Chapter 339 Questioning Authority (1/3)(2/2)
Xu Mang's mood was a bit complicated. According to Deputy Director Zhou's last tone, he seemed to be dissatisfied with something. It was probably due to progress issues at Fuda, which led to infinite delays. After all, everyone's funds were not available.
So many.
Cancel cooperation?
At present, it seems that such a thing is very likely to happen. Scientific research funds are still limited. If there is no progress for a long time, it is normal for it to be cut.
"What's wrong?"
"I answered a phone call with a sad face." Yang Xiaoman asked with concern.
"Tsinghua University seems to be dissatisfied with our progress, and the cooperation may be terminated in the end." Xu Mang frowned and said, "It would be really embarrassing if the project was terminated."
Hearing Xu Mang's words, Yang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you familiar with them?"
"Not familiar."
"It's just a cooperative relationship at the moment. How to terminate the cooperation? Tsingta University and I are just passers-by." Xu Mang said: "Forget it, wait until I am discharged from the hospital."
for a long time,
I don’t know who leaked the news, but Xu Mang’s cell phone was blocked.
Director Fang from the Physics Department, Director Ouyang from the Mathematics Department, Director Xia from the Computer Department, Director Liu from the Materials Department, etc., all called Xu Mang to inquire about his condition, followed closely by Xu Mang's roommates.
at the same time,
Lin Wanwan and others who were in the laboratory just learned the news. For these five people, they couldn't believe that Xu Mang was hospitalized. They just held a meeting using the voice system in the morning and adjusted the relevant information.
research directions and formulate future plans.
As a result, just a few hours later, Master Xu Mangxu was hospitalized?
How is that possible!
But as news came out one after another, it seemed that hospitalization had been confirmed.
"I'm going!"
"Instructor Xu is really hospitalized?" Li Zhuo said with disbelief: "Isn't this too dramatic?"
"I heard that my waist was broken."
"My waist is flashing." Li Wentao frowned and said, "Could it be because I was too happy yesterday? Or maybe I wasn't happy enough yesterday, so I felt happy again early in the morning, and my waist flashed for joy."
""
""
""
Li Wentao's conclusion is quite reasonable, not to mention that Teacher Xu Mang can really do it.
The day finally came when he was discharged from the hospital. In fact, Xu Mang's waist was almost healed, but pain occasionally occurred. As long as the movement was not too big, there was usually no problem. However, he was forced to be pressed into the wheelchair.
Yang's mother also took great pains to buy a high-end imported wheelchair for Xu Mang, and also told her daughter not to leave Xu Mang's side at all times.
So far,
Xu Mang became a healthy patient with a personal servant. Without Yang Xiaoman, he could walk, jump, and run on both feet. With Yang Xiaoman, he could only sit in a wheelchair.
There are still four days left before heading to Princeton University to attend the academic conference.
at this time,
Xu Mang was in the laboratory, and with five members of the research team, participated in a video remote meeting with the Tsinghua University research team.
"Xu Mang?"
"Are you feeling well?" Deputy Director Zhou asked.
"It's okay." Xu Mang nodded and said seriously: "Hurry up and start."
"That's good."
"After careful study by us, the plan you sent us deviated greatly from our assumptions." Deputy Director Zhou said: "What we want here is to proceed according to the original plan, and you need to speed it up.
schedule."
Xu Mang sat in a wheelchair, crossed his legs, and said expressionlessly: "If we follow the original plan, the progress cannot be accelerated."
"Xu Mang."
"There is only an A in the Physics Department of Fuda. The reason why I found Fuda is because of your experience in research and development of materials databases and software, plus your own right to speak in the field of physics." A middle-aged man Xu Mang didn't know was serious.
He said: "If it weren't for you, we might cooperate with HKUST and Peking University."
Xu Mang didn't speak. He was thinking about how to make a choice. If it were the past, Xu Mang might just do it by himself and love whoever he wanted. But now his identity has changed. At this time, Xu Mang is not an ordinary student, he is a member of the research team.
leaders and decision-makers.
Not only do you have to be responsible for the direction of research and development, but you also have to bear all the consequences. You also have to consider many things, such as the reputation of the school, your own reputation, and the future of the members of the team.
When Xu Mang was making decisions,
The five of them, Lin Wanwan, were in inner torment. The reason for this problem was that they were not good enough and even dragged down instructor Xu Mangxu.
"Deputy Director Zhou?"
"Maybe it's your own problem?" Xu Mang said, "Because of your plan, our progress is a little slow."
"This plan was explored by many of our experts and professors." Deputy Director Zhou said seriously: "Our Tsinghua University is authoritative in materials science."
Xu Mang smiled and said calmly: "Science is not just knowledge itself, but also a way of thinking, a way of questioning everything critically. If I can't ask questions critically, I can't face authority critically.
, in the end we can only let others slaughter us.”
"I think your plan has flaws, which is why our progress has slowed down." Xu Mang said, "This is my opinion."
Subsequently,
The two sides have reached an impasse, and are only one step away from the breakdown of cooperation.
Xu Mang was a little indifferent to this. When he saw the five members of his group, each with a trace of sadness on their faces, he had already made up his mind.
