Chapter 984: Talent Flourishing (1)

An Yi returned to Houzai Lane full of worries, and before he entered the house after getting out of the car, he heard a pleasant silver bell-like laughter, and sped up his pace in confusion, and when he stepped into the living room, he saw a group of well-dressed men and women sitting together and talking in a whisper, patted his head suddenly, and quickly apologized:

"Look at my memory, it's been hard, hard...... Mingxuan, when did you arrive? ”

After saying that, he stepped forward quickly and cordially shook hands with the first batch of students studying in the United States, such as Qiu Mingxuan, Ding Molan, and Zhang Ruyi, who had stopped talking and stood up happily to greet them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qiu Mingxuan was so excited that his hands kept trembling: "Sir, since we left for the United States to study six years ago, we have been thinking about the motherland all the time, thinking about the old Nanchang, missing the chief, and thinking about our career. Now that we've come back, we're never leaving......"

An Yi was very happy, and just wanted to say a few words, when he suddenly saw the tears rolling down the eyes of Ding Molan and Zhang Ruyi on the side, his heart moved, and he joked with a smile: "What's wrong?" When did our strong female soldier squad leader become so sentimental? Mo Lan, Ru Yi, how are you doing in the past few years? ”

Ding Molan and Zhang Ruyi quickly wiped away the tears on their faces, and a trace of blush appeared on their bright and moving faces.

Ding Molan whispered a little shyly: "It's not very good...... We all study in the United States, trying to keep up with our superiors...... We rarely have a spare time on weekdays, and sometimes when sisters get together, they can't help but talk about you, about our time in the army, and as time goes by, this nostalgia grows stronger. Sir, all your deeds in the past few years, we have learned about it through the newspaper, and treasured it in the form of newspaper clippings, when you were assassinated in 28 years, Ru Yi and I cried to death, and we were ready to buy a ticket to come back, and we only gave up when we learned that you woke up...... Sir, it's good to see you again, and though we're getting farther and farther apart now, that's not a reason to stop us from loving him, what do you say? ”

This is An Yi's first confession since she met Ding Molan in Kunshan, An Yi was very moved, there was a sour feeling in his heart, and a few doubts arose: Hasn't Qiu Mingxuan been pursuing Ding Molan? How do you listen to Ding Molan's tone, it seems that Qiu Mingxuan did not succeed? So what happened to the news I received that Qiu Mingxuan was married?

Qiu Mingxuan seemed to know An Yi's doubts, smiled and pulled a twenty-four or five-year-old girl beside him, with a delicate face and a slender figure, and solemnly introduced to An Yi:

"Sir, this is my wife, Peng Jialian, a native of Xingyi, Guizhou, who studied in the United States in the same period as me. Jia Lian studied petrochemical engineering, and after coming to the United States, we were assigned to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology together, I studied mechanical engineering and physics, and Jia Lian majored in chemical engineering, we were attracted to each other, took care of each other, and got married two years ago. ”

It turned out to be the wrong person! An Yi nodded apologetically at Ding Molan and Zhang Ruyi, and then stretched out his hand to Peng Jialian in a friendly manner: "It turns out that you are Peng Jialian...... I saw you before you went abroad, you were thin and small at the time, but I didn't expect you to be so beautiful now. ”

Peng Jialian held An Yi's hand tightly and said with a serious face: "Sir, thank you, thank you for changing my life." My father studied geology and moved around all the year round, although I was taught knowledge and culture by my father since I was a child, but I have not had enough food and clothing, and the sun on the plateau, so I will be the image you see. It was you who provided me with the opportunity to study in the United States and gave me the opportunity to grow......"

An Yi smiled and shook his head: "Don't thank me, it's still your own strength that gives you the opportunity to stand out from the thousands of people who participated in the selection, and you are returning from your studies now, which is the best reward for me." ”

Peng Jialian said: "Sir, you are the most generous person I have ever met, after studying petrochemical at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for a year, I was fortunate to participate in the research of nylon, and when I knew that this genius idea was proposed by you, I had a new understanding of you." Sir, you're a genius, but you shouldn't tell DuPont about this groundbreaking idea, you don't know how profitable it is. ”

An Yi was very surprised: "Jialian, since you have participated in the research of nylon, do you know all the processes for making nylon?" ”

Peng Jialian nodded: "Of course, it's not complicated. In fact, not only nylon, all the research on the petrochemical industry, I have been involved, such as purifying gasoline, kerosene, diesel, heavy oil and other fuels, as well as plastics, synthetic rubber, synthetic fibers and other polymer synthetic materials development process, in addition, pesticides, fertilizers, coatings, dyes and other production, I also know the special production process, and nylon, is only a branch of polymer synthetic materials. ”

Seeing Peng Jialian's confident face and Qiu Mingxuan's pride with a look of pity, An Yi knew that he had picked up the treasure this time. The construction of petrochemical industry has always been a weak link in the development of southern Sichuan, after the Ou's Group and the Rockefeller consortium of the United States cooperated to open three large oil fields in the Nanyang Islands and the Philippines, the oil supply in southern Sichuan has become unprecedentedly abundant, and now in the mountains of Xiangxi and southern Sichuan, strategic oil reserves have begun to be built everywhere to prepare for the future war of resistance against Japan.

However, the use of oil has been limited to the extraction of various fuels, and the remaining residues have to be used as waste materials for landfilling, except for asphalt used to pave roads, and over time, the pollution to the environment has increased. Although due to the good relationship with the DuPont Group, a year ago the south of Sichuan ordered the relevant chemical production equipment from the DuPont Group, and the nitrogen fertilizer plant and the plastic plant were put into operation successively, but the engineers sent by the United States only carried out production training and did not involve theoretical research at all. Now Peng Jialian's return can be said to be a boon to the independent development of the petrochemical industry in southern Sichuan.

An Yi said with a smile: "Jialian, since you know the production process of nylon, you should understand that according to the conditions in China five or six years ago, even if I know some theoretical knowledge, it will be very difficult to create and invent it myself." And DuPont itself is working on nylon, and even if I don't bring it up, they're just delaying the launch for a few years. When Zhang Xi went to the United States, it was by relying on nylon as a stepping stone that he opened the door to American high society and improved the situation of the Chinese, otherwise according to the 'Chinese Exclusion Act', how could the Massachusetts Institute of Technology allow you to enter the most advanced petrochemical major for further study? Everything has a cause and effect, if my efforts can be exchanged for the growth of you talents, I am willing! ”

Peng Jialian was a smart person, and her pretty face flushed: "I'm sorry, sir, I misunderstood you!" ”

An Yi waved his hand and said to Qiu Mingxuan with a smile: "Mingxuan, your wife is amazing!" We are in great need of petrochemical experts, and now there is a lack of a director in the petrochemical research institute in southern Sichuan, and your wife will serve as the director, what do you think? ”

Qiu Mingxuan and Peng Jialian looked at each other, neither of them expected that An Yi would be given a heavy responsibility as soon as he came back. Qiu Mingxuan just wanted to be modest, but Peng Jialian had already said arrogantly: "If you really dare to appoint me, I will dare to do it, and I will definitely do it well!" ”

Qiu Mingxuan had no choice but to smile and said: "At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Jia Lian is also in charge of a research group because of her unforgettable ability and profound knowledge. Originally, the United States wanted to keep Jialian, and DuPont even offered a weekly salary of $100 to hire Jialian, but she refused. This time, she can be regarded as having got her wish! ”

An Yi said solemnly: "Although money cannot measure a person's value, since a person has paid, he should be rewarded accordingly." I don't promise to pay you a lot of salary, because we have a fixed salary here, and there are rules on how much you should get at any level, but I can guarantee that as long as you produce the corresponding research, we can give you 20% of the profit from the results, which is not a little more than the salary of a hundred dollars. ”

Zhang Ruyi saw that An Yi was full of praise for Peng Jialian, and couldn't help but get anxious: "Sir, we are not idle abroad...... Mo Lan and I studied at New York University, Mo Lan was engaged in mathematics and physics research, and I studied in medical school, and our achievements were not necessarily much worse than Sister Jia Lian. ”

"Oh?"

An Yi asked with interest, "What have you all learned?" ”

Ding Molan's beautiful face shone with a moving look: "Sir, we have not wasted every minute and every second in the past few years, I have studied very extensively, mathematics, engineering, and electromagnetism have been involved, among which the probability and statistics of mathematics can be used to decipher code, in addition to aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, ballistics, aerial maps, meteorology, calculations, etc., all need to use mathematical knowledge." As for engineering, I majored in industrial design and electrical engineering, and electromagnetism......"

Zhang Ruyi said: "In terms of electromagnetism, Sister Mo Lan is even more amazing, she and I rescued a white old man who was in shock in Central Park in New York. This old man was very pitiful, childless, poor, and surprisingly fluent in Chinese. Mo Lan had a good heart, and after the old man was discharged from the hospital, she took him to our rented apartment to take care of his daily life. After the old man's health gradually improved, we learned that this old man was extremely knowledgeable, could speak more than 10 languages, and his research in engineering and electromagnetism was unfathomable. Slowly, Mo Lan encountered problems in learning, and began to ask the old man for advice, and then the old man simply taught him the knowledge he had mastered, and now Mo Lan's level is estimated to be much higher than that of our professor. ”

An Yi was very surprised: "There is still such a thing? What is the name of this old man and where is he now? ”

Ding Molan thought for a while: "He is Serbian, and we usually call him Uncle Nikolai, but this time when we helped him buy a ferry ticket and came back together, I looked at his documents, as if his full name was Nikolai. Truss, who is said to be very unpopular with orthodox scientists in the United States, has a deep grudge against the great inventor Edison, who died three years ago, because some scientific ideas have been criticized for many years. Now Uncle Nikolai is staying in the Jiangnan Hotel in Nanjing, and I am going to take him with me so that I can get more teaching. I believe that with the talent of Uncle Nikolai, it will be helpful for our scientific research. ”

"Nikolai. Truss? ”

An Yi muttered a few times in his mouth, feeling that the name was very unfamiliar, thinking that it might be some scientist who was not well-known in history, so he gently let it go in his heart, and almost lost his hand to this genius who was known as Leonardo da Vinci.

"Mo Lan, although I don't know how far you have reached your studies, I believe that you and Ru Yi's efforts are definitely not below anyone. In this way, now our research on electromagnetism in southern Sichuan is still in its infancy, if you don't mind, I am going to set up a special research institute, with you as the director, your Uncle Nikolai, as your assistant, and then you will select the assistant among the talents who have returned to China this time, how about it? ”

"This—"

Ding Molan hesitated a little, but Zhang Ruyi encouraged: "What are you afraid of, Sister Molan, since Sister Jialian dares to take on heavy responsibilities, what are you afraid of?" ”

Ding Molan finally nodded: "Okay...... Among our international students in the same period, there are six students in related majors, and I don't know if they would like to work under me. ”

After saying Ding Molan's words, An Yi remembered that there were as many as fifty students in the first batch to study in the United States, and now there are only seven of them here, what about the others? Could it be that they also learn from those international students in later generations, and they don't want to come back when they go abroad?

An Yi said the doubts in his heart, and Qiu Mingxuan explained: "Everyone else has gone home to visit relatives, and in a month they will report to the address where the 'An Yi Education Foundation' is located in old Nanchang." After studying abroad for six years, many classmates have changed in their families, and some have experienced the test of war and disaster, although everyone is worried when they are in the United States, they can only hold back in their hearts, and when they come back this time to set foot on the land of the motherland, they can no longer bear it, Shanghai Wharf has walked a third, and when they arrived in Nanjing, they have walked more than half, and a few of us have come to report to the chief first because of our concern for the chief. ”

After speaking, Qiu Mingxuan introduced the other three to An Yi.

One of them is Shi Feng from the old Nanchang, 26 years old this year, studying at the California Institute of Technology, graduated from mechanical engineering, and is best at the research and manufacturing of industrial machine tools; One is Han Chengfu, who was originally a technician at the Shanghai Telephone and Telegraph Bureau before going abroad, and has a strong skill in electrical maintenance, and was admitted to Harvard University after a year of preparatory study in the United States.

The last one is a heroic girl - Zhu Yuning, she is a native of Qufu, Shandong, when she was young, she had a short experience of studying in Japan, when she was considering her qualifications as an international student, after a discussion, and later learned that her family had a bitter hatred with the Japanese, and her brother died at the hands of the Japanese before passing the assessment, An Yi still had some impressions.

Zhu Yuning is tall and fit, with a somewhat rough appearance, short ear-length hair, and the whole person looks very energetic. After studying in the United States, she entered Harvard University to study mechanical engineering, and was extremely talented in ordnance manufacturing.
