You said you failed your college entrance exam and are now crowdfunding to build a university?

John held his phone tightly in his hand, which was showing Wei Ying's live broadcast inside Haichuan University!

"What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?" In the director's office, James frowned as he looked at John, who was panting heavily.

"China, China says they're going to research controlled nuclear fusion!" John gasped, speaking hurriedly. "Controlled nuclear fusion?"

James paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "I didn't expect them to still be so persistent. Let them study it."

He remembered clearly that back then, top research institutes in countries around the world had tried to study controlled nuclear fusion technology, and China was one of them.

But after several years of research, all countries in the world failed without exception.

Gradually, the current research community has abandoned this research and put it aside. Unexpectedly, China is now planning to tackle this tough nut again!

"No, it's not the Chinese government, but a third-rate university in China. They claim they'll break through controlled nuclear fusion technology within three months!" John shook his head repeatedly, swallowing hard.

"A third-rate university?" James was utterly shocked. When did a third-rate university dare to challenge such a world-class problem?

"It's the university you told me to keep an eye on," John said with a wry smile.

James paused for a moment, then realized what he meant and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Haichuan University?"

During this period, they received top-tier academic papers from Haichuan University in SCI journals, and published more than ten of them consecutively.

Surprised, he assigned researcher John to keep an eye on Haichuan University and observe this mysterious institution.

John happened to have studied at Yenching University and was fluent in Chinese.

"You mean this university has announced a research plan, claiming it will solve the world-class problem of controlled nuclear fusion within three months?" James frowned and asked again in a deep voice.

"Yes." John nodded. "I heard they have already selected the relevant personnel to form a research team and plan to start the research project in a couple of days. The laboratory is located inside Haichuan University."

He recounted exactly what he had seen in the live stream.

"Controlled nuclear fusion is something the United States has been researching for decades, but we still haven't been able to break through it," James shook his head and muttered.

"While Haichuan University is remarkable, it's impossible for it to succeed, let alone within three months." During this period, he personally reviewed all of Haichuan University's academic papers, and its academic research capabilities were indeed astonishing.

If it were other projects, it might not be difficult, but this is controlled nuclear fusion!

This is a world-class problem! It's a challenge that many top research institutes in the United States have been studying for decades without success! Haichuan University has absolutely no chance of succeeding!

Three days later, at Haichuan University, Baihu Campus, in a large conference room.

Wei Ying gathered 124 members of the research team and 100 students here.

In front of everyone was an agreement, with four large characters written in black and white at the top: "Confidentiality Agreement".

"There is a confidentiality agreement in front of you," Wei Ying said in a deep voice, looking at everyone.

"This research project is of utmost importance and is extremely confidential. As participants, you must keep it confidential at all times and are prohibited from disclosing it to family, friends, roommates, or other close contacts."

"In addition, there is a security check before entering the laboratory, and any electronic devices are prohibited from being brought in."

As he spoke, Liu Dazhu walked in, carrying a large basin, and approached the group.

Everyone conscientiously took out their mobile phones and other electronic devices and put them in the container. Then they looked down at the confidentiality agreement on the table and signed their names on the last page.

As teachers, they need to suspend their teaching work during this period and stay in the laboratory the entire time.

To communicate with their families, they had to apply to Wei Ying and submit a report, and could only leave the experimental base after approval.

The students, on the other hand, have a supporting role and need to go to the experimental base to participate in research without neglecting their studies.

Every time you enter or leave the experimental base, you must be searched and checked. It is forbidden to bring in or take out any suspicious items.

"Principal, where exactly is our experimental base?" Qi Limin was the first to sign the papers and looked at Wei Ying eagerly.

The others looked up, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and anticipation.

They had been living at Haichuan University for some time, but had never heard of any experimental base there.

"You'll find out soon enough," Wei Ying said with a mysterious smile.

After everyone had signed, he waved and led them out of the conference room.

After passing through the tree-lined paths of the campus, the artificial campus scenery gradually disappeared, replaced by overgrown and extremely steep mountain roads.

"This isn't the campus. Is there another road ahead?"

"I remember there was construction going on on the mountainside a while ago."

The group looked around, their minds filled with doubt. This place didn't look like an experimental base at all.

"Please forgive us, everyone." Wei Ying smiled slightly and explained, "The experimental base has just been built, and the roads here haven't been repaired yet." As he spoke, he pointed to a spot not far ahead.

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw more than twenty people in security uniforms patrolling the surrounding barren mountains.

"Principal." Upon seeing Wei Ying, one of them immediately stood up straight and greeted him solemnly.

"What's this?" Qi Limin and the others stared wide-eyed, not expecting that there were so many people patrolling in this desolate mountain!

Moreover, each of them had sharp eyes, upright posture, and a calm demeanor, completely different from ordinary security guards.

"They are from the school's security department, responsible for protecting the experimental base," Wei Ying chuckled and introduced them again.

These people were all professional security personnel he hired at great expense. Most of them were veterans, and their professional ethics were beyond question. They were specifically assigned to guard the outside of the experimental base and patrolled 24 hours a day.

"Alright, come with me." Wei Ying waved his hand, signaling the security personnel to continue their patrol.

Then, he led everyone straight towards the mountainside ahead. Finally, they arrived at an open space.

"arrive."

Everyone stared blankly at the massive stone wall before them, exchanging bewildered glances. They searched for a long time but couldn't find the so-called experimental base.

Until Wei Ying gently stomped three times on a certain spot under his feet.

"Boom—" With a loud bang, the stone wall crashed down, revealing the scene behind it.

A colossal door crafted from super alloy! Standing four meters tall, shimmering with silver light, its entire surface is outlined with inexplicable patterns, exuding a futuristic technological feel.

While everyone was still in shock, a cold voice suddenly came from the giant metal door, "Please verify your identity."
