Chapter 169: Chapter 169

"Follow! We must follow!"

The gray-haired old researcher wiped his glasses and expressed his stance without hesitation.

"The talented are the teachers. Mr. Chu, you have the skills, so I’ll listen to you! But can you explain Celsius’s chain spiral again?"

The young researcher nearby was also very excited:

"Mr. Chu, I’m definitely following! Whatever project you have, just instruct us—since you think highly of me, then I’ll..."

Before he could finish, Chu River lazily interrupted—

"Hold on, don’t flatter yourself. I want you to follow my next project not because I think you have brains, but because I’ve gotten used to you, and I’m too lazy to teach new ones."

Even though, but still.

No need to be so blunt...

In the midst of all the big shots, Hu Sisi, who had been feeling insignificant, suddenly relaxed her shoulders—

Here it comes, here it comes!

A 360-degree no-angle attack from the boss!

Though late, it has arrived!

The unfinished words of the young researcher were stuck in his throat, but no one felt that what was said was wrong—

To put it simply, they were convinced.

And in the corner, the temporary university student raised a trembling hand:

"I’m in my third year, can I apply to join the project?"

Chu River closed his eyes, not picky at all.

"I don’t care what year you are in, as long as you coordinate with the school yourself, as long as you’re not worried about not getting your diploma, anyone willing to follow is welcome."

Anyway, these assistants don’t rely on her for a living, so the more the merrier.

Why do they study so hard?

For knowledge, to better themselves, and for the future.

But now that they are part of this project team, why worry about diplomas or the future? The school can only be supportive.

Besides, even if they don’t support, who knows, years later, when they return with honors, the university that once looked down on them might invite them as honorary professors...

A group of university students exchanged glances and couldn’t help but laugh slyly together, making the scene a bit indecent.

Only then did someone remember another important question.

"Mr. Chu, may I ask, what is the next project?"

Chu River patted Little Yellow’s arm: "Oh, the project this afternoon, you can ask him, all the fundamental course materials are in his hands. I’m giving you a week’s vacation first. Before the project starts, make sure you get the basics solid!"

Everyone looked at Little Yellow with interest.

—He’s just a colleague, then it’s okay. In the entire project team, only Mr. Chu is sharp with words; the others are quite amicable.

Hu Sisi burst into tears.—

Can you blame them for being amicable? Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net

She’s just a graduate student, so unimpressive that in this project team she can only outperform a group of university students working as temps, absolutely not daring to challenge these scientific bigwigs.

A high school graduate, single-handedly lowering the average education level of the entire project team...

Does he dare to speak up?

After all, he has a bit of authority following the big sister in conquering territories all along.

However, at this moment, a slightly authoritative but completely unaware Little Yellow looked up confusedly at the eager scientists’ eyes, then cluelessly glanced at the thick stack of seven notebooks beside him and the simple yet uncomplicated project materials in his hand, his mind inevitably conjuring another question:

—"A week’s vacation, but having to learn so much, isn’t this busier than actual work?"

His sister truly is an old capitalist to the core!

Little Yellow witnessed reality in his heart, while the swarming scientists, upon learning that the next project was mechanical prosthetics, immediately imagined countless feasible projects in their heads.

Not to mention anything else, Hu Sisi was already clutching the materials and screaming wildly:

"I can do it, I can do it, I can do it!!! My Tony, I can..."

The idol’s influence spun her around, and Little Hu seemed to have gone mad.

Speaking of this Iron Man, Chu River couldn’t help but think of all the peripherals that turned up when she first searched for miniature nuclear reactors, and her face turned dark.

So she couldn’t help but ask:

"Hey, does anyone study nuclear physics? Give me a hint, how’s the progress on cold nuclear fusion and miniature nuclear reactors now?"

She hadn’t found this information in the current online resources, but each country’s scientific research capabilities and what they disclose to the public often differ by 1 to 50 years. Chu Fa Da was too lazy to have the assistant breach national defense, so she asked directly.

After all, she now counts as part of the national team.

If they want her to do research, they have to open up some capabilities.

Two senior scientists specializing in nuclear physics in the team immediately pulled a long face.
