Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

"Academician Cheng, Professor Tian, ​​this experience of participating in the project has allowed me to learn a lot from you two and other experts. Seeing that my design plan can be successfully realized bit by bit, this This feeling is really unforgettable.”

"Yes, it is an honor for each of our scientific researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences to participate in such a national-level project. Ning Chen, this project was started because of you. During the research process of the project, you also made the greatest contribution Contribution. After the project is completed, you will get the rewards you deserve."

Ning Chen didn't pay much attention to the rewards. These were just incidental things in the scientific research process.

What Ning Chen hopes to see most is that this new type of steel material can be used in the next generation of aerospace and aviation equipment as soon as possible. This is Ning Chen's ultimate wish.

When that day comes, Ning Chen believes that he will be so excited that tears will come to his eyes.

After telling Cheng Zhong and Tian Shihao that he would not continue to participate in the next project, Ning Chen thought that he would have to express his thoughts to Tao Wei again.

After all, I contacted Tao Wei about this matter first, so I definitely couldn't just leave without saying goodbye.

After confirming with Luo Fang that Tao Wei was in the office, Ning Chen came to Tao Wei's office.

"Ning Chen, I heard that your project team has achieved outstanding results. These new steel materials are about to enter the application research stage."

It can be seen that Tao Wei has high information authority. Even if it is not the research field he is responsible for, Tao Wei can still get some internal information.

"Yes, Academician Tao, during the entire research period, the overall progress has been relatively smooth. At each experimental stage, we will make some new breakthroughs than before..."

After telling Tao Wei about his experiences in some projects, Ning Chen said:

"Academician Tao, at this stage of the project, I feel that I have done my best. Please forgive me for not continuing to participate in the subsequent research work of this project."

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Tao Wei nodded and said:

"Well, you can choose these by yourself. Then, will you continue to intern at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, or return to Shengzhou University?"

"I'd better go back to Shengzhou University. In fact, while participating in this project, I am equivalent to doing an internship."

"Haha, so coming to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for internship is just an excuse for you. You come to the Chinese Academy of Sciences this time just because you want to hand over your research results on steel materials."

When Tao Wei talked about the essence of the matter, Ning Chen also felt a little embarrassed and quickly explained:

"I can't say that. I have always had the idea of ​​interning at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and I just took advantage of this opportunity to complete these two things together."

"Well, whether you want to come to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for an internship or come here to hand in scientific research results, our Chinese Academy of Sciences will welcome you very much. It doesn't matter if you return to Shengzhou University as soon as possible. I'm still waiting for you to continue to make more progress in the field of superconductivity. Going further."

One of Tao Wei's wishes is to see that the technology of room-temperature superconductors can really be realized in his lifetime.

With Tao Wei's current scientific research status, he would definitely not be able to do this, so he could only place his hopes on Ning Chen.

After returning to the dormitory, Ning Chen packed up his things, checked online for tickets to return to Shengzhou, and made preparations to go back.

At this time, Ning Chen was thinking whether he should go to Yanda University to meet Song Xiyun and Lin You before returning to Shengzhou, and also go to Shuimu University to visit Qiu Chengtong.

After all, when Ning Chen came to Yanjing, normally he would visit his friends in Yanjing.

Moreover, Qiu Chengtong also specifically told Ning Chen before that every time he comes to Yanjing in the future, he must come and have a chat with him.

But Ning Chen thought about it and decided not to show up in front of them this time.

Because Ning Chen came to Yanjing this time to carry out some top-secret scientific research projects. If they asked about the purpose of his coming to Yanjing this time, Ning Chen would not be able to answer.

Precisely because this visit to Yanjing was done in secret, no one except the people from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Ning Chen’s laboratory at Shengzhou University knew that Ning Chen had been to Yanjing. Therefore, Ning Chen decided to go back quietly by himself.

After making the decision, Ning Chen picked a flight ticket to return to Shengzhou at a suitable time.

After returning to Shengzhou, Ning Chen came to the laboratory early the next day as before.

Seeing Ning Chen come back, Xu Zhou asked habitually:

"Ning Chen, you just came back from Yanjing yesterday, right?"

"Yes, as expected of Teacher Xu, you know me best."

"How are you doing this internship at the Chinese Academy of Sciences? How many papers have you submitted?"

Recalling Ning Chen's previous experience of submitting an article for "Science" and an article for "Cell" during his internship at Yanda, Xu Zhou felt that Ning Chen would not return empty-handed this time.

"Teacher Xu, not this time."

After hearing Ning Chen's answer, Xu Zhou became suspicious.

"Really? That's not normal. You really just went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for an internship and didn't get any results?"

Ning Chen knew that Xu Zhou would not believe what he said.

"Mr. Xu, you also know that some of the research done by the Chinese Academy of Sciences is not the same as the nature of the university's scientific research projects..."

Hearing what Ning Chen said, Xu Zhou quickly reacted.

"Understand, the research on superconducting wire strips involves application issues, and the results are not easy to publish. In fact, the results that cannot be published are even more powerful. You are a person participating in a national key research project."

Xuzhou followed Ning Chen's prompts and automatically figured out Ning Chen's research results during his internship at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Of course, this is not the same as the research project Ning Chen actually conducted at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Due to confidentiality reasons, Ning Chen could not truthfully tell Xu Zhou his true experience.

Ning Chen felt that after many years, when this matter had passed the confidentiality period, maybe he and Xu Zhou could talk about the past events again.

…

As the end of the semester approaches, while Ning Chen is conducting research on his own topic, he is also preparing for the final exams in various subjects.

The final exams of various subjects were not a challenge to Ning Chen. However, in order to graduate with a doctorate earlier, Ning Chen still tried his best to arrange exams for as many subjects as possible during this semester.

After completing these final exam tasks, Ning Chen could finally focus on his research.

"Although the task given to me by the system now is to study D-level mathematical problems, I should still focus on research on materials science at the moment. Mathematical problems at this level are not that easy to answer. I spend more than ten hours a day on it. Above, it may have the opposite effect.”

Ning Chen decided to balance his time schedule, focusing on materials and supplementing with mathematics, instead of blindly following the guidance of the system.

This way of arranging time made Ning Chen feel a lot more relaxed. He spent most of his time during the day on the research of materials science, and spent a few hours at night studying Navier-Stokes. Equations, try to find some entry points that you can try.

After days of research, Ning Chen already had some ideas of his own on solving problems related to the Navier-Stokes equation.
