It eventually stirred up.

When dozens of companies announced that very night that they would donate no less than 200 million US dollars to the planned Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation, the whole world was boiling.

When the Nobel Prize was established back then, the fund pool wasn't this substantial!

There were enthusiasts who couldn't sleep all night, adding up the publicly committed donation amounts company by company, then discovering that not counting the fifty billion RMB donated by Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng, these companies from across the ocean had already donated a total of over ten billion US dollars.

This conversion to RMB is almost breaking a hundred billion.

And it seems that there are still foreign companies continuously joining the donation list.

The initial donating companies were primarily traditional construction contractors, followed by many well-known traditional car companies joining in, demonstrating through actions their optimism towards the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award.

The effect was so obvious that discussions about the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award started worldwide, and almost nobody mentioned the Nobel Prize anymore.

Yes, the Nobel Foundation is said to also manage several billion US dollars, but those are various investments, and ordinary people don't have the patience to look up the foundation's financial statements.

The money these companies and corporations donated to the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation was all in cash, not yet transformed into stocks, securities, precious metals, and immovable properties. In this cash-is-king era, such a large sum of money managed by artificial intelligence might even stir up a storm.

What's most puzzling is that not only American companies but even European companies began to 'defect'.

From a certain perspective, the Nobel Prize could be considered the pride of Europe. Were these companies truly ready to hand over academic discourse power to others?

When these companies started "voting with their money," the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which was initially incensed, became very calm. They didn't publish any articles or statements anymore.

Of course, this probably also had to do with their then-exhausted resources.

The ones who could attend those confidential meetings, obtain recordings or even thoroughly understand the on-site meetings and draw should be the power-holding individuals within the Science Academy. So who leaked such confidential information to journalists, leading to this passive situation now?

It's a mess internally, with everyone guarding against their colleagues. Even if they had ideas, they wouldn't dare to express them freely at this time, and naturally, it is impossible to react externally. The result is just to watch the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award growing incredibly powerful.

Watching countless ordinary people online starting to be brainwashed, truly considering whether this fully public review model is really much better than the closed-door meetings.

The views of many people really do change due to the continuous brainwashing by the media.

This is also why many companies regard their sales strategies as more critical than R&D.

When countless people start understanding the review methods of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award through various channels, discovering that this open review model allows all ordinary people to participate in the evaluation of the winning scientists instead of the so-called authoritative scientists, even many local Swedes started to waver in their original thoughts.

There's a classic phrase that goes, some rights I may not use, but I cannot be without.

I might not solve the math problem, but can I not understand the names and accomplishments of mathematicians?

Of course, ordinary people's emotions are often simple. Although they feel that the review method of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award is better, they still believe that the Nobel Prize is the orthodox. They simply hope that both the Crawford Prize and the Nobel Prize should change the past review methods and align with more advanced ones.

Of course, what these ordinary people probably don't expect is that the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award is dynamically managed by artificial intelligence Dou Dou. It does not need much human intervention and can automatically convert all achievements of candidates within the review period into corresponding contribution scores.

Only the top ten finalists require experts to intervene in the review process.

If the review panel were to do this, these expert reviewers wouldn't need to do anything else every day but monitor the real-time dynamics of all recommended candidates.

This is obviously impossible to accomplish.

The most that the Science Academy can do is probably just silently remove that article from the official website.

Although in the modern economic environment, the companies donating to the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation are all traditional construction or manufacturing enterprises, and are not as well-known among ordinary people. Not like Apple, Google, Microsoft, IBM, etc., which are such high-tech enterprises.

But these enterprises have been around for decades, surviving previous fierce competitions, which already demonstrates these enterprises' capabilities and profound background. More importantly, unlike those high-tech companies, these businesses are mostly the remaining labor-intensive enterprises in the Western world.

These enterprises also employ the largest number of blue-collar workers. Each company affects the livelihoods of tens or even hundreds of thousands of local people, not to mention controlling the entire industrial chain upstream and downstream. It really isn't something just anyone can provoke.

Of course, not everyone is that happy.

For example, Ryan James, one of the top salesmen of Jacobs Group.

The group just announced one piece of good news and one of bad news.
