Super God-Level Top Student

"Actually, it could already be enough. At least Qiao Ze didn't say a word before he left because he was afraid of being contaminated by IQ."

Feeling Li Jiangao's complex mood at that moment and using the sound of applause as cover, Yu Chenggong whispered into Li Jiangao's ear.

This was something Qiao Ze had heard on his very first day at Xilin University of Technology while he was showing Qiao Ze around the campus. The phrase had made a deep impression on him, especially the concept of "IQ contamination." It was probably something he would never forget in his lifetime.

Li Jiangao forced a smile.

He had heard this story from Yu Chenggong before, but hearing it now felt different. It had to be said that Qiao Ze knew there were some things that shouldn't be said on certain occasions.

Was that perhaps a form of progress?

After the report session ended and people began to disperse, Yu Chenggong took the initiative to go up on stage and help Su Mucheng pack up Qiao Ze's personal computer, which was his task for this trip.

Originally, there was supposed to be a group photo session at the end, but Qiao Ze wasn't fond of taking photos, and since he had already gone to the room next door, they decided to skip it altogether.

However, a complete recording of the session was preserved and could be kept as valuable material.

In many people's eyes, Qiao Ze clearly had the potential to be the youngest to achieve the Fields Medal, even though he was still an undergraduate student.

When Huaqing's several magnates left the room, they went straight to the lounge next door and found Qiao Ze resting with his eyes closed.

Qiao Ze wasn't actually resting; he was contemplating some problems.

This was a habit he had developed in high school; when his mathematics teacher had him stand out in the hallway for a stupid reason, he would stand there and think with his eyes closed.

Similarly, after encountering a stupid question, he needed to reflect on why his explanation could elicit such stupid questions.

From this perspective, Qiao Ze was indeed a good student accustomed to introspection.

"Haha, Qiao Ze, thank you for teaching our students a lesson today. Next, I'm going to have them hold a class meeting and have everyone reflect on themselves. They always act so superior, but after today, they should be able to truly recognize themselves," said Yao upon entering, setting the tone for today's report session.

Qiao Ze opened his eyes and gave a slight nod.

In the blink of an eye, Li Jian Gao, Yu Chenggong, and Su Mucheng also entered the lounge.

Yao caught a glimpse of Su Mucheng and smiled with a nod.

After all, he had this young lady to thank; otherwise, he would have had to make a round of the platform earlier. After all, it was he who had invited Qiao Ze to the report session.

To be honest, at that time, he really hadn't thought of what to say.

"By the way, Qiao Ze, there's another matter that requires your consent. I think we can sort out your theory and compile a textbook on the mathematical foundations of artificial intelligence theory. In the future, the Wisdom Class will specifically have a compulsory course on it. What do you think?" Yao asked seriously.

Li Jian Gao and Yu Chenggong both paused for a moment.

Then they looked at Qiao Ze with considerable envy.

Having his undergraduate papers compiled into a textbook, and a compulsory one at elite institutions at that, would mean his influence in Huaxia's academic circles would soar to the top instantly.

"Yes, yes, Yao's idea is excellent. Once the textbook is ready, Yanbei will also need it. It has practical value and both the Yanbei School of Mathematics and the Computer Science Department could use it," Zhang Hong also echoed, "Why don't we compile the textbook together?"

Qiao Ze thought for a moment, then glanced at Li Jian Gao. From the look in Li's eyes, he could read his mentor's thoughts and nodded, saying, "Sure, but I don't have much time."

"No problem, we'll handle the compilation and you can just give it a final check for any errors or omissions afterward. It won't take up too much of your time," Yao said with a smile.

"Oh, okay then," Qiao Ze agreed.

As long as it didn't require much effort on his part.

"Okay, then let's call this textbook an 'Introduction to Mathematics in Artificial Intelligence,' how about that?" Yao Yuanzhi suggested after pondering for a moment.

Qiao Ze nodded again.

"Haha, then it's decided. Come on, I'll take everyone for a tour and then we'll have dinner together. Qiao Ze, you can't fob me off with a cold tonight, can you?" Yao laughed and said.

"Oh," Qiao Ze replied.

Yu had already told him that both tonight's and tomorrow night's meals would have to follow the arrangements; it didn't bother him at all.

It was just a dinner after all.

...

There wasn't much to say about the dinner.

Actually, any meal involving Qiao Ze typically didn't have much to say.

Qiao Ze didn't like to drink and never did. Naturally, no one would force him to drink.

It was just like how, when he didn't want to talk during meals, no one could force him to speak.

Not to mention that, in the eyes of the professors attending the banquet, Qiao Ze's brain needed to be specially protected.

Fortunately, with Yu Chenggong and Su Mucheng present, the former really ensured that the meal wouldn't fall silent—he could drink on behalf of others and always found topics for conversation, while the latter could speak for Qiao Ze, saying things that made others feel warm inside.

A charming young girl explaining on behalf of her boyfriend beside her put others in a position where they couldn't really argue.

As for Li Jian Gao, he became the primary focus of concern and cultivation from the professors.

Especially Zhang Hongcai.

He had dined with Qiao Ze at Xilin before and understood Qiao Ze's approach to things, so he wouldn't do anything thankless.

However, he was very attentive to Li Jian Gao.

To have a reserved and reticent genius kid apply to be an expert reviewer for the National Natural Science Foundation, just to help a professor get the title of Jie Qing, no matter how ridiculous the matter, at least it showed Li Jian Gao's importance to Qiao Ze.
