“Imagine if the university had granted several inventions’ patents during your term time. It’ll definitely bring some fame to the computer science department! Recruiting new intakes will also bring many advantages,” said Xiao Yun.

“This collaboration will allow Xinghe Technology to provide ample employment opportunities for the students that are graduating this year!”

She tried to offer more benefits that were feasible for Yu Tian.

All that was left now was He Tianyu’s decision.

“I’ll consider your proposal, but one question remains. How’re you going to prove that you’re actually from Xinghe Technology? Yu Tian had only graduated two years ago. No one is going to believe that he’s currently the president of that company. He’s too young!”

Tianyu shook his head as a way to express his reluctance.

Yu Tian was surprised by what Tianyu said. He did not think of ways to prove his status prior to this.

After all, all the senior executives from Xinghe Technology knew him. None of them dared to request him to bring a work card around.

He finally spoke after a long pause.

“Mr. He, please follow me. I think I have something that can prove my identity.”

“Sure, I promise that I’ll introduce you to the other professors if you can prove your identity. However, you have to convince them yourself.”

Yu Tian replied confidently, “Alright, that’s settled then!”

They stepped out of the office and the young man pointed into the distance where his Bentley Continental GT was parked.

Yu Tian retrieved his car keys and pressed a small button. The lights of the car immediately lit up.

Tianyu looked at the young man in disbelief. That car cost millions!

It was enough for him to look at the young man in a different light, even if he was only partially convinced.

Then, Yu Tian took out a checkbook from his pocket that had his name signed on it.

“Perhaps this can also help prove my identity?”

Tianyu was startled. He accepted the evidence and nodded.

“Okay, I’ll bring you to the other professors.”

…

They followed Tianyu and the three of them walked around several blocks of classrooms before arriving at the front of an old building.

Despite the shabby appearance, numerous students were walking in and out of the building.

“This is the software engineering department. Professor Yan is in the room on the far left on the third floor. I’m not going to accompany the two of you. I need to inform the third and fourth-year students.”

Yu Tian took a quick glimpse of the building before shifting his attention to Tianyu.

“Thanks, Mr. He.”

After saying goodbye, Yu Tian and Xiao Yun headed towards the third floor together.

The door to Professor Yan’s office was ajar.

Yu Tian was standing outside of the door, but he could see a gray-haired old man sitting in front of the desk. His fingers flew across the keyboard as if he was playing a tune.

All four desktop screens on his desk were brightly lit.

‘Knock, knock.’

Yan Qingshan did not look away from the screens.

“Come in.”

His fingers were still busy typing on the keyboard.

“Professor Yan, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m Yu Tian, the CEO of Xinghe Technology.”

Qingshan was not bothered at all. He scratched his disheveled hair absent-mindedly.

“State your business quickly. As you can see, I’m really busy!”

Yu Tian was shocked. This old man was really hot-tempered.

He suppressed the anger rising inside him and said politely, “I’d like to invite you to collaborate in a project with Xinghe Technology. You’re welcome to decide your salary.”

Qingshan waved his hands impatiently.

“No. You can leave now!”

Yu Tian refused to give up so easily. He took a deep breath and said to no one in particular, “Xinghe Technology is developing a direct payment software, which can deposit and withdraw money online. This service is also available to merchants. Users must sign up with their real names. They will be given a unique personal QR code, which can then be used for collecting and transferring payment. Furthermore, it’s going to be a mobile app.”

Qingshan stopped typing on the keyboard and leaned to the back of his chair. He did not speak, but he did not stop the young man either.

Yu Tian thought that the old man might be slightly interested. At the very least, the latter had changed his demeanor.

He continued, “Once it becomes widespread, we can even connect the app to other departments that’ll bring convenience to people’s daily lives such as in aviation, subways, trains, buses, and so on. It can also be used effortlessly in convenience stores and fresh markets. People can save time because they no longer have to personally withdraw money from the bank. They will be able to travel across the country with just their cell phones and no longer have to carry a huge stash of cash around.”

Qingshan nodded before voicing his compliments.

“It’s not a bad idea, but that has nothing to do with me. I don’t have the time to become your money-making machine.”

“Professor Yan, this software will benefit the country and its people. If you’re leading the development, you’ll be able to reap both fame and fortune. As far as I know, no company in the world has invented something like this yet! You’ll naturally become the head inventor of this project if you’re personally involved. Any company that wants to invent a similar software in the future would definitely think of you!”

Although these were mainly words of flattery, they really resonated with the heart of this old academia.

Being at the top in a certain field was certainly his lifelong dream!

Qingshan would be lying if he said he was not convinced. However, he was not going to give in easily.

After a brief consideration, he said, “I have several conditions. I’ll head over to Xinghe if you accept them. Otherwise, I’ll have to show you to the door!”

Yu Tian was not intimidated. There was no problem in this world that he could not solve with his massive financial resources.

“First of all, as long as it doesn’t conflict with the company’s research projects, I’ll apply for patents over the things that I’ve personally developed. Secondly, I’d like to bring several students along. Their salary has to be double the market price. Thirdly, this department building has to be rebuilt. If you accept these terms, I’ll get my students and leave with you right away!”

Yu Tian and Xiao Yun almost broke out into laughter. This was basically “two for the price of one”!

The strength and talent of those students that worked closely with Professor Yan could not be measured with money.

Besides, the old man was only requesting them to donate an entire department building.

Those were not conditions.

They were just small complimentary gifts that came along with a big prize!

Yu Tian immediately agreed without hesitating!

He gave Qingshan a check worth ten million yuan.

“Take this check and build the department building to your liking! I’ll also cover the teaching equipment needed!”

Qingshan did not waste any time. After accepting the check, he turned off the desktops and grabbed his laptop.

“Let’s go.”

He said to Yu Tian.

Qingshan led them through the door. The old man’s quick strides gave Yu Tian the impression that he was really impatient.

Yu Tian shook his head and followed silently from behind.

First, Qingshan knocked on the door next to his office.

After knocking on five other doors, three men and two women were gathered. All of them were dressed in basic clothing. They looked rather disheveled.

They were definitely Qingshan’s students. Yu Tian would not believe otherwise.

The five of them were in their thirties or forties, which is exactly the perfect demographic for a company to build its reliable backbone.

This group of people could bring Yu Tian an enormous amount of wealth if he could convince them to stay in Xinghe Technology..
