"Teacher." Ceylon knelt on the ground, with a gleam of anticipation in his tearful eyes. "I analyzed everything before I took action. I couldn't possibly harm Bingshi by doing that, because I definitely violated your instructions. It wouldn't harm Xiosta either. Xiosta's energy was previously controlled by the Commercial Federation. Even if you failed in Shelagh, it would only make Xiosta return to being controlled by the Commercial Federation."

"Teacher, I know that is a despicable thing and should not be done, but no matter how I infer, the result is that no one will suffer losses. Why don't I take a gamble? As long as I win, you can..."

"Enough, enough..." Miss White Wolf's voice trembled. She couldn't listen any longer. Of course, no party needed to bear the cost of failure, except Ceylon himself.

She couldn't say a word of accusation. She stroked Ceylon's long hair and said with heartache and earnestness: "Ceylon, don't be so stupid. Think about yourself."

Ceylon grabbed White Wolf's hand, put it on his cheek, and murmured:

"Teacher, Ceylon is the daughter of Mayor Xiosta and grew up in the midst of negotiations between various countries. Ceylon can see that you are different and that you are doing great things. Ceylon wants to help you all the time and do her best to see where you will go. This is Ceylon's only dream."

Miss Bailang was silent for a long time, her eyes flickering and struggling. Finally, she calmed down again and gently rubbed Xilan's cheek with her right hand: "Do you need me to communicate with Miss Lin? Compensate for their losses."

"No, in her opinion, you don't know about this. She is just helping me."

White Wolf said gently: "Ceylon is really a big shot. I definitely can't do this if it's me."

Xilan widened his eyes and said cautiously: "Teacher, are you not going to pursue this?"

White Wolf shook his head: "No, no matter what the reason is, a mistake is a mistake."

"Eh~" Ceylon nodded a little fearfully, "I, I understand."

"Take out that instruction document. You always carry it with you, right?"

"Yes." Ceylon obediently took out the document from his arms.

Miss White Wolf took the document, sighed, stood up, and a flame ignited in her hand, instantly burning what she had written into ashes.

Ceylon knelt on the ground and turned to look at the white wolf. The moment she saw the fire, she stretched out her arms in panic: "Miss Olicia."

White Wolf threw the ashes into the trash can and said calmly:

"Now, we are complicit."

Chapter 2023 Institute Affairs 08-29-12 00:01:

After talking about Xiosta's matter, Miss White Wolf urged Ceylon to go to rest quickly. She also returned to her room and looked at Mayor Hermann's letter alone, feeling depressed.

Finally, she put the letter away, lay on the bed, thought about Ceylon's words with mixed feelings, and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, Miss White Wolf got up before dawn and started a busy day.

She first found Alyosha, introduced the basic situation of the company to her, and arranged future work tasks.

The second thing was to discuss Shelag's affairs with Mr. Mu. The Kalan trade needed the Marquis's people to connect with it. When the Marquis was away, Mr. Mu would be in charge of it.

The third ones found were Razer and Franka. White Wolf directly revealed the plan to reorganize the security department in the future and expressed the hope to extend the contract with Black Steel International.

What she didn't expect was that Razer and Franka actually decided on the spot to join Ice Stone. There was no need to discuss the extension issue now. Both parties planned to sign a new company employment contract after half of the Black Steel contract had been fulfilled.

The fourth thing is Miss Aurora’s arrangement.

Since Magellan and Mel's expedition team was still in the tundra and had not returned, White Wolf approached this extreme environment engineer and authorized the other company's building inspection rights, allowing Aurora Planning Company to rationalize expansion and environmental response matters.

After finishing various trivial and important matters, it was ten o'clock in the morning. Miss Bailang went to the office of the institute with the documents that had not been processed yesterday.

The first thing she did when she arrived at the research institute was not work. She threw the documents on the table, then ran excitedly to the room where Ceylon and others were busy, waving and greeting everyone.

"Hi, I'm back."

The people who were busy among the books relaxed, turned their heads, and replied happily:

"Good morning, I finally see Miss Olicia."

"Ms. Olicia, have you lost weight again?"

"We need another stool for Miss Olicia!"

"Put it here, here I am."

Miss White Wolf stood at the door and cheerily said to everyone, "Someone, help me carry this stuff."

"I." Miss Ina's eyes lit up and she stood up in an instant.

The box is White Wolf's shopping box. Every time she goes to Koros City, as long as she has free time, Miss White Wolf will sweep various stores and buy random items such as plush toys, snacks, tea, magazines and novels, wood carvings, etc.

Everyone in the institute would eat snacks and take the small items they wanted as if they were on a treasure hunt. This has almost become a regular activity in the office, and now everyone has a lot of small gifts from Miss White Wolf.

After the supply box was carried to the studio, Ceylon had already moved a chair and placed it next to her, between her and Miss Ayafara.

Miss Aina pouted: "Ceylon is so cunning. He put Miss Olicia's chair next to you while I was carrying something."

Ceylon said without giving in: "You can't say that. This position is also next to Ayafara, right, Miss Ayafara?"

"Yeah." Eyjafjalla, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, blinked and nodded.

"Oh, I also want to sit next to Miss Olicia." Ina said with tears in her eyes.

Tianhuo took a new pen from the gift box and suggested cheerfully, "See if they are willing to switch places with you."

"No change." Ceylon narrowed his eyes and said firmly.

"I, my things are all here." Miss Eyjafjalla blushed, hugged the pink plush sheep tightly in her arms, and sat motionless on the chair.

Miss White Wolf sat down happily and noticed Eyjafjalla's plush sheep doll. It looked like a big cute pillow and was soft and comfortable. She suddenly felt envious and wanted to hug it and see for herself.

"Ayjafjalla, can you let me hug your plush sheep?" she asked expectantly.

"Don't give it to her." Miss Tianhuo, deputy director of the institute, deliberately said, "Miss Olicia is Rupert, your lamb will be eaten."

"Right, right." Ina fanned the flames, "It's only natural for the wolf to eat the lamb, Miss Eyjafjalla. If we just switch places, you'll be safe."

"No change." Eyjafjalla was firm this time and stuffed the plush sheep into the white wolf's arms.

Miss White Wolf ignored the instigation of Tianhuo and others. She liked Eyjafjalla's plush lamb very much, and she liked it even more when she held it in her arms and felt warm.

"Where did you buy it? I want one too."

"Xista." Ceylon interrupted, "Miss Olicia, come with me to Xista, and you can have as many souvenirs as you want."

"Ms. Olivia, don't listen to her. Victoria also has such a doll. We can go to Victoria..."

Ayafara looked at the people bickering in the research institute, a warm smile appeared on her cheeks, and she whispered: "I always feel that everyone is happy when Miss Olicia comes back."

After everyone had finished arguing, they got down to business under the leadership of Miss White Wolf.

As the person in charge of the energy conference, Ceylan took the lead in reporting the basic content and results of the conference, and other members of the institute supplemented Ceylan's report.

Looking at the pile of manuscripts, Bai Lang concluded: "In other words, our main task now is to deal with these conference documents, right?"

"That's right." Tianhuo said, "The proceedings of academic conferences are indispensable. I have read through the conference papers we collected, and there are a lot of high-quality manuscripts."

Ceylon nodded. "It may be because there has never been a large-scale conference centered on energy before. Many academic experts were invited to the conference. In addition, Longmen made a public statement. All these factors contributed to the high level of the participants."

"We also found a lot of ready-made research ideas from these papers." Aina said with a strange look on her face, "I feel embarrassed, as if I am peeping at other people's achievements. Hmm, is this considered... unethical in academic ethics?"

Bai Lang shook his head. "Since it is an academic paper submitted, the author is naturally prepared to be read or questioned by others. We are just the first to get in touch with it because of the convenience of the conference affairs team."

She confirmed again: "Do you all think that the level of the conference papers is very high?"

"I have attended many academic conferences before," Tianhuo said. "Compared with them, the overall level of the papers in this conference is among the best."

Eyjafjalla also agreed with Tianhuo's words. Her new research project was summarized from these papers.

Miss White Wolf nodded thoughtfully, twisting her chin with her thumb and index finger, looking at the papers on the table and thinking for a while: "If that's the case, why do we only compile a collection of papers?"

She raised her head and looked around at the confused crowd: "What do you think? Can we use this as an opportunity to establish a top academic journal on energy?"

Chapter 2023 Academic Journals 08-30-12 00:04:

After Miss White Wolf finished speaking, the office fell into an eerie silence.

The position of academic journals among researchers is too important and too special.

In the Terran countries, one of the core indicators for evaluating the level of researchers is academic papers. When scholars introduce their titles, they often list all the papers they have published. These papers are important credentials for job applications and obtaining research funds.

Although everyone in the Ice Stone Research Institute has different backgrounds, they are all in the circle of scientific researchers. They certainly understand the importance of papers and know that many scholars have taken great pains to publish papers, even including themselves in the past.

No matter how high their research level is, they are always rule followers. Becoming rule makers is something completely different and unimaginable.

This is what makes Miss Olivia special, Ceylon thought secretly.

Her eyes were shining as she stared at the white wolf's cheek without blinking. She was more convinced in her heart that she must seize every tiny opportunity and absolutely, absolutely not let herself regret it for the rest of her life.

Tianhuo, the deputy director of the institute, was shocked, but a look of enthusiasm gradually emerged on his face: "Okay, it seems to be possible."

She quickly lowered her head again, frowning, and said nervously while trying to think: "But there are some problems, it's very troublesome, there are many things to consider, we are holding an academic conference, and academic journals are of another nature..."

Miss White Wolf calmly picked up the pen and drew a circle on the notebook that Ceylon handed over. She then drew another small circle inside the circle as a subset:

"The conference proceedings are compiled as normal. At the same time, we have selected the articles with the highest quality and the most cutting-edge content, compiled them and published them in the journal. This is the first issue of the journal. We will publicly collect the subsequent papers."

Tianhuo nodded excitedly: "It's very feasible. What should our journal be named?"

Miss White Wolf turned the page of her notebook and wrote down her thoughts:

"In order to be recognized, Icestone must understand its own positioning and focus on its most specialized field, but at the same time it should not be too narrow, so as not to miss excellent manuscripts. After comprehensive consideration, I think it is better to name it directly as ENERGY. The journal will include all high-quality articles related to energy, mainly Origin Stone Energy, covering research projects such as energy power systems, thermodynamic engineering, and traditional energy."

Miss Ceylon reminded, "There is another important question: how do we choose the editor-in-chief of the journal?"

"Yes." Tianhuo nodded vigorously. "The editor-in-chief is very important. When scholars evaluate the quality of a journal, they usually give priority to the editor-in-chief."

This is indeed a bit troublesome, Miss White Wolf thought. If she wanted to control the journal in her own hands, she would of course let someone from Bingshi be the editor-in-chief.

Although Miss Ayafara is very famous, she is a typical scientific research talent and I am afraid she will not be able to distract herself to do this.

In addition, Ayyafalla is too young and may be questioned for her lack of experience. After all, the editors-in-chief of existing academic journals are basically senior professors and researchers in universities.

In terms of personal expertise, Miss Ceylon is definitely the most suitable. She is a top-notch model student, has published many theoretical papers, and has compiled textbooks with Professor Herzog.

Ceylon and Eyjafjallajokull have the same problem. No, everyone in the institute has the same problem. The academic community tends to distrust young people, and this is a situation that is difficult to reverse in a short period of time.

Doesn't that mean there isn't a suitable ice stone at all?

Uh, wait.

Miss White Wolf had a strange look on her face, and suddenly thought of a strange possibility that had been missed - Farina.

At the energy conference, Ceylon attributed the greatest contribution to the ice stone energy core to Farina. Due to various coincidences, this name caused a huge wave in the academic community.

For ordinary researchers, they only know that Farina is a core member of Ice Stone and has taken the lead in solving major problems in the energy industry, but they have never seen this person and of course it is impossible for them to know her real age.

The only external news related to Farina are two: the speech from the president of Cast Iron City Polytechnic University and the support from Mr. Blood, a giant in the medical field.

If I use this name...

Miss Tianhuo thought for a long time, then shook her head with a sad face: "Miss Olicia, considering the situation in the academic world, none of us are very suitable."

"I think so too." Xilan crossed out the names on his notes one by one. "This kind of candidate is not only based on scientific research level, but also reputation and qualifications."

"In other words, it has to be a middle-aged person, preferably an old man." Miss Ina revealed the secret.

Miss White Wolf saw that everyone was undecided, so she told them her plan: "Ahem, in that case, let Farina do it."

"Farina?!"

"Yes, Ceylon let the secret slip at the beginning, so we can't hide it anymore. People outside don't know what Farina is like, so we can use her as an 'old man'."

Miss Ceylon laughed secretly.

Bai Lang glanced at Ceylon. She was still thinking about the other party's nonsense talk in the meeting. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a good thing.

"Ahem, in many ways, the identity of Farina is more suitable. Moreover, because it is fictional, there are more possibilities."

"I support it!" Aina clapped her hands happily, "It should be Editor-in-Chief Farina."

"It's a bit unbelievable, but I think this plan is good." Tianhuo also expressed his opinion.

"Farina alone is definitely not enough." White Wolf continued to think, "I plan to add the title of honorary editor-in-chief, which means that she doesn't do anything but comes here to support the occasion."

"Professor Herzog." Ceylon said a name with a smile.

"Of course it has to be him, and the editorial board members must also be carefully selected. Before publication, the article must be sent to some of the editorial board members for review."

"My mentor can," Miss Eyjafjalla said, raising her hand.

"My mentor can do it too." Miss Aina raised her hand like Eyjafjalla.

“This requires everyone to mobilize their connections. In addition, in addition to the deputy editor-in-chief, I hope that other people in the institute will also join the editorial board.”

"Will the deputy editor choose between us?" Miss Ayafara asked fearfully.

"Well, Farina can't do such a thing, so the deputy editor-in-chief is the de facto editor-in-chief."
