It only took two minutes for the five academicians of the republic to express their opinions.

"It seems everyone is confident in this young fellow, huh? Don't worry, if anyone takes a loss, it surely won't be our future hope. His security team is codenamed 'Kindle', which shows how much importance we attach to him. In that case, let's assign this task directly to the young fellow later and see if he can also bring us a surprise."
"You can indeed be sure about that. If Qiao Ze wasn't confident, he probably wouldn't have sent out this proposal in the first place."
"Good! Thanks for all your opinions, then it's decided."
At Xilin University of Technology, whether it was the comments from outside, Robert Stephen's experience, or being sought after again, Qiao Ze didn't pay much attention.
To be honest, he didn't place much importance on something like doctoral graduation.
He had planned to graduate this year anyway.
The only surprise was that it seemed a bit too quick, as his original plan was to finish his thesis by May, but he completed it in March.
The result was that at the beginning of the month, Qiao Ze's name was still on the official website's list of doctoral admissions, and by the end of the month, a notice of Dr. Qiao Ze's doctoral defense was posted on the university's official website, which greatly affected the lives of undergraduates and graduate students, which was somewhat excessive.
It made the university's BBS extremely lively, with some people complaining and others celebrating.
Especially the new students who entered in the past two years, they were living in the shadow. The new students of the School of Mathematics from the class of 2022 feared hearing about semi-open-book exams at the end of each term the most. The class of 2023 had it even worse, facing a major test right at the beginning of the school year, all because a silly kid liked to brag, directly leading to a class division test for everyone.
Now that troublemaker who put them through these horrors had graduated.
It should've been a joyous occasion, but according to the official website, after Qiao Ze graduated, he immediately joined the newly-established Mathematics Research Institute of the university as a researcher. In other words, this big shot would still often be wandering around campus.
Which is extremely unfavorable for young people who like to brag.
Moreover, if Qiao Ze stayed at the university, he might occasionally host high-end seminars, and each time this happened, the university's requirements would become even stricter. What's more terrifying is that Qiao Ze had even suggested raising graduation standards, which was truly daunting.
As for those who were overjoyed, they were mostly students with aspirations.
Especially those from the School of Mathematics.
Qiao Ze deciding to stay at the university's Mathematics Research Institute as a researcher after his graduation was a major boon.
It meant that the future development of the School of Mathematics at Xilin University of Technology was certain not to be too shabby.
By the time they graduated, their diplomas were very likely to become quite valuable.
But the changes didn't stop there.
For instance, the admissions office of the University of Technology noticed that parents who had won medals in the national math Olympiad had started contacting them proactively, inquiring about the faculty of the School of Mathematics and the various policies of the university. Moreover, such inquiries were coming from all over the country.
Even some key high schools in various regions began to actively invite admissions staff from Xilin University of Technology to give presentations.
This was almost unthinkable before.
Kids who won medals in the national math Olympiad mostly only considered Huaqing, Yanbei, and if not, at least Renmin University or Shuangdan.
By their second year of high school, they might have attended summer camps at these top-tier universities several times, but now they were starting to proactively contact Xilin University of Technology. Even though no one had yet committed to coming, this was already an extremely positive sign.
Upon receiving this news, Xu Dajiang suddenly felt that his five-year development plan for the School of Mathematics was too conservative...
