Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Lu Zhou still didn’t know how to use the Debris No.2, but fortunately, he had some clue about its origin.

Even though there was no way to crack its secrets, he believed that after seeing his next Void Memory, he should be able to obtain the key to open this “treasure chest”.

Lu Zhou put this unsolvable problem aside. He placed his focus back to academia.

Compared to Riemann’s hypothesis, the theory of unified algebra and geometry wasn’t actually as difficult as imagined.

Even though this was more groundbreaking than Riemann’s hypothesis, in fact, it didn’t require a groundbreaking mathematical tool to solve. It didn’t even require too much creativity.

What it required was the ability to rely on logic to summarize existing knowledge, tools, and methods, to be able to thread the needle.

That sounded a bit abstract.

But compared to Riemann’s hypothesis, where the top of the mountain couldn’t be seen at all, the peak of this research project’s mountain was visible. There was even a road leading to the top of the mountain.

In fact, when he was researching Riemann’s hypothesis, he already had a blueprint outline in his heart. He was the closest person to the top of the mountain.

After all, the research on Riemann’s hypothesis already made him climb up half of the mountain.

For now, he was the most likely person on the planet to complete this project.

At the same time, his students could also feel useful by contributing to this research project.

Riemann’s hypothesis required a genius brain and a talented mind, but this research project could be divided into sub-projects and different categories, things that required large amounts of manpower…

Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

Dean’s office.

Director Li came here from Beijing for a business trip. He sat down on the sofa and smiled at Lu Zhou.

“… Speaking of which, I forgot to tell you something.”

“What’s up?”

“Just a few days ago, the Russians sent a diplomatic thank you letter expressing their gratitude, and they specifically mentioned your name.”

Lu Zhou hesitated and asked curiously, “… Thank you letter?”

“Yeah, didn’t you visit the Helios nuclear power plant a while ago and found a big problem in their power grid system?”

Oh yeah, I nearly forgot about that.

“It’s just a coincidence.” Lu Zhou smiled and suddenly realized something. He said, “That diplomatic letter… isn’t released to the public, right?”

Director Li instantly knew what Lu Zhou was talking about. He patted his leg and smiled. “This isn’t a Ministry of Foreign Affairs conference, of course it’s not open to the public. We have also asked the other party to keep this a secret, for your safety.”

Lu Zhou nodded.

Even though he wasn’t particularly worried, it was better to be safe.

Of course, Lu Zhou knew that even if this wasn’t released to the public, the Americans probably could have deduced what had happened.

Director Li: “Speaking of which, there’s something else.”

Lu Zhou said, “What?”

After taking a sip of tea and moistening his throat, Director Li put on a serious face and continued, “That accident wasn’t an accident. An intelligence officer named Maksim… Of course, I don’t know if that is his real name. Basically, the intelligence provided to us by the Russians shows that it was probably a premeditated attack. The person who planned this attack tried to implant a virus in the St. Petersburg regional power grid system. The nuclear core overloaded and ignition failed. This was also an attack on you.”

“Me?”

“Yes!” Director Li nodded and said seriously, “There are enough pieces of evidence to support that at least half of the motive behind this is toward you.

“However, the people behind this attack underestimated the safety features of our fusion machine.

“So far, the Unified Energy System of Russia is cooperating with the security bureau to conduct investigations… I don’t know the specifics since the State Administration for National Defense isn’t responsible for this.”

Lu Zhou didn’t expect to hear something like this.

Lu Zhou suddenly sighed and said, “What a mess, maybe I won’t attend any conferences in the future.”

Director Li smiled and said, “Don’t do that, if it is necessary to attend, you should go, just be careful. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. Also, the times have changed, we have the upper hand in the international field. Those that want to attack us, only dare to do so in the shadows.”

Director Li put down the teacup and stood up.

“Okay, I have some work to do, so I won’t waste any more of your time. If you need anything, call me.”

Lu Zhou nodded and stood up.

“Take care.”

Lu Zhou sent Director Li off and was about to go back to his office. However, he saw Professor Wu Tianqun from the carbon-based chips research institute walking toward him.

This old professor’s face was as bright as a tomato. He immediately walked up to Lu Zhou and spoke.

“Good news!”

Lu Zhou could tell this professor had something to say.

There was only one thing from the carbon-based chip laboratory that would be considered good news.

However, Lu Zhou still cautiously asked, “… What good news?”

Professor Wu Tianqun said exactly what Lu Zhou had guessed.

Professor Wu Tianqun spoke with energy.

“A commercial standard sample of the Dragon One chip!

“We did it!”
