Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: A Half-hearted Transmigration

2022, Blue Star, Tianhai City, June.

Tianhai University. Some graduates were packing their things, some were hugging and taking photos for memories, and some...

In Room 119, Student Dormitory Building 2, Lu Shaojun sat on his bed, staring blankly.

I transmigrated right after graduating?

Died from drinking too much... and my identity after transmigrating is still a graduate?

This...

Lu Shaojun couldn't accept it.

While feeling melancholic, a WeChat message popped up on his phone.

"Brat, just bow your head and admit defeat. After graduation, you can come back home and live off us."

Lu Shaojun curled his lip.

He searched through his memories. His parents in this world hadn't changed; they were exactly the same as in his previous world.

Just then...

"Ding! Super Dimension Technology System loading successful..."

"System Version: 1.0

Host: Lu Shaojun

Tech Points: 0

Task Points: 0

Unlocked Technology: None

Inventory: None

Current Task: None."

Lu Shaojun took a deep breath.

What was meant to come had finally arrived.

There was no way he was going home to mooch off his parents in this lifetime. He was even going to change the world.

Lu Shaojun got straight to the point: "System, let's put other things aside for now. Just cough up the newbie gift pack first."

System: "..."

So proficient?

"Ding! Congratulations Host for successfully opening the newbie gift pack. Received: One lottery chance, one thousand Tech Points."

Lu Shaojun furrowed his brow.

This can also be called a 'Grand' gift pack?

Lotteries depended on luck, not on his own world-stunningly handsome face.

Without dwelling on it, Lu Shaojun began to understand the system's functions.

Task Points were obtained by completing tasks and could currently only be used for the lottery.

Tech Points were more troublesome. They were settled based on the revenue generated by technology. Tech Points were used to purchase various black technologies.

Currently, for every 10,000 RMB Lu Shaojun earned through system technology, he would gain one Tech Point.

What a damn crappy conversion rate.

In the system's Technology Mall, the cheapest Class E technologies required ten thousand Tech Points.

Currently, Lu Shaojun was in a newbie protection period and could enjoy a 90% discount on everything, but only once.

What kind of newbie protection period is this?

Lu Shaojun entered the system's lottery page. Looking at the gacha machine in front of him, he curled his lip.

As expected of a version 1.0 system, the vibe is just right. (Meaning: cliché/basic)

With a tap of his finger, colorful egg-shaped capsules began to jump wildly.

Soon, a golden egg cracked open on the light screen.

Lu Shaojun's expression turned serious.

Could this be the legendary...

System: "Congratulations Host for obtaining a one billion RMB cash investment."

Alright, Lu Shaojun admitted that when he was complaining about the newbie gift pack just now, his voice might have been a bit too loud.

"System, when will this one billion arrive?"

System: "A Centurion Black Card has been issued to the system inventory. The Host can claim it."

Lu Shaojun opened his inventory, clicked claim, and a black card appeared in his hand.

System: "Ding! Newbie task issued: Release a black technology product within ten days and preliminarily establish the Super Dimension Technology Company.

Task Success Criteria: Product achieves over one million daily active users for ten consecutive days.

Task Reward: Unlock Primary Virtual Brain-Computer Interface, one lottery chance.

Task Failure: Deduct one thousand Tech Points."

Lu Shaojun raised his handsome eyebrows.

The penalty for failure wasn't too strict, but the reward for success was very tempting.

Virtual Brain-Computer Interface—just hearing the name sounded awesome.

At this moment, the dormitory door opened, and three young men entered, carrying large and small bags.

Looking at the three in front of him, Lu Shaojun flopped directly onto his bed.

He felt like he must have drunk fake alcohol.

If it weren't for the fact that he had studied in Yanjing before transmigrating, he would have suspected he hadn't transmigrated at all.

His university roommates hadn't changed; it was still these three "bastards."

This transmigration was really too half-hearted.

In the dorm, the three roommates were passionately grinding ranked matches.

During a team fight, two of them shouted in unison: "Why the hell didn't you use your ultimate?!"

The other person quickly explained— [At this point, Lu Shaojun likely saw a system prompt related to the situation:]

[Intelligent Smartphone Control Technology: Comprehensively adjusts phone performance. Currently unlocks heat dissipation and power consumption control.

Technology Price: 1000 Tech Points]

Lu Shaojun took a closer look. With the help of this technology, it could ensure that while the phone was running at maximum performance, the temperature would stay between 22 and 25 degrees Celsius, and power consumption would be reduced by 30% to 50%.

The specific temperature control and power reduction depended on the tuning of the phone's underlying system.

Lu Shaojun didn't hesitate much and decided on the first black technology to release publicly.

After taking a shower, Lu Shaojun bought the Intelligent Smartphone Control Technology.

"System, can you cut out the power consumption control part for me? Can't reveal all the good stuff at once."

System: "After the Host learns X Language, you can modify it yourself. X Language, as the system language, can be learned quickly by the Host for free. Transmit X Language immediately?"

Lu Shaojun replied: "Nonsense, hurry up!"

An hour later, after familiarizing himself with X Language, Lu Shaojun didn't waste time and started writing the program.

Having a cheat really made a difference; he finished writing the software in just two hours. After setting up the download webpage and link, Lu Shaojun began contacting reviewer bloggers.

"Brother Hao Reviews," real name Wang Hao, was an experienced phone reviewer blogger with millions of fans across various online platforms.

That evening, Wang Hao's business collaboration WeChat received a friend request.

Note: 100,000 commission to test a software.

After Wang Hao accepted, he inquired: "May I ask what software it is? What aspect should the review/promotion focus on?"

Lu Shaojun directly sent the software over, along with a Word document.

"It's all clearly written in the document."

Seeing Lu Shaojun being so straightforward, Wang Hao didn't act coy. After settling the deposit and final payment, he started working.

However, when he opened the document and gave it a preliminary browse, he was instantly dumbfounded.

Software that could control CPU operating temperature? Wasn't this a joke?

Even more outrageous was the claim that the temperature could be effectively controlled around 30 degrees Celsius.

Wang Hao installed the software, half-believing, half-doubting.

He decided that even if his fans found out he was taking dirty money (selling out), he would rely on his own skills to bluff his way through.

Couldn't be helped, the client offered way too much.

Smack!

Half an hour later, Wang Hao gave himself a big slap across the face.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could this be?"

Looking at the data from repeated tests, Wang Hao simply couldn't believe it.

He strongly suspected his testing tools were broken, but after replacing them with new equipment, the data remained unchanged.

Wang Hao began conducting deeper evaluations. The results of the tests made Wang Hao extremely excited.
