers' information. However, they were spotted by Jason while going through the files, adding more complexity and twists to the matter. But no matter how difficult the road ahead, they had to grit their teeth and persevere, because success always belongs to those who never give up.
