The Academy of Sciences Received the Video!

In an ordinary room within the building of the National Academy of Sciences, the staff sitting in front of the computer wasn't looking at the screen in front of him. Instead, he took the chance when the night was not very busy to bend over the table and sleep.

In the quiet room, only the sound of regular snoring could be heard.

What the staff member who was sleeping did not know was that a new notification had appeared in the lower right corner of the screen in front of him. An email had been sent to them.

His usual job was mainly to handle all sorts of emails and messages.

After he sorted them out, he would send them to different departments according to their categories.

If the incoming email was from an internal staff member, it would be accompanied by a sound notification.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

The sound wasn't very loud, but it was enough to be heard by one's ears in a quiet room.

The staff's upper body was bent over the table. He was not in deep sleep, to begin with, so he was easily wakened by the constant beeping.

"Damn it, it's so late... who sending a message?"

The staff's head left the table, and he had no choice but to control the mouse to click on the message that had just been sent.

"It's an email again, can't it be sent during the day? Damn it!"

The staff member was very angry when he saw that it was a new email. If it was something urgent, the other party would normally contact him by phone instead of email.

The staff thought that the email must have been sent by a newcomer who had just joined.

The staff made a judgment in his heart. Although he was in a bad mood from being woken up, the movements in his right hand did not stop. He still clicked on the mouse to open the email.

Then, he saw a very eye-catching title appear on the screen.

[Urgent email, please check it immediately!]

"What the hell!"

When the staff saw the email that had just been sent had used such a very eye-catching title, he was momentarily stunned.

However, his duty was to sort out all kinds of new emails anyway.

Out of responsibility for his work, the staff still forwarded the email to President Hawking's assistant.

At the same time, in another room in the building, a girl wearing gold-rimmed glasses saw a new email appear on the screen in front of her.

When she heard a notification sound, the girl realized that the email was from a colleague.

"Sending an email at this time of night? It must be from that annoying guy, John!"

The girl wearing gold-rimmed glasses was President Hawking's assistant. She was usually responsible for organizing the President's non-personal emails and messages.

When she opened the email that she had just received, she was surprised to find that it was not from the annoying John, but from the staff of the Academy of Sciences who was in charge of daily work.

"Urgent email, please check it immediately!"

Seeing that the email was marked with a very eye-catching title, the girl did not hesitate and immediately opened the attached video in the email.

Soon, the interface of the video player appeared. It showed a person solving a problem on the blackboard.

When the girl saw the contents of the video, a look of disdain appeared on her face.

"So it's a video of solving a problem. I thought something new had happened to the alien starship!"

With a hint of disappointment in her eyes, she used the mouse to speed up the video playback.

As Professor Hawking's assistant, the girl was also a top student of a famous university.

However, she was not concerned about the difficult problem in the video. Instead, she wanted to finish watching the video and decide whether she should send it to President Hawking immediately.

The entire video lasted for 28 minutes.

At that time, the person who recorded the video was a staff member of the Academy of Sciences. Not only did he record the process of George solving the problem, but he also recorded the process of the professors and the top students present expressing their respect to George after he solved the problem.

The video was quickly dragged to the end by the girl. She saw that the scene in the video had changed. A few professors she knew seemed to be encouraging the person who solved the problem.

One of the professors was Professor Eugene, whom the girl was very familiar with.

Professor Eugene was patting a young man on the shoulder with his hand.

The girl seemed to be surprised by the scene in the video as she softly voiced out her doubts, "Professor Eugene, the academician of space physics, is expressing respect to a young man?"

All the scholars in the academic world knew what Professor Eugene's behavior in the video meant since it was a very famous practice at Yale University.

Every scholar who had made extraordinary achievements in their respective fields would receive the respect of other scholars.

At this moment, before the girl could recover from her shock, another person in the video appeared to express his respect for the young man.

"Oh my God, it's Professor Lodge, another academician!"

The girl finally understood what was going on. Although she didn't know the young man in the video who was solving the problem, it was a fact that she saw a few influential professors in the scientific world expressing their respect for the young man.

This had completely overturned the girl's understanding.

"Wow, to think those cold academicians and professors have such a humble side."

The girl wondered what the young scholar did in the video. She was driven by curiosity and immediately replayed the video in front of her.

The video returned to George solving the problem on the blackboard. The girl was also a graduate of a top university, thus it wasn't hard for her to notice George's speed in solving the problem after merely watching the video for a short while, though she wasn't entirely aware of the difficulty of the problem.

"Oh my God, such speed in problem-solving could've only been achieved by the President in his earlier days!"

The "President' the girl was talking about was the President of the Academy of Sciences, Stephen Hawking.

Stephen Hawking had long become famous in the scientific world. The President had won the highest science award alone when he was young.

Not long after, the girl finished watching the video and glanced at the time on the screen. She realized that it was already the time to rest at night.

As President Hawking's assistant, she was familiar with President Hawking's daily routine. If it wasn't something important, she wouldn't disturb President Hawking.

The girl looked at the video in front of her and weighed the pros and cons in her heart. She was thinking that if she didn't send the video to President Hawking immediately, she might be reprimanded by him the next day.

After confirming her thoughts, the girl didn't hesitate and immediately forwarded the video to President Hawking of the Academy of Sciences.

As the girl's fingers tapped on the mouse, the video of George solving the problem was thus sent to President Hawking's email.

After the girl finished doing this, her upper body sunk into the soft chair. She wondered how President Hawking would react when he watched the video.

Just as the girl was making wild guesses, in a villa near the suburbs of the city, an old man with a head full of silver hair was about to get up and leave the study to go to the bedroom to rest.

Suddenly, a few beeps came from the computer behind the old man, the sound especially clear in the silent night.

"Hmm? It's so late, who sent me a message?"

The old man was President Hawking of the Academy of Sciences. When he heard that there was a new email, he turned around and returned to the computer to open the email he had just received.
