"Welcome, welcome, you must be Professor Li, right? My Mu Cheng has been naughty since childhood, she must have caused the teachers a lot of trouble, oh, Professor Li, you have quite the dark circles under your eyes. You must have been too busy teaching the kids, and haven't been resting well lately?"

No sooner had they been ushered into the box than a well-dressed man came up to greet Li Jian Gao with warm banter.

Li Jian Gao gave a wry smile.

He indeed had not slept well the night before.

He hadn't slept well for several days, and just last night, after finishing all his work, he had hoped to get a good night's sleep.

But then a phone call from Zhang Chunlei had kept him awake again.

Of course, he wouldn't tell all this to the man he had just met, but he still subconsciously started to praise Qiao Ze by his side, "Mr. Su is too kind. It wasn't because of teaching, mainly it's because Qiao Ze wrote a paper, and I stayed up late helping him submit it."

"Mm, Qiao Ze, hello! Thank you for taking care of my Mu Cheng at the school."

Seizing the moment, Su Lixing naturally turned his gaze towards his daughter and the young man named Qiao Ze by Li Jian Gao's side.

Inevitably within view was the image of Su Mucheng tightly holding Qiao Ze's hand and the warning look in his precious daughter's eyes.

He couldn't help but reveal a wry smile himself.

Motherfucker...

Being extroverted is fine, but acting like a thief on guard against her own dad, what the heck is that about?

What surprised him was that this young man, Qiao Ze, appeared extremely calm, not the least bit uncomfortable.

And Su Lixing was certain, it wasn't a feigned composure but a calm that came from the bottom of his heart.

This truly surprised Su Lixing. Just this composure alone, the boy might indeed be someone notable in the future.

"Hello." Qiao Ze nodded politely to Su Lixing and replied courteously.

Su Lixing was slightly taken aback.

Finally, someone had made this exceptionally talented young man bow his head.

But actually, he didn't want it to be for this reason.

After some thought, Ackerman Konetz said with a smile, "This is why I always wanted you to take your subjects more seriously! You never know whether someone in some corner of the world is doing the same thing, perhaps even progressing faster than us. But you shouldn't be discouraged, my child. Today, I think I should teach you a new lesson."

Hearing this, Kori Durant instinctively raised his head and looked at his mentor.

"This lesson is about the importance of discourse power! Kori, you're young and extremely talented; I originally planned to talk about this with you when you get your degree and start climbing higher. But this occasion seems to be an opportunity."

"I hope that after this, you will truly understand some things. Then you'll work harder. Because if we want to continue to maintain enough discourse power, we need talented young men like you to keep striving, to be able to replace us after we're gone."

Having said this, Ackerman Konetz picked up his phone in front of Kori Durant and made several calls in a row.

He asked the same question to each, inquiring if they had heard of the two authors listed in the paper.

Kori Durant could hear his boss receiving a bunch of "NOs."

The last call, Ackerman Konetz made to a colleague, even a competitor.

"Hello, Professor Stein, my old friend, how have things been going?"

"Haha, indeed I have a small favor to ask of you."

"I assume you must have received an invitation to review a paper recently... well, check your email, the paper is titled 'A Mathematical Framework for Self supervised Learning Based on Group Theory.'"

"Yes, a submission from two people from Huaxia."

"No, no, no, I think there are some serious logical errors in the paper that need redoing or something else... of course, I will respond the same way."

"Thank you. Oh, and do you remember that night in Bordeaux? It was truly memorable; perhaps we should go on holiday together again when we have some free time. I like the French romance and passion."

"Mm, I look forward to it as well. Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Ackerman Konetz looked at Kori Durant and then passed the paper back to him.

"Alright, use my email to reply to the editorial office. Find some reason to ask them to revise or resubmit the crucial parts of the argument; in short, don't bother too much. Soon you will see the humble reply from those without discourse power. You might even be able to join the research.

That's the way the world works; that's the power of discourse power. Kori, in the future, you will understand a lot. In fact, I've been very low-key; if you were at Princeton or Harvard, you'd know that the competition there is even more brutal, and they employ even more tactics!"

"And my expectations for you are even higher. I even hope that one day German mathematics journals will become absolutely mainstream! Unfortunately, I probably won't see it. But I hope your generation can achieve it."
