Super God-Level Top Student

And so, this scene ensued.

Li Jian Gao couldn't help feeling frustrated whenever he thought about the afternoon's events.

He wasn't the type to spill his guts so easily, so why did he end up doing so unguardedly?

This only increased Li Jian Gao's admiration for Qiao Ze.

After all, throughout the whole afternoon, Qiao Ze was the only one who rendered Yu Hongwei speechless with just three sentences.

"I've seen you."

"You're impressive."

"But you really should curb that habit of talking too much."

Remembering the constipated look on Yu Hongwei's face when Qiao Ze delivered that third sentence, Li Jian Gao suddenly felt an urge to laugh, as he looked at the current scene.

To avoid actually bursting into laughter and disrupting the harmonious atmosphere, Li Jian Gao quickly said, "Alright, Mr. Yu, Mr. Su, Secretary Zhang, let's go upstairs and talk."

...

Group Wisdom Project Group Workshop.

When Su Lixing was sitting next to Yu Hongwei and looking at Qiao Ze across the table with his beloved daughter, he felt as if he were in a dream.

Qiao Ze seemed unchanged.

His face was still as calm as a still well.

He didn't show any of the emotions a young person should have after such great achievements, such as pride, excitement, or arrogance.

This made Su Lixing want to crack open Qiao Ze's head and see what was really inside!

His headstrong daughter was just the same.

Every once in a while she would make eye contact with him, playfully curling her lips, but most of the time her gaze stayed on Qiao Ze, unconcerned that there were strangers in the meeting room, not hiding the passion and deep love in her eyes.

Yu Hongwei was still talking nonstop at the meeting table.

"...Youwei Group has always been striving to build an intelligent world of interconnected things. Let me give you an inside scoop, by September at the latest this year, we will be launching a new generation of products. The biggest breakthrough is Star Flash Technology Nearlink. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this technology is far ahead of its time!"

"It's definitely a revolutionary, new-generation limitless transmission technology comprised of an SLB base access layer and an SLE low-power access, with its G-link peak exceeding 900M, T-link peak over 450M, reliability nearing one hundred percent, supporting 4096 users to connect simultaneously, and handling concurrent data for 80 users per millimeter."

"We have already developed a series of technical standards based on this technology, as well as testing certification and related ecosystem construction. There are things I can't mention right now, but I can give you a little hint; please keep it confidential for me. Youwei Group has already started forming the Star Flash Alliance based on this technology.

A number of companies are willing to join us in building a more stable communication chain."

"Now imagine, Star Flash combined with Qunzhi, if they could be promoted at the same time, what would that bring? Everyone, that would be multi-device cluster-style intelligent interaction! Intelligent interaction data could be synchronously exchanged between multiple devices, significantly extending the functionality of intelligent interactions."

"Here's a scenario I envision: when I don't feel like sitting at my desk, I can lie in bed, issue a command through my mobile phone, and the computer at my desk will directly provide the answer, which is then fed back to my mobile device. Of course, the interaction doesn't stop there.

By embedding the Qunzhi System, we can make search, service, and acquisition achieve a complete and unified ecosystem to truly realize intelligent interconnectivity."

...

Su Lixing was actually listening quite intently.

But had Qiao Ze not been sitting across from him, he could've been even more focused.

Every time Su Lixing looked at Qiao Ze, he noticed that the young man's attention wasn't focused at all.

Clearly, he had no interest in Yu Hongwei's monologue.

It seemed likely that his willingness to sit there was merely to give Li Jian Gao face.

Indeed, Su Lixing's assumption was correct, because just as Yu Hongwei finished a sentence and picked up his tea preparing to continue his speech, Qiao Ze took the initiative to speak.

"It's almost ten o'clock. I need to head back to the dorm now."

"Ah?" Everyone except Su Mucheng was somewhat taken aback.

Even though Su Lixing saw that Qiao Ze wasn't really there in spirit, he didn't expect him to want to leave.

At the very least, he should've waited for Yu Hongwei to discuss how they intended to cooperate, right?

"Right, we all go back to the dorms punctually at ten every day," Su Mucheng immediately chimed in to support him.

"Ahem, Qiao Ze, are you temporarily not planning to license the Qunzhi System?" Li Jian Gao asked.

Qiao Ze shook his head, frowning, and said, "No, but I don't want to deal with these things. Didn't you specifically bring Mr. Su here to handle this?"

```

"That... But after all, Qunzhi System is your project... your hard work, won't you participate in the decision-making?" Su Lixing swallowed subconsciously, suddenly realizing something.

Qiao Ze pressed his lips together, feeling somewhat annoyed.

It was nothing more than a framework similar to ChatGPT, and it couldn't even be considered very innovative. He didn't understand why these people valued it so much.

He had reiterated countless times that the real purpose of doing this project was just to publish a paper.

Yet, these people always regarded the by-products more important than the actual papers that could push progress forward.

Wasn't the mathematical tool he pioneered in the paper more valuable than this framework?!

"Just discuss it with Li and handle it accordingly. If I have to consider all these trivial issues every time a small achievement is made, it will seriously distract me. Li has told me before, if I were to communicate with others, someone would need to manage a lot of the cumbersome matters for me.

Naturally, dealing with by-products from the research process falls into this category of tedious matters and should be taken care of by those focused on grunt work. Moreover, I have no interest in how to license the corresponding algorithms or frameworks, or who uses them."

Qiao Ze seriously reiterated his thoughts again.

The living room fell silent all at once, and Yu Hongwei looked at Qiao Ze in astonishment.

He didn't know how to evaluate such a statement...

By-products? Grunt work?

If it weren't for Qiao Ze's calm demeanor and tone—so calm that what he said seemed perfectly justified—one might think he was boasting.

But there was not a hint of boastfulness to be felt.

Su Lixing stared at Qiao Ze for a long while before finally saying, "Qiao Ze, this is different from going out and making contacts. Technology licensing involves massive financial issues..."

"I'm not interested in money. The problem I want to solve requires building a Particle Collider around the sun, and then powering it with a Dyson sphere. Unfortunately, Earth's worth is not that high, so you all handle it entirely. You don't need to inform me about the final decision. Li, I'm leaving now."

Having said that, Qiao Ze stood up directly.

Almost at the same time, Su Mucheng sprang up from her chair, calling out, "Qiao Ze, shall we invite Chen Yiwen to leave with us?"

"Oh, sure."

"Then wait for me outside for a bit, I'm just going to grab my bag."

"Alright."

Su Lixing opened his mouth as if to stop Su Mucheng, but ultimately did not utter a sound, while Su Mucheng had already cheerfully dashed into the inner workshop, calling for Chen Yiwen.

"Mom, I'm heading back to the dormitory now. Professor Li, Zhang, Yu, goodbye."

Chen Yiwen bowed slightly to the three of them, a bit restrained, then followed behind Su Mucheng out of the workshop.

...

Stairwell.

To affirm the correctness of Qiao Ze's actions, Su Mucheng took the initiative to sigh, "Adults are so boring, especially my dad, utterly boring! It's always about money, money! People can't live with money alone, right? Qiao Ze."

Qiao Ze corrected, "It should be that their understanding is biased."

Chen Yiwen looked back at the partially closed door and, as usual, remained silent.

Well, that's good. Previously, these two were just a nuisance to their classmates.

Today, they finally started causing trouble for the big shots he had only seen in videos.

This even gave Chen Yiwen an oddly excited feeling.

...

Back in the room, the voices leaking through the door crack left the adults exchanging looks.

Especially Su Lixing...

His precious daughter...

Was she a cotton-padded coat leaking air?

"Cough, that... Mr. Yu, Mr. Su, according to the contract Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng had signed earlier, if the Qunzhi System project generates profits, they would split it in a 9:1 ratio... However, since Qiao Ze has given up the decision-making right, we might as well discuss it directly. Based on my understanding of Qiao Ze, he indeed doesn't want to bother with these issues.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

If you do come to an agreement, I will have Qiao Ze's mother come over, and it won't affect anything," Li Jian Gao said helplessly.
