Chapter 294 The Astute Judges
The judges were all shocked, except for Wang Yu.
There's an unwritten rule in the school's selection of the top ten students: no matter how outstanding a student is, they should never be given a perfect score under normal circumstances.
If it's not a perfect score, then there's still room for improvement.
For example, there is a difference of 99 points between 0 and 99.
Is the difference between 99 and 100 just one point?
No, it could also be 99.01, 99.02...
Therefore, Lin Zheng is one of the very few people who received full marks from the judges in the selection of the top ten at Nancheng University.
In an instant, the other judges all turned their attention to Wang Yu.
You should know that Wang Yu is the "big brother" of everyone present!
They were all shrewd old foxes; they immediately sensed something was amiss.
And... the question Wang Yu just asked.
This student is no ordinary person!
Lin Zheng had no idea what was going on, but he could tell that Wang Yu was trying to curry favor with him.
He frowned, vaguely realizing that Wang Yu seemed to have investigated his identity.
However... it's very likely that they didn't find out, which is why they questioned him indirectly.
Of course, it's also possible that his behavior aroused Wang Yu's suspicion.
The former is more likely, after all, he gave him a perfect score.
In other words, it is very likely that he has been under close surveillance by the country.
Right now, someone might be watching him from some corner.
Suddenly, Lin Zheng's pupils contracted sharply.
If that's the case, then the country probably already knew he could move across regions instantly!
It's hard to hold back.
Perhaps he has to do something.
Furthermore, his next answer may very well influence how the country views him.
Should I continue to hide my true intentions and act selfishly, or choose to give back?
But... what kind of feedback is this?! Hasn't he always achieved his success through his own efforts and the small amount of help from the system?
Lin Zheng sighed again.
In reality, the state "ignored" him, but helped him out at crucial moments, such as dealing with Chen Hao's family in Songyun City. This was actually the best care the state could give him.
Lin Zheng's silence, especially the ever-changing expressions on his face, made the judges in the audience realize that this guy was really a big shot!
After a long silence, Lin Zheng suddenly burst out laughing.
A relieved expression appeared on his face, and he said calmly, "Aren't we all human? We have a head on two shoulders. If the head falls off, there's a scar the size of a bowl. So what's the difference between ordinary and extraordinary?"
The rise and fall of a nation is the responsibility of every citizen. I am nothing special; I am just an ordinary citizen like everyone else.
He only made a little money through a bit of luck.
This answer was almost flawless, winning the favor of most people.
However, a very small number of sophisticated egoists scoff at this, secretly mocking it as a charade.
The first judge, who had initially asked Lin Zheng a question, suddenly clapped and said with a smile, "What a wonderful line, 'Every man has a responsibility for the fate of the nation.' Just for that line alone, I give you full marks!"
As he spoke, he held up the number plate in his hand, which clearly showed the score of 100.
He gave me a perfect score, it was truly flawless, he's a shrewd person.
A moment later, the fourth judge sitting next to Wang Yu laughed and said, "Young talent, what good luck! Alright, you're lucky today, I'll give you a perfect score too."
This person's answer was equally flawless, absolutely brilliant.
The second judge seemed to already dislike Lin Zheng, but instead of following suit, he snorted and silently gave him a score of 92.
Judges number five and six didn't say much. They wanted to follow the trend and give full marks, but they didn't want to break the rules, so they gave 99 points, the unwritten "full marks".
As a result, Lin Zheng, with an outstanding overall score of 98.34, successfully pushed Wang Chen, who was originally ranked first, off the top spot.
When Wang Chen saw his name ranked below others, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
He gave a dismissive snort.
How can a proud person allow others to stand above them?
He immediately sent a message to his father's secretary, asking him to investigate Lin Zheng's identity.
Lin Shiling and others nearby also began to use their family connections to investigate what was going on with Lin Zheng.
Clearly, the secretary's authority seemed limited, or perhaps it was simply a matter of insufficient investigation, resulting in a very simplistic response from Wang Chen.
Only Lin Zheng's file is publicly available, as an ordinary person's file.
The reply Lin Shiling received was also just a few simple words.
For a moment, the two were puzzled, and their gazes toward Lin Zheng were clearly different.
Lin Zheng walked off the stage with confidence and composure, his heart filled with emotion.
Ugh! I thought this was some kind of election based on who your father is, and that he wouldn't even make the top ten.
First of all, isn't this a piece of cake?
Oh, so he has powerful connections, and they're bigger than anyone else's.
After sitting back down, Zhang Han was no longer the carefree, laughing man he had been before.
He stared at Lin Zheng in disbelief, speechless for a moment.
I originally thought he was just a lucky junior who happened to be brought here by the counselor.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a big shot?
"Dude, you're graduating soon. If you don't plan to pursue a master's degree, how much do you think you could earn annually if you joined a company?"
Lin Zheng chatted happily with Zhang Han.
Clearly, they've decided to hire employees.
Zhang Han snapped out of his daze, his lips twitching slightly. As if facing an HR representative, he answered dryly and honestly, "Annual salary of at least 250,000 or more, right? Reaching over 500,000 within five years."
Of course, if I graduate with a master's degree, my starting annual salary will have to be at least 400,000 yuan.
Lin Zheng frowned, then quickly relaxed.
Keep in mind, these are top students from a top-tier 985 university, earning hundreds of thousands a year, which seems quite normal.
In that instant, many thoughts came to mind.
A simple research team, with five or six researchers and seven or eight assistants, wouldn't their annual salaries be several million?
Add to that the research facilities, equipment, and materials, and the annual investment would easily reach tens of millions!
Moreover, this is just the simplest research team, and the projects they are researching are relatively simple.
Wow! Scientific research is such a money pit!
Having understood why scientific research is so expensive, Lin Zheng continued to ask, "Brother, what are your thoughts on sex dolls?"
"Sex doll?"
Zhang Han asked a question reflexively.
They quickly realized that this was the adult product that Lin Zheng had mentioned on the podium.
Could it be that...?
He vaguely realized something, and at the same time felt that an opportunity had presented itself to him.
He frowned and thought for a while, then tentatively said, "This thing is actually just a simple human skeleton."
No, or rather, this thing doesn't even qualify as a human skeleton. After all, the human body has more than 200 bones, which are intricate and complex. This thing is just a few human body supports, which are then molded to create a realistic shape. The head and other details are carefully sculpted by experienced craftsmen.
To be honest, this thing is neither good to eat nor worth throwing away; it's okay for taking pictures or as a figurine.
If you're thinking of using it for something else, I think you should just wash up and go to sleep. It's far better to find a girlfriend like that.
Am I right?
Chapter 295 Eager for Talent
I don't know if Zhang Han deliberately looked into it, or if sex dolls are simply a type of robot.
In short, his answer was absolutely correct.
Lin Zheng immediately gave him a thumbs up and said, "That's right, you're absolutely right. This thing is indeed made by casting based on a mold."
The cheaper ones on the market now are probably one or two thousand yuan, made of soft and inexpensive TPE, while the slightly more expensive ones are five or six thousand yuan, made of simulated silicone.
What do you think of the profit margin for this product?
"Profit? The manufacturing industry is sluggish right now, and profit margins are generally low. This product may have a relatively high profit margin, but how should I put it?"
Would an average person spend several thousand dollars to buy a large-sized figurine?
Add to that the moral dilemmas, and so on, haha…
Zhang Han chuckled coldly, clearly not optimistic about its market prospects.
Lin Zheng frowned, not expecting such an answer.
But that wasn't the reason he was in this industry; it was...
He continued, "Dude, I saw an AI sex doll inside a factory that isn't yet available on the market."
"AI sex doll?" Zhang Han looked at Lin Zheng strangely, and immediately understood what he meant.
He retorted, "It's useless. If it can't move freely like a real person, it's just a large-sized figurine."
Intelligent people are easily led astray by their own cleverness.
They will unconsciously represent themselves as everyone, or even the majority.
Just because you're unwilling to buy it doesn't mean everyone else is unwilling to buy it.
"The marriage rate will decrease in the future, and there will be more and more single young men and women. The market prospects for this industry are actually very large."
By the way, do you think it's possible for robots with a certain level of logic and the ability to act freely to appear in the future?
Lin Zheng silenced Zhang Han with just one sentence.
He's involved in this research, so naturally he knows what robots look like now.
Lin Zheng didn't keep him in suspense any longer. He asked directly, like an HR manager, "Leaving aside the cybernetic robots of the future, can you even make a relatively flexible robot that can move and change posture?"
Zhang Han snapped out of his daze, nodded firmly, and replied, "Our team has never done human experiments before, but given the time and money, we are sure we can do it."
The group he was referring to was, of course, the team he led to participate in the national robotics competition.
Lin Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard this. If such a lifelike doll could really be made, it would be a devastating blow to the rigid "large-sized figurines" currently on the market!
He immediately asked, "If we mass-produce it, how low can the cost be kept?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Han immediately gasped. He was certain that Lin Zheng was interviewing him.
"Sorry, I need to gather some information first before I can provide a rough analysis."
He took out his phone and entered the question directly into the AI search interface.
After a short while, the AI provided several answers, which he then revised and summarized based on his own experience.
"If you use cheaper TPE material, the most basic model might cost around 2000 yuan. If you use more expensive silicone, the cost will be around 4000 yuan."
"Oh? It doesn't seem that expensive."
Upon hearing this answer, Lin Zheng's eyes lit up.
If advertising on the stage just now was beneficial for platform promotion...
