The conscience of heaven and earth, this is really not Gao Fan's own thoughts, but his conditioned reflex formed by arguing with others on the Internet in later generations.
When it comes to arguing, it doesn't matter whether it's justified or not. As long as you can give one more reason than your opponent, you can proudly declare victory. The etheric space is filled with glass hearts that choke to death on unreasonable arguments.
"But scientists have national boundaries." Xia Shihui countered without hesitation.
"No way, classmate Xia, you don't say this often, do you?"
Gao Fan was surprised. The opponent was so straightforward in the fight, and he didn't look like a novice. Could it be that he was also a time traveler, and maybe we had fans of each other in the previous life.
Xia Shihui said: "This is what my father and others often say."
"What does your dad do?"
"I'm a prospector, didn't I tell you?"
"Uh-huh, I said that." Gao Fan remembered. This girl also said that she had been prospecting for minerals in the mountains with her parents since she was a child. She had developed a pair of scuds and was said to be able to catch snakes and cook snake soup.
"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 in the world to propose the theory of land-phase oil generation because he had a strong desire to get rid of the label of 'China is poor in oil'.
"My dad often used this example to tell us children. They also said that the country needed a kind of mine. 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 her 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 in later generations, Gao Fan can guess it.
There are so many stories left behind from those days of facing difficulties. Many times, they would give 100% effort even though they knew there was only 1% hope.
The example of land-based oil production is actually quite typical. Foreigners looking for oil in China will come to the conclusion that China is poor in oil after just looking around, 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. If there is a little 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 other people's scientists.
"But if my classmate stayed in China, there would be no chance to study this project. What do you think we should do?" Gao Fan asked.
He asked this question not so much for Wu Zixian as for himself. He had many ideas in his mind, but was restricted by conditions and could not implement them. It was really frustrating.
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, including students and
teacher.
"Some of the reasons why they go abroad are because they feel that the living conditions abroad are good and they don't want to stay in China anymore. Others, like the situation you mentioned, are talented but do not have the conditions to engage in scientific research at home, so they can only go abroad.
go."
Gao Fan lamented: "It is indeed a pity. We selected the best talents from across the country, spent so much energy on training them, and then they all went abroad."
"There was a person in my dad's work who went to study abroad, and then stayed abroad and never came back." Xia Shihui said, "When my dad talks about him, he feels very sorry and says he is quite talented."
"Well, this is the initial stage."
"What primary stage?"
"It's nothing, I'm just talking nonsense." Gao Fan quickly concealed it. The concept of the primary stage would have to wait until a few years later to be proposed. He said now that it was indeed a bit too early.
Xia Shihui didn't pay attention. When she thought about it, 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 stone into gold, make a lot of money, and create particularly good scientific research conditions for all those talented people, so that they can
Stay at home and do research with peace of mind.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like this? Are you trying to say that I'm too childish?"
Xia Shihui protested dissatisfied because she found Gao Fan staring directly at her with a strange light in his eyes.
"No, no, how could you be naive? Your idea is very good, extremely good." Gao Fan said repeatedly.
"What do you think?" Xia Shihui forgot what she said.
Gao Fan said: "Didn't you say you wanted to turn stone into gold and make a large amount of money?"
"What, you think I can't do it?" Xia Shihui said, "I study geology. Maybe one day I can find a big gold mine in the cracks of the rocks. Wouldn't that be like turning rocks into gold?"
"Haha, I believe it, I believe it." Gao Fan replied with a smile.
"Huh, I know you don't believe it. I'll ignore you!" Xia Shihui took Gao Fan's words as a taunt. She glared at Gao Fan and asked, "Hey, Gao Fan, you're not going to jump into the lake, are you? If you don't jump
Okay, I'm going to the library."
"I won't jump anymore. I really won't jump this time." Gao Fan said with a smile.
Now that his mind is clear, he has no thoughts of jumping into the lake. Even if he wants to jump, he still wants to splash in the water to release the joy in his heart.
"Ha, it turns out you really wanted to jump just now!" Xia Shihui said as if she had discovered a new world.
"I only think about it a little bit."
"what about now?"
"Now there is no trace left. I find that it is better to live than to die."
"Why did you change suddenly?"
"Because I suddenly found my purpose in life."
"life goals?"
Xia Shihui looked at Gao Fan suspiciously, opened her mouth, and finally felt embarrassed to ask her suspicions.
You don't want to chase me, do you?
Gao Fan didn't know that the little girl would think wrongly. He smiled and replied: "Yes, it is the goal of life. What you just said was so good. I have decided to learn the magic of turning stone into gold and conjuring With a large sum of money, all those who want to engage in scientific research can stay in the country with peace of mind."
"You are hopeless!"
Xia Shihui firmly believed that Gao Fan was laughing at her, so she said angrily and turned around to leave.
"Don't be angry, what I said is true. By the way, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, braised chicken nuggets from the internship restaurant!" Gao Fan shouted from behind.
"I'm so angry with you, you can keep the braised chicken nuggets for yourself!"
Xia Shihui's voice floated over from a distance, but she had disappeared.

Do you believe me when I say that Miss Xia is not the heroine I designed? Just like Girl Shen back then...
