Sail across the sea

Chapter 117
"What's that saying? Science knows no borders."

Gao Fan said subconsciously.

The conscience of heaven and earth, this is really not Gao Fan's own idea, but a conditioned reflex formed by his arguing with others on the Internet in later generations.

It doesn't matter whether you are justified or not, as long as you can give one more reason than your opponent, you can proudly declare victory.The ether space is full of glass hearts choked to death by fallacies.

"But scientists have national boundaries." Xia Shihui retorted without hesitation.

"No way, student Xia, you don't say this often, do you?"

Gao Fan was surprised, the opponent was so straightforward, he didn't look like a novice.Could it be that they are also a time-traveling crowd, maybe they were fans of each other in the previous life.

Xia Shihui said: "This is what my dad and the others often say."

"What does your father do?"

"Mine prospector, didn't I tell you?"

"Uh, uh, I did." Gao Fan remembered, this girl also said that she followed her parents to look for mines in the mountains since she was a child, and she developed a pair of scud legs, and it is said that she can catch snakes and cook snake soup to eat.

"But what does prospecting have to do with whether scientists have national boundaries?" Gao Fan questioned angrily.

Xia Shihui said: "It has a lot to do with it. Did you know that Mr. Pan was the first to put forward the theory of continental oil generation in the world, because he had a strong desire to get rid of the label of 'China's poor oil'.

"My dad often used this example to tell us children. They also said that the country needed a kind of mine back then. According to geological theory, it was impossible to have that kind of mine in the granite area. But the country needed it, so they tried their best to find it. , and finally found that kind of mine in the granite area.”

"What mine are you talking about?" Gao Fan asked.

Xia Shihui rolled his eyes at him and said, "This is confidential, I can't tell you."

"Oh, then I understand." Gao Fan nodded.

It seems that there are not many mines that can be included in the scope of confidentiality.Thinking of some stories revealed by later generations, Gao Fan can guess it.

There are quite a few stories of facing difficulties that were left behind back then. Many times, they knew that there was only 1% hope, and they would put in 100% effort.

The example of continental oil generation is actually quite typical.When foreigners look for oil in China, they will come to the conclusion that China is poor in oil, because they are not interested in whether they can find oil in China.

Only China's own geologists will devote themselves to studying whether continental strata can generate oil, but if there is any hope, they will continue to study unremittingly until they finally discover a large oil field in continental strata.

In this sense, scientists do have national boundaries, and their own scientists are completely different from those of others.

"However, if my classmate stays in China, it is impossible to have the opportunity to study this project. What do you think?" Gao Fan asked.

He asked this question for himself rather than for Wu Zixian.There are many ideas in my mind, but I am constrained by conditions and cannot implement them. It is really aggrieved.

Xia Shihui was stopped by Gao Fan's question. After a long pause, she sighed and said, "There is really no good way to do this. In fact, I also know that many people from our school go abroad, some students, some teacher.

"Some of the reasons why they go abroad are because they feel that the living conditions in foreign countries are good and they don't want to stay in China. There are also some, as you mentioned, who are talented but have no conditions to do scientific research in China, so they can only go abroad. go."

Gao Fan said with emotion: "It's really a pity. We selected the best talents from all over the country, spent so much energy on training them, and then they all went abroad."

"There is one person in my dad's unit who went to study abroad, and then stayed abroad and never came back." Xia Shihui said, "When my dad talked about him, he felt very sorry, saying that he was quite talented."

"Oh, this is the initial stage."

"What primary stage?"

"It's nothing, I'm talking nonsense." Gao Fan quickly covered it up.The concept of the primary stage will not be brought up until a few years later. He said now that it is indeed too early.

Xia Shihui didn't pay attention to it. In her mind, Gao Fan might just complain casually.She said:

"Gao Fan, to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish I could learn the magic of turning stones into gold, make a lot of money, and create a particularly good scientific research condition for all those talented people, so that they can An An stayed at home to do research with peace of mind.

"Hey, why are you looking at me like this? Don't you want to say that I'm too naive?"

Xia Shihui protested dissatisfied, because she found that Gao Fan was staring straight at her, with a strange light in his eyes.

"No, no, how can you be naive, your idea is very good, very good." Gao Fan said repeatedly.

"What do you think?" Xia Shihui forgot what she said instead.

Gao Fan said: "Didn't you say that you want to turn stone into gold and make a lot of money?"

"Why, do you think I can't do it?" Xia Shihui said, "I'm a geologist, maybe I can find a big gold mine in the crevice of the stone one day, isn't that the touchstone to gold?"

"Haha, I believe, I believe." Gao Fan replied with a smile.

"Hmph, I know you don't believe me. I'll ignore you!" Xia Shihui took Gao Fan's words as a mockery, she glared at Gao Fan and asked, "Hey, Gao Fan, you don't plan to jump into the lake, do you? If you don't Now, I'm going to the library."

"I won't dance anymore, I really won't dance this time." Gao Fan said with a smile.

Now his heart is clear, so he has no idea of ​​jumping into the lake.Even if I want to jump, I want to splash in the water and release my inner joy.

"Ha, so you really wanted to dance just now!" Xia Shihui said as if she had discovered a new world.

"Only a little thought."

"what about now?"

"Now there is nothing left, and I find that it is better to live than to die."

"Why did you suddenly change?"

"Because I suddenly found my purpose in life."

"life goals?"

Xia Shihui looked at Gao Fan suspiciously, opened her mouth, and finally didn't have the nerve to ask out her conjecture.

You don't want to chase me, do you?

Gao Fan didn't know that the little girl would think wrongly, he replied with a smile: "Yes, it is the goal of life. What you said just now is so good, I have decided to learn the spell of turning stone into gold and conjuring With a lot of money, everyone who wants to do scientific research can stay in the country with peace of mind."

"You are really hopeless!"

Xia Shihui firmly believed that Gao Fan was laughing at her, so she said angrily, turned around and left.

"Don't be angry, what I said is true. By the way, let me treat you to dinner tonight, braised chicken nuggets from the internship restaurant!" Gao Fan shouted from behind.

"I'm already fed up with you, you can save the braised chicken nuggets for yourself!"

Xia Shihui's voice floated over from a distance, and the person had disappeared.

　I said Miss Xia is not actually the heroine I designed, do you believe it?Just like girl Shen back then...
