Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

"Ugh, life is just unbearable!"

Fang Jueyu woke up in the guest room of his villa, staring blankly at a Da Vinci painting hanging in front of him. Ever since those two little brats came, he had been sleeping alone for several days. Though full of energy, he felt a physical void.

He had just woken up when his phone rang. It was a call from Zhuo Shangke.

"Professor Zhuo, is there something you need from me? You've already given me a fantastic grade on my dissertation. You can't go back on it!"

"Do you really think I would do that? I've already entered your grades into the graduation system. If you don't believe it, check for yourself," Zhuo Shangke said. "I'm calling about something else."

"What is it? Is there another competition?" Fang Jueyu's voice instantly turned lazy. "Look, Professor Zhuo, I haven't been feeling well lately. For small tasks like these, you can just find Lu Chao and the other two. I've taught them a lot recently. Winning a world championship should be a piece of cake."

"It's not about a competition. It's about what I mentioned last time, the honorary professor selection," Zhuo Shangke said, his tone becoming more agitated.

As the head of the department, Zhuo Shangke held significant power but not absolute control.

At Jiangnan University, as the department head, he only had the right to nominate. Even though the principal agreed to this matter, it still required a vote from all faculty members above associate senior level.

The voting results were quite peculiar. Those with the title of academicians almost unanimously agreed to Fang Jueyu's application to become an honorary tutor at the university.

They say, it's hard to speak ill of anyone who feeds you. Each of them gained substantial research funding for their projects from the money Fang Jueyu donated to the university. Just for that, they couldn't not vote for him.

What's more, they all knew that the national plant gene modification technology was created by Fang Jueyu. This achievement had already passed the review of the Nobel Prize committee, and the results were waiting to be announced this year.

Even though it wasn't clear if Fang Jueyu was the one truly behind it, just having that honor easily justified giving him the honorary professor title. A Nobel Prize in Biology, what a high honor! An honorary professor title is nothing in comparison!

However, this information only circulated within the circle of academicians, and the regular professors and associate professors knew nothing about it.

A professor is usually judged primarily by their academic ability. It wasn't entirely false that Fang Jueyu brought the world university student network information security technology team and individual championship trophies back to the school, but it only proved his impressive personal ability and not predominantly his research skills. How could he become a professor just like that?

These professors and associate professors endured long years of struggle to achieve their senior and associate senior positions. In most universities, organizing at least one national-level research project is required to qualify for associate senior level.

But how many teachers are stuck at this point? Each year, applying for national funds feels like a thousand troops crossing a narrow bridge. Many fall, and only a few can secure funding. Then, they must have their own representative papers published, at the very least in SCI, tier one journals.

So by the time someone reaches this stage, they have already navigated significant challenges. Achieving associate senior status before 35 is considered impressive. Those who obtain an associate professor title before age 30 are regarded as remarkable individuals.

Fang Jueyu was only 21. In their eyes, he was far from reaching the level of accomplishment and age expected of a full senior title.

Since the vote was anonymous, more than 80% of faculty members above associate senior level voted against him, as the rules required at least 70% approval.

Zhuo Shangke relayed the situation seamlessly. He had assured Fang Jueyu, but now the school couldn't get on board, leaving Zhuo Shangke feeling a bit guilty.

"Professor Zhuo, do you mean they don't think I'm qualified to be a professor?"

Fang Jueyu wasn't really interested in the title. For fame, what could be bigger than being the richest person in the world? In terms of the benefits the title could bring, it was nowhere near as profitable as any of his companies.

As for honor, what could be more convincing than a commendation from a national leader?

"That's exactly it." Fang Jueyu had laid it out quite clearly, and he didn't need to speak on behalf of the school's faculty.

"Ha ha, doubting my research abilities, huh?" Although Fang Jueyu had Xiao Yi as his ultimate cheat code, there were many materials that, even if he possessed, he couldn't understand. After all, countless technologies are derived from foundational academic principles.

To get acquainted with these technologies, Fang Jueyu didn't neglect his knowledge accumulation while practicing the Potential Guiding Technique and various other skills.

In almost a year, the knowledge he acquired, while not encompassing all subjects and fields, had exceeded the limits of Earth's current civilization in twenty or thirty disciplines.

So much so, with just one article in any given field, he could generate significant buzz in the academic world.

"Professor Zhuo, pass on to the review committee this message for me—give me one week, and I'll showcase my academic level, and suggest they reevaluate my research accomplishments afterwards."

Although the title wasn't important, personal dignity was on the line. Weren't they underestimating him, thinking an undergraduate senior student wasn't fit to be a professor? Well, he would make them wholeheartedly vote for him!

"Are you serious?" Zhuo Shangke asked.

The simplest evaluation of research capabilities typically involves publishing results. Although reviews in high-grade journals could return swiftly, potentially within a week, the subsequent revisions, publishing processes, and so forth consume time. How would it be possible in a week?

"Professor Zhuo, just do as I say. By next week, you'll see everything unfold."

"Alright, I'll swallow my pride and appeal to the principal for you once more!"

...

"Hmm, what kind of paper should I publish?" Fang Jueyu pondered. It couldn't be too beyond current technological bounds but still had to shock the academic community. This was a tough choice.

"Low-cost graphene production method? That might work!" Graphene was the hottest material at the moment, but its production cost was very high. Even lower-quality variants were around 400 yuan per gram on the market, way more than gold.

However, Fang Jueyu had dozens of low-cost production methods, some making it possible to produce several grams for just a few cents.

"Principle of the anti-gravity system? No, no, too advanced. Let's choose another."

"Targeted drug carrier treatment for tumor cells, emmm, could it be too ahead of its time? The treatment efficiency is too high. Maybe I should lower it a little for an article."

"Detailed analysis of sow mating... With pork prices rising so sharply, it's very practical. It could make a top biology journal submission. But I wonder if foreign pork is as expensive?"
