Super God-Level Top Student-Chapter 723 - 279 A Wedding Gift That Will Shock the World for a Whole Year Part 2
Qiao Ze shook his head.
"Actually, I think, Qiao Ze, you should still go up and say a few words later. I am good friends with Jian Gao as well. Some things can be said directly, and I assume he won't mind. With so many people here today, at least ninety percent are here out of respect for you. Offering a few words of blessing would be like making an appearance for everyone. Of course, if you really don't want to speak at this kind of event, you can let Su speak for you, and you just show your face, right?"
Yu Chenggong smiled and encouraged again.
Xu Dajiang smiled without saying a word—the scale of today's event was indeed grand.
With more than ten academicians present, it would be quite difficult for Qiao Ze not to go up and say a few words.
"Exactly, Qiao Ge, you should say something later," Su Mucheng also chimed in to assist.
Lu Xiuxiu didn't speak, but her eyes were filled with expectation as she looked at her son.
Now everything she had fantasized about had come true, and she even had many things she had never dared to dream of.
If her son could be more outgoing, perhaps that would be even better.
Qiao Ze glanced at Su Mucheng, pondered for a moment, and then thought that the gift he had prepared hadn't yet found the right occasion to be given...
So he nodded and said, "Okay."
"Haha, that's great. I'll go tell Jian Gao the good news and then coordinate with the emcee," Yu Chenggong said joyfully before quickly turning and leaving.
Right after Yu Chenggong left, Su Lixing also came over with his wife, led by the staff.
"Dad, Mom, over here." Su Mucheng, with sharp eyes, immediately waved them over...
"Coming, coming!"
"Hey, in-laws, here, sit here... Qiao Ze, call them over."
"Uncle, Auntie..."
"No need to be so polite, no need at all, we're all family here. Ah, Qiao Ze, you seem to have gained some weight in the past few months."
"Um..."
"Haha, this shows that the food in Xilin University of Technology is nourishing!"
"Dean Xu is right."
Soon, the table filled up with people and became even livelier.
...
The wedding ceremony officially began.
Actually, there's not much to describe in detail.
It was similar to most wedding ceremonies.
The bride and groom had no talent performances, mainly because Li Jian Gao's talents weren't really suitable for such an occasion. You can't just solve a Group Theory equation for everyone on the spot...
It wasn't until later in the proceedings that the emcee began to speak, "Today, there's a special segment. We know that Professor Li has a very special student, their relationship transcends the usual teacher-student bounds and is more like that of close friends.
As the saying goes, once a teacher, forever a father. On this special day, Professor Li's former student, Qiao Ze, along with his girlfriend, wants to present a precious blessing to his former mentor, Professor Li Jian Gao. How does everyone feel about that?"
"Good!"
This time the guests shouted with particularly loud voices.
As Yu Chenggong had said, the majority of the guests who came to the wedding were there for Qiao Ze's sake.
Especially since many people were already very curious about Qiao Ze.
For example, many engineers from the Optoelectronics Institute who were involved in the design of the Photolithography Factory.
Although they had known each other professionally for a long time, very few had actually seen Qiao Ze in person.
This opportunity was indeed rare.
Meanwhile, Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng were already standing offstage, arranged by Yu Chenggong, with Su Mucheng quietly asking Qiao Ze, "Are you going to say something later?"
"I'll say a few words."
"So, I go after you?"
"Yes."
"Alright, Professor Qiao, Su, it's time for you to go up."
...
Clearly, the emcee had also been repeatedly briefed not to joke about the two. Seeing them walk on stage, he just smiled and handed the microphone to Qiao Ze.
The audience immediately quieted down.
Even the noise of the children had diminished.
With his sensitive ears, Qiao Ze even heard suppressed voices from below the stage: "Shh, be quiet and listen to the uncle speaking above. The cute robot outside was made by this uncle, you know."
"Wow..."
Okay, Dou Dou is cute, isn't she?
After taking the microphone, Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng, guided by the emcee, stood opposite Li Jian Gao and the bride Mi Ge.
Qiao Ze also picked up the microphone.
Looking eye to eye, Qiao Ze's mind flashed back to the scene about a year ago when he first met Li Jian Gao.
"Have you self-studied Group Theory?"
"...Many geniuses are like this, misunderstood and thus obscured. All they need is a chance..."
"...Right, maybe you're really capable and can solve this tough problem, but do you think solving a problem is enough to win a prize?"
"...Your situation is still uncertain, so, later when you go inside, there's a Professor Zhang from Jiang University..."
"...I hope you can have a more colorful university life, rather than spending all your time on research and missing the most beautiful time of your life..."
...
"Alright, sorry, Li, but I think things are pretty good the way they are now..."
Qiao Ze thought to himself and then began to speak, "Uncle Li, happy wedding. Also... I've prepared a wedding gift for you."
Li Jian Gao's smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, and just as he was about to pick up the microphone to reply, Qiao Ze continued, "The gift is the naming rights in Chinese for element number 119 on the Periodic Table of Elements. I've looked into the rules, and naming requires approval.
But I've consulted with the authorities, and if this new element is really discovered, as long as it follows past practices, it should definitely be approved. For instance, you can create a new character by adding 'metal' (金) beside 'Li' (李) to commemorate today's special day.
In any case, I wish you a happy wedding, Uncle Li."
Li Jian Gao's smile on his face froze.
