From all-round academic master to chief scientist - Chapter 214 Welcome back!
“Lin Xiao, welcome home!”
Ma Gaoliang walked towards Lin Xiao and laughed loudly.
“Welcome home!”
Others also walked up with smiles and expressed their welcome to Lin Xiao.
This grand pick-up was not only to let Lin Xiao know that they had not forgotten him, it was also a political mission.
This kind of thing is inevitable everywhere.
Of course, for Lin Xiao, he doesn’t care about this kind of show-off. In any case, the more attention the country pays to him, the more helpful it will be for his future ideas.
“Thanks.”
Facing the welcome of these people, Lin Xiao also opened his hands and greeted them with a smile.
The first is Director Ma Gaoliang. As the main leading organization that manages the country’s scientific community, he is a figure in the political world, so when he comes to greet Lin Xiao, he can be regarded as representing the country.
He came to Lin Xiao, smiled and shook his hand, and said: “You have worked hard abroad, now you are home, China will always stand behind you.”
“I know, that’s why I came back.”
Lin Xiao nodded in response.
Then they both laughed and hugged briefly.
Such a scene also caused the surrounding cameramen to quickly take pictures.
If you don’t want to take pictures of this scene, then photographers like them shouldn’t do it either.
After the hug, Ma Gaoliang walked aside so that others could say a few words to Lin Xiao.
The first is naturally Lin Xiao’s former mentor, Xu Ji.
“Professor Xu.”
“Haha, you can be considered Professor Lin now. It has only been a few years.”
Xu Ji said with a smile.
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
After the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris awarded him the title of honorary professor, he could no longer be called Professor Lin.
It’s really strange to suddenly be promoted from student to professor.
“That’s still far from you, the academician.”
“Not far, not far.”
Xu Ji patted Lin Xiao’s shoulder, then opened his hand and asked with a smile: “Would you like a hug?”
“It’s disrespectful.”
Lin Xiao smiled, then opened her hand and hugged Xu Ji briefly, and there was another shutter sound all around.
Naturally, things were not over yet. Lin Xiao had various exchanges with other people. Naturally, those who came here were not only people from the mathematics community, but also people from the physics community.
Several academicians of theoretical physics also came, and academicians of experimental physics also came. Lin Xiao’s ability to win the Wolf Prize in Physics has already demonstrated his status in the physics world. If several domestic academicians of physics had not come to pick him up, , that is obviously unjustifiable. Of course, regardless of status, just talking about Lin Xiao’s achievements in physics is enough for these academicians to come and meet Lin Xiao.
After all, multidimensional field theory is a new physics founded by Lin Xiao. They all want to know how Lin Xiao came up with the idea of multidimensional field theory.
Lin Xiao greeted the academicians of physics one by one until the fifth academician.
“you are?”
The academician said: “I am Wang Yi from the Institute of High Energy Physics.”
Lin Xiao was stunned, Institute of High Energy Physics?
Isn’t this the research institute that he had a conflict with about half a year ago?
Although he didn’t even respond to this matter at first.
Of course, half a year had passed, and someone came to pick him up at the airport, which was a sign of his attitude, so he smiled and said, “Hello, Academician Wang.”
Wang Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lin Xiao did not remember the original incident. Although the original incident had nothing to do with Wang Yi and the culprit had left the Institute of High Energy Physics, as the director, he still had a need Come over and apologize to Lin Xiao in person.
So he apologized: “There was some unpleasantness between our High Energy Institute and you before, and I hereby solemnly apologize to you.”
Lin Xiao smiled heartily, waved his hand and said: “It doesn’t matter, it happened a few months ago, and I have almost forgotten it. And that matter has nothing to do with Academician Wang. I also believe that Academician Wang will not do that kind of thing.” Things come up.”
Wang Yi laughed and said: “Thank you for your understanding. I am very happy to see a genius like you in our country, especially your root investigation method, which is also very useful for our research.” It’s helpful, of course, and I welcome you to our Institute of High Energy Physics to help with our research.”
“I will definitely go if I have the chance.” Lin Xiao nodded.
“good.”
Wang Yi smiled and nodded, then said no more and left Lin Xiao to others.
Of course, other people also saw the conversation between Lin Xiao and Wang Yi, and saw that Lin Xiao did not express anger, which also made everyone feel a little emotional.
I have long heard that Lin Xiao has a good personality, and now that I have seen it, it is indeed true.
People with good personalities are more popular with people, and people present are more willing to have a good relationship with Lin Xiao.
At the same time, people around him recognized Lin Xiao early.
It is now past eleven o’clock, and many people have learned that Lin Xiao won the Wolf Double Award. Basically, they have seen Lin Xiao’s photos in the relevant news. Although those photos were taken before, the time has changed. It didn’t take long for people to recognize it.
At this time, everyone realized that such a huge airport pick-up team was here to greet Lin Xiao.
People couldn’t help but sigh, maybe only a genius scientist like Lin Xiao could achieve this level at such a young age, right?
Of course, more people were excited.
In China, there are many people who are potential fans of Lin Xiao. Most of them have more or less admired Lin Xiao in their hearts after learning about Lin Xiao’s deeds in the past.
Nowadays, there are many people who like to criticize Lin Xiao on the Internet, always talking about the issue of returning to China. This makes those who are fans of Lin Xiao feel angry, but they are helpless. After all, Lin Xiao did not come back before, and Hua Guo It is true that many talents never come back after going abroad.
But now, Lin Xiao appeared in front of them, undoubtedly breaking those rumors.
Lin Xiao has returned to China!
Their Lin Shen is not the kind of person who forgets his family except his country, as people say.
Immediately, many people took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and some shouted to Lin Xiao: “God Lin! Welcome back to China!”
Lin Xiao turned around and looked, then nodded and waved to the onlookers.
Seeing Lin Xiao waving, these people became even more excited.
Some people who had just entered the airport pick-up hall couldn’t help but curse when they saw the situation inside: “Are they picking up some celebrity again? Fuck, do such people have any contribution to society?”
Then someone next to him said: “It’s Lin Xiao who is back, the same Lin Xiao who was in the news today and won the International Mathematics Prize and the Physics Prize.”
The person who was scolding was stunned, and his face suddenly became excited.
“Holy shit! Lin Shen?!”
“Ah~Lin Shen!”
…
In this way, the Shangjing International Airport is extremely lively today.
Of course, time passed very quickly, and people could basically see Lin Xiao’s fatigue, so it didn’t take long for him to take Lin Xiao back to the city and to the hotel Lin Xiao had booked. , allowing him to finally have some rest.
Including Mimi of course.
For animals, it’s really not good to go back and forth like this. Fortunately, Mimi has probably been running around with Lin Xiao for a long time, and she is used to things like flying, so except for being a little depressed, everything else is going well.
Of course, Lin Xiao won’t have to take Mimi around in the future. Anyway, even if he goes abroad in the future, he won’t stay long. What’s more, he may not be able to go abroad in the future.
When the photolithography machine project started, it was impossible to avoid foreign eyes and ears with this huge mobilization of manpower and material resources. This was not like the titanium-aluminum alloy material that Lin Xiao had researched. Because there were not many people mobilized, it was easier to keep secrets. Guaranteed, no relevant information has been leaked so far.
However, Lin Xiao did not immediately reveal his intention to carry out research on the lithography machine project.
The lithography machine in his mind has more than 100,000 parts. Even if it only counts the core parts, there are nearly 20,000. Therefore, before starting the lithography machine project, he must at least have a thorough understanding of these core parts, and then Come up with some plans.
In this way, when he goes to the country to ask for money, he can ask for more and be more confident.
Telling the country “I want to build a photolithography machine” without having anything is no different from those who defraud state subsidies by building new energy vehicles.
In short, there is no need to be too anxious about this matter. After all, it is something that was created by gathering the wisdom of all mankind. In the face of sanctions from almost the entire world, China wants to complete the miracle of manufacturing lithography machines in one country. ,needs time.
Lin Xiao is also ready for a long-term struggle.
…
Time passed quickly.
About a week passed.
Lin Xiao finally finished all kinds of social activities and had time to return to Beijing University to deal with his studies.
Arriving at the school, I found Xu Ji’s office.
Seeing him entering the office, Xu Ji stood up and greeted him with a smile: “Come on, come on, come on, sit down.”
“Xiao Li, go get your idol a glass of water.”
The graduate student named Xiao Li immediately went to pour a glass of water for Lin Xiao and handed it to him respectfully: “Master Lin, please have tea.”
Lin Xiao took the tea and said, dumbfounded, “It doesn’t have to be like this.”
“I want it.” Xiao Li said, “You are my idol.”
“I won’t disturb you anymore.” After saying that, Xiao Li turned around and returned to his seat.
Lin Xiao shook his head with a smile, then looked at Xu Ji and said with a smile: “From today on, I have completely graduated.”
“Well, I’ve completely graduated.”
Xu Ji nodded with a smile and took out two certificates from the table.
PhD certificate in Mathematics from Beijing University, and PhD diploma.
“Of course, as I said before, there is also a graduation ceremony prepared for you.”
Lin Xiao took the two certificates, flipped them over and said, “When?”
“It will be held the day after tomorrow for the whole school, in the auditorium, so you still need to give a speech then.”
Xu Ji said with a smile.
Lin Xiao couldn’t help but glared: “Why do so many people want to watch my graduation?”
Xu Jixiao burst out laughing: “Of course, let’s show off the demeanor of our Peking University graduates. We will also invite people from outside the school to come over. There may be dozens of academicians.”
Lin Xiao shook his head helplessly, but after all, it was his own school, and it would be his alma mater from now on, so he would not refuse.
“Oh, by the way, there will be another surprise then.”
“What surprise?”
“It’s time…forget it, I’ll tell you first.” Xu Ji shook his head: “I don’t think this is a surprise to you.”
Lin Xiao became even more confused, “Just tell me.”
“We, the School of Mathematical Sciences at Beijing University, have officially extended an offer to you and invited you to be our professor. What do you think?”
Hearing Xu Ji’s words, Lin Xiao was slightly startled, and then smiled: “How can this not be a surprise? Of course it is a surprise.”
Hearing Lin Xiao’s promise, Xu Ji laughed and said, “That’s good, that’s good. I’m worried that you don’t like our school.”
“How could that happen?”
Lin Xiao waved his hand and said: “I believe no one will refuse to be offered a position in my alma mater.”
“Hahaha! That’s true!”
Xu Ji stood up with a smile, then the expression on his face straightened again, and he stretched out his hand to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao stood up without knowing why, and then shook hands with Xu Ji.
“Professor Xu, what is this?”
Xu Ji smiled again: “Professor Lin, we will be colleagues from now on, and we should look after each other. I also hope that you can create more theories like multi-dimensional field theory in this position. After all, you still have So young.”
Hearing Xu Ji’s words, Lin Xiao felt refreshed, then nodded and said, “Thank you, Professor Xu, this is also my pursuit in life.”
“Well, so be it.”
Xu Ji nodded, then smiled and said: “Of course, I am notifying you in advance. After your graduation ceremony tomorrow, the principal will personally issue you a letter of appointment. You should be more surprised then, but don’t tell anyone. I told you the news first.”
Lin Xiao smiled and nodded: “Definitely, definitely.”
