He stood confidently at the podium, speaking eloquently, his eyes sparkling with the light of wisdom. In that moment, he seemed to merge with the sharp, decisive figure of “Yi Jian Han” from the game.
It turned out that whether in the virtual world or in real life, he was just as… dazzling.
As the lecture concluded, enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.
The Q&A session was lively, with a variety of questions ranging from technical details to entrepreneurial experiences. Someone even mustered the courage to ask if he had a girlfriend.
He patiently and thoroughly answered all the technical questions. When it came to his entrepreneurial journey, he shared a few brief insights, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and perseverance. As for the personal question, he simply smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern,” skillfully sidestepping it.
I had also prepared a question about “the application of AI in Mechanism Design,” but seeing so many people surrounding him, I ultimately decided against asking.
“Let’s go, Wanxing. There are too many people,” Su Qi said as she pulled me away. “But today was definitely worth it; Gu Yu Senior is so cool! His talk was amazing!”
I nodded, yet felt an inexplicable sense of disappointment inside.
It turned out that in reality, the distance between him and me was… so far.
He was the center of attention, while I was just one among many listeners.
After we finally squeezed out of the classroom and reached the hallway, a voice suddenly called out from behind us.
“Lin Wanxing, please wait a moment.”
That voice…
I turned around abruptly and saw Gu Yu Senior walking toward me.
Gu Yu Senior… is calling me?
I froze in place as he made his way through the dispersing crowd directly toward me. Many curious eyes followed his movement and landed on me, filled with intrigue.
My cheeks instantly flushed as I felt like I had become the focus of everyone’s attention, leaving me somewhat flustered.
“G-Gu… senior Gu,” I greeted him softly.
Su Qi was equally stunned, her mouth agape as she looked at Gu Yu, then back at me, her eyes filled with “What’s going on?”
“I saw you earlier at the podium,” Gu Yu said as he came to a stop in front of me, smiling. His smile was gentle yet refreshing like a spring breeze, making one feel at ease. “It seems you have something you want to ask?”
“I…” I was surprised that he had noticed me among so many people. Did he really see that I wanted to ask a question?
“Yes, I have a question about AI in Mechanism Design that I’d like to consult you about,” I gathered my thoughts and articulated my prepared question.
Gu Yu listened attentively to my inquiry, pondering for a moment before providing his insights clearly and logically. He analyzed its feasibility from a technical perspective and combined it with practical needs in game design, offering several valuable ideas.
His response was professional and in-depth, showing no signs of dismissiveness just because I was an undergraduate.
“...That's about it. It's a very interesting direction. If you're interested, you can delve deeper into the relevant papers and open-source projects,” he concluded.
“Thank you, Senior! Your guidance has been truly enlightening!” I expressed my heartfelt gratitude.
“You're welcome,” he smiled. “By the way, I’ve organized the key points and data and sent them to your game email. Take a look when you have time.。”
“Ah? Okay, thank you, Senior!” I nodded eagerly.
