The researcher named Sun Yueda immediately came back to his senses. He quickly nodded and spoke.
"No problem! Please, please come with me. "
With that said, he took the lead and walked to the front, standing at the entrance of the laboratory.
Lu Zhou didn't follow him immediately. Instead, he glanced at Brother Qian next to him and spoke with a smile.
"Do you want to go with me?"
Hearing this, Qian Zhongming smiled and said.
"Academician Lu is planning to show off his skills, wouldn't it be a pity if I missed this opportunity?"
Lu Zhou coughed and spoke.
"I'm not used to your flattery."
"How is this flattery?" Qian Zhongming shook his head with a serious expression and said, "One of the founders of computational materials science, the first scholar to win the Nobel Prize in this field … I didn't make these titles up."
Just like this, the group of people followed the researcher named Sun Yueda and moved from the laboratory with the chemical vapor deposition device to their usual office upstairs.
Professor Wang Qingping stood at the door and looked at the messy office. He awkwardly explained to Lu Zhou.
"Um … We're a bit casual when we work, so the office is a bit messy. If you had told us before you came, we could have cleaned up in advance. "
"It's fine, if I stayed at home for a few days, my study room would be much messier than this. Scientific research is not performance art. You don't have to worry too much about the details, just do whatever you think is convenient. "
Seeing how Lu Zhou didn't seem to care, Professor Wang Qingping finally began to realize that he was overthinking Academician Lu and the accident in the research institute.
He thought about what Deputy Director Qian said before and couldn't help but gradually feel ashamed. He suddenly shut his mouth and stopped talking.
Lu Zhou didn't notice Professor Wang Qingping's thoughts. He followed the researcher named Sun Yueda and walked straight to the computer.
"Your mathematical model is in the computer … and the experimental process I designed."
"Open it."
"Okay … Oh yeah, do you want to see the mathematical model or the experimental process?"
"What I mean is to turn on the computer. When I need something, I will naturally find it."
Sun Yueda smiled embarrassedly. He immediately pressed the power button and gave up his office chair.
Lu Zhou smiled and said "thank you". He sat in his office chair and held the mouse. He glanced at the desktop and opened the folder containing experimental materials. He clicked on the mathematical model he designed a while ago.
Sun Yueda looked at Academician Lu, who was staring at the mathematical model on the screen. He suddenly thought of a rumor and spoke in a low voice.
"Boss, do you need me to prepare a cup of coffee for you?"
"Coffee?" Without thinking too much, Lu Zhou nodded. "Okay, as long as the instant coffee won the prize."
"Okay … Oh right, boss, do you still need a whiteboard? There are some here too. "
"Whiteboard? There's no need, just give me a few pieces of draft paper. "
The coffee and draft paper were quickly delivered together, but Lu Zhou didn't touch them immediately. Instead, he stared at the mathematical model, the experimental process, and the electron microscope image of the product on the screen. He seemed to be analyzing something.
Just like that, about five minutes passed.
Lu Zhou's eyebrows finally relaxed slightly. He reached out and picked up the cup on the table. He gently blew the mist floating on the cup and slowly took a sip.
"The model needs to be modified."
When Professor Wang Qingping heard this, he sighed in relief.
Lu Zhou's words undoubtedly meant that they weren't the ones to blame.
"Then … What do you want to do?"
"Actually, it's very simple, just give me half an hour."
Lu Zhou put down the cup and picked up a ballpoint pen from the table. He wrote a few lines of calculations on the draft paper and began to calculate.
The group of researchers, including Deputy Director Qian Zhongming, noticed Academician Lu's movements. They stared intently at the pen printed on the draft paper, waiting for him to do the next step.
However, Lu Zhou's actions were faster than they had imagined.
In fact, it didn't even take half an hour at all. Only ten minutes had passed, and the two pieces of draft paper had been filled with dense calculations. Even a scholar like Qian Zhongming, who was engaged in computational materials research, couldn't even see the taillights behind him.
Lu Zhou put down the pen in his hand and held the mouse in his right hand. His left hand was on the keyboard. He referred to the calculation results on the draft paper as he quickly modified the mathematical model on the software.
After a series of dazzling operations, he released his right hand that was holding the mouse and stood up from the office chair.
Lu Zhou looked back at the dumbfounded researchers standing behind him and spoke concisely.
"Computational materials science is just a reference. No calculated model can be directly applied without repeated tests and corrections.
"The model I gave you isn't for you to make an exact copy of it, but for you to try using the framework I provided …"
Lu Zhou looked at everyone's dumbfounded expressions. He knew that what he said was useless, so he sighed.
"Forget about it, we'll talk about this later. I've already made some simple adjustments to the model.
"Try again according to the revised model."
"If it doesn't work, come back to me."
After that, he left the office, leaving everyone looking at each other in dismay.
"… That's … it?"
Sun Yueda looked at the mathematical model on the screen in disbelief. He blinked his eyes and looked at Professor Wang Qingping, who was standing next to him. He asked in a quiet voice, "Boss, what should we do?"
Professor Wang Qingping wasn't in a much better state at the moment. He had also just recovered from the shock of being dumbfounded.
After calming himself down, he pondered for a while and said.
"Let's do it again with this modified model."
"Then … I'll go design the experiment process."
"Okay, go ahead."
The mathematical model was ready-made.
The experiment process didn't need to be completely redesigned; it only needed to be slightly modified for the changes in the model.
If they were fast, they wouldn't even have to wait until tomorrow. They could get it done before they got off work.
Qian Zhongming, who had been standing on the side for a long time, was also interested.
He asked, "Is there anything I can help with?"
Professor Wang Qingping quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, we can take care of this small matter ourselves."
Qian Zhongming didn't force him. He nodded and said, "Okay then, if you need any help, tell me … Oh yeah, if the experiment has any results, please be sure to inform me."
Professor Wang Qingping patted his chest and spoke.
"No problem! We should be able to get it done before dark today! "
The modification of the experimental process had begun.
Seeing that Professor Wang Qingping's project team had returned to work, Qian Zhongming didn't bother them anymore. After nodding, he followed Lu Zhou's footsteps and left.
After a busy morning, Sun Yueda and the other researchers finally finished modifying the experimental process before the noon break.
A new round of experiments soon began.
After a series of complex laboratory processes, when the predicted material appeared in the chemical vapor deposition device, all the researchers around the device were stunned by what was happening in front of them.
The experiment was unexpectedly successful!
He had only asked to change a few numbers …
This is insane!
