Chen Baohua's home.
Chen Baohua, who was staring at the TV, couldn't help but say, "F * ck me."
It wasn't until his wife hit him on the arm that he realized his daughter was also here. He immediately coughed and quickly changed the topic.
"This kid … He's a bit nutty. He's the chairman of the ILHCRC, yet he resigned."
Although Lu Zhou had done similar things before, Chen Baohua wasn't one of them.
"It's fine, he can relax a little." Chen Yushan looked at the figure on the TV and said with some distress, "He has been doing research behind closed doors some time ago. After he came out, he lost a lot of weight."
Chen Baohua couldn't help but take a sip of water to dilute the sour taste in his stomach. He put on a serious expression and continued.
"The chairman of the ILHCRC can be regarded as the leader of the domestic physics community. It's the kind of department that connects with the world and has diplomatic attributes … Oh my god! In terms of rank, he should be at least a deputy division chief, right? He resigned just like that? "
Chen Baohua felt a little sour in his stomach.
He had been in the system for half his life, but he had only managed to become a small official, and he was still in the concierge department, a department that was far from his grandmother's house.
This kid was only thirty years old, yet he climbed to such a high position. He resigned because he was unhappy. This made Chen Baohua feel like he had wasted most of his life.
"He's a real scholar, not an official fanatic like you." Chen Yushan rolled her eyes at her father and said, "It doesn't matter if he's a deputy department head or not, as long as he's happy."
Looking at the blissful expression on his daughter's face, Chen Baohua was quite happy. His heart was as sweet as if he had eaten honey, but he still felt that the stomach acid was about to overflow …
…
Back at the Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center.
In the poster exhibition area in front of the floor-to-ceiling screen in the lobby on the first floor.
Less than half a minute after Lu Zhou announced his retirement from the ILHCRC, the entire poster exhibition area was swept by exclamations of disbelief!
"Professor Lu plans to withdraw from the board meeting?!"
"What's going on???"
"No way! There's no way the ILHCRC doesn't have Professor Lu! Is the ILHCRC still the ILHCRC without Lu Zhou? "
"I don't believe it! I don't believe he would leave the ILHCRC! This was his painstaking effort! He will never give up on the ILHCRC! "
"Is a heaven without God still a heaven? Sigh … "
"I must have made a mistake just now! Could it be a problem with the simultaneous translation? For example … he just wants to rest for a few days. "
However, it was not a problem of translation.
Because all of the Chinese scholars present were completely dumbfounded.
Resign from the ILHCRC Board!
Does that mean he won't participate in the next ILHCRC chairman election?!
Although the ILHCRC released the news of a board meeting and a two-year board change a long time ago, almost no one had discussed this matter before!
Because in everyone's mind, it was almost certain that Lu Zhou would continue to be the chairman of the ILHCRC. Especially after the completion of the hyperspace theory, even if one looked back in history, it was impossible to find anyone who had made more contributions to physics than him.
In terms of prestige in the academic world, no one had ever created so many miracles!
It was no exaggeration to say that the reason why the ILHCRC could become a holy land in the minds of physicists around the world was half because of the Hadron Collider on the Moon, and the other half was because of Lu Zhou himself!
He was like a flag.
Wherever his index finger pointed, that was the future!
And now, he was leaving?!
No one could accept this reality!
There was an uproar outside the No.1 conference hall, and the same was true inside the conference hall.
Many people sitting in the first few rows looked at Lu Zhou, who turned around and left after bowing. They stood up from their seats and wanted to rush to the stage to stop Lu Zhou from leaving.
Even if it was just one more term!
Even if it was only a few months, at least give them some time to prepare!
There were still too many mysteries about hyperspace that had not been explored after the hyperspace theory. There was also the void in the extra dimension. Whether there was a great will manipulating the universe at will was still an unknown conjecture …
He opened a new door for the physics community, but he also threw the problems behind the door in front of everyone.
Even though he had decided to leave, the physicists present hoped that he could stay a little longer …
Professor Whittle looked at the chaotic venue. He was expressionless, but his heart was like a lemon; he was not in a good mood.
He had always thought that as a world-class scientific research institution, it was China's strong national strength, as well as academic resources such as the ILHCRC and the Lunar Hadron Collider, that made Lu Zhou's status in the physics community today. He did not expect that Lu Zhou's personal prestige had surpassed that of the ILHCRC itself.
When the Brookhaven National Laboratory and even the entire North America research institutions announced their withdrawal from the ILHCRC, there was no such situation.
But now, Lu Zhou had only announced his resignation from the ILHCRC board of directors, and it caused such a fierce reaction.
Professor Whittle realized this, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
On one hand, it was because of jealousy.
On the other hand, it was because of frustration …
At this time, the British representative, Professor Fernando, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said in a sleep-talking voice.
"It's incredible … My friend, do you really think that kind of person exists in this world?"
Professor Whittle noticed that Professor Fernando was looking at him. He hesitated for a moment and spoke.
"What kind of person?"
"The kind of person who doesn't covet power at all …" Fernando looked at Professor Whittle.
After a smile, he said in a strange tone, "In fact, standing in the position of the chairman of the ILHCRC is equivalent to standing at the peak of academic authority in the physics community. If it were me, no one would be able to make me give up my chair before I was seventy years old! "
"Maybe … For those 'saints' who only care about knowledge."
Professor Whittle shrugged his shoulders. He didn't want to continue this topic. He cast his slightly gloomy eyes on the stage. He stared at the back of the departing figure and cursed Lu Zhou in his heart.
However, for some reason, when Lu Zhou's figure disappeared behind the curtain, a strange feeling suddenly swept through his brain.
In a short moment, he suddenly understood something.
"No one would be able to make me give up my chair before I was seventy years old … I see."
As he murmured softly, a trace of shock gradually crept into his turbid pupils.
I see!
He finally understood the real reason why that man left!
With the top hardware and software resources in the physics community, the ILHCRC was bound to become the focus of academic power disputes.
No matter who was sitting in the position of chairman, they would certainly not be willing to give up their power.
However, that man chose to leave at this time. Not only did he set an example, but he also added a shackle to this supreme power.
Even Professor Lu only served as chairman for one term.
Who had the right to stay on this stool for another day?
No matter what kind of whirlpool the ILHCRC fell into, at least one thing would not change. That was, the term of the chairman was limited to two years.
Professor Whittle looked at the empty podium and suddenly felt a little lost in his heart. He closed his tired eyes unhappily.
Is there only knowledge in your eyes?
That was obviously not the case …
He didn't leave because he didn't care.
