I drank to my heart's content last night.
It hurts to wake up early in the morning.
The next day, Lu Zhou got up early with a splitting headache. After washing up, he relied on his strong metabolic function to recover. He went downstairs to the buffet restaurant on the first floor of the hotel and hurriedly ate his breakfast. He then got into the car that was already waiting at the door.
Lu Zhou sat in the back with a yawn. He reached out and pinched his eyebrows.
He asked casually, "What time did I drink until yesterday?"
Wang Peng thought for a while and replied, "Midnight … I didn't expect you to be able to wake up this morning."
Lu Zhou: "It's just a few drinks, why can't I wake up?"
Hearing this, Wang Peng didn't argue. He smiled and said, "… Where are we going?"
Lu Zhou: "ILHCRC headquarters."
"Okay."
Wang Peng set up the navigation with his right hand. He skillfully turned the steering wheel and drove the car onto the road in front of the hotel.
Lu Zhou leaned against the soft seat and was about to take a nap. He suddenly remembered that he drank too much last night, so he coughed awkwardly and spoke.
He coughed awkwardly and said, "I drank a little too much last night. If I said something stupid, just pretend you didn't hear me."
"It's fine, everyone is in a bad mood." Wang Peng, who was holding the steering wheel, smiled and said, "Are you feeling better? Is the unveiling ceremony going to be okay? "
Lu Zhou regained his usual confident expression and spoke with a faint smile.
"What haven't I seen before?"
"It's just a small event, what can go wrong?"
…
Even though it was a small event, it wasn't small at all.
Whether it was the magnificent ILHCRC headquarters building located on the edge of the high-tech zone, or the news vehicles gathered in the parking spaces in front of the main entrance of the headquarters building, they all indicated that the unveiling ceremony was attracting the attention of the world.
A dense crowd gathered in front of the main entrance of the building like an upside-down bowl, surrounding a four to five-meter-tall granite monument draped in red cloth.
There was no red carpet, no balloons floating in the sky, and no firecrackers, but no one doubted the formality of the unveiling ceremony, and no one doubted its influence.
Whether it was scholars concerned about the future of mankind, or people interested in physics, or politicians concerned about the impact of this event on the world …
Whether they were sitting in front of the TV, standing at the scene, or watching the live broadcast on their phones, they couldn't help but slow down their breathing.
Under everyone's gaze and the focus of the cameras, a man in formal attire was standing there.
There was no press release in his hands, only a row of four microphones.
With a light cough, he adjusted the microphone and spoke in a clear and solemn voice.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the experts, scholars, representatives of all parties, journalists, and all the people who pay attention to the progress of physics in the world. To be able to stand here or sit in front of the TV and share this glorious moment with us.
"As the chairman of the ILHCRC and a scholar who shoulders the important task of exploring the future, I am deeply grateful for your enthusiasm, thank you!"
There was a wave of applause from the crowd outside the monument.
Lu Zhou nodded slightly. After the applause subsided a little, he cleared his throat and continued.
"The ILHCRC is an international physics research organization. We are committed to discussing and solving those topics that will affect the future of our civilization.
"It might not be able to help us go further, but it can help us understand ourselves, understand our universe, and understand what laws our world operates on."
"It is an honor to stand here and represent all of us to unveil this glorious moment!"
After that, Lu Zhou turned around and walked to the foot of the monument.
Then, he reached out his hand and grabbed the red silk cloth, yanking it off.
The flowing red cloth fluttered in the air like flowing blood. The majestic calligraphy had carved a line of powerful words on the stone tablet.
[International Lunar Hadron Collider Research Center Headquarters]
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
All of the people's emotions erupted at this moment.
Applause, cheers …
Their voices rose and fell, lingering in the ears!
The researchers at the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who had been working for this moment for almost two years, and all of the engineers who participated in the design of the Lunar Hadron Collider waved their arms excitedly. Some even hugged each other and shed tears of excitement.
They were the ones who advanced the course of history!
It was all of them who had accomplished this feat!
In the face of such great glory, even the Nobel Prize and all the personal honors in the world would be overshadowed.
Before Luo Wenxuan could react, he was pulled into the crowd. His glasses flew into the air and were almost thrown into the sky.
Academician Zhang Wenlong, the chairman of the China Physics Society, stood in the crowd and looked at the red cloth. He couldn't help but tear up.
"This moment is finally here!"
"Yeah." Academician Fang Shaoping, the director of the Institute of Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, took off his glasses and rubbed the corners of his eyes. He then squinted his eyes and looked at the towering stone monument. He said emotionally, "From today on, a new page has been opened in the history of physics in China."
When Academician Zhang Wenlong heard this, he laughed out loud.
"It's not just China's physics community!
"It's time for a new page to be written in the history of physics!"
…
The unveiling ceremony was over.
Lu Zhou bowed slightly and let go of the microphone in his right hand. A group of reporters rushed forward in an instant, reaching out their microphones. They wanted to get a firsthand interview from Lu Zhou through the row of bodyguards.
"Professor Lu Zhou, I'm a reporter from Columbia TV. Can I ask you what you think about the Hadron Collider being a waste of money?"
Lu Zhou: "Life is not just about the present, it should also be about the future. The same is true for our civilization. You should take a long-term view."
"I'm a reporter from BBC! Has the chairman of the ILHCRC been elected through an open vote? Or have you consulted the opinions of the other member states on the procedure? "
Lu Zhou: "About these two questions, I can answer them in one sentence, but I only want to answer you with one sentence, no comment."
Under the escort of a group of security personnel, Lu Zhou finally broke through the heavy encirclement of reporters. He swiped his card and walked into the gate with other ILHCRC staff.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a person in the crowd and raised his eyebrows.
The person seemed to have seen him as well. His expression suddenly changed. He turned around and wanted to slip away, but he heard a chuckle coming from behind.
"Brother Luo!"
"I looked for you for a long time at the unveiling ceremony. Now that the ceremony is over, you're finally here."
(Thank you to the leader of "Black Tiger Vanguard"! My skills are on cooldown. I'm exhausted from the past few days.)
