Chapter 638 The Mid-Autumn Festival at Zhihai Garden
In the golden autumn of October, which coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xu Shenxue unusually did not go to work, nor did he go out for inspections, nor did he stay at home to rest as usual. However, he still met with people and processed documents intermittently.

Instead, he temporarily put aside his work and rested at home, relaxing while spending time with his family.

He's quite busy throughout the year, with a lot of things to do... Of course, he doesn't actually feel busy on a daily basis.

Putting aside the fact that his physical fitness has been optimized through years of systematic training, his physical functions have far surpassed what a normal human should have, and the fatigue from daily work is nothing to him.

The main thing is that people like Xu Shenxue actually have very comfortable, even enjoyable, jobs...

Many senior executives actually enjoy their work very much... For them, there is no such thing as working hours or holidays. They work seven days a week, and often there is no distinction between working hours and rest time.

Tired... definitely tired.

But it was truly enjoyable!

Other people at work are just ordinary oxen and horses, dragging their feet and not being proactive at all, and it's very tiring. If they don't do a good job, they get scolded...

However, the company's senior management are served by drivers and secretaries from the moment they leave home. They can close their eyes and rest while riding in the car to work. When they arrive at the company, they don't even need to press the elevator button themselves; their subordinates will naturally do it for them!

Upon entering the office, one is immediately met with a chorus of stares, with subordinates either wearing flattering smiles or avoiding eye contact.

They... don't even have to open the door themselves!

They're enjoying their work!
Xu Shenxue's work schedule is pretty much the same!
Of course, although the daily work is not very busy and there are a lot of people flattering and serving me, being busy every day can get annoying after a while.

Therefore, he plans to take a good rest during the holiday.

Lin Yaxian was naturally delighted that Xu Shenxue wanted to take a break. Xu Shenxue usually traveled a lot for work and was very busy... Another very important factor was that Xu Shenxue had many women.

Therefore, for a considerable period of time, although Xu Shenxue returned to Zhihai Garden, he did not necessarily rest at Lin Yaxian's place. He would also rest at the places of other women such as Secretary Li and Secretary Song.

This time, however, Xu Shenxue did not intend to go to other women's places, but instead stayed at home.

Xu Shenxue was resting at home, and his mother was quite happy... She usually lived here, but she rarely saw her son.

Over time, the solid man became proud of his son's great achievements in his career.

But on the other hand, she also wants to see her son from time to time.

After the family finished breakfast, Xu Shenxue was reading a book in the living room. He usually liked to read when he had nothing to do. He didn't read novels, but mainly history and economics books, and secondarily some science and engineering books.

Reading books on history and economics is primarily for continuously improving one's management skills.

The reason he reads science and engineering books isn't to turn himself into a researcher, but purely so that he can understand what his subordinates are saying when listening to reports... After all, all the companies under his management are high-tech enterprises, even Yihai Technology Group, which has the lowest technological content, is a legitimate internet company.

Zhiyun Group and Fairy Mountain Holdings are both companies at the forefront of human scientific research, researching the most cutting-edge technologies.

To manage these companies, Xu Shenxue is not required to know too much about technology, nor is he required to personally take charge of any research and development. However, he should at least be able to understand reports. Therefore, he needs to know some professional terms and basic common sense.

Over the years, Xu Shenxue has never stopped studying science and engineering. Thanks to his consistently high level of research achievement (A-level) and his high level of study (S-level), he can study very efficiently, even though he spends relatively little time on it.

Xu Shenxue sat on the sofa reading a book, while Lin Yaxian was half-lying on the other end of the sofa playing on her phone. Recently, she had become obsessed with watching short dramas. In her words, although short dramas are corny and the plots are melodramatic, they are so enjoyable to watch!

Of course, she doesn't watch short dramas about domineering CEOs; she mainly watches comedies, revenge stories, and stories about ordinary people rising to power... If she wanted to watch a domineering CEO drama, there was Xu Shenxue right next to her.

Xu Shenxue is the real domineering CEO. He's good-looking, has a great physique, and his stamina is undeniable. Lin Yaxian has never seen him collapse from exhaustion in all these years. It's always her who's too tired to move... Heaven knows why he has such good stamina.

Furthermore, Xu Shenxue's social status and the resources he can mobilize are far more powerful than 99% of the fictional domineering CEOs. With a single order from Xu Shenxue, he can mobilize trillions of yuan in funds and hundreds of thousands of technical and management personnel to tackle a project... while the domineering CEOs in novels do not have this ability.

Even in a simple comparison of money, he can't compare to Xu Shenxue...

Many people can't even imagine a domineering CEO as awesome as Xu Shenxue!
With Xu Shenxue, who is even more awesome than a domineering CEO, right next to her, Lin Yaxian has no interest in short dramas about domineering CEOs. She prefers to watch short dramas about female protagonists seeking revenge, underdogs rising up, or comedy... mainly because she hasn't experienced these things in her life, which touches on her blind spots in knowledge.

After all, she had a smooth life from childhood to adulthood. She was the daughter of a billionaire since she was a child, and her father, Mr. Lin, doted on her. She was definitely a doting father.

He grew up in luxury and had a smooth academic journey. He met Xu Shenxue before he even graduated from university...

Then she met Xu Shenxue through a blind date and fell in love. Not long after graduation, the two got married smoothly. Moreover, the wedding was a wedding of the century, and its scale was so grand that it was recorded in history. It was more magnificent than any woman could imagine.

At the wedding, the guests from all over the world were all prominent figures in the global community. Most of the guests arrived by private jet, and there were so many private jets that they even caused a traffic jam at Shenzhen Airport.

These days, it's rare to see a wedding that can clog an airport.

If all the wedding guests had disappeared, the global economy would have been severely shaken that day…

After getting married, she had three children, a son and a daughter.

She has lived a smooth and successful life... She has never experienced hardship or grievances, nor has she ever felt the misery of an ordinary person.

So now she prefers stories about suffering, revenge, and the rise of the little guy. She definitely doesn't empathize with them; it's purely out of curiosity: how can people be so miserable?

As for being funny, it's even simpler. Watching it makes you laugh and puts you in a good mood!

So, Lin Ya-Hsien has recently become obsessed with short dramas, and she hasn't been drawing much anymore...

Xu Shenxue and his wife were lying on the sofa, and the whole house was very quiet... After breakfast, Xu's mother took the three children out to play.

In recent years, Xu's mother has increasingly enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, taking them out to play whenever she has free time.

Xu's mother took her three children for a stroll, not going anywhere else, but instead arriving at a small park inside Zhihai Park. There were many children's play facilities, as well as dedicated instructors and safety officers, making it a popular place for many children in Zhihai Park to play.

Zhihaiyuan is quite large. The entire Zhihaiyuan is divided into two parts. One part is the villa area on the west side, which has hundreds of villas where senior management and core scientists from various companies under Xu Shenxue live. This villa area in the west is actually the dormitory provided by Xu Shenxue for his core employees... so the houses are not for sale, but are just for them to live in for free.

Of course, many executives do not live in Zhihaiyuan, but choose to find other places to live... After all, not everyone likes living in a dormitory. Although it is a villa area, it is still essentially a dormitory!
The eastern section of Zhihai Garden is the residential area for Xu Shenxue's family. In addition to Xu Shenxue and Lin Yaxian's family, more than a dozen other women who had borne him children also live in Zhihai Garden, each woman and her child living in a villa. Xu Weiwei's family also lives here.

The east and west sections are actually separated, mainly to ensure Xu Shenxue's safety... After all, Xu Shenxue doesn't want to take a walk in his own home with dozens of bodyguards accompanying him!
While Xu's mother was playing with her three children, several of Xu Shenxue's other children came over to play as well. This small playground was a regular gathering place for Xu Shenxue's children, especially since the children were generally quite young and liked to play with each other.

Accompanying the children were several of their mothers, including Secretary Li and Secretary Song, who came together and chatted with Xu's mother, trying to please the elderly woman.

As Xu's mother spoke, she looked at the seven or eight children playing in front of her... If this were ten years ago, she would never have imagined that she would have so many grandchildren. The seven or eight in front of her were only a part of it; Xu Shenxue had about twenty children in total. The women who moved into Zhihai Garden all had at least one child, and a very small number had two or three... Only women who had given birth could move in.

Looking at these children, Xu's mother couldn't help but sigh.
She and Xu's father started from scratch. They used to think that after their son got married, he would give them a few grandchildren... She even urged Xu Shenxue to get married and have children.

She never imagined that her son, Xu Shenxue, would find her more than a dozen daughters-in-law and give birth to more than twenty grandchildren!
With so many grandchildren, you might think she's happy, and she is quite happy, because she still holds the traditional view of the older generation: many children bring many blessings.

But sometimes I feel quite helpless... She has too many grandchildren, and she treats them all very well. At the same time, most of the children's mothers teach their children to please Xu's mother and compete for her favor, so these children all like to gather around her.

With so many children, there's constant chatter in my ears, and sometimes when they're noisy or fighting, I let her flip through the pages. It's not good to favor any of them.

Sigh, there are too many daughters-in-law here, and the grandchildren are a hassle too.

She sometimes even worries that with so many grandchildren, what will happen if they fight over the inheritance in the future? Won't it cause a huge uproar? After all, none of her daughters-in-law are really stupid, and they'll probably drag the children into the fight for the inheritance!

Looking at all this, Xu's mother remembered that there was a daughter-in-law who was pregnant in the seaside villa outside Zhihai Garden.

Moreover, that daughter-in-law is somewhat special; she's a career woman who insisted on continuing to work even after marrying her son, and even worked from home while pregnant. She's clearly the kind of person with a very strong work ethic.

Furthermore, this person's background is somewhat unique. He was previously an assistant in the board of directors' office at Liuhe Investment, and now he works at Zhiyun Group. Both of these companies are core enterprises under Xu Shenxue's control.

Liuhe Investment is the parent company that Xu Shenxue uses to control a series of companies, including Zhiyun Group, Weiku Electronics Group, Yihai Technology Group, and Hailan Automobile Group. Xi Wanqing's experience working here is enough to give her a vast network of connections.

Zhiyun Group is the core of Xu Shenxue's series of companies, a world-class multinational high-tech giant, and Xi Wanqing currently works at Xinyun Technology, an independent brand under Zhiyun Group.

This means that among Xu Shenxue's many women, Xi Wanqing was actually the only one who had a professional connection with him.

This identity is quite special.

In another ten or twenty years, Xi Wanqing might become a core executive in her own company.

Will she have other ideas then, such as competing with Lin Yaxian, especially supporting her own child to compete with Lin Yaxian's child?
Xu's mother didn't know, but she had watched a lot of palace dramas, and all the plots told her that her worries were not unfounded, but very real.

Thinking about all this, Xu's mother couldn't help but sigh... Her son really was something else, why did he have to find so many women?

This made her a little worried.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Meanwhile, at the seaside villa, Xi Wanqing didn't have the various ideas that Xu's mother had imagined.

She's currently pregnant, and the baby hasn't been born yet, so she doesn't have time to think too far ahead.

Even if she wanted to, she wouldn't want her child to go to Zhihai Garden...

She has her own career and her own life plans, and she won't go around competing with a group of women for his affections.

She prefers to live outside with her child. Although Xu Shenxue won't come often and they can't live like a normal couple, at least during the time Xu Shenxue is here, this place will be a complete home.

There's a dad, a mom, and a child!

This will also provide children with a better and more normal environment to grow up in.

Instead of running to Zhihai Garden and competing for favor with a group of women, having the child meet more than twenty older brothers and sisters as soon as he is born... that's just ridiculous.

After the baby is born, she will continue to work from home for a while, and then go back to work when the baby is a little older. The nanny will take the baby to the company with her, so that she can see her child and go to work at the same time, which is the best of both worlds.

While it might be inconvenient for others to bring their children to work, she could... She was well aware of her special position in the company!

When the child is older and more sensible, we can take them on more trips and let them see more of the world!
As Xi Wanqing was envisioning life after her child's birth, her mother came over with a tray: "Millet porridge is cooking in the kitchen!"

"You've been feeling much better these past few days, so you should eat more to nourish yourself!"

Xi's mother was also worried about her daughter... When she gave birth to Xi Wanqing, it wasn't this exaggerated. She vomited for a few days and then had a good appetite.

After her daughter became pregnant, she suffered terribly. In the early stages, she vomited everything she ate, and then she lost her appetite for everything. Even when she forced herself to eat, she would vomit profusely.

She went to great lengths to help her daughter recover... She even secretly prayed to more than a dozen deities, but to little avail.

Fortunately, things have improved a lot in the last two weeks, and Xi Wanqing can now eat almost anything, which has finally put her at ease.

Two days later, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Xi Wanqing went to Zhihai Garden and spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with Xu Shenxue's family. Xi Wanqing only went there on important holidays; she didn't go to Zhihai Garden on ordinary days.

The whole family gathered together to eat mooncakes and admire the moon, which was quite lively. Although there were many people in the family, especially many women, they were all very harmonious and polite to each other. At least that's what Xu Shenxue saw.

Whether they get along in private, or even curse each other, is hard to say.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, businesses resumed normal operations, and Xu Shenxue once again appeared at the headquarters of Zhiyun Group.

Just a few days after returning to work following the holiday, Xu Shenxue received good news: the small experimental machine at the YANC Integrated Computing Center of Zhiyun Group had successfully completed all tests.

This also means that the YANC integrated computing center is about to enter the formal construction phase, and with all the components, especially the quantum computer and APO6000 graphics card, prepared in advance, the setup of the formal system will be relatively fast.

By next spring at the latest, Xu Shenxue will be able to see the first YANC integrated computing center built and put into use.

This means that Zhiyun Group's artificial intelligence computing center will enter the era of the YANC integrated computing center, which combines GPU, quantum computer, and neuromorphic computing!

The biggest feature of the YANC computing system is the significant reduction in computing power cost and lower power consumption... It achieves greater computing power with less electricity, which is very important for Zhiyun Group, which has huge computing power demands and requires a massive power supply.

It's even more important than simply saving on computing power costs.

The Zhiyun Group has plenty of money, but electricity is something that is not easy to increase significantly in the short term. Increasing the power supply is much more complicated than building a computing center, and the construction period is also much longer.

In addition, another major advantage of the YANC computing system is its unique advantage in the field of low-precision computing, which allows artificial intelligence research institutes to develop better artificial intelligence based on this characteristic.

This technology will be able to be applied to a range of artificial intelligence applications in the future, including robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, smart electric vehicles, and virtual devices.

Xu Shenxue has high expectations for the two main advantages of the YANC system!
Once the YANC system is built and put into use on a large scale, Zhiyun Group's artificial intelligence technology will achieve another leap forward... This time, its artificial intelligence technology will be so advanced that foreign competitors will not be able to understand the code, or even if they do understand it, they will be powerless to copy or imitate it!
