Chapter 194 Come to my office
It’s very comfortable to celebrate the New Year in a big house. On the first day of the new year, Ning Chen’s grandparents and relatives came together, and they didn’t feel a little crowded. This made the family happy. The old man felt very happy.
On the second day of the new year, it was the turn of Ning Chen’s grandma and grandpa’s relatives to reunite.
In the morning, Ning Chen’s uncle, aunt, and cousin’s family came over early, and all three of them carried a lot of New Year’s goods in their hands.
“Sister, brother-in-law, have a great New Year!”
"Yan Lin, I told you that you don't need to buy anything. We have bought everything. Why are we buying so much?"
"Hey, just buy a little bit, you can't come empty-handed. Your new home is really spacious, and Chenchen is really promising. She can afford such a big house at such a young age.”
They had all gotten together at Ningchen’s grandma’s house before, but the place there was still limited. It's not as big as Ning Chen's parents' old house, so it's very inconvenient when there are too many people.
"Xiaolong is now promising. He is studying in Ice Engineering and will soon be a graduate student. Maybe it won't be long before Xiaolong is the engineer who designs aircraft carriers for the motherland."
Ning Chen also heard about Wang Junlong's postgraduate study in the major of shipbuilding and ocean engineering in Ice Engineering, and planned to have time to have a chat with Wang Junlong later.
After everyone chatted for a while, they went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
The kitchen area of this house is also very large, and the family can work in it easily. With the joint efforts of everyone, a table of meals was quickly prepared.
Perhaps because of celebrating the New Year in a big house, everyone is in a particularly good mood this year, and Wang Yanlin does not compare Wang Junlong with Ning Chen like before.
When the gap between two people is very large, there is no comparison. As long as Wang Junlong can do his best, Wang Yanlin will be very satisfied.
And as Ning Chen’s uncle, Wang Yanlin was truly happy and honored from the bottom of his heart for Ning Chen’s achievements.
At the dinner table, everyone had been praising Ning Chen's various achievements during this period. Ning Chen didn't want everyone to keep focusing on himself and tried to create other topics.
After finishing the meal, Ning Chen said to Wang Junlong:
"Xiaolong, let me take you to the study."
"Well, okay."< br>
Walking into the study, Wang Junlong was a little surprised to find that the study was even bigger than Wang Junlong's own bedroom, and he couldn't help but feel envious of Ning Chen again.
Ning Chen didn't want to show off his study to Wang Junlong, he just wanted to find a quiet environment to have a good chat with Wang Junlong.
"Xiaolong, I'm really glad that you can get a graduate degree. Have you decided on the research direction for the postgraduate stage?"
"It's not completely determined yet, but it should be in the direction of ship design. . ”
Wang Junlong is naturally unlikely to engage in the design of aircraft carriers from the beginning, as everyone at the dinner table said. After all, the threshold for aircraft carriers is too high, and it is not an easily accessible research field.
However, even if it is just ship design, it is a very good research direction. Not only will the future employment situation be very good, but the job benefits and social status will also be relatively high.
Ning Chen did not know much about this research direction, but after communicating with Wang Junlong, Ning Chen also gave Wang Junlong a lot of valuable suggestions based on his own scientific research experience.
"Xiaolong, maybe we will actually have some cooperation in the future. You should continue to work hard. In addition to studying professional courses, you should also spend more time on scientific research. After all, this is your ultimate goal. Goal."
"Yes, brother, I understand. I will try to publish more papers like you and become an excellent researcher."
Ning Chen is not like Wang Junlong. Just to put it casually, because the ship itself involves the use of various materials, if Wang Junlong can really become a ship designer in the future, the two people will really have the opportunity to cooperate.
……
After the long New Year holiday, Ning Chen drove the Passat back to Shengzhou. Ning Chen was living a very comfortable life this year. Being able to reunite with relatives, chat, play cards and relax together was also a kind of life adjustment.
Of course, Ning Chen did not completely put down his scientific research work during this period. When there were no relatives around, he would stay in the study alone, studying mathematics or materials science. question.
After returning to Shengzhou, Ning Chen didn't bother to take a rest and immediately continued his previous research.
On this day, Ning Chen received a message from Liu Xu.
"Ning Chen, have you returned to Shengzhou now? If it's convenient, you can call me back."
After seeing the content in the message, Ning Chen called Liu Xu.
"Dean Liu, I have returned to Shengzhou now."
"Haha, I know that according to your personality, you will definitely come back to do research just after the New Year. "
"Hey, Dean Liu still understands me."
After chatting with Ning Chen about daily life, Liu Xu said:
"Ning Chen, if you have time, please come to my office. I have some things I want to discuss with you."
Ning Chen knew that Liu Xu was looking for him like this because there must be something important.
"Okay, Dean Liu, when are you in the office?"
"If it's convenient, you can come over now."
"Okay, Dean Liu, I'll be there in a moment."
After changing his clothes and briefly tidying up his image, Ning Chen went out to Liu Xu's office.
Seeing Ning Chen coming over, Liu Xu smiled and said:
"Ning Chen, you really look more and more mature now. I went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for an internship before and learned a lot. A lot of stuff, right?”
“Yes, Dean Liu, I learned a lot of engineering knowledge at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and also participated in some internships in scientific research projects.”
"It's really good to frequently go to these high-level places for exchanges and studies. Although we are all from Shengzhou University, we have to look directly at the gap between us and other universities and scientific research institutions, so that we can continue to make progress."
Ning Chen knew that Liu Xu came to him specifically and would not just ask about these things.
Sure enough, after chatting with Ning Chen about some internship matters, Liu Xu continued:
"Ning Chen, I saw your previous final exam scores. The scores in each subject are Very high, and ranked first in the major. There are not many subjects left that you have not taken. I think you will finish all the remaining subjects this semester, and then arrange your doctoral defense. ”
Hearing Liu Xu’s words, Ning Chen also seemed very excited.
"Thank you, Dean Liu. I also plan to get a doctorate degree next semester."
With so many papers Ning Chen has published, it has already been enough to get countless doctorates. , Ning Chen does not want to continue to spend time on studying for a Ph.D., but hopes to enter the next stage as soon as possible.
"Ning Chen, don't worry about this. With your ability, getting a doctorate is definitely a sure thing. There is one more thing I want to ask your opinion on. What are your plans after graduating with a doctorate? "
Ning Chen thought for a moment and then replied:
"After graduating with a Ph.D., I definitely hope that I can continue to do scientific research in a university. I like the environment in the university very much. It would be nice to stay in school all your life.”
Ning Chen deliberately did not clearly state which university he wanted to stay in in the future, because Ning Chen knew that Liu Xu would definitely provide conditions for staying at Shengzhou University soon.
