Chapter 544: Chapter 354 Organizational Program_2

After reading the battle report, Naji was even more puzzled.

Everyone had been annihilated, yet they didn’t even know who their opponent was.

Does the government army have such elite special forces units?

Could it be that the Eastern Kingdom had taken action?

However, the battlefield is ever-changing, and even the regular soldiers have been overturned before, so it could also be a fluke.

What a pity... he had wanted to bolster this armed group into being an unstable factor in the Northwest; he had almost seen the fruits of his effort mature...

Now, the years of initial investment had gone down the drain.

Luckily, they still had several alternatives, though it meant spending more money...

Naji wrote down his handling instructions, then clipped a well-prepared funding application to this intelligence report, placing it in the pile of documents to be processed later.

Hmm... he overreported the budget by 20%, which means this month’s department team-building expenses would be covered.

He leisurely drank a sip of coffee, ready to handle the next piece of intelligence.

[Country Hua’s top academic institution, Shuimu University, suddenly encounters three major mathematical problems of the century, vaguely pointing towards the ultimate Artificial Intelligence?]

"Pfft!" He sprayed out a mouthful of coffee.

"Slap!"

Naji slammed the intelligence report on the desk, looking at his deputy with a dark face.

"Listen, when did our intelligence personnel start adopting the media’s sensationalist tricks? It’s ridiculous!"

What’s with this headline?

Even though our recent emphasis has been on intelligence from Country Hua, do we really need to chase such sensationalism and popularity?

And to chase after the sci-fi hype at that!

Isn’t that a bit of a stretch?

"Who wrote this report? What, isn’t the news from Lunmin Daily enough? Now we have to dig up gossip from page three tabloids to meet this month’s performance targets?"

"Cough! Director, this report... I wrote it..." the deputy said, his face embarrassed.

Naji: "..."

Seeing his boss about to explode, the deputy hurriedly explained.

"Director, please calm down, I didn’t resort to sensational headings. This conjecture was provided jointly by several top mathematicians and computer scientists from our country’s top academic institution.

This... of course, I don’t rule out that these research personnel may have exaggerated a bit.

You know what these mathematicians are like; give them a line, and they can write a book about it, discussing it until the end of the universe..."

"Our country’s top mathematicians and computer scientists..."

Seemingly swayed by the mention of experts, Naji patiently read through the rest of the report.

Though he was a top graduate of West Point, the endless dizzying strings of characters in the report still made his head spin.

After struggling to understand what the three mathematical problems were actually asking, he skipped directly to the final conclusions of the report.

"Suspected mathematical issues in computer modeling processes... vaguely pointing towards advanced algorithms in the ultimate Artificial Intelligence field... stirring top mathematicians worldwide... still, no one has solved any of the problems..."

He deeply furrowed his brows.

He wasn’t concerned with new mathematical problems appearing in the world, as these puzzles emerged every few years.

He was somewhat interested in suggestions pointing towards the ultimate Artificial Intelligence field since it was a main competitive track among the major nations.

But what really caught his attention was this prestigious-sounding "three major world-class problems"... and once again, they had surfaced in Country Hua!

Country Hua’s premier academic institution, Shuimu University...

Did this mean that someone within Country Hua had once again surpassed us in the Artificial Intelligence race?

This could be extremely bad news!

"Are these three problems really that difficult?"

"At least several top mathematicians believe that they might not be solved within three to five years."

"But I read in the intelligence that one of the problems has been solved?"

"Yes, but the mysterious person who posted it did not make the solution public but instead disappeared.

Even the president of Shuimu University personally sent a message, offering an invitation for the individual to become a visiting professor, to no avail.

Hackers have also tried to find the person’s identity, but they found that the social media account was just a zombie account..."

"I see... it seems like they are intentionally concealing their identity..."

Naji stared at the document in his hand, his gaze finally resting on a name specially highlighted in bold...

"Open-source Emperor Meng Chang Jun"

Open-source Emperor?

What a strange name?

"’Meng Chang Jun’? Is that a person’s name?"

Naji clearly wasn’t very familiar with Country Hua culture.

"I know this one!" the deputy saw an opportunity to shine.

"Meng Chang Jun was one of the four most prestigious lords during the Warring States Period of Country Hua, his real name being Tian Wen.

This individual was particularly famous for harboring a large number of ’clients’...

Oh! The term ’clients’ back then meant something like ’devoted followers.’

Because his style name was ’Meng’ and his territory was in a place called ’Chang,’ after inheriting his father’s fief, everyone respectfully called him ’Meng Chang Jun’."

The deputy roughly explained the meaning of "Meng Chang Jun."

"Oh~" Naji nodded in understanding.

"Worthy of being the Huaguo specialist I specially selected, now that you say so, I understand.

Do you think... might this peculiar name hide their real identity?

Perhaps a major official surnamed Tian from Country Hua?"

"That... it’s just a pseudonym, so it’s quite hard to determine the person’s identity.

On the internet in Country Hua, there are not one thousand but at least eight hundred people called ’Meng Chang Jun’.

However, it’s certain that there is a team behind this individual, advancing research in Artificial Intelligence and possibly leading at a global level..."
