In 1978, I was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 17 If you don't follow me who has projects and money, am I going to play paper talk with you?
"Look at you, department heads and professors from a major university, fighting in the street! What the hell!"

Looking at Du Guowang and Liang Hongbin with bruised faces and noses, Li Rui was furious.

"Boss, we're not in the street. We're in the cafeteria lobby..."

Du Guowang argued in a low voice.

"Bang~"

Hearing this explanation, Li Rui, who was already angry, stood up suddenly and slapped his desk hard.

He glared at Du Guowang and said, "You still have the nerve? You are the dean of the department after all. Don't you think it's embarrassing for yourself or the school?"

"..."

Du Guowang was so embarrassed that he dared not say a word.

"Tell me, why did the fight start?"

Li Rui was helpless facing the rogue Du Guowang.

He couldn't understand why these two brothers-in-law, who usually didn't get along well with each other, started fighting in the cafeteria?

"He stole my students!"

"Du Guowang, stop slandering me and defaming my innocence! Xie Wei hasn't even registered yet, so how can he be your student? As long as he's willing..."

"I don't give a shit about that! If you hadn't gotten him drunk..."

"Bang~"

Seeing that the two of them were arguing again and were about to engage in a fight over a single word, Li Rui had no choice but to slam the table once again.

"President, you have to make the decision for me! I brought Xie Wei back from Chengdu, and you just approved 200,000 yuan in funding. But when I got back, I saw Liang Hongbin forcing Xie Wei, who was drunk by him, to sign the application for transfer..."

Du Guowang didn't care whether Li Rui slammed the table or not, he just started complaining.

He even ignored his promise to lock his mouth with stainless steel screws before leaving.

No one can take away your students.

Even my uncle can’t do that!

"What? Leader, you approved 5000 yuan for him? No, you didn't even approve my request of yuan..."

Liang Hongbin caught the 200,000 yuan mentioned by Du Guowang and immediately became unhappy.

He didn't even bother to snatch Xie Wei.

Li Rui glared at Du Guowang, pressed his swollen temples hard, and said to Liang Hongbin with a dark face: "Be serious, we are talking about fighting now!"

After hearing this, Liang Hongbin did not dwell on the funding issue.

Got it, can you run away?

He directly took out the exercises that Xie Wei had done in the morning from his briefcase, turned to the last question and handed it to Li Rui.

"Principal, this is the test paper that Professor Qian gave me when I graduated. I was stumped on two of them. I used the square and multiply by 10, and I failed almost half of them. In the end, we took half a year to make up for the math and did more than 3000 difficult math problems before Professor Qian let us graduate... Xie Wei only took 40 minutes to solve that problem..."

Li Rui didn't answer and looked at Liang Hongbin with a frown.

He didn't quite believe what Liang Hongbin said.

Mr. Qian’s first batch of students studied for several years but were unable to accomplish the task. Xie Wei only graduated from junior high school and has been working for five years. Even if he had been studying on his own for these five years, could he compare with Mr. Qian’s personal teaching?

"Principal, this was done by Xie Wei this morning. His knowledge is much better than the graduate students we recruited... Especially the Hall engine at the back. If it is developed, it will be directly related to the trajectory change of strategic intercontinental missiles in space..."

Liang Hongbin's words shocked Li Rui, who himself did not understand technology.

The ballistic missile changes its trajectory!

This is a technology that neither the United States nor the Soviet Union has mastered. If they were to develop it, no matter how powerful the interception technology is, it would be useless.

If the Ministry knew about this...

Li Rui does not have advanced professional knowledge, but he can sit in the position of president of Harbin Institute of Technology, which shows that he has good vision.

I took the test papers with a serious face, and saw that they were filled with various symbols and formulas. My already swollen head hurt even more.

can't read!
I can't understand it at all.

"Principal, we are part of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, which is engaged in rocket research. Rocket and satellite attitude control are the most difficult cutting-edge technologies to learn, and they require a high level of basic knowledge. There were only three graduate students in the first high-energy physics class, and they were selected from the short ones..."

"Principal, don't listen to his nonsense. Even the United States and the Soviet Union couldn't come up with it. How can we come up with it so quickly without the foundation and money?"

Du Guowang was anxious. Who among the people from Harbin Institute of Technology didn't know what the Ministry thought of Harbin Institute of Technology?
This has become a concern for everyone.

"We still have to start with the basics. Once we have improved our basic technology and have money, it won't be too late to do these things!"

After saying that, regardless of Li Rui's reaction, he turned his head and glared at Liang Hongbin: "Brother-in-law, you don't even have a foundation, and you're building a castle in the air. It will collapse sooner or later!"

"Besides, if he enters my mechanical department, he can directly join the project team. What can he do by following you? Just talk about it on paper?"

"That's enough! Shut up!"

Li Rui interrupted Du Guowang with a dark face.

What happened to your promise to keep your mouth shut?

Being glared at by Li Rui, Du Guowang also realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.

"Give me a detailed introduction to Xie Wei's situation..."

······
"Teacher Liang, aren't you worried about your relationship with Director Du?"

Wang Zheng looked at Liang Hongling helplessly.

Du Guowang had a fight with Liang Hongbin and was sent to the principal's office by the police station.

However, Liang Hongling asked Wang Zheng, who had arrived after hearing the news, to help send Xie Wei back home. After Wang Zheng had settled Xie Wei, Liang Hongling sent him away.

"Why worry? Liang Hongling can live without a husband, but the Department of Mathematics at Harbin Institute of Technology cannot live without a genius! He doesn't have to wait four years to graduate from university, and can go to the Institute of Mathematics to study with my teacher. Mathematics is the foundation of all science and engineering disciplines. Only by studying mathematics can he make greater contributions to the modernization of the country."

Liang Hongling looked at Xie Wei with gentle eyes as he lay on the bed, restlessly, turning over, clamping the quilt with one leg, and snoring on the bed.

"..."

Wang Zheng couldn't respond to this.

Who knows, by then Director Du might have lost both his students and his wife...

"Xiao Wang, there is nothing for you to do here, go back and do your own thing!"

"Teacher Liang, Director Du has told me that I can't leave until he comes back..."

Wang Zheng really wanted to tell Liang Hongling that he wanted to leave too.

However, Director Du had a fight and went to the principal to accept criticism, asking him to stay with Xie Wei and prevent Liang Hongling from signing the transfer application while Xie Wei was drunk.

"Then you just stay here!"

Liang Hongling glanced at Wang Zheng with contempt, "Take care of him, don't bother me."

After saying that, he left Xie Wei's room.

On Xie Wei's answer sheet, a solution to a multi-complex function problem gave Liang Hongling inspiration for solving a difficult problem that had troubled her for months. If Liang Hongbin hadn't added a lot of high-energy physics-related problems to the advanced math problems he gave Xie Wei, she would have already demonstrated it.

"You are busy first!"

Wang Zheng couldn't wait for Liang Hongling to leave.

I can't afford to offend Director Du, and I can't afford to offend the woman that even Director Du can't afford to offend.

Looking at Xie Wei sleeping soundly with his legs between the quilts, Wang Zheng shook his head and sighed silently. Ever since Xie Wei's name appeared in Harbin Institute of Technology, it seemed that his work had deviated...

When Du Guowang returned home, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening.

The light was on in Xie Wei's room.

"Xie Wei hasn't woken up yet?"

The first thing Du Guowang did was to enter Xie Wei's room and see Wang Zheng boredly flipping through the "Calculus Tutorial" on the desk. He flipped through the pages very quickly, and several books were placed messily on the table.

"I was sleeping the whole time! I got up twice to drink some water, then fell asleep again."

Wang Zheng hurriedly explained the situation and assured Director Du that during the entire process, no one took the opportunity to ask Xie Wei to sign the application for transfer.

Du Guowang breathed a sigh of relief, "It's getting late, you go back first, I'll stay with him."

"..."

Is it necessary to watch at night?

There wouldn't be any department head so bored as to steal Xie Wei away at night.
