"I've given away such advanced technology selflessly, and you still want me to work for you?" Wang Shu muttered softly after sending the email.
[Ding! Host has unconditionally contributed "Ultra-High Precision Machine Tool Manufacturing Technology" to the nation. Contribution +30]
[Current Contribution Value: 30]
[Current Life Value: 11]
[Congratulations to the host for unlocking the Grand Contribution Treasure Chest! The host can use contribution points for lucky draws! You have a chance to obtain Life Value!]
While Wang Shu was grumbling, the system's prompt sound rang out again.
After hearing the system's prompts, Wang Shu was confused. He had only just begun to understand things like contribution points and life value.
What was this Grand Contribution Treasure Chest?
"One draw costs ten contribution points?"
When he saw the numbers on the turntable, he almost suffocated.
Ten contribution points meant ten days of life, which was equivalent to a million yuan in monetary terms! This was clearly a scheme to rob and kill!
"System, give me one spin!" Wang Shu said directly.
He was a dying man anyway; ten days of life was nothing. If he gambled, he might live for decades more!
[Contribution Value -10]
[Grand Contribution Treasure Chest opened!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Golden Voice Throat]
"???"
Seeing the reward from the treasure chest, Wang Shu was stunned.
"Golden Voice Throat? What's the use of this thing?"
Wang Shu deeply felt that he had been fooled by the system. This Grand Contribution Treasure Chest, he felt, was more aptly named a "Rip-off Treasure Chest."
"System, give me another spin!"
Wang Shu was somewhat unwilling and, steeling himself, decided to spin again.
[Contribution Value -10]
[Grand Contribution Treasure Chest opened!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Master-level Writing Style]
"???"
"How is every reward more of a rip-off than the last?"
Wang Shu now regretted it. He was such a sucker. He knew this tricky system, yet he couldn't control himself and spun twice. Now, he had wasted twenty contribution points for nothing.

National Academy of Sciences, Network Duty Room.
Chen Mo, who was dozing off, was suddenly startled awake by the sound of an email notification. He excitedly opened his inbox and found an email from the account he had received yesterday.
Chen Mo, once again, impatiently opened the email.
"The Ultra-High Precision Machine Tool Manufacturing Technology is also given away for free. Remember to keep it well!"
This time, Chen Mo no longer thought this was mere boasting. But the content this time was in a completely different field from the lithography machine! The lithography machine belonged to the semiconductor field, while this Ultra-High Precision Machine Tool Manufacturing Technology belonged to modern precision manufacturing.
What an incredibly powerful expert this must be, to have research in two fields simultaneously! And with one move, it filled a blank area in the country's technology! After all, machine tools have always been called the "mother of industry," the machines that make machines. They are the core production foundation of the entire equipment manufacturing industry. No field of manufacturing can be separated from high-precision machine tools. From crucial components of national defense weapons, aerospace, and aircraft carriers to small watch gears and various precision instruments, all require extremely exquisite machine tool processing.
Yesterday's 1nm lithography machine, if successfully developed, would be enough to lead the world's chip industry. And today's Ultra-High Precision Machine Tool Manufacturing Technology, if also successfully implemented, would be even more terrifying.
Chen Mo didn't hesitate. He quickly forwarded the email to Qi Junguo, the President of the National Academy of Sciences. Then, he rapidly replied to Wang Shu again, attempting to contact him. However, after an hour passed, Chen Mo sat in front of the computer with a look of disappointment. His sent emails were like stones sinking into the sea; the other party hadn't even viewed them.
At this moment, Qi Junguo walked into the duty room with excitement.
"We just held an expert seminar, and your transmitted document on [Ultra-High Precision Machine Tool Manufacturing Technology] has also been verified as feasible!"
Chen Mo was not surprised by Qi Junguo's reaction. This was the same as his reaction when he received the lithography machine email yesterday. But now, he was more concerned about who this sender was.
"Old Chen, who do you think this person is? With a single move, they achieve what we've researched for decades," Qi Junguo asked, looking at the two emails on the computer.
"Do you think it's possible that the sender is an alien?" Qi Junguo joked.
"I think it's very possible. After all, research like this probably can't be completed by humans alone. Take the data within, for example; it requires extremely tedious calculations," Chen Mo said, stroking his chin with a serious expression.
"Alright, you go back and rest. Since the other party doesn't want us to disturb them, they must have their reasons. Our task is to hurry up and bring all these achievements to fruition!" Qi Junguo patted Chen Mo on the shoulder, seeing that Chen Mo was becoming a little obsessed.
"I'm not going back. From now on, I'll live in the duty room!" Chen Mo replied with determination. He wouldn't be able to sleep until he figured out who the sender was! Seeing Chen Mo's stubbornness, Qi Junguo could only shake his head helplessly and leave the duty room.

A week later...

"I've already booked your flight ticket. I'll pick you up at the airport this afternoon!" Xu Yunshang's voice came from the phone.
"When did I agree to go to your new song concert?" Wang Shu asked, picking up his phone.
"Do you want to spend your whole life moping around in that small city?"
"What does that have to do with you?"
"But you're wasting your talent like this!"
"Is food and lodging provided?"
"Of course!"
"Then pick me up this afternoon!" Wang Shu hung up the phone immediately after his last sentence. On the other end of the line, Xu Yunshang was bewildered. What kind of monster was this guy, changing his mind faster than the weather? He had seemed so indifferent to her just now, yet he changed his mind with just a mention of food and lodging?
...
After hanging up the phone, Wang Shu sat in front of his computer and organized his manuscripts. He set a timed update for tens of thousands of words of his draft. He would likely be very busy for the next few days and wouldn't have time to write. Therefore, he had spent a full week hoarding manuscripts at home. However, with the blessing of his Master-level Writing Style, when he wrote the plots from his memory now, not only was his speed much faster, but his writing was also more fluent. After setting the timed chapters, Wang Shu simply packed a few clean clothes and headed for the airport.
Meanwhile, in the editorial office of Zhongdian Novel Network, editors were reviewing new books on the website, selecting promising ones for signing. Xiao Chui, a newly hired responsible editor at Zhongdian Novel Network, noticed a novel titled "Douluo World."
