Chapter 179 Dream Chasers under the Starry Sky Never Have Water!
When Zhang Zhai saw the three words "Gan Xiaohua", his brain's powerful memory ability immediately came into play.
"The name seems familiar."
Zhang Zhai raised his head and looked at the face of the old man in front of him.
When this face overlapped with a certain face deep in Zhang Zhai's memory, the identity of this old man suddenly emerged in Zhang Zhai's mind.
"Professor Gan?" Zhang Zhai immediately stood up from his seat.
Although his tone was inquiring, his eyes were extremely sure.
"Mr. Zhang knows me?" Gan Xiaohua was a little surprised and looked at Zhang Zhai.
Although Gan Xiaohua has many wrinkles on his face and forehead due to his age, and bags under his eyes are particularly baggy, his eyes are still energetic.
Looking at this energetic old man, Zhang Zhai smiled, walked forward and helped the old man sit down.
"How could I not know you? You are a dual-employed professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics of Peking University, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and an academician of Gan. I am lucky enough to have listened to your open classes at Peking University. It sounds like I am your student."
Zhang Zhai said this, but felt a little excited in his heart.
Damn it! This is also a great person.
"Oh? Then I'm really proud, after all, I actually have such an outstanding student." Mr. Gan Xiaohua laughed when he heard this.
Zhang Zhai also smiled, but didn't answer.
"Hello Mr. Gan, my name is Hua Menglian."
Hua Menglian saw the gap and quickly said with a smile.
"Hello, Ms. Hua." Mr. Gan smiled and nodded.
"Mr. Zhang, Ms. Hua, look, is it time for this interview to begin?" Mr. Gan Xiaohua reminded.
Zhang Zhai took out a stool and sat directly in front of Mr. Gan Xiaohua. Hearing Gan Xiaohua's words, he couldn't help but smile.
Taking out the test questions and giving them to Academician Gan to do as before is not a test, it is an insult.
"This guy is interviewing Professor Gan. Isn't this a big show of swordsmanship in front of Guan Gong's door and a big ax in front of Lu Ban's door? Isn't it just humiliating himself?" Zhang Zhai said with a smile.
Zhang Zhai was actually a little confused as to why Professor Gan came.
Unlike Professor Hu and others, who drew a beautiful trap, Gan Xiaohua's visit was unnecessary.
"Academician Gan's ability is definitely above the test, and his character is certainly not to mention. Mr. Zhang, I think we should just let Academician Gan pass directly." Hua Menglian also said at the right time.
Zhang Zhai originally wanted to nod directly, but Mr. Gan Xiaohua spoke at this time.
Academician Gan Xiaohua smiled gently and said, "Although I am half your teacher, you can't break your rules because of me, right? Just do the interview."
Hua Menglian hesitated a little, hesitated to speak, and looked at Zhang Zhai.
Zhang Zhai looked at Gan Xiaohua. Because of the doubts in his heart, he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will go through the procedure with Professor Gan."
Gan Xiaohua smiled and nodded.
Zhang Zhai lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Professor Gan Xiaohua again.
"Professor Gan, I think it is unnecessary to test abilities," Zhang Zhai said.
"However, I have a few other questions that I would like to ask Professor Gan."
"Excuse me." Professor Gan nodded, stretched out his hand and made a welcome gesture.
"Professor Gan, as a professor at Peking University, an academician of the Academy of Engineering, and currently the deputy chief engineer of a certain aerospace base, why do you want to come to Zhaicheng Space Center for an interview?" Zhang Zhai stared at Professor Gan and said.
"The professor at Peking University is part-time, and the position of deputy chief engineer has been resigned. As for why... I have worked for the country for so many years. Now that I am old, I also want to pursue the dream of my youth."
Professor Gan said calmly and with a smile.
Just listening to these words, the corners of Zhang Zhai's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and his expression became weird.
Is it so easy to resign from the position of deputy chief engineer of a large aerospace base?
If Zhang Zhai remembers correctly, this person participated in the research and development of the Shenzhou V and Shenzhou VII projects.
And for the sake of dreams... You were engaged in aerospace before, but now that you are here, aren't you still engaged in aerospace?
Why does Zhang Zhai think this is so nonsense?
"Professor Gan, can you stop joking?"
"I'm not joking. My lifelong wish is that Chinese people can truly step out of the earth and truly control the sky above our heads." Professor Gan Xiaohua did not laugh when he heard this, but became serious.
"We have been working hard for this all our lives... I originally thought that I might not be able to see it in this life, but Zhang Zhai, your appearance gave me a glimmer of hope, so I came." Gan Xiaohua's eyes were a little sad.
Especially that sentence, I have been working hard for this all my life, and the complicated emotions flashing through my eyes are embarrassing.
A trace of tears flashed in Zhang Zhai's eyes because he was touched.
It may be difficult for ordinary people to understand this emotion, but Zhang Zhai understands.
When a picture like this appeared in Zhang Zhai's mind: Under the starry sky, a weak figure slowly raised his head and cast a curious look at the starry sky.
When this picture appeared in Zhang Zhai's mind, Zhang Zhai could understand it even more.
Because he, Zhang Zhai, is just a dream chaser under the starry sky.
Zhang Zhai could feel the sincerity and solemnity in Professor Gan Xiaohua's words, so he felt a sense of respect for Professor Gan Xiaohua.
"I understand, Professor Gan, welcome to join Zhaicheng Space Center." Zhang Zhai held Gan Xiaohua's hand.
The two of them were holding hands, but Gan Xiaohua suddenly laughed, "It seems that I passed your interview, Mr. Zhang Zhai. But I heard that the interview is a two-way choice. I happen to have a few questions that I want to ask. I don't know if I can."
Can?"
Zhang Zhai was a little stunned at that moment, but he reacted instantly and said with a smile on his face.
"No problem at all."
Are you trying to test me? Then come here.
Zhang Zhai laughed in his heart.
It doesn't matter if I can do it or not, I can still do it if I have enough knowledge.
Professor Gan Xiaohua seemed to have seen through what Zhang Zhai was thinking, he also smiled, opened his mouth and said.
"Mr. Zhang Zhai, I still know something about your news, so these questions are not professional questions, but other aspects. There are two questions in total."
"First question: I was also present at Zhang Zhai's speech at Peking University that day. My evaluation was that it was very exciting. Even an old guy like me was so excited that he wanted to stamp his feet and jump to the sky.
"Gan Xiaohua couldn't help but smile when he said this.
"But you can't fly to the sky by stomping your feet. You have to be down-to-earth step by step. I want to know, Zhang Zhai, did you just say what you said that night, or did you also think so in your heart?"
After saying that, Gan Xiaohua stared at Zhang Zhai's eyes with his sharp eyes.
Zhang Zhai responded calmly and looked at Professor Gan Xiaohua without hesitation.
"I must do what I say. I will never just keep my words. The interview that is going on now can prove it, right?"
"Furthermore, to be honest with you, Professor Gan, the Zhaicheng Space Center is also under construction. It will be built in the southeast corner of Zhaicheng, closest to the desert. It covers an area of five square kilometers (5 million square meters). One hundred thousand Terminators are rushing to build it.
, It is expected to be completed within a week." Zhang Zhai smiled and spoke frankly.
After listening to Zhang Zhai's words, Gan Xiaohua couldn't help but nodded, and looked at Zhang Zhai with admiration in his eyes.
"Zhang Zhai, you are very good. You are a practical person, not a dreamer, but a doer." Gan Xiaohua did not hide his praise for Zhang Zhai at all.
"Professor Gan, you have given me the award." Zhang Zhai responded calmly, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Then, I have one last question." Professor Gan put away his smile and became serious.
"Zhang Zhai, you are like a shooting star that emerged from the sky, shining brightly as soon as you appeared. Counting all your past achievements, all of them have done what others can't do, and all of them have been done just by talking. It can be said that you are a
An out-and-out genius.
There are countless people who are willing to believe that even if the promise you make this time is to colonize the moon, there are still countless people who are willing to believe that you can succeed.
Even the higher-ups have been convinced by you and are willing to cooperate with your space program.
But...I can't, I can't afford to gamble, I have more than I can hope for in my life, I don't dare to gamble, so I want to ask you.
