Resurrection Empire

Chapter 1537: Chapter 577: The Detail-Oriented Mind (Part 2)

This knowledge may vary in level, but it doesn’t matter. Those with superior knowledge naturally attain higher positions, while those with slightly lesser knowledge also have foundational roles.

In addition, the Red Blade Clan has a larger population base over in the Shattered Star Ring.

These former low-level pirates, though still in early enlightenment, include many exceptionally bright individuals who quickly stand out.

Moreover, the many giant enterprises directly under the Earl Mansion are gradually showcasing their power. Once they fixate on a direction, these massive entities under Earl Red Blade can start moving noisily, mobilizing vast human and material resources to concentrate breakthroughs.

With such capability to "concentrate strength to accomplish great tasks," the entire Red Blade Clan is like a Starry Sky Giant Beast, always able to effortlessly swallow up seventy to eighty percent of the benefits from the technology’s widespread distribution with sheer dynamic capability.

Only a few low-difficulty, low-profit industries that Earl Mansion is not very interested in, or areas where production can no longer expand, are open for others to snatch a piece of the pie.

However, no matter what, those suffering losses are only Nanxiang’s Earldom and a few other minor families, while the vast majority within the Nanxiang Star Cluster reaped the benefits.

After all, before, they never even had the opportunity to touch these things.

Now, Earl Red Blade has at least given them a chance for "fair competition," though they may only get the scraps, they still have a sip of the soup.

In short, Ren Zhong as a person, really deserves to be coveted by the Far Border Branch, yet unattainable; with just a few words from a brief encounter, he swept away the true "academic master" of Yang Misi, the scholastic overlord from a million years ago. Truly terrifying.

His photographic memory is one thing; many can achieve this through genetic modification or long-term specialized training, but he also possesses sharp eyes that can easily penetrate appearances and perceive truths, combined with terrifying abilities in logical reasoning and calculation, and the most terrifying of all, a massive knowledge base.

Whether it’s various industry-specific thorny issues or some theoretical calculations, even if he cannot solve them on the spot, he can still outline a direction in just a few words.

Research groups inspired by him often quickly clear away the clouds to see the moon.

It seems this new superior, although having a great appetite, might actually be quite good?

But eventually, dissatisfaction brewed among some, leading them to stealthily file reports to higher-ups, hiding it from Ren Zhong and the original mentor Liu An, addressing it directly to their immediate superior, the Far Border Branch.

This report thoroughly analyzes Ren Zhong’s seemingly generous but actually self-serving actions, articulated with genuine sentiments from the heart.

The final point boils down to this.

"Earl Red Blade is recognized as a great scholar, with his followers’ abilities well-known within the Nanxiang Star Cluster. His public technical release is clearly just for personal gain. Over time, we inventors can’t reap the profits, who would still diligently engage in academia?"

But this small report turned out to be a trap of their own making.

The reason is simple; Ren Zhong’s refusal to join the Far Border Branch had already left the Royal Academy of Sciences regretful.

No one could anticipate a silver lining appearing as he returned to the Nanxiang Star Cluster; he inadvertently fell into the net himself.

Though the Nanxiang’s sub-branch is merely a lower-ranking subordinate institution, it’s still part of the Royal Academy of Sciences’ scientific research system.

Letting Ren Zhong work happily over there is nothing but a detour to resolve the issue.

Additionally, they could discreetly assign difficult projects from the Far Border Branch to the Nanxiang’s sub-branch, forcing Ren Zhong to manage them.

The Far Border Branch was already celebrating, yet someone blind enough submitted a small report, which is intolerable.

Therefore, the dean of the Far Border Branch responded with stern language.

He clearly pointed out to the whistleblower that the Nanxiang’s sub-branch is originally the Empire’s Royal direct scientific research institution, with part of the expenditure coming from Empire taxes controlled by the Nanxiang Military and Political Center, and another part from direct funding by the Royal Academy of Sciences.

This is the Empire’s asset, and the money you use for projects is also from the Empire. The developed usable technology should be submitted to the main academy and also benefit the locality.

You little scoundrels dare to pocket the Emperor’s money!

Now, Earl Red Blade is rectifying the chaos, and instead of seizing the opportunity to rectify your faults, you’re here manipulating public opinion, framing the loyal.

This loyal person is no ordinary individual but a Sequence Chosen One; such audacity!
