The Three Mile Island nuclear accident caused a lot of turmoil, and the accident investigation showed that more than half of the reactor core melted down, and the radioactive gas produced by 2.5 million curies and 16 curies of radioactive iodine were emitted into the atmosphere, so although there were no casualties and large-scale environmental pollution, hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets to protest since the accident.

"Some experts estimate that it will take a total of $1 billion and a lot of time to eliminate the local nuclear contamination—"

Stuffing the last two dumplings into his mouth, Zheng Jianguo's gaze swept over the capitalized $1 billion, and he had already remembered some data in his memory with the help of the news broadcast, did the Soviets spend 100 billion or 200 billion in order to deal with the Chernobyl incident?

Watching the news to find memories is Zheng Jianguo's favorite thing to do at present, because often the appearance of certain news and pictures can cause pictures that sleep in his mind to the point that he doesn't remember, but in his last life, as one of the countless bottoms, he didn't care about this secret problem in his previous life.

The reason why I remember this is that I was disgusted by the domestic anti-Japanese drama and came into contact with American dramas, especially when I found a new door in some medical dramas, as for this number, I still don't know which drama I saw it from.

At this time, as the eight or nine o'clock in prime time passed, some less important news began to appear on the news, celebrity gossip and anecdotes were piled up at this time, and even the lion dance and dragon dance of the Chinese New Year were released, and the host also focused on explaining the difference between the New Year and Christmas, which can be regarded as a popular science knowledge for most Americans.

After washing the pots and pans at this time, Zheng Jianguo returned to the TV and picked up the textbook and started reading, the Spring Festival is the past for him, last year's harvest is mainly focused on money, and academically he is still gnawing at the old book.

And this year's harvest depends on the 2nd stage of the exam, if it passes, there may be something new, such as the pathogenic mechanism of Helicobacter - if it can be done, you can consider updating the C13 breath method.

After a year of study last year, Zheng Jianguo is no longer an ignorant teenager before going abroad, but a researcher who has received the most scientific and formal education.

The learning method is in hand, Zheng Jianguo also knows that he thought too simple about Helicobacter and the Nobel Prize before, and if you want people to pay attention to this pathogenicity, you need a huge base, and subject to the detection methods and costs at this stage, the fastest award can be won in ten years.

If the testing methods can be updated and the cost can be reduced, it will be a great blessing for countless patients, so that the increase in the number of people tested will inevitably consolidate his previous thesis, even if it is a statistical verification of the probability of infection causing cancer and non-infection causing cancer, it can be regarded as a victory.

And once this scientific conclusion is reached, then the Nobel Prize beckons to him, which is why Zheng Jianguo recently forgot to sleep and eat to study, and the Nobel Prize trip began with back pathology?

"Suzu—"

The piercing phone rang, Zheng Jianguo glanced at the phone but didn't bother to move, but it was different from the New Year's call imagined in his mind, as the answering machine turned on, Professor Fisher's voice came: "Hi, Zheng, I'm Fisher, the school received a special invitation from the Physics Society today, inviting you to attend the March meeting of the American Physical Society in 1980, the time is March 27-31, 1980 for four days, you confirm whether the itinerary is allowed to participate, and then call me back." ”

Looking up at the transponder that had been turned off, Zheng Jianguo knew that he was going to attend this meeting, which did not mean that he had to attend because it was the American Physical Society, but that the person who called him to inform him was Fisher, not other school secretaries or Ulrika and others.

Fisher was neither high nor low in the solid state physics academic at Harvard School, and his promotion to full professor at Harvard University was not because of how brilliant his academic research was, after all, as the world's top university, the Nobel laureates in the physics department of Harvard University could not be counted with two slaps, but this professor has worked at Harvard University for 35 years, and it can be said that most of his life has been dedicated to the school.

After all, in the physics laboratory of Harvard University, Zheng Jianguo's research content is not so much research, but rather learning, learning from other doctors, postdoctoral fellows, Professor Fisher and others.

A person who participates in research while studying is qualified to write a paper, and can also be the first author to share the results and glory with his boss, which has to be too good a relationship in any research project.

Of course, maybe this is because Zheng Jianguo and Thomas opened up the research field of atomic-scale graphite layers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Harvard University, which is Zheng Jianguo's official owner, had not attracted him to the laboratory for focused training, for example, if the author of the paper was ranked above the second author for the reason of his study, it would have caused him to rebound and then cause an academic dispute, which is also conceivable.

However, Fisher, who represents Harvard University, did not do that, whether he had this idea of blackness or not before it became a fact, Zheng Jianguo was still grateful to this professor in his heart, and he was not as shameless as Ye Minde's enthusiasm for himself but not as shameless as Professor Kong.

That's enough!

The full name of the March meeting of the American Physical Society is APS March Meeting, because the organizer is the American Physical Society, so in the field of solid state physics and even in the entire field of physics, it is one of the top international academic conferences today, and Fisher called him to find him in person, that is, he was preparing to take him to this conference to brush up on his presence.

Zheng Jianguo is not a simple student, and his decades of experience have given him a deeper understanding of academics after experiencing the incident between Professor Kong and Nong Shaoshan, after all, he remembers that he didn't know who said that where there are people, there will be paste.

In the past 1979, there were two academic hotspots around the world, one was the Helicobacter pylori found by Zheng Jianguo in the stomach, and the other was the atomic-level graphite layer he tore out, and the reason why the name has not been changed is because it has not yet waited for the right time and place.

The former was renamed Helicobacter pylori a year after he found out, but it was renamed Helicobacter pylori because this colony mostly occurs in the pyloric site, but it has not been recognized by the whole world, and it is still called gastric pylori or gastroenteropathy pylori in the last two papers that need to be reviewed.

Of course, Zheng Jianguo is not in a hurry, because the world has not yet begun to pay attention to this thing, and the latter's atomic-level graphite layer is because the discovery time is too short, and it has only been a year to round off the head and tail, and you can let it go if you change the name or something.

Now there are not many people in the world who study these two hot fields, and the latter, which has subverted the traditional perception of the physics community, has attracted enough attention from the academic community, so the meaning behind this year's invitation is self-evident, and physicists around the world will definitely be willing to eat this big melon: MIT VS Harvard University?

Of course, this situation will only happen if Zheng Jianguo does not go, aside from him to talk about the level of the two sides in the field of atomic-level graphite layer, it is a bit of a half-catty taste, the former found it is true, but the latter first studied the whole number of Hole effect, but if he didn't find it, it was naturally impossible to study it-

Zheng Jianguo decided to go in an instant, even if he was to give the school platform, he had to show up, not to mention that he originally liked the feeling of standing on the stage and listening to the applause of the strong, of course, participating in a meeting of this level requires careful preparation.

Memories of this flashed in his mind, and Zheng Jianguo also saw the time on TV, and then went to the phone to call Fisher, but after he said that he wanted to participate, he heard a voice from the microphone: " This invitation is not for you personally, but for the atomic graphite layer laboratory in our school, and this meeting is a private meeting that does not accept applications, and the participants are all key members of the European physical societies, considering that you are still a student, so I will give you an invitation to join the special member——"

"What standards are you going to make?"

Because he had only participated in the formulation of the testing standards for Helicobacter, the first idea that popped up in Zheng Jianguo's mind was standardization, but even with his memory decades later, he didn't understand how this graphene standard was formulated?

Is it a technique of tearing the tape? or a posture?

Of course, this thought only flashed in his mind, and Zheng Jianguo was distracted by another special member, he was a special director of the American Society of Gastroenterology, and now he is a special member of the American Physical Society, but behind it is a reflection of the current international academic presence of the Republic -

Now I'm afraid that the domestic ones are gnawing on the journals to catch up with the schedule, right?

After chatting with Fisher for a few more sentences, Zheng Jianguo put down the phone and dialed home, it's more than eleven o'clock at this time, Dad should come back after the New Year, right?

It turned out that Zheng Jianguo thought too simply, and the phone was quickly connected, and a familiar voice came: "Crooked-"

"Mother, my father hasn't come back yet?"

Hearing the old lady's voice, Zheng Jianguo didn't stop after asking, Du Xiaomei had already spoken: "I don't know where to go, why don't you tell me something, and I'll tell him again?"

"It's nothing, it's the New Year's greetings, then you can help me say hello to my father, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep later-"

Zheng Jianguo is thinking that since the phone has been installed at home, then he should usually call more at home, especially now that he is not short of money, others can not call in order to save money, he has never been out of the door so far in his previous life, but he didn't rely on coffee to refresh himself today, so it is likely that he will fall asleep when he looks at the book, so he told him on the phone.

"You gave your father such a big face, he still has to show off more outside, and his son can't find him when he calls him-"

Du Xiaomei said a few words in her throat, and then obviously remembered that there were Zheng Donghua and Yang Na and others in the courtyard next to her, so she quickly closed her voice: "Then don't wait for him, you should go to bed or go to bed early, go to bed early to have the energy to study hard every day, remember to listen to the teacher." ”

The old lady's advice was as simple and unpretentious as ever, thinking that you have to listen to the teacher's words if you study hard every day, Zheng Jianguo could only nod and answer: "Okay, I hung up the phone, you have been tired for the past two days, pay attention to rest." ”

"I'm so tired that I'm not tired, your sister does all the work, but next year I may have to do it with your father-"

Du Xiaomei remembered that Zheng Qiuhua and Zheng Donghua helped get it these days, and after this year, the two of them got married and went to school, so when the time came, it was likely that she and Zheng Fugui would be left in the family, and then she remembered that Zheng Jianguo was going to hang up the phone, and she couldn't help but quickly change her words: "Okay, hang up." ”

"Next year, why don't you and your father come out for the New Year this year, come to me for the New Year together. ”

Zheng Jianguo subconsciously spoke, but then remembered that the two old people were not familiar with the place where they were in the United States, and they were afraid that they would not be able to go out if they wanted to visit Zheng Fugui like this, and they couldn't understand the newspapers when they watched TV, except for whether they understood or not.

And if he passes the exam next month, he will immediately have to follow the medical students to the hospital for an internship, then at the end of the year, he is likely to be busy with the same as Yang Nasara and them last year, and Du Xiaomei's voice came from the microphone: "Don't go, I'll make trouble for you after I pass, and I can't understand your father if I talk to foreigners, and your father and I can't understand it, and your father will suffocate to death when I go, and his showmanship can't understand, oh, your father is back, Zheng Fugui, your son's phone, I've been looking for you twice." ”

The voice in the microphone changed from clear to faint, Zheng Jianguo didn't expect the old lady to call his father like this, obviously his temper was completely different from what he remembered, Zheng Fugui's voice soon came: "Grasshopper, Jianguo?"

"Happy New Year, Dad. ”

The corners of Zheng Jianguo's mouth tugged at a smile, and Zheng Fugui's voice suddenly became louder: "Happy and happy, I'm very happy now, and you, too, happy, right?" That Daga-Li Tie is also here, and now he is kowtowing, can you say a few words to him?"

Is this to say that you also have a good New Year?

The appearance of his father came to mind, Zheng Jianguo didn't expect his father to broadcast Li Tie's New Year's greetings to him, so he thought about it and didn't have anything to say to this father, he couldn't interfere in the affairs of the third sister and couldn't assign them, and the affairs of the fourth sister were also arranged.

It's impossible to ask in the microphone that you are satisfied with the daughter-in-law I found for you, so Zheng Jianguo quickly changed his words and said, "Okay, you let Li Tie take the phone." ”

"Li Tie, Jianguo's phone. ”

Zheng Fugui's voice came faintly, and Zheng Jianguo's mind flashed in his mind when his father shouted that this fat boy was almost shouting the word Da Gazi, he didn't expect that Li Tie, who answered the phone, also became a little blushing because he was almost called out by this nickname: "Jianguo, happy New Year." ”
