Chapter 16-Hot
"Who rejected Xu Changqing's application for subsidies?”
Thinking of this, Peter's mood was extremely bad. He asked in a deep voice.
"It's Rhode Kiles, who is in charge of reviewing applications.”
Another board member replied. He paused and looked at Peter's expression before adding,"I fired him yesterday and informed the other universities to never hire him again.”
Everyone could see that Peter was in a bad mood and wanted to find someone to vent his anger on. But in fact, it wasn't the fault of that unlucky guy named Rhode. No one would think that the research of the gene serum was successful. It could only be said that the school's higher-ups didn't pay enough attention to it.
"Instead of looking for responsibility here, why don't you think about how to salvage the situation? Try your best to salvage this matter. Even if you can't get a share of the benefits from the X gene, you have to salvage the school's impression in Xu Changqing's heart.”
A board member continued.
As soon as he finished speaking, a board member immediately suggested,"I suggest that we jointly fund and give Xu Changqing a large sum of money as a reward and recognition for his contributions and achievements. We will also award him a lifetime honorary professor and an outstanding student degree. What do you think?”
It had to be said that this board member's idea was not bad. Although giving bonuses and honors now was a bit of a hindsight, as long as they were sincere, they could still restore the school's reputation. The best thing was to award Xu Changqing the position of a lifelong honorary professor.
This position was a great honor for ordinary people, but it was nothing for a young scientist who was very likely to win two Nobel Prizes. However, it was enough to deepen the relationship between the school and Xu Changqing.
As soon as he said this, the other board members agreed one after another and then handed it over to Principal Peter to handle this matter.
………
The craze caused by the X gene serum had not subsided. Famous newspapers from all over the world sent reporters to New Haven City to interview Xu Changqing.
However, the reporters from every newspaper returned empty-handed because Xu Changqing did not accept any interviews from any newspaper at all. He was not interested in it at all.
As for the cooperation of the X gene serum, he had Tachibana Huiyi cooperate with large pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer, which were among the world's top 500 companies. They would only collect a portion of the patent fees and refused all cooperation and investment from other companies.
Xu Changqing's low-profile made many people interested in him. Everyone was guessing what kind of person this young but amazing scientist was.
While the outside world was discussing and speculating about Xu Changqing, he was in his own research lab sorting out the 5% singularity data into a thesis.
Singularity data was just a name. The files contained in it were extremely huge. One had to know that Xu Changqing's USB drive was 10 tons in size. Even so, it was still filled with three USB drives, which showed how huge the data was.
Xu Changqing had to filter out 5% of the huge data and edit it into a thesis. How could it not be troublesome? Even with the help of the system, he was still busy for several days.
In the research room, Tachibana Huiyi walked in and placed the food on the empty table at the side. Then, she said to Li Changqing,"Senior, don't be busy. Let's eat.”
"Yes."
Xu Changqing nodded, then put down the things in his hands and came over to eat. Tachibana Emi was lying on the side and watching him eat with a smile.
Xu Changqing was already used to this. He realized that he was over-reliant on Tachibana Emi. He usually did not care about anything other than research. He relied on Tachibana Emi to eat, wash clothes, and tidy up the research room.
Tachibana Ayumi was the only person in the world who would receive such treatment from the heir of a tycoon in Country R.
He had thought about getting an assistant to do these things, but Tachibana Emi did not agree to it, and she was happy to do it. Secondly, the various materials in the research lab were extremely precious, so he did not feel at ease handing them over to his assistant.
In his previous life, he had experienced his research results being stolen by his assistant, so he had to be wary of this.
"Senior, what are you busy with now? Isn't the X gene research completed?”
While Xu Changqing was eating, Tachibana Huiyi came to his computer and looked at it for a while. She realized that she could not understand the contents at all and could not help but ask in confusion.
" The X gene isn't much. This is more important. It's related to the theory of the universe's singularity and space-time curvature…Forget it, you don't understand. You'll know after some time.”
Xu Changqing was just about to explain, but after seeing Tachibana Emi's confused expression, he gave up on the idea and just brushed it off.
In any case, these theses would cause a worldwide sensation again in a while. Tachibana Huiyi would naturally know about it then.
Tachibana Emi stuck out her tongue and did not continue to ask. In fact, she did not understand either, but she liked Xu Changqing's serious look.
Xu Changqing quickly finished eating. Tachibana Huiyi went up to clean up the dishes. Just as she was about to leave, she remembered something and said,"By the way, senior, the school asked me to contact you. They want to meet you and apologize for rejecting your project funding application.”
"The board of directors has specially approved a five-million-dollar bonus for you. They will also award you with the title of honorary professor and outstanding student.”
Xu Changqing's expression did not change after Tachibana Huiyi finished speaking. He said expressionlessly,""It's so boring. Don't bother with them, they're wasting my time.”
How could he not know what the board of directors was thinking? She only saw his value.
"Alright, I'll return the five million yuan later.”
Tachibana Emi nodded. She was only helping to pass on the message. As for whether Xu Changqing would meet her or not, it was not something she could control.
"Why should we retreat?"
Xu Changqing raised his eyebrows and asked," Are you stupid? Why don't you take the money?"”
Tachibana Emi was stunned for a moment before she burst into laughter. Her beautiful face was full of smiles as she picked up the thermos and waved her hand to leave the research lab.
" Got it, senior. Hahaha!"
Looking at Tachibana Huiyi's figure, the corners of Xu Changqing's mouth curled up slightly.
