"Thank you, Principal, thank you, School."

Within a month.

Four engineering subject exams encompassing all major courses.

They definitely won’t use test papers from previous years since it wouldn’t be convincing enough for outsiders. Thus, in his application, Tang Qing specifically emphasized that the exam content should trouble the School to create a brand-new set for him.

No restriction on difficulty.

Dozens of professional courses.

Covering everything from first-year to third-year.

Essentially.

The School would have to draft hundreds of new test papers together. Regarding this request, the School couldn’t help but look with admiration. This was evidently a rhythm of hard testing, and his boldness earned their respect.

Looking at Tang Qing.

Qiu Jie’s eyes were filled with the kind of affection an elder has for a promising younger generation.

Really wanted him as a grandson-in-law.

It’s a pity.

Tang Qing already has someone, and his granddaughter is still too young. Alas!

"Tang Qing, we are proud to have such an outstanding student like you. Now, the news of your master’s-doctorate continuous study plan has spread through the School. By the way, will you study under a specific doctoral supervisor later?"

Qiu Jie asked again.

Master’s-Doctorate continuous study.

It’s possible to study under a master’s supervisor, but for doctoral supervisors, there’s no need to change later.

Tang Qing shook his head, "I’ll pass. I will take all the School’s exams personally; as for supervisors, I might only select one. Otherwise, with their research topics and projects, I wouldn’t have time to follow through on everything."

A master’s degree.

A doctorate.

Both require participation in projects.

To be honest.

Speaking of projects, Tang Qing’s technology companies had countless ones. He truly didn’t have time to follow supervisors on some ’small projects’; he’d rather work on his own instead. After all, there were no strict requirements.

"Alright, it’s up to you."

Qiu Jie nodded.

To retain Tang Qing.

It went without saying that whatever Tang Qing wanted was fine, as long as it wasn’t too extreme.

After finishing the formal discussion.

Qiu Jie shifted the topic.

"Kid, lately your moves are getting bigger and bigger. Microcrystalline Technology’s financing reached $9 billion, and now the RMB exchange rate has dropped, which translates to nearly RMB 70 billion. Are you planning to spend it all?"

"What’s the point of holding onto it?"

Tang Qing spread his hands.

As if he were spending only RMB 700.

"Even the landlord’s family should save a little surplus grain." After holding it in for a while, lamenting the outrageous extravagance, Qiu Jie let out the traditional Huaxia-style sentiment. He was genuinely worried Tang Qing might mess things up.

Upon hearing this.

Tang Qing chuckled indifferently.

"Principal Qiu, times have changed. In the past, grain could only be bought locally. Now, there’s grain all over the world, and if it’s gone, we can borrow in an instant. So, instead of hoarding reserves, I’d rather invest it to plant even more grain."

Alright then.

Qiu Jie accepted this viewpoint.

After chatting a bit about daily life.

Qiu Jie said:

"Alright, I know you’re busy. Go take care of your own affairs. There are only four months left, and learning such a large volume of courses won’t be easy. Be sure to take care of your health; don’t push yourself too hard. You’re already very outstanding."

"Understood, Principal Qiu."

"Mm, off you go."

...

After Tang Qing left.

Qiu Jie dialed the Principal.

"How did it go?"

"Asked him. Tang Qing said there’s no problem. He’ll choose one doctoral supervisor and personally take the postgraduate entrance exams. Based on his National College Entrance Examination scores, I’m curious—will he hit near-perfect scores across the board?"

Recalling Tang Qing’s near-perfect National College Entrance Examination scores.

It’s truly possible.

"Perfect scores? English, maybe. Politics? No chance."

"Perhaps."

"Is he picking his own doctoral supervisor or...?"

"It’s still early."

"True, he’s only in his third year. Let’s discuss it when he’s in his fourth."

Afterward, Qiu Jie made calls to departments such as the Academic Affairs Office, instructing them to start preparing for Tang Qing’s examinations and academic processes. Five degrees—

the School’s procedures here were far from simple.

...

Nighttime.

In the villa.

After dinner, Tang Qing was in the study jotting down ideas, while Lin Jiaxue read next to him. Tang Qing’s brilliance motivated her to become a more outstanding version of herself too. The quiet, serene scene exuded warmth.

At eleven o’clock.

Tang Qing’s phone rang.

"Hello, Mr. Roberts," Tang Qing said.

On the other end was the representative of the primary underwriting firm. They had met in Switzerland and had a pleasant conversation.

"Mr. Tang, congratulations."

"Oh?"

"Microcrystalline Technology’s underwriting task has been successfully completed. All funds will be credited within a week, and after the IPO in one week, we’ll transfer the financing to Microcrystalline Technology as per the contract."

Stock subscription.

Especially for large clients.

They weren’t required to pay immediately but could do so within the stipulated timeframe.

"That’s great."

Upon hearing everything was sold,

Tang Qing wasn’t overly excited. Given the massive buzz created, if they couldn’t sell even that many shares, it would’ve been a failure, wouldn’t it? Selling out was good—it brought in yet another sum of money.

Although less useful.

Since many of the technologies were completed by scientists, research costs were low; it was just about utilizing them. Hence, at least a third of these funds would flow to Zhiya Natural Research Institute under the guise of research and development costs.

Being absorbed by Myanmar Bank Group.

Eventually.

Incorporated into Myanmar’s foreign exchange reserves.

The remaining two-thirds would be allocated for enterprise investments, ’real’ high-cost research and development, as well as cash reserves. Tang Qing didn’t plan to take any of the funds for himself. Otherwise... he’d have to pay taxes to the United States government.

Absolutely not.

To avoid taxes.

Tang Qing specifically adjusted Time’s profit distribution ratio.

Because the technology came from multiple sources, he controlled costs by skewing valuations. By assigning higher costs to a particular technology, it would serve as Microcrystalline Technology’s cost and be redirected to other overseas companies.

Take Time’s retail price of RMB 100,000, for instance.

Adjustment before:

Holographic Image cost: RMB 30,000.

Oriented voice transmission cost: RMB 30,000.

Profit: RMB 40,000.

50-50 split.

---

Adjustment after:

Holographic Image cost: RMB 30,000.

Oriented voice transmission cost originally RMB 30,000, adjusted to RMB 60,000.

Profit: RMB 10,000.

50-50 split.

In the former case, RMB 40,000 profit could only transfer RMB 20,000 to QingYang Audio. By contrast, the latter could transfer RMB 35,000 (RMB 30,000 + RMB 5,000). Legally, this posed no issues whatsoever.

Saved a significant amount in taxes.

’Epoch’ functioned similarly. Had they shipped directly to the United States at cost price, taxes would have been much higher. Emulating Apple, they utilized a midpoint company to increase pricing, then sold to their ’own company’ within the United States.

This way.

Much of the profits could legally remain outside the United States.

After hanging up.

Lin Jiaxue softly asked, "Tangtang, all sold out?"

"Yes."

"That’s wonderful." Lin Jiaxue responded with joy.

A man thriving in his career only made her happier.

"So wonderful? Come on, let’s celebrate." Tang Qing picked Lin Jiaxue up.

...

In the United States.

It was currently noon.

"In three hours, Microcrystalline Technology’s stock completely sold out! Tang Qing has set a new record."

"Nine billion dollars! Potentially the IPO of the year."

"In the backdrop of a financial crisis, Microcrystalline Technology has demonstrated that crises are relative. For truly valuable companies, brilliance shines regardless of circumstances."

"March 3rd! Microcrystalline Technology goes public—are you ready?"

"..."

With the underwriting firms pushing hard.

And signals from numerous investment tycoons.

Western media was full of praise.

Moreover.

There was honestly nothing to criticize.

Their ’Time’ product hadn’t gone public yet, and without being launched, quality issues couldn’t arise for criticism. Coupled with intensive efforts from the underwriters, Microcrystalline Technology amassed countless American investors.

Among them were top-tier financial behemoths.

Hence.

Prior to the IPO.

No one dared try to smear them.

Otherwise.

If prominent investors had just acquired shares, then someone caused losses by spreading negativity, could anyone still continue to play the game harmoniously in the future? Thus, with efforts from all sides, Microcrystalline Technology ignited a frenzy.
