Chapter 358: What Is There to Be Proud About?
Then, Chu Luo translated the principal’s words to them in the language of the countries where the principals were from.
The principal: “Regarding when the gaming capsule that our school is working with Blazing Glory will enter the open beta phase, this is still considered a confidential stage. Forgive me for not being able to tell you the exact time, but I can guarantee that before the empire’s new year, everyone will definitely see the birth of a miracle…”
Chu Luo translated what the principal said and her clear voice entered everyone’s ears.
Chu Luo translated quickly. She switched between several languages when the principal said one sentence. Even so, everyone could hear every word she said.
Instantly, the principals were shocked, the reporters around them were shocked, and even the curator and director were shocked.
The director suddenly patted the curator’s shoulder and said, “Old Chen, Old Tang brought Chu Luo, right?”
The curator said in a complicated tone, “I don’t know either. If it really is Chu Luo, she’s extremely intelligent.”
“That’s right. She’s so intelligent. You can call the translators from University G and tell them not to come… Chu Luo is a cute little vixen. Look at the fascinating expressions of those principals.”
“Also, the smile on Principal Tang’s face looks really annoying.”
“Haha…”
At ten o’clock, all the principals entered the hall.
What followed next didn’t concern Chu Luo and the interpreters brought by the other principals.
Everyone was arranged to go to the lounge at the side.
Chu Luo had been in the limelight just now. At this moment, the translation team all looked at her indescribably.
Some of them were still whispering.
Chu Luo simply put on her earpiece and connected to Roundy’s database. She listened to a local dialect that he had automatically recorded.
When everyone saw her put on her earpiece, they spoke loudly.
“So she’s Chu Luo. She’s indeed beautiful.”
“It’s fine if she’s beautiful, but she’s actually so incredible.”
“What’s so incredible about it? Maybe it’s all packaged. Didn’t she and the CEO of the Blazing Glory Corporation announce their relationship not long ago? The Blazing Glory Corporation is involved in all kinds of industries, especially in electronics. Who knows if she didn’t get someone to translate it and then replicate it?”
A few people chimed in.
“I don’t believe that she’s really that capable. Let’s not talk about language. In this world, have you ever seen a person who knows everything?”
“Exactly. An Internet expert, a medical genius, and a linguist. She’s not a robot. How can she learn so much?”
“To put it bluntly, she’s just using her looks.”
“Haha, of course. If she wants to be with the CEO of the Blazing Glory Corporation, besides her looks, she must also have brains. CEO Li is really generous to package her so well.”
“As the translator of the host, she actually doesn’t entertain us and just sits there alone… listening to songs? Looks like this person is relying on someone backing her and doesn’t take us seriously.”
“I hate such people the most. On the surface, they look innocent and harmless. Maybe she’s the Empire version of Sweetie XXX.”
“We’ll know whether she is or not when we test it out.”
Those women made a tacit decision to find a way to expose Chu Luo’s true colors later.
When some men heard the women’s discussion, they looked at Chu Luo differently. A few men’s eyes were filled with thorns.
…
The conference only lasted two hours in the morning.
Time passed quickly. Everyone waited obediently in the lounge.
At noon, everyone went out to meet the principals.
“Chu Luo.”
After most people had walked out, a woman walked up to Chu Luo and called out to her.
Chu Luo took off her earpiece and looked at her. The woman’s smile was very bright, but it didn’t reach her eyes.
The woman said to her enthusiastically, “The conference for this morning ended. I saw that you were still sitting here, so I came to remind you.”
Chu Luo nodded at her, thanked her, and stood up.
The woman said, “I’m a German translator brought by the principal of University B. My name is Enilan. I see that you speak Language G very well. How long have you studied this country’s language before?”
“Not long.”
After saying that, Chu Luo walked out of the door.
Enilan didn’t follow her. She stood there and suddenly asked in Language G, “Many people were suspecting your ability just now. Did you know?”
When Chu Luo heard this, she only stopped for a second before continuing to walk out of the door.
Enilan looked at Chu Luo’s back and snorted disdainfully. “Looks like you’re really a fool. Watch how I expose you later.”
With that, she followed with a confident smile.
Chu Luo walked to Principal Tang’s side.
Principal Tang happened to be chatting with a few principals at this moment. When he saw Chu Luo walking over, he smiled and said to her, “Chu Luo, we’ll go eat with Principal Bonilan, Principal Engus, Principal James, Principal Sekt, and Principal Richard later.”
Chu Luo nodded. “Okay.”
Then, she greeted the principals.
These principals were respectively from Russia’s University E, France’s University F, Korea’s University H, UK’s University Y, and Australia’s University A. They were all top ten universities.
Principal Bonilan looked at Chu Luo with admiration in his eyes. “Chu is very famous at our University E, especially in our school’s Computer Science Department. Many people treat you as a goddess.”
The corners of Chu Luo’s lips curled up. “It’s my honor to be liked by my seniors from Russia, a country known as the Temple of Computer Science.”
“Haha, you’re indeed a cute girl who’s outstanding both inside and out. As long as you want, our country’s University E welcomes you anytime.”
Principal Tang didn’t expect Bonilan to poach his student right in front of him. He was displeased and said sternly,
“Mr. Bonilan, our Imperial University’s Computer Science faculty isn’t inferior to your University E. Chu Luo can learn whatever she wants at Imperial University.”
“How is that possible? Does Imperial University have XX technology and XXX technology?”
The two computer technologies that Principal Bonilan had mentioned happened to be ones that Imperial University had yet to conquer. When Principal Tang heard this, his face darkened.
Principal Bonilan was smug.
When Chu Luo saw this, the corners of her lips curled up. She said, “Although our Imperial University doesn’t have XX technology or XXX technology, our Imperial University has YY technology and YYY technology. These two technologies just happen to be suitable for future holographic technology. As a special technician hired by Blazing Glory Gaming Corporation, I think it’s more convenient for me to stay at Imperial University.”
Everyone was shocked by Chu Luo’s words.
“When did Chu become a special employee of Blazing Glory Gaming Corporation?”
Some people suddenly thought of Chu Luo and Li Yan’s relationship and looked at her strangely.
Principal Engus was a bearded middle-aged man who looked very stern. When he heard Chu Luo say this, he frowned and revealed displeasure in his eyes. He said,
“Blazing Glory Gaming Corporation didn’t announce that you will be entering the research and development department of the gaming capsule as a special employee. What’s there to be proud of about you entering through the back door?”
“Backdoor?” Chu Luo’s expression turned serious. “I didn’t get in through the back door.”
“No. Everyone knows which technicians Blazing Glory has.”
Benilan chimed in, “Speaking of special employees, Blazing Glory Gaming Corporation does have one special employee. That is, the champion of this summer’s ‘Battle of Lightyears’ World Championship, Bai Ling from the team Phoenix Skies Legend.”
“That’s right. Bai Ling’s gaming skills were really amazing. Let me tell you…”
The two principals actually started talking about Bai Ling and became more and more excited.
Principal Tang turned to look at Chu Luo. Worried that she would think too much, he said to her in a low voice, “Little Chu, don’t mind them. They’re like this. Just take it that they can’t stand seeing such a capable student like you at Imperial University.”
When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips curled up but she didn’t say anything.
The other three principals stood at the side and watched the show, having no intention of interrupting.
After a while, Chu Luo said, “Principal, you should remind them to go eat. After that, we can go back and rest for a while.”
Principal Tang nodded and said to the two principals, “Bai Ling is indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful she is, she’s not a student of any of our schools. So, guys, we should go eat now.”
The two principals who were discussing enthusiastically choked when they heard this.
Bonilan had originally planned to find Bai Ling and invite her to study at University E, so he smiled smugly again. He said to Principal Tang, “Tang, after the conference, I’ll go to Imperial University to take a look. You’ll welcome me, right?”
When Principal Tang heard this, he felt that Bonilan definitely hadn’t given up on poaching Chu Luo to their school. He sneered in his heart.
If you want to poach our students from Imperial University, see if I don’t make you suffer before you go back.
However, he didn’t show it on his face. “Of course, we welcome you.”
After saying that, the two of them smiled meaningfully.
