384: A clash of titans!
This was the first time Skema felt that things were developing beyond his control since he founded his rocket company and new energy vehicle company.
All along, Skema had meticulously planned every step of his future.
His companies also smoothly got on track within his orderly plans.
Originally, he had intended to use this opportunity of becoming the most influential person globally to heavily promote his Cryogenic Storage.
At the same time, this was his first new direction for transitioning into the technology sector in the future.
It could be said that this current step was the first step in his grand blueprint for the future Skema Universe!
Therefore, he brought out his capabilities and his results.
No one needed this so-called prestige more than he did at that moment.
But contrary to his wishes, Su Yu's appearance directly disrupted all his plans.
Actually, this was unavoidable.
Also vying for this position, Su Yu would do everything in his power to secure it.
This was not only for himself but also for China.
The two were destined to have an unavoidable clash.
From the very beginning, Su Yu had made up his mind that his presentation at this exchange meeting must directly compete with the most influential person globally.
Therefore, he had not finalized his presentation technology until Skema announced his Cryogenic Storage plan!
If it hadn't been for Cryogenic Storage, Su Yu might not have proposed Brain-Computer Interface.
This was like a wonderful twist of fate; at this point, it was a foregone conclusion!
...
Su Yu did not spend a lot of time introducing Brain-Computer Interface Technology.
After all, he hadn't officially started researching it yet, and he understood the principle that too many words lead to mistakes.
His true stage for demonstration had not yet arrived; perhaps it would be in a few days, or perhaps in a week.
In short, after clearly stating his concept, Su Yu decisively put down the microphone in his hand.
He had revealed enough for today; next, they would wait for things to unfold.
Su Yu's unexpected appearance interrupted Skema's introduction of Cryogenic Storage and brought unprecedented pressure to the remaining few candidates who were to present after them.
What a joke!
Besides Skema, who else at the venue was confident that their new ideas and technologies could decisively outperform Su Yu?
Forget about decisively outperforming; even those that could be mentioned in the same breath were few and far between!
Ultimately, out of helplessness, only Bezos took on this mess.
As the second-ranked individual in the fourth round of voting, Bezos successfully stabilized the current situation when discussing his professional field.
But it was only just maintained.
The hot topic of this global top-tier figures exchange meeting had, unbeknownst to anyone, shifted from the imagined fierce competition to a direct confrontation between Cryogenic Storage and Brain-Computer Interface Technology!
To be honest, although everyone was among the world's most influential people, there were still differences in their rankings.
The appearance of Su Yu and Skema had completely split the voting factions into two camps.
The things presented by subsequent entrants could only be described as insignificant in comparison to these two.
No one would care what they talked about.
Now, the only hot topic on global networks was: [What is the true direction of research for humans to achieve immortality?]
A large number of scientists and enthusiasts were expressing their thoughts online.
"I still vote for the Streamer! The true form of human immortality begins with the conversion from carbon-based life."
"But once humans lose their bodies, can they still be called human? It's like a very famous paradox: when a sailboat sailing on the sea has all its parts replaced due to damage, is that ship still the original ship?"
"Hmm, such profound questions! My brain is going to explode! Weren't we discussing whose technology, Su Yu's or Skema's, was more reliable? Why are we suddenly delving into philosophical questions?"
"Both technologies, theoretically speaking, are currently very difficult to achieve. In short, my view is that whoever can ultimately demonstrate the technology, I'll support them! I don't care whose is more scientific; what can be presented is the real thing."
"Ten days, Brother Su's task is arduous. I wonder if we'll see another miracle this time."
In fact, people didn't have a strong obsession with whom to vote for.
Just like one of the audience members said.
Su Yu and Skema are both top scientists in the world; they could vote for either. It just depends on who can ultimately complete the experiment.
On China's media platforms.
The hesitant thoughts that people originally had completely vanished when Su Yu directly challenged Skema.
Misunderstanding resolved!
How could someone who could make CEO Lei and CEO Ren willingly pave the way for him be an ordinary person?
Sure enough! The country must have received inside information early on, knowing that Su Yu would definitely pull out something new at this exchange meeting.
That's why everyone was told to concentrate their votes on him.
Otherwise, what other explanation could there be?
It was their short-sightedness!
And the high-ranking officials in China, who had just received this news, were also stunned on the spot.
"Did you know Su Yu had prepared new technology in advance?"
"No, I thought he would mainly showcase the zodiac mecha this time. Did you know?"
"I didn't know either!"
"You didn't know either?! What do the Chinese Academy of Sciences experts on brainwave research say? Can they provide Su Yu with help in this research?"
"Hiss, I need to go ask. But it's probably a long shot! This kid, he always gives us unexpected surprises."
"Enough said, I don't know if this time it's a surprise or a shock."
Everyone exchanged glances, seeing a hint of helplessness and relief in each other's expressions.
It was indeed a bit mind-boggling.
Who said they knew inside information? They had just been informed, okay?!
...
The subsequent exchange meeting ended hastily after less than another hour.
This meeting was originally a small gathering before the awards ceremony, intended to boost the event's popularity.
Who knew that the popularity didn't need to be boosted at all, okay?
A sharp confrontation once again pushed China and the USA to the center stage.
The whole world knew that human immortality was no longer just a hope.
For top politicians, magnates, and capitalists who had already entered old age, it was the pursuit of a lifetime.
Sure enough, the exchange meeting had just ended, and Su Yu had already received goodwill from more than half of the invited guests present.
These people before him had already stood at the pinnacle of humanity.
The problem of birth, aging, illness, and death had, with the passage of time, become a tightening curse above their heads.
No one could escape birth, aging, illness, and death; not even them, they were no exception!
