Chapter: 3932
As she spoke, Kelly Weston put away her smile, her expression carrying a tinge of nostalgia, admiration, and even sadness: "Her name is An Cheng Qi. Thirty years ago, she was known as the Queen of Silicon Valley Investments. I don't know if you've heard of her, but it's not surprising if you haven't since she left America nearly twenty years ago by then."
Fei Ke Xing's entire person went blank with shock!
She exclaimed: "An Cheng Qi... how could I not have known An Cheng Qi? She is..."
She stopped for a moment, then quickly added: "She is our pride among countless Chinese people!"
In reality, Fei Ke Xing naturally wanted to say that An Cheng Qi was their idol, the spiritual leader who inspired all Stanford alumni to strive for greatness, just like a beacon guiding them.
At Stanford, no one didn't know An Cheng Qi, even though she had been gone twenty years. Stanford University still has her legacy everywhere.
She is the highest-ranking female alumnus in Stanford's Hall of Fame, supporting numerous startup projects in Silicon Valley and beyond, many of which have now grown into massive international companies in the fields of internet and technology.
In Stanford, there are roads, classrooms, and scholarships named after her.
At the same time, she was also recognized by all Asian alumni at Stanford as the embodiment of the Chinese spirit.
Although Pei Ke Xin had never met An Cheng Qi, she had heard countless stories about her since childhood.
Therefore, from a young age, she regarded An Cheng Qi as her greatest idol in life.
It was because she was influenced by An Cheng Qi that she got into Stanford.
When she arrived at Stanford and learned more about An Cheng Qi's achievements, not only was she amazed, but also deeply moved to tears.
In the depths of her heart, she even felt that if her future accomplishments were one-third of what An Cheng Qi had achieved back then, she would not have lived in vain.
But she never thought that this first-time meeting with an interior designer would turn out to be someone who was familiar with An Cheng Qi!
As a result, she stood there stiffly like a wooden chicken, her heart racing with excitement.
At this moment, Xiao Chu Ran was standing beside her, looking dazed.
This was the first time she had heard of An Cheng Qi's name in her life.
She didn't know what these three characters represented, nor did she know how they were connected to herself; she just felt that this name was as melodious as a poem......
Kaylee West couldn't believe it - Fiona Xin was so young and yet had such a deep impression of An Cheng Qi.
And her expression seemed to indicate that she still held An Cheng Qi in high esteem.
This made her feel a sense of satisfaction, unable to help but sigh: "So many years have passed, and there are still so many people remembering her. It's really too good......"
Fiona Xin nodded thoughtfully and quickly asked: "Kaylee, how did you get to know An Cheng Qi?"
Kaylee West smiled wistfully and said: "When I first entered the design circle, my progress was not smooth. Although I designed high-end private residences, high-end clients looked down on me as a novice designer. And in that era of American society, women often faced discrimination in many work positions, including the design industry......"
She let out a sigh and spoke with gratitude: "Initially, I was frugal and saved up 5,000 dollars to hold my first solo design exhibition in Brooklyn, New York. However, that exhibition was almost completely ignored by visitors; occasionally someone would come in, usually just shaking their head and walking away. Until An Cheng Qi happened to walk in......"
