After the IMCRC press conference ended, the related news quickly spread through the internet to every corner of the world.
The sensation it caused swept through the entire Physics community like a tsunami.
IMCRC established an Advisory Committee!
Lu Zhou became its first advisor!
Almost everyone who heard the news was shocked.
On a well-known international Physics forum,
the site administrators had been well prepared. Before the press conference began, they had temporarily added two servers. Less than an hour after the conference ended, they proved useful.
Not only had the forum's traffic multiplied several times within an hour, but nearly every topic being discussed on the boards was related to the press conference.
"An Advisory Committee?!"
"A veto power is great! It can prevent the organization from becoming rigid while also preventing the new council members from making major mistakes in their decisions. It's perfect!"
"Haha, I knew it! Professor Lu really couldn't bear to leave the Physics community!"
"Although it's a little regrettable that he stayed in this way, at least those claims that he planned to leave the Physics community were just rumors..."
There was still a difference between an advisor and a chairman.
Compared with the latter, the former would no longer participate in the IMCRC Council's specific decision-making and would only play a role when IMCRC encountered a major crisis or upheaval.
Even so, for many people, this was still better than Lu Zhou withdrawing from IMCRC entirely.
At the very least, if the chairman's seat fell into the wrong hands, they could still place their hopes on an advisor with the greatest academic prestige in the Physics community. No matter what mistakes or crises arose, there would still be hope of setting things right.
