To verify the quality of those articles, Han Jinyu quietly asked a few professors with whom he has good relationships to evaluate so of its content, and the result was surprisingly exaggerated. Each of those professors kept asking him where on earth he had obtained these research results.
It was at this point that Han Jinyu truly believed that Zhang nglong's friends indeed possessed such capabilities; these professors, who were in their fifties, sixties, or even seventies and eighties, seed as ignorant as children in front of these young people.
Having passed Han Jinyu's scrutiny, the rest was rely a formality. Each of them was given the title of an honorary professor at Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, but their job was not to teach the students; instead, they were to lecture the professors at the school!
As the cool breeze of late September signaled the end of the month, Zhang nglong, having completed the task assigned by Han Jinyu, was utterly free. His plan for the next three years was simply to enjoy life, and then wait to receive his diploma.
Of course, he might consider pursuing a doctorate, but given his current achievents, he was more than qualified to be a professor. Going for a doctorate would be nothing more than a formality.
"Ah, the days of not showing off do feel as lonely as snow," Zhang nglong sighed, looking out at the scenery outside the villa.
Although he was free, Lu Yiyao still had classes. When she went to class, Zhang nglong had to find his own fun, which basically ant playing gas or singing with Wang Ling and others. It was rather bland, to say the least.
However, on this particular day, Zhang nglong did receive a call from Elder Zhou, who usually had a reason for visiting—it was rare for him to show up without one. He wondered what it was this ti.
"Elder Zhou, what's up? Missed
after a few days?" Zhang nglong asked.
"Miss my ass!" Elder Zhou said, "I have two things to tell you. First, you saved Old Guo a while back, and the higher-ups have given you quite the comndation. You should keep up the good work."
"It was just a passing effort," Zhang nglong replied, "And the second thing?"
"The second matter is interesting; it all depends on whether you are interested or not."
"Co on, spill it. Don't keep
hanging!" urged Zhang nglong.
"Tomorrow, our old neighbors, Kaibong and Qingqiu, are holding a joint military technology exhibition, touted as a historic friendly exchange."
"Oh?" Zhang nglong imdiately smiled, "Aren't those two always at loggerheads? Their historical grudges are so deep, fighting a war would make more sense than this."
"Being as smart as you are, you must have guessed it."
"Let
guess, the Russians are behind this, right?"
"Hit the nail on the head!" Elder Zhou declared, "They are getting restless because we Huaxia have been cracking mathematical problems, winning the Nobel Prize in Physics, and making big breakthroughs in the chip industry. In a few days, it will be our National Day, and we have a military parade coming up."
"So they want to show off their military equipnt before our parade," Zhang nglong chuckled, "If our current military equipnt isn't as good as theirs, it'll be quite an embarrassnt. But it seems like they've miscalculated."
"Yes!" Elder Zhou suddenly laughed, "They'd never guess in a million years the wonderful things you've provided us."
"How's the research and developnt coming along?"
"What R&D?" Elder Zhou said pragmatically, "You've finished the developnt for us. If they can't get it right from the design and theory diagrams, then they're pretty useless. We've already completed a few prototypes by now. Of course, the quantity isn't great, but it's definitely enough for a demonstration."
"Which ones?"
"Three sixth-generation fighter jets have been completed. They're not only equipped with distinctive Artificial Intelligence but also feature an Anti-gravity Engine and a controllable nuclear fusion Energy reactor. Plus, they're ard with chanical Particle Cannons. Also, we recently launched a tactical satellite equipped with a gravity gun. In theory, it can conduct strategic strikes on any area in the world at any ti!"
"Aweso, that was quick!" Zhang nglong originally thought that in these few months they might have managed to produce a single sixth-generation fighter jet, so he was quite surprised to hear they had accomplished so much more.
"But it's exhausted a few Academicians. They were so enthusiastic about their work that you couldn't pry them away – all thanks to you, young man!"
"How can you bla ?" Zhang nglong imdiately showed a wronged expression, "At worst, I'll just give you a few more of the Miracle Elixir Spirit Pills like the one you took last ti."
"Hehehe, rember that you said this yourself—it's not
forcing you!"
"But Elder Zhou, you still haven't told
what the second thing is!"
"You might not believe it, but we have received an invitation from them to watch this military exhibition. I was thinking about asking if you're interested. If you are, I'll take you along."
"Of course, I'm interested!" Zhang nglong imdiately got excited. He was considering how to make fun of those people. Showing off their so-called 'most advanced' weapons in front of Huaxia now is like waving an ax in front of Lu Ban. What they considered cutting-edge was essentially what Huaxia's troops were left to play with.
"Alright, get ready; I'll be waiting for you at the capital's airport tomorrow. Since you have your own plane, I won't arrange for soone to pick you up."
"Got it, I'll be there on ti!"
...
The next morning, Zhang nglong arrived at the airport early, and from a distance, Elder Zhou was already waving at him.
"Elder Zhou!" Zhang nglong waved back and ran over, but when he saw who was standing with Elder Zhou, he was montarily stunned.
"General Xing..."
"Just call
Elder Xing like you call Elder Zhou," the old man said kindly to Zhang nglong, "I've heard many stories about you, and I like you a lot."
Zhang nglong's face imdiately turned red, being liked by such a great person made him feel sowhat embarrassed.
"Let
introduce you; this is General Zhu, General Xu, General Qin!"
"I know this young man!" General Qin was indeed Qin Feng's grandfather, "Thank you for your miracle elixir; it's thanks to you that this old man can live a few more years."
"It was just a small effort, nothing much," Zhang nglong said with a smile.
There were also several young officers present, about a dozen or so in total. Together with the security team, this was their star-studded group heading to the military exercise area.
"Elder Zhou, didn't you ntion that there was so weapon expert joining us today? Why did you bring this kid along? He's not a soldier; what's he doing coming with us?"
So people there didn't like Zhang nglong; they felt his style of doing things was too self-centered, and he was too arrogant.
"The weapon expert I ntioned is him!" Elder Zhou said with a smile, pointing at Zhang nglong.
"Him?" Several gazes suddenly focused on Zhang nglong, "He's the weapon expert? Elder Zhou, are you joking? I admit he's got so talent in physics and mathematics, but those are purely theoretical, not the sa domain as weaponry."
"All that stuff we're preparing to showcase for the National Day, he provided the information for it!"
This statent imdiately silenced everyone. Concerning this matter, to protect Zhang nglong, it had always been kept in a state of secrecy.
Many people were guessing who was behind these amazing achievents, but no one expected it to be Zhang nglong.
"You an the design schematics for our sixth-generation fighter jets, the controllable nuclear fusion reactors, the particle cannons, all that was based on the technical information he provided?"
"Exactly!" said Elder Zhou, "Now do you still think he doesn't have the right to join us?"
"Sorry, young man, I apologize for my behavior just now!" General Xu, who had just shown dissatisfaction with Zhang nglong, imdiately apologized to him.
As soldiers, what they hoped most to see was a strong motherland, and for them, enhancing the national defense was their contribution.
And the information provided by Zhang nglong had undoubtedly strengthened Huaxia's national defense many tis over; such a man was worthy of their respect!
"You're too kind," Zhang nglong said with a smile, "This ti we're going, not to mock others but purely to give them so pointers, right, everyone?"
"Hahaha! Exactly!"
"Yes, to give them guidance."
"Are their so-called modern equipnts even up to par?"
In an instant, everyone turned into scoffers!
