Super Genius?

Code written in Chinese radical script.

The shocking news spread like wildfire through all the major programmer groups. Whether they were at work, off work, or undergoing treatment for baldness, the programmers had basically all turned on their computers and downloaded Warfire Hero's Core Code.

Lotus-shaped radical-script code.

Everything about it left them deeply shaken.

Meanwhile, the entire internet was still simmering with outrage over Ye Fan making Warfire Hero's core technology public. They were furious.

This was technology they had developed independently. To have it revealed just like that was truly hard to accept.

"Of course we're unwilling to accept it. But what else can we do? Bluehole Group has been filing complaints nonstop. We can only make the technology public and let them see whether it's the same or not."

"That's true, but I can't shake the feeling that this is all some kind of scheme. They want to seize our core technology!"

"Stop making noise. The Federal Court has already released the core technology. There'll be a result soon. Once the core technologies are compared, we'll know whether it was plagiarized."

Discussions across the internet were extremely heated.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Federal Court,

the Chief Justice was studying the detailed information in two documents, his brows slightly furrowed. "You're saying that a super genius has appeared in China, and his core technology was created using Chinese characters? Is that possible?"

The Technical Minister awkwardly rubbed his nose and said, "It's no longer a question of whether it's possible. He has already created it. We can't crack it or interpret it because we have no foundation in the Chinese language. I dare say that programming with Chinese characters could cause a sensation throughout the world and shake up the computer industry."

"It might even directly change the computer industry!"

Hiss—

The Chief Justice drew a slight breath at the Technical Minister's words. From what the Technical Minister was saying, the situation this time had developed somewhat beyond the normal course.

Why did it feel as though everything was being led along by Future Technology Crystal Company?

"Chief Justice, Bluehole Group has been issuing complaints and demands. Will we accept their case?" an elite lawyer asked.

The Chief Justice's face darkened as he shook his head. "Bluehole Group is simply making trouble without reason. Notify them that we will not accept their complaint. Also issue them a serious warning: falsely accusing and smearing others will be punished!"

Hearing the Chief Justice's words, everyone was shaken. Was he trying to show goodwill toward Future Technology Crystal Company?

Was that necessary?

Of course it was!

There was a chance that this super genius from China would win the Yuhua Award. That was the most prestigious award in the computer industry.

Even an idiot would know that they could not accept Bluehole Group's complaint when someone who might revolutionize the entire computer industry had allegedly stolen their core technology.

One idiot was enough. Did everyone really have to follow that idiot?

"Yes, Chief Justice."

While the Federal Court was making its preparations, Ye Fan of Future Technology Crystal Company was driving toward the hotel.

Inside the hotel's conference room, all the programmers were quietly studying Warfire Hero's Core Code. Although they already knew that the code had been typed using radical script, they had yet to fully uncover its essence.

Creak—

The conference room door opened. Ye Fan walked in with a group of people behind him. They were not Ye Fan's bodyguards, but all the programmers from Ye Fan's company.

They had come to attend the lecture.

On the way there, Ye Fan had already told them that what he was about to explain would affect the entire computer industry. What was he after?

He was after China's rise.

He was after the rise of Chinese characters.

He was after having all of this come from Future Technology Crystal Company.

"He's so young, holy crap. His hair is so thick! He's nothing like us—we're practically bald already."

"Great God K, I've finally met you! I'm so happy and excited! What do I do?"

"Is this technical discussion going to cover this core technology?"

The programmers were nervous, their thoughts flying wildly.

Their minds were filled with all sorts of fantasies.

Ye Fan sat on the lecture platform and smiled at everyone. "Hello, everyone. I'm Ye Fan, the founder of Future Technology Crystal Company."

"As everyone knows, computer science is an industry that is both simple and extremely difficult. The internet world everyone has come into contact with so far is merely the tip of the iceberg."

"Today, our technical discussion won't cover anything else. It will cover a new type of language programming!"

"This is the kind of change it will bring!"

On the screen, a formation composed of lotus-shaped code symbols appeared directly.

Not a single programmer dared to breathe loudly. They could only listen in silence, not daring to lose focus even for an instant.

They were afraid of missing something. Ye Fan had begun explaining the moment he arrived, leaving everyone no time to prepare.

Among the audience, quite a few people were secretly recording the lecture on their phones and livestreaming it.

Ye Fan knew, of course, but he had no intention of stopping them.

Ye Fan wished he could livestream his discussion to the entire world. That way, he would gain more Fame Points. How much they could understand would depend on them.

"Great God, I have a question. What about the transformation principles? How are the calculation and computational principle formulas applied?" a programmer boldly stood up and asked. Everyone turned toward Ye Fan. This was what they most wanted to hear.

Ye Fan's lips curled into a smile. "The principle is very simple. It's just like programming code in English. As long as we use Chinese characters as the foundation for our programming code—as if we had created a Chinese-script keyboard ourselves—then in the computer world, once you set this up, you can program however you want."

"Y*85X624 branch line." Ye Fan began explaining. The audience listened in confusion. Sometimes they suddenly understood, but at other times they were completely baffled and could not understand at all. Still, they seemed to grasp a tiny bit of it.

Ye Fan continued explaining.

Everyone listened quietly and took notes, afraid of forgetting any important points.

While Ye Fan was teaching, a famous Big V suddenly posted on Weibo. The post immediately went viral and rose to the top of Weibo's rankings.

"Did Future Technology Crystal Company plagiarize? Why do the people of the Korean Region support Bluehole Group so strongly? See how they're discussing Future Technology Crystal Company!" Below the text were more than a dozen translated images.

"Bah, that garbage Future Technology Crystal Company. Does China know how to do anything besides plagiarize? And a thousand-player team fight, too? What a joke. It probably requires ridiculously high specs just to run it."

"Isn't it normal for plagiarism to happen with them? What could they possibly develop independently? Bluehole Group is mighty! This time, they absolutely must sue Future Technology Crystal Company into bankruptcy."

"Everything they have is plagiarized from us. Sigh, they really have no limits. And they love using cheats, too. Now they've even ended up in the Federal Court. I don't believe they won't go bankrupt!"

Seeing those translated images beneath the Weibo post, everyone became furious. Damn it, you were the ones plagiarizing every day!

"Get over the firewall and take them down!"

No one knew who had started it, but quite a few people immediately got over the firewall and poured into the Korean Region's internet, launching a furious barrage of insults everywhere.
