The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 411 Isn’t this all because of you?

"Just being interested is not enough." Li Mu said
If a girl can get a recommendation from a professor, it at least proves that she has talent and is worth spending time to cultivate.

But these students...

It's not that he looks down on people, he just doesn't want to open this door and let too many people disturb the research of Yang Tianxing and others.

The task of database research and development is extremely heavy, while the experts and professors in steel metallurgy here are still discussing collecting information in a relaxed manner.

They have been staying up for several nights to build the overall framework of the database.

He could agree to it.

But the ones who suffered were Yang Tianxing and others.

"We, we just want a chance." The boy also understood what Li Mu meant, and his tone began to weaken.

Li Mu pondered for a moment, then said:

"I can give you a chance, but it won't be the same as Gao Lan's."

"After all, you should also know that scientific research is something that requires a lot of time and energy, and it cannot stand too much interruption."

"If you want to conduct the test, you need to get a recommendation from at least one software engineering expert who is participating in the academic exchange event."

Instead of refusing outright, he made a request.

But this is enough to make these students happy.

They almost thought that Li Mu would refuse directly.

If that happens, everyone will definitely be devastated.

"Don't worry, Counselor Li. If it's not approved, we will never make trouble and cause you trouble again!" said the leading male student, bowing deeply.

The rest of the students also bowed to express their gratitude.

There was no word from Li Mu nod.

Even if they are college students, it is difficult for them to get the opportunity to directly participate in research.

Seeing this, Li Mu stepped forward and patted several people on the shoulders, saying with a smile:
"Don't feel any pressure. It's okay even if you fail."

"You are still young and will have many opportunities."

"Keep doing your best. I have high hopes for you and hope you can make your own contributions to the country in the future!"

After saying these words of encouragement.

He didn't linger any longer and quickly turned and left.

The students looked at his back, his instructions echoing in their ears, their hearts were filled with emotion and they stayed there for a long time.

……

Came to the cafeteria of Fengtian Institute of Technology.

After finishing the meal.

Li Mu found a seat and sat down.

Upon seeing this, the experts and professors around immediately turned their gazes to look at him.

There were even a few people who were ready to come over and continue the topic they had not finished during the day.

——They got a lot of inspiration from Li Mu, and felt that the inspiration for research was surging like a blowout. They couldn’t wait to discuss it again.

However, after someone saw Li Mu's slightly dazed eyes, he immediately stretched out his hand to signal everyone not to approach, and made a hushing gesture to the people around who were eating and talking.

The sudden silence made everyone feel a little strange.

However, after someone pointed at Li Mu's back, everyone understood and remained silent tacitly.

Even the experts and professors who were so excited that they wanted to stand up and slam the table stopped talking, for fear of affecting that person's thinking.

After all, they believed that even if they spent several months on research and development, it might not be worth a moment of thinking on Li Mu's part.

While everyone remained silent and looked up at Li Mu from time to time.

He finally came to his senses.

After finishing the food in the lunch box in a few bites, he prepared to wash it in the sink.

As he stood up, the surroundings instantly returned to their original noisy state and people began to communicate and discuss again.

"What's going on?" Li Mu was a little dazed, and glanced at the people eating around him with a little confusion.

He didn't notice it just now because he was distracted.

At this moment, the place suddenly went from quiet to noisy, and it was hard not to notice it.

Just when he was puzzled, a person passing by happened to hear what he said, walked over and said with a smile: "Advisor Li, we were afraid of disturbing you just now, so we didn't say anything."

"It's not that serious. I was just stunned for a while. How can I think about research all the time? Professor Lin, you misunderstood!" Li Mu said with a smile.

This is a bit too much of a myth.

Professor Lin waved his hand and said, "It's useless even if you say so. This time I was in a trance. What if next time I'm thinking about research?"

Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, they didn't dare to disturb.

If someone really influenced Li Mu's research.

I'm afraid I'll regret it for the rest of my life.

Li Mu couldn't refute this, and it seemed to make sense.

He said helplessly: "Well, go with you."

It cannot be said that there is no benefit at all to being imagined in this way.

At least he can have peace and quiet when he eats.

"By the way, Professor Lin, what do you think about what I told you before?" Li Mu said.

He had previously invited the other party to stay in Fengtian to conduct research on heavy machinery.

Hearing this, Professor Lin smiled bitterly and said:

"Advisor Li, I really don't know where your confidence in me comes from."

"Your research invitation is indeed very tempting, but I am really worried that I am not qualified for this job."

"I'm very curious, why did you choose me when there are so many experts and professors?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Mu.

In fact, he had already accepted the invitation in his heart.

I just lack confidence in myself and need some affirmation.

Since graduation, he has been engaged in teaching and research for eight or nine years.

Although he has some skills, to be honest, he does not think he is qualified to participate in the research led by Li Mu.

"You have been working in the teaching and research section of the Mechanical Technology Department of Binggong University since you started teaching in 55. You have learned the professional teaching process of forging technology and equipment practice from the experts there. You have rich practical experience, which is exactly what I need now." Li Mu explained.

Of course, there is more to it than that.

Professor Lin’s full name is Lin Su’an. He is one of the founders of Xiaguo’s forging profession and the designer and developer of the national treasure-level equipment “30000-ton die forging hydraulic press”.

Although Li Mu already has the design drawings.

But if we can get their help, the development of the 30000-ton die forging hydraulic press will definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

Seeing that Lin Su'an was still hesitating, Li Mu continued to invite him sincerely: "Professor Lin, I really need you to join me, and I look forward to working with you!"

"Since you said so, how can I refuse?" Lin Su'an was stunned when he heard it, but he no longer hesitated and immediately agreed with a smile.

He didn't know why Li Mu trusted him so much.

But having said that, if he continues to be timid, he will probably look down on himself for the rest of his life.

It’s just a research, he will complete it even at the cost of his life!

Li Mu still didn't know how determined Lin Su'an was to agree to this.

If I knew, I would probably just smile helplessly.

He just wanted to use the boss's ability to complete the development of the 30000-ton die-forging hydraulic press as soon as possible.

……

After saying goodbye to Lin Suan.

Li Mu returned to the Fengtian Aerodynamics Research Institute.

Sitting at the desk in the dormitory, he began to organize his current research plans in the three provinces.

There is no need to worry too much because Yang Tianxing and others are with the iron and steel metallurgy database.

Of course, we still need to keep an eye on him in the early stages to avoid any accidents.

However, once things get on the right track, he will be able to just sit back and do nothing.

The 10,000-ton extruder is similar. With Wang Zhengan as the lead and the information he provided, the current progress is still quite fast.

But it's not without its problems.

Li Mu can solve the big problems, but the minor issues can only be solved by their efforts.

After all, the information is not so detailed that you can produce something just by following it exactly.

"What's left is the J-10 and the 30000-ton die-forging hydraulic press." Li Mu said secretly.

Before he leaves, he must make some preparations.

The research on the J-10 is too difficult and there are many difficulties in launching the project. It is definitely impossible to do it now.

He needed to have the Fengtian Aircraft Manufacturing Plant conduct preliminary research first so that he could produce the J-10 fighter jet as quickly as possible after making all preparations.

"As for the nine major equipment, adding a 30000-ton die forging hydraulic press would be enough." Li Mu thought to himself.

A 30000-ton extrusion press and a -ton forging hydraulic press are both large engineering projects.

Carrying out other large-scale equipment development tasks in Fengtian will undoubtedly increase local pressure and affect people's daily production and life.

And he actually had no intention of taking out all nine devices at once.

After all, one can be explained as a genius, two can be explained as a monster, but three, four, five...

That would be a bit much.

Even though it is unlikely that Li Mu would be suspected now.

But if this happens, Emperor M and Big Brother, who had just calmed down, will probably try to find a way to deal with him again.

They couldn't find Hetu and Tiangong, but it was quite easy to find Li Mu.

The threat posed by a scientist who can take out nine devices at once is definitely no less than that of the mysterious River Map and Tiangong. It would be a great profit if you can get them.

……

Just when Li Mu was thinking about the research plan.

Fengtian Institute of Technology.

In the dormitory arranged by the school for experts and professors who came to participate in academic exchange activities, a group of students were surrounding two professors, discussing issues.

Among these students, Gao Lan was present.

After she left Li Mu today, she did not go to take the test immediately.

After all, it is a matter concerning one's future development, so one must prepare well.

Asking a professor for advice is undoubtedly the best way.

The same is true for other students.

After they left, they immediately found a professor who was studying software engineering at Fengtian Institute of Technology.

However, Professor Wu has only studied software engineering for a few months. In terms of level, although it is not to be said that he has no skills, he believes that he is not as good as Yang Tianxing and others.

So in the end he brought everyone to Professor Xu from Kyoto Wudaokou Institute of Technology. The latter was the one who recommended Gao Lan to introduce herself to Li Mu.

Facing everyone's hopeful gazes, he said helplessly:

"I can only guarantee that Gao Lan will have the opportunity to join in. She has a talent for this."

"As for you, I can't guarantee it."

"Software engineering is not a simple subject. You have not undergone systematic learning, so you can only rely on your talent to make up for it, but this point..."

His words were silent.

But everyone figured it out.

Although it is a bit heartbreaking, it is indeed the reality.

They have not received systematic training in software engineering, and the knowledge they have learned lacks practical verification, so they face many difficulties in passing the test.

"Professor Xu, we still want to give it a try. Even if it fails, we can still apply software engineering to the research and production of steel metallurgy in the future." said the male student who spoke to Li Mu during the day.

After he finished speaking, the others nodded.

Originally, they really wanted to invest in the new academic field of software engineering and make great achievements in it.

But after Li Mu's persuasion during the day, they finally figured it out.

As long as you can contribute to the country, it doesn't matter what you do.

Of course, they would also be happy to be able to join the research project.

"It's good that you think this way. I will give you some remedial lessons in the next few days." Upon seeing this, Professor Xu's expression softened.

He was mainly worried that these ambitious students would not be able to withstand the blow of failure.

Now it seems that he is overthinking.

Professor Wu standing by suddenly stood up, walked to the door and opened the half-open door.

I saw the corridor outside the door was filled with students with longing eyes.

Before Professor Xu could react.

He then shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you thank Professor Xu?"

"Thank you, Professor Xu!" the students immediately shouted in unison.

Such a loud noise soon attracted the attention of the surrounding dormitories.

The experts and professors who had not yet rested came out and saw a group of people gathered here with Professor Xu. Naturally, they were curious and began to ask the people around them.

It wouldn't matter if you didn't ask, but once you did, there was an uproar.

The Fengtian Institute of Computing Technology is planning to develop a steel metallurgical database. Although they don't have particularly detailed information, they still know a little about it.

There are definitely many benefits to being able to participate in a software engineering research project of this scale.

Of course, if Li Mu didn't speak up, these old experts and professors would not take the initiative to volunteer.

But since Gao Lan and other students can go, why can’t their students go?

It is a well-known fact that software engineering plays a huge role in industrial development.

Not to mention the students, even they have to study.

If there is this opportunity, we must definitely strive for it.

……

The next day, early.

After Li Mu woke up, he washed up and exercised, then continued to improve the research plan for the 30000-ton die forging hydraulic press.

He did some yesterday, but only 25% of it, so he needs to speed up a bit.

His plan was to resolve the problems here within half a month and then set off back to Kyoto.

It has been a long time since he left, and he has no idea how the research there is progressing. It is impossible for him to not be worried.

While thinking about this, he finished his breakfast at the institute and then took a bus to Fengtian Institute of Technology.

……

After coming to school.

As soon as he got off the car, Li Mu noticed that something was wrong around him.

However, after looking around for a few times, he couldn't find any problem and didn't have the time to delve into it further.

Because when the experts and professors saw him coming, they rushed in like a tide and drowned him.

It wasn't until noon that he had time to catch his breath.

It was at this moment that he finally discovered what was wrong.

"Why can't I see any young faces today?" he asked curiously to Jin Shu who came up to invite him to the cafeteria for dinner.

In the past few days, apart from the old experts and professors, the playground is filled with energetic faces.

But today, as if by appointment, there was not a single one to be seen, which was really puzzling.

Hearing this, Jin Shu looked strange and said, "Isn't this all because of you?"

"Because of me?" Li Mu was even more puzzled.

Jin Shu explained:
"Didn't you promise that you could let them go to Comrade Yang Tianxing to take the test?"

“And once you pass, you can participate in the research and development of the iron and steel metallurgy database.”

"It's just that I'm old now, otherwise I would have tried it and studied with you."

He even made a little joke at the end.

But Li Mu felt his scalp tingling after hearing this, and he couldn't believe it and asked, "Are they all gone?"

There were at least a thousand students attending the academic exchange meeting. If all of them attended, the scene would be unimaginable.

"Of course not. I am now studying with Professor Xu, Professor He and others from China Europe International Business School. Even if I want to go, the school will make arrangements for it, so it won't affect my research." Jin Shu said with a smile.

Li Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly, "It seems that I can't promise others anything casually in the future. I almost caused a big trouble."

Originally it was just Gao Lan, so there was no problem.

With the addition of a few students coming later, it won’t be a big problem.

But with nearly a thousand students, the problem is huge.

After a moment's silence, he continued:

"Dean Jin, I would like to ask you for a favor. Tell the students that they don't need to go to the Fengtian Institute of Computing Technology."

"I'll ask Yang Tianxing and the others to send some people over to conduct the test."

“As long as you pass the test, you can participate in the research.”

It is definitely impossible to put all the people in the Fengtian Institute of Computing Technology, after all, it is a confidential unit.

"No problem." Jin Shu nodded decisively and agreed.

But after he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment before asking:
"But Consultant Li, there are nearly a thousand students here, and they are all college students. Does the research on the iron and steel metallurgy database require so many people?"

Although the discipline of software engineering is very difficult.

But those who can get into university are all gifted by destiny.

Out of a thousand people, at least one-third can pass the test. Based on this calculation, we need to recruit at least 3 people.

This is twice the number of people at the Fengtian Institute of Computing Technology.

"Numbers are not a problem. I will set more selective questions and keep those talented people for training. Aren't the three provinces in great need of software engineering talents now? They can be used to fill the gap." Li Mu said.

He also knew that a lot of people would be recruited this time.

Even if we select the best from the best, the minimum number is 100. With so many people, there is no problem in temporarily placing them in the steel metallurgical database project team.

But once the research here is completed, it will be difficult for them to play any role.

After all, you are just participating in a research project, and the work you do generally does not involve the core content.

Once Li Mu leaves, the subsequent research and development of the software engineering projects here will immediately come to a standstill, and they will be useless for a considerable period of time.

"It seems that I need to do one or two more research projects." Li Mu thought to himself.

Jin Shu definitely agreed with his proposal and said directly: "Okay, I will apply for a special plan from above."

After saying this, he said goodbye to Li Mu and left in a hurry without even eating.

After all, college students of this era are basically assigned jobs after graduation.

Since it involves the issue of whether so many people stay or go, it must be reported so that things can move forward.

……

In the dining hall.

After Li Mu finished his meal, he took the initiative to find Lin Su'an and other currently well-known scholars in the field of heavy machinery in China.

Saw him coming.

Lin Suan and others who were discussing immediately became quiet, and stood up from their seats to greet Li Mu:

"Hello, Consultant Li."

"Advisor Li, please come and sit over here."

"I just happened to have a question to ask you, do you have time now?"

……

Through these days of communication, each of them was convinced by Li Mu.

Seeing this, Li Mu joked, "Everyone, don't stand up. Sit down. I'm not a leader."

"Hey, this is just a habit. It has become a subconscious reaction for everyone." Lin Su'an explained.

This sentence made everyone burst into laughter.

It’s strange to say, but everyone seems to stand up when they see Li Mu.

If someone doesn't stand, it always feels a bit disrespectful.

Even some old experts and professors have the same idea. If people think they are putting on airs, they will have no way to explain themselves.

But after laughing, everyone's originally awkward mood became much more relaxed.

Li Mu first sat down with his lunch box, and then continued:
"I came here this time mainly to talk to you about the research on the 30000-ton die forging hydraulic press."

"I'm sure everyone is aware of the above document. Breaking through this technology is an important strategic task for our country's industrial development."

"I have discussed a lot of issues with you these days, and I have gained a lot of inspiration from them. I think it is time to show my hand. I would like to ask you, are you interested in participating in this study?"

After he finished speaking, his eyes slowly swept across everyone's face.

But what surprised him was that there was no shock or hesitation on everyone's face, only strong excitement and excitement.

A middle-aged professor said, "Advisor Li, we are waiting for you to say this!"

"Yes, if we talk about who in China can make a 30000-ton die-forging hydraulic press, it must be you," another veteran expert followed.

Other experts and professors also echoed the comments, their faces filled with uncontrollable excitement and excitement.

They were actually aware of the news that the development of the 10,000-ton extruder had begun.

However, there were many gaps between the former and their research direction, and there was no way for them to join.

And even if they join, the different research directions will make the role they can play very limited.

Therefore, we can only continue to research the 30000-ton die forging hydraulic press with all our efforts.
