Chapter 591: 587 Master of Winning People’s Hearts: Timothy Liuzengbao
After hearing this, Professor Feynman gladly nodded.
“Well, it’s a big estate. My wife and I will go and have a look.”
Timothy sweetly said, “Master, if you and your wife like it, I’ll tell the butler when I get home. You can just call him anytime you want to visit in the future.”
Professor Feynman didn’t hesitate, “Great! My wife loves the lake view of the estate. We’ll stay there for a few days during our next vacation.”
Timothy nodded generously, “Sure, I’ll talk to the butler tonight. The house is huge, with many guest rooms. Feel free to stay, Master.”
The young boy was very good at winning people’s hearts even at a young age.
After their conversation, the master and disciple quickly entered the new teaching stage.
At the auditorium, Master Kingston, as the teacher for today’s topic, proposed a new research question they were currently working on.
For Timothy, this was quite profound.
And for at least 70 or 80 percent of the audience, they also found it difficult to understand.
Perhaps because the subject was too advanced, the atmosphere of interaction between the Master and the auditors was not as lively as yesterday’s lecture with Professor Steve.
However, as usual, Timothy asked questions today.
He also discussed with Master Kingston for more than ten minutes.
Kendrick Yacoub was amazed at Timothy’s rapid progress.
That’s because this morning when several masters were discussing on the stage, Timothy had written down several pages of questions.
He spent lunchtime asking his Master questions.
It left his fellow disciples, Walter Yonne and Alfredo Mitchell, feeling neglected, which was quite embarrassing.
In the afternoon, the topics Timothy asked and discussed with Master Kingston were obviously those that he had understood and digested from the questions he had written down on his iPad.
Perhaps because the content of the master and disciple’s discussion was so fascinating, when Timothy expressed satisfaction with the answers he had received and bowed to Master Kingston on stage, there was a round of enthusiastic applause in the auditorium.
Before the end of the lecture, in various major professional media outlets, Timmy Lewis, this young prodigy, had already become a prominent rising star in the field.
Timothy was unaware of it, or perhaps it could be said, even if he knew about it, he wouldn’t have any reaction.
He was now just like a sponge, quickly absorbing large amounts of water simply because he enjoyed it.
To him, everything else and other people were insignificant distractions at this time.
On the other hand, after the lecture on the second day, Walter Yonne raised some objections to his Master’s topic today.
Actually, he had already questioned the topic when Master Kingston first decided to use this complex question.
“Master, I told you this question was too profound. It’s hard to resonate with everyone, and the atmosphere would be dull. Today, it’s indeed the case.”
Having spent the whole day, Master Kingston was quite tired, leaning against the car seat with his eyes closed, responding to Walter Yonne who was driving.
“The purpose of this lecture is not to cater to the public taste or to create a lively atmosphere. It’s a top-notch professional lecture. If there are no challenging questions, what’s the point of discussion?”
Master Kingston was a proud man who would never choose a topic with little exploratory value to them for the sake of making the lecture appear lively and popular.
Walter Yonne was getting anxious, “But I heard that the organizers will use this lecture as a basis for some sort of ranking.”
Master Kingston slightly opened his eyes, looked thoughtfully at the back of his disciple’s head, and then closed his eyes again.
“Walter, I’ve never cared about these things, and you know that. These empty titles will only distract you from your studies, so it’s not worth it.”
Although Alfredo Mitchell took Master Kingston’s heartfelt words to heart, Walter Yonne didn’t listen at all.
All he could think of was that if his Master ranked first, he would be the top disciple of the Master, and he could get whatever he wanted at that time!
Especially when his Master finally retired, his position as the first disciple would be elevated.
However, because of his Master’s stubbornness, all of his wishful thinking might come to nothing in the end.
“Alfredo, you’ve been with your junior brother for two days. How do you find him?”
Master Kingston no longer paid attention to Walter Yonne but instead asked Alfredo Mitchell.
After spending two days with Timothy, Alfredo’s prejudice against him had almost entirely vanished.
“Master, the junior brother is very intelligent. No, perhaps the word ‘intelligent’ doesn’t do him justice. He has only been learning from you for half a year, but I think his knowledge and reserves are already more extensive and detailed than some of my students.”
Master Kingston also generously acknowledged the fact.
“Of course. Before he began learning from me, your junior sister Richelle had been tutoring him for several months. You all should have a good idea of Richelle’s level..”
