Chapter 26: What the F*ck? The Scientists Around the World? Is This for Real?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As public opinion continued to solidify, audience members from all over the world joined in.
“Oh, so someone’s supporting him behind the scenes. That’s just too despicable. It’s a worldwide embarra.s.sment.”
“Hehe, with just a little thought, I can already tell that his past 20 years have been extremely mediocre. Yet, on the first day of partic.i.p.ation in the program, he shone brilliantly. Would you believe that there was no one helping him?”
“He was born in the slums, after all. Only a lowly person like that could do such a thing.”
“That means, from the beginning to the end, Raymond has known that he was partic.i.p.ating in a show? His performance has actually been flawless, though. I suggest that the Oscars immediately awards him a small golden statue once the show is over.”
“No matter how the other four contestants have performed, at least they haven’t been pretentious. Raymond, this is too despicable.”
“He’s not fit to be on the show. Get him out!”
On the bullet screen in the international broadcast room…
There was a lot of criticism directed toward Raymond on international social platforms.
However, there were also those who questioned it.
“But, who was helping Raymond behind the scenes? Based on how the global s.p.a.ce field has reacted, it seems that he has deduced the third, fourth, and fifth cosmic velocities, which is a really great achievement.”
Rational audience members saw this comment and pondered for a moment.
Soon, they felt that it made sense.
To say that Raymond was cheating to put on a show was really a little untenable.
You should know.
When Raymond deduced the fifth cosmic velocity and was proven to be successful, all the scholars and professors of the s.p.a.ce industry around the world cheered in excitement.
So many people had collaborated with Raymond to put on a show?
How ridiculous.
“Of course, it’s impossible for so many people to work together with Raymond to cheat. However, what if the improved rocket engine design, as well as the third, fourth, and fifth cosmic velocities, have already been deduced, but they just happened to use this program to showcase Raymond in front of the world?”
“That’s not impossible, but who has the ability to produce these theoretical results? Oh, my G.o.d, could it be…”
“NASA? ? ?”
“As everyone knows, the organization behind NASA has always had conflicts with the top ten consortia. In that case, it’s very likely that NASA used Raymond to cause trouble on this program.”
“That makes sense, that makes complete sense.”
The audience imagined the crazy situation as someone with ulterior motives pushed them in that direction.
The program team had originally chosen a random person to carry out the survival program, but they had taken into account the big game between NASA and the top ten consortia.
Nevertheless, people believed that statement.
…..
While the outside world was in turmoil, the cla.s.sroom was calm.
At that point, Raymond had already filled up dozens of A4 papers.
Looking at Raymond’s smooth writing, there were almost no hiccups.
It also made the audience more certain that he was cheating.
“D*mn, I can’t even do elementary school math problems that fast. How can he say that he isn’t cheating?”
“He must have memorized these things in his mind. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to write so fast.”
As for the young scholars, they were all terrified when they saw the scene.
“I feel like he’s not deducing the sixth cosmic velocity but doing elementary school math problems.”
“Yeah, his writing speed is really too fast. No wonder most people in the outside world think that he’s cheating.”
“The professors must be following the deduction process closely, hence they can’t be distracted. Otherwise, they might be able to change part of the public’s opinion.”
“Look at the other half of the screen. The tiger has arrived near Raymond’s university!”
In the s.p.a.ce laboratory building in the United States, several senior individuals were still gathered in the conference room, watching the live broadcast.
They were writing something quickly with a pen in their hands.
At that moment, Antonio Ian caught a glimpse of the other half of the live broadcast. The tiger had already arrived near the university where Raymond was.
“Nonsense!”
His expression changed. “This is too ridiculous! Don’t they know the significance of deriving the sixth cosmic velocity? This is a contribution to the entire human race! Contact the program team immediately and stop them.”
Many scholars from the British aeros.p.a.ce field gathered together as well.
They were also watching Raymond’s live broadcast.
“The outside world and the program team don’t want Raymond to continue his deductions, so they’ve arranged for a tiger to interfere with his activities. We can understand the program team’s decision, but we have to stop them.
“Not only that, we hope that everyone can utilize their connections and mobilize the experts, as well as professors in the fields of mathematics and physics, to work together. Everyone needs to put pressure on the program team and do their best to make them compromise!
“The sixth cosmic velocity is of great importance. If we can successfully deduce it, mankind will perhaps usher in a great boom of science and technology in the near future!”
“Okay.”
“No problem.”
At the same time, half of the screen showed a huge tiger being lured by professionals toward the university where Raymond was.
“The tiger is here. Things are starting to get interesting.”
“Will Raymond be scared sh*tless?”
“Haha, he brought this on himself. If it weren’t for his ‘show’, the program team wouldn’t have let the tiger out to interfere.”
..
“F*ck!”
Right then, the representative of Ross Financial Group, Sam, was very frustrated.
Not long ago, he had received a doc.u.ment.
The doc.u.ment was not any simple doc.u.ment.
It had been signed by professors from the world’s aeros.p.a.ce, mathematics, and physics fields. There were even dozens of n.o.bel prize winners among them.
He could not make a decision.
After pondering for a moment, Sam called the production team and asked them not to let the tiger roar for the time being.
Then, he reported the existence of the doc.u.ment to his higher-ups.
The higher-ups’ instructions were quickly conveyed.
“Tranquilize the tiger first. We’ll decide on the next step based on the situation.”
…..
Since the tiger did not roar for a long time, the audience in the international live broadcast room started to complain.
They complained that the program team was too inefficient.
At that moment, there was a sudden whoosh from the side of the broadcast with the tiger.
A needle had accurately hit the tiger’s neck, and it fell down close to the tiger.
“F*ck, what happened? Did you kill the tiger?”
“No, it should be tranquilizer, I guess?”
“WTF, what is the program team doing? Didn’t they say that they wanted to disrupt Raymond?”
In response to these comments, the host, Maggie gave a timely explanation. “Earlier, all the scientists around the world united and demanded that we not use the tiger to disturb Raymond. Out of helplessness, the program team could only temporarily tranquilize the tiger.”
“What the f*ck? The scientists around the world? Are you serious?”
“Let me say that these scientists are also idiots. If you really want to know, why don’t you just ask NASA?”
