Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations Chapter 117 – 117 Invitation from the Review Committee

117 Invitation from the Review Committee

Academician Gao Xiang's offer was really generous, and his desire to groom Li Chengqian was also very sincere.

Even Li Chengqian felt very tempted.

After careful consideration, Li Chengqian still decided to turn down the offer.

He had the game cheat for the Master of All Professions game and needed unfettered freedom. Only then could he maximize the abilities of the game.

Also, he would only be safe with unfettered freedom.

Moreover, joining the Academy of Space Technology might expose the secret of the Game.

This made it impossible for him to join the Academy of Space Technology.

“Academician Gao, thank you for your high regard and trust.” Li Chengqian took a deep breath. He stood up and spoke very respectfully to Academician Gao Xiang.

“For some special reasons, I can't accept your invitation.”

“I'm sorry.” Li Chengqian's tone was very apologetic.

When Gao Xiang heard Li Chengqian's words, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and tried harder to persuade him. “Student Li Chengqian, don't be in a hurry to turn me down. There's still some time before the university entrance examination. Go back and think about it carefully.”

“If you ever decide to join the Academy of Space Technology, as long as I'm still around, you're always welcome.”

“If you finally still decide not to join the Academy, I will fully respect your decision.”

Lin Xiong was astonished, he looked at Li Chengqian in disbelief. Li Chengqian had actually turned down such a good offer!

“Perhaps Li Chengqian's ambition is not in scientific research, but in business. Even if that were so, it would help him open doors if he had experience under Academician Gao Xiang,… I don't understand what young people these days are thinking.”

“I'll find an opportunity to persuade him. It's a pity to give up such an opportunity. Moreover, with Teacher Gao's support, Li Chengqian's future path will be much easier.” Lin Xiong shook his head.

“Academician Gao, thank you so much!” Li Chengqian was touched.

“Kid, your only shortcoming is that you are too polite!” After scolding him teasingly, Academician Gao Xiang changed the topic to the Divine Dragon Optimization App. “I've communicated with Academician Lin Qu about the software review meeting for the App. The venue is in the conference room of the Software Research Institute of the Academy of Sciences. The meeting starts at 10am tomorrow.”

“Lin Xiong and I will accompany you tomorrow morning.”

“Alright, Academician Gao!” Li Chengqian nodded. His original purpose for coming to Dragon City was to participate in the software review meeting and get the Divine Dragon Optimization App included in the National Foundational Improvement Project. Things were finally back on track.

“I've already taken down Baidu and Tencent, two out of three internet giants .” Li Chengqian pondered silently. “Next, it's time to take down the phone manufacturers!”

In the CEO's office of the Heyme Company, the desperate Lei Che was considering his next step.

“This matter is going to be troublesome!”

Due to the announcement by the Cyberspace Administration Office, many users demanded that the installation restriction on the Divine Dragon Optimization App be lifted.

If the restriction was lifted, no one would buy new phones.

If the restriction was not lifted, users would be dissatisfied and their reputation would suffer.

Previously, in order to counter the Divine Dragon Optimization App, several mobile phone manufacturers had signed a strategic agreement. They would collectively restrict the installation of the App.

Under such circumstances, it was unclear if this strategic agreement could continue.

If one of them broke the agreement, it would have catastrophic consequences for the other manufacturers.

Lei Che was panicking a little about this situation.

“Chairman Lei, the Academy of Sciences has invited you to Dragon City to participate in a software review meeting.” At this moment, Secretary Xiaotian knocked on the door and entered, handing an invitation to Lei Che.

[Mr. Lei Che, you are sincerely invited to participate in the software review meeting held at 10am on 3 April in the conference room of the Software Research Institute of the Academy of Sciences. The details are as follows:

We look forward to your participation.

From: Software Research Institute, Academy of Sciences]

Lei Che read the invitation from cover to cover, he didn't see any other information except for the date and time.

“Chairman Lei, the top ten mobile phone manufacturers in the country have all received an invitation from the Academy of Sciences for this software review meeting.”

“The word out there is that the software to be reviewed this time will have a massive impact on the domestic phone industry.”

“The review meeting will be chaired by the Director of the Software Research Institute, Academician Lin Qu, and it will be broadcast live on national television.”

“I've asked around. The other manufacturers have also received invitations addressed to their chairman. Some have already decided to attend personally.”

After listening to the report, Lei Che frowned and said, “Do you know what software it is?”

“I don't know! The information is tightly embargoed. No news has been leaked. Everyone is guessing that the Academy of Sciences have secretly developed a mobile phone system.”

After hearing this, Lei Che analyzed the situation carefully for a while before making arrangements. “Since the chairman of the other major manufacturers are attending personally, I'll also do the same.”

“If it's a mobile phone system secretly developed by the Academy of Sciences, we have to support it.” Personally attending the meeting and expressing support were merely symbolic gestures. The form of support and the level of support would depend on what this phone system was about.

“Actually, if the mobile phone system secretly developed by the Academy of Sciences is successful, this would be great news for all phone manufacturers.” If the national television stations reported it live, it would definitely be able to shift the public's attention away from the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

The domestic mobile phone system had not been released yet. If it was good, a deal could be cut with the Academy of Sciences, the system could be pre-installed on new phones, and that would become a selling point for the new phones.

If it was not useful, it could be used as a system update and pushed to the old phones. The new phones would continue to run on the Android system.

That way, whether it was useful or not, the public's attention would be completely attracted by the domestic mobile phone system. People would soon lose interest in the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

“Set up a meeting with the chairmen of the other manufacturers and see if they have time to gather. We should discuss and arrive at a unified stand before we go to Dragon City to participate in the software review meeting.” It would be more effective and beneficial if all the manufacturers stood united.

“Alright, I'll contact them now.” The secretary walked out of Lei Che's office and started liaising with the other companies.

OPPO, Vivo, Huawei, and Meizu were all trying to get in touch with each other after receiving this invitation. They all wanted to know more details of this software review meeting.

However, the information was kept very confidential this time.

The information that everyone had obtained was incomplete and fragmented.

The software for the review was an operating system!

It was related to the mobile phone industry.

The software was very advanced and was ahead of the entire world.

The country attached great importance to it, and the national television stations will be covering the review of the software.

What was the company that developed the software? What was its name? What were the specific parameters? What was the purpose of inviting them to participate? However, there was no news at all.

However, everyone's thoughts were similar to Lei Che's. They all felt that the mobile phone system review meeting hosted by the Software Research Institute was a good thing for them.

It could shift the public's attention from the Divine Dragon Optimization App to the domestic mobile phone system.

Although the major manufacturers did not say it explicitly, in fact, everyone's thoughts were the same. They could not give Divine Dragon a chance to turn the tables on them. They had to curb the development of the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

Once the Divine Dragon Optimization App made a comeback, it would cause huge damage to the interests of the various manufacturers.

Therefore, after contacting Heyme Corporation, the major companies readily agreed to meet and unify their stand before the review meeting.

The meeting was quickly set to be held that very night at the Lihui Hotel, not far from the Software Research Institute.
