"Then let's take a look later," Tanaka Yoshi didn't mind mentoring his son, "Let's leave first."
The father and son returned to the hotel room, and Tanaka Yoshi picked up the manuscript and started flipping through it.
At first, he was casually skimming it, but as he read, his expression gradually became serious.
At a certain point, he closed the manuscript and looked at the cover, "Hmm, no author?"
"I tore off the author's name," Tanaka Ichiro replied casually, "This manuscript is mine now. Do you think it can be published?"
The family's influence is great, and taking what they want comes so easily. He didn't need to worry about the reaction of small figures.
If the article was rejected by his father, then the matter would be over.
As for whether the other party knows the article is missing or if they will rewrite it, he didn't care at all.
Even though he took the article from Dai Xingyan's office.
"There shouldn't be a problem with publication," Tanaka Yoshi didn't think much about it.
"Hmm, it can be placed in 'Mechanical Exploration.' There's a forward-looking section... suitable for this article."
"Mechanical Exploration?" Tanaka Ichiro's face lit up with joy, "I haven't been published in that journal yet. Dad, can it really work?"
"If I say it can, it can," Tanaka Yoshi answered proudly, but then a slight unease dawned on him.
"But this manuscript, you took it from Dai Xingyan's room..."
However, Tanaka Ichiro was firm in his decision, straightforwardly stating, "I didn't take it. This article is written by me!"
"If Dai Xingyan wants to make a fuss, compensating with a little money is no big deal... Just a small figure, isn't ten or eight silver coins enough?"
"Well..." Tanaka Yoshi, being older, eventually responded, "The Dai family isn't easy to deal with either. It's best if it can be resolved with money."
"Is our family easy to deal with?" Tanaka Ichiro smiled indifferently, "She won't marry me, so why should I give her face?"
"If she changes her mind, I wouldn't mind compensating a little more money. Either way, I'm determined to keep this article!"
Hearing about the potential publication in 'Mechanical Exploration,' he was determined to secure this manuscript.
Seeing his father still a bit hesitant, he added, "Besides, look at that lousy title... Do you think she would care about this article?"
Tanaka Yoshi thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's true. Luckily, you're quite meticulous."
Tanaka Ichiro had a dark mindset, but his judgment on the article's title was quite accurate.
Dai Xingyan's assistant didn't think it was any good article either but didn't say anything.
Anyway, the chairman has his own ideas. She had already put the article on the table, completing her task.
Dai Xingyan also didn't expect Qu Jianlei to finish the article so quickly.
She would never rush him because the fact that he was willing to agree to it was already a lot of face.
Not to mention, this was a long-term commissioned article for Mechanical Mysteries, supported by funding from Central City. Jian Lei would also need some time to consider, right?
A month passed by without much incident.
On this day, Dai Xingyan saw a familiar name in the latest issue of 'Mechanical Exploration,' "Tanaka Ichiro's manuscript?"
She had a poor impression of Tanaka Ichiro, mainly disliking his character. His mechanical repair skills were quite alright.
But he was mainly skilled in practical ability and lacked in theory... How did his article get published in 'Mechanical Exploration'?
Looking at the title, it was indeed ridiculous—'Some Thoughts and Suggestions on Garbage Recycling,' what kind of nonsense is this?
However, Dai Xingyan wasn't the type to judge academically with preconceived notions, so she still read it thoroughly.
Then, as she read, she became more serious, and ultimately, her brow couldn't help but furrow.
"Has this guy's thought process become so broad now? Have I always underestimated him?"
