Chapter 52 IQ Tax
Bai Xi looked at Gu Lin'an in disbelief, unable to imagine that he was such a rich father.
Gu Linan looked back at him firmly.
"..."
With his mind empty, Bai Xi thought of a symposium held in the tea room of the laboratory one afternoon.
Colleagues formed a circle, holding a cup of coffee-flavored nutrient solution, and enthusiastically shared industry gossip.
"I heard that so-and-so from the project team next door tried to get the certificate from the boss of Comet Lab in order to write code without bugs."
"There is also a certain person from a certain company, because he really couldn't attract investment, he sold himself for glory, and fell into the arms of the funder's father."
"And so-and-so."
"So and so."
"...and so-and-so."
"In order not to be sacrificed to the heavens, everyone is working hard!"
After sighing, the colleagues touched their heads and smiled wryly——
"I also want to start a romantic money-sex transaction with the patron's father, but it's a pity..."
"Already bald."
"That's too late."
"late."
They patted Bai Xi's shoulder affectionately——
"Xiaoxi, the seniors tell you..."
"Be sure to take good care of your hair."
"I'll recommend some anti-hair loss shampoos for you later!"
"The hopes of our entire laboratory will rest on your shoulders from now on!"
"..."
At that time, Bai Xi had just graduated from Zhongzhou University of Science and Technology with a Ph.D., and entered Shuguang, a top-ranked computer laboratory in the industry.
He felt the enthusiasm of his colleagues and felt the heavy burden on his shoulders.
just now……
Still heavy.
Is it finally my turn?Bai Xi stroked her thick hair.
He tensed his back nervously, giving himself a psychological hint——
Relax.
It's ok.
This is the gold master's father.
First listen to what he is going to do?
If Gu Lin'an really knows how to read people's faces, then he is not a well-known person in Central Continent and has a lot of money.
Not noticing the change in Bai Xi's mood at all, he held the virtual helmet in his arms with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to pat Bai Xi's knee.
"Don't worry, although I have no experience, my hands-on ability is the strongest!"
As he said that, the hand on his knee moved up, Gu Linan lowered his head, and moved his face closer to Bai Xi, so close that he could see each other's eyelashes clearly.
He humbly asked for advice: "Well, you..."
Can you teach me how to use this?
Before he finished speaking, Bai Xi leaned back in surprise, subconsciously raised his arms, and then——
"what!"
"Boom."
In the living room next door, Gu Zheng, who was checking the business status of Lujinjiang in the past five years, heard the screams of his great-nephew and grandson.
Something heavy rolled off the bed and hit the ground so hard that the floor of the living room trembled.
"..."
Gu Zheng frowned slightly, thinking: young people are too unreliable to do things.
The parents still haven't left not far away, and they made such a big commotion, it's really...
Fortunately, it's me sitting here!
Considering himself a very enlightened grandfather, Gu Zheng put down the tablet in his hand, walked forward, and pushed the door——
"Click."
Just getting up from the ground, Gu Linan, who turned around and was about to rush out, found that the door of the guest room, which was still a crack, had been locked at some point.
He took three steps back in despair, covering his nose: "...you, you, what do you want to do?!!!"
"..."
Bai Xi felt that maybe, possibly, it seemed... that he misunderstood the financial supporter's father?
He looked at the nose of the gold master's father, where he had a bruise, and the nosebleed dripped through his fingers and onto his collar.
Looking at the eyes of Jin Zhu's father again, the eye sockets are red, and a layer of water mist has gathered in the red eye circles because of the sore nose, revealing the washed, warm, wet, pitiful black eyes full of accusations.
Then look at the crumpled shirt of Jin Zhu's father because he rolled around on the ground, the corners of the clothes turned up, one long trouser leg and one short trouser leg, and a small belly exposed.
Bai Xi: "..."
The gold master's father looks disheveled.
And the person who made him disheveled... was himself.
Before he could figure out what this was, Gu Linan made a final decision.
"It's too much!" He said with righteous indignation: "Don't you just want to try it before investing? You actually use force on me?!"
"I won't vote! The attitude of your Shuguang Lab is too bad!"
Bai Xi: "..."
Sure enough, I misunderstood, he thought.
He didn't succeed in hugging the thigh, and even beat the sponsor's father from the bed to the bottom of the bed. This investment seems to be yellow.
But thinking about the eldest wife in the laboratory, the younger wife lying in the shopping cart, and the colleagues waiting for food, Bai Xi still wants to make one last effort.
He got out of bed under Gu Linan's vigilant gaze, picked up the heavy host with one hand, and walked in front of Gu Linan.
"I..." he said.
Thinking about it wrong, she lifted the case up, and Bai Xi said again: "You..."
He was trying to say, don't you want to play games?I help you debug the system.
Unexpectedly, as he continued to run around, the chassis suffered many bumps in the suitcase, and was violently held in his hand. As soon as the bottom screw was loosened, with a "click", a baffle fell off and hit Gu. Lin'an's feet.
Bai Xi: "..."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
Bai Xi: "..."
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Gu Lin'an said in grief and indignation: "You still hit me? You still hit me with the case?! Are you a beast?!!!"
"I'm not me without you listen to me!"
Bai Xi felt that the misunderstanding was getting bigger and bigger like a snowball. In order to prevent the gold master's father from thinking that he was going to beat him up again, he placed the case on the ground behind him steadily and carefully, and then turned his head...
Gu Linan had already found out the room card, swiped open the door, and walked out of the guest room without looking back.
Seeing that he was about to lose this patron father forever, Bai Xi was in a hurry, he stretched out his hand——
"and many more!"
"Tear--"
Gu Linan looked at the ripped off half of his sleeve in dismay, and shouted outside: "Grandfather! Help!"
If you don't come to save me, your beloved great-nephew will lose his innocence! ! !
……
10 minute later.
In the living room of the presidential suite.
Gu Zheng: "..."
Gu Lin'an, who had changed into a new suit: "..."
With the console in his left hand and the helmet in his right, Bai Xi with a tablet on the coffee table in front of him: "..."
Gu Zheng calmly flipped through the last page of the PPT, and criticized the two young people: "Why are you so restless? Are you so restless? Are you so restless?"
"..."
"It's all a misunderstanding and there is no one else but you who can make such a big commotion."
"..."
Knocking on the table in front of Bai Xi, Gu Zheng asked him: "Guess, guess, guessing in your head all day, do your colleagues in the laboratory know that you have such a big brain?"
"..."
Turning to Gu Lin'an again: "How many times have I told you that you need to use your brain in everything, such a big head growing on your neck is not for you to listen to the waves!"
"..."
"Alas," Gu Zheng sighed after training the two little ones, "I think back when I was with your grandma, even if he knocked me down with a bowl of soup and lay on the bed for seven days and seven nights, hemiplegia, I never doubted it. I told him that the soup was poisonous, and comforted him that it was all the fault of the mushrooms."
"Why can't you learn something?"
"..."
The two young men lowered their heads in shame, almost poking their chins to their chests.
Seeing that they sincerely repented, Gu Zheng concluded: "It's still too young."
He pointed to the base of the wall on one side: "Stand there and reflect for a while, let's talk about cooperation after I finish watching today's live broadcast."
"Yes."
Naturally, the living room of the presidential suite will not have a bad view. The corner where Gu Linan and Bai Xi are standing is facing a floor-to-ceiling window, with their faces sideways, they can overlook the entire Jinjiang City when the lights are just on.
Having just experienced an oolong, the relationship between Bai Xi and Gu Lin'an is a little awkward.
"Cough," Bai Xi asked first, wanting to save his impression in front of the patron's father, "Your grandpa has always been like this..."
"Well, yes." As soon as his eyes made contact, Gu Linan understood in seconds.
He took a peek at the grandpa who was obviously tipping again, and mouthed: "Show affection."
"..."
Bai Xi is also someone who has studied the Green Jinjiang well. He heard the continuous sound of system fireworks blooming in his ears, and counted silently in his heart——
One, two, three...
One thousand, two thousand, three thousand...
People who have to think twice about staying in a small hotel that costs 30 yuan a night obviously can't understand the joy of saving money. Bai Xi feels her heart is about to break when she hears the sound of money rushing away from her ears.
Gu Linan looked at him with heartbroken eyes, as if he had found a comrade in the same trench.
He touched Bai Xi with his shoulder and asked him, "Is it fragrant?"
Bai Xi froze for a moment, with doubts in her eyes.
Gu Linan remembered what his grandfather taught him just now, and he knew that he had to speak the whole story with this stubborn little programmer in front of him, otherwise he might be beaten, so he added: "I mean dog food."
"..."
Bai Xi understood.
He nodded heavily, then turned to answer Gu Lin'an: "Smells, really smells."
At this moment, the two of them seemed to have reached some kind of spiritual sympathy. The previous unhappiness grew wings and flew away under this kind of comrade-in-arms friendship of eating a scoop of dog food.
……
After blowing the night breeze for almost half an hour, Gu Zheng felt that the two rash young people should have calmed down enough.
It just so happened that Su Che on the screen also finished his work for the day, watching the geese line up neatly and walking into the goose house.
"Snapped."
He quickly pushed the door open and shut the big yellow dog and rose who wanted to enter the room out of the bedroom.
"Good night."
"..."
The Big Yellow Dog and Rose reluctantly stood guard in front of Xiaogan's gate. Seeing that there was no hope of entering the gate, they reluctantly returned to the yard, occupying the east and west sides.
--sleep!
It's so late, there are not many Lujinjiang viewers who are still watching the live broadcast, and the live broadcast room is full of——
"Congratulations to Aunt Huang of the East Palace and Aunt Mei of the West Palace for failing again in their attempt to gain control of the Zheng Palace."
"A concubine is a concubine, even if you tear apart the sky, you won't be able to help Zheng!"
"Little Veela's throne in the palace continues to hang in vain."
"Which lucky goose does Brother Su Che want to leave this position for? Let's wait and see!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Gu Zheng's lips.
He glanced at the closed door with satisfaction, turned off the live broadcast, and said to the two people who were punished: "Okay, come here."
"..."
Gu Lin'an and Bai Xi, who were secretly gossiping about their grandpa's grandfather, their hearts skipped a beat, they quickly exchanged the last look, and walked obediently in front of their grandpa.
"Sit." Gu Zheng pointed to the front.
He asked Bai Xi: "Why did Lu Jinjiang reject you?"
"..."
Before Bai Xi could speak, Gu Linan hung his heart in the air because of this harsh question, and he secretly glanced at Grandpa Zu.
Gu Zheng's expression was relaxed and casual, showing no emotion.
Bai Xi's hands subconsciously rubbed the holographic helmet on the table, and then he chose to tell the truth: "Because they have already bought the holographic technology from the Phoenix Institute."
"Hey, what?" Gu Lin'an was puzzled: "Isn't the Phoenix Institute your partner?"
"It used to be." Bai Xi corrected him: "After the 'Doomsday Overture' entered the trial stage, they terminated the contract with the project team."
"why?"
"Because we conducted a total of 300 animal experiments, all but one failed."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
"The person in charge of Phoenix believes that an immersive holographic solution that completely connects the brain to the computer is not feasible. He tends to separate vision, smell, hearing, and touch to simulate a holographic environment for users outside the body."
"Like a olfactory holographic simulator?" Gu Linan thought of the tragedy caused by a bowl of mushroom soup.
"Yes," Bai Xi affirmed, "It's like a olfactory holographic simulator."
Gu Lin'an thought deeply: "Why do I feel like this is a bit of a scam?"
"That's right." Without pausing at all, Bai Xi confirmed his guess again: "It's just a scam."
"..."
Not feeling that he had thrown out any big secret, Bai Xi carefully explained to Gu Lin'an: "The technology of the Phoenix Institute is very in-depth...or in other words, it is not the real holographic technology."
"The so-called holographic device is composed of VR glasses, VR gloves, stereo headphones and a set of taste simulation electrodes, all of which are technologies that existed 200 years ago, but they have been repackaged."
"Pack again?" Gu Linan was curious.
"Well, let's say..."
Before Bai Xi could figure out how to answer, Gu Zheng took his place to explain to his great-nephew——
"For example, a set of holographic taste simulator is 9999 yuan, and if you add 6888 yuan, you will get a pair of holographic glasses with the original price of 8888."
Gu Lin'an: "Oh, add it."
"The free holographic glasses are the standard version. If you want to get a more high-definition visual experience, you need to add 1999 yuan to upgrade to a high-end version."
Gu Lin'an: "Then...how about a promotion?"
Gu Zheng: "An additional 888 yuan can be customized for colors and patterns."
"It's already spent so much, plus!"
"Accumulated consumption of 18888 yuan, congratulations on upgrading to a VIP gold user, and get a 18888% discount privilege. You can use 39996 yuan to buy a pair of VR gloves with an original price of [-] yuan, and you will get a custom-made Lvjinjiang stereo headset."
"..."
"It's a discount... let's buy it." Gu Linan subconsciously said.
"You have collected a complete set of holographic equipment, do you want to add 8888 yuan to upgrade the holographic helmet?"
Gu Linan gritted his teeth: "Up!"
"Congratulations on winning the Green Jinjiang membership special offer. You only need 10000 yuan to upgrade to the VIP luxury experience cabin for free and enjoy a high-end gaming experience. All Green Jinjiang is limited to 999 sets."
Gu Linan hesitated this time.
Gu Zheng was expressionless: "The 111 sets were sold out in an instant, and now there are only 888 sets left."
As a top rich second generation, how can he lose to others in the pretentious hardware.
Gu Linan took a deep breath, and before his grandfather could speak again, he said without hesitation: "Buy, buy, buy!"
Gu Zheng was noncommittal: "Very well, you have already purchased the limited-edition VIP holographic experience cabin, but the end of the year coincides with the 188th anniversary celebration of Green Jinjiang, and they launched a special version of local gold with a pure gold shell and 188 diamonds inlaid on the bottom. The owner of the limited edition experience cabin makes an appointment..."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
He was heartbroken, and couldn't believe that his grandfather could come up with such a cruel way to deceive Krypton.
but still……
"I'll buy!"
Gu Zheng: "Very good."
He said: "The holographic equipment that originally only cost 18888 yuan, after you snapped it up, its value has increased tenfold, and it has successfully reached the pinnacle of life."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
"I don't blame you, it's called IQ tax." Gu Zheng sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
"Why?" Although Gu Linan was heartbroken, he was still puzzled. He asked his grandfather, "Isn't it just cheating Krypton? What does it have to do with IQ?"
"Hmm..." Gu Zheng decided to give him a concise and intuitive example.
He asked Bai Xi: "If it were you, would you know kryptonite?"
Bai Xi: "Of course not!"
I have no money!
Gu Zheng patted his great-nephew: "Look."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
"It's too much!" He didn't dare to rebel against his grandpa, so he used his skills against the navy to scold Lu Jinjiang: "Shameless Jinjiang, cheating krypton crazily, deceiving the audience, and taking jujube pills!"
"Grandfather, this kind of unscrupulous website, we must buy it for the sake of the people!"
Gu Linan looked back at him firmly.
"..."
With his mind empty, Bai Xi thought of a symposium held in the tea room of the laboratory one afternoon.
Colleagues formed a circle, holding a cup of coffee-flavored nutrient solution, and enthusiastically shared industry gossip.
"I heard that so-and-so from the project team next door tried to get the certificate from the boss of Comet Lab in order to write code without bugs."
"There is also a certain person from a certain company, because he really couldn't attract investment, he sold himself for glory, and fell into the arms of the funder's father."
"And so-and-so."
"So and so."
"...and so-and-so."
"In order not to be sacrificed to the heavens, everyone is working hard!"
After sighing, the colleagues touched their heads and smiled wryly——
"I also want to start a romantic money-sex transaction with the patron's father, but it's a pity..."
"Already bald."
"That's too late."
"late."
They patted Bai Xi's shoulder affectionately——
"Xiaoxi, the seniors tell you..."
"Be sure to take good care of your hair."
"I'll recommend some anti-hair loss shampoos for you later!"
"The hopes of our entire laboratory will rest on your shoulders from now on!"
"..."
At that time, Bai Xi had just graduated from Zhongzhou University of Science and Technology with a Ph.D., and entered Shuguang, a top-ranked computer laboratory in the industry.
He felt the enthusiasm of his colleagues and felt the heavy burden on his shoulders.

"Don't worry, although I have no experience, my hands-on ability is the strongest!"
As he said that, the hand on his knee moved up, Gu Linan lowered his head, and moved his face closer to Bai Xi, so close that he could see each other's eyelashes clearly.
He humbly asked for advice: "Well, you..."

Looking at the eyes of Jin Zhu's father again, the eye sockets are red, and a layer of water mist has gathered in the red eye circles because of the sore nose, revealing the washed, warm, wet, pitiful black eyes full of accusations.
Then look at the crumpled shirt of Jin Zhu's father because he rolled around on the ground, the corners of the clothes turned up, one long trouser leg and one short trouser leg, and a small belly exposed.
Bai Xi: "..."

"It used to be." Bai Xi corrected him: "After the 'Doomsday Overture' entered the trial stage, they terminated the contract with the project team."
"why?"
"Because we conducted a total of 300 animal experiments, all but one failed."
Gu Lin'an: "..."

Gu Linan took a deep breath, and before his grandfather could speak again, he said without hesitation: "Buy, buy, buy!"
Gu Zheng was noncommittal: "Very well, you have already purchased the limited-edition VIP holographic experience cabin, but the end of the year coincides with the 188th anniversary celebration of Green Jinjiang, and they launched a special version of local gold with a pure gold shell and 188 diamonds inlaid on the bottom. The owner of the limited edition experience cabin makes an appointment..."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
He was heartbroken, and couldn't believe that his grandfather could come up with such a cruel way to deceive Krypton.
but still……
"I'll buy!"
Gu Zheng: "Very good."
He said: "The holographic equipment that originally only cost 18888 yuan, after you snapped it up, its value has increased tenfold, and it has successfully reached the pinnacle of life."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
"I don't blame you, it's called IQ tax." Gu Zheng sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
"Why?" Although Gu Linan was heartbroken, he was still puzzled. He asked his grandfather, "Isn't it just cheating Krypton? What does it have to do with IQ?"
"Hmm..." Gu Zheng decided to give him a concise and intuitive example.
He asked Bai Xi: "If it were you, would you know kryptonite?"
Bai Xi: "Of course not!"
I have no money!
Gu Zheng patted his great-nephew: "Look."
Gu Lin'an: "..."
"It's too much!" He didn't dare to rebel against his grandpa, so he used his skills against the navy to scold Lu Jinjiang: "Shameless Jinjiang, cheating krypton crazily, deceiving the audience, and taking jujube pills!"
"Grandfather, this kind of unscrupulous website, we must buy it for the sake of the people!"
