Chapter 140 - 140 New Shop Opening; Congratulations!
140 New Shop Opening; Congratulations!
After Lin Fan hung up the phone, he started to search for relevant news online.
It turned out that the Earthquake Center had already released the news of the earthquake prediction device, and People’s Daily had even praised him.
However, Lin Fan’s photo was not published online.
That was why Lin Xiaoyao called to ask.
Lin Fan rubbed his slightly deflated stomach and walked straight to the front of the Bugatti Veyron. He then sat on it.
Boom!
He did not have the time to observe the new car. He stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.
Lin Fan ate some food and went straight to Jiangbei University.
At this moment, a bright banner was hung in front of the gate of Jiangbei University.
‘Congratulations to our school’s Lin Fan for his invention of the earthquake prediction device!’
Last time, when he solved Zhou’s Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture, Lin Fan had the same experience.
Therefore, he did not pay too much attention to it.
Dorm 104.
Zheng Jinbao was so focused on his game that he did not notice Lin Fan when he entered.
Not long after, Ma Zhong walked in with a few books.
When he saw Lin Fan, he could not help but say, “Brother Lin Fan, you’re back? That earthquake…”
However, before he could finish, Zheng Jinbao, who was originally focused on playing the game, jumped up and said, “Brother Lin Fan, did you invent the earthquake prediction device?”
Lin Fan looked at his excited expression and could not help but laugh. “Other than me, who else could it be?”
“F*ck!” Zheng Jinbao shouted.
“F*ck!” Ma Zhong also called out.
When they found out that the earthquake prediction device was invented by Lin Fan of Jiangbei University, they suspected that it was their roommate even though they did not see the photo.
However, even after Lin Fan confirmed it, they were still shocked.
After all, that was an earthquake prediction device!
A high-tech product that no one in the world had invented.
In the end, it was actually invented by their roommate!
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside.
Before Song Yi arrived, his voice was heard first. “What are you guys shouting about?”
When he saw that it was Lin Fan, he shouted, “Brother Lin Fan, you invented the earthquake prediction device, right?”
Then, Song Yi took a big step forward and opened his arms to embrace Lin Fan.
Lin Fan quickly retreated to the side and nodded, “I invented it. But don’t get too excited. I don’t have any special preferences.”
“Brother Lin Fan.” Song Yi scratched the back of his head. “Can you tell us what that earthquake prediction device looks like?”
Zheng Jinbao and Ma Zhong p.r.i.c.ked up their ears.
Obviously, they were also very interested in this.
Lin Fan said, “You’ve all seen it.”
“Huh?” The three of them were puzzled.
“A few days ago, wasn’t there a black box here?” Lin Fan said.
The three of them nodded.
“That’s the earthquake prediction device,” said Lin Fan.
“F*ck!” Zheng Jinbao, Ma Zhong, and Song Yi all widened their eyes and howled loudly.
At this moment, Lin Fan’s phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID. It was a call from his good friend from Shanwu Village, Chi Zengyi.
Lin Fan and Chi Zengyi had exchanged contact information when Lin Fan went back to Shanwu Village to celebrate his grandfather’s birthday.
“Lil Yi, did you hear about the earthquake prediction device?” Lin Fan asked with a smile.
“What earthquake prediction device?” Chi Zengyi asked.
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment before saying, “Ah… It’s nothing. Oh right, why did you call me today?”
“Oh, I opened a barbecue restaurant in Jiangbei today. Come and try it when you’re free!” Chi Zengyi said.
Some people would often pay attention to online news because they had free time.
Some people spent all their time working hard.
Lin Fan smiled. “Really? Then I definitely have to go over! Where’s the location? Send the address to me.”
“Alright,” Chi Zengyi said.
After hanging up the call, Lin Fan chatted with his roommates for a while before heading to the place Chi Zengyi had mentioned.
When Lin Fan pa.s.sed by a flower shop, he bought a flower basket for the opening ceremony.
When he arrived at a traffic light not far away, his phone rang again.
“There are so many calls today,” Lin Fan muttered.
“Brother Lin Fan, you’re really amazing! Not only did you solve two math problems, but you also invented an earthquake prediction device! This is a divine piece of equipment!”
It was the voice of the leader of Jiangbei City, Jiao Yang.
Last time, Jiao Yang went to Jiangbei University and did not talk much with Lin Fan.
However, they still exchanged contact details.
Lin Fan said, “That’s just a small invention. Brother Jiao, you flatter me. How can this be considered a divine piece of equipment?”
Jiao Yang immediately refused.
“This isn’t considered a divine piece of equipment?
“Let’s talk about the recent events first. During New Year’s Day, if it weren’t for your earthquake prediction device, three consecutive earthquakes would have directly or indirectly caused many injuries. Countless a.s.sets would’ve been lost!
“Let’s talk about the future. No one knows when a major earthquake will occur. The earthquake prediction device will play a role in saving countless people!”
Jiao Yang’s tone became extremely high.
It was as if he was singing praise to a great savior.
Savior?
Perhaps, the earthquake prediction device could really be called a savior at some point in time!
“Also, only our country has the technology to predict earthquakes. We can use it to raise our international status!” Jiao Yang said.
“Lin Fan, you’re Hua Nation’s hero!”
Jiao Yang’s tone became more enthusiastic when he said this.
If he was the one who invented the earthquake prediction device, Jiao Yang felt that his future would be bright.
Unfortunately, he was not.
Since that was the case, he had to befriend Lin Fan.
Jiao Yang had already prepared for this.
Lin Fan rubbed his nose and said, “Brother Jiao, did you call to praise me?”
“I called to congratulate you! Are you free later? I’m going to organize a celebration party for you with the leaders of Jiangbei! After all, you’re a student of Jiangbei University, and we’ve benefited from you again!” Jiao Yang laughed heartily.
“Later?” Lin Fan asked. “I’m afraid that won’t do. My good friend opened a shop, and I’m going over to support him.”
Jiao Yangyan was not disappointed.
On the contrary, his eyes lit up.
“Is that so? Anyway, it’s time to get off work. Let’s go and support your friend together,” Jiao Yang said.
In fact, when Jiao Yang saw Lin Fan sitting next to Qin Weiming, he wanted to befriend him.
Later on, during Lin Fan’s grandfather’s birthday celebration, Jiao Yang made a decision on this idea. Unfortunately, he never found a suitable opportunity.
Now that Lin Fan had invented the earthquake prediction device, Jiao Yang was even more eager to befriend Lin Fan. At the same time, he found another opportunity.
Jiao Yang waited until New Year’s Day ended before making a call.
“Alright,” Lin Fan said. “I’ll send you the address later.”
