As a Mage, I Only Want to Pursue Truth

A mage accidentally drifts to Blue Star. The intelligent life on Blue Star cannot influence reality by manipulating dark matter, thus the mage loses their casting ability.

In order to recover...

Chapter 228 Reaction

“All the countries and forces in the world, both above and below the surface, are eyeing magic and everything related to it.”

"Although you possess unparalleled wealth, wealth cannot protect your safety in critical moments. China's sphere of influence is limited."

"Sotheby's in London had announced that it would be auctioning a historical relic of King Arthur, supposedly related to Merlin." "But the day before the auction, it was forcibly looted by thugs using heavy firepower."

"Even objects whose connection to magic is completely uncertain are treated this way."

"To be honest with you, you definitely won't have the opportunity to go abroad in the short term."

The previous looting of Sotheby's auction house by rioters enraged the English government, which devoted considerable effort to arresting most of the perpetrators.

However, the missing relics of King Arthur could not be found no matter what.

England has only released partial information; the disappearance of King Arthur's relics will not be reported in official media. Zheng Li said calmly, "Understood."

The reason we don't prevent Kechuang Bio from making public announcements is because it's pointless.

The board meeting has already been held, and everyone who needs to know knows. Among the board representatives of Kechuang Bio are overseas capital firms such as Goldman Sachs, IDG Capital, and Temasek.

The news certainly cannot be blocked.

Moreover, America has Apple, and China needs similar companies to step forward and fight back in the public sphere.

In an era when hot wars were virtually impossible to escalate, finance, public opinion, technology, education, and culture were all battlefields. In recent years, China has gradually come to realize the importance of these battlefields.

"Furthermore, Mr. Zheng, if you'd like, you can discuss the algorithm you're using on Magoyin with us." "If your algorithm has value, the government will provide a certain reward."

Zheng Li: "Okay, I need to think about it."

meaning j,

The "Code of Conduct for Magicians" states that the algorithm related to Magoyin should not be revealed to outsiders. If other countries can mine faster, it means it will be harder for them to mine.

Moreover, this is a core technology, and leaking it carelessly could lead to unpredictable risks.

The spread of magic in the secular world is unacceptable to China, which desires stability.

After delivering the message, Dong Wenxu left immediately. He needed to go back and report on the meeting in writing and in person.

After 1DG Capital relayed the news back, Chen Yongcai couldn't help but remark to his assistant in his office:

"As expected of Zheng Li, I didn't misjudge him back then, he just lacked the courage."

The assistant asked, "What happened?"

Chen Yongcai explained, "Zheng Li's team discovered magoin."

The assistant continued, "Impressive. I've only met Zheng Li twice, but I can feel the intellectual pressure from his eyes."

“I’m not praising him because of his status or his achievements; I genuinely felt that way before.”

"Later, I specifically asked other colleagues who had met Zheng Li, and they also said they had the same feeling."

The Singapore-ASEAN joint research base on magoin is located not far from the National University of Singapore.

The Indians tried every means to get involved in this research alliance.

However, due to the agreements reached between Singapore and ASEAN countries in the early stages, Singapore still retains the leading role in the project.

However, if the project does not make progress, a new host will have to be selected after three years.

Therefore, Chen Yongcai is under great pressure. If countries re-vote to choose the host, India will bring a huge sense of crisis to Singapore.

They were worried that the framework they had worked so hard to establish would end up benefiting the Indians.

Although India has made various embarrassing mistakes, strength is relative. Compared to the smaller ASEAN countries, India is a behemoth. Back when Zheng Li was still in Singapore, Chen Yongcai specifically invited him to visit their research and development base several times.

In an effort to win over Zheng Li, they even showed him parts of their business plan.

Chen Yongcai nodded and said, "I can vaguely sense that too. Every time I talk to Zheng Li about academic issues, I have to prepare for a long time beforehand."

“Points that I need to think about for a long time to understand, Zheng Li can point out in a casual remark.”

"His mathematical intuition is even stronger than that of the Fields Medal winners I met back then."

“When I spoke with Ms. He from Temasek, I specifically mentioned that we should seize the opportunity while Zheng Li was still in Singapore and try to keep him there.” “Unfortunately, the bargaining chips we offered at the time weren’t enough.”

Ms. He refers to the CEO of Temasek Holdings and is also the wife of Mr. Lee from Singapore.

Chen Yongcai was unaware that they had no leverage to persuade Zheng Li to stay.

Or, as long as the safety of this persona can be guaranteed, Zheng Li will stay in Singapore.

Small countries like Singapore cannot control their own destiny.

Chen Yongcai's face was full of regret, "Now that Zheng Li has gone back, in just half a year, he has already found magoin."

"I reckon he'll laugh at us, saying that even with the combined strength of all the nations, we're no match for him alone."

"However, Zheng Li isn't that kind of person; I just feel embarrassed."

"No wonder when I talked to Zheng Li about magoin, he just smiled and didn't say anything."

"It turns out that at that time, he already had enough confidence in his self-deception algorithm."

"I should have tried to get more information out of him back then."

Chen Yongcai said a lot, mainly to alleviate his inner regret.

He missed out on Magoin, even though he recognized Zheng Li's potential.

Upon receiving the news, Young was so happy that he paced around the house. His wife couldn't stand it and said, "Can you please stop pacing around?"
