On the other hand, the situation at Summit Ventures was getting worse and worse.

Many people believe that if Harrison Clark hadn’t been so stubborn, and if Summit Ventures had limited their business to music creation, copyright development, and artist signing and packaging, the company could have become a century-old enterprise.

But after the split, Harrison Clark began to go wild.

He made sci-fi movies, created games, and invested in high-tech companies.

His sci-fi movies had hollow plots, pale characters, and little emotional interaction between the male and female leads. Some sequels didn’t even have male or female leads, and were referred to as post-apocalyptic operas by future generations.

His box office results were dismal, but he persisted, becoming more aggressive with his investments.

His games, also pitted humans against aliens in star battles, but he didn’t follow the usual path. Instead, he let players develop human technology first, then had them wiped out in an instant. The games lacked satisfaction and inevitably flopped.

The high-tech companies he invested in were even more cutting-edge, with results only expected decades later. They had unproven theories and were merely innovative concepts – on a larger scale than even Elon Musk.

Many of these so-called cutting-edge projects were nothing but storytelling scams, which he willingly invested in.

As a result, his investments never paid off, and his money dwindled.

Finally, he squandered his billions in wealth, declared bankruptcy in 2050, and retreated to the mountains.

It wasn’t until centuries later, when certain changes occurred, that some elite humans realized the foresight he’d shown in his post-apocalyptic operas. His confusing movies were finally vindicated.

Although his movie plots were indeed terrible, and both actors and directors were tormented by Harrison Clark at the time, leaving audiences vomiting blood, the post-apocalyptic operas themselves still held artistic value.

Harrison Clark’s reputation was eventually restored, and future generations praised him. However, this didn’t change his failed entrepreneurial journey.

He struggled and failed in his overly ambitious endeavors for a lifetime, never regretting or backing down, even in his final days.

After reading these materials, Harrison Clark began to reflect and draw conclusions.

Given his personality, doing these things was not surprising or unreasonable.

He could empathize with the anxiety and struggles of his past self in this timeline, who genuinely tried to achieve success but always came up short.

Their goals and actions exceeded both their capabilities and the limits of the era, resulting in tragedy.

“Let it go. Next time I return, I will analyze what I did, anticipate the era’s development, and learn from my mistakes. I should have done better.”

After learning of his own tragedy, he tried to research technological achievements, with mixed results.

The good news was that this time, he had more relaxed access to a wealth of contemporary knowledge – enough to learn any subject or industry from beginner to doctoral level, as long as he had the will, persistence, and intellect.

The bad news was that the research results from the past thousand years had been archived in the Historical Materials Library.

The library’s access threshold was not high, and he had reached it before.

One could obtain a master’s degree in a subject or become an adjunct staff member at a research institute.

But this time, without coagulated plasma for self-demonstration, the Ancient Civilization Research Institute had not summoned him even after updating his physical test data for two days.

Harrison Clark thought that although he had refreshed his record, it wasn’t impressive enough to inspire awe.

Alternatively, he could start to study a subject and get a master’s degree.

Degrees are essential steps for ordinary people to advance and gain more access to knowledge systems without needing anyone’s approval or permission.

But obtaining a degree itself was a stumbling block.

So, which direction should he focus on?

Harrison Clark was confused.

Should he try to become a part-time staff member or start from primary school?

He soon made up his mind.

He must grasp both with determination, and start with the basics!

He opened a primary school textbook.

10 minutes later, he chose the upper-right corner’s close button.

He felt like starting with kindergarten materials.

He opened a kindergarten textbook.

After a while…

Upon seeing the long string of physics formulas composed of characters, he recognized each character but couldn’t understand their combined meaning.

He was speechless.

Were the children of this era… so precocious?

Was the gene serum of this era also a growth accelerator?

What a blow to his confidence.

Even the kindergarten textbooks were constantly challenging his scientific understanding.

If it were in the past, he might have given up on the spot.

But this time, knowing that his memory and comprehension had improved due to the coagulated plasma, he felt more confident and decided to give it a try.

He’d had enough of feeling like an intellectual imbecile every time he encountered scientific knowledge.

With one hour left before morning exercise, he devoured every available scrap of new knowledge in a desperate race against time.

An hour later, he finally finished the first section of the first chapter of the Kindergarten Science textbook for the first year of compulsory education..
