Liu Yi suddenly turned his head and said, "Actually, I think this young man seems to have an answer to this question." He raised his hand and pointed in one direction, and everyone followed it, and what he said turned out to be Chen Tianyu.

Chen Tianyu didn't dodge, he did vaguely know some answers in his heart.

"I see that you have been thoughtful, there is no look of surprise in your eyes, I guess you must have thought about it in a similar way and have received a satisfactory answer, I wonder if there is a deviation in what I said?" Liu Yi actually asked in a rather low manner.

Chen Tianyu thought for a moment before saying: "I don't have any answers, but just like our real situation now, although we have no reputation, we still came here without hesitation, and we don't really care so much about the result...... This may be the answer of our generation. ”

Liu Yi clapped his palm, he really admired this young man's arrogance and sudden understanding.

"Good, good. He said two more in a row.

Liu Yi thought for a moment and continued: "Then I think now should also be the time to tell you about the current situation. You may wonder why such a heavyweight research institute would choose to be located in such a remote mountain village, and the research thing is still the world's top industrial products, in fact, it is very simple: that is, there is a unique heavy metal element in the sea water of Boone - rhenium! Let me briefly popularize science, rhenium is a strategic material, the reason why this metal element has become a necessary material for high-performance aerospace engines, one is high temperature resistance and no deformation, the second is high strength but good plasticity, the third is resistance to severe impact and vibration, similar and has many irreplaceable advantages, mainly used to make single crystal turbine blades of high-performance aerospace engines; at the same time, the reserves of rhenium are extremely scarce, the world's current proven reserves are only about 2,500 tons, and the domestic proven mine rhenium reserves are only 176 tons, it is conceivable that the significance of discovering such a high-rich rhenium sea area as Boone swim; rhenium is an associated metal, and it is very difficult to purify it on the ore, not to mention that it is purified from seawater, and the technology is extremely complicated......" Speaking of this, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh, and then said, "I describe it like this, it may be difficult for you to understand, in other words, the price of rhenium is 40 million tons, and it continues to rise, you probably understand." The crowd was staggered.

"However, due to the technical difficulties of high-yield purification of seawater, the performance of the aerospace engine has not been able to meet international standards, and the rhenium produced in the mine with low purity at that time could not be transported all the way to support us, so more than 20 years ago, the higher authorities officially suspended our special space engine development plan, and retreated to the development of commercial engine systems, so the relevant funds were gradually stopped. At that time, the development of the core engine in charge of me was in the critical stage, and the purification output was also increasing day by day. It was at this juncture that my mentor never came back during a routine experiment...... All my dreams were left to me without warning. ”

The crowd was silent, as if listening to a fantasy.

Liu Yi continued: "I am a person who pursues the ultimate, I am both unwilling and hot-blooded, and I vowed to complete this work and fulfill their last wishes, so I came up with a way to be clever. I thought about secretly allocating some funds from the factory to continue my research, after all, the factory had benefited a lot from using our patents over the years. …… I remember that the factory director at that time was surnamed Zhong, who had a good personal relationship with me, and was also very supportive and recognized our work, and was also confident in the successful development of special engines, so he allocated 10% of the factory's income every year to this core business of the institute. ”

Liu Yi's thoughts seemed to go back to many years ago, and he said slowly: "I am very grateful to him, although this money is not enough, but it is already the maximum capacity of the factory, after all, the workers under him still have to eat and raise children." As for the insufficient part of the expenditure, we had to cut down on food and clothing, and pulled out a few copper plates from between our teeth to reluctantly continue to tackle key problems. Speaking of the support of the 6914 factory, a grant is a long ten years......"

Chen Tianyu suddenly answered: "So, the core technology of special engines has been broken through more than ten years ago?"

Liu Yi shook his head and sighed: "If the core technology is so easy to master, then the previous generations would have achieved fame a long time ago, but often scientific research is like this, there is such a hurdle, so that several generations cannot cross." Ten years is a very short time for us, and our plan is to develop it in 30 years. ”

Chen Tianyu nodded and said that he understood, he had also invented a polymer wireless tracker, and knew the mystery and difficulty of research and development.

Ten years later, when the director of the factory resigned, the new director and secretary of the factory resolutely disagreed to continue to allocate funds for us, and the workers were also in a mood, feeling that it was a bottomless pit to spend this money. In fact, they also make a lot of sense, why should they bear these additional R&D expenses?...... So the funding was completely gone, and the research was stopped. ”

Chen Tianyu was puzzled: "But I think you seem to have successfully developed it?"

Liu Yi's face was filled with a trace of bitterness, and he smiled bitterly: "At noon one day about five years later, a person came to the door, and he said that if I still want to continue to develop special engines, then there is another way. ”

Li Yiting finally came to his senses: "I understand, he must have said that funds can be allocated from other research projects to support research." ”

Liu Yi nodded helplessly: "Needless to say, it's actually a disguised arbitrage of funds, or embezzlement of public funds." ”

Li Yiting said: "But this is also a serious study, how can it be called fraudulent funding? Or it seems that it is not impossible to ask for the resumption of this research work in the last report." ”

Liu Yi said with a wry smile: "Times have changed, and the technology of high-yield seawater purification has long been repeatedly demonstrated by international experts that it is impossible to achieve; we are not sure of winning, how should this report be written, let alone ...... presented?"

Everyone couldn't help but snort.

Liu Yi suddenly smiled, he said: "But I still submitted, knowing that it would not be approved, not only did I insist on applying for restart, but in the following ten years, I also repeatedly submitted a variety of plans, of course, the result is the same, but my special engine development has started again." I eventually took this man's advice and spent money in disguise......"

He continued: "But I was still so naïve that I forgot an unbreakable truth. ”

Chen Tianyu said: "Maybe that's where the root of people's inferiority lies." ”

Liu Yi bowed his head and said: "No one will do things without a purpose, of course this person is no exception, the reason why he helped me is naturally because he has a plan." But I was only excited at the time, but I didn't have time to think about it, as long as I could do research, it seemed that it would be okay to play the sidelines......"

"At the beginning, I transferred funds from small projects, then gradually became large projects, and finally became key projects, and at the craziest time, all the funds for all projects were invested in the research and development of core technologies...... At the same time, I had to take this person's advice, and also helped him cheat various projects under various names, make false R&D reports, and then pass the review of the regulatory authorities, and finally produce worthless scrap iron. Of course, I can also receive his dividends, which will be subsidized into the bottomless pit of core project research and development. ”

Chen Tianyu was embarrassed, he now basically grasped the mystery of the whole thing, and probably knew who this person in Liu Yi's mouth was.

Li Yiting said with emotion: "I'm afraid this is a vicious circle, unless the special engine is thoroughly researched and successful, it will continue to circulate forever......"

"Thank you so much!" Liu Yi suddenly became excited, he saw that everyone didn't understand, and explained: "It is your arrival that inexplicably stimulates my fighting spirit, I know that as long as the police are aware of this secret matter and do their best to investigate, then it is not difficult to find the mystery in it." The opportunity is fleeting, and if it doesn't work, it will be benevolent......"

He laughed happily, rejoicing from the bottom of his heart: "You also saw it yesterday, and I actually succeeded like this." It's really providential...... You have to be in such a hurry to jump off the wall, even if the teacher is so talented, he would not have thought of such a coincidental result......"

Liu Yi calmly told these inside stories, and was immediately relieved, he took the initiative to stretch out his thin and close hands, indicating that he had finished speaking, and tortured him away.

No one moved, and their hearts were so heavy that they were a little overwhelmed.

In the end, it was Chen Tianyu who said loudly: "I'm sorry, we are not police, and we have no power to arrest you." ”

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Who says you don't have the power to arrest?" a very unfamiliar voice came from outside the door, low but full of majesty.

The door was pushed open, and three people entered, one middle-aged and two young men.

Liu Zichen was surprised: "Mingyue, Shengyang! You are finally here...... The two young people are indeed Shen Mingyue, the editor-in-chief of the micro-alliance website, and Gao Shengyang, a returnee lawyer (another important figure in Beiting, the victim who was rescued by Li Yiting in the false accusation case back then).

The other one was unknown to anyone.

The man didn't pay attention to the others, but walked straight to Liu Yi, who was sitting, and Liu Yi didn't know why, so he stood up tremblingly.

Suddenly, this person eagerly grasped Liu Yi's wrinkled hands, and said excitedly, "Senior brother, I have made you suffer." ”

This bloody plot not only confused everyone in the room, but Liu Yi himself was also confused by the second monk, and he really couldn't remember when there was such a junior brother.

This person looked at everyone stunned, and laughed: "Let me introduce myself first, I am Yu Xianmin, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, Senior Brother Liu, don't you remember me?"

Liu Yi racked his brains and stood stiff for a long time, and finally remembered that this was a student of his mentor Meng Tianyuan, and he had also taken a photo a long time ago, how could he remember.

Director Yu politely invited Liu Yi to sit down, and then waved his hand for the others to sit down as well.

"According to the instructions of the superiors, we must do our best to protect the country's scientific researchers, and some problems left over from history do not have to be settled after the autumn. …… At that time, the country was too poor and weak, and it was inevitable that there would be mistakes and mistakes in the system, but now that society has progressed and the legal system is much more sound, how can we still let our predecessors who are concentrating on their careers and seeking prospects for the country be wronged? He gently patted Liu Yi's trembling hands with his hand to express comfort.

The gray-haired Liu Yi wept.

Director Yu took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of Liu Yi's eyes, and his eyes were a little red.

Everyone's mood was extremely heavy at this time, but they were also very happy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The silence lasted for a long time, but it was impossible to be silent forever.

After all, this is something to be happy about.

Therefore, the old academician Liu Yi first came back to his senses, and he said: "If I am bent on the public, then there is a person who is bent on selfishness, if you don't arrest me, how can you arrest him? ”

Director Yu shook his head: "Mr. Liu, don't worry, we know how to deal with it." ”

Liu Yi nodded with a little comfort.

Li Yiting said suddenly: "It's better to be like this, Mr. Liu, you can be wronged, it's better to deign to be a tainted witness, and then contribute to this case." ”

What a smart man!" Director Yu nodded approvingly in approval.

Liu Yi naturally would not object, but Li Yiting then said: "Since Mr. Liu is now a tainted witness, then you need to answer me two questions." ”

Liu Yi looked at him suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

Li Yiting said: "We have two questions that Mr. Liu needs to answer. The first question is, what is the relationship between technician Meng Biao and you?"

Liu Yi suddenly sighed lightly: "You may mistakenly think that Meng Biao may have something to do with me or my mentor Meng Tianyuan, but in fact, he was just an ordinary technician recruited through formal channels...... However, Xiao Meng is indeed a rare genius, and it can be said without shying away that without him, it would be impossible to develop a special engine. ”

Li Yiting and Chen Tianyu glanced at each other, very surprised.

Without hesitation, Li Yiting quickly took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Liu Yi.

"Mr. Liu, do you recognize this person?"

Liu Yi took it and looked at it carefully, and finally shook his head helplessly, saying that he didn't know.

Li Yiting did not give up, and he once again drew a huge black mole on his cheek with a pencil.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yi's eyes suddenly lit up this time, and he was surprised: "Could it be him!"

Liu Yi said a person's name and identity, and everyone was excited.
