1977: It all started with a wrong love

Chapter 103 Trump Card
I waited until there was no one around, and the only people left were Lao Zhang, Senior Hua, and Wang Fang.

Senior Hua then asked quietly, "Xiao Lu, do you have a grudge against Liu Chuanzi?"

"He doesn't deserve it."

"what?"

"He is just an opportunist. He is not worthy of having a grudge against me, let alone being hated by me. I just want to destroy him!"

Faced with Lu Yifan's frank response.

Hua Qiuying couldn't help but feel frightened.

Lao Zhang and Wang Fang were also shocked as they listened to what happened.

Senior Hua sighed, "But you can't bet your reputation and future on such a bet!"

Lao Zhang also said: "To be honest, my classmates and I have thought about the Chinese character input method for a while, but when we really started, we realized how terrifyingly complex the system engineering was. Let alone just one month, if you were given a year or two, or even three to five years, it would be considered quite amazing if you could come up with results..."

Wang Fang, however, flattered him: "Student Lu is confident that he can get it done in a month. Why don't you believe him? Especially you, Yingying. You should unconditionally believe that Student Lu can accomplish it!"

"Wang Fang, shut up!"

Senior Hua frowned, "Now that things have come to this, Xiao Lu, what are your rules? If you need any help, just let me know..."

"I know what you want to ask me, seniors. Yes, I was a little impulsive, but some things involve major issues of principle, like the bullshit argument about technological innovation and the advantage of the mother tongue mentioned by Mr. Liu. Don't think that such arguments are harmless. A lie repeated a thousand times may become the truth. After hearing too much of such brainless arguments, deep in your hearts, you will inevitably develop a feeling of cultural insecurity..."

"Hey, Xiao Lu, you don't have to tell us these great truths anymore!
Tell me, how did you plan to complete the Chinese character input method within a month? What principles did you have in mind? Have you been thinking about this problem for a long time?
If a month isn't enough...

Let’s publicize it and change it to three months!
You don’t have to worry about changing the deadline, I will definitely solve it for you satisfactorily!

The most important thing now is,
Since you have made a bet in public, we cannot neglect this bet. Otherwise, no matter how harshly you criticize that Liu guy, it will all be in vain in the end..."

A conflict occurred at the science debate event.

The news soon reached the ears of the principal of Yanqing Second School.

"What kind of satellite is this Lu Yifan working on? Why would he go after Liugong from the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences? And in order to defeat others, he actually put a huge problem on his head. He really doesn't know the ins and outs of scientific research and innovation work!!"

"Alright, Lao Zhou, stop complaining about all this. It's already happened. The question is how should we deal with it? Should we just sit back and do nothing and let the situation escalate? Or should we, the school, quickly try to control it and get the students to stop dwelling on this topic..."

"Old Liu, you are totally wrong.

Our school should never think of covering students' mouths and stopping them from discussing this matter.

I think we should actively guide them.

Let the teachers and students in school discuss scientific and technological innovation and the advantages of their mother tongue.

After some in-depth discussions, I feel that what Xiao Lu said makes a lot of sense. Thinking more deeply, this is indeed the argument of the advantage of the mother tongue that only appears when there is a lack of cultural confidence..."

"Old Zhou, what you mean is that we should only focus on discussing the argument of whether or not the mother tongue is superior, but avoid talking about the problem of Mr. Lu solving the Chinese character input method solution within a month?"

"Let's just do this for now, during this period of caution!"

"You old fox, you are just hoping that Xiao Lu can come up with a perfect solution for Chinese character input method within a month!"

"Why, don't you, Liu, think so?"

"Ha, of course we have to think in the best possible way. If classmate Lu can really accomplish this, then we can boldly implement the super cross-school pilot project of Yanqing Second School! And if this thing really succeeds, I think the Institute of Computing Technology, hehe..."

The same news was also quickly spread to the Institute of Computing Technology. When the leaders of the institute heard that Liu Chuanzi had caused such a trouble in the school, they were all terrified.

In particular, Liu Chuanzi was criticized by students for being a Western worshiper and a natural soft-skulled person, and for his arguments about technological innovation and the advantages of being a native English speaker...

This means that the flood has passed.

Otherwise, these big hats will be put on you.

It's not just Liu Chuanzi who needs to be criticized.

The entire computing institute,

They will even be considered to have problems with awareness!

"Liu Chuanzi, look at the good things you have done. We asked you to go to Yanqing Second School to lead a scientific debate among students, but how did you cause such a big thing? You are making a serious mistake, do you know that?" Director Lin called Liu Chuanzi directly into the office and criticized him harshly without any reason.

Liu Chuanzi felt very wronged.

"Director Lin, things are really not what you imagined!
I was just, at a very normal pace, sharing with students some of my experiences in scientific research. I admit that I overemphasized things like scientific research innovation and the advantages of being a native English speaker. But the thing is, weren't I stating the most realistic truth?
Let students understand the truth about cutting-edge science and technology.

It's better than having a bunch of fancy things to deceive them and make them give up any illusions early. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Then you shouldn't have made a bet with someone that you could come up with a perfect solution for the Chinese character input method within a month. Do you know what you are doing?"

Liu Chuanzi felt even more aggrieved.
"Captain Lin, I swear to God, it was the kid surnamed Lu who repeatedly mentioned the bet, but I never agreed to it. The kid surnamed Lu is ignorant of the world, so how could I mess around with him? What kind of person would I be then?"

Liu Chuanzi told Lin exactly what happened in the school.

He was honest enough this time.

There is not a single trick of exaggerating or changing the wording.

Even at the end, he brought up the suspicion that Lu Yifan had inexplicable malice towards him.

After listening to this, Lin frowned.

It was so strange that two people who had never met before met for the first time. While one of them was interested in making friends, the other wanted to kill the other person and was determined to destroy him.

What is going on here?
Could it be that Liu Chuanzi went to Hong Kong several times and did some tricks in private...

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

That matter was known to heaven and earth. Liu Chuanzi had carefully done some personal things for him, and it was not anything illegal. There was no reason for anyone to retaliate against Liu Chuanzi because of this.

"Chuanzi, then tell me, can that guy surnamed Lu really solve the Chinese character input method problem in a month?"

Lin Suo asked without giving up.

These words irritated Liu Chuanzi so much that his eyelids twitched, and he wanted to say that it was absolutely impossible.

However, Lu Yifan made such a solemn promise to take the initiative to make a bet, and even threatened him in public, just to make him leave the Institute of Computing Technology and leave this industry forever...

Unless the guy named Lu is really a lunatic.

Otherwise, who the hell would joke about something like this...
