Chapter 314: Chapter 314: A New Century
The Turing Award, it’s a pity. Although my secretary told me that it’s a global award, the Nobel Prize in Computer Science, in my eyes, it’s merely a vanity title. Therefore, I’m not interested and have no time to accept the award.
Regarding this matter, Jiang Cheng believes that many people are also concerned about it.
As for the American Turing Award issuer, they have long since been very angry because Jiang Cheng did not accept the Turing Award. Ever since the award was first given, no one has ever stood them up.
Jiang Cheng did well, not only did he not show up, but he also didn’t notify the Turing Award organizing committee, leaving the committee members with a bad impression of him. If there weren’t any restrictions, they would rather revoke this year’s qualification than award Jiang Cheng.
If they knew what Jiang Cheng said today, one would wonder what expressions they would have.
I’m not interested and have no time to accept the award, Jiang Cheng said solemnly, and the media staff present almost burst out laughing.
Do you think the Turing Award can be handed out casually to anyone? If it were awarded to those internet moguls in the country, they could brag about it for a year!
Moreover, this is the first time a Chinese person has won the Turing Award. Jiang Cheng, aren’t you even a bit excited? At least give Huaxia some pride, okay?
The media staff present, looking at Jiang Cheng’s indifferent expression, couldn’t understand why they found it so infuriatingly humorous—it made them want to hit him.
The two answers Jiang Cheng gave, both sounded so refined and unconventional—from feeling that curing smog isn’t as meaningful as the smog-curing bacteria itself, to having no interest and no time to accept the Turing Award.
If these words could be described with poetry, it would undoubtedly be something like, "Suddenly atop a summit, looking down on all mountains."
Many media staff felt speechless at Jiang Cheng’s answer; he definitely didn’t grasp how much researchers in computer science desired the Turing Award.
Countless researchers in computer science dream of this award!
And yet you, Jiang Cheng, have won this year’s Turing Award and still claim you’re too busy and uninterested to accept it?
Many people felt like the world had gone mad upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s words.
At this moment, Jiang Cheng looked at the expressions of the surrounding media workers, a bit surprised—had he said something wrong?
Clearly, he was a person who didn’t care about vanity. Also, he seemed troubled by issues related to the Genetic Evolution Potion at the time, really didn’t have the time to accept the Turing Award, okay? Why then did the people present have such expressions?
Although a bit puzzled, Jiang Cheng coughed and said, "Time is limited, please proceed to ask the next question." This heavy cough immediately pulled the journalists from confusion, prompting one journalist to quickly ask, "May I ask, Chairman Jiang Cheng, what are your thoughts on your creation, the Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, becoming the phone industry leader, and what are your expectations for the company’s future development?"
The question asked by this journalist was certainly one that most journalists present wanted to ask.
Because Jiang Cheng is not just the researcher who developed smog-curing bacteria to solve air pollution problems. His most significant identity is as the president of Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, a role that carries weight known widely.
Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, currently the most promising company in the country, though it hasn’t gone public yet. But based on the most conservative estimates, Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company’s valuation is calculated in billions, not to mention the storm it could stir in the capital market once it goes public.
"Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company becoming the phone industry leader?
Jiang paused and then said, "I think that us, Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, becoming the industry leader is quite normal. After all, we have such advanced technology. Our Elf Intelligent System is the world’s first and only true intelligent system, plus the transparent phone made primarily from graphene far exceeds all current market phones in quality."
"Hence, I don’t have much thought about our company becoming the phone industry leader because it’s all a matter of course."
At this point, Jiang Cheng smiled, revealing white teeth, his smile brilliant as sunshine. After seeing Jiang Cheng’s smile, some younger female reporters felt their bones turn to jelly, almost unable to stand. Then Jiang Cheng continued, "As for my projections for our company’s future development, I’ll just say a few words—our company certainly won’t focus mainly on phones since we aim to transform everyone’s life.
"Just like the name, Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, we intend to use technology to create a new century."
At this point, Jiang Cheng’s words seemed to evoke an emotional response. You could hear the magical power in his voice, inexplicably causing everyone who heard it to break out in goosebumps, their backs tingling!
Use technology to create a new century!
From shock and sluggish reactions, the emotions in people’s hearts fluctuated greatly, ending in sheer excitement!
Because Jiang Cheng’s words were just so inspiring! And when Jiang Cheng stated this, it seemed like he was overlooking the world, captivating everyone.
"What a statement, creating a new century through technology!" Major General Xiang Dong’s emotions were stirred by Jiang Cheng’s words, leading him to applaud excitedly.
This child is no ordinary person; once faced with storms, he will transform into a dragon.
In Major General Xiang Dong’s mind, this statement echoed. He knew precisely Jiang Cheng’s capabilities—just one Genetic Evolution Potion technology can dramatically alter human life, improving each individual’s lifespan, response, and speed tremendously. Such advances alone can usher in a new era! Furthermore, Jiang Cheng is still so young! His future inventions surely won’t be confined only to Genetic Evolution Potion. This time in Major General Xiang Dong’s mind, involuntarily, some future scenes arose, filled with such excitement and inspiration!
The media reporters present were all dumbfounded, scared by Jiang Cheng’s words. After all, these words came from the typically aloof Jiang Cheng, carrying such high-spirited emotions, along with the indisputable proof of Jiang Cheng’s achievements, as if there’s no denying it!
