As the last vestiges of gold faded from the ginkgo leaves on the trellis branches, snowflakes eagerly blanketed the eaves of Jinghua University.
"The first snow! It's the first snow!"
The sudden heavy snow excited everyone in the dormitory. An Xinmeng couldn't wait to rush out of the dormitory, vowing to build the biggest snowman in the entire capital. Xu Qingning and Qiao Lingyuan naturally followed suit, not wanting to be outdone!
The four roommates rushed out of breath to the school playground, only to find that a large crowd had already gathered there. Many students from Jinghua University had been drawn to the playground by the weather and come to join in the festivities!
In the end, caught up in the lively atmosphere, the "biggest snowman in the whole capital" was not built, but the girls started a snowball fight on the spot, and their laughter echoed across the snowy playground for a long time!
After the snowflake "war" temporarily subsided, the four dormitory members took a break, lying panting in the snow. Lin Jicheng patted the snow off his clothes, which had been hit by others, looked up at the dark night sky and the swirling white snowflakes, and strolled among the snowflakes, immersed in this extremely romantic snowy night on campus. Just then, his phone vibrated—
"Can I check my final grades now?"
Lin Jicheng opened her phone, looked at the final report card on it, and drew a final note to this fulfilling season—
Lin Jicheng's name was prominently listed at the top of both majors. Her near-perfect transcript was the best testament to her hard work throughout the semester!
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Lin Sisi and Alfred also submitted a satisfactory report card—
Lin Jicheng's core group has already established a foothold in the United States. After a hard-fought battle, a major piece of exciting news finally came during her final exam week—the successful divestiture of key intellectual property rights. Lin Jicheng's business empire in the Americas has finally gained another crucial piece of the puzzle!
However, North America is indeed a tough nut to crack. Even with Alfred and Lin Si's tremendous efforts, they have only completed a part of the mission in the Americas so far.
However, Lin Jicheng himself is not in a hurry. He has plenty of time and energy to fight this matter properly!
Even better news came from the direction of the mysterious old man—
"Student Lin, the batch of cultural relics you sent us has been verified and tested by the top cultural relics experts in our country, and it has been confirmed that they are all genuine. Our people have also sorted all the cultural relics according to dynasty and type. You are welcome to come and see these tens of thousands of cultural relics at any time!"
The mysterious old man took the initiative to make a phone call, his tone enthusiastic, and tentatively offered Lin Jicheng a suggestion:
"Originally, I thought of placing these cultural relics in several national museums and exhibition halls so that people all over the country could appreciate their beauty. However, after collecting them, we found that the quantity and quality of these cultural relics exceeded our previous estimates..."
"Lin, have you ever considered... perhaps donating a museum in your own name or your family's name, and then displaying all the cultural relics there?"
Although the suggestion was quite tempting, Lin Jicheng's ambition to establish his status as a wealthy tycoon was not yet fully complete. He just wanted to keep a low profile for now and didn't want to attract too much attention, so he politely declined.
"No need... These cultural relics are the crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese nation, and ultimately belong to our entire country and nation. There's no need to use my personal name..."
"However, I do have some thoughts of my own regarding the preservation and exhibition of this artifact..."
Lin Jicheng pondered and considered it carefully—
While expanding his business empire in the Americas, Lin Jicheng was heartbroken to discover that the cultural relics of his nation scattered overseas were not only found in Europe, but also in the United States and many other corners of the world!
Now that I, Lin Jicheng, have noticed these things, there will naturally be no chance for them to be missed!
Whether participating in public auctions or controlling the entire family through capital operations, Lin Jicheng actively uses various channels to continuously collect all kinds of Chinese cultural relics!
In the foreseeable future, countless cultural relics will be transported back to their homeland through various means!
Considering all this, donating these cultural relics to various museums in a scattered manner would indeed be somewhat inappropriate. Lin Jicheng pondered, and decided to find a more comprehensive solution in one step.
"No need for a nominal appointment, but donating to a museum is fine!"
Lin Jicheng spoke eloquently:
"Although I have no intention of acquiring ownership of these artifacts, I would be very willing to donate a separate museum to house them!"
"oh?"
The mysterious old man's voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding very interested:
"Haha, Lin, you already put in a lot of effort to bring these cultural relics back. Now you're going to spend even more money to donate a museum so that more people can visit?"
"Yes!"
Lin Jicheng said resolutely that she had made up her mind:
"Finding the most suitable home for these precious cultural relics is worth any price!"
"Furthermore, I would like to donate funds to the cultural heritage research institutes of some well-known universities in China, and ideally establish a cultural relics scanning center..."
"Here, we can scan, store, and virtually restore a large number of cultural relics in our collection, allowing those fragile relics to be preserved in another way. We can also open these virtual resources to more citizens, allowing them to appreciate the beauty of cultural relics in a simple and accessible way!"
"Great! Hahahaha!"
A hearty laugh came from the other end of the phone:
"These young people are truly formidable!"
"Lin, it's truly remarkable that you have such a broad mind and far-sighted vision at such a young age!"
"Since you have made up your mind, then on behalf of these organizations and the public, I would like to express our sincere respect to you!"
"Of course, you won't have to worry about all of these institutions. Our local government agencies will also provide full support and cooperation, and we hope to see these museums open as soon as possible!"
"Haha, okay!"
Lin Jicheng smiled contentedly:
"This is what I should do."
"I'm relieved to hear that!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Jicheng took a small sip of the hot tea beside her. A new and more challenging chess game quietly unfolded in her mind—
