He Lingfeng was taken away by Professor Liu and Professor Gao to attend a computer conference.
The other professors at the conference thought the child was their grandson. They didn't expect that he could answer several questions they asked. They heard that He Lingfeng could even write code by himself.
Everyone was skeptical and tested him on the spot. He Lingfeng, truly worthy of being personally guided by Professor Liu, answered quickly and well.
Suddenly, everyone was shocked. How could a child of just a few years old understand so much?
People became interested. One by one, the big shots all gathered around He Lingfeng. Some tested him, while others taught him.
Computers are an emerging industry, and it's not that the older you are, the better you are at it. On the contrary, some theories from young people shine brightly in the field of computers.
They had never seen such a young genius in their lives.
They couldn't help but gather around Professor Liu: "Hey, where did you find such a good seedling?"
Professor Liu laughed: "It's a long story."
"No worries, take your time!"
So Professor Liu recounted how he discovered He Lingfeng, from beginning to end.
The people around became more and more shocked as they listened. To think that they discovered a genius at a Third-tier university because of one audited class.
Upon further inquiry, they learned that He Lingfeng had already completed the entire high school curriculum and had started learning calculus at the university level.
He Lingfeng, this little kid, spoke seriously about computer theory, code writing, and so on with a straight face.
It really gave them a sense of bewilderment.
Though it's said that the rear waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves forward, these rear waves were too fierce; the front waves could hardly take it.
Professor Gao added from the side: "This is nothing, they have a few more good seedlings there." This included the local genius Zhao Jie.
The people around brightened their eyes when they heard this: "This kindergarten is full of hidden talents, it's quite something."
They immediately wanted to follow up and inquire.
Professor Liu said: "Let's have the meeting first. Afterwards, I'll take you to have a look. That kindergarten is indeed excellent!"
They were from out of town.
Many hadn't heard of Starry Sky Kindergarten.
So Professor Liu specifically called Shen Wei.
Shen Wei welcomed these doctoral supervisors with open arms.
She invited them to give a few public lectures.
The lecture fees would be paid according to market rates.
So everyone came over excitedly.
They arrived at Starry Sky Kindergarten to livestream.
The online viewers were all shocked.
"Oh my god, am I seeing things? That's my brother's doctoral supervisor. How come he's teaching at a kindergarten?"
"I've long known that this Starry Sky Kindergarten had some tricks up its sleeve, but now I realize I still underestimated this kindergarten."
"Starry Sky Kindergarten, I'm warning you, if you keep this up, I'll have no choice but to take remedial classes at kindergarten."
"Goodness, all the people coming to lecture on computers are big shots."
For an entire morning.
Everyone was shocked again and again.
The prestige value in Shen Wei's mind kept rising. These big shots brought her over 10,400 points.
At lunchtime.
They were shocked once again.
These big shots were all quite old and liked to eat those strong-flavored dishes.
But schools often recommend light, healthy foods.
Some partners, to cater to their tastes, serve increasingly plain food.
It was different here. There were braised pork trotters, large pork knuckles.
All kinds of yogurt drinks.
Even the red and green peppers in the stir-fried pork liver were delicious.
That crispy spiciness, followed by a big mouthful of rice, was heavenly.
These old professors had all experienced hardships when they were young and loved these flavorful dishes.
In the past, when conditions weren't good, it was understandable. Now that they could afford it, they didn't know why they still had to eat bland food.
But the advice to eat vegetarian was well-intentioned, so there was nothing they could do.
Coming to Starry Sky Kindergarten, Liu Chef, who was also of their age, understood their psychology thoroughly.
Liu Chef personally cooked for them, making rich and savory dishes that immediately won them over.
The other professors ate with relish, looking at Professor Liu and couldn't help saying: "Well, well, so you came here for the food!"
Professor Liu smiled: "Not at all, I have a little disciple here!"
Then he "sold out" Professor Gao.
Saying that Professor Gao indeed came for the food.
He had even bought a house locally.
Everyone was tempted after hearing this. These professors weren't short of money.
And the local housing prices weren't too expensive, so buying one was feasible.
If they could come here every now and then for a meal, it would be much better than eating at restaurants outside.
They thought the meal was the highlight, but they didn't expect there was also a vegetable garden next door. Starry Sky Kindergarten had hit all their sweet spots.
These people had all experienced going up to the mountains and down to the countryside in the past.
They felt close to the land.
Plus, as they got older, it was as if their blood awakened. Seeing little green sprouts emerging from the soil in the planter boxes, they became full of energy.
"It's so nice here. Are you still recruiting?"
More than half of the old professors present were tempted.
Professor Gao quickly said: "No, you all still have positions at universities. Not like me, I'm free!"
He was clearly trying to dissuade them, but his colleagues somehow heard a hint of superiority in his tone.
Well, well, he was enjoying himself here, not caring about others' situations.
But everyone knew he had a point.
They had to give up reluctantly.
Today had already brought them too many shocks.
Unexpectedly, when they returned to the kindergarten, many people were stopping at the door of a room.
They wanted to take a casual look inside. What was this? A holographic game.
All present were big shots from the computer conference.
Although they were a bit old in age.
Their sensitivity to such things was even higher than young people's.
The old professors immediately rushed in.
Inside, they saw immersive game pods.
They were all scratching their heads in bewilderment. Had domestic technology advanced so much?
Holographic games? That was something only seen in science fiction movies.
Their hearts suddenly became passionate.
Several old professors immediately called their assistants to cancel their tickets, deciding not to leave.
They had to stay and see exactly what was going on.
So the old professors, relying on their thick skin, also managed to get 20 minutes of game time.
After 20 minutes were up, the other professors gathered around: "How was it?"
The old professor felt a mix of emotions.
It was indeed a holographic game.
And those 20 minutes passed too quickly, he hadn't played enough.
He had only caught two fish while fishing.
Looking at the fishing record, Doctor Lu could catch up to 20 fish in 20 minutes.
That's equivalent to one fish per minute!
This game is incredibly fun, suitable for everyone from 99-year-olds down to those who have just learned to walk - all can find enjoyment in it.
Every sensation feels completely real, including that faint fishy smell.
It's entirely different from those helmet-based games you find in shopping malls.
Shen Wei only mentioned that it was a customized version from the lab, and that it wasn't convenient to discuss further at the moment.
Even the old professor [didn't fully grasp] the value in this.
Both the hardware and software were worthy of their research.
