Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

"Boss, that one just now is really Master Zhou? How do you know each other?"

On the elevated road heading to Hongqiao Railway Station, the assistant asked in disbelief.

When she went downstairs with her boss just now, she recognized the handsome guy in the restaurant downstairs even though he only raised his baseball cap, but his face was too famous.

After all, this guy is all the news these days.

Tong Xin leaned her forehead against the car window, seeming to be concentrating with her eyes closed, and the heat from her forehead was gradually taken away.

At this point, we still had to catch the last train, so it was obviously impossible not to feel exhausted.

"My high school classmates."

She didn't want her subordinates to pay attention to this. In her opinion, it was her own private matter, but she already recognized it and there was no need to quibble. The assistant was her confidant and would not talk nonsense.

The assistant covered her mouth: "Yes, yes, you are from Eastern Province too! Oh my God! Such a big boss! Are you eating sheep and scorpions downstairs in our company?"

Is this sheep and scorpion rimmed with gold?

"if not?"

She didn’t want to talk more, but Tong Xin suddenly remembered what Zhou Rui said before and said with a smile:

"Does the big boss have to go out with a dozen bodyguards, clear the way for the motorcade, and not eat the fire of the world?"

The assistant swallowed his saliva. In fact, at the level of Master Zhou, he could no longer be described as "big boss". He should be described as "big shot".

Great wealth is but one of its most common characteristics.

Humans have gossip base pairs engraved in their DNA. The assistant successfully asked the question he really wanted to ask in three sentences: "Boss, you and Master Zhou went to the same school before. How are you on good terms? Do you have any stories? Tell me?"

Tong Xin subconsciously had many pictures flashing through her mind.

The tears at the bus stop, the impulse in the KTV, the camera given by someone when I first entered school, the coat given to me after I made money for the first time, Dabai Village being besieged in the car, the absurd days and nights by Panyang Lake.

For some people, it is just an occasional embellishment in a wonderful life, and they may not even be remembered.

but for her

"unimportant."

It's just that Tong Xin didn't know it, and her voice was very soft when she said this.

It seems that he is afraid that someone will hear him.

"If you have time to think about this, why not plan your itinerary tomorrow? We'll go to Sijiqing in the morning and the e-commerce park in the afternoon. Several suppliers over there have started to act sly recently."

————————

After Tong Xin left, Zhou Rui sat in "Gongsun Yang Xiezi" and ate tastelessly.

I just lit one cigarette and extinguished it after two puffs.

Lin Tuo sat aside and felt that Zhou Rui seemed to be in a low mood, but he was confused and didn't say anything.

Speaking of which, the lady just now seems to have been mentioned in the background information of the Zhou University scientists, but she is not the object of special attention. It may be worth noting in the future.

"Bang!"

Just when Lin Tuo was thinking about whether to say something, Zhou Rui put down the teacup, stood up, and said:

"Let's go back."

Lin Tuo secretly looked at Zhou Rui and felt that the depression just now seemed to have disappeared.

There is a feeling of having figured out something, as if a blocked stream is finally flowing.

Lin Tuo smiled inwardly, thinking that he was indeed "that man" and would not be trapped because of trivial matters.

Listen, he seemed to hear a sound like the sea.

That must be Mr. Zhou’s broad mind!

Zhou Rui put on his hat and walked towards Jiangwan Hanlin, taking a step that he would not recognize his relatives.

Black hair and black hair? Would you rather lose your years?

hehe! Beautiful thought!

While waiting at the traffic light, an aunt walking a teddy next to her kept peeking at him, and Zhou Rui looked over subconsciously.

Admiration level: dry wood and fierce fire.

Strategy difficulty: extremely easy.

Zhou Rui quickly checked his baseball cap and found that it was properly worn on his head.

This is a ruthless person

Zhou Rui trembled and quickly exited [Neptune] Vision.

This ability is prone to danger and can easily shake one's mood.

Zhou Rui returned to Jiangwan Hanlin and sat by the window as usual. He turned on the small shower and was in a daze while he turned on the system.

After looking at the description of the [Neptune] entry, I thought about it for a while, and thought in my heart that "Master" is "Master", and this way it enlightened him.

This should be the original meaning of "master", right?

Then I closed my eyes and opened the system. On the empty taskbar, I hung up [Basic Particle Physics].

Although it’s a bit fun to be tempted by non-subject entries, you still have to be cautious.

I found some papers in related fields on the Internet, and Zhou Rui read them while accompanied by a small shower head.

After five, six or seven more, the basic subjects will be completed. We must keep walking on the difficult road.

It is an extremely difficult road to walk.

Early the next morning, Zhou Rui received a call from someone he hadn't contacted for a long time.

It turned out to be Dean Zhao from Fuda Huayuan.

When Zhou Rui saw the call, he thought he was going back to the Four Elephants Research Institute last night, but he remembered something when he found out.

After all, since graduation, he has had less and less contact with the school.

But after picking it up, it was an unexpected situation.

"Xiao Zhou, is it convenient? I have important news to tell you."

Zhou Rui, who was originally going to go downstairs, simply walked back to the floor-to-ceiling window and finished answering the phone.

Looking into the distance is Fuda University, and maybe you can see Dean Zhao.

Zhou Rui: "Convenient, you say."

Dean Zhao said with joy in his tone: "It's like this. Fuda plans to submit your name for the next round of academician election."

Zhou Rui was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh? This is indeed important news. Academy of Sciences or Academy of Engineering?"

Dean Zhao laughed and joked: "Of course it's the Engineering Academy. I hope you don't feel too late. You have been wronged in the past few years."

"You're welcome, you're not that thick-skinned. I'm in a special situation after all."

Zhou Rui has a strong presence in the scientific community, and it is no exaggeration to say that he has achieved great results.

Ordinary scientific researchers may only make achievements in a certain niche field in their lifetime, but Zhou Rui has made many achievements, and each of them is of practical value.

Kunpeng, Bifang, and Sixiang are invisible. Just say which one is not worthy of being an academician of the Academy of Engineering.

But there are two special cases here.

First of all, he is playing his own game, and he is not on the same path as 99% of scientific researchers.

Develop your own technology, start your own company, and make your own money.

No one knows it yet, but there is only one paper "Perovskite".

Even if it is a paper in the top journal "Science", the scientific research resume is still too thin.

If we strictly follow traditional academic standards, it can even be said to be a large blank.

Of course, the organization attaches great importance to Zhou Rui, which can be seen from the destroyer escort and fighter jets clearing the way. There is absolutely no idea of ​​​​"Xiao Zhou is still young, let him wait a little longer". Even if there is no blank, he can do something special. Give it to me.

Hongqi N501 has been arranged, will this kind of thing be delayed?

But this brings us to the second special point.

Before Zhou Rui emerged as an "enlightened intelligence", his achievements were basically military secrets.

He was attacked because he was suspected of being involved in the development of weapons technology by the C**.

Being elected as an academician means making your achievements and fields public to the whole society.

Generally speaking, military scientists usually make full use of their achievements. After ten years or even more, they will gradually make their achievements public and be elected as academicians.

This is not only to protect confidentiality, but also to protect these scientists themselves.

Excluding those things that are inconvenient to publish, before the emergence of Tai Tiangong, it would be a bit baffling and unconvincing to the public if only "smart drones" were rated as academicians.

Although all the meritorious deeds are correct and turned into plaques hanging in Zhou Rui's home, compared with the public honor of "academician", it still lacks momentum.

But it's different now. When "Nantianmen" comes out, the weight of this achievement is definitely enough.

In fact, there was one thing that Dean Zhao did not say. It was not Fuda's intention to declare Zhou Rui's name this time, because they had not even started working on the new round of academician selection.

This means something passed down from above.

The organization has found a suitable reason to give Zhou Ruian the title of academician.

Hurry up and fill in this name for me! Use it urgently!

I'm afraid the higher-ups have been worrying about this matter for a while.

That's why Dean Zhao said, "I've wronged you."

Zhou Rui touched his nose and said, "Why am I wronged? I'm so cool."

You want money, you want fame, you want position.

Academician is a very high honor, but for him, it is just an honor, or a supplement to honor.

This time, Zhou Rui will be nominated for a new round of co-optation of academicians of the Academy of Engineering based on two academic achievements: rocket recovery technology and orbital mechanical platform technology.

The will from top to bottom, the results that are enough to convince the crowd, the amazing talent, everything will fall into place.

This time the nomination will be submitted by the Academic Association of Fuzhou University, and a number of academicians including Dean Zhao will be the nominators.

However, the procedures that need to be followed still need to be followed, and Dean Zhao is here to communicate this matter in detail.

"Xiao Zhou, I know you are busy, but some processes still need to be perfected before the list of co-opted candidates is officially announced."

"Aren't you always interested in Wu Huamin's postgraduate studies? I know you are not in the mood to fiddle with these. In this way, the school will change you to a master's and doctoral degree program. You have free time to write some papers. If you are not in the mood, let Wu Huamin do it. We You will be graduated directly based on the non-public thesis calculation.”

This is no longer called the back door, but the back door is wider and brighter than the front door.

But the target is Zhou Rui, so no one will think that he is using his power for personal gain.

Even if Zhou Rui does nothing, the academician title will still fall on him in the end, because this is what it means.

Therefore, by arranging various "seemingly reasonable procedures" for Zhou Rui, it was actually doing Fuda a favor and saving people from having random thoughts later.

"In addition, you need to hold academic positions in key scientific research projects. This is easy to get, but the one on the second floor of the Materials Building is inconvenient. But I will hand over the position of director of the Solar Energy Research Institute to you later. Of course, you don't have to worry about the actual management."

"If you have participated in international academic conferences, the international conferences organized by Fuda are very interesting. If you are in the mood, just come and sit there without talking. There is no need to go abroad."

This is probably the most worry-free academician.

People always try their best to make up for whatever they lack, but if he lacks something, someone will immediately feed him into his mouth.

Zhou Rui couldn't help but wonder if the academy could send a counselor immediately if a wife was required for academician selection.

Don't think these rules are cumbersome. Without rules, nothing can be achieved. The selection of academicians is for scientific researchers across the country, and it is impossible to guarantee that everyone is pure and outstanding.

Without rules, there will be chaos.

There are always people who despise "rules and regulations" and feel that they are dogmatic and rigid, and that people are so sophisticated. In fact, they are just unable to adapt to them and are not qualified enough.

You see, a truly strong person, no matter how many "rules and regulations" are in front of him.

"Being outside the box" will also change its shape and become the shape of a strong person.

Zhou Rui smiled and said, "I understand, but let's just ask Wu Huamin to write the paper for me. It's the end of the year and I have some new ideas."

The instructor is too weak and cannot afford to throw that person away.

Dean Zhao didn’t understand what the end of the year had to do with new ideas. Shouldn’t we be too lazy to do anything at the end of the year and just wait for the New Year?

"Uh, that's fine. If you're free today, can you come to school to sign?"

"Okay, I'm at home and will be there soon."

Zhou Rui hung up the phone and walked out of the house.

But I am thinking in my heart that there is still one "tracing back to the roots" and "imitating the tiger" this year, and they must be used before December 31.

Which one should be used as the material for the "doctoral thesis"?

————

Generally speaking, new academicians have to go through nomination, preliminary review, review, final review, publicity and announcement. At present, it is just a nomination, but Zhou Rui should be the most stable nomination.

After leaving Jiangwan Hanlin, he first went to Fuda Huayuan and filled out this document, basically agreeing to run for the election and promising that all the information was true and valid. After that, he had tea with Dean Zhao for a while.

This selection is a good thing for Zhou Rui, and also for Fuda.

The concept of "academician" can be traced back to the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, when it was called "faculty member", which is a super-standard title that integrates "position" and "honor".

The modern "academician" is actually a split of the original concept of "faculty member". The "academician" that ordinary people understand actually originated in the 1990s.

The Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, the former focuses on basic science and theoretical research, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology, while the latter focuses on practical engineering technology, are collectively referred to as academicians of the two academies.

Additional elections are held every two years. Although the number of additional elections is increasing each time, the competition is still extremely fierce. So far, Fuda has only 34 academicians, and only 25 are still active.

Brackets—Academicians are not necessarily born in universities, but are also born in enterprises. Regardless of state-owned enterprises or private enterprises, in fact, only 60% of them are elected every year from various universities.

(There are indeed very few private enterprises, but they exist.)

In principle, Zhou Rui could seek recommendations from previous academicians and then strive for them himself, but he had no intention of doing so before. Now that the matter has fallen on deaf ears, it can be said that he got a big advantage.

By securing a spot and announcing his relationship with Zhou Rui, he gained both face and dignity.

Although Zhou Rui's relationship with the school has become less and less in recent years, he received a lot of help at the beginning, so the process will not make it difficult for the school.

Dean Zhao handed over a newly compiled form and said: "This is the list of international academic conferences held by Fuda from now until the middle of next year. They are all related to engineering, chemistry, and materials. Please take the time to come and sit down."

Zhou Rui took a look and found that there weren't many. After all, the scope of the field had been narrowed.

The closest thing is next week, there is a conference in the field of batteries and energy storage.

You can come and join in the fun.

In the next two days, Zhou Rui focused mainly on the planning of Nantianmen.

Basically, some previous communications have been gradually implemented in various meetings.

As an orbital platform, it is just like a space station. Even if there is nothing on it, it is an important page in the history of human science and technology and engineering. But after all, it cannot be wasted. Only by gradually enriching its content can it maximize its value.

According to the agreement with the space agency, new tenons will be launched into orbit at an average frequency of once a month. While expanding the Nantianmen, the "Qian Xuesen Orbital Platform" will also be built.

In addition, the purpose of the third-phase platform, which was not explained to Khalid, will actually be established as a militarized platform.

The third phase of the platform will be launched secretly, without explanation or purpose, until the time is right to surprise the world.

After a short three-day rest, the Wanhu Base resumed its busy schedule. The components of the "Jingtian-1" that were successfully recovered were transported back to the base, awaiting maintenance and debugging.

Launches will become more and more normal in the future. In order to cope with the launch demand and to have sufficient fault tolerance, Taiyang Tiangong has ordered a complete set of components for five more "Jingtian-1" units, which will be gradually delivered.

However, Zhou Rui will gradually withdraw his energy from this part of normal launch and maintenance. He has Shan Chunyuan and Che Gan on the rocket side, and Wang Tao on the mortise and tenon joint. As long as there are no major problems, he does not need to intervene too much.

He only plays high-end games.
