Chapter 208 This isn't a blind date, it's an emotional clash.
Renxin Resort has now become the most magical scenic spot in Changxiang City.
The hot spring resort, which once marketed itself as "high-end, private and luxurious", has now completely gone astray.
Looking around, dozens of hot spring pools have all turned a dreamy pink, bubbling and gurgling, and the air is filled with a... sweet smell similar to peach hard candy.
In the pool, a group of wealthy and famous people whose combined net worth could buy half of Changxiang City were dressed in identical white bathrobes, completely absorbed in the moment.
Some sit cross-legged with their eyes closed, palms facing upwards, chanting incantations as if they are about to ascend to heaven at any moment.
Some of them stretched out their limbs, gently paddling in the water, with compassionate and peaceful smiles on their faces, looking just like a pool of old turtles that had attained enlightenment ahead of time.
Tu Jinshan stood by the pool, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, his hair almost pulled out bald by himself.
"Chairman Wang! You've finally arrived!" Upon seeing Wang Minyu, he rushed over as if he had seen a savior.
Wang Minyu got out of the car, glanced at the massive "collective ascension" scene, and his expression didn't change much.
"The situation is better than I expected."
"Good? This is good?" Tu Jinshan was almost in tears. "They've been soaking for twelve hours! They haven't eaten, haven't drunk water, haven't gone to company meetings, haven't even looked for their mistresses, they just want to 'listen to the breath of the universe' here! If they keep soaking like this, they'll be dehydrated and turned into dried meat!"
"I won't die." Wang Minyu walked to the edge of a pool, squatted down, dipped his finger in the pink "hot spring water," and smelled it.
An extremely strong "love" aura, a mixture of dopamine, endorphins, and phenylethylamine, rushed straight to the top of my head.
The "mother" is treating the entire resort as its "emotional petri dish".
After absorbing the energy from the "Jade Soup," it begins to actively secrete these biological hormones that can produce extreme pleasure and happiness, treating these guests as its "emotional rechargers."
It uses this method to alleviate its "sadness" at losing its "partner".
"Alright, stop howling." Wang Minyu stood up and took out the smooth, round blue crystal from his pocket.
"Go and fetch Situ Zhen for me."
Soon, the top sound engineer with panda eyes ran out of the underground control room.
"Dr. Wang! That 'child'...it's grown up!" Situ Zhen exclaimed excitedly, holding a printed spectrogram in his hand. "It's not singing songs anymore, it's singing poetry! I translated a part of it; it's about 'waiting' and 'fusion'! This is practically a cross-species version of Divine Comedy!"
"Alright, let's put literary appreciation aside for now." Wang Minyu handed him the blue crystal. "See this?"
"This is... the crystallization of the 'father'?" As the one who listened in the whole time, Situ Zhen naturally knew what had happened in the Third Academy.
"Yes. Now, I have a new task for you." Wang Minyu pointed to the ground, "Find a way to broadcast the 'frequency' of this crystal to me through your sound system."
Situ Zhen was stunned for a moment: "Broadcast it? This...this is the frequency of 'reason,' which completely clashes with the purely 'emotional' frequency below! It's like...like suddenly starting to play a lecture recording of 'Advanced Mathematics' on a loop at a poetry reading! Something bad will happen!"
"I want things to go wrong." Wang Min-yu's tone left no room for argument. "Doesn't it like 'dating'? Today I'll let it experience what 'incompatible values' really means."
"Won't this...won't this drive it crazy?"
"Even if it's crazy, it's better than turning my resort into a giant pyramid scheme." Wang Minyu patted Situ Zhen on the shoulder. "Go for it, kid. The first-ever 'cross-dimensional If You Are the One' in human history is yours to host."
Situ Zhen looked at the crystal in his hand, then at Wang Minyu's face that screamed "Hurry up!" Finally, he gritted his teeth, turned around, and rushed back to the underground control room.
Wang Minyu leisurely moved a beach chair to the poolside and sat down, also asking Tu Jinshan to open a bottle of iced cola for him.
"Mr. Wang... is that... all done?" Tu Jinshan looked at his relaxed appearance and felt uneasy.
"Just wait and see." Wang Minyu took a sip of cola. "It's a blind date; both sides need time to get to know each other."
About ten minutes later.
From the basement of the resort, a very faint, almost imperceptible hum could be heard.
That was Situ Zhen activating the giant sound system.
At first, there was no change in the hot spring pool.
Those "enlightened masters" remain immersed in their own world.
But gradually, the sweet, juicy peach scent in the air began to fade.
Instead, there was a... cool and dry smell, similar to the smell of old books and printer toner mixed together in a library.
The pink pool water gradually lightened in color, as if it had been injected with some kind of "clarifying agent".
The first person to "wake up" in the pool was Mr. Chen, the head of the Provincial Department of Culture and Health.
This retired cadre, who was usually very health-conscious, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze blank. He looked at his hands, which had turned white from being soaked in water, and then at his companions who were still "daydreaming" around him, a look of extreme confusion on his face.
"I...I think I just...had an epiphany?" he murmured to himself. "I realized that the essence of the universe is...a rigorous set of integral formulas?"
Then, the second, the third...
More and more people are "losing touch" with that blissful, emotional state.
A real estate tycoon, who usually loved to dabble in sophisticated pursuits, stood up with a serious expression and said to a female celebrity next to him who was still performing a flying dance, "Ms. Li, your movements are not ergonomic. Long-term practice will lead to a herniated disc. I suggest you switch to practicing the eighth set of broadcast gymnastics, which is more scientific."
The female celebrity stopped dancing, frowned, and looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze: "Mr. Zhao, I think you should be more concerned about your price-to-earnings ratio. Your company's financial report last quarter was very poor."
"puff--"
Wang Minyu almost spat out his cola.
Good guy.
The clash between the frequencies of the "mother" and the "father" didn't drive them crazy, but it did cause these guests' brains to "split up".
Half of her is a romantic, emotional person, and the other half is a rational, argumentative person.
The atmosphere instantly shifted from "attaining enlightenment and ascending to heaven" to "academic debate."
"What... what's going on?" Tu Jinshan stared in disbelief.
"Don't rush, the person in question hasn't made a statement yet." Wang Minyu's gaze was fixed on the ground beneath his feet.
"Boom!"
The earth began to tremble slightly.
It wasn't a violent shaking, but rather a kind of...irritating, impatient trembling.
It's like someone sleeping with mosquitoes buzzing in their ear all night, finally unable to resist turning over in bed.
The pool water stopped bubbling pink bubbles and began to churn violently, and the water temperature rose rapidly.
A powerful, chaotic mental fluctuation suddenly emanated from underground.
This time, it's neither a love poem nor a love song.
Instead, it was a roar filled with confusion, anger, and grievance.
"Who are you?!"
Why is there no flowers, no wind, only a bunch of annoying numbers in your voice?!
"Shut up! Don't calculate anymore! If you do, I'll... I'll..."
"I'm ignoring you!"
Hearing the almost "coquettish threat" voice in his mind, Wang Minyu finally couldn't help but laugh.
He stood up, walked to the edge of the pool, and spoke to the churning water as if he were talking to a sulking child.
"Alright, stop fooling around."
I know you're lonely.
"So, I've brought you a 'private tutor'."
"From now on, we will study math every morning."
"Let's talk about love this afternoon."
"You must learn to balance work and rest, and develop in all aspects."
As soon as he finished speaking, the tremors on the ground miraculously subsided.
The churning pool water gradually returned to calm.
The water turned back to its clear, light green color, exuding a faint fragrance.
The voice of the "mother" in my mind disappeared.
Instead, a tearful report came from the underground control room, delivered by Situ Zhen.
"Dr. Wang... Dr. Wang! They... they've started... communicating!"
"One is reciting the multiplication table, and the other is... adding background music!"
Wang Min-yu nodded in satisfaction.
well.
This is the most stable emotional relationship.
One is responsible for reasoning, and the other is responsible for appealing to emotions.
One CPU, one emotion renderer.
perfect.
"Boss Tu," Wang Minyu said, turning around to the petrified Tu Jinshan.
"Yes, Chairman Wang!"
"Pass the word that starting tomorrow, our resort will be launching two new projects."
"What project?"
"The morning session is called 'The Light of Logic,' which is specially designed to cure romantic overthinking. After you've finished, I guarantee you'll be calmer than an AI."
"The afternoon session is called 'Fountain of Sensibility,' a cure for those who are easily agitated. After soaking, you're guaranteed to become sentimental and want to cry at everything you see."
Wang Minyu paused for a moment, then added.
"Oh, and remember to note that on the price list."
"Morning and afternoon sessions have different prices."
