Chapter 45: Getting the Top Scholar Title Won't Be a Problem

After the symposium concluded.

As the liaison for Su Xin, Hao Zude couldn't wait to give Su Xin a call:

"Hello, Student Su!"

"Hello."

"Regarding the program you developed, after our multiple tests, we found the data is indeed excellent. Thank you very much!"

"It's nothing. Since I promised, I should complete it properly. Is there anything else?"

"There is indeed something else. Are you free these next two days? I will come to find you to discuss further cooperation in person. Rest assured, this time we will offer even better terms to achieve a win-win for both sides."

"I'm afraid I don't have time these few days, because I have the college entrance exam the day after tomorrow. After the exam, I must go to Tianjing immediately to handle company matters."

"The college entrance exam?"

Hao Zude was stunned for a moment.

He had been incredibly busy these past few days, his brain nearly numb from being shocked by Su Xin's research results, and he had almost forgotten that Su Xin was still a high school senior about to take the college entrance exam.

Thinking that so many of their top-tier national technicians had years of development results that couldn't compare to a single high school senior, a surge of extremely complex emotions welled up in Hao Zude's heart; he didn't know whether to be happy that such a god-level genius had appeared in the country, or disappointed that so many colleagues couldn't compare to one person.

"Alright, then Student Su, please focus on taking the college entrance exam. Once you finish the exam and go to Tianjing, I will go to Tianjing to find you and discuss subsequent cooperation."

Having finally composed himself and agreed with Su Xin on the follow-up cooperation matters, Hao Zude hung up the phone.

June 7th.

The weather was clear, with not a cloud in the sky.

Su Xin got up early in the morning, finished breakfast, and checked his admission ticket and stationery again to ensure there were no problems before heading out.

His parents had originally wanted to send him to the exam site like other parents, but considering Su Xin's high profile right now, if someone happened to photograph them, it might lead to unnecessary trouble. In the end, they had to agree to let Su Xin go to the exam site alone.

Driven to the outside of the exam site by Di Yuan, Su Xin kept a low profile and walked into the exam site with his head down.

Because there were too many people outside the exam site, and Su Xin was dressed in a low-key manner, he did not attract anyone's attention throughout the process.

He found his seat and sat down quietly to wait for the exam to begin.

At this moment, he was just an obscure, ordinary high school senior, no different from anyone else around him.

When the bell rang and the test papers were handed out, Su Xin picked up his pen and began to write furiously, his movements flowing like clouds and water, impossibly fast.

The invigilator on the podium also noticed Su Xin's unusually fast movements and subconsciously took a few extra looks, but saw no signs of cheating. Thinking Su Xin was just scribbling randomly to fill out the answer sheet, the teacher paid him no more mind.

After one exam ended, Su Xin blended into the crowd and left the exam site to eat in a low-key manner, without attracting anyone's attention.

One day, two days, the exams proceeded smoothly.

By the afternoon of the second day.

After the final subject of the college entrance exam was finished, Su Xin walked out of the exam site in a swaggering manner.

At this time, when the college entrance exam ended, quite a few mainstream media outlets and self-media were staking out the exam site, hoping to get first-hand news.

The moment Su Xin swaggered out of the exam site, he immediately caught the attention of multiple media outlets.

For such a big internet celebrity, major entrepreneur, and super genius, every media outlet showed great interest. They swarmed him immediately, and several microphones were thrust in front of Su Xin as everyone scrambled to interview him.

"Hello, Student Su Xin, what do you think of the difficulty of this year's college entrance exam? Are you confident about getting into Tianjing University?"

"President Su, can you talk about the big update for the Tiantian Assistant you previously revealed?"

"President Su, what score do you think you can get?"

Seeing everyone asking questions all at once, Su Xin raised his hand to press down, and after everyone barely quieted down, he smiled and said:

"Today, my identity is that of an ordinary high school senior, so I will only talk about the college entrance exam."

"Regarding the difficulty of the exam, there's nothing much to say; like the pony crossing the river, everyone has their own feelings. However, I can predict my score for the exam: I can probably score above 745. Getting the provincial top scholar title won't be a problem. If my essay can resonate with the graders, then getting a perfect score is also very possible."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused a clear commotion in the surrounding crowd.

If it were an ordinary person, everyone might have directly started accusing Su Xin of being arrogant and ignorant, but those familiar with Su Xin's past were well aware of his performance at the Qianlong Cup competition. At the time, many people had also criticized Su Xin's arrogance, only for everyone to be slapped in the face in the end.

What Su Xin said was indeed very arrogant.

But he could actually do it.

Now Su Xin said he could score above 745 again. Although this score was very exaggerated and belonged to the very top tier among all candidates in history, what if he could actually do it?

No one wanted to be slapped in the face by Su Xin again.

Since that was the case, they would refrain from judging for now and wait until the exam results came out to decide whether to praise him wildly or criticize him while he was down.

After answering a few more questions from the media, Su Xin took his leave.

And what he said quickly appeared on major content platforms, sparking a massive discussion.

"Netizens who claimed to be Su Xin's schoolmates previously said that Su Xin had received perfect scores in several previous tests. Now it seems these reports might be true."

"True? How could it be true? Su Xin's talent in software programming is already exaggerated enough; how could he have such strong learning talent in other subjects?"

"No matter how smart a person is, they can't be an all-rounder. Even famous historical figures like Newton and Einstein had their own shortcomings."

"Besides, even if he really had top-tier talent in every subject, human energy is limited. No matter how strong the talent, one must study constantly to master enough knowledge."

"Look at what Su Xin has been doing these past few months? Studying programming, developing the Tiantian Assistant, participating in the Qianlong Cup competition, starting a company. I heard he spent over a month in Tianjing handling company matters. That means he hasn't studied for at least two or three months, having completely left his schoolwork behind."

"Tell me, no matter how strong his talent is or how good his grades were, how could he possibly score over 745?"

Su Xin did not care about the heated discussion on the internet. Whether they praised or criticized him, once the results came out, everyone would naturally understand that he was telling the truth.

Returning home, his parents couldn't wait to surround him and ask how the exam went.

Although they knew their son's future no longer required them to worry, they had worked so hard for the college entrance exam that they naturally hoped for a good result.

"Don't worry, getting the top scholar title won't be a problem."

Su Xin smiled confidently, then changed the subject: "By the way, I'm going to Tianjing early tomorrow morning. The Tiantian Assistant is about to undergo a major update, and I need to go to the company to take a look."

"Be careful when you're out there alone."

"If you encounter any issues, remember to contact us at any time. Although your mom and I don't have much ability, we might be able to offer you some ideas."

The two parents gave instructions one after another.
