"It turns out that the center has been playing a big game of chess all along. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yuan Haochen said with emotion.

"This Mars scientific exploration operation has made a major discovery, which has made the country more aware of the seriousness of the age fault in the interstellar exploration alliance of Chinese scientists."

The chairman pondered for a moment, and Yuan Haochen didn't know whether to bother him.

After about half a minute, the chairman came back to his senses, looked at Yuan Haochen with a torch in his eyes, and said, "In order to ensure our voice in the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, the country will start to make efforts to break the current unfavorable situation. Our purpose is not to get involved in rights, but to better ensure that the interests of the Chinese nation will not be harmed at a critical moment. ”

In the Chairman's view, although the Interstellar Exploration Alliance is an independent organization with no political stance, it will be affected to a greater or lesser extent by being in the whirlpool of competition between major political blocs over time. The United Nations is a case in point.

"I don't know if when human society and civilization are highly developed, will it be possible to eliminate the barriers between countries and nations, and finally make the entire human society one."

Yuan Haochen suddenly had such an idea in his heart, and it should be as difficult as building a utopian society to achieve such a goal.

"Chairman, please rest assured that although my ability is limited, I will definitely do my best to safeguard the interests of the country and the nation."

"Good!" The chairman looked at Yuan Haochen and nodded with satisfaction, "The country does not want to violate the program agreement and break the bottom line of the existence of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, because only in this way can the Interstellar Exploration Alliance operate more efficiently and lead mankind out of the predicament." The state does not need you to be unfair in your work, but only hopes that the interests of the Chinese nation will not be harmed at a critical moment. ”

"Rest assured, President, although science knows no borders, scientists have nationality." Yuan Haochen said.

"You're quite right. It's a pity that many young scientists now choose to leave their homeland and join other countries after they have become famous......"

After listening to the chairman's words, Yuan Haochen felt complicated in his heart.

In fact, just after he discovered the meteorite, he had many opportunities to emigrate, but he refused them all.

"Given your consistently good performance, the state should help you grow faster, both in public and private." The Chairman said meaningfully.

"Thank you for the support of the state!"

Yuan Haochen naturally knew that the specific intention of the chairman's last remarks should be related to the "efforts to break the current unfavorable situation" he mentioned earlier.

"The future of the motherland, the future of the nation, and the future of mankind are all pinned on you outstanding young people."

The Chair's eyes were full of approval and expectation.

......

After bidding farewell to the chairman, Yuan Haochen returned to the small village at the foot of the source of the Sun Moon Creek.

Although Yuan Haochen has only been home for nearly two years, in fact, he has not spoken to his parents for nearly 2,000 years.

As the distance from home became closer and closer, Yuan Haochen became more and more full of mixed feelings and excitement.

At this moment, perhaps his parents were already waiting for him to return at the door of the house.

Perhaps my mother had carefully prepared a table full of steaming home-cooked dishes.

Those extremely familiar places were constantly coming to Yuan Haochen's mind.

The gurgling, meandering Sun Moon Stream,

That kind old house built along the river,

The familiar eaves, the warm street lamps.

On the days when I leave home, the scenery of my hometown always extends to my thoughts the moment I close my eyes.

It is as touching as a clear spring.

A grass and a tree in my hometown,

Carrying the former Chen,

Blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, green water,

The lingering mist, the endless stream,

It will always be a beautiful picture and treasure it in his memory.

......

A month later.

Yuan Haochen took advantage of the last two days of the holiday to fly to Mengjin County, Luoyang, Henan.

On a desolate hillside, the local people call it Banzuka.

The monuments erected in the early years are long gone, and they are replaced by marble tombstones that have been renovated by modern descendants.

Yuan Haochen came to the inconspicuous grave in front of him, and stood silently, without saying a word.

After a long time, Yuan Haochen placed a bouquet of flowers in front of the stele, and then buried a strand of woman's long hair in the barren soil under his feet.

Fulfilling his wish, Yuan Haochen turned around and left without stopping.

Far away, beyond the boundless sky, there is a deep hidden ideal of Yuan Haochen.

......

Back at the Pacific base of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, Yuan Haochen walked directly to his office.

"Goethe, I'm back." Yuan Haochen opened his mouth to greet as soon as he pushed the door.

"It seems that after this vacation, you are in a good mood." Old Goethe greeted him with a smile.

"Do you want me to give you a day off?"

"Oh, thank you very much, but I'm old and I really don't know where to go."

"Well, if I have a chance in the future, I'll take you with me."

"That's so thankful."

"Is there any work that I have to deal with in a hurry during this time away?" Yuan Haochen asked.

"There's really something I want to inform you, Dean Frank told you to go look for him as soon as you get back." Old Goethe said after brushing his thoughts.

"Frank, Dean?" Yuan Haochen was stunned, looking like he didn't understand the situation.

"Yes, Mr. Frank has been promoted to the head of the Institute of Astrophysics during your sabbatical. He's such a young man! Old Goethe explained to Hara.

"What about Dean Watt?" Yuan Haochen continued to ask the most questions.

"Mr. Watt is now the commander of the science team!" Goethe Sr. always had a smile on his face.

"Don't tell me Commander Chris has been promoted."

"You're absolutely right, Commander Chris has now been promoted to Deputy Commander of the IEA's Pacific Base."

"What about Deputy Commander Carter? Now a base commander? Yuan Haochen looked at old Goethe curiously.

"Oh no, Mr. Carter is retired." Old Goethe shook his head, "The base commander is mysterious, as if he never appeared. ”

"I see, when I leave, the personnel of the base have changed a lot."

Hara also remembered the conversation Watt and Frank had with him at a nursing home in the Pacific islands.

"Isn't it!" Old Goethe replied.

"Please help me pack these belongings, and I'll go to Frank's first. By the way, Goethe, this is a gift I brought to you. ”

"Thank you so much."

It seems that Goethe did not know that he was about to be promoted. This time I went to see Frank, most of it had something to do with his promotion. ”

Yuan Haochen thought about it again, pushed open the door, and walked in the direction of the dean's office...... (To be continued.) )
