The first draft of the paper was finally written, but Junxin didn't have time to revise it, because Professor Cheng had already urged him to meet with him for the third time. It didn't take more than three things, so when Junxin finished his thesis, he walked to Professor Cheng's office.

In contrast to Professor Hu's office, Professor Cheng's office is very tidy, with rows of bookshelves on the left and behind them, as well as reference books and some other journals. On the right side of the office are two sofas and a small coffee table, on which are neatly placed several quilts and a teapot.

"Jun is here? But finally time to meet me, an old man? Professor Cheng said kindly when he saw Junxin enter the door.

"I'm sorry!" Junxin grabbed his hair and said with a shy smile, "I was busy with experiments some time ago, and I was busy writing papers during this time, no, as soon as the paper was written, I came to you!" ”

"Sit down!" Professor Cheng came to the sofa and pointed to the empty sofa and said.

"Thank you, Professor Cheng!" Junxin was not polite, thanked him and sat down.

"I've wanted to see you for a long time!" Professor Cheng groaned slightly and said to Junxin. "Lao Hu told me that you are very talented in mathematics. In fact, my concept of mathematics probably stopped at the point of advanced mathematics in college, and I didn't know much about it. So you may be very accomplished, but I don't know and I can't say anything. But then, when you suddenly applied for experimental funding, and it was also a chemistry funding, I became interested in you. ”

"Professor, you've won the prize!" Junxin shook his head, "I should have come to visit you earlier." ”

"Ha, Xiaojun, you are not from the College of Chemistry, I guess this is just a polite visit."

"I really have some questions I want to ask!" Junxin said bluntly. Indeed, in the process of writing his paper on quasicrystal, he referred to a large number of papers, and many of the papers cited by Professor Cheng's name have their name. "Professor Cheng's attainments in materials science are indeed very high, I have read many of your articles, and there are some places that I really need your knowledge of. For example, one of your articles in JMC a few years ago in "......", which is very enlightening for my experiments, but if it appears...... How do you solve this kind of problem? ”

The exchange between Junxin and Professor Cheng is an exchange between scholars, not between students and teachers who are just starting out. Generally speaking, when it comes to a discussion, the conversation between scholars becomes more serious. When Junxin faces these masters, he will always unconsciously begin to enter into academic discussions with them, so as to obtain a relatively equal status of conversation.

Professor Cheng is obviously also a pragmatic professor, so after Junxin raised a question, he also began to enter the state of academic exchange.

Professor Cheng was a member of the Faculty and should have been assigned to the Academy of Engineering according to his work, but for some reasons, he was assigned to the Academy of Sciences. He is the founder of materials science in China. I have participated in most of the projects in China. For example, in the two bombs and one satellite project, Professor Cheng is the person in charge of the materials group, and has made great efforts for the rise of our country.

Professor Cheng graduated from Nanyang College (the predecessor of Shanghai Jiao Tong and Xi'an Jiaotong) with a major in chemistry, and later transferred to Europe to study organic chemistry at the University of Lyon, France, where his supervisor was the discoverer of format reagents, a famous French organic chemist, and a Nobel laureate Green. After completing all his graduate and doctoral studies at the University of Lyon, he has traveled extensively in Europe and the United States, and has been a visiting scholar at Princeton University in the United States, the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, and the University of Heidelberg in Germany. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he returned to China and became a professor at the Faculty of Chemistry of Mizuki University at the invitation of Mizuki University. At the same time, he founded the Institute of Chemical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and served as the deputy director.

It is also because they both studied in France that Professor Cheng and Professor Hu have a good relationship, and the two often chat privately.

Professor Cheng's knowledge is down-to-earth, and the questions asked by Junxin are the ones he has solved, so he naturally answers them quickly, and after a long period of accumulation, Professor Cheng's answers are not limited to the questions raised by Junxin, but give full play to them and expand the level of the problem itself.

If it weren't for the fact that he had queried a lot of information before, Junxin might not have been able to follow Professor Cheng's ideas, but now that there is a lot of information, Junxin can have a heated discussion with Professor Cheng.

“…… Such a solution should be feasible, and I remember that in a recent article in Chemical Abstracts on ...... this problem was elaborated, you can refer to it. ”

"Thank you, Professor Cheng!" Junxin nodded, then wrote his name in his notebook, and finally handed the paper he had prepared to Professor Cheng.

"This is an experiment I completed in Professor Chen's laboratory, although the title is mathematics, but the content should be related to chemistry, and I asked Professor Cheng to correct it."

"Oh, let me see." Professor Cheng was very interested in Junxin's achievements, and he could feel that Junxin had a profound and innovative view on these issues, so he was very interested in a chemistry paper of a student of the Department of Mathematics. happily took the paper handed over by Jun Xin.

The title of the paper "A Mathematical Structure of Matter with a Long Range of Order, but Without Periodicity" is not long, but the smile on Professor Cheng's face has been completely lost in terms of the content of the title of the paper, and has been replaced by a kind of solemnity.

Professor Cheng, who graduated from the University of Lyon, naturally has a high level of knowledge about this topic, and he can instantly perceive that the content of Junxin's paper is a subversion of something, although his major is organic chemistry.

This paper is very long, with more than fifty or sixty pages of mathematical derivation alone, for which Professor Cheng directly skips and only looks at the conclusive part. The other chemistry sections also have nearly 40 pages of content, which is what Professor Cheng has carefully watched.

Time passed bit by bit, and the two hours were gone in a blink of an eye, and Professor Cheng, who was sitting on the sofa, had just finished reading all the experimental parts.

"Jun, this is going to be a bomb!" Professor Cheng said in a solemn tone.

"Hmm!" Jun Xin nodded, "I know, but this is an objective fact. There was no problem with the design or conclusion of the experiment. And the reproducibility of the experiments is completely statistically requirementary, so I don't think that's the case! ”

"Quasicrystal," Professor Cheng muttered the name, "it is indeed a name destined to cause a storm." ”

"So I'd like to hear from you!"

Professor Cheng's fingers tapped on the table, although there were huge waves in his heart, but the number of storms he experienced made him completely quickly suppress the surprise in his heart, and soon made a decision that made him stunned in Junxin's expectations...
