Chapter 368 Listening to thunder in silence!
Shanghai Concession.
On the pier of the Huangpu River, a group of people gathered at the moment.
You can tell just from their appearance and temperament that these people are definitely not ordinary people.
Their faces were full of the unique expressions of intellectuals of this era.
This group of people kept pointing at the coolies unloading the goods on the dock, as well as the people walking around.
“Hey, dear, what are these gentlemen and gentlemen gathering here for?”
“In ancient times, this was just a gathering of Jinshi scholars.”
“I heard that They are members of the Huaxia Science Society, and they are here to welcome a big shot today."
"This society is amazing. Those who can join are all real intellectuals. It is said that at least college students are eligible to apply. ”
"Ah? It's so awesome. I didn't even go to elementary school."
"."
Ren Hongjun looked towards the entrance of the Huangpu River and checked the time on his watch several times from time to time.
Zhao Yuanren next to him smiled and said: "Brother Ren, don't worry."
"There can be no problems with the route from Nagasaki to Shanghai."
Ren Hongjun's tone was anxious, but with a hint of excitement.
"The president will be here soon."
"I can't calm down."
Yang Xingfo was talking to a few people behind.
One of them was wearing round glasses, his hair was neatly combed, and he was handsome.
Zhu Kezhen, 25, has just graduated from Harvard University with a master's degree in meteorology.
Zhu Kezhen chose this major carefully.
He believed that China built its country on agriculture, so he just started studying agriculture at the University of Illinois.
After graduating from undergraduate degree, he transferred to Harvard University and devoted himself to the study of meteorology, which is closely related to agriculture.
Originally, his mentor wanted him to stay at Harvard to study for a Ph.D.
But after Zhu Kezhen learned about the establishment of the Huaxia Science Society, he decided to give up this precious opportunity and return directly to China.
He said to his mentor: "My country needs me."
While studying in the United States, Zhu Kezhen got acquainted with Yang Xingfo, Zhao Yuanren and others.
At this moment, he said with emotion:
"Xingfo, you are really amazing!"
“When the Science magazine was founded, I never expected it to develop to what it is today.”
“The establishment of the Huaxia Science Society made me see the bright future of Huaxia Science.”
Yang Xingfo smiled and said: "This is all the credit of Professor Li."
"Without his strong persistence and influence, the scientific society would not be so smooth."
As soon as Li Qiwei's name came out, The people around him suddenly became excited.
That’s Professor Li, the world’s first scientific person!
One of the greatest scientists in human history.
He is only 35 years old, but he has already become a legend.
Zhu Kezhen was also excited.
While studying abroad at Harvard University, he had heard many stories about Professor Li’s deeds.
Those Americans with their noses turned up to the sky can only honestly admire Professor Li when they talk about him.
This is a crushing attack of absolute strength!
Every time this time, Zhu Kezhen felt very proud.
Because Professor Li Qiwei and he are Chinese from the same culture and race!
Li can go, and so can Zhu.
Zhu Kezhen has regarded Li Qiwei as his only idol.
He wants to be the best in the world academically.
“Today is the first time I met Professor Li.”
“I can’t wait now.”
“What kind of charm does he have?”
Yang Xingfo seemed to be recalling and said with emotion: "Ke Zhen, only when you really meet Professor Li can you feel his greatness."
"What we see in the news and newspapers is just the tip of the iceberg. "
"His knowledge is as vast as the ocean, and his thoughts are as profound as the abyss."
"Just listening to his teachings for a few minutes in Borneo last time, I benefited a lot. ”
Zhu Kezhen became even more excited after hearing this.
He knew that Yang Xingfo was a very discerning person, and ordinary professors could not catch his eye.
However, he himself is not like this.
At this time, Zhou Ren continued to say:
"Xingfo, you are so mean, you didn't even tell me when you went to visit Professor Li."
He is 23 years old this year. Zhou Ren and Yang Xingfo are classmates at Cornell University and have a good relationship.
He graduated with a master's degree this year, majoring in mechanical metallurgy.
He has just returned to China and has not yet found a satisfactory job. He is currently working as an engineer at "Declaration".
It is to check the science and technology content in newspapers.
Yang Xingfo gave him a gentle push and scolded him with a smile: "Fuck you."
"When I asked you to join Science magazine, you refused to agree and even laughed at me. Me.”
"Say: If you can do it, I will jump off this building."
"Now."
Zhou Ren smiled and said: "Oh, it smells so good!"
People around laughed.
Suddenly, Zhou Ren said to a little man who looked very silent:
"Old Hu, stop pretending to be serious. Professor Li will be here soon. Aren't you excited at all?"
The 24-year-old Hu Mingfu is already a Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard University.
He is also a recognized master in the study abroad circle.
After all, mathematics is a step above other subjects.
In terms of pure learning intensity, no one can match mathematics.
After Hu Mingfu returned to China after graduation, he even declined the invitation from Capital University.
He is determined to build Shanghai Datong University, which is chaired by his brother, into a high-level institution.
He now teaches in the Department of Mathematics at Datong University.
Hu Mingfu takes classes very seriously and is good at explaining complex and profound concepts in easy-to-understand terms.
He is taciturn and often seems to be in a daze when he is alone, but he is actually thinking about problems.
After hearing Zhou Ren's complaints, Hu Mingfu came to his senses and said calmly:
"What's the use of being excited."
"What if Professor Li tests us on the spot and can't answer the question? , let’s see if you are still excited.”
Everyone was startled when they heard this.
Xindao Nima, you are too thoughtful.
Hu Mingfu continued to remain silent, looking enigmatic.
The boss of the mathematics department is awesome.
While everyone was bragging and talking, suddenly, a whimpering whistle sounded.
Ren Hongjun, who was at the front, shouted excitedly: "The boat is coming, the boat is coming."
"That's the boat the president is riding on!"
After everyone heard this, they quickly came forward.
Professor Li finally came to Shanghai!
As the ship docked, Li Qiwei and the other three slowly stepped off the ship.
As soon as he stepped onto the pier, he saw everyone led by Ren Hongjun.
“Oh, what a big battle.”
Ren Hongjun took two steps in three steps, trotted forward, and said excitedly:
"President, you are finally here!"
"Your speech in Sakura Country was really wonderful. "
"Oh?" Li Qiwei was surprised.
“I didn’t expect it to spread so quickly.”
Ren Hongjun said with a smile: "Is this because Sakura Country wants to take advantage of you?"
"They probably want the whole world to know that you visited them, Professor Li."
Li Qiwei Hearing this, I thought it was funny.
It seems that Ren Hongjun and others still don't know about Huo Xiuting's instant kill of the Sakura Kingdom warrior.
It may have been deliberately concealed by Sakura Country.
At this time, Ren Hongjun continued:
"President, the people who came to greet us today are all members of our Science Club." "Now the number of members of the Science Club has reached 50."
< br>
“Everyone is here today.”
Li Qiwei was very happy to see so many energetic young Chinese people.
He smiled and said: "You are too polite, there is no need to mobilize people like this."
Zhao Yuanren then said: "President, this is all done voluntarily by the members."
"They admire the club. Boss, I will follow you no matter what.”
Li Qiwei was very satisfied with Ren Hongjun’s results.
“In just a short period of time, the Science Society has been able to develop to this scale.”
"Hongjun, Yuanren, you are very good!"
The two were overjoyed when they heard this, as sweet as honey.
Li Qiwei asked again: "Where is Xingfo?"
Suddenly, Yang Xingfo said loudly: "President, I am here."
He took Zhu Kezhen and Zhou Ren and Hu Mingfu stepped forward.
"President, these three people are all my classmates when I studied in the United States."
"They have been nagging in my ears all day long to see you, and today I am really looking forward to seeing you."
>
After that, he began to briefly introduce the situation of the three people to Li Qiwei.
While listening, Li Qiwei chuckled and looked towards them.
His profound gaze swept over the three of them, and he already knew the three of them very well.
They are all the future scientific pillars of China.
Zhu Kezhen was also looking at Li Qiwei.
At this moment, his heart felt like a huge wave had set off.
What a pair of eyes that are, they seem to contain the stars in the universe.
Galaxies rotate and time and space change!
There are countless truths evolving!
Zhu Kezhen felt that everything about him was invisible under those eyes.
It is rumored that Professor Li Qiwei likes patriotic and progressive young people the most.
Anyone he likes will spare no effort to help.
Nowadays, Huangpu University of Technology has many poor students with scholarships.
They have dreams, perseverance, and are dedicated to serving the country.
Zhu Kezhen even felt that if he were a hypocritical person, he might collapse unconsciously under the gaze of this gaze.
At this time, Li Qiwei had already extended his hand.
Zhu Kezhen also quickly stretched out his hands.
"Professor Li, I am so happy to see you."
Li Qiwei smiled and said: "I just heard Xingfo introduce it, Kezhen, you major in agricultural meteorology."
Zhu Kezhen said: "Yes, Professor Li."
Li Qiwei suddenly asked :
“China is a big agricultural country, and the United States is also a big agricultural country.”
“But in terms of absolute output, the grain output of the United States is dozens of times that of China.”
"Do you think this difference has something to do with the weather in the two countries?"
Wow!
No one expected that Hu Mingfu, the king of mathematics, actually came true to his prophecy.
Professor Li really tested them in public.
Everyone was amazed inwardly.
"Holy shit, Lao Hu's mouth is as if it has been opened."
"Fortunately, fortunately, the three of them are on top now."
"We should be fine."
At this moment, Zhou Ren was panicking.
Among everyone, his grades are the worst, which is inseparable from his out-of-the-box personality.
"It's over, it's over. If I can't answer this, I'll just jump into the Huangpu River."
He has decided to study hard in his next life.
Zhu Kezhen was also surprised when he heard this.
The joke they just made turned out to be true.
However, he quickly calmed down.
I am a top student. What should I be afraid of?
So, after thinking for a while, he began to analyze calmly:
"The United States."
Zhu Kezhen is indeed a genius who was retained by his mentor to study for a Ph.D.
His knowledge structure is very solid, and he is not the kind of nerd who studies hard.
He deduced the characteristics of American weather from the geographical environment of the United States.
Then we compared it vertically and horizontally with China.
At the same time, he also subdivided the types of grains and explained the different situations of different crops.
Various data and theories were readily available, and people around him were stunned for a moment.
Zhou Ren wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Nima, it turns out that all of you are working hard secretly, and I am the only one who is bragging stupidly."
Soon, Zhu Kezhen finished his answer.
Li Qiwei listened very carefully.
He mainly wanted to see what level the elites of this era were.
Sure enough, the history books did not exaggerate.
These guys are real bosses.
From Zhu Kezhen's answer, he felt that the other party had worked hard.
And it can be combined with the actual situation in China, which is very rare.
So, he smiled and said:
"Yes, it seems that you are working very hard, Kezhen."
When Zhu Kezhen heard this, a smile instantly broke out on his face.
This sentence is more important than all the honors he received during his student days.
If one day he applies for a university professor position, just bring this sentence with him today.
At this time, Li Qiwei did not continue to ask questions, but looked at everyone.
Every face, either young or mature, is filled with determination and dreams.
He said loudly:
“Just now, why did I ask Zhu Kezhen this question?”
“Because agriculture is the foundation of China, and food is the lifeblood of the people.”
“I personally care about agricultural issues very much.”
“People can only engage in various activities if they have a full stomach.”
“No matter how great a scientist is, he still needs three meals a day.”
“You all know that I study theoretical physics.”
“But I have also been committed to putting theory into practice and putting it into practice. Theories become usable technologies.”
“The purpose of the Huaxia Science Society is not just to promote various high-level scientific theories.”
“It is also to connect science with saving the country. Together.”
"What kind of help can science and technology bring to China?"
"Take Zhu Kezhen as an example. He studied agriculture, so he wanted to spread the science related to improving food production."
"Now artificial ammonia can achieve industrial mass production."
"After the war in Europe is over, I can ask Professor Haber to visit China to explain artificial ammonia technology."
"Ke Zhen, you can contact domestic agricultural experts at that time and strive to transform the technology into practice as soon as possible."
Everyone was shocked.
They felt a majestic power awakening.
Zhu Kezhen nodded solemnly.
He was extremely excited.
The task given by Professor Li was so important that he felt heavy pressure and endless pride.
The food for the 40 million Chinese compatriots is closely related to one's own profession.
At this moment, the role of science in the country was crystallized in front of him.
This is the best patriotic education and scientific education.
Li Qiwei did not give a passionate speech, and he could not remember the content of "I Have a Dream".
He will only use his scientific knowledge to influence more people and change the country bit by bit.
Hear the thunder in the silence!
