You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 22
Chapter 22: Falsely Accused! We Can’t Just Run To Their Sect And Make Them Go To School!
Liu Qiming’s efficiency was very high. Before long, he persuaded the Huazhong University of Science and Technology president and secured Su Qin’an’s admission to a combined undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral program in nuclear physics, with exemptions from all entrance examinations.
In simpler terms, he didn’t need to attend school; a name on the roster would suffice.
As for a supervisor…
Naturally, it would be under the Huazhong University of Science and Technology President Chang Yuanhong’s name.
After learning about Su Qin’an’s achievements, Chang Yuanhong even considered taking him as his teacher…
The condition for all of this was attending the graduation defense of Huazhong University of Science and Technology undergraduate nuclear physics students.
If you insist on asking why undergraduates instead of graduate students…
It’s because the graduate students didn’t have time.
When Liu Qiming and Su Qin’an arrived, the conference room was almost full, and the undergraduate students preparing for their defenses were nervously familiarizing themselves with their presentations.
The two quietly sat at the back of the conference room.
However, Su Qin’an’s entrance still caused a stir.
“Whose child is this? How did he get in? ”
“I don’t know, the one next to him is probably his elder…”
“Forget about that, have you memorized your presentation? Be careful not to get failed by your supervisor! ”
“Scared…”
Soon, the commotion grew louder.
Because Chang Yuanhong had entered.
An undergraduate graduation defense, and the dean himself came?
A group of undergraduates who hadn’t even graduated were very panicked.
Even the supervisors in front stood up in fear and greeted Chang Yuanhong.
Chang Yuanhong nodded and went to the back, sitting next to Liu Qiming.
“Wow, that boy has quite the background! The Dean Chang is sitting with him? ”
“Could he be Dean Chang’s illegitimate child…”
“Could he be the child of Dean Chang and the man next to him? ”
“Girl, calm down…”
“Girl! In the world of fujoshi, men can absolutely have children with men! ”
“… ”
When Chang Yuanhong heard “men having children with men,” the corners of his mouth twitched.
Today’s young people, their thoughts are…avant-garde! Even I’m a little behind the times!
“Is this the genius who proposed controllable nuclear fusion? ”
Chang Yuanhong curiously looked at Su Qin’an: “Too young! ”
“I told you he’s underage, hasn’t even been to university, what’s wrong with being young? ”
Liu Qiming laughed: “Let me introduce you, this is Su Qin’an, and this is the Huazhong University of Science and Technology Dean, Chang Yuanhong! Just call him Little Chang! ”
Chang Yuanhong: …Damn it, why say that in front of the younger generation!
Chang Yuanhong suppressed the urge to slap Liu Qiming and said, “A true hero is a youth! I must have a good talk with you sometime! If the next generation is like you, the Chinese renaissance will be just around the corner! ”
“Dean Chang is too modest,” Su Qin’an smiled, “I’m just doing what I can for China. ”
Up front, the graduation defense had begun.
The first male student went up, opened his PowerPoint, took a deep breath, loosened his pale fingertips, and began his defense.
“Hello, professors, my name is…”
After listening for a while, Su Qin’an suddenly remembered a passage he had seen before.
Q: What is the hardest part of a graduation defense?
A: My thesis is the defense.
Obviously, this statement is the truth!
Although Huazhong University of Science and Technology students are all exceptionally talented, and this male student’s thesis was also very substantial, in the eyes of the supervisors…
Let’s not talk about it.
As Su Qin’an listened, his thoughts drifted unconsciously to Xie Yingqing, far away, guessing what she was doing, whether she was missing him, whether…
People in love, even the surrounding air is filled with the sour smell of love（The author is annoyed）
About twenty minutes later, the first male student finished his presentation and waited patiently for the professors’ questions.
An old professor pushed up his glasses and then asked a very professional question.
The student was immediately stunned, his eyes blank, as if saying: Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
Another old professor slapped the table: “Why are you asking him this? Are you just trying to prevent my student from graduating? ”
The professor who asked the question immediately retorted: “What do you mean I don’t want him to graduate? I’m just seeing that he answered well, wanting to test his abilities! ”
“You haven’t solved the problem you’ve been researching for a lifetime, why are you using it to make things difficult for an undergraduate child! He’s only been researching for four years, even if he’s a genius, what inspiration can he give you? Are you targeting me? ”
“I you*********…”
Seeing that the two professors were about to quarrel, the old professor in the middle coughed lightly, gave them a look, indicating that the dean was still present, and told them to restrain themselves, then announced that the student had passed.
The student, relieved, fled the stage, even forgetting to close his PowerPoint.
Next was a female student.
“Hello, professors, my name is…”
The female student’s defense was also good, and Chang Yuanhong beside Liu Qiming smiled slightly, showing his approval.
“Good, this student spoke very well, the thinking is clear. Next, I would like to ask the student…”
It was the same old professor who had asked the question before, and he asked another professional question.
Su Qin’an felt that if he hadn’t recently been cramming knowledge from the knowledge base, he probably wouldn’t have understood what was being asked.
“…So, student, I think there’s a problem with your thesis! I wonder if you can answer my question? ”
The old professor probably felt that his tone was a little harsh just now, so he deliberately softened his tone this time.
However…
It was the professor who had just defended his student who shouted: “What do you mean? You’re targeting me, right? I only have these two students defending, and you’re going after them both? ”
“Who’s targeting you? If I have a question, I can’t ask it? According to you, the defense part of the graduation defense is also unnecessary; just finish presenting and pass directly! ”
“You ask whatever you want, what do you mean the thesis has a problem? Her thesis was guided by me, do I not know if there’s a problem? Or do you mean that all the theses I’ve guided over the years are wrong? ”
“Old geezer, don’t be a fool! ”
“Old fart, don’t change the subject! ”
“… ”
Su Qin’an at the back couldn’t help but laugh, covering his mouth.
He didn’t expect that these outwardly serious old professors at Huazhong University of Science and Technology were actually so…interesting?
The old professor in the middle’s face darkened: “What are you two arguing about! It’s just a question, why are you acting like you’re at war? You two have been bickering for a lifetime, haven’t you had enough? Do you have to embarrass yourselves in front of the president?!”
After hearing his words, the two calmed down.
The female student giving the defense was also scared and stunned on the stage.
Chang Yuanhong’s inner thoughts: Not embarrassing at all, keep arguing! I love to watch, I want to watch more!
Liu Qiming whispered: “Old Chang, the professors at your school are really energetic! ”
“Not at all! ” Chang Yuanhong modestly said: “Not comparable to your Ministry of Science and Technology! ”
After all, he wasn’t completely unaware of how fiercely the Ministry of Science and Technology argued.
“But I’m really curious, kid, where did you go to school before? How did you learn? ” Chang Yuanhong asked: “Such a genius, what school could teach a genius like you? ”
“Ah, this…”
Su Qin’an, who had never attended school and woke up with a system one day, felt panicked: “I, uhm…my family didn’t let me go to school, so…I never went…”
“Never went? ”
Chang Yuanhong was shocked: “You haven’t been to school and you can still think of these things? The younger generation is so formidable? ”
“Maybe I’m exceptionally gifted…”
“Old Liu! We need to tell the Ministry of Education about this! ”
Chang Yuanhong changed the subject: “How can there still be people who haven’t even received nine years of compulsory education? What’s the Ministry of Education doing? What about delaying people’s education? ”
“Don’t worry, I’ll tell those people at the Ministry of Education when I get back. ”
Liu Qiming said.
Ministry of Education: Unjustly accused! We can’t just run to people’s cultivation sects and make them go to school!
Su Qin’an looked at the noisy defense scene and couldn’t help but cough, saying to Chang Yuanhong beside him: “Dean Chang, I think these students’ theses are all good, why don’t you just say they passed? ”
Chang Yuanhong pondered for a moment and hummed.
Their voices were neither too loud nor too soft, just right for reaching every corner of the room.
At this moment, in the eyes of those students, Su Qin’an was radiating divine light, he was a god! A god who saved their lives!
In the eyes of the professors, it was their shocked Dean Chang, the iron-faced and impartial Chang who often deducted their attendance, who actually! Agreed!
Chang Yuanhong: Humph, a bunch of guys who only care about appearances! If it weren’t for trying to curry favor with this little guy, would I do this? They even slandered me! No, I need to find a reason to deduct some of their salary this month!
