I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ji Qingyan’s words caused the entire room to come to a standstill.

Everyone instinctively turned their gaze toward her, their expressions varied.

Many present knew Ji Qingyan’s identity. She was the representative of Lingyun Group.

This up-and-coming lithography machine company had made quite a splash last year.

This time, the new agreement primarily targeted Lingyun Group.

It was only natural for this woman to stand up in opposition.

But the smiles on the faces of the crowd carried more amusement than surprise.

A Huaxian company, trying to get involved in high-end semiconductors? How could that be possible?

They did not see their actions as suppression or obstruction driven by capital.

They simply believed it was a matter of course.

They even instinctively felt that companies like hers were not worthy.

At that moment, Wendevi stepped onto the stage.

Lingyun Group was their main competitor, and his appearance at this moment confirmed the threat that Lingyun posed to them.

“Ms. Ji, we would like to hear your reasons for opposing. Can you share them with us?”

“Is there even a need to say more? You all know the real reasons. Everyone is just pretending to be ignorant, which makes no sense.”

Ji Qingyan smiled, exuding grace and poise.

“Should I assume that you’re afraid of Lingyun Group’s rise, afraid of being left far behind, so you’ve come up with a way to sanction us in advance to maintain your pitiful stubbornness and pride?”

With just a few words, the atmosphere in the room grew even more oppressive.

If earlier, the looks directed at Ji Qingyan held a hint of mockery.

Now, they were filled with shock.

In their eyes, how could a Terran have the audacity to speak such words in front of them?

As the tension escalated, Wendevi’s eyes narrowed. He was forced to reassess this beautiful Huaxian woman.

He admitted that, from the beginning, he had not taken her seriously, thinking she was just another pretty face.

Now, it seemed she was far more formidable than he had imagined.

Wendevi shrugged and calmly said,

“I understand the reason for your frustration, but we need to approach this issue with a cool head.”

“Frustration?” Ji Qingyan smiled and said.

“Do you consider a smile to be frustration in your eyes?”

Ji Qingyan’s sudden shift in the conversation caught Wendby off guard. He hadn’t expected her to divert the topic to such a trivial matter.

“My apologies, I misspoke earlier. I can rephrase that.”

“No need. Since you’ve admitted your mistake, I won’t hold it against you.”

Ji Qingyan’s smile remained, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to shift slightly, giving her the upper hand.

Standing at the edge of the stage, Evans frowned repeatedly.

“This woman is very clever. She’s turning the situation around.”

On the surface, making Wendevi apologize over such a minor issue might seem inconsequential.

But in reality, Wendevi’s apology subtly shifted the dynamics between the two parties.

This subtle advantage was skillfully exploited by Ji Qingyan.

“I had originally planned to act after the reception, but it seems we’ll need to move earlier.”

Evans nodded. “This woman is no simple figure. Her abilities are as remarkable as her beauty. We should handle this ahead of time to avoid any unexpected developments.”

Halis turned and left, holding her phone with a displeased expression.

At the same time, Wendby stepped forward on the stage and said,

“I understand your opposition stems from the fact that Lingyun Group is also a lithography machine manufacturer. However, the semiconductor industry has hit a bottleneck. We need breakthroughs. It’s unethical to oppose this agreement just because it affects your company’s interests.”

“Breakthroughs?” Ji Qingyan said softly.

“As far as I know, you’re merely introducing new Ryzen and Ampere architectures. But how much improvement can these really bring to chips? You all know that very well. If you’re truly discussing this issue from the industry’s perspective, then I sincerely suggest using carbon-based chips. This would fundamentally solve the problem and bring much greater improvement, saving you all the trouble you’re currently going through.”

The people on stage looked uncomfortable.

Ji Qingyan’s remarks had hit them where it hurt.

These industry leaders knew that carbon-based chips outperformed silicon-based ones, but the technology had not yet reached full maturity.

“Ms. Ji, with all due respect, your statement shows a lack of understanding.”

Wendevi, sensing he had found a flaw in Ji Qingyan’s argument, regained his calm.

“At present, carbon-based chips exist only in theory. The technology is far from mature. If you’d like to discuss technical matters, perhaps you should send a professional instead.”

Wendevi’s words made the atmosphere in the room even more tense.

“That was rather harsh of Wendevi toward such a lovely lady,” said Bowen from Micron Storage.

“Completely expected,” Lee Yongchul from Samsung replied.

“Lingyun Group’s main product is lithography machines, making them ASML’s primary competitor. Wendevi is the most nervous among us. He will certainly look for ways to suppress them.”

“However, this woman is indeed impressive. For her to push Wendby to this point—I’ve never seen him act so ungentlemanly before.”

“True. Now we’ll see how she handles this,” Lee Yongchul said.

“I’m quite eager to find out. Only a woman like her could be worthy of someone like me.”

At that moment, all eyes were on Ji Qingyan.

How would this elegant, stunning woman respond to Wendevi’s sharp challenge?

Even Shen Tianzhuo, standing to the side, frowned repeatedly.

This was a tough question. Whether President Ji could handle it remained to be seen.

If she couldn’t counter this, Lingyun Group would be placed at a significant disadvantage.

Today’s situation would be impossible to turn around.

“Yes, I have a background in finance, so I am indeed an outsider in semiconductor technology. But for Wendevi to make such a statement only shows your lack of understanding.” Ji Qingyan spoke calmly and confidently.

“In this world, everything revolves around capital. Technology is merely a tool manipulated by capital. If you insist on discussing this from a technical standpoint, then we truly have no common ground. I suggest you have someone from ASML who understands commercial capital join the discussion, as none of us are here to listen to you talk about technology. Don’t you agree?”
