Other than the professors sitting at the front, there were also members that the government had sent to observe the operations of the research institute. Those that were left were mostly George’s classmates or seniors.
The person in charge of the observer group was also a graduate of Yale University. However, he did not choose to stay and work at Yale University. Instead, he joined the planetary defense organization.
As the important figure sent by the government, Professor Franklin looked at George with a mocking gaze.
He was a senior expert in the field of space physics. Both his experience and academic status were slightly higher than the professors present.
After George said that he could solve the difficult problem raised by Professor Eugene, the entire meeting room fell silent. Everyone was in a state of extreme shock.
What kind of joke was this?
“How could a student who had just graduated solve a problem that even the professors were clueless about?” Such was the thought of almost everyone present.
The kind-hearted girl who had warned George before also frowned. She lowered her voice again and tried to persuade George, “George, quickly take back what you just said and apologize to Professor Eugene. Maybe they will forgive you then. Just say that you ate something wrong before coming…”
However, before the girl could finish her words, she was shocked to see a professor sitting in front of her jump up in anger.
“George, do you know how important this conference is to humans? Your words and actions now are tarnishing the reputation of your mentor, no, Yale University!”
When Professor Franklin saw that someone stood up to mock George, he also laughed coldly, “Humph, Yale University has given us such a good student!”
Professor Eugene, who was sitting in his seat, did not say anything. When he heard how Franklin deliberately emphasized the word “good”, his face turned ugly.
However, what surprised Professor Eugene was that with his understanding of George, his student should not have acted so rashly and irrationally.
What Franklin said just now was a very bad signal. If serious, George might be held responsible for disrupting the important meeting.
Professor Eugene pondered in his heart and decided to save his student. As for the rest, he could wait until after the event to punish George alone.
“George! What nonsense are you talking about? I suppose you may have caught a cold and are feeling feverish, which is why you took random medicine, right? Drag him out!”
While Professor Eugene said this, he hinted at the students who were close to George with his eyes. It was obvious that he wanted the other students to drag George out first, which was equivalent to protecting him.
With this, a few students stood up and came to George’s side. They grabbed him and escorted him to the door.
After George was grabbed by the students, he suddenly understood what his mentor meant. His eyes were filled with gratitude as he looked at Professor Eugene.
Just as the few of them were at the door and were about to push the door open to leave, they were suddenly stopped by a voice.
“Wait!”
Everyone looked towards the voice and realized that it was Professor Franklin who had stopped them.
After Franklin said that, he deliberately glanced at Professor Eugene before he continued, “I would like to hear his solution to the problem. If what he said is true, we have buried a talent!”
Professor Eugene’s expression became even uglier. He looked at Franklin and found that his face was filled with the pleasure of revenge.
Yes, that’s right!
Professor Franklin hated Professor Eugene with his guts. During his time at Yale University, Professor Eugene was very talented and hard-working as well. As such, he always overshadowed Professor Franklin in their same field of study, which gradually caused Franklin to develop a twisted mentality.
Franklin liked to see Professor Eugene make a fool of himself in public as this way, his narrow heart could obtain a perverted sense of satisfaction.
Professor Eugene really wanted to stop him, but in terms of academic status, due to the authority of the government, he could not say anything against the other party’s actions.
Besides, Franklin was looking forward to him standing up for his student so that he would fall into the trap that he had already set up.
At this time, Franklin saw that the few people at the door had no intention of turning back, thus he directly let the two assistants beside him walk over and pull George back from the meeting room.
The entire conference room was very quiet. Everyone’s eyes were locked on George’s face.
There were professors who were worried about him, and there were classmates who were anxious about him.
Similarly, there was Franklin who was waiting to see the joke.
Franklin sat back in his seat and looked at George with a mocking expression.
“You can begin! Show your talent to all of us here! Huh? Can’t you hear what I’m saying?!”
George knew very well that Franklin, who had been making things difficult for him, was actually slapping his mentor, Professor Eugene, in the face, and he was just the tool for him to do so.
Humph! Damned Franklin! You asked for it!
Under everyone’s gaze, George walked to the front of the meeting room. There was a simple blackboard with all kinds of mathematical formulas written on it.
He picked up a chalk and turned to look at Professor Eugene.
Professor Eugene was feeling very uncomfortable and just wished to leave as soon as possible. He blamed himself for not being able to help his student. He could only look away and close his eyes.
When George saw this scene, he did not hesitate anymore and quickly turned to face the blackboard.
Soon, the mathematical formulas left on the blackboard were wiped clean by him.
In the next moment, the sound of rapid writing came from the blackboard in the silent meeting room.
Swish, swish, swish!
Everyone was surprised to see that a mathematical formula that they had never seen before appeared on the blackboard.
One should know that the people attending this meeting were all big shots or elites in the field of space physics.
Therefore, the people present could quickly see the significance of the mathematical formula that George had written on the blackboard.
“Although we haven’t seen this formula before, the direction of the calculation is correct!”
“The minimum error in the previous calculation was already quite minimal. Did he borrow the previous train of thought?”
“Humph, the error is minimal, and that’s the same as not getting the correct result!”
“George couldn’t have borrowed the previous calculation method. He’s using a brand new method to solve the problem!”
“Look, George has already calculated the correct result!”
“Oh my god, he’s still calculating. It can’t be that he can use a second method to get the final answer, right?”
