Originally, it was a two-way choice problem.
Just as Qiao Yu got into the elevator with him, Chen Zhuoyang, who hadn’t spoken during the eting, couldn’t help but say, "Younger Brother, I think there’s a lot of potential in what they’re saying."
Qiao Yu glanced at Zheng Xiweng, who had been silently following him, and then started to explain to Chen Zhuoyang.
His voice wasn’t loud, but the two people beside him definitely heard it.
"Listen to them boast! Don’t you have any idea how difficult this project is? Is it sothing they can manage with their current funding?"
Chen Zhuoyang imdiately fell silent.
His earlier comnt was based on his unlimited confidence in Qiao Yu. Since Qiao Yu said it was difficult, the difficulty was likely imnse.
However, after they got off the elevator, Qiao Yu added, "But on second thought, this project really does have potential. After all, if we could use supercomputers to simulate quantum computing, the security of financial systems could be a generation ahead of others.
Moreover, if this theory is developed, technology in simulation calculations could advance rapidly, greatly benefiting research in new materials, aerospace technology, such as moon landings!
People have already started working on this research, and if they succeed, we would fall behind. That would not be good news."
Chen Zhuoyang frowned and said, "But, Younger Brother, didn’t you just say their project is very difficult and basically impossible to succeed?"
Qiao Yu gave Chen Zhuoyang a stern look and said, "When did I say it was basically impossible? I said with their current funding, it’s difficult. But with Old Xue joining and our Generalized Modal Axiomatic System’s help, it might just work out?
And difficulties make things challenging! Isn’t the Riemann Conjecture difficult? Didn’t I solve it? No way, remind to apply for this project when we get back; we must strive to complete it before they do."
"Huh?" Chen Zhuoyang was stunned and instinctively asked, "Then if you plan to do it, why not collaborate with them?"
Qiao Yu blinked, unable to tell if Chen Zhuoyang was intentionally playing along with him or genuinely didn’t understand.
So he said earnestly, "For such an important project, if I am confident our own team can accomplish it, why should we collaborate with others?
Think of it this way: I introduce Old Xue to them, and if they really get along, it proves our Generalized Modal Axiomatic System is useful.
That way, I can easily get updates on their research progress from Old Xue, and being more familiar with this system than they are, wouldn’t our research progress definitely be faster?"
Chen Zhuoyang was dumbfounded and instinctively murmured, "Younger Brother, this doesn’t seem very fair, does it?"
Qiao Yu sternly retorted, "What do you an not fair? What are you thinking, Senior Brother Chen? They are just trying to fool people with a PPT, what’s unfair about that?
You should understand I’m giving them a lesson, that trying to fool rising stars in academia with just a PPT is not only unethical but risky."
Realizing that the younger brother was joking again, Chen Zhuoyang was speechless; after a mont, he said, "Uh... it seems like they didn’t even use a PPT."
"See, I told you they weren’t serious, not even willing to spend a little ti making a PPT to fool rising stars in academia. Don’t worry about this, just remind when we get back.
Where are we supposed to go this morning? Right, has Director Tian finished his work? Why does it feel like Director Tian is busier than now? That doesn’t make any sense!"
