Chapter 1459: Back to Jin University

The issue of equity certification was much simpler than Lu Zhou had imagined.

Originally, he thought it would be a long judicial dispute. He did not expect the efficiency. The industrial and commercial department sent a letter to a number of companies such as East Asia Energy and East Asia Communications to complete the information disclosure.

Perhaps a long time ago Xiao Tong considered possible disputes in the future and did the notarization of these equity documents. Most of these notary institutions still existed today, and they had quite good credit ratings. It was easy to complete the chain of evidence without dispute.

Lu Zhou was also quite surprised.

He did not expect that, except for the three giants of East Asia Energy, East Asia Communications, and East Asia Heavy Industries, which spanned the energy, information, and industrial fields, most of the miscellaneous companies he invested in before actually survived.

For example, Beep Beep Charging. Although its name was different after several rounds of mergers and acquisitions, its business had expanded from wireless charging stations to areas of core technologies such as urban cloud, wireless charging equipment production, and magnetic levitation auto parts.

There was also Baosheng Group, which did superconducting material for fusion reactor cores. They had also gone public. As the largest supplier of the controllable fusion core equipment in the Pan-Asian Cooperation and even in the world, it had become the backbone of the second generation of controllable fusion technology.

What Lu Zhou didn’t expect most was that the Hippocampus Group, which was world-renowned for its mid-to-high-end robot products, was also relevant. Back then, Zhongshan New Materials entered the carbon-based chip industry chain with his support. By the middle of the 21st century, Zhongshan New Materials had become one of the largest carbon-based chip manufacturers in China.

And CEO Liu was also a visionary entrepreneur. In his later years, he spotted the huge market prospects for robots and spent huge sums of money on the emerging robot industry chain.

Although this risky move did not bring significant benefits to Zhongshan New Materials, it had cultivated a large number of scientific and technological enterprises engaged in AI technology research and development in the Jinling high-tech zone.

The Hippocampus Group was one of them, albeit its size at the time was small.

Later, the business of Zhongshan New Materials went downhill. After several mergers and acquisitions, the two companies simply merged together and integrated their respective advantageous resources to form the Hippocampus Group.

In addition, there were also some large-scale VRMMMO games like “Calan Empire” and some businesses that Lu Zhou didn’t even look at at the time. They had now grown into towering trees.

After knowing this, Lu Zhou couldn’t help but feel emotional.

Although Star Sky Technology “died” with him, its legacy had long been integrated into all aspects of the entire society of the Pan-Asian Cooperation and had become an inseparable part of this society.

Like the roots of a big tree, it nourished every cell on the tree…

At the same time, according to the latest amendments to the laws, shares held by dormant persons who had been dormant for more than ten years would be treated as “frozen rights” during the freezing period, and other shareholders would act as nominal shareholders on their behalf. They did not enjoy benefits such as dividends.

However, in contrast, the rights and interests of stock owners during the freezing period would be fully protected.

The most critical one stated that, during the “frozen” period, the shares of equity holders would not be diluted by conventional financial activities, such as financing.

In other words, when a person had been frozen and hibernated for more than 10 years, starting from the 11th year, no matter what changes happened in the company’s management and shareholders, the frozen part of the equity would not be affected.

The original intention of this law was to protect the basic rights and interests of dormant people. After all, most people enter the dormant cabin because of terminal illnesses. Few people would choose frozen dormancy just for fun or say that they wanted to see the future.

After all, emotionally speaking, separation from relatives and friends was not an easy decision. The sense of separation from the future society after waking up was also an unacceptable thing for most people.

All in all, with the sound legal system in today’s society, it was not difficult to retrieve one’s own property.

After entrusting the job of unfreezing the equity to Lawyer Chen, Lu Zhou didn’t pay much attention to other troublesome things, except for asking Xiao Ai to take care of it for him.

He trusted the Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation.

Not only did this public welfare organization operate in the Pan-Asian Cooperation for so many years, selflessly helping millions of dormant people, but it was also because the fund’s managers were his descendants.

As the ancestor of the Lu family, Lu Zhou felt that his name still had a certain status in their hearts…

The day after the party ended, Lu Zhou handed over the housekeeping to Xiao Ai. He left early in the morning and took the light rail to the university town on the outskirts of Jinling.

This was different from when he came here last time.

Back then, he was using a completely strange face and came here anonymously.

But now, he was standing here again as Lu Zhou. Even though the scenery in front of him and the pictures in his memory were completely different, everything here made him feel extra familiar.

“Back here again…”

Lu Zhou looked at the lawns, the gardening drones trimming the flowers, and the young students walking on the stone brick roads. He took a deep breath of the fragrant air mixed with knowledge and stepped out of the gate of the light rail station.

At the same time, a holographic screen suspended in mid-air came into his eyes.

[We Welcome Academician Lu Back Home!]

There are still school banners, even in this era?

Lu Zhou looked at that line of text. He couldn’t help but show a touch of sadness in his eyes.

Home…

Speaking of which, this was the most worthy place for him to call home.

“You… Are you Academician Lu?!”

The old man waiting at the entrance of the station quickly walked up to him and held his right hand with excitement.

Lu Zhou felt that the old man looked a bit familiar, but he couldn’t tell where they met before.

Lu Zhou said with a smile, “Excuse me, you are?”

The old man said excitedly, “Qin Chuan! Academician of the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, Dean of the Academy of Jin Ling University! I am the grandson of your disciple!”

Qin Chuan…

Don’t recognize that name.

But his face looks so familiar.

After staring at his face for a while, Lu Zhou suddenly reacted and asked in an uncertain tone, “Do you know Qin Yue?”

“Know? That’s my grandfather!” The old man looked at Lu Zhou excitedly and continued, “I remember that, when I was a child, he always told me stories about you, including your teachings to him in Princeton and your influence on the Chinese mathematics community.”

“How is he… I mean, when he was still alive.”

“He lived a good life.” The old man said in a reminiscence tone, “A few years after you left, he won the Fields Medal. Since then, he researched the theories you left behind, hoping to carry them forward. I still remember that, before his death, the prosperity of the Lu Zhou school of thought reached the peak of history, even taller than the Göttingen school of thought!”

Qin Chuan suddenly sighed slightly and continued with a shameful expression, “I’m ashamed to say, it is our generation that has shamed your name.”

“No way.” Lu Zhou smiled comfortingly when he looked at the old man with shame on his face. “Don’t belittle yourself, you guys are actually doing pretty well.”

“You don’t have to comfort us.” Dean Qin said with a sigh, “If we really made you satisfied, you won’t be so disappointed when you came here some time ago.”

Lu Zhou: “…?!”

Lu Zhou looked at the sighing old man with a muddled face. Just when Lu Zhou was about to ask him why he thought he was “disappointed”, a group of people walked over.

The leader of the pack was not young, about fifty or sixty years old. He was wearing a formal suit, and his hair was neatly combed. The enthusiasm on his face was not inferior to that of Dean Qin. After seeing Lu Zhou, he reached out his right hand from a long-distance away.

“Academician Lu, hello, hello!” He enthusiastically held Lu Zhou’s right hand and shook it vigorously. The old man with neatly combed hair said excitedly, “We waited for a hundred years! Finally, you are back!”

Qin Chuan quickly coughed and introduced, “This is the principal of Jin Ling University, Cai Mingrui.”

“Principal Cai I see.” Lu Zhou nodded. He said with a smile, “It’s nice to meet you.”

“You are too polite. It is our great honor to meet you!” Principal Cai continued with a smile, “We have kept your professorship for the past 100 years. We never thought that one day you would actually come back, but our respect for you has not changed!”

“You are too kind.” Lu Zhou said with a smile, “Actually, a century ago, I was just an ordinary mathematics professor. You don’t need to treat me so solemnly.”

An ordinary math professor…

In addition to Principal Cai and Dean Qin, a group of people standing beside them twitched their eyebrows in unison.

The power of one person was able to promote Jin Ling University to the level of a world-class university and to move the world mathematics center from the other side of the Pacific Ocean. If he was just an ordinary mathematics professor, then what were they?

Principal Cai changed the subject and pushed out a young lady standing next to him.

“Let me introduce to you, this is the counselor of our preparatory class, Sun Lan—Teacher Sun! The people from the Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation have contacted us. You can come here to conduct lectures. We will help you arrange some courses to facilitate your integration into today’s society.

“If you need any help, you can contact me directly or Teacher Sun!”

The instructor named Sun Lan was probably a master’s or PhD holder from Jin Ling University, and she seemed to be about twenty-five years old.

Lu Zhou didn’t know if it was due to lack of work experience or for other reasons, but he felt like she seemed to be very afraid of himself.

“Lu, hello, Academician Lu! I-I am Sun Lan, I am glad to meet you. I will send you an email about the classes and the course later…”

She reached out her right hand tremblingly as her voice became quieter and quieter.

“Hello, it is nice to meet you as well.”

Not wanting to embarrass her too much, after Lu Zhou and her briefly shook hands, he looked at Principal Cai instead.

“I will communicate with her about the courses. Can I make a small request before then?”

Principal Cai said immediately, “Oh, you don’t have to be so polite, just ask us if you have any requirements, we will do our best to help you!”

“Actually, it’s nothing special.” Lu Zhou said with an embarrassed smile, “When I checked the information last night, I learned that Jin Ling University has the largest computational materials laboratory in Asia. Is that true?”

“Of course.” Before President Cai could speak, an old man standing behind him proudly said, “We at Jin Ling University might not be the best materials science school in the world, but we are at least among the top three. Especially in the area of computational materials!”

“Really? That’s great.”

After hearing this news, Lu Zhou couldn’t help but show a sincere smile on his face.

“It just so happens that I have some interesting ideas that I want to verify. I don’t know if I can use your laboratory.”
