Outside the large conference room, Wang Zhiwei stopped, stretched out his hand to sort out the specially changed plaid shirt and casual suit, the silver-white conference room door has a good sound insulation effect, and he can't hear any sound inside, he knows that the result of this report will directly affect the next work of the entire R&D team, so although he is confident, he will inevitably be a little nervous before he enters the field.

The six months of working in Infinite Future Company have been a dream journey full of surprises for him. In the career planning he had imagined countless times, he thought that the major research institutes in China were the places he would go after returning to China, and he never thought that he could meet such a company in China.

Previously, he studied aerospace at an Ivy League university in the United States, and studied for a master's and doctorate degree with a very famous professor of aerospace dynamics in the United States, with excellent grades. But the more I read the back, the more I felt the blatant discrimination, and the vast majority of companies related to the professional field do not recruit non-American employees, even if it is an internship, they do not give any opportunities.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that the new R&D project that his mentor had taken over, which was also his professional direction, did not let him join. The tutor explained to him, "I am very sorry, Wang, you are a very good student, but this program has confidentiality requirements and does not accept international students. ”

Science knows no borders, but scientists have nationalities. Wang Zhiwei profoundly understood the meaning of this sentence. Just when he was at his lowest, a staff member from Infinite Future Company appeared in front of him and invited him to join the company. The generous treatment is not what he likes the most, the key is that the other party took out a stack of technical information, which gave him a big surprise, and the information that came to an abrupt end in the key place also whetted his appetite. After repeated thinking, Wang Zhiwei gave up continuing to study for a doctorate, and the previous discriminatory treatment made him feel that there was no need to continue his studies, so he unexpectedly chose to join Infinite Future.

Everything after that is full of unreality. He and more than 20 other young scholars, all of whom are Chinese nationals — the result of the company's recruitment of Chinese talents from the world's top universities through the Thousand Talents Program, settled in the company's new headquarters in Yidong, and the experimental conditions exceeded everyone's expectations — the equipment that the company promised when recruiting was available, and the equipment not mentioned was also available, and many of the equipment was the core and key equipment even in the most advanced laboratories in the United States.

In order to recruit the right talents, the company spared no effort, because the headquarters was not fully completed, the guaranteed test device could not be visited on the spot, so with the approval of Chen Wenhao, according to each person's professional direction, the corresponding test device was written in the contract, and guaranteed to be in place as scheduled, otherwise the candidate could immediately terminate the contract, and get hundreds of thousands of settling-in fees and an apartment in Jianghai City paid in advance free of charge. To this end, Chen Wenhao separately set aside 5 billion yuan for the order of R&D equipment.

With this, many young scholars have been impressed, for young scholars who have just started their academic careers, personal treatment is not the first, but a first-class scientific research environment.

The bigger weight is the technical information that the company provides to these young scholars according to each person's different profession after signing the employment contract and a lot of strict confidentiality agreements. This part of the information naturally comes from alien black technology, and Chen Wenhao's results after screening and sorting are not only in line with the company's development strategic direction, but also open a new window for young scholars to see a beautiful new world.

Subsequently, these young scholars were divided into different types of large project groups according to their specialties. Wang Zhiwei's project team is in the direction of electric propulsion technology, and there are 5 people in this project team, including him. The operation mode of the project team is similar to that of a small and medium-sized scientific laboratory or a research group in a large laboratory, but the difference is that according to the standards of a traditional laboratory, the scientist who controls the laboratory is responsible for the general direction of the research project, as well as the application and allocation of R&D funds, and is the soul of the person. In this case, the general direction and stage goals of R&D are specified by the company, and the funds are abundant, and reasonable requirements can be met quickly. More importantly, in the designated research direction, the company can always provide the necessary scientific and technological information, Wang Zhiwei sometimes even feels that their main work is more like learning and mastering the theory provided by the company, and then further verification and play.

There are several similar project groups, and spacecraft is the research content of one of them. With the official production of the spacecraft, the airworthiness certificate obtained, and the hot sellers, the other project teams were a little unable to sit still, and the originally relaxed research atmosphere significantly accelerated the pace, at least Wang Zhiwei found that the other project team members on the same floor were also getting off work later and later.

Everyone is about the same age, basically from the world's major universities, and they are companies that have entered at about the same time, so there is naturally a comparative psychology. At the same starting point, people have made a name for themselves and helped the company's products sell well, although the company has not urged, but they have to hurry up. People who can be admitted to the world's top universities with their own abilities and plan to devote themselves to scientific research for the rest of their lives cannot get to this point without a sense of competition and hard work. In particular, they choose enterprises, and they all understand the simple truth: enterprises that do not create profits cannot maintain R&D investment for a long time.

For the members of the electric propulsion technology project team, the recent days have been busy but happy, because their work in the past six months has been harvested, and they are about to produce phased results. During this period of time, Wang Zhiwei has become the recognized team leader of the project team because of his strong professional ability and communication skills, so the work of reporting and explaining the phased results to the company and striving for more resource support by the way fell on his head.

Wang Zhiwei took two deep breaths, calmed down, exchanged encouraging glances with other members of the project team, and resolutely took the lead in pushing open the door of the conference room. Chen Wenhao and some of the company's executives were already waiting inside, and when they came in, Chen Wenhao took the lead in standing up to greet them. This kind of respect is a spring breeze, and for intellectuals, it is sometimes more valuable than material rewards.

Chen Wenhao looked at the group of scientific researchers in front of him, his heart was full of pride, through a large investment, the company has so far invited hundreds of professional and technical personnel of all kinds to fill the company's various professional positions, and there is enough knowledge and ability to engage in high-end research and development work, that is, to be able to digest alien science and technology data, and finally screen out more than 20 people, he can call everyone's name.

The selected extraterrestrial science and technology data is more of a flash of inspiration for the existing theoretical system of the earth, as well as the progress of production technology and materials, which determines the company's long-term research and development direction, so Chen Wenhao does not need a scientific research expert of the level of discipline leader and discipline leader, of course, such a big bull is basically impossible to choose a private company to work. What he needs is seedlings with potential, and with alien technology in hand, he can fully enjoy the process of irrigating seedlings into big trees.

Electric propulsion technology is a technology that he values very much, if it can be absorbed and digested by his own scientific research team, the company's product line can add new members, and on the basis of the spacecraft, it will be more "tall".

After talking with the R&D personnel for a while and inquiring about the work and life, Chen Wenhao turned the topic back to the topic, "Next, please ask Researcher Wang to introduce the latest progress of the electric propulsion project, you don't need to record it, everything said today belongs to the company's top secret." ”
