The spacious hall seemed to be designed for holding a grand banquet. Thousands of candle-shaped chandeliers were scattered in an orderly manner several meters high above the head. Below, there were more than a hundred men and women of different descriptions.

They are all slightly famous scholars in a certain field. They were invited by umbrella companies from all over the country. The invitation letter clearly stated the salary and entry requirements. They originally thought they would face an interview, but they did not expect to be interviewed. Brought here.

The hall was filled with buffet food and drinks. After a while, a waiter told them that they could enjoy whatever they wanted. The scholars, who were a little cautious at first, gradually relaxed and regarded the banquet as a welcome ceremony for the Umbrella Company.

Murphy stood at the railing on the third floor and looked at the noisy scene below. He counted the number of people, "108."

This number is really auspicious.

It’s almost time and it’s time to start.

With a wave of his magic wand, the door at the entrance of the hall slammed shut, and then, with a continuous bang, the other three entrances and exits and the windows were pulled shut by a force.

He had already rushed the security team of the insurance group to two hundred meters away from the villa to provide security.

Then, he threw a silencing spell downwards, which silenced the buzzing discussion.

Then he flashed up on the podium below and used "Loud Voice" on his throat.

"Everyone." His voice echoed in the hall like a loudspeaker.

"First of all, congratulations to everyone, you have been hired." Murphy said, "Welcome to work at the Umbrella Company. Regarding salary and precautions, they should have been stated on the invitation letter handed to you before, so I won't explain it here. I won’t go into details, I believe that at least three times the previous salary should satisfy you. But regarding the confidentiality agreement, I still need to reiterate it.”

"This is the company's most rigorous and core R\u0026D institution, so it has the highest level of confidentiality. The terms have also stated that once you join the company, you will work here in a closed manner for at least one to three years. Of course, we will re-open every year. Develop protocols to ensure that anyone who wants to leave can do so."

"But after leaving this mansion, no one is allowed to leak any research in the mansion in any way. Of course, we will also take some measures to ensure that everyone can abide by this agreement."

"Is there anyone who wants to quit now? If so, you can leave now. Everything I say next is company confidential. If you hear it, you can't quit at will."

Murphy waited for a minute, but no one wanted to leave.

"Very good, then you are officially hired." Murphy said, "Now I can introduce you to you. I am Morpheus Annon. The founder of the Umbrella Company. I am also the owner of this mansion."

"I believe you must be curious about what your research is about."

"If you have just chatted with the people around you, you will find that you all come from different fields. There are mathematicians, physicists, biologists, doctors, chemists, engineers, materials scientists, pharmaceuticals, etc. Experts, zoologists and botanists, we even invited linguists, dancers, conductors, musicians, and writers..."

"And there are very few two people who have the same subdivision of majors. For example, this Mr. Cameron Snyder is a computer expert, but his professional direction is in the direction of algorithms and artificial intelligence."

"And this, Ms. Maria Ford, is also a computer expert, but her expertise is in processor architecture and instruction sets."

"In addition, you also have several colleagues in the computer field, including Nezel Sosa in graphics and visualization, Melita Strickland, an expert in parallel computing and distributed computing, and Tori Bra, an expert in cryptography. Wait. I believe you have heard each other’s names to some extent.”

"You are all accomplished experts in your respective fields." Murphy said, "But with all due respect, your results are still some way from being truly top-notch."

There was a buzz of discussion among the crowd, but no one stood up to refute.

"I have carefully read the resumes of each of you. You are undoubtedly the most diligent and passionate scholars and experts. You do not lack talent, inspiration, or fighting spirit. You lack Sometimes, it’s just an important enough and interesting enough question.”

"Our technology has developed to an explosive stage, just like a big tree. Two hundred years ago, it was a bare trunk. You can find a huge problem branch in any direction. Every branch in this The people who have made contributions on the branch, and the problems they faced and solved, will play a foundational role in this branch, and they can go down in history as pioneers in this field."

"A hundred years ago, almost all the branches on this big tree were labeled with names. Latecomers could only choose smaller branches to advance deeper. But by fifty years ago, technology has already It has grown into an extremely lush giant tree, leaving today’s researchers with only the more difficult and subtle problems among its branches.”

"Modern science and technology relies on countless scientific researchers to accumulate and make breakthroughs step by step through the accumulation of countless small problems. In the past, one scientist or one research changed the face of the entire field, and it has become increasingly rare. It’s getting harder and harder.”

Everyone listened to his speech without any disturbance. As researchers, they were already aware of this issue when they were working in the field.

Although everyone dreams of becoming a great scientist who can change the world and enters this industry, they all know that it is difficult. Therefore, they usually regard the so-called "scientific research" as a simple job and do not work with the North Korean government. The nine-to-five social beast is not much different.

"I believe everyone has recognized the current situation, but have you ever dreamed of re-entering a blue ocean that no one has ever set foot on?"

"There are endless unknowns and countless problems there. Every step you take and every result you get is like opening up the world! You are no longer the insects crawling on the minutiae, but planting big trees one by one. of giants and gods.”

The scholars all raised their heads and looked at him. Of course they had had such a dream, but in reality such a huge unknown realm no longer existed.

Therefore, apart from the slight nostalgia caused by recalling their childhood dreams, they only looked at Murphy with doubts and vigilance.

Usually they only hear such words from civilians and liars.

But Murphy on the podium looked extremely confident.

"Today, I will open this door to the unknown territory for you."

"But before that, please watch me perform a trick."

"Leviosa!"
