---- Chapter 375 Franklin said, "Shall we go together when the timees?" Julia instinctively opened her mouth to refuse. "I don''t..." She was going to say she wasn''t sure if she''d have time then But that didn''t quite align with her usual demeanor. So before the word "don''t" fully left her lips, she changed course. sure," she said instead. Just as she was about to sit down on the sofa, her steps halted slightly when her eyesnded on a document on Franklin''s desk.
Noticing her gaze, Franklin added, "Thepany is also considering developing a newrge model. This is a research report on Cole''s programmingnguage and two of their recent in-house projects. They''vee up with some interesting things. You might learn a lot from reading it." As he spoke, he handed the document to her. In the past, Julia would''ve happily and eagerly epted it. ---- But now... Her face stiffened slightly.
still, with Franklin already handing it over, she had no choice but to take it. "Okay," she said. Then, as if something crossed her mind, she couldn''t help but speak again. "Isn''t it a bitte to start studying Cole now? By the time we develop our own version, the market might''ve already moved on. The pace of technological change is just so fast..." "That''s true," Franklin nodded.
"But the goal isn''t to replicate Cole''s work-it''s to extract the core technology that we can use, and innovate on that." ".. That makes sense." He continued, "Besides, Cole is advancing rapidly. But I don''t think everything they''ve done is short-term. Their programmingnguage, for instance-it took years for the market to fully recognize its value.
As for those two projects they''ve justunched, even with the current pace of technological progress, I''d say it would take at least three years for anotherpany to surpass them. So, no, studying them isn''t pointless." At this point, Franklin''s admiration for Cole''snguage and the ---- two projects was fully on disy. Julia''s heart sank a little more. Franklin truly admired people with talent. If he ever found out that Maggie was the one who developed Cole''s programmingnguage...
Or that the two new projects were hothunched after Maggie joined Cole... That meant, there was a strong possibility Maggie led the team behind those projects as well... If... If Franklin ever found out all of this- She turned her head slightly and looked at Franklin, who was already immersed in reading, the document still gripped tightly in her increasingly pale hands. That evening, Julia returned to the Brown family home for dinner. At the dinner table, the family had been chatting happily.
Then, the TV news suddenly cut to a segment about Cole. Julia paused, looked up-and saw it was about Cole''s coboration with Chambein Story. ---- The report featured an interview where Chambein expressed great satisfaction with the partnership. He said theirpany''s long-standing problems were resolved soon after the coboration began. Many overseas firms in the same sector were now reaching out to work with Cole as well...
The Lin and Sun families hadn''t had strong feelings about Cole before. But ever since Cole snatched the smart transportation project they had their eyes on, everyone in the family had grown to dislike them, Now, seeing that Cole had just taken over the transportation project and alreadynded another major deal-plus had more clients lining up-while their own techpanies and Wilson Tech were still struggling... Everyone at the table, including Logan, fell silent with heavy expressions.
Logan, already burdened bypany troubles,pletely lost his appetite. He rubbed his temples and quietly put down his knife and fork.
