Zuo Li nodded again. "Oh, he's also the CEO. That's still … What did you say?"
He suddenly realized something and opened his mouth in disbelief. "The CEO of Venus Group?"
The rise of Venus Group was a mystery. In just a few years, it had become the world's largest group.
Its companies were spread across various fields and had many world-class laboratories.
The CEO of Venus Group had never appeared in public. There were many opinions about this.
But no matter how they guessed, the public believed that the CEO was from Continent O.
Zuo Li said with difficulty, "Mr. Ying, are you kidding?"
After Ying Zijin ended the call with Fu Yunshen, she raised her eyebrows. "Professor Zuo, I have a good point."
"What do you mean? You're full of good points."
"I don't lie."
"…"
Sinai was chewing on a lollipop and asked curiously, "What's Venus Group?"
Zuo Li finally came back to his senses. "Mr. Ying, is this your sister?"
Sinai was furious. "I'm older than her!"
Ying Zijin ignored her and nodded to Zuo Li. "Professor Zuo, we have to go to the Astrophysical Research Center first, and then I'll send you back to China."
"Huh? I've called the Astrophysical Research Center. "Zuo Li said," They've agreed to take down your thesis. You … "
Ying Zijin said calmly, "I'm afraid that some people will take advantage of you."
She had been in the ancient martial arts world for a long time and had seen more of the darkness of human nature than Zuo Li.
Zuo Li nodded. "Okay."
The three of them boarded the helicopter.
Zuo Li stared at Sinai for a while. In the end, his curiosity about science got the better of him. "Hello, what was that laser you released just now?"
"Why?" Sinai looked up. "Don't move. You won't use it."
"I won't move, I won't move." Zuo Li didn't want to melt. "I just want to see which manufacturer made your watch. I want to buy one for research."
"Don't look at it. You can't buy it. Besides, what's a laser? There are many things you haven't seen yet. "Sinai crossed her short legs." Let me show you — "
Ying Zijin glanced over, her eyes indifferent.
Sinai immediately swallowed her words and changed the topic. "Come, let's watch the drama together. I realized that your dramas are so good. My watch automatically turns the screen to 3D. It's so lively."
Zuo Li watched as Sinai pressed a few buttons, and the watch projected a three-dimensional floating movie screen.
A real action movie didn't even need to wear 3D glasses. It was as if one was shuttling through the scenes.
Zuo Li couldn't help but wipe his cold sweat.
It was over.
Not only did Ying Zijin give him a huge blow, but this little girl also gave him a huge blow.
His worldview had been completely shattered today.
**
The next day.
In the morning.
The Celestial Research Center welcomed two guests.
It was Elizabeth and her personal butler.
The Center for Astrophysics Research was a non-governmental organization. The organizers and members were all famous professors in the field.
Naturally, the one with the highest reputation in this field was Herwin.
These professors also looked up to him.
When Zuo Li sent the thesis, he didn't mention the relationship between Ying Zijin and Herwin.
He didn't want to let this relationship affect the fairness of these professors.
Ying Zijin was Ying Zijin.
She had her own strength and didn't need to rely on anyone else.
Also, because the spaceship experiment was highly confidential, the outside world couldn't find out who the other researchers were other than Herwin.
These scientific geniuses were easily targeted by international criminals and lawbreakers.
If any force had a spaceship experiment, they wouldn't just conquer a country, they would conquer the universe.
Therefore, the official list of researchers had no information at all.
Even Elizabeth didn't know who else was in the project before she became a full member.
But the president of the International Physics Center reminded her.
Some Asians didn't know what was good for them, so she had to make sure they couldn't make a comeback.
"Here's the thing, I'm Elizabeth Laurent's butler." The butler stepped forward and smiled. "This is our young lady."
The surname Laurent was enough to attract the attention of everyone in Continent O.
The person in charge's expression became serious and immediately became respectful. "Hello, Miss Elizabeth. What is so important about your visit?"
Elizabeth just nodded slightly and didn't answer.
She sat elegantly on the sofa and the servant brought her a cup of tea.
"Here's the thing, I'm here today to show you something." The butler took out the scientific journal of the International Physics Center and flipped to Elizabeth's thesis.
The person in charge took a look and his expression changed instantly. "This …"
The few professors beside him naturally saw this and their expressions changed.
"Are you familiar with this? Our young lady's thesis was submitted to the International Physics Center in September last year. " The butler took out a few documents and said calmly, "Why would your institution have a thesis that's exactly the same as our young lady's? But why is it so late? "
The person in charge didn't say anything and carefully compared the two theses.
Even the order of the words and the clauses used were the same.
Even if their ideas were the same when they were researching the same field, they couldn't be so similar.
No, they were exactly the same.
It could only be plagiarism.
The professors looked at each other in dismay. They were all shocked and could not believe it.
The second ISC finals were held this year. Now that the semi-finals had just ended, there were still 1,200 people in the finals.
But there had never been another genius like Ying Zijin, who left everyone else in the dust.
The professors were more or less regretful.
But how could a genius like Ying Zijin plagiarize Elizabeth's thesis?
Elizabeth wasn't a newcomer in the field of scientific research. She had published three theses.
Ying Zijin didn't have a single one so far.
Comparing the two, it was true that Elizabeth was better.
The truth was in front of them.
The person in charge murmured, "No wonder Professor Zuo Li asked us to withdraw his student's thesis."
The butler continued to smile. "If it wasn't plagiarism, why did he withdraw it instead of explaining?"
Elizabeth put down her teacup and said calmly, "I don't care about this matter. I just need an explanation to tell the entire scientific research community that my thesis has been plagiarized."
"You don't care?" A sneer came from the door. "Of course you don't care, you thief!"
Elizabeth's face turned cold and she turned her head.
"You even asked the International Physics Center to keep me here." Zuo Li walked in. "How dare a thief be so arrogant."
"So you're Zuo Li." Elizabeth didn't comment. "You Hua people like to slander others. I've learned something new. Fortunately, I don't like to deal with Hua people."
The person in charge had seen Ying Zijin's photo and recognized her immediately. "Miss Ying, your thesis?"
"You said that I plagiarized this thesis from you." Ying Zijin looked at Elizabeth and nodded slightly. "Multiverse, alternate universe, parallel dimension. You know all the formulas I used in these sections. How did you calculate them?"
"Why should I talk to you here?" Elizabeth smiled contemptuously. "Is it convenient for you to continue plagiarizing my ideas?"
"I heard from a few students at Helga University that your computer skills are very good. However, you can only steal things from a computer. You can't steal things from a brain. Don't even think about playing any tricks."
When Sinai heard this, she immediately retorted, "Who said that there's no way?"
This kind of technology was already available in the World City.
Zuo Li's mouth twitched. "Little girl, there's really no way."
"I don't want to hear the word 'little'. I said that I'm older than her."
"…"
Ying Zijin looked up. "Do you really think that I don't have any evidence and preparation?"
Elizabeth frowned. "What do you mean?"
She had directly bought the thesis from the International Physics Center. It wasn't a simple plagiarism.
The title of the thesis was hers. What else could Ying Zijin do?
Ying Zijin raised her hand and knocked on the table. "Please, use this computer."
Sinai glanced at the thin laptop handed over by the person in charge and said slowly, "This is what we used in the last century."
Zuo Li was speechless.
Did this little girl have a chuunibyou disease?
Y'lisabet smiled again. "What? Are you going to show us how good your computer skills are?"
Ying Zijin didn't say anything. She pulled up a web page.
After a few clicks, she placed it in front of the person in charge and the professors.
They took a closer look.
This was a private article on a blog.
But now it had changed from private to public.
The article was divided into two sections. One section was in Chinese, the other in English.
The English version was exactly the same as the one published in the scientific journal.
At the bottom was the time of publication.
August 2nd, 2021.
It was more than a month earlier than Elizabeth's submission of the thesis.
Looking at this string of numbers, Elizabeth's smile froze bit by bit. Her expression also shattered.
This blog was like a slap to her face.
August last year?
How could someone post a well-written thesis on a blog before anyone else?
What kind of operation was this?
Even if it was published privately, it could be stolen.
Computers were never safe.
Zuo Li was also very confused. He didn't expect Ying Zijin to have evidence.
But after the confusion, he felt wronged. "Mr. Ying, you lied to me!"
He asked her for it in August, and she said that she didn't write it.
In the end, she had already written it and saved it on the blog. She just added it as a private message.
Ying Zijin didn't feel guilty at all. She said calmly, "I'll postpone it for as long as I can. Otherwise, I'll have to write many more. I don't want to lose my hair."
Zuo Li was speechless.
Now the timeline had changed.
The person in charge of the Astrophysics Research Center and the professors looked at Elizabeth. Their eyes gradually turned cold.
An old professor said coldly, "Miss Elizabeth, how do you explain this?"
"Who knows if you used computer technology to change this?" Elizabeth's fingers trembled. "How can you prove that I copied it from you?"
Zuo Li said in disgust, "I heard it before I came in. Our timeline is later than yours, so we copied it from you. Why are you denying it now?"
Elizabeth's expression darkened. She finally lost her patience. "Fine, I'll tell you directly. I'm an assistant researcher in Professor Irwin's new experiment. Do I need to copy her thesis?"
When this sentence came out, the professors couldn't help but be shocked.
The person in charge was also very surprised. "Miss Elizabeth, you're involved in the spacecraft carrier project?!"
Irwin had stopped other experiments and focused on the spacecraft carrier.
But because of the difficulties, the progress of the research was indeed very slow.
"She's involved in the spacecraft carrier project?" Zuo Li was also stunned.
If Elizabeth was also involved in this project, how could Ying Zijin not know about it?
Ying Zijin pressed her head and lowered her eyes.
She finally remembered that Caesar had given her the information of a few scientific talents in the Laurent family. She had casually mentioned that she needed a few big researchers.
She didn't need them to be as talented as Li Han, but their knowledge of physics and computer science had to be good.
The spacecraft carrier project was too big. Just the power core and programming alone required hundreds of researchers.
The entire project had at least 3,000 researchers.
She really needed manpower.
Therefore, she passed the documents to Irwin's assistant and asked him to help her choose.
As for what the names were, she didn't look carefully.
It was only later that Irwin called her and thanked her for helping to find people.
Looking at Zuo Li's shocked expression, Elizabeth smiled slightly. "I said, this thesis was written by me. Don't be ungrateful. I hate these things the most."
This time, the person in charge and the professors were in a dilemma.
Indeed.
If Elizabeth was a plagiarist, how could she enter Irwin's laboratory?
Zuo Li turned around and frowned. "Mr. Ying, she …"
"This is Professor Irwin's phone number." Ying Zijin pressed a string of numbers in front of Elizabeth and then put the phone in front of her. "I've pressed it for you. You can call him."
