When Fang Hanmin appeared at the meeting group's registration with fatigue from the journey, several young people were receiving the attendees who arrived one after another. There was also a staff member wearing glasses, with a thin face, a little gray hair, and nearly sixty years old, casually looking through the information form of the attendees who had already completed the registration procedures.

According to the staff's request, Fang Hanmin put the filled-in form on the table and waited for the meeting group to arrange the room number for the hotel. The older staff member picked up the form and looked at it and asked in surprise: "Are you Comrade Fang Hanmin from Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory?"

Suddenly, Fang Hanmin was also surprised when he heard someone questioning, "Yes, I am Fang Hanmin from Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory. Are you..."

"Comrade Fang Hanmin, welcome you to attend our meeting! I am Lao Xu from Pharmaceutical Technology Magazine. We have passed several letters and made several calls. I am here to welcome your arrival."

Fang Hanmin immediately put down his carry-on luggage, stretched out his hands, and stepped forward to hold on to Lao Xu, "Thank you, Editor-in-Chief Xu! I'm grateful for your hard work! Yes, we are already old acquaintances, but this is our first time meeting, so lucky to meet!"

"It's right. Through your paper, we have been familiar with each other for a long time. Although this is the first time we meet, we feel like we're right away." Lao Xu greeted sideways and said, "Xiaolin, Section Chief Fang's room, don't arrange others."

"Mr. Xu, are you talking about Mr. Fang Hanmin's room only arranged for himself?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

"However, the conference group stipulates that all participants will be admitted to standard double rooms, and two guests must be arranged for each room, so that no waste will be caused."

"I know the rules of the conference team, but Section Chief Fang is exceptional. He must have a quiet environment. I will say hello to the conference team and I will be responsible for any matters."

Fang Hanmin on the side felt a little embarrassed, "Mr. Xu, I should stay in a double standard room according to the requirements of the conference group."

"You don't have to worry about it, this is my arrangement. Let's go, I'll accompany you to the hotel." Lao Xu asked again: "Xiaolin, has Section Chief Fang's room been arranged? Which room is it?"

"After the arrangement, let Mr. Fang check in Room 606."

"Okay, Chief Fang, let's go."...

Accompanied by Editor-in-Chief Xu, the driver of the conference group took the two of them to the booked hotel. Entering the room and putting down his luggage. Lao Xu asked Fang Hanmin to have a short rest. In the evening, the organizing committee arranged a welcome banquet for the participants.

Lao Xu is the editor-in-chief of Pharmaceutical Technology magazine. During this technical seminar, he was responsible for contacting all the experts and professors. He selected all the topics involved in the papers and speeches read at the seminar.

Before the dinner started, Editor-in-Chief Xu insisted that Fang Hanmin sit at the same table with several nationally renowned industry experts. Fang Hanmin doesn't like such occasions. He is too different from the technical authorities in the pharmaceutical industry. Some people can't help asking about his academic qualifications and titles. Because of his identity as a time traveler, whenever Fang Hanmin lies and excuses such problems, he himself feels bored. In addition, because he is from two worlds with those industry leaders, Fang Hanmin is unwilling to have any connection with them.

However, Lao Xu's invitation was respectful to Fang Hanmin, and Fang Hanmin fully understood this kind of enthusiasm. From the meeting until now, Editor-in-Chief Xu never mentioned his old classmate, Lao Xia, chief engineer of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory. His enthusiasm for Fang Hanmin surprised Fang Hanmin himself.

It was not that Editor-in-Chief Xu forgot his old classmates. He had been in contact with Lao Xia for so many years. Among their classmates in college, he was the only existence. Lao Xu contacted Fang Hanmin, but it was the thread that Lao Xia was leading.

However, Fang Hanmin impressed Editor-in-Chief Xu too deeply!

Although the two did not know each other before, the four consecutive papers published by Fang Hanmin in Pharmaceutical Technology more than half a year ago have caused a strong shock in the industry. The editorial department not only received many letters from readers, but also made great contributions to the magazine's subscription volume. The number of subscriptions for Pharmaceutical Technology magazine this year has increased by 50% compared with previous years!

The key is to measure from the perspective of Lao Xu's more than 30 years of being a pharmaceutical technology editor. He believes that Fang Hanmin's papers are too high. In the history of the founding of Pharmaceutical Technology for more than 30 years, Fang Hanmin's four papers are unique.

Lao Xu believes that the process technology described in the four papers is quite advanced and is unique in China at present.

Therefore, when Lao Xu was looking for the candidates for the paper to be read, he was the first to think of Fang Hanmin and his paper. As soon as he met, the two had endless things to say, so of course he didn't have time to inquire about his old classmate Mr. Xia.

Although Fang Hanmin is only in his twenties and is still a young man who is incomparable to his fame and famous industry experts in China, his papers are outstanding, and the new hydrogenation catalytic process of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory is very proud of the industry. Lao Xu believes that Fang Hanmin is fully qualified to be on par with these famous experts.

It was hard to refuse the kindness, and Fang Hanmin really couldn't refute Lao Xu's face, so he had to bite the bullet and agree.

When Lao Xu and Fang Hanmin came to Table 1, several experts had already taken the seat.

"Editor Xu, you are late, let's wait!" said an expert.

"I'm sorry to let the experts wait for a long time, but it's not too late to serve the food. I will punish myself for a drink later, which is considered to be apologizing for you." It can be seen that Lao Xu and these experts have long been familiar with each other.

"We can't bear to drink as much as you can. Just forget about the punishment. Oh, you won't introduce to you, which institute or university the young man next to you comes from?"

Before Chief Xu introduced the article, the old expert on the opposite side suddenly stood up, "Xiao Fang, Fang Hanmin, is it you? When did you arrive?"

Except for the two parties involved, everyone else, including Lao Xu, felt it was inexplicable.

Because it was the first time that he sat at the same table with so many famous domestic industry experts whom he didn't know, Fang Hanmin couldn't help but feel a little nervous, so he lowered his head after sitting down and did not pay attention to other guests at the same table.

Hearing someone calling his name, Fang Hanmin raised his head and immediately recognized the other party. He hurriedly got up and ran over, stretched out his hands to hold the other party, "Professor Fei, are you here too? Are you in good health?"

Everyone was confused. The two of them were probably fifty years apart in age. Why did they feel like they were like they were right at first sight? Are they teachers, students, fellow villagers or alumni? They all know that Lao Fei graduated from a prestigious school, and it seems that the young man’s background is not simple.

Just when everyone was confused, Professor Fei asked Lao Xu and said, "Editor Xu, I will interfere with the matter. I will introduce this young man to you first. Is it OK?"

"Of course! Professor Fei, I also want to know, how did you meet?"

Lao Fei signaled Fang Hanmin to return to his seat. He introduced to everyone the general experience of his understanding with Fang Hanmin. "Their achievements have a high technical content. Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory invited seven of us to do the appraisal, and the other six are also very powerful. I said that everyone here is familiar with them. It is said that the achievement later won the first prize of scientific and technological progress in their province, which is indeed good. What I want to say is that Comrade Xiao Fang's performance at the appraisal meeting was very exciting!"

"Professor Fei, it should be quite good to get your praise!" Another expert echoed.

"Just listening to me, I read the seminar agenda. He seemed to be reading the paper at the meeting. You will know when you look at it." A great expert like Lao Fei never imposes his own opinions on others.

Editor-in-chief Xu took over and first introduced the experts, and then said: "Yes, he wants to read the paper at the seminar. If time allows, he may also give a report on the 'A Brief Analysis of the Development Trends of Pharmaceutical Technology'."

One of the experts suddenly realized and said, "After working for a long time, he was the author of four papers published in Pharmaceutical Technology? I never thought! So young?"

"I have read all those papers, and my level is quite high."

"Are the technology involved in several papers the result of the appraisal presided over by Professor Fei? That technology has been industrialized? It is incredible!"

"What's so incredible? Professor Fei said that the others' achievements have been appraised, and the appraisal specifications are very high, and they have won the first prize of provincial science and technology progress."

"The technology is too advanced, I can't imagine it, it's really not simple!"

"I haven't heard of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory before, it's a small local enterprise, right?"...

Experts were talking, and Fang Hanmin was about to take this opportunity to promote Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory. "Our unit is a local state-owned enterprise with more than 4,000 employees. There are two workshops and six production lines. Professor Fei and others saw with their own eyes that all the production lines in our second workshop use this new process and the effect is very good."

While speaking, the rich dishes were served. Editor-in-Chief Xu ordered the waiter to pour wine, "Put the cup in front of everyone, without limit, drink it at will. It is not easy for everyone to meet. Take this opportunity to drink and communicate."

Unlike ordinary dinner parties, the people here are all technical elites. They drink voluntarily. There are no routines in social wine parties here. Even Editor-in-Chief Xu, who represents the organizer of the conference, only symbolically suggested that everyone raise their glasses together, and after taking a sip, they would never take the lead in proposing again.

A young expert might want to find someone to drink with him, so he picked up his glass and said, "Secretary Fang, it seems that you are not old, so you should be able to drink some bar?"

"I can drink a little bit, Professor Li, it's an honor to know you, I'll to you." Fang Hanmin walked over with a glass of wine.

"Oh, thank you very much! Let's respect each other, okay?" Professor Li stood up and clinked glasses with Fang Hanmin.

Professor Li is a professor-level senior engineer at a medical research institute. He seemed to have found a soulmate at the wine table. After Fang Hanmin returned to his seat, Professor Li changed seats with the guests next to Fang Hanmin and insisted on sitting with Fang Hanmin.

This glass of wine was proposed by Professor Li, and Fang Hanmin knew that he would come but not go. Besides, Lao Li is a respected expert. Of course, Fang Hanmin would like to say he would be to him, "Professor Li, although I have limited alcohol tolerance, it is an eye-opener to know so many top domestic pharmaceutical experts today. I would like to pay my respects to you again!"

Professor Li didn't refuse, picked up the wine glass and drank it, and then asked: "Secretary Fang, your achievements can win the first prize of provincial science and technology progress, which means that the technical level is quite high. You just said that Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory is a local state-owned enterprise with a unit of more than 4,000 people. The scale is not large. What I want to know is, is your national first technology independently developed by Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory?"

This seemingly simple question cannot be treated simply. Professor Li is a top expert in pharmaceutical technology. He knows how difficult this technology is. Not to mention a small-scale enterprise, even if it is placed in a national scientific research institution like them, it will be extremely difficult to develop such technology at this stage.
