Rebirth of America: The American Drama System

California Institute of Technology.

Welcome party.

"Professor Li, welcome to Caltech."

Eric Gablehouse, chairman of the physics department at Caltech, came over and greeted warmly: "Wow! Nice suit!"

Mathematics and science are not separated. Many outstanding physicists are also top mathematicians. Although Sheldon is a theoretical physicist, he often overwhelms Leonard. What impresses him is his mathematical calculation ability.

Mathematicians can provide the most favorable support for physics research, but not all physicists have super mathematical calculation abilities.

Just like Leonard discovered a physics theory in a flash of inspiration, without Sheldon's super mathematical calculations, either the paper would not have been completed at all, or it would have been published first by others because of too long delays.

Even though he was the one who thought of it first, but because he was slow, someone else got there first. This kind of pain is very torturous. A person may only have this one shining inspiration in his life. If he loses it, he will never have it again. , this kind of tragedy is not uncommon in the history of science.

Therefore, Fields Medal winners like Irving are still very popular among doctors and professors in the physics department.

"Thank you, Dr. Gablehouse."

Irving tightened his grip on the custom-made suit worth 20,000 US dollars given by New York Suit Addicts, and thought to himself: "You get what you pay for."

"Dr. Gablehouse."

"Dr. Hofstadter."

"Dr. Gablehouse."

"Dr. Kusrapalli."

"Dr. Gablehouse."

"Dr. Cooper."

"Dr. Gablehouse."

"Mr. Wonovitz."

After a series of epithets for doctor, it ended with Mr. Howard Wonovitz hanging his head in shame.

"So, Professor Li, do you know the doctors and Mr. Wonovitz?"

Dr. Gablehouse glanced at everyone. He had just taken over and knew very little about everyone. If Sheldon hadn't been known throughout Caltech as a "freak with a beautiful heart", he might not have even known them. None of them knew Sheldon.

A university is a miniature society. Because Caltech is a truly elite institution, it is not large, with only about 2,000 students, of which only about 1,000 are undergraduates. However, the school employs many professors with assistant professors and above. A terrifying 300 people.

The Department of Physics is the top major at Caltech, ranking first in the world all year round, so it has the strongest faculty. As the newly appointed chair of the Department of Physics, it is still difficult to recognize everyone.

"Yes."

Irving nodded and said with a smile: "We are all good friends. I have to say that a large part of the reason why I chose Caltech was because of them."

"Wow! Then they are really the heroes of the school."

Dr. Gablehouse said humorously.

"excuse me!"

Sheldon had been suppressing his dissatisfaction. When he heard that Gablehouse defined them as heroes because of this, his eyes suddenly bulged. He glared at Gablehouse and said, "The reason why I am a hero of the school is because I am a hero in the school." The outstanding achievements in string theory are not because Irving is my friend, nor is it because I am incapable of doing original research and publishing a series of best-selling books!"

"What did you say?"

Gablehouse looked confused. He had never met someone like Sheldon. Although he understood every word and sentence Sheldon said, he still couldn't believe that someone dared to attack him like this. !

The key is that this person is still his subordinate, he is the big boss of the physics department!

"You heard me."

Sheldon bulged his eyes and said: "Reducing the great concepts of science to a series of anecdotes, each story simple enough to be read in one bowel movement, is your greatest contribution to the scientific community. how do you feel?"

"Shut up! Sheldon!"

Leonard's eyes nearly rolled out of his head. Seeing that Sheldon was going too far, he quickly scolded him, then smiled at Gablehouse and said, "Dr. Gablehouse, Sheldon didn't mean it. …”

"I can't believe my ears!"

Dr. Gablehouse finally came to his senses and gritted his teeth: "Some people on the school board said you have a beautiful heart, but to me, you are nothing. You are fired!"

"Sheldon, apologize to Dr. Gablehouse."

Owen advised.

"Why?"

Sheldon held his head high in disbelief.

"Because your favorite Professor Hawking does the same thing."

Owen said: "'A Brief History of Time', 'The Universe in a Nutshell', and 'The Origin of the Universe' can teach profound scientific theories to others in the most accessible form. This is a very great work. Something!"

"yes!"

Leonard echoed: "Sheldon, think about it, there are many people like us who finally embarked on the path of science because of Professor Proton's popular science program. Do you also want to question Professor Proton's contribution?"

Sheldon stood there, speechless, and his cheeks began to twitch unnaturally.

"ok, ok!"

After Owen's mediation, Dr. Gablehouse's face became much better. Seeing Sheldon's expression of wanting to cry, he smiled to himself: "What do I care about with a giant baby?"

But this does not mean that he will graciously write off the offense just now. He is the newly appointed chairman of the physics department, and his due authority still needs to be maintained.

"Sheldon, you are temporarily suspended without pay. Go back and have a good rest. When you read my book and your intestines are not moving smoothly, we can talk again."

After this farce, the atmosphere of the welcome party was much worse. After it was over, everyone returned to the TBBT apartment.

Room 4A.

Sheldon's giant baby Cooper glared at Owen and Leonard fiercely, and then rushed into the bedroom aggrievedly. After a while, soft sobs could be heard faintly.

"So, why didn't Jamie come?"

Leonard had long been accustomed to Sheldon, and he didn't care and asked the question he was most concerned about.

"She was feeling a little unwell and stayed in the apartment to rest."

Owen laughed.

"Is it skin pain?"

Howard smiled obscenely and said: "You know, the common symptoms of friction for too long..."

"You know it very well."

Owen smiled noncommittally.

"Believe me!"

Howard said sadly: "I am an expert in this field!"

"hehe."

Owen nodded secretly. Howard did understand very well, but he didn't want to go into details. Seeing Leonard's disappointed look, his heart moved and he smiled and said, "So, Leonard, why didn't I meet you to ask Penny out?"

"Why should I ask Penny out?"

Leonard said with a sneer.

"Because there is a special connection between you."

Owen said casually: "And I heard from you that Penny is breaking up with her boyfriend of four years. This should be your best chance."

"Really?"

Leonard's eyes lit up, but he hesitated unconfidently.

"Believe me!"

Owen smiled confidently: "I am a professional in this area. Penny looks like the kind of girl with special healing methods. Whoever takes the initiative at this time will be very lucky!"

"Special healing method?"

Rajesh and the three of them shouted in unison.

"Yes."

Owen's lips curled up: "After some girls fall out of love, they will choose a handsome guy and then undergo 36 consecutive hours of meaningless special rehabilitation. Of course, the premise is that the lucky dog ​​can hold on!"

"So that's it!"

Leonard suddenly said: "No wonder that handsome guy's name is Doug..."
