1853 Only One Selection Every Three Years, Outsiders Once Entered
Qiao Nian had just blacklisted He Lin when she thought of the message he sent her previously. Then, she saw Ji Nan’s concerned expression.
Qiao Nian was distracted for a moment, but it was only for a moment. Then, she restrained the glimmer in her eyes, put her phone back, and replied vaguely, “I suddenly want to enter it. There’s no other reason.”
Ji Nan was not stupid. Otherwise, he would not have been able to thrive in the financial world. He was known as the younger version of the stock market’s Warren Buffett.
Although the baseball cap covered the girl’s eyes, he could still see that she was distracted when he mentioned the First Research Inst.i.tute.
Something must have happened to her!
!!
Logically speaking, the First Research Inst.i.tute was a taboo existence to the major families of the Independent Continent. They wouldn’t casually mention it to outsiders.
However, Ji Nan couldn’t explain why. He especially liked Qiao Nian and was soft-hearted. He didn’t even want to pursue the matter to the end. “It’s very difficult to enter the number one research inst.i.tute in the Independent Continent. This research inst.i.tute gathers the most cutting-edge technology and resources of the continent. The Ji family only has one slot every three years, and we also need to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment. If the person we recommend doesn’t pa.s.s the a.s.sessment, they won’t be able to enter either. The Ji Ziyin you saw at the banquet entered the research inst.i.tute three years ago. She specializes in black gunpowder. No one has been able to enter the research inst.i.tute in the past two years… I’m afraid it’ll be even harder for you to enter since you’re not from the independent Continent.”
This kind of power center that involved an entire continent would definitely not allow outsiders to enter.
That was the rule.
“You can’t enter unless you’re from the Independent Continent?” Qiao Nian didn’t know about this. This was the first time she was hearing this rule.
“In principle, yes.” Ji Nan couldn’t bear to disappoint her. He thought about it again and continued, “But there are also exceptions. I know of a person in the First Research Inst.i.tute who isn’t from the Independent Continent. He’s from the illegal district. He came to the Independent Continent in his early years and, for some reason, partic.i.p.ated in the a.s.sessment later on. He became the first place in the a.s.sessment back then and naturally entered the research inst.i.tute… I remember that it caused quite a stir at that time. It’s just that that person didn’t stay long. He only stayed in the First Research Inst.i.tute for less than a year before leaving.”
Ji Nan reminisced. It was obvious that he did not really remember this matter.
“It’s said that the First Research Inst.i.tute changed the rules for him a few times during his year there. He was a very talented person.”
“Who?” Qiao Nian had a strange feeling, but she couldn’t tell the exact reason.
Someone from the illegal district…
Ji Nan shook his head. “I don’t know. The matters of the First Research Inst.i.tute have always been confidential in the Independent Continent. I don’t pay much attention to their matters.”
He smiled upon seeing that Qiao Nian seemed to be deep in thought. “If you want to know, I’ll help you ask Ji Ziyin later. She should know.”
Ji Nan and Ji Ziyin’s relations.h.i.+p was very ordinary. If Qiao Nian wasn’t interested in this, he probably wouldn’t look for Ji Ziyin even once a year.
However, Qiao Nian shook her head and pulled down her baseball cap, seemingly uninterested. “No need. I just asked casually.”
Ji Nan glanced at her as he drove.
