Chapter 789
Chapter 789: Chapter 12: Ghost Cry_3 Chapter 789: Chapter 12: Ghost Cry_3 The problem is the same old issue…[the irreversible anchor point].
Even if I were to write a will right now and pay for safe deposit box 1277 in full, explaining everything clearly, The Fifth Dreamland wouldn’t change in the slightest.
Not until safe deposit box 1277 is actually produced and my belongings are stored in it.
That is when the irreversible anchor point would truly be formed.
From that moment on, the safe deposit box 1277 in The Fifth Dreamland would become mine.
Maybe in the year 2397?
2399?
Either is possible.
But in any case, Lin Xian can’t wait, can’t wait for that time to come.
This is the rigor of [Spatiotemporal Logic] and [Space-time Law]…
No wonder Huang Que mentioned over and over how important this thing is.
Looking at it now, it really is important.
If one understands the Space-time Law well enough, deeply enough, many things don’t need to be tried out, don’t require taking risks, don’t need trial and error, you can deduce whether something is feasible or not.

The current situation is just that.
Because of the strict and demanding Space-time Law, I really can’t interfere with those safes that have yet to appear.
But.
Should I just give up like this?
Is there a way to ensure that Gao Wen’s safe continues to exist while at the same time making the Space-Time Clock’s readings change again, to obtain the temporal curvature data once more?
Lin Xian closed his eyes.
He began to recall some overlooked details.
He remembered the safe deposit box 1277 that he and Grandpa Wei Shengjin dug up in The Fifth Dreamland.
Recall…
Recall…
Recall…
It seems, the typeface used for the names on the nameplates was slightly different!
He opened his eyes.
He walked over to safe deposit box number 66, his own safe, and looked at his name engraved on the nameplate.
This is the standard [Wei Microsoft YaHei].
Having studied design, he could spot such differences in typeface at a glance.
And in The Fifth Dreamland, on the nameplate of safe deposit box 1277, the name Pang Ya had strokes that were clearly sharper.
It appeared that the typeface should be something akin to [Songti].
The change in typeface was probably also related to the passage of time.
Perhaps hundreds of years later, the Wei Microsoft YaHei typeface was obsolete?
Or is it because of copyright and other reasons, it couldn’t be used anymore?
Anyway.
For some reason, the typeface on the Hafnium Alloy Safe’s nameplate really had changed over the centuries of business operation.
Lin Xian tried hard to remember the photo that Grandpa Wei Shengjin showed him, on which…
Grandpa Wei’s nameplate was still Wei Microsoft YaHei.
That is to say, at least until safe deposit box 724, the names were engraved using the Wei Microsoft YaHei font.
Naturally, Gao Wen’s safe used Wei Microsoft YaHei as well.
This is perfect!
Lin Xian thought of a way that wouldn’t affect Gao Wen’s safe but could trigger the occurrence of Temporal Flux once again—
[All we need is to strictly stipulate that all future safes at Tem Bank must use the Wei Microsoft YaHei font to engrave customer names, then the name on safe deposit box 1277 will definitely be changed to Wei Microsoft YaHei!]
It doesn’t matter whether safe deposit box 1277 still belongs to Pang Ya or not.
Lin Xian doesn’t care.
All he needs to confirm is that if any change occurs to the dug-up safe, then Liu Feng’s Space-Time Clock values will change again.
That’s the key!
“Brother Wang.”
Lin Xian pulled over Brother Wang, pointing to the typeface of the name on the safe:
“This font is Wei Microsoft YaHei, right?”
“Yes, it should be.” Brother Wang didn’t pay much attention:
“There…
There shouldn’t be any copyright infringement, right?
Does this count as commercial use?”
Lin Xian smiled faintly:
“It’s hard to say, these days there are many cases of font copyright infringement.
How is this nameplate engraved?
By hand or with a laser?”
“Definitely with a small laser machine.” Brother Wang said:
“Where can you find someone who can hand engrave these days…
But you have a point, there are disputes over font copyrights every year.
We haven’t paid for the Wei Microsoft YaHei font, but if they were to come to us, we would certainly be willing to pay the copyright fees.”
“Also, I don’t really understand, whether this kind of thing counts as infringement or not.
Should I ask the legal advisor about it?
Ah, Lin Xian, you’re attentive, I never considered this issue.”
“The work of laser engraving we outsourced to a third-party company.
Whenever we need a name engraved, I call them over; I never looked into the matter of font rights.
But I think, since that company is in this business, they must have purchased the rights to use Wei Microsoft YaHei, right?”
Lin Xian nodded:
“Maybe that company has it, but…
the goal of Tem Bank is to operate for hundreds of years, to provide long-term safe deposit services for people.
We can become a centuries-old brand.
Can that laser engraving company do the same?”
“Even if we have already increased the number of safes and found a new company for laser engraving, I believe they most likely also have the Wei Microsoft YaHei font rights.
It’s just…

In the span of hundreds of years, what might happen is unpredictable to everyone.”
“What if one day, because of some dispute, or there appears to be a copyright issue, causing the whole world to be unable to legally use Wei Microsoft YaHei?
Then at that time, when we engrave customer names…
wouldn’t we have to adopt a completely new font?”
“Right, right, right.”
Brother Wang rubbed his hands as he realized the issue.
He was a perfectionist with obsessive-compulsive tendencies.
He was involved in the meticulous design of every nook and cranny of those Hafnium Alloy Safes, how could he have overlooked the detail of the font?
