Chapter 400 Welcome Home
After placing various web orders.
Xu Yun entrusted an old acquaintance to build a steel knife, and agreed to deliver it in a week—I mentioned it in the original copy of Maimai, there are various machine tools in the University of Science and Technology, and it is not troublesome to make a knife.
As long as you prepare the spring steel plate yourself, you don’t need to use an angle grinder like a cold weapon shop, you can easily get some weapons.
At that time, it was even rumored that a talented person in HKUST polished the rifling and some other parts by himself, tinkered with a handful of micro punches, and then fired Skittles in the dormitory
I don’t know if this is true or not. Anyway, since 2005, several machine tools capable of grinding knives at HKUST have been sealed in the central area.
However, with Xu Yun's current status, it is not difficult to make a gadget.
Four days later.
The fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
Early in the morning.
Xu Yun and his company assistant Tang Li came to HKUST to meet Tian Liangwei and another middle-aged man in his early forties.
"Xiao Xu, let me introduce you."
Tian Liangwei patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder with a smile, and said to Xu Yun:
"This is Researcher Chen Yunji Chen, currently a researcher at the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the founder of the Cambrian Period of the Chinese Academy of Sciences."
Xu Yun was taken aback for a moment, then quickly stretched out his hand:
"Researcher Chen, hello, I'm Xu Yun."
Chen Yunji is a very easy-going middle-aged man, wearing a plaid shirt, with unkempt hair, messy and sticking to his forehead. Hearing this, he smiled and shook hands with Xu Yun:
"Dr. Xu, I have heard your name more than once. When I saw you today, you are indeed a young talent."
As the saying goes.
Each sedan chair is carried by everyone.
Seeing that the other party was so polite, Xu Yun also replied some polite words such as long-heard public names.
Wait for the two to finish their greetings.
Tian Liangwei coughed lightly, raised his eyelids to look at Xu Yun, and continued:
"Xiao Xu, Professor Chen and Dr. Lu Xiao are both the proud students of Academician Chen Guoliang, and they can be regarded as brothers from the same school."
"It's just that Mr. Chen is old now and it's not convenient for him to move around, so he asked Professor Chen to come forward to meet Dr. Lu Xiao on his behalf."
Xu Yun finally understood.
So that’s what happened.
He was wondering just now.
Today is the day when Lu Xiao returned to China from across the sea, so he arrived at HKUST early in the morning, preparing to pick up people at Xinqiao Airport with Tian Liangwei.
It turned out that Chen Yunji suddenly appeared, and he almost misunderstood that Lu Xiao was about to be cut off.
After all, Chen Yunji's name is quite famous in HKUST or in the computer industry across the country.
He was admitted to the junior class of the University of Science and Technology at the age of 14, and entered the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences at the age of 19.
At the age of 24, he graduated with a Ph.D.
Then at the age of 25, he became the main architect of the 8-core Godson-3.
At the age of 33, he founded the Cambrian of Zhongke, which is known as the first AI chip company.
If such a big guy joins Lu Xiao's fight midway, Xu Yun really doesn't have much confidence that he can win against him.
But now, according to Tian Liangwei's hints in his remarks, the other party is just receiving guests on behalf of the teacher, and has no idea of "taking love with a knife".
As Tian Liangwei said.
Chen Yunji and Lu Xiao's teacher is Academician Chen Guoliang. Although this leader in the computer field of the Republic has made great achievements, he is now 85 years old.
It is obviously inappropriate and unrealistic for him to pick up people at the airport like Tian Liangwei and Xu Yun.
Then the few people chatted while walking, and soon came to the parking lot.
There were already two commercial vehicles waiting here. Tian Liangwei greeted the driver, and directly led Xu Yun, Chen Yunji, and Tang Li into the car.
After half a minute.
The engines of two commercial vehicles started and drove out of the gate of HKUST one after another.
The distance from HKUST to Luzhou Xinqiao Airport is nearly 50 kilometers, which is actually quite far.
About an hour later.
Xu Yun and others just arrived outside the airport terminal.
Fortunately, there is only one terminal building at Xinqiao Airport, and T2 is only under planning, not as complicated as Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai.
After being busy for about ten minutes, Xu Yun and his party were put into the pick-up hall.
"Dr. Lu Xiao first transferred from New York to Incheon, and then flew from Incheon to Luzhou. The flight number is"
Tian Liangwei put the phone in front of him, pulled his glasses slightly down the bridge of his nose, and stared at the screen with his naked eyes for a while:
"CACA9515, the arrival time should be 9:55 am."
“CA9515”
Xu Yun looked up at the big screen, and quickly found the corresponding flight:
"CA9515 still has 40 minutes to land. Counting the time to pick up the luggage, it may take more than an hour at the earliest."
Tian Liangwei nodded slightly to express his understanding.
Although Luzhou has developed rapidly these years, the related supporting facilities of Xinqiao Airport are really hard to describe.
Not to mention that it is far from the Luzhou train station, and the prices of the surrounding hotels are not cheap.
What's even more outrageous is that the various operations inside the airport are also quite speechless.
I don’t know if it has inherited the frugal character of the people in southern Anhui. Xinqiao Airport obviously has a row of check-in counters, but there are only three or four check-in counters at a time, and they are still used by a bunch of airlines.
Security check and pick-up links are also blocked, and the luggage is stuck on the security check conveyor belt.
Normally, it takes half an hour to pick up a checked luggage, so you are considered to be possessed by the Emperor of Europe.
As an important part of the world-class airport group in the Yangtze River Delta, Xinqiao Airport is indeed a bit sorry for the word "international" in its name.
as predicted.
After the CA9515 shows landing.
Xu Yun and others waited for more than an hour. Several young people, including Xu Yun, took turns holding up several signs, and then two figures, one big and one small, dragging suitcases slowly appeared at the exit.
The man on the left is about 1.85 meters tall, wearing a silver slim-fit suit, with a strong figure and a square face.
With a beard on his face and a straight nose, he looks quite upright.
The other, smaller figure is a cute little girl of four or five years old.
The little girl is wearing a white dress, with a small red bag hanging from her shoulders, and a green hat on her head.
This pair looks very recognizable, not to mention that Xu Yun and the others have seen Lu Xiao's photo a long time ago.
So the moment the two appeared, Xu Yun recognized each other's identities.
That man is Lu Xiao whom I want to pick up!
But before he had time to speak, Chen Yunji beside him waved his hand excitedly:
"Brother! Brother! Here!"
The man in the distance was still looking for the pick-up card, but he immediately locked his position when he heard this, and his eyes lit up when he saw Chen Yunji.
He and the little girl whispered a few times, then walked quickly towards the area where everyone was.
When it was only five or six meters away from Xu Yun and others.
Lu Xiao left the suitcase and the little **** the spot without hesitation, rushed to Chen Yunji's side, and patted him on the shoulder heavily:
"Long time no see, Junior Brother Chen."
The little **** the side glanced at her empty left hand, then at the suitcase beside her, a question mark appeared in her eyes:
Rake rake?
But soon.
The man thought of the little loli who was a few meters away, returned to hold her hand, and dragged the suitcase to Chen Yunji's side.
After the two senior brothers exchanged greetings.
Chen Yunji took the initiative to step aside, and gave Tian Liangwei and Xu Yun the front, introducing:
"Brother, let me introduce to you, this is Tian Liangwei, an academician of the Huaxia Academy of Engineering, currently the dean of the School of Life Medicine of the University of Science and Technology, and one of the executive directors of Huadun Biotechnology."
"The person next to him is Xu Yun, Dr. Xu, the immortal chairman of Huadun Biotechnology."
"Dean Tian, Dr. Xu, this is my senior brother, Lu Xiao."
Wait for Chen Yunji to finish his introduction.
Lu Xiao's face was brimming with enthusiasm, she stretched out her hand, and said politely:
"Dean Tian, Dr. Xu, I have known you for a long time."
The other party's posture was very low, Tian Liangwei and Xu Yun naturally would not put on airs, and shook hands with him politely:
"Welcome home, Dr. Lu."
Although Lu Xiao's entry into Huadun Biotechnology is a 'deal' led by HKUST, both parties need to get used to it, and there is still a long way to go.
From the current point of view, the attitudes of both parties should be relatively positive.
Then Lu Xiao touched the head of the little girl next to her, with a hint of kindness in her eyes:
"As for this... She is my daughter, Lu Wenjia, five years old this year, and her English name is Nico."
Xu Yun and Tian Liangwei also greeted Lu Wenjia with a smile.
University of Science and Technology communicated relevant information long before Lu Xiao arrived, and knew that Lu Xiao only brought his daughter with him when he returned to China this time. Unlike the results in scientific research, Lu Xiao's marriage is relatively complicated.
Now 43-year-old Lu Xiao is busy with her career, and she just got married when she was approaching forty. She is a typical middle-aged girl.
After marriage, due to emotional reasons, he and his wife went through divorce procedures last year, and at the same time took the initiative to take custody of their daughter.
At present, Lu Xiao's wife is also working as an executive in a domestic company, but the location is far away in Pengcheng, thousands of kilometers away from Luzhou.
Xu Yun is not very good at commenting on this kind of emotional issue between husband and wife. It can only be said that each family has its own hard-to-read scriptures.
Lu Wenjia's tutor is obviously very good. After Lu Xiao finished speaking, she greeted sweetly, and also brought everyone's surnames in the greeting:
"Hello Grandpa Tian, Uncle Chen, Uncle Xu Xu."
Xu Yun's mouth twitched:
“.?”
Uncle?
I'm so young
Then everyone chatted for a while, and made some polite remarks such as "Have you eaten yet" and "Have you eaten on the plane".
Then Tian Liangwei called the two young men who accompanied him to take the suitcase and walked towards the parking lot.
At this time.
The two commercial vehicles prepared by the University of Science and Technology and the assistant Tang Li are useful—two entourages with suitcases, Tang Li and Lu Wenjia sit in one of the cars, and Xu Yun and others sit in the other car.
While you can talk about things, it is not crowded at all.
Woo da da—
After everyone sat down, the commercial vehicle quickly started.
After departure.
Tian Liangwei in the car handed a bottle of mineral water to Lu Xiao, and said meaningfully:
"Little Lu, can you breathe a sigh of relief?"
At this time, all the people in the car were his own people, so Lu Xiao was not so defensive when he spoke. He took the mineral water and took a big gulp.
Then wiped the corner of his mouth, and said with emotion:
"Yeah, finally came back alive."
"Academician Tian, to tell you the truth, after agreeing to HKUST's 'deal' plan, I didn't sleep well all night, and I was deeply afraid that something would happen at any time."
Hear this statement.
The faces of Xu Yun and Chen Yunji beside him also showed a trace of heaviness.
Lu Xiao's remarks are not persecution paranoia, but concerns with precedents.
In the past few decades, I don’t know how many well-known Chinese scientists unfortunately died in other countries on the eve of returning to China.
The most famous one is Mr. Zhang Shousheng.
1978.
China resumed the college entrance examination. Mr. Zhang Shousheng, who was only 15 years old, signed up for the exam just after graduating from junior high school, and was directly admitted to Fudan University.
In 1980, after studying Fudan University for two years.
Zhang Shousheng went overseas to study.
After several twists and turns, he joined his mentor Yang Lao to do research on high-energy physics.
Wait until 2017.
Mr. Zhang Shoucheng is already a tenured professor in the Department of Physics, Electronic Engineering and Applied Physics of Stanford University. He has been doing research in topological insulators, quantum spin Hall effect, spintronics, high-temperature superconductivity and other fields.
The quantum spin Hall effect proposed by the research team led by him in 2006 was rated as one of the "Top Ten Important Scientific Breakthroughs in the World" by Science in 2007.
He was also known as "the first Chinese scientist most likely to win the Nobel Prize".
April 2017.
Mr. Yu of Huawei personally drove Zhang Shousheng away. This was also the first public contact between the two parties.
September 18.
Zhang Shousheng won the European Physics Prize, and his team's achievements in increasing the spin Hall effect are recognized as bringing about changes in the world's chips.
On November 28, 2018, his team just announced that it had made a breakthrough in 5G chips.
11/30/18.
Ms. Huawei Meng and Zhang Shousheng attended a dinner together in Argentina.
The day after the dinner, Zhang Shousheng "jumped off the building" to his death.
On the same day, Ms. Meng was arrested.
Followed by 12/3/18.
The world's most advanced lithography machine manufacturer, the Dutch ASML company, caught fire, and the EUV lithography machine ordered by Huaxia for US$120 million was destroyed.
A few more days passed.
Mr. Zhang Shoucheng's cause of death was determined to be a closed case of Yuyu disease, and the case was closed hastily.
Another well-known one is Mr. Ren Wei.
Ren Wei was born in 1982 and is a native of Qiannan. He won the first place in the city-level Math Olympiad competition in Shanghai when he was 5 years old.
1997.
Ren Wei is 15 years old and was admitted to three Ivy League universities at the same time.
Because of his talent in mathematics and the guidance of famous teachers, Ren Wei published more than a dozen papers in authoritative international journals during his PhD.
The unique algorithm he developed in the field of computer has a great prospect of application in the military field.
Early November 2008.
Ren Wei expressed that he would return to China to work and had bought a ticket.
The 16th of the same month.
Ren Wei's body was found next to the Rockefeller Auditorium, the tallest building in the school.
In addition to Ren Wei and Mr. Zhang Shoucheng, there are too many related examples.
For example, at 8:40 on April 21, 2019.
A series of KB attacks occurred in 6 hotels including the Kingsbury Hotel in Sri Lanka, causing heavy casualties.
It is quite 'accidentally' yes.
At that time, Li Jian and Pan Wenliang, senior engineers of the Institute of Oceanography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Li Dawei, an assistant researcher at the First Institute of Oceanography of the Ministry of Natural Resources, and Wang Liwei, a doctoral student, unfortunately died in the incident.
The death of these experts almost brought two major marine scientific research missions in the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea to a standstill.
Puzzling yes.
The NTJ responsible for this incident is just a newly emerging, unknown radical organization.
However, how it was able to organize such a large-scale KB attack carefully, and where the large amount of funds and arms it needed came from, are still unsolved mysteries.
Until November 26, 2022.
The Chinese scientists who died and made public across the sea are:
Ren Wei, Xiao Xiang, Zhao Yongfang, Zhang Shoucheng, Liu Bing, Wang Peidong, Chen Zhijun, Cheng Zhihong, Li Ying, Li Yuchong and three other characters who are too sensitive to write.
They, without exception, all died on the eve of returning home.
Lucky for me these days.
Relying on some exchange of benefits, Lu Xiao smoothly returned to the embrace of the motherland.
Think here.
Xu Yun couldn't help sighing, and stretched out his hand again:
"Dr. Lu, welcome home."
The same four words.
It is said in different contexts before and after, but the meaning is completely different
