After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 262 Unless, we are all gods
Many things require a certain amount of wisdom to advance and resolve. Does Hao Cheng really not know that?

From an intellectual standpoint, it's impossible for him not to know; it's just that he never considers things from that perspective.

But once he opened up his perspective, he immediately understood everything and the logic behind it. He didn't need Gu Yufeng to come and explain it to him; just a few words with Ning Hui were enough for him to understand the bottom-up logic of everything.

Especially after Gu Yufeng specifically sought him out and sincerely explained things, Hao Cheng's lingering doubts gradually dissipated, though he couldn't say he suddenly understood.

"Nothing is easy to do, but it is precisely because of the difficulties that we must forge ahead!"

Seeing that Gu Yufeng hadn't even brought a secretary or assistant, but had come over alone and stood with him in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a disposable paper cup of tea, and had a heart-to-heart talk with him, Hao Cheng smiled and remarked.

Instead of echoing Hao Cheng's inspirational declaration, Gu Yufeng added, "Nothing from the outside world will become a difficulty for Baiju Technology. Do whatever you want with confidence."

"Of course, we can't really help with the technical difficulties. But we believe that no matter what the difficulties are, Baiju Technology will definitely be able to overcome them."

Hao Cheng smiled without saying a word, only staring at the white clouds and blue sky outside the window. After a long while, he finally spoke, saying only three words: "The sky is very high."

"The sky is high"—this is not just a simple phrase. If some martial arts novels contain the concept of "heroes breaking the law with martial arts," then everyone is worried that Baiju Technology might be breaking the law with its technology.

Putting aside everything else, America now talks about it all the time, but she rarely mentions China anymore, especially Baiju Technology. From constantly targeting it before, she now doesn't dare to say a single word about it.

Just like America, many of our own people also have similar concerns. This is even a point they constantly use to undermine Baiju Technology in various high-level closed-door meetings.

In fact, everyone knows what Baiju Technology is thinking, and Hao Cheng's emphasis on "climbing the peak of science and technology" has never changed.

……

"The sky is high, which means that whatever political stuff you're doing is child's play, and nobody cares, right? What do you think?"

"I trust Hao Cheng completely. There's no problem with him at all. What I'm worried about is the future."

"In the future? How long later? Fifty years? A hundred years? With so much to worry about, how can we possibly finish? If each generation can take care of the development of its own generation and allow us to stand at the top of the world, that would already be remarkable."

"If we absolutely have to guarantee what will happen in a technologically advanced future, then we'd have to be gods."

"Speaking of gods, Hao Cheng also said: What gods? If you strip away the outer garments of gods, inside, it is still technology."

"When we can't understand something, it's a miracle. But when we dissect everything, it becomes technology."

"Yes, some parasites need to be cleaned up too. Let's follow in Baiju Technology's footsteps and find a good excuse to deal with them all at once."

"You can't clean it all up; it just keeps coming back, like spring breezes blowing and it springs up again!"

"This time it's different. While this place is being cleared, Baiju Technology has taken over. If they want to regenerate, then Nanling will be in trouble."

Somewhere, two old men sang in harmony, and at that moment, the fates of many began to be determined, and many things took a different turn...

...And at this very moment, at Linzhou University.

The special admissions process for the first cohort of four-year doctoral students at the Institute for Frontier Science and Technology Exploration is in full swing.

Putting aside everything else, the appeal of a four-year doctoral program is far greater than that of a four-year undergraduate program.

Under normal circumstances, even a combined bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degree would take at least eight years. If you take the exams one level at a time, it would take at least ten years, and for medical studies it would take even longer, up to twelve years.

Here, after graduating from high school, it only takes four years, and while your classmates are just graduating with their bachelor's degrees, you will already have your doctoral degree.

"Do you think the assessment is extremely difficult? Is this trip a waste of time?"

The weather in Linzhou in May is already a bit warm, especially today. Even though it's only eight o'clock, the whole place feels like a steamer.

Under a tree by a lake on campus, whose name I don't know, two boys, each holding a bag in front of their chests, looked around at every plant and tree on campus like adorable children, while saying something with a hint of worry.

"Don't worry, we did a test before we came. Xiao Sha said that as long as we can reach the baseline without cheating, passing this test will not be a problem."

"I'm just afraid of what might happen!"

"What's the 'what if'? Besides, with your grades, even if you don't get in here, getting into a 985 university should be a piece of cake, right?"

"But my mom... by now even the chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs probably know that I'm going to the cutting-edge technology experimental class at Linzhou University. Sigh, never mind, I won't say anything more."

Fan Xiaofeng was very worried. He was originally very confident because Baiju Technology had opened up Xiaosha's pre-assessment test service to everyone in advance so that everyone could have an assessment of themselves.

As long as you don't cheat, your self-assessed score won't differ too much from the actual test score.

However, not having a significant difference doesn't mean there's no difference at all.

"I should have known better than to tell my mom about this!" Fan Xiaofeng said, somewhat speechless.

……

The camera shifts to various corners of the campus, where bustling crowds are gathering, a diverse and vibrant mix of people.

"Principal, what's going on here?" The admissions officer in the administration building was also completely baffled.

"The assessment actually began the moment they stepped into the campus," Cheng Jianye said with a mysterious smile. "Of course, it's not some old-fashioned character test."

"According to Xiao Sha's assessment procedures this time, we need a day to do this work. Actually, it's very simple. Xiao Sha just wants to see how these students who are participating in the assessment live on a daily basis."

"Wait a minute." The admissions director cautiously confirmed, "You mean, it's Xiao Sha who wants to take a look? And not President Hao?"
