Rebirth of America: The American Drama System

Three months later.

Dinner talk time.

Lisa winked at Jack, who put down the knife and fork in his hand, coughed slightly, and smiled at Owen who looked a little dazed: "Owen, are you busy with your studies recently?"

"fine."

Owen came back to his senses and looked at Jack in surprise: "What's wrong, Uncle Jack?"

"Oh, nothing."

Jack considered it and said, "I'm just afraid that you're studying too hard. I came back late at night several times and saw that the lights in your room were still on. I heard from your Aunt Lisa that you're studying hard. You're only in seventh grade, so you don't have to work so hard." Yes, pay more attention to your health.”

"Yeah, Owen."

Lisa echoed: "You are still young now. It is the time when your body is growing and you need enough sleep."

"That's right, that's right."

Elizabeth, a happy academic scumbag, muttered: "You are good at studying, but now you are working harder than before, and you have hurt me several times... Are you planning to be a scientist in the future?"

Owen heard what Elizabeth had not finished saying. Elizabeth, who was already 17 years old, like most high school girls in America, tried her best to attend various night parties. Owen was now studying hard late at night, looking at Lisa and Jack. While attracting her, it also made it more difficult for Elizabeth to sneak out at night.

Elizabeth took the opportunity to complain slightly, which was very restrained. You know, in the United States, which prides itself on feminism, girls sometimes play much crazier than boys. The hormones of young girls are not balanced, but it is very fatal. One thing!

"Yes."

Owen nodded affirmatively: "I do plan to be a scientist in the future, or to be precise, I plan to be a mathematician in the future."

"Are you serious?"

Elizabeth was stunned. She just said it casually and did not expect that Owen actually had this idea.

"Is it about Sheldon Lee Cooper?"

Bianca hit the nail on the head.

"kindness."

Owen did not deny it and said with a smile: "I didn't think so before, but since I became friends with Sheldon, I discovered that science is so interesting, and the ocean of knowledge is intoxicating."

"You're not joking, are you?"

Elizabeth's eyes widened and she exclaimed in disbelief: "I thought you couldn't stand that weird genius, but I didn't expect that you would be influenced by him and become so interested in boring science. Oh, my God, you are like this I won’t have a girlfriend in the future…”

Owen's mouth was bitter and he was speechless.

"Elizabeth!"

Lisa interrupted Elizabeth's rant, turned to look at Owen, and said warmly: "Owen, are you sure? Although being a scientist is a good ambition, but..."

Jack continued: "But scientists are not that easy to be. Although Elizabeth's words are a bit excessive, they are not unreasonable. Those children who are determined to study science need to spend a lot of time studying, and as a result, they often become very unhappy. Sociable…”

Having said this, seeing Bianca look over with displeasure, Jack suddenly thought that his precious little daughter was going to study medicine in the future. In terms of time-consuming study, doctors are no worse than scientists. Throughout their entire careers, they can be said to be true Work hard and learn.

So he quickly changed his mind and said with an apologetic smile: "Of course, these are not certain. There are also people who focus on studying, and their lives are also exciting. It all depends on personal choice."

Bianca then gave Jack a sweet smile.

"Ahem."

Jack gave a false alarm, coughed slightly, and continued: "When it comes to this scientist's ambition, the most important thing is not that he needs to spend a lot of time studying, but that he doesn't have enough intelligence. No matter how much time he invests, it won't have much effect, Owen ,do you understand?"

"I see."

Owen nodded with concern, how could he not understand...

Three months ago, he and Sheldon became friends, but as soon as they chatted, he felt the deep malice from the genius academic. Sheldon's casual talk about rocket science and nuclear fission equations sounded in Owen's ears. In it, the language was all garbled, the whole process was confusing, and the capitalization was awkward, which almost made Owen unable to stay any longer.

But the friendship of Sheldon and others is the key for Owen to gain existence points. To gain the friendship of Sheldon and others and further increase the friendship level, a scientific master is a must.

To borrow what Penny said when Bernadette got her doctorate, she pointed at everyone and teased Howard: "You are a doctor, you are a doctor...Wow, Howard, you know a lot of doctors."

Howard could only smile helplessly. Although he is a talented engineer who graduated from MIT and an astronaut who has been in space, his master's degree has been ridiculed by everyone from beginning to end, because five of the seven-member team One is a Ph.D.

If Penny were not the protagonist, Qi Luck, she would be the woman Leonard is obsessed with. She is a scumbag, and she is a completely different world from Sheldon and his gang.

For example, Stuart, who runs a comic shop, has a bachelor's degree after all, and has been hanging out with Sheldon and the others for more than ten years. He tried every means to find a sense of presence, but in the end he failed to integrate into Sheldon's small group. To the extent that he is above a friend but not a good friend, to borrow Sheldon's disgusting words: "Stewart and our aura don't match."

Why not?

Because Stewart is not a scientist, and there is no way to use his girlfriend status to blend in like Penny. The only way may be to pair up with the single Rajesh. It seems that the two of them really have a vague trial...

If Owen doesn't want to follow Stewart's old path, the only option is to do his best to become a scientist. For an ordinary person, this is definitely an impossible task, because intelligence is a kind of talent, which is basically determined at birth, so There is an American drama system in Irving, which allows you to increase your attribute points through krypton life.

After taking stock of his situation, Owen naturally spent 50 existence points to upgrade his intelligence from lv3 knowledgeable to lv4 talented.

It's not that Owen doesn't want to raise his intelligence to genius lv5 at once, but he really doesn't have that much lifespan to consume. To upgrade to lv5-, he needs to consume 50 existence points. To upgrade to lv5 again, he needs to consume 50 existence points. point.

Calculated in this way, Owen needs to spend 200 points to upgrade from lv3 to lv5+ like Sheldon at one time, and now Irving only has 88 points in total. After deducting 50 points from these 88 points, Irving only has 38 points left. If Without subsequent supplements, Irving could only live 38 years.

Under such circumstances, how could Owen not sympathize with Jack's theory of the supremacy of talent, and feel sad about it? He had a lvl 4 talent that he earned through destiny, and he had to work hard to study, so he could barely become a fake academic master.
