Who wants to be Harris' student?
Xia Fei purposely paused to observe the performance of these young scientists. These people were all poached by Andre from various research institutes. Their average age was in their twenties, and every one of them was the cream of the crop.
According to the original trajectory of their lives, they were supposed to follow those professors and specialists who had already made a name for themselves, working and learning at the same time until they could run a research project or lead a research team. Only then would they be able to truly make a name for themselves.
They were very lucky, for Xia Fei had given these young scientists a brand new choice. They did not need to follow the footsteps of their seniors. They would have their own laboratory and research funding in Quantum Holdings. Of course, it was also necessary for them to be Harris's assistants. Other than that, they could carry out their own research as they wished.
Although most of the universities and research institutes on Earth claimed to value talents, they more or less discriminated against the young, believing that they lacked experience and qualifications. Xia Fei did not think so. It was true that the young lacked experience, but they had a drive that the old did not. If they were given a more relaxed environment, these young and inexperienced calves might be able to defeat the big bad wolf.
No one could predict the path of life, so why should these young people walk the path that others had taken? Whose rule was that?
The young scientists present were all curious, not knowing what Xia Fei was going to say next.
Xia Fei smiled. "I know that everyone gave up their positions in various research institutes to come to Quantum Holdings not only for the generous pay but also for the bright future of your career.
"The contract that the company has given you will last for three years, and you will not be allowed to take a single step out of the laboratory. To be honest, this contract is a little too strict, but I can guarantee that in the near future, you will all be proud of signing this contract, for it will be the wisest decision you'll ever make in your life."
Xia Fei pointed at Harris. "Everyone, let me ask you this: After all this time together, what do you think of Harris's standard?"
"Excellent!"
"His standard is very high, far exceeding what we know."
"That's right. I'm afraid that even my mentor can't catch up to one ten-thousandth of Harris's standard."
Though they were extremely dissatisfied with Harris's character, they all acknowledged his authority when it came to scientific research. Harris, who was standing to the side, was slightly pleased with himself. Glancing at Xia Feis calm demeanor from the corner of his eye, Harris tactfully lowered his head.
Xia Fei nodded. "Are you all willing to become Harriss students, learning genetic engineering and other advanced knowledge from him?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Who among these young scientists did not want to learn from Harris? After all, this old man was the pride of the entire Pan-human Alliance. However, Harris's temper made them feel a little afraid. Ever since they arrived, Harris had always been cold and indifferent. Forget learning from him, it was difficult to even see him in a good mood.
Xia Fei casually glanced at Harris, who immediately stood up and said, From today onwards, Ill no longer treat you the way I did in the past. Please accept my apology.
Pa!
Harris gave a standard bow. He lowered his head and faced the young scientists.
The young scientists were dumbfounded. No matter how much hatred they had, it was resolved with a bow from the old man.
Gu Fengzhu looked at Xia Fei in surprise. She could not understand what kind of charm the seemingly ordinary Xia Fei had to make the eccentric Harris so obedient. Scientists were usually proud, and Gu Fengzhu was no exception. However, she began to admire Xia Fei, who was a few years younger than her.
"I promise all of you that from today onwards, I, Harris, will teach all of you everything I know. As long as you are willing to learn, I will definitely be able to satisfy your curiosity. However, you must be aware that I am very strict with my students, so please be mentally prepared."
"I haven't learned much in my life, but I do know graviton physics, genetics, genetics, quantum engineering, molecular engineering …"
Harris rambled on about the fields he was good at, leaving the young scientists speechless. They could not believe that a person's energy was limited, yet Harris was proficient in so many fields. He was not just a person; he was more like the combination of a top university.
This was probably the difference between a genius and an ordinary person. Harris' greatest achievement in his life was in genetics, but his research in other fields had already reached the level of a top-notch expert. To him, the biggest problem was probably the lack of time. If he had enough time, Harris's achievements would definitely be limitless.
The young scientists were excited. They were going crazy!
Who did not want to be the student of a top scholar from the Anti-Human Alliance? Even a lunatic knew what it meant.
This was when Xia Fei seized the opportunity to say, "Everyone, please don't get too excited. Mr. Harris still has to conduct his own research, so he can't devote all his time to imparting knowledge. Everyone here has a chance to become his student, but there are only three people in the first batch, and only the three most outstanding students will be qualified.
"I hope that all of you will work hard during this period of time and show your results. One month later, I will publicly announce the final list of qualified candidates. Those who win will have the opportunity to choose one of the sciences that Mr. Harris has just mentioned. Mr. Harris will also directly teach the selected candidates one-on-one for an hour every day until they have completed their studies."
It was just a few simple words, but it had stirred up the enthusiasm of the young scientists. The entire conference room was filled with excitement.
After the meeting was adjourned, there was no one in the conference room. Complain? No one was in the mood to complain at a time like this. Everyone had a new goal, and they were all excited.
Gu Fengzhu walked toward Xia Fei with a smile. Harris quickly ran away when he saw that Xia Fei was a little distracted. He was still a little scared when he recalled what happened in the lab. As a mad scientist, Harris was not afraid of death, but Xia Fei had shown him what it meant to be worse than death. Even the strongest warrior would not be able to endure it, let alone Harris, who did not even have the strength to truss a chicken.
"I'm really impressed by you. You've successfully resolved the storm that was brewing in the lab, and the researchers have found a new motivation. I'm afraid that they'll be studying and working like madmen in the coming days," Gu Fengzhu said.
Xia Fei nodded. "That's normal. It means that these young people aren't just idling around. They still have a goal and a drive."
"Is that why you're able to choose so many young people to join the lab?"
"That's part of the reason."
"Is there anything else?"
Xia Fei smiled. "Miss, knowing too much isn't a good thing for you. I don't like people trying to figure out what I'm thinking. Alright, bring me to the lab. I'll get to work."
