Chapter 555 A different New Year’s Eve
January 2017, 1, is our country’s New Year, New Year’s Eve, the last day of the past year!
People across the country are immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year, and every household holds a banquet for the reunion dinner.

Early in the morning, the sound of firecrackers and loud celebration songs of gongs and drums were everywhere.

After the meal, we started cleaning, posting Spring Festival couplets, preparing dumplings and noodles for lunch, and the evening meal.

After noon, there was a big bang to honor the ancestors and continue to work.

Then after three or four o'clock, the reunion dinner started early.

After dinner, there was a lively reunion, playing cards, nine dice, etc. It was a great time.

Whether it is the era before mobile Internet or the current mobile Internet era where short videos are popular, on this day, Chinese people are slow to respond to the outside world. Any other important things are not as important as this day, not as important as the joy, excitement and fun on New Year’s Eve.

Of course, the mobile Internet era where short videos are popular is still very different from the past.

In the past, men, women and children would either go out to have fun or wait in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala. Then they lamented that the Spring Festival Gala was getting worse every year, and complained about every program this year.

Now, it basically becomes either going out to have fun or watching videos on your phone.

Spring Festival Gala?

The Spring Festival Gala has become a pure atmosphere group.

"Come, let's have a drink together as a family! I wish my parents good health!"

Fortunately, there are two little guys, Dabao and Xiaobao.

Only when shaking red envelopes do people pay a little attention and then take out their phones and start shaking them.

The sound of milky milk was heard, and the two little guys, Dabao and Xiaobao, also pretended to pick up the cups, like adults, and wanted to clink glasses with everyone else.

The reason for the deserted situation is that Zhao Mo has not come back. He is still doing research in the Jinping underground laboratory in Sichuan Province, thousands of kilometers away. He will not come back to celebrate New Year's Eve and will not come back until tomorrow, the first day of the New Year.

"cheers!"

Otherwise, the sense of desertion will only become stronger.

Yang Chan laughed, holding the cup in her hand and clinking glasses with the two little guys one by one.

Zhao Mo, the head of the family, didn't come back, so the New Year's Eve was naturally not a happy one and seemed deserted.

It's New Year's Eve. All the unhappiness and problems are over. It starts anew. The happy events and harvests of the year are celebrated at the end of the year, so it's lively. What's more, Zhao Lan came back for the New Year, and she was with Bao Guohua.

However, this is the limit, and there is not much attention, because other Internet companies are also working on red envelope strategies. The eldest brother does not talk about the second brother, so it is no longer rare.

Zhao Weiguo and Hu Ying were amused, laughing from ear to ear and clinking glasses with their two good grandchildren.

On New Year's Eve this year, this home is quite lively, but still a little deserted.

"I want to cheer too!"

Beijing, Zhao Mo's home.

During dinner, the whole family toasts to drink together, those who drink drink and those who drink drink drink.

"cheers!"

"Okay, let's clink glasses with you!"

It’s just a matter of turning on the sound and creating a New Year’s atmosphere at home.

As sister-in-law Zhao Lan and brother-in-law Bao Guohua also laughed out loud at the actions of these two little guys, and raised their glasses to clink glasses with them.

Suddenly, all the desolation disappeared, leaving only warmth and excitement.

"... At this time, every household is celebrating New Year's Eve, having reunion dinner and New Year's Eve dinner... But at this time, there are still many scientific and technological workers in the country who are still fighting on the front line of research... Now, let us continue Take a look at the world's deepest underground laboratory, which is a large laboratory built more than 2,400 meters underground..."

On the TV that was turned on, CCTV's special program "New Year's Eve Dinner Together" was playing. The host and guests chatted together, and then went to some people's homes or organized group visits to have New Year's Eve dinner together.

For most people, the nature of this program is the same as the "Spring Festival Gala". They just listen to it because there is nothing to see.

It’s better to watch this stuff than to play it, check TikTok, play games, etc.

Yang Chan didn't pay attention at first, but when she heard the host suddenly mention "the deepest underground laboratory in the world", she was startled for a moment, and then quickly looked at the TV screen.

The next moment, the screen view split into two, the host's screen shrank, and another small screen appeared. A beautiful, petite female reporter wearing a safety helmet was standing in front of the seven characters talking to the host.

"...Let's connect with the reporter Bingbing who is at the scene. Bingbing, hello, how do you feel over there now? Can you introduce it to us?"

"Okay, host. Where I am now is the ground building of the world's deepest underground laboratory, which is also the entrance. You can see the seven characters behind me..."

The voice sounded, but Yang Chan didn't hear it clearly. Her attention was focused on the seven characters "Jinping Underground Laboratory", which was the research location where her husband Zhao Mo was at this time.

"Dabao, Xiaobao, look, this is where your father works now~" Yang Chan quickly called the two little guys to watch together.

When Zhao Weiguo, Hu Ying, Zhao Lan, and Bao Guohua heard the sound, they were startled for a moment, and then quickly looked at the TV screen.

"I didn't expect CCTV to report on that place today?"

Zhao Weiguo sighed.

Bao Guohua smiled and replied: "Dad, my research work is very special. Since I didn't come back today, CCTV can't report it properly."

"The reason is definitely not this~"

Yang Chan shook his head, then smiled slightly and said: "It should be that your brother's research work has made an important breakthrough."

She still knows the "style" of CCTV, especially the style of CCTV's reporting on Zhao Mo's research. If there had not been a breakthrough, CCTV would not have been allowed to report it. When it can be reported, there has either been a breakthrough or the authorities have declassified it.

What Zhao Mo is currently studying is "dark matter". He has been studying it and has not yet made a breakthrough, so naturally there is no so-called decryption, and the rest can only be "breakthroughs." Because there was a "breakthrough", a special report was given on New Year's Eve, and "the leading actress" reporter Bingbing was sent to report on the spot.

Who is Bingbing? Although Yang Chan is busy with family and work, she still knows each other. She knows that she is the current "leading actress" of CCTV. Although she joined CCTV not long ago, she unexpectedly became popular on the short video platform at the beginning of the year, and her performance was generous. , quick thinking, naturally became famous on CCTV, and quickly rose to the top.

“Dark matter breakthrough?”

When Bao Guohua heard this, he suddenly took a breath.

Zhao Lan was also shocked, but soon regained his composure and said with a smile: "Brother is always so powerful, how can other countries chase me?"

Bao Guohua's mouth twitched: "..."

Good guy, is this what it sounds like to have a super big brother?
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. His uncle was really amazing. What's wrong with his loud tone?
As a member of Zhao Mo's family, what's wrong with speaking loudly?
It’s not like breaking laws and disciplines!

And that’s not a big deal, right? It’s just a truth. Other countries really can’t catch up with Zhao Mo!

Dark matter!
That's dark matter!
As an engineer in the aerospace field, how could he not know the importance and influence of dark matter?
In the field of physics, if there is a breakthrough and discovery of dark matter, it will undoubtedly be an explosive event. It is not an exaggeration to say that it will usher in a new era of physics!

From the birth of physics to Newton, it was an era;
Then to Einstein, another era;
If there is a major discovery this time, it will be another brand new era!
"Haha~"

Yang Chan couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Weiguo and Hu Ying did not understand these research matters, but listening to their conversation, they knew that their sons had made great contributions to the country, and they couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Weiguo smiled from ear to ear again, but complained: "I have contributed enough, I should come back to celebrate the New Year this time~"

Hu Ying looked at Dabao and Xiaobao, pointed at the TV and said, "You know, you will learn from your father in the future? You will also pass the Wudaokou exam and become a scientist!"

At their current age, Dabao and Xiaobao still couldn’t understand what the adults were saying, but when they saw everyone laughing, they also laughed heartily with "hahaha" and "kakaka", and then listened to grandma's words and kept saying "Yeah "Hmm" nodded.

Dabao has become a little more sensible, and even replied with a serious face: "I know, grandma, I will be a scientist in the future, as old as dad!"

As old as dad?
"Hahaha……"

Everyone who heard this almost burst out laughing.

While they were talking, reporter Bingbing had already taken the elevator from the entrance to the laboratory more than 2,000 meters underground. This was a very long elevator ride.

I don’t know how long it took, but when the elevator stopped, reporter Bingbing walked out of the elevator. His sight brightened again. What appeared on the TV was a huge bright underground base, like a huge high-speed rail station!
"...Well, I have arrived more than two thousand meters underground. This is the deepest underground laboratory in the history of the world. Our scientists are doing various research here. Among them, the most important , and what everyone is most concerned about is dark matter..."

Reporter Bingbing continued to explain.

Different people have different reactions to seeing this laboratory.

"So big!"

Zhao Weiguo and Hu Ying exclaimed.

"That's awesome!"

Yang Chan, Zhao Lan and Bao Guohua sighed.

Unlike the two elders who were just shocked by the appearance, they were more impressed by what this laboratory represents, which is the strength of national construction capabilities, the strength of the economy, and most importantly, the strength of industrial manufacturing!

Without the strength of the country, the construction of this laboratory is unimaginable, and there is no way it can be successfully constructed.

Soon, following Bingbing's reporter's perspective, they saw many researchers in this laboratory, all of whom were busy nervously.

Then, they met Professor Wang Yuan. Professor Wang Yuan, as the second person in charge of the laboratory, was interviewed by reporter Bingbing.

Another half an hour later, they finally saw the person they met: Zhao Mo.

Wearing protective clothing and a helmet, Zhao Mo was full of energy, not showing any signs of fatigue from studying for so long. He seemed to be completely different from Professor Wang Yuan just now...
