I Am the President of the University

Before coming to the Optical Core Research Center, Shen Le was an associate researcher in the chip team of Tsinghua University. As a full-time researcher, he had no teaching duties and only needed to concentrate on scientific research.

Coupled with the status and treatment at Tsinghua University, life is quite simple. As for being promoted or leaving, it is not a problem at all based on his ability and academic qualifications, so he is still relatively comfortable.

Shen Le rejected the high-paying invitation and green card from the United States and chose to return to China without hesitation, naturally because of his patriotism.

Therefore, when the secretary asked him if he wanted to join the support team of the Optical Core Research Center, he agreed without thinking.

At this time, Shen Le, who was watching the machine's reaction, heard a male voice in his ears.

"Chen Le, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, will you go back?"

The person who spoke was named Yu Jingyao, who also entered Tsinghua University at the same time as him, and they were both studying in the United States, so their relationship was quite close.

Shen Le did not answer the other party's question immediately, but asked back with a calm face, "Are you going back then?"

"I?"

Yu Jingyao looked struggling, obviously having a hard time making a decision.

"I don't know. Seeing that the progress here at Optical Core is getting smoother and smoother, with one more person and more strength, of course I want to stay, but..."

Speaking of this, Yu Jingyao sighed slightly, with a slump on his face, "I went to the United States to study for a Ph.D., and sometimes I didn't have time to go back during the Chinese New Year. Now I finally return to work in China, and I also want to spend more time with my parents..."

When the Guanghua University holiday notice came out a few days ago, the housing price notice of Optical Core Research Center also came out.

The time is definitely not as long as that of students, but there are still 10 days, 3 days before the new year and 7 days after the new year. You can even apply for an extension to 14 days, and we also accept applications for New Year's stay.

Seeing his friend in such a difficult situation, Shen Le chuckled, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him, "You're right, 10 days is not a long time, just go home and spend time with your family and then come back."

"Then are you going home too? Have you bought the air ticket?" Yu Jingyao sighed again, seeming a little unwilling to accept it, but since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. If the optical core is missing, he will not be able to study it, but without him at home, he will not be able to study it. , maybe the smiles on the parents’ faces will be much less.

"I won't go back." Shen Le shook his head.

"not going back?"

Yu Jingyao's eyes suddenly widened, and he was stunned when he looked at Shen Le, who looked unconcerned.

"When I heard what you said just now, I thought you were going back too..."

After a pause, as if he felt a little uncomfortable speaking, Yu Jingyao lowered his voice, "You really don't want to go back? This is the Chinese New Year. If you miss it, you have to wait until next year!"

Chinese people take the New Year very seriously.

There is even an old saying: "If you have money or not, go home to celebrate the New Year." Not only whether you are in the south or north of the world, but also whether you make more or less money this year, many people will try their best to go home to celebrate the New Year.

Family reunion is a small wish of many migrant workers.

"If you miss the Spring Festival this year, you will still have next year, but Optical Core cannot wait until next year!" Shen Le said loudly, with determination in his eyes.

Just thinking about his parents and elders at home who were looking forward to his return made him feel a faint pain in his heart.

"Dad, Mom, my son is unfilial. He can't go home to spend the New Year with his parents this year. I will definitely go back next year!"

In the face of national festivals and the love of his parents, he chose to stick to his own path.

Optical core is too important to the country and cannot be delayed any longer.

Engaging in scientific research is not just playing house. Once you are a step too slow, all your previous efforts will be wasted!

"On the chip, our country started too late, and we really can't delay it any longer..." Yu Jingyao said in a low voice.

Then, he raised his head and gave Shen Le a bared smile.

"I heard that the New Year's Eve dinner prepared by Guanghua University is very sumptuous. Lao Shen, it's not good for you to eat alone!"

"I won't go back either. I can't be left behind in gathering Guanghua Wool!"

Hearing Yu Jingyao's reason, Shen Le felt warm in his heart, but he still wanted to persuade him.

But before he opened his mouth, several familiar voices sounded beside him almost at the same time.

They are all members of their Tsinghua University chip team.

"Gong Shen, why don't you tell us about this good thing? Just for the New Year's Eve dinner in Guanghua, you have to apply to stay!"

"That's right, isn't Guanghua usually very rich? I want to see how rich it is this time."

"I think this will work. I always have New Year's Eve dinner at home, but I haven't experienced it at school. This time is a great opportunity, and I won't leave."

"If the New Year's Eve dinner is not as delicious as our Tsinghua canteen, then we won't comply, let's tell you!"

"Professor Huang is right. If it doesn't taste good, I have to complain about it on Weibo and TikTok. How shameless!"

"Hahaha."

Laughter echoed in the laboratory. Shen Le opened his mouth and swallowed the words that originally came to his mouth.

He looked around at everyone and said with a bright smile:

"Okay, then let's see how good Guanghua's canteen chef is when we get there!"

…

In the evening, in the director's office of the Optical Core Research Center.

Ren Hong looked at the 99+ unread emails in his computer mailbox and sighed.

"Isn't this nonsense!"

The stay-at-home staff of the Optical Core Research Center during the New Year need to apply, and the approver is Professor Ren Hong.

The research center with a staff of four to five hundred people has received 47 applications to stay in the past few days. The number is not small. In a few days, it is estimated that nearly a hundred people will choose to stay.

Although the manpower was reduced by more than half, nearly a hundred people remained, which is already a large number.

After all, the Spring Festival is too important in the minds of Chinese people.

Even if they know they will be quarantined if they go there, many people will rush there.

I clicked on several emails, the contents of which were similar, all of which were applications for the Chinese New Year Stay-at-Home Research Center.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

The new email reminder in the lower right corner has not stopped since noon today. In just a few minutes of checking the email, seven or eight new emails have come in.

Ren Hong shook his head, did not speak, but called Dai Wenyu.

Ten minutes later, Dai Wenyu walked into the office and explained the whole story with excitement.

"So it's like this..." Ren Hong was startled. He really didn't expect that the cause of all this was because of one person.

"Teacher, are you going home for the Chinese New Year?" Dai Wenyu touched his mind and blurted out after his brain became hot.

"I am the director of the center, so naturally I want to stay in school!" Professor Ren Hong said angrily.

Dai Wenyu curled his lips, he didn't believe this.

He obviously had the same idea as everyone else and had to use his job as a cover.

After Dai Wenyu left, Ren Hong had no time to think about this.

What was more important right now was to talk to Chen Hao about how to deal with this matter.

This matter may be said to be simple, but it may be said to be quite serious.

The winding track and field not far from the Optical Core Research Center.

Chen Hao was taking a walk to eat after dinner when his cell phone vibrated in his trouser pocket.

After listening to what the other party said, he replied in a deep voice:

"Wait for me, I'll go over now."

ps: The situation has been much better recently. I have tried my best to replace the previous chapters in the past two days.

It’s just one chapter today, I’m so sorry.
