"Panda Communications Group's Announcement to All Users!"

"Greetings to all Weiyun users. Since its launch on [specific date], we have been grateful for your support for our product under the group, Weiyun Cloud Storage."

"Due to the optimization of the group's performance and to provide better and more high-quality services to all users, we have recently reached a cooperation agreement with Cybertron Technology Co., Ltd. We have sold the private business of Weiyun Cloud Storage to the company, and the enterprise business of Weiyun Cloud Storage will be taken over by Panda Cloud Services Company."

"Panda Weiyun will terminate new user registration and data uploads on July 1st. Additionally, from July 1st to July 3rd, we will temporarily suspend all data upload and download services for private users. This is to prevent any loss of valuable data during the process of transferring servers and user data to Cybertron Technology Co., Ltd. and Panda Cloud Services Company."

"We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."

"However, all users need not worry about data loss or any issues with using Pandaoo for login in the future."

"Furthermore, all users who have purchased annual memberships or other value-added services on Weiyun Cloud Storage will continue to enjoy the same services on Cybertron Cloud Disk after all data transfers. Alternatively, they can choose to purchase higher-quality services at discounted prices!"

"Sincerely, Panda Communications Group!"

With the release of this announcement to all users, the official response confirmed Cybertron Technology's acquisition of Panda Weiyun.

Media outlets rushed to the scene, attempting to gather more information about the acquisition. However, it seemed that their efforts would be in vain.

CEO Wang Lu had already left for Shenzhen-Hong Kong to coordinate the migration of Weiyun's servers and user data. He also needed to manage the personnel arrangements for hundreds of employees. It would likely take about a week for him to return.

Sun Cheng wasn't fond of dealing with the media. After assigning tasks to his team, he had no intention of showing up at the company for the next few days.

After all, Cybertron Technology had officially announced the acquisition on their website as well. As for the details that the media was interested in, Sun Cheng would leave them to Wang Lu to handle when he returned.

However, Sun Cheng had plenty of other tasks to keep him busy. He had finally accepted an invitation from South China University of Technology and was preparing to return to his alma mater to officially conclude his dream-like four-year college journey.

The university had already contacted him a few times over the phone, but Sun Cheng had been undecided about attending the graduation ceremony.

Being one of the top engineering universities in China, South China University of Technology had always encouraged and supported student entrepreneurship upon graduation.

They designated several old teaching buildings on campus as office spaces for student startup teams. Furthermore, they provided financial support. Even the common concern of student status wasn't an issue here. Students could choose to temporarily suspend their studies for a year, considering most startups couldn't sustain themselves for even a semester, let alone a full year.

Alternatively, students could continue their studies while pursuing entrepreneurship. Startup achievements could offset most of their academic evaluations and even professional exams, although a graduation thesis was still mandatory.

All in all, what made Sun Cheng feel appreciative of his alma mater was the timing of their graduation ceremony for student entrepreneurs. It was scheduled for mid-July, right after the semester had ended. By this time, most students, except for some preparing for postgraduate entrance exams or doctoral candidates, had already left for their summer break.

While the audience might be smaller, this timing was most suitable for the student entrepreneurs.

After all, the term "college student entrepreneurship" sounded simple and easy to understand. But only those who had experienced it knew the dangers and difficulties involved.

For a brief moment of glory, many had incurred huge debts or even sacrificed everything they had. In the end, only a small fraction managed to succeed.

Attending South China University of Technology, a top-tier engineering institution, was an honor itself. Among the students who attended and chose to pursue entrepreneurship, there were some of the brightest minds.

While the successes of entrepreneurship were wonderful, the aftermath of failure was heavy. At times like these, quietly licking one's wounds was a much more humane choice than becoming a spectacle for people to gawk at the fallen.

This year, South China University of Technology was holding its graduation ceremony for senior students pursuing entrepreneurship on July 9th. There were a few days left before that.

In addition to preparing to contact New Sea Technology, Sun Cheng had another important task to handle: retrieving the spy robot he had deployed at the Nan Du Supercomputing Center during his previous return to the Real World.
