Chapter 468: Got the News
At the same time.
A.M. Computing Institute.
“What are you doing organizing a competition in a hurry?”
Si Chengyan asked gloomily.
He had been counting the participants since yesterday.
“What else is it for? If you were fancied, would I need to go through so much trouble?” Zhong Shenglin chuckled.
Hearing this, Si Chengyan immediately understood. “Is it because Nance wants to organize a competition?”
“What else?”
Zhong Shenglin glanced at him and said faintly.
“That’s true. Where would we be able to get so much prize money?”
Si Chengyan nodded.
Zhong Shenglin was speechless.
Was this little brat asking for a scolding again?
Then…
Before Zhong Shenglin could find fault with him, Si Chengyan paused. When he saw the name of someone who had signed up, he could not help sneering.
“This Hong Chongzhen is really shameless. Hong Chongzhen is actually letting Cheng Zihuai participate in our A.M. Computing Institute’s competition.”
“Cheng Zihuai is the intern?” Zhong Shenglin had a slight impression of him.
“Yeah. This is too strange. Is Hong Chongzhen lacking this bit of money? Why did he let Cheng Zihuai participate in our competition?”
Si Chengyan raised an eyebrow. “You have to know that Cheng Zihuai is his disciple now.”
“What other reason could there be? He should have gotten the news.” Zhong Shenglin was calm and composed, not in a hurry at all.
Hearing this, Si Chengyan’s body froze. “The news? Then isn’t he here for the position of the heir?”
“So what if it is so? I didn’t say that the prize for first-place is a successor spot.” Zhong Shenglin chuckled.
This old thing, Hong Chongzhen, had scolded Ge’er in public and wanted his student to run for the heir?
Dream on!
“Nance doesn’t even like you. Are you afraid that he will like Cheng Zihuai?” Zhong Shenglin glanced at him.
Si Chengyan was speechless.
There was no need to mention this matter.
“Does an heir have to have outstanding computing skills?” Si Chengyan was curious.
“Of course, other heirs don’t have to, but Higgins Group is more special. This is a corporation that relies on scientific research.”
Zhong Shenglin clicked his tongue. “The ability of the future heir will directly affect the lifeblood of the Higgins family.”
Zhong Shenglin slowly picked up the ingredients in the hotpot with his chopsticks. “Tsk, look. Nance has only left the Higgins family for ten years, but the Higgins family has already fallen to such a state.”
However, more than ten years ago, among the four major families, only the Higgins family was not a century-old noble family and did not have much family background, but they were still extremely influential. What did they rely on? It was Nance’s irreplaceable scientific research technology.
“But now? With Nance gone, the Higgins family has been going downhill. From the second son to the current third and fourth son, they are almost officially out of the four major families.”
“But only scientific research technology can’t change the current state of the Higgins family, right?” Si Chengyan said
Internal strife and external chaos were the current situation of the Higgins family.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Nance had left so much assets behind, the Higgins family probably wouldn’t even last ten years.
“Yeah, no matter where the heir is from, the heir’s methods and connections are very important. So I also think it’s strange that Nance must have some crazy idea to find a young heir.”
Zhong Shenglin ate a meatball and said slowly.
Who knew…
Suddenly, the door was kicked open.
“Old Zhong, what do you mean? Am I crazy?”
The old man, who was hiding and eavesdropping, could not listen anymore and came in angrily.
