With the super chip sample in hand, Zhang Yue immediately gathered the core members of his team and excitedly said in the conference room:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the successful development of the chip is a crucial step we have taken."

Next, we must immediately devote ourselves to the research and development of supercomputers, utilizing the powerful performance of this chip to create a groundbreaking supercomputer and truly bring our super AI project to fruition.

Li Fei's eyes gleamed as he excitedly said, "President Zhang, this is an excellent opportunity!"

With our own chips, the performance of supercomputers will definitely surpass that of existing products on the market.

We must seize this opportunity and gain a competitive edge in the market.

Technical expert Lao Chen nodded and said, "That's right, chips have laid a solid foundation for us."

However, the development of supercomputers involves a great deal of complex system integration and optimization work.

We need to work overtime to finish as soon as possible.

Zhang Yue smiled and encouraged everyone: "You're all right. Although the task is arduous, I have faith in our team's capabilities."

From this moment forward, everyone must devote themselves fully to the research and development of supercomputers.

In the days that followed, the team members worked day and night in the laboratory and the R&D workshop.

Lao Chen led his technical team to conduct in-depth optimization and debugging of the chip to ensure that it could perform at its best in the supercomputer system.

Li Fei was responsible for the overall architecture design and software system development of the supercomputer, working closely with the hardware team to achieve seamless integration of hardware and software.

After months of hard work, the development of the supercomputer is finally nearing completion.

The team conducted comprehensive testing and optimization of the supercomputer, and all performance indicators met the expected targets.

Looking at the test data, Zhang Yue smiled with satisfaction and said:

"Thank you all for your hard work. Our supercomputer AI-01 is finally ready to be launched to the market."

Next, we need to develop a detailed marketing strategy to help more people understand and use our products.

Business negotiator Xiao Li said confidently, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry."

I have contacted several media outlets and industry exhibitions, preparing to hold a grand launch event for AI-01 to attract the attention of the global technology community.

Soon, the AI-01 launch event was held as scheduled.

The venue was brightly lit, and media reporters and industry experts gathered there.

Standing on the stage, Zhang Yue passionately introduced: "Distinguished guests, today we are very honored to introduce to you our team's independently developed supercomputer AI-01."

It is equipped with our independently developed super chip, possessing powerful computing and intelligent processing capabilities, which will bring revolutionary changes to many fields such as scientific research, finance, and healthcare.

The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, filled with anticipation for AI-01's performance.

After the press conference, AI-01 quickly caused a sensation in the market, and orders poured in.

Zhang Yue and his team members felt a great sense of accomplishment as they watched the number of orders steadily increase.

However, the good times did not last long.

Just as the AI-01 was selling like hotcakes, NA Corporation suddenly announced the launch of its own supercomputer.

This news came as a bolt from the blue, leaving Zhang Yue and his team members utterly shocked.

Xiao Li rushed into Zhang Yue's office and said anxiously, "Mr. Zhang, something terrible has happened!"
NA Corporation has launched their supercomputer, and based on the published performance specifications, it's far more powerful than our AI-01.

Zhang Yue frowned and said, "Don't panic, let's find out the details."

How did they do it? Don't our chips have unique advantages?

After some investigation, the team discovered that NA did not possess 6G technology.

However, they made a major breakthrough in chip manufacturing technology and developed a chip with extremely powerful performance.

With this chip, their supercomputer is three times more powerful than AI-01 in terms of computing speed and processing power.

Moreover, in order to seize the market, NA set the price of its supercomputer at only one-third of that of AI-01.

This news plunged the team members into frustration and anxiety.

Li Fei said angrily, "This is so unfair!"
We painstakingly developed chips and supercomputers, but they overtook us with their superior chip manufacturing technology and then flooded the market with low prices.

Old Chen sighed and said, "Technological competition is just that cruel."

We have made breakthroughs in chip development, but they have also made new progress in other areas.

We cannot be discouraged; we must find a way to meet this challenge.

Zhang Yue pondered for a moment, then said firmly, "Don't be discouraged, everyone."

Although NA's supercomputers currently hold a certain advantage, we also have our own unique characteristics.

Our AI-01 is powered by 6G technology, giving it unique advantages in intelligent interaction and data processing.

Moreover, our customers have already developed a certain level of recognition and trust in our products.

We must fully leverage these advantages to upgrade and optimize AI-01.

After listening to Zhang Yue's words, the team members rallied.

Everyone began to conduct a comprehensive evaluation and analysis of AI-01 to identify areas for improvement.

The technical team worked overtime to optimize the software system, improving the smoothness and accuracy of intelligent interaction.

At the same time, they also work closely with the chip R&D team to explore how to further tap the chip's potential and improve computing performance.

After a period of effort, AI-01 has completed its upgrade.

Zhang Yue gathered the team members again and said, "Everyone, thanks to our efforts, AI-01 has completed the upgrade."

Its performance has been significantly improved, and its intelligent interaction functions have been further enhanced.

Next, we need to revise our market strategy, highlighting our strengths, and compete with NA.

Xiao Li nodded and said, "Mr. Zhang, I suggest that we strengthen communication and cooperation with our existing customers, provide them with better services and technical support, and improve customer satisfaction and loyalty."

At the same time, we can also launch customized solutions for specific industries to meet the needs of different customers.

Li Fei added, "We can also strengthen brand promotion, highlighting the 6G technology advantages and intelligent interaction features of AI-01, so that more people can understand what makes our product unique."

Zhang Yue agreed with everyone's suggestions and said, "Very good, let's proceed with this plan."

We must believe that as long as we leverage our strengths and continuously innovate and improve, we will surely be able to remain invincible in market competition.

So the team members sprang into action once again.

Xiao Li led the business team to conduct in-depth communication with existing clients to understand their needs and feedback, and to provide them with personalized solutions and high-quality after-sales service.

Li Fei organized his technical team to participate in various industry exhibitions and academic exchange activities to showcase the upgraded achievements and unique advantages of AI-01.

Over time, AI-01 has gradually regained customer recognition and trust in the market.

Although NA's supercomputers still have a certain price advantage.

However, the AI-01 has attracted a group of customers who have high requirements for performance and intelligence, thanks to its unique technology and intelligent interaction functions.

At an industry summit, Zhang Yue met Henry, the president of NA Company.

Henry looked at Zhang Yue, smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Zhang, I didn't expect that your AI-01 could still hold a place in the market after the upgrade. It really makes me look at you in a new light."

Zhang Yue was slightly taken aback, then politely replied, "Mr. Henry, market competition is fierce. We have gained recognition because of the team's efforts and the strength of our products."

However, I am quite surprised that the technological highlights of your company's new product seem to have many similarities with our 6G technology.

A fleeting, almost imperceptible look of panic crossed Henry's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and smiled, saying:
"Mr. Zhang, the development of science and technology has its own commonalities; perhaps it's just a coincidence."

A sense of foreboding welled up in Zhang Yue's heart. After the summit, he immediately rushed back to the company and convened a meeting with the core members of the team.

"Everyone, NA's newly launched products likely use our 6G technology."

We must immediately find out exactly what happened.

Technical expert Lao Chen frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang, based on the information we have so far, this is indeed a possibility."

But our 6G technology has always maintained strict security measures, so how could it have been leaked?

Li Fei also looked puzzled: "Yes, could it be that there's a problem internally?"
But our team has always been very united; who would do something like that?

Zhang Yue took a deep breath and said, "Now is not the time to speculate; we need to investigate immediately."

Old Chen, lead the technical team to conduct a detailed technical analysis of the new product and see if you can find more clues.

Li Fei, you are in charge of investigating recent personnel changes and unusual situations within the company.

The team members immediately sprang into action.

Old Chen and his technical team worked day and night in the laboratory, disassembling and analyzing the code of NA Company's new products.

Li Fei then launched a secret investigation within the company, asking each employee if they had noticed anything unusual recently.

A few days later, Li Fei walked into Zhang Yue's office looking exhausted and said:

"Mr. Zhang, I've investigated some things."

There was an engineer on our team named Zhou Mi who suddenly resigned a few days ago, and he left in a hurry, without even getting his salary settled.

Zhang Yue frowned: "Zhou Mi? How is he usually?"

Li Fei sighed: "His skills are pretty good, but he's rather introverted and doesn't usually interact with others much."

I heard he's been having some financial difficulties lately and has even borrowed money from several colleagues.

Zhang Yue felt a tightness in his chest, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.

Just then, Old Chen rushed over and excitedly said, "Mr. Zhang, we have made a major discovery."

Technical analysis revealed that the 6G technology used in NA's new product is almost identical to our core algorithm.

Furthermore, some details suggest that it was leaked by one of our own staff.

Zhang Yue suddenly stood up and said, "It seems that Zhou Mi is highly suspicious."

"Li Fei, contact him immediately and see if you can arrange to meet and talk."

Li Fei immediately dialed Zhou Mi's number, but no one answered.

Zhang Yue made a quick decision: "Let's go, let's go to his house and take a look." When they arrived at Zhou Mi's residence, they found that the room was empty, with only some messy items left.

Looking at the empty room, Zhang Yue said angrily, "We must find this traitor!"

Just when they were at their wits' end, Zhang Yue suddenly remembered that Zhou Mi had once had close contact with an external supplier in a project.

He immediately instructed Li Fei to contact the supplier to see if he could get any clues from him.

After some effort, they finally got in touch with the supplier.

The supplier told them that after Zhou Mi resigned, he had contacted him to inquire about NA Company.

He also claimed that he had an important technology that he could sell to NA Company in exchange for a large sum of money.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yue trembled with rage: "This Zhou Mi actually betrayed the team and the company's core technology for money!"

Li Fei comforted him, "Mr. Zhang, there's no use getting angry now. We need to find a way to recover the losses."

At the same time, Zhou Mi and NA Company should be made to pay the price for their actions.

Zhang Yue, his eyes cold and stern, paced back and forth in the conference room before stopping and speaking firmly to his team members:

"I believe that NA Company has planted more than just Zhou Mi among our spies."

They are plotting to steal our 6G technology; we cannot sit idly by and wait for our demise.

I have a plan; let's play along.

Li Fei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Zhang, please tell me, what's the plan?"

Zhang Yue slightly raised his chin and said, "We announced to the public that our 6G technology has been upgraded again, and we've made it seem like we've kept all the important technical data in a safe."

I refuse to believe those spies won't take the bait.

Old Chen said with some concern, "Mr. Zhang, isn't this too risky?"

"If the technical data really gets stolen, that would be a real problem."

Zhang Yue patted Old Chen on the shoulder and said confidently, "Old Chen, don't worry."

We made backups beforehand, and the safe was just a decoy.

The true core information is only known to me and a few core members.

We need to use this safe to expose the traitor hiding in the shadows.

The team members nodded in agreement.

Therefore, Zhang Yue immediately arranged for people to release the news to the outside world, claiming that the company's 6G technology had achieved a major breakthrough.

Furthermore, the safe containing "important technical data" was placed in a conspicuous but seemingly heavily guarded room within the company.

Over the next few days, things seemed calm on the surface, but everyone could feel a tense atmosphere in the air.

Zhang Yue personally checked the safe every day and also arranged for Li Fei to lead a team to monitor it secretly.

One late night, when the entire company was immersed in silence, a dark figure quietly sneaked into the room where the safe was kept.

The shadowy figure cautiously looked around, and after confirming that no one was nearby, began to pry open the safe.

Just then, the lights suddenly blazed on, and Zhang Yue and Li Fei led a group of people out from all directions, surrounding the dark figure.

The shadowy figure panicked and tried to escape, but it was too late.

Zhang Yue stared coldly at the shadowy figure and said, "You've finally taken the bait. Tell me, who sent you?"

The shadowy figure remained silent, only keeping its head down.

Li Fei stepped forward and ripped off the mask of the dark figure. To everyone's surprise, the person turned out to be Xiao Zhao, the seemingly honest and unassuming technician in the company.

Zhang Yue frowned and said painfully, "Xiao Zhao, I have always trusted you. I never thought you were a spy."

Why did you do that?

Xiao Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry."

My mother is sick and needs a lot of money for treatment. People from NA Company contacted me and said they would give me a large sum of money if I helped them steal 6G technology.

I was momentarily blinded by greed and agreed to their request.

Zhang Yue sighed and said, "Xiao Zhao, you made a serious mistake by selling the company's core technology for money."

You have not only harmed the company, but also the team that fought alongside you.

Now, you must take responsibility for your actions.

Xiao Zhao lowered his head, tears of regret welling up in his eyes: "President Zhang, I know I was wrong."

I am willing to accept any punishment.

Zhang Yue looked at everyone and said, "Let's hand Xiao Zhao over to the police."

This incident also serves as a wake-up call for us. In the future, we must strengthen the company's confidentiality measures to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Li Fei nodded and said, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry."

I will immediately implement a stricter confidentiality system and strengthen the vetting and management of employees.

Zhang Yue nodded in satisfaction and said, "Good, everyone should learn from this lesson and continue to work hard to develop technology."

I believe that as long as we are united, we will surely overcome any difficulties and challenges.

After Xiao Zhao was taken away by the police, Zhang Yue thought the crisis was temporarily over and the company could return to normal and continue to develop.

But a few days later, Old Chen rushed into Zhang Yue's office in a panic, his voice trembling as he said:
"Mr. Zhang, something terrible has happened! It seems we've lost our core 6G data!"

Zhang Yue suddenly stood up, his eyes wide, and asked incredulously:

"What? What happened? Weren't we already taking extra precautions? How could it still be missing?"

Old Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said anxiously:
"I don't know either. Today, as usual, I went to check where the core data was stored and found that the encrypted hard drive where the data was stored was missing."

Moreover, there were no signs of damage around it; it was as if it had vanished into thin air.

Zhang Yue frowned, paced back and forth in his office, and after a moment of contemplation, said:
"It seems we still have internal problems, and this traitor is very clever and well hidden."

"Old Chen, don't panic. Think carefully about whether any suspicious people have approached the location where the core data is stored recently."

Old Chen frowned and tried hard to recall: "Everyone in the company has been busy with their own things lately, and there doesn't seem to be anyone particularly suspicious."

However… there's something going on. Our company's Vice President Li went to that area a few days ago, saying he was looking for an important document, but I don't know if he found it or not.

Zhang Yue's heart tightened. Vice President Li was a veteran of the company, with a very high status. He was always diligent in his work. How could it be him?
But since the clues currently point to him, we can't ignore it. Zhang Yue took a deep breath and said:

"Old Chen, let's keep this quiet for now. Let's investigate Vice President Li's recent whereabouts and activities discreetly."

Over the next few days, Zhang Yue and Li Fei secretly arranged for people to conduct a follow-up investigation on Vice President Li.

They discovered that Vice President Li had been meeting frequently with a mysterious person recently, and each meeting was held in a secluded place with very short conversations.

One evening, Zhang Yue and Li Fei decided to personally follow Vice President Li.

They followed cautiously from a distance, and saw Vice President Li arrive at an abandoned factory to meet the mysterious man.

The mysterious man handed Vice President Li a thick envelope. After taking the envelope, Vice President Li took out the lost encrypted hard drive from his pocket and handed it to the other party.

Zhang Yue and Li Fei exchanged a glance, both seeing shock and anger in each other's eyes.

After the mysterious man left, they stepped forward and stopped Vice President Li.

Zhang Yue looked at Vice President Li, his eyes filled with disappointment and heartache, and said:
"Vice President Li, I have always respected you and regarded you as a backbone and partner of the company."

But I never expected you to do something like this!

When Vice President Li saw Zhang Yue and Li Fei, his face turned pale instantly, and his body trembled involuntarily.

He was silent for a moment, then sighed deeply and said:

"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry to you and to the company. But I have my reasons."

Zhang Yue said coldly, "Dilemma?"
What hardship could make you sell out the company's core technology and betray the team that fought alongside you?

With his head down, Vice President Li said in a low voice, "My son is studying abroad and has suddenly fallen seriously ill. He needs a lot of money for surgery."

Although I have accumulated some savings over the years at the company, it is still far from enough.

Just when I was at my wit's end, people from NA Company contacted me. They said that if I helped them get the 6G core data, they would give me enough money to save my son.

In a moment of confusion, I agreed to their request.

Zhang Yue said angrily, "Even if you have difficulties, you can't solve them this way!"
Betraying the company will not only cause huge losses to the company, but also make the hard work of the entire team go to waste.

Do you know how much we've sacrificed for developing 6G technology?

Vice President Li knelt on the ground in remorse, tears streaming down his face: "President Zhang, I know I was wrong."

I was blinded by greed for a moment, and now it's too late to regret it.

Punish me, however you want, I'll accept it.

Zhang Yue looked at Vice President Li kneeling on the ground, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He took a deep breath and said:

"Vice President Li, the mistake you made is unforgivable. But the most important thing right now is to mitigate the losses."

NA has obtained our core information, and they will definitely accelerate their research and development to launch new products to compete with us.

We must find a way to deal with this.

Li Fei frowned and said, "President Zhang, the information has already been leaked, and it's too late for us to develop new technologies."

Furthermore, with our data, NA will definitely improve and optimize our technology, and our advantage may disappear.

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Yue chuckled and said, "No, we still have a chance."

Everyone was taken aback when they heard him say that: "A chance? What chance?"

Zhang Yue suddenly looked at Vice President Li: "Tell me, did you really sell all the information you stole to the other party?"

When Vice President Li heard him say that, his face flushed red, and he looked ashamed: "Yes, that's right."

Zhang Yue suddenly laughed and said, "That's great!" (End of Chapter)
