Yesterday, William accompanied his mother, Lena, to watch football until 10 o 'clock. He chatted with Lena and talked about the coffee shop she opened. Lena named the coffee shop "Devonshire Coffee Shop." William complained in his heart.
Foreigners always liked to name their companies and manors with their surnames. However, William remembered that his own company was also called Devonshire Industries. He was influenced by Stark Industries. Forget it, let's not talk about the boss.
They chatted until it was almost 12 o 'clock. Lena let William go and let him go to bed.
The next day, William slept until 10 o 'clock. He had nothing to do these days. He wondered if he should go to school to apply for graduation or something. He really didn't want to go to school now. In the past, he had no money, but now that he had money, his mind had already flown out of school.
William picked up the phone and called his professor, Roy Stephen.
After the call was connected, William said into the phone, "Hello, good morning, Professor Roy. I'm William Devonshire."
"Hello, good morning to you too, William. What can I do for you?" Professor Roy asked.
William said, "Professor, I want to apply for graduation. Can the school arrange a graduation thesis defense for me? If not, I want to take a leave of absence. You know, Professor, I don't have much time to stay in school now, and I feel that the knowledge I have now is enough for me to graduate. So, I want to apply for graduation. "
Professor Roy thought for a while and said, "Well, William, your situation is a bit special, and your performance during this time has made me recognize your knowledge. I can apply to the school for you. If it's fast, you'll know the result in the afternoon. Wait for my call!"
William quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Professor. Thank you very much. I'll wait for your call."
"Well, I'll let you know if there's news. Goodbye, William."
"Okay, Professor. Goodbye."
After the call, Professor Roy hung up the phone. William got up and washed up. He sat on the sofa on the first floor and ate the breakfast that Lena left for him while thinking about what to say during his graduation thesis defense.
William read the knowledge in the system in his mind. Combined with the current situation of computers, William felt that he could talk about cloud storage. In fact, cloud storage had been around for a long time, but it was called network storage back then. Now, it didn't have such a nice and easy to understand name as cloud storage.
This kind of thing that would be commonplace in a decade or so was still a new thing now. Moreover, it was very easy to fool venture capital. He decided on this.
Other than eating takeout in the afternoon, William spent the rest of his time writing on the computer. He had to think that he couldn't write those things now. If it was too advanced, he wouldn't be able to live with himself. These were all money.
Moreover, he did not wish to be like Tesla, who was from the same era as Edison. He did not wish to be envied, hated, or treated as a monster because of his cleverness. It was fine as long as he was ahead by half a step. To him, who had the system, it was really too easy. It was not like William's graduation thesis in his previous life, which had tortured him to death.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, William received a call from Professor Roy. He was asked to come to the school's computer science department at three o' clock in the afternoon. The department would arrange for three professors to give him a thesis defense in the afternoon.
William put on his clothes and drove the Porsche 911 to the school. He drove at the highest speed and arrived at the school before two o 'clock.
Many people in the school had heard that William would come to the school for his graduation thesis defense in the afternoon. The venue for the thesis defense was a large multimedia classroom.
At three o 'clock in the afternoon, the professors came to the classroom on time. After everyone was seated, William, who had been waiting at the side, went up to the stage and greeted the three professors. The back of the classroom was full of students. William even saw a dozen reporters with cameras.
How did the reporters come in? William whispered to the head of the class today.
The Head of Dormitory said to William, "Actually, it's against the rules to hold your graduation thesis defense at this time. The school is afraid that people will cause trouble, so they let these reporters in. Today, a few of the reporters are from science magazines. If you pass the thesis defense, they will save you a lot of trouble."
William understood. The school didn't want a popular student like him to drop out because he didn't have time to come to school. A public thesis defense would allow William to graduate smoothly. The school would get many rich alumni as they wished. It would also stop the discussion in society.
After Professor Roy and William were ready, they said, "Okay, let's begin, William."
This thesis defense took William more than three hours. First, the three professors asked questions. Then, the chief editors of the science magazines started to ask questions. Fortunately, William had the help of the system. He could remember everything he learned in the system and understand it easily. This was probably talking about the life of a cheat.
The reason why William took so long was not because he couldn't say it, but because he had to be careful about what he said. He didn't want to suddenly reveal the technical knowledge of more than ten years in the future.
He could talk about the prospects, but if he were to talk about the specific technology, the professors and chief editors wouldn't be surprised. They would look at him like he was a monster.
In the end, when the professors and chief editors didn't ask any questions, William was relieved.
Professor Roy, who was sitting in the middle, discussed with the other two professors. Then, he stood up and discussed with the chief editors of the science magazines. After the discussion, Professor Roy sat at the head of the table and said to William,
"William Devonshire, after discussing with two professors and a few chief editors, we have unanimously decided that your graduation application has been approved. Congratulations, William."
Now, there was a warm applause. Everyone was impressed by William's performance. Many of the doctoral students felt that William's knowledge was higher than theirs.
William nodded to everyone and thanked them. "Thank you. Thank you, professors and chief editors. Thank you, thank you."
Professor Yi, who was sitting next to Professor Roy, said, "No, William, I don't think you need to thank us. With your performance today, I think you can apply for a doctorate. William, have you thought about continuing to study for a doctorate? I think with your current level, you can apply for a doctorate defense after staying in school for a year. "
Everyone in the classroom was shocked when they heard the professor say that William could graduate with today's defense. William Devonshire, you're going to go to heaven. We're still in our undergraduate studies, and now you're going to graduate with a doctorate. Is the gap between a genius and an ordinary person so big? And we're at the University of London. Anyone who can get into the University of London is not a top student.
A chief editor of a science magazine stood up and said, "I agree with the professor. William, the knowledge you have now is not something an ordinary doctoral student can master. I even think you can apply for an associate professor position at the University of London. We just asked a lot of popular technology, and many of your answers were groundbreaking ideas. I now admit that you're a genius. Congratulations, William."
