However, Lincoln quickly changed his train of thought.

Although he had Mavis, and this technology wasn’t of much use to him personally, if it were to be introduced to the market, the situation would be entirely different, and there would be great potential!

What’s the most robust market in Daxia?

Of course, it’s education! Education is the eternal rigid demand of every family.

Most parents may be thrifty in their daily lives, but when it comes to their children’s education, they are genuinely willing to invest.

A device that can keep children focused during learning would be a godsend for both teachers and parents!

When it goes on the market, wouldn’t it sell like crazy?!

But then, Lincoln hesitated again.

Because he thought of a problem: the distribution of educational resources isn’t fair to begin with. If he produces this gadget and puts it on the market, some people would inevitably be able to afford it, and others would not.

Even if the price were low, the material cost would still make it unaffordable for some.

It would be no big deal if only a few were sold, but selling tens of millions would have an impact that cannot be ignored.

Such a learning tool would sell tens of millions, and even hundreds of millions would be possible.

At that time, the resulting impact would definitely be nationwide!

The problem is that educational resources are already concentrated in developed areas and scarce in poor regions.

Now, adding this device would undoubtedly exacerbate the Matthew effect in education, increasing the inequality in education.

What to do?

If it were in the past, Lincoln wouldn’t have cared about educational inequality; what does such a big issue have to do with him, a small citizen? He would first take care of himself.

But now, things are different. Although he doesn’t have much money in his account and doesn’t rank among the wealthy, he is indeed financially free.

Moreover, his money will only increase in the future, barring any accidents.

So, he no longer has an urgent need to make money. Now that material things are no longer scarce, he naturally has some spiritual pursuits.

So, he thought for a while, feeling uncomfortable about selling it.

Pretending it never happened and putting it aside? That’s even more uncomfortable.

After pondering for a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Lorin again.

“Hello? Mr. Lin? Is there anything going on?” The holiday did not affect the speed Lorin answered the call, as fast as ever.

“Well, I’m dealing with a difficult problem here, and I can’t figure it out. So I want to, uh, consult a professional like you for some help.”

“What’s the matter?” Lorin’s tone was very friendly. He didn’t mind Lincoln’s slip of the tongue.

Lincoln had brought out the key technology without hesitation in the beginning, which made Lorin have a good impression of him from the start.

Later, when Lincoln asked him about unmanned factories, Lorin introduced Zhou Jingzheng’s factory.

As a result, within just two days, Lincoln bought the factory without laying off a single employee.

Not only did he quickly repay the loan, but the factory is now up and running again, bringing a turning point for the workers and their families.

His dad and Zhou Jingzheng’s dad were comrades-in-arms in the same trench during a war. Their friendship was deep-rooted.

Both men grew up together and followed their fathers’ footsteps onto the path of military service.

But after the war ended, Zhou Jingzheng’s dad took over the factory under his father’s guidance, while Lorin had the chance to enter a military academy for further study.

From then on, the two friends took different paths.

However, their brotherly bond would not be weakened by these events, which was why Lorin recommended Zhou Jingzheng’s factory when Lincoln asked about unmanned factories.

He had been keeping an eye on Zhou Jingzheng’s factory situation all this time.

Lincoln’s perfect solution to Zhou Jingzheng’s predicament greatly increased Lorin’s favorable impression.

Lincoln didn’t hold back, “Here’s the thing, I’ve developed a new technology that can help people stay focused while thinking. I think it’s quite important. But if I were to sell it, I’m worried about causing negative effects. So, I’d like to make an appointment with you to discuss how best to use this technology.”

Upon hearing Lincoln’s words, Lorin didn’t ask him what kind of bad impact he was worried about. Instead, he anxiously and urgently asked: “You didn’t post it online again, did you?”

Lincoln had a black face, “Am I that inconsiderate?”

Hearing Lincoln’s retort, Lorin was speechless. Didn’t this guy have any self-awareness at all?

After clashing with NetDragon, he directly posted a video to publicly declare war and have a head-on confrontation.

For the sake of revenge, virtual reality technology, a cutting-edge, important, and revolutionary technology, was released online without a second thought.

After releasing it, he even posted a status to insult NetDragon.

After winning the public opinion battle, he started digging NetDragon’s people, and took out an entire core group.

Do you really not know what kind of image you have in other people’s hearts?

Stable? Does it have anything to do with you?

However, his official identity was there, and he was older than Lincoln by more than two rounds. At most, he could only complain in his heart, but he had to be polite and steady: “That’s good. Should I come to see you now?”

Anyway, Lincoln was still carrying the title of “genius scientist”. The security measures were still in place.

He felt that the important new technology must not be ordinary, and it must be highly valued!

However, Lincoln refused: “No, no! Not now. Today is Sunday, right? It’s my day off, and I don’t want to disturb your rest.”

“Where are you talking about? In our line of work, there is no concept of working days or days off.”

“Ah, no matter what, I’m just making a temporary call. I can’t disrupt your schedule,” Lincoln continued to decline.

“It’s okay, your matters are more important. The things I arranged on this side are just trivial. I can push them to tomorrow, don’t worry.” Lorin felt that the longer the night, the more dreams he would have, so he still had to go and see Lincoln’s new invention as soon as possible.

“Uh…” Lincoln was a bit overwhelmed, he just wanted to make an appointment first.

After all, he didn’t think he was a big shot, and Lorin was from the Top-secret Patent Bureau. Even for ordinary people, when you want to consult others, it’s best to make a polite appointment in advance out of etiquette.

But Lorin was in a hurry to see the new invention, and Lincoln was a bit at a loss.

After all, he had only looked at the technical drawings, and he hadn’t even started making the real thing!

Lincoln had an idea: “I’m on a business trip outside gathering materials, and I can’t go back today.”

? Lorin was puzzled. “You’re on a business trip, and suddenly you start thinking about how to deal with the new invention at home?

“Ah.” Lincoln stiffly replied, “Yes.”

Lorin didn’t know what to say. Do I look like a fool? Or are you just teasing me?

With no choice, Lorin had to continue with Lincoln’s words.

What can you do if you don’t go along with this level of talent? “Alright, let’s do it tomorrow. I’ll come to see you early in the morning?

“Sure.” Lincoln sighed in relief, “But not too early, I can’t get up either. How about 9 0’clock?”

“Sure, sure, whatever you say.”

Lorin hung up the phone and called his assistant. “There’s an important thing tomorrow morning. Postpone the original plans if possible, and apologize and cancel if not.”

“But-” the assistant hesitated, “Academician Liu’s project summary report meeting is also tomorrow morning. Do you want to cancel this too?”

“Cancel it.” Lorin answered without thinking.

The groundbreaking virtual reality technology that Lincoln posted online was no big deal.

Now, something so important that even Lincoln hesitated to take it out directly, how could it be a small matter?

The academician’s project summary report meeting was indeed important, but he believed that Lincoln’s matter was even more important!

Unfortunately, he didn’t know that after Lincoln hung up the phone, he took a deep breath, “Finally fooled him.”

“Mavis, come help! We have to start working overtime.. We have to make a focus headband quickly!”
