Be the Freest Person

Lin Feng's mother, He Xueqing, fell silent upon hearing this.

Because what Lin Feng's father, Lin Guohua, said was indeed the truth. The situation where "I didn't harm the man, but he died because of me" was indeed very disheartening.

Other things like teachers and administrative staff using Handwriting Robots to slack off might draw criticism, but since they were all adults, the criticism wasn't that significant.

However, students using Handwriting Robots to copy homework really challenged people's bottom line.

After all, everyone recognized that children were the future, and cheating behavior like copying homework naturally had zero tolerance.

"But no matter what, I absolutely cannot accept Professor He's baseless and arbitrary claim that Lin Feng is a black-hearted merchant who is useless to the country!"

Speaking of which, Lin Feng's mother, He Xueqing, angrily turned to look at Lin Feng, who was calmly eating, and said:

"Xiao Feng, when will your Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle be completed? We need to prove to that Professor He that our Xiao Feng is a great inventor and that his inventions are useful to the country. We can't let others look down on him!"

Facing his mother's expectant gaze, Lin Feng took a mouthful of rice and then continued:

"Soon, we should have test results in about four or five days."

"Good, then let's prove to them that our invention is useful. I'd like to see what else that Professor He has to say then."

He Xueqing said, a fighting spirit rising in her eyes, her gaze filled with anticipation.

She was very curious to know what Professor He, who looked down on Lin Feng, would say if he knew how important Lin Feng's Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle was to the country.

But at this moment, Lin Feng's father, Lin Guohua, glanced at Lin Feng, who was calmly eating, and then continued:

"Lin Feng, you should know Uncle A-quan, right? He's eaten at our house twice before. He has a daughter, Qu Qiongying, who graduated from Shencheng University with a degree in Business Management. She's a genius student and the same age as you. She finished her studies and graduated early in just two years. Originally, she was supposed to pursue a master's degree, but due to some issues, she got angry and gave up her studies to enter the workforce. She's been working for two years now and is currently a marketing director at a company in Shencheng. Yesterday, her grandmother fell ill and is likely nearing her end, so she took a week off to go home. She'll be back in Xiaohe Town tomorrow. I want to find an opportunity to introduce you to her, have dinner, and see if you're compatible. If you are, then you can start dating."

"No way."

Hearing about a blind date, Lin Feng quickly shook his head and refused. He then complained to his father, Lin Guohua:

"Where would I find the time for a blind date? I'm already swamped with R&D every day. Besides, women are too troublesome. I don't have the time to constantly appease them. In short, dating is too much of a waste of time and energy. I want to prioritize my career."

Hearing Lin Feng's bluntly misogynistic remarks, his mother, He Xueqing, immediately shook her head in displeasure:

"Xiao Feng, that's where you're wrong. Career is career, but family is also family. Although Dad and I take care of your food and clothing at home, leaving you with no worries, you still need a partner to take care of you. I've seen Qu Qiongying's information. She's quite good-looking and kind. I've never heard of any bad behavior from her since childhood. Although I've heard she has a strong personality and has always said she doesn't want to be inferior to men, such a strong personality is actually the most suitable for our family's situation. Lin Feng, you spend all your time in the lab doing research. While Dad and I can help you manage the company, what can we, a teacher and a construction worker, manage for you, and for how long? Dad and I are getting old, we're in our forties now, and in a few years we'll be fifty. Both our energy, learning ability, and old-fashioned ideas are not keeping up with the times. As your company grows bigger and better in the future, it will eventually exceed our capabilities. So, Xiao Feng, you need to establish a formal company during this period. You need to set up a proper organizational structure and management system, with various department heads overseeing different businesses. Also, I've discreetly inquired about Qu Qiongying. She's never had a boyfriend since childhood. Although I can't get information about her after she started working after graduation, according to her friends and classmates who say she disliked men's talk since childhood, she's definitely still single and her body is clean. Moreover, she studied Business Management, so if she marries into our family, she can help you manage the company, allowing you to focus on R&D and invention."

Hearing this, Lin Feng naturally wanted to refute his mother's words, but his mother, ignoring his wishes, made the decision herself.

"Alright, Xiao Feng, stop talking. I know what you want to say. After all, you spend all day in the laboratory. How can you manage the company without someone trustworthy to help you? In short, I'll have them come over for dinner then. You have to meet her, whether you want to or not."

"Uh."

Facing his mother's words, Lin Feng felt a wave of helplessness. His mother was directly bringing them over for dinner. What else could he do? Was he going to deliberately go out to eat that day?

"Sigh."

Lin Feng sighed, thinking to himself that women were truly troublesome, whether old or young.

And so, this matter was settled. Although Professor He was trying to find ways to ban the sale of Handwriting Robots, and the Ministry of Education was preparing to formally investigate whether Handwriting Robots posed any harm, these actions could not pose a fatal threat to Lin Feng and Xingtu Technology in the short term. After all, with Lin Feng's articles and videos seen by so many netizens, their hostility towards the Handwriting Robot and Lin Feng had dissipated. Therefore, in the short term, Lin Feng and Xingtu Technology were still safe and sound, without worrying about existential threats. However, this incident also exposed a significant weakness of Xingtu Technology. This weakness was that Xingtu Technology's profit sources were too singular. Once this business suffered a blow, the entire company would face disaster. Furthermore, the flaws of township enterprises were also fully exposed. Faced with a sudden surge in orders, they could only request external assistance, ultimately leading to a sharp drop in profit income.

After this incident, Lin Feng felt compelled by real-world pressures to consider moving his company elsewhere, perhaps to Zhancheng, or even directly to Foshan or Dongguan to set up factories.

But soon, after some deep thought, he shook his head slightly, rejecting the idea of relocating the company and its factories.

It was true that setting up a company and factories in more developed and conveniently located places would undoubtedly lead to better growth.

This applied to R&D talent, skilled workers, and even reducing transportation costs for materials.

However, having lived a second life, Lin Feng had come to see many worldly pursuits like fame and fortune with a detached perspective. What was the point of becoming the world's richest person? It was ultimately just an empty title, and even vast sums of money were merely numbers.

What Lin Feng desired was to live a life of freedom, to do the things he wanted to do freely, and to explore the world or develop certain things at his own pace.

He wanted to pursue his passions without being constrained by fame or fortune.

He even dreamed of piloting a small spaceship to explore the solar system, to see if there was other life or any traces of aliens.

He also thought about landing on the moon, on Mars, and even creating a haven of life on an alien planet.

Then, billions of years later, when the intelligent life on that planet investigated the origin of life, they would discover that it was a Terran from the solar system named Lin Feng who brought the initial spark of life!

Moreover, compared to the vastness of the universe, humanity was insignificant, Earth was insignificant, and life itself was insignificant. Everything would eventually perish, whether it was human civilization or the Earth.

Therefore, value and the meaning of success were self-defined, not defined by others!
