Extra Chapter (Third Update)
Second World Side Story
After the museum's busy opening ceremony, visitors streamed in, and Richard didn't need to do anything else.
Only then did he notice a new message on his phone.
It was issued by Najitong.
Logically, Na Jitong should have been the one to appear at today's opening ceremony, but Richard had suggested it to him before, which was rejected. In the end, Gu Kang was invited to cut the ribbon.
The ceremony has just ended, so what could this message mean? Could it be that something went wrong with the ceremony?
Richard opened it casually as he thought about it.
However, when he saw the contents of the text message, he froze on the spot.
"Hey? Mr. Li, why don't you go inside and take a look?"
Someone nearby recognized Richard and spoke to him.
Richard finally snapped out of his shock. Without even replying, he quickly pulled out Ji Tong's phone and dialed it.
However, the number on the other end of the phone was no longer in service.
He was at a loss for what to do.
Just then, teacher Gu Kang called, and Richard quickly answered.
"Teacher, you received the text message too? Mr. Yang and the others received it as well?"
"Yes, I just saw it! Mr. Ji went home like that?"
"Yes, I can't get in touch with Mr. Naji anymore."
"Okay, I'll ask the others."
After finishing his call with Gu Kang, Richard realized that he wasn't the only one who received the text message. Gu Kang, Yang Xiuwen, Li Junjun, and everyone else who had exchanged contact information with Na Jitong had all received the message.
Na Jitong texted that he was going home and that they would most likely never meet again. He also said not to look for him, and that the museum and the foundation should be able to operate independently. He didn't need to share the technology profits from GreenTech with him, and if he didn't want to, that was fine too. If he wanted to share, he could do so with the Antiquities Foundation as operating funds for the museum.
The text message was short and concise, typical of Na Jitong's style.
Richard then called Zhou Cheng, Mi Xia, and others to ask, and they indeed received the same farewell text message.
Richard even learned from Misha that Mr. Naji probably had already prepared to go home.
At this time, Mi Xia had not yet finished filming her program in Anjia Village. After receiving the text message, she rushed up the mountain and found that the place where the containers were placed was now completely empty.
Not only did Jitong go home by himself, he also took the shipping container with him!
Meanwhile, the production crew in Anjia Village hadn't heard anything from them yet.
This alone shows his determination to leave and never come back.
Richard finally stopped calling Najitong.
As he turned back to look at the brand-new, magnificent museum, a thought suddenly occurred to him—
This snow-haired boy, who appeared briefly and then vanished just as quickly, seemed to have come specifically to bring these priceless treasures to the world!
.
When Richard's descendants read through their ancestor's diary and came across this sentence, they couldn't help but shake their heads in disapproval.
"Our ancestor, that person not only brought world-renowned treasures, he also brought new life to the world!"
On a whim, this descendant took a picture of the diary and posted it on a forum he frequented.
It immediately attracted many people to come and take photos.
3rd floor: "I just went to the Naji Museum today, and I didn't expect to see this diary here when I came back. Waaaaah, I'm so envious of your ancestor. He actually got to see him in person and even worked with him. Ahhhhh, I wish I could travel back in time!"
4th floor: Upstairs, the line is really long, it's not your turn yet.
8th Floor: It's true, Mr. Naji just showed these treasures to everyone for free, filling so many gaps in history. At that time, even the art world took a big step forward. This spirit is truly admirable.
9th floor: The person upstairs is obviously an art student.
10th floor: How can you tell?
11th floor: Hahahaha, isn't this definitely an art student? Or an art student who's gone crazy from memorizing textbooks?
13th floor: Ahhh, I'm not an art student but I'm in the same boat as the 8th floor! My exam is the day after tomorrow, and I haven't finished memorizing the materials yet!
14th floor: What's your major?
15th Floor: I'm on the 13th floor, and I'm an archaeology major...
16th floor: Pfft...
17th floor: 13th floor, you're so pitiful.
18th floor: A moment of silence.
20th floor: I feel so relieved. I'm not the worst off. (I'm on the 8th floor.)
25th Floor (13th Floor): Ahhhhhh, Mr. Naji, why did you donate so many antiques?! A large portion of the textbooks are based on your donations! Ahhhhh, they're so hard to memorize!!
26th Floor: Upstairs, look on the bright side. Even if Mr. Ji hadn't donated, you'd still have to memorize the textbook. He donated so much; at least you'd have to memorize far less about the donor's contribution.
27th floor: I feel comforted... [slumped.jpg]
29th floor: The entertainment industry is no exception either. Isn't the award-winning actress Mi Xia also on good terms with Mr. Na Ji?
Floor 31: It seems that everyone who came into contact with Mr. Naji later achieved great success. GreenTech later became the world's number one company, and those who sought advice from Mr. Naji all became big names in the scientific research field; their names have basically appeared in textbooks.
Floor 32: Upstairs, why did you remind me? Waaaaa, this research student is suffering through memorizing data!!! I really don't want to let Mr. Naji down, but... Waaaaa, Mr. Naji, I'm so sorry!
33rd floor: I think the archaeology major is the most miserable.
34th floor: Is archaeology a good major? Is it as bad as my environmental protection industry?!
35th floor: No, no.
Floor 36: Disrespect, disrespect.
37th floor: Boss, please show us your miserable state.
40th floor: No way, no way, there are still people who don't know how much of the environmental protection industry Mr. Naji has taken over?
41st floor: I think the environmental protection major should just be renamed "Mr. Naji's Technical Research Industry".
46th floor: Hahahahahaha
50th floor: Just kidding, but Mr. Naji's technology has really changed our world a lot.
51st floor: Yeah, given the level of pollution in the world back then, if things had continued like that, we wouldn't have the leisurely life we have now. We'd probably be living in a post-apocalyptic survival scenario.
52nd floor: Exactly! Thanks to Mr. Naji's waste recycling technology, the waste disposal methods at that time were improved by at least a hundred years! This gave the environment a chance to breathe.
Floor 53: Those national treasures shocked that generation, but the circle of people who benefited from them wasn't widespread. After all, ordinary people's lives are indeed not easily connected with antiques. But resources are a different story.
55th floor: To be honest, now that I look back at that history, I really can't imagine how our ancestors would have survived those energy crises and resource shortages without Mr. Naji's technology.
56th floor: Exactly! Just looking at historical records, those days are enough to send chills down your spine. If things hadn't been so difficult, perhaps half of humanity would have perished.
58th Floor: Yes, who could have imagined that Mr. Naji's skills would be so amazing? I heard that when Mr. Naji was still alive, most people's attention was focused on antiques.
59th floor: Hahahaha, that's normal, that's not your average antique. Its rarity and quantity are enough to attract attention.
60th floor: Speaking of which, it's such a pity that the medal that was supposed to be awarded to Mr. Naji never actually reached him.
Floor 61: It's still in the Naji Museum; you can see it as soon as you enter. Maybe Mr. Naji came to see it sometime when he left home?
62nd floor: I think it's good that it wasn't awarded. Mr. Naji's contributions can't be represented by just one medal. The medal that was made with the cooperation of the state should have been awarded to Mr. Naji.
63rd floor: I just got a glass of water. Speaking of which, Mr. Naji was the first to propose this water source conversion technology, right?
64th floor: Yes, yes, that's right.
...
188th floor: I am the original poster. I have donated the diary to the Naji Museum. There is also other content related to Mr. Naji. Interested friends can go to the museum to see it.
189th floor: The poster is very righteous!
203rd floor: Thank you, OP!
218th floor: Thank you, OP!
...
Post #4222: Wow! I heard they're making a movie about Mr. Naji! It references a lot of the original poster's diary entries, and they're very accurate and true! Looking forward to it!
Floor 4223: Looking forward to it!!
4224th floor: I wonder if there's any information about Mr. Naji's mysterious identity. I'm so curious about that!
