I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 31: Gu Shao seemed to have completed forgotten that Lin Xi is a 14-year-old junior high school student who needs to go to school. (1)

Looking at the prize amount, Gu Nians eyes widened and her jaw almost fell off. She rubbed her eyes and counted the number of zeroes again. She was right, 1,000,000 yuan.

A million-yuan prize money for one competition? That was too good to be true, right?

Lin Xi couldn't help but grumbled to herself.

With this amount of money, it would not only last her through her studies. If she could save enough of it, she and her father just might have enough to support themselves for the rest of their lives should Gu Shao truly go bankrupt because of Lin Yize.

Lin Xi was already daydreaming about her wonderful life after winning the prize money and how to spend it.

After some foolish chuckling, Lin Xi shook her head and brought herself back to reality.

-- If what was at stake was high, a million-yuan prize money was not inconceivable. A good technology project could very well bring in profit that would well exceed a million yuan.

As such, a prize amount this high was not incomprehensible.

But it also meant that the difficulty of this competition well exceeded that of the others.

This Tianchuang Competition did not gear toward students. It was geared, instead, toward professionals with experiences or research teams in universities. It was very different from innovative technology competitions that were geared toward ordinary teenagers. The one that were geared toward teenagers only required the competitors to provide an innovative idea or modeling at a theoretical level. This one, however, required the final product and results to be delivered.

This was not something a poor junior high school student with nothing other than her brain could pull off.

Looking at the prize award one more time regretfully, Lin Xi sighed, left the homepage of the competition, and went back to browse the competitions that were geared toward high school students.

After spending some time in browsing around, Lin Xi locked onto two specific competitions: An innovative technology competition with traffic as the subject and an ordinary high school innovative technology competition.

Lin Xi clicked into the application page after she made her decision.

She filled in her name and age

But she was stumped when she got to the school field.

She wouldnt be returning to her old school but there wasnt another school that she could put down.

She must fill this field out or she would not even be able to submit her application.

Lin Xi spent a lot of time troubled in front of the computer. She put down a different school name, hesitated, and deleted it again.

Finally. Lin Xi had no choice but to close out of the application page.

When she logged out of the webpage, Lin Xi couldn't help but looked at the message area on the lower right-hand corner of the webpage again. The entire area was filled with information about Tianchuang Competition.

Because of the high amount in prize money, not only was Lin Xi shocked when she saw it, it had stirred up quite a lot of waves in the field as well.

Many started talking about this competition in the forum and someone even set up a specific page just for the discussions on Tianchuang Competition.

Lin Xi couldn't help but clicked into it.

By now, there were already dozens of messages discussing about just anything.

[Cmon, yall. Let me know how many out there are joining this competition for the prize money.]

[Question: Will the winner really be granted the right for developing their project?]

[We are a design team and have a good project in mind. We are looking for a team with experiences in production and development to work with us. Drop us a line if you are interested.]

[All of my roommates are overseas. Anyone looking to start a team?]

[I have a lot of experiences in scientific research and I am looking for teammates. Serious people only.]

***

As it involved final product, it could not be done by one person. As such, there were many strings like this recruiting for team members online.

Lin Xi randomly clicked into one of them and the original poster was happily chatting away with the others.

See that they were more or less done chatting, the thread owner tossed out the ID of a group. [This is a group that I have just started. Feel free to join if you are interested, regardless of whether you want to start a team together. We can always chitchat and share information on the competition.]

The group owner was very light-hearted.

Lin Xi, her brain drawing blank for a split second, keyed in the string of numbers and sent a request to join the group.

She wasnt too concerned when she didnt see a response after she had sent the request.

Quickly, her heat of the moment incident was forgotten.
