I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

The main administrative building of Songshi University.

Compared to the college building, it is much more imposing, with not many students coming and going inside, and it seems much quieter overall.

Jiang Hao walked all the way up to the fourth floor and finally found Principal Li's office.

To be honest, this was the first time Jiang Hao met Dean Li Huida outside of his office.

In the office, Principal Li was holding a cigarette in his hand and working on something in front of the computer.

It was not until Jiang Hao got closer that he discovered that Principal Li was actually playing Landlord.

Is it possible that everyone's habits and hobbies will become similar after becoming a principal?

How come Principal Li is the same as the former Principal Lin, playing Landlord in the office in his spare time.

It’s just that Principal Li’s computer has turned off the sound, so it’s hard to tell from the outside.

"Principal, you play cards first, I can pour the water myself."

As soon as he saw him enter the room, Principal Li was about to get up to pour some water, but Jiang Hao quickly stopped him.

He found the teacup as if he was familiar with it and poured himself a cup of hot water.

"Do you want tea? It's under the drawer where the cups are."

Although the card game has not ended yet, Principal Li's mind is already on Jiang Hao and he is no longer interested in the game.

Two minutes later, the game on the computer finally ended.

Principal Li put out the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray and explained to himself.

"Since I stopped being the dean, the burden on me has suddenly become much lighter."

"I'm just a little too idle. The principal and several vice principals of the school are taking special care of me because of you. They didn't give me any difficult work."

"It's just about managing the annual awards and scholarships. When people have free time, they tend to play cards."

Jiang Hao couldn't help laughing at this. He didn't expect that Principal Li would be so embarrassed today.

"It's okay, Principal, you have been busy for the hospital for so many years. It's normal for you to take some time off during work."

The head of the college has a lot of work to do, and he has to directly monitor most of the things.

Now that he has been transferred to the position of vice-president, he is not even the second-in-command. In fact, it is a semi-idle position, so naturally there is not much work to do.

Jiang Hao is quite happy with Principal Li's current state. He has served the School of Information Engineering for his entire life, and it would be a good thing for him to relax in the few years before his retirement.

Otherwise, you will be even more idle when you really retire, and it will be very uncomfortable if you can't adjust your state well.

"Principal Li, what exactly is the matter that you are reluctant to talk about on the phone?"

...

"This is a bit troublesome."

"How long has it been since you checked your school's special mailbox?"

When Jiang Hao heard Dean Li mention this, he couldn't help but recall it.

It seems that I didn't know that I had the college's email address before, and I only found out about it after Yu Xintong reminded me.

Most of the messages in his mailbox at that time were from classmates who were applying for graduate school and contacted him in advance, or asked him about the situation in the college, etc.

There were also a few spoof love requests from female students. Anyway, after logging in once, the email address was managed by Yu Xintong, and he had never read it.

He immediately shook his head at Principal Li.

"I haven't been online for a long time. Was my mailbox stolen?"

Jiang Hao couldn't imagine what could have happened that would make Dean Li call him over on such a rare occasion.

I can only subconsciously guess that my email address has been stolen, causing some students to be deceived?

"Why don't you log in using my computer first? Do you know the account and password?"

...

"Let me call Xiaotong, but she was the one who replied to this email for me in the end."

Not knowing what the email was involved with, Jiang Hao finally logged into the email on Principal Li's computer after some operations.

There are 999+ emails at the top, and I can’t even scroll through the unread emails.

As for the last email I opened, it was a year and a half ago.

It seems that there are too many emails in this mailbox, and in the end even Yu Xintong was too lazy to reply.

Principal Li took the mouse and browsed through the unread emails. He set the time frame to the past week, as if he was looking for a certain email with a purpose.

Until I opened an email with an English letterhead and saw that it seemed to have been sent five days ago.

The content inside is also in pure English, and has special layout and attachments.

As for the content, it was somewhat magical, at least to Jiang Hao it seemed like fraudulent information.

"Congratulations, Dr. Jiang Hao. This is the National Academy of Engineering of the United States. You have been nominated by our group and passed the preliminary review of the qualification of 'foreign academician'. If you are interested in becoming a foreign academician of our academy, please contact us using the contact information below."

"The official vote will be held in April, so please prepare in advance."

……

"Principal Li, are you sure this is not a scam email?"

Even now, Jiang Hao didn't dare to believe this email, because the content was too magical.

"Academician", a term with such high gold content, he never dared to hope for it in his life.

Now, the U.S. National Academy of Engineering suddenly sent him an invitation, which was simply a fantasy.

He had worked so hard to get this doctorate degree back then, so is there any chance for him to become an academician now?

Principal Li glanced at him with a smile, then spoke.

"It should be true."

"I didn't respond to your email, and I even sent a letter to the school. How else would I know about this?"

...

"I... am I qualified to be an academician? What academic level did the U.S. National Academy of Engineering see in me? Could it be that they are attracted by my money?"

Seeing Dean Li confirm again, Jiang Hao was really confused. He didn't expect that the invitation from this academician was real?

"Maybe. Your papers on big data are indeed very influential internationally."

"But the invitation to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering must be due to more than just these reasons."

"You are invited as a foreign academician, but you do not have the real power of an 'academician' and do not have the right to vote."

"Only if you become a naturalized U.S. citizen can you become a formal member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering."

After listening to Dean Li's introduction, Jiang Hao felt more and more that the United States was absorbing him in disguised form.

"I also contacted some old friends and classmates in the past two days."

"They say they are members of the U.S. Academy of Engineering, but they have never excluded people from the business community, including Bill Gates."

"It is actually relatively easier to select foreign academicians."

"You are a person who has reached the pinnacle of wealth and has such influence in big data. I guess this is why the other party invited you."

"I'm thinking of letting you go to the United States."

...

"Dean, I will not go to the United States."

"I will not accept this invitation from the academician."

Whale had just been sanctioned, and Jiang Hao himself had never thought of joining the United States.

I guess Dean Li didn't want to say it on the phone before, because he was worried that he might be tempted?

Jiang Hao quickly expressed his firm stance at this moment.
