Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Chu Luo arrived at the principal’s office, there were not only the principal and Nangong Yi, but also a few school heads.
Their expressions were very serious, and their brows were furrowed. It was obvious that they were vexed about something.
The moment she entered, the principal said, “Little Chu is here. Let our impromptu meeting begin.”
After saying that, he pointed at a chair beside him. “Little Chu, sit.”
Nangong Yi helped her pull the chair over a little. Chu Luo walked over and sat down.
The principal said, “I think everyone knows what happened in the forest last night. This matter has spread too quickly on the Internet and has a huge impact on Imperial University’s reputation.
“I received a call from the Education Bureau early in the morning. The higher-ups want us to handle this matter properly. Otherwise, our Imperial University’s qualification to continuously be ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world will be denied.”
These words made the expressions of the school’s heads turn even more serious.
One of them said, “To suppress the scandal at Imperial University, the best way is to use achievements that can impact the entire world to let everyone see the power of Imperial University.”
Then, the school’s heads started discussing.
“This method is obviously the best, but our Imperial University hasn’t had any outstanding achievements recently.”
“Why don’t you publicize Chu Luo’s matter again?”
“No, no. We can’t push Chu Luo out at this time. This will definitely attract bad comments.”
…
The principal and the school’s heads couldn’t come up with a conclusion for a while. Nangong Yi, who was sitting beside Chu Luo, turned to look at her and asked in a low voice, “Junior, what do you have in mind?”
Nangong Yi’s voice wasn’t loud, but everyone else heard him.
Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo thought for a while and said, “Actually, there’s something I forgot to tell you.”
These words made the school’s heads inexplicably nervous and excited.
The principal said, “Little Chu, speak.”
“The gaming capsule developed jointly by our school and Blazing Glory is already being experimented on humans.”
“Really?!”
Although this was a joint research and development project between Blazing Glory and Imperial University, the heads of Imperial University had no right to ask. Therefore, when they heard Chu Luo say this, all of them revealed expressions of disbelief and shock.
Even Nangong Yi was stunned.
In the end, the principal was the first to snap back to his senses. He couldn’t conceal his excitement as he probed, “So Little Chu, you mean that the gaming capsule has been successfully developed? Then when will the public beta be held?”
“Blazing Glory will release the notice of the public beta soon.”
The principal took a deep breath and suppressed his overly excited heart. He smiled and said, “This is great. As long as Blazing Glory releases the news of the open beta, our Imperial University will quickly announce that we are participating in this project. When the time comes, most of the attention will be diverted.”
“Not only…”
Chu Luo said, “Professor Tang, Doctor Cao from the military hospital, and Elder Hu, the Chinese medicine authority, and I, have jointly developed a drug that can stimulate cellular regeneration. A while ago, we’ve already applied for a patent for this research invention. Counting the days, we should be able to get the patent today.”
As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, the office fell silent.
After about a minute, one of the school’s heads patted the armrest of his chair. He was so excited that his face turned red. “This is great. Our Imperial University’s reputation will be salvaged.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Then let’s go prepare for the promotional work now. Also, your Student Union, draft the promotional slogans before school ends today. We’ll announce these two pieces of news when the matter is fermented to the maximum.”
“There’s no hurry. It’s more effective to announce it with Blazing Glory.”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.
The principal quickly said, “Chu Luo, call CEO Li and ask if he can publicize the gaming capsule today.”
Chu Luo nodded and took out her phone to call Li Yan.
Li Yan picked up the call quickly, but he sounded very busy too. Chu Luo told him about it.
Li Yan said, “Okay, I’ll get the public relations department to handle this matter immediately. Get the heads of Imperial University to prepare. At ten o’clock, the company will announce our good news at the same time.”
Chu Luo responded with an “Mm” and the two of them hung up.
After hanging up the phone, she said to the few people staring at her, “Yan said that he will announce this matter together at ten o’clock when the news of our wedding is announced.”
Relief washed over the school’s heads. Their faces were red and filled with joy.
“That’s great. As soon as the matter regarding the gaming capsule is announced and the major medical findings are announced, Imperial University’s international status will be secured.”
“That’s right. Then let’s handle the matter last night seriously and highlight Imperial University’s clear distinction between reward and punishment. We’ll definitely be able to suppress what happened last night.”
“Then what are we waiting for? It’s already eight o’clock. There are still two hours until the announcement by Blazing Glory. We have to act immediately.”
“That’s right. Quickly inform the various departments to prepare.”
The school’s heads became more and more excited as they spoke. As they spoke, they started moving.
Only Nangong Yi, who was sitting beside Chu Luo, finally snapped back to reality and asked Chu Luo, “Chu Luo, do you think Blazing Glory will announce your marriage to CEO Li at ten o’clock today?”
Nangong Yi’s words immediately stunned the few school’s heads who stood up.
Only then did everyone react and look at her with bright eyes.
Chu Luo nodded. “Yes.”
The principal took a deep breath and said, “There’s too much information. Let me take a breather.”
“Principal, don’t delay. Our school has only two hours to prepare. Time is tight.”
The principal waved at Nangong Yi. “Your Student Union must assist the school in handling this matter. Hurry up and prepare.”
Nangong Yi opened his mouth and wanted to say that it would be difficult for the Student Union to accomplish something so major in two hours.
The principal seemed to have guessed his thoughts. He stood up with a smile and walked up to the two of them. He patted their shoulders and said in a heavy tone, “Little Chu, Nangong Yi, as the outstanding talents of the Imperial University Student Union, I believe that this matter won’t be difficult for you.”
With that, he ‘chased’ the two of them out.
After walking out of the office, Chu Luo and Nangong Yi looked at each other.
Nangong Yi said, “The others from the Student Union are all in class at this time. Maybe their phones are all on silent mode. We might not be able to contact them.”
“So only the two of us can help the school handle this matter.”
“Yes.”
As soon as Nangong Yi finished speaking, his phone rang.
He picked up the call and said to Chu Luo, “The school’s publicity department has sent some missions to the Student Union. Let’s go, Junior. Looks like only the two of us are going to handle this matter.”
The two of them went straight to the Student Union president’s office.
The moment they entered the office, the two of them didn’t say anything. They each took a laptop and started assisting the school in drafting the documents.
At nine o’clock, Chu Luo asked the butler to send the three people in the villa’s laboratory to the computer science and technology building.
At half-past nine, the higher-ups of Imperial University asked Chu Luo and Nangong Yi to attend an emergency meeting for 20 minutes.
At 9: 55 am, all the heads of the press conference went to the technology building with Chu Luo and Nangong.
At ten o’clock, it was officially announced that the marriage between the CEO of Blazing Glory and Chu Luo was set for January 1st.
At the same time, they announced that the holographic gaming capsule developed jointly by Blazing Glory’s online gaming company and Imperial University’s Computer Science Department would start the open beta a week later.
The moment Blazing Glory’s two pieces of news were announced, regardless of which piece of news it was, it caused an explosive impact.
The world network had been paralyzed countless times in the past five minutes. If it weren’t for the fact that the Blazing Glory Corporation had long made full preparations and activated the highest-level accelerator to stabilize the surging traffic, the world network would have been paralyzed countless times.
All kinds of discussions surged into the Blazing Glory Internet Department like snowflakes.
At the same time, they also surged into the Imperial Official Network.
“Principal, our school’s accelerator can’t support such a large traffic flow.”
“Call all the professors from the Computer Science Cyberspace Department over immediately and get them to speed up the Internet.”
“It’s too late. A hacker wants to take the opportunity to hack into our Imperial University database.”
“Can the defense network Chu Luo built previously withstand the hackers? Chu Luo, Professor Wu, act quickly.”
…
Instantly, the school’s heads who were usually stern in front of the students turned anxious.
Professor Wu and Chu Luo, who were sitting there, looked much more calm.
Professor Wu said to Chu Luo, “When our accelerator is overwhelmed, the best way is to borrow from outside.”
He typed rapidly on the keyboard.
Chu Luo also typed rapidly on the keyboard.
After dozens of seconds, Chu Luo said, “Professor Wu, the Blazing Glory Corporation gave us permission to connect to their network.”
“Sure.”
The two of them continued typing rapidly.
Seeing that the two of them were so calm, everyone who was originally in a mess subconsciously stood behind them and held their breaths.
The rolling data dazzled everyone.
A minute later, they both stopped.
Chu Luo said, “Done.”
The principal glanced at the time. “It’s been more than ten minutes since Blazing Glory’s official announcement. We can announce it now.”
Then, a voice came from the door. “Dean, the Computer Science professors are here.”
“Perfect timing. Let them take over Professor Wu and Chu Luo’s positions.”
A few professors walked in at the same time to take over Professor Wu and Chu Luo’s seats.
The principal led the others to their arranged seats and sat down.. They were going to hold an online press conference without reporters.
