The next morning, just after having breakfast, Lin Jie received two unexpected visitors.
"Dean Cheng, Dean Yuan, please co in!"
After inviting the two deans into the living room to sit down, Lin Jie smiled and said, "You could have just called about the project, no need for the two prominent deans to co personally, right?"
Cheng Xingguang laughed heartily and said, "For talents like Expert Lin, no amount of attention is too much."
Yuan Guangxi nodded and said, "Indeed, it's just that the dical College is often restricted by nurous rules, otherwise, with Expert Lin's talent, it would be more than sufficient to hire you as a distinguished professor."
"No, please, no!"
Lin Jie quickly waved his hand to refuse, "Teaching these dozen or so students gives a headache... I can't imagine teaching another batch..."
Yuan Guangxi earnestly said, "Actually, Expert Lin, your teaching work has made an extraordinary impact!"
"To be honest, I've been observing your elite teaching model very closely!"
"At my direction, soone has been quietly observing and recording the learning and growth of your students."
These words made Lin Jie startle; he hadn't expected his teaching to beco a research subject for others.
Yuan Guangxi continued, "Based on initial results, your students are not the most outstanding among Professor Chen's students."
"But after more than two months under your careful guidance..."
Yuan Guangxi praised, "In the latest targeted test, compared to the control group, they showed significant improvent in both the breadth and depth of their knowledge."
"Even more surprising, they have shown impressive styles akin to renowned doctors in handling details and approaching diseases."
"I can't claim that each of them will grow into a renowned doctor. But judging from their current developnt trend, at least two or three of them will achieve remarkable accomplishnts in the future!"
He gave a thumbs up, praising, "Expert Lin, your teaching is quite transformative."
Lin Jie modestly smiled and said, "You're overpraising , overpraising!"
"It actually mainly stems from their discipline, effort, and motivation, I've done very little!"
Seeing that Yuan Guangxi wanted to speak, Cheng Xingguang stopped him and said, "Dean Yuan, stop trying to coax Expert Lin into teaching more students for you."
"We all understand that renowned doctors can be nurtured, but talents like Expert Lin develop independently."
He sighed, "If the project Expert Lin submitted yesterday proves effective and wide-reaching, wouldn't its contribution to society be greater than nurturing a few renowned doctors?"
Yuan Guangxi gently nodded and said solemnly, "Overall, if Expert Lin focuses primarily on scientific research, indeed, the contribution to society could be greater!"
"In essence, much of the push for human progress cos from the research outcos of a handful of elite and geniuses!"
"And Expert Lin, you have the potential to be among them!"
With such high praise, Lin Jie felt both elated and sowhat apprehensive!
Before he could say a modest word, Yuan Guangxi revealed the purpose of their visit, "After discussions with Dean Cheng, we've decided that our two institutions will collaborate to fully support your research project."
This outco was slightly unexpected for Lin Jie, "Joint support?"
Cheng Xingguang laughed again and said, "Expert Lin, don't take Dean Yuan's formal words too seriously. Actually, neither of us wanted to yield."
He winked at Lin Jie, "I suggested rock-paper-scissors or drawing lots, but he refused, so we had to compromise and jointly support your project!"
Yuan Guangxi snorted and said, "Soday if a biographer or journalist inquires about this episode, saying the project's affiliation was decided by rock-paper-scissors or drawing lots, if you're not embarrassed, I would be!"
"What's embarrassing about that? Perhaps it might even beco a good story."
After saying this, Cheng Xingguang formally said, "Regarding project support, the funding you applied for is one million, and both the hospital and dical College will contribute one million each, double your need, no fear of waste!"
"Additionally, the request for live experintal animals, equipnt, laboratories, specins, and others, we will prioritize arrangents."
Yuan Guangxi also expressed, "In short, Expert Lin, whether you need manpower, financial resources, or materials, we will fully satisfy you."
With such strong support, Lin Jie felt both honored and sowhat overwheld!
Recalling Chen Shi's reminder last night, he tentatively asked, "Deans, are you planning to assign personnel to participate in this project?"
Yuan Guangxi shook his head and said, "No, no, there will only be financial personnel from the college to audit the use of project funds, no interference or supervision of the project..."
At this point, Cheng Xingguang pulled Yuan Guangxi aside and said in a deep voice, "Expert Lin's suggestion clearly isn't about this!"
"If I'm not mistaken, Expert Lin is concerned about soone wanting to join the project to share the credit and honor."
Yuan Guangxi's face turned cold, and he snorted, "How others operate, I don't care, but Expert Lin's work must not be disturbed..."
"Old Cheng, you and I in this position have compromised on many things. But on this matter, I hope we can be firm together!"
Cheng Xingguang gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Old Yuan, don't underestimate ."
"If I hadn't torn open the facade and banged the table back then, Expert Lin wouldn't be the designated expert of Donghua Hospital now."
Lin Jie was stunned. There seed to be a long story behind his appointnt as a designated expert at the Affiliated Hospital.
"Dean Cheng..."
Cheng Xingguang waved his hand to stop Lin Jie's inquiry, and said helplessly, "It's impossible to explain; so people cling to regulations, educational background, and qualifications, yet fail to see the most apparent facts."
"Expert Lin, your recent victory over Dr. Xia has strengthened my resolve."
"When the project results co, I won't have to pay them any attention."
Yuan Guangxi shook his head and sighed deeply, "We can never wake those who pretend to sleep! They know Expert Lin's abilities and talents, don't they?"
"It's just due to unspeakable mindsets that these people rigidly adhere to systems and regulations, alas..."
He said apologetically, "Expert Lin, I'm sorry you still have to go through the process to obtain the dical College's degree."
"In this area, my authority is quite limited!"
After sending off the two deans, Lin Jie also found himself in a whirl of emotions!
In society, there are those who inexplicably dislike him and want to suppress him, as well as those who, like the two deans, silently support and care for him.
This is indeed the complexity of human nature!
As Lin Jie was reflecting on this, he once again heard the doorbell ring.
Opening the door and seeing the visitor, Lin Jie smiled and said, "Kexin, the tasting session is in the afternoon. Are you here so early because you've missed or is there sothing else?"
Saying this, he reached out to embrace An Kexin's waist, but she deftly avoided him.
An Kexin, without a word, walked into the house, then turned to Lin Jie with a cold face and said, "Lin Jie, we can't continue like this!"
"Today, we need to make a clean break!"
