Xueba's Sea of ​​Stars

Chapter 244 Visiting the door
"Welcome to take flight CA931 from Luzhou to Beijing, I am this time..."

Listening to the amiable voice of the stewardess on the radio, Wu Bin found his seat, sat down, and fastened his seat belt.

At the beginning of this winter vacation, Wu Bin, who was supposed to take the train home with Li Yan, got on the plane to Beijing by himself. As for the reason, it was because he was going to meet someone, a living legend of physics , Yang Zhenning.

Back to two days ago, Wu Bin, who was reading a book, received a call from Professor Song Nanfeng, asking him to go to his office for a chat, and the result of this conversation was that Mr. Yang wanted to meet and chat with him. This news.

Today's Wu Bin is no longer an unknown person who has just entered university to study physics.

His graphene-related paper published in "Science Advances" has been selected as one of the "[-] Most Influential International Academic Papers in Huaguo of the Year", and it is the single cited paper in the searchable papers of HKUST Web of Science (SCI, SSCI, AHCI) The paper with the highest number of times.

Afterwards, another paper was published in the top material magazine "Advanced Materials", setting the first publication record of the Department of Physics.

In addition, three papers have been published in the top physics journal "Physical Review Letters (Physical Letters)".

Even if such an achievement is placed on a doctoral student, it would be shining like gold, let alone he is only a sophomore.

In the end, Wu Bin also learned from Professor Song why Director Jiang would take the initiative to mention graduation to him. It turned out that some national youth awards could only be implemented on him after he graduated from university.

These awards are very practical rewards for Wu Bin personally, and will be of great benefit to his future scientific research career. Of course, the University of Science and Technology that trained him will also be honored.

The reason why Mr. Yang made the request to meet him this time is that apart from Wu Bin being the most dazzling one among the new generation of college students, Mr. Yang also has a special affection for HKUST.

First of all, Luzhou is the hometown of Mr. Yang. He was born in Siguxiang and has a deep affection for Luzhou.

In 1978, under the initiative of Mr. Yang and others, HKUST established the first juvenile class. After that, Mr. Yang became an honorary professor of HKUST. In 00, he made a special trip to HKUST to attend the "Qiu Shi Graduate Scholarship " award ceremony.

Zhuang Xiaowei, who used to be Wu Bin's super student, got advice from Yang Zhenning to let her study experimental physics when she went to UC Berkeley.

Now, for Wu Bin, the second outstanding student in the history of HKUST who is about to complete the four majors of mechanics, it is not surprising that Mr. Yang, who has always been concerned about HKUST, wants to meet him.

Air tickets and accommodation have been arranged properly. As for whether it was arranged by HKUST or Mr. Yang, Professor Song didn't specify, and Wu Bin didn't ask.

Although there is not enough time, Wu Bin went to get a general understanding of the research topics of this physicist in the past two days, and quickly read through the "Dawn Collection" and "Dawn Collection" written by him

The comparison table of physical gauge field theory and mathematical fiber bundle geometry theory listed in it makes Wu Bin feel very powerful. If he has more time, he will definitely study the corresponding relationship between the elements in the list.

The meeting time was arranged at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. The location was not the Jinghua University where Mr. Yang worked, nor a high-end restaurant, but his home.

Wu Bin was a little flattered when he first heard the news. After all, for such an expert, inviting you to his home as a guest is quite a high standard, not to mention that this is their first meeting.

Wu Bin had experienced the traffic jam in the north of Beijing for a long time, so even though it was still early after he got off the plane, he still called a taxi to Mr. Yang's mansion in advance. He really didn't want to be late for such an important occasion.

Mr. Yang's home is a small milky white building surrounded by a spacious lawn, which looks very comfortable.

Turning on the phone and checking the time, it was 14:25, which was still early for the agreed time, so Wu Bin just found a shop to continue his reading until dusk gradually fell, and Wu Bin closed the book and walked towards Mr. Yang's home.

"call……"

Standing at the gate, Wu Bin took a deep breath, and then slowly pressed the doorbell.

Soon, a very intellectual-looking woman came out and opened the door for Wu Bin, and said to him with a smile: "You are Wu Bin, you look younger than I imagined."

"Hi, this is my first visit, and I don't know what you two like, so I bought some tea."

Of course, Wu Bin had seen Weng Fan's photo before, so he immediately recognized Mrs. Yang's wife, and immediately took out a box of tea from his backpack that he had prepared before boarding the plane and handed it over.

"You're too polite, don't bring any more presents in the future." Weng Fan didn't make too many excuses. He smiled and took the tea box from Wu Bin's hand, then turned to Wu Bin and said, "Come in and sit down."

"Thank you." Wu Bin nodded towards her and walked into the room.

Just when Wu Bin was thinking about where to sit, an old man slowly walked down the stairs. Wu Bin looked up and saw that it was Professor Yang Zhenning.

"Hello, Professor Yang, thank you very much for your invitation." Wu Bin took two steps forward and nodded towards the old man.

"I'm also very happy that you can come." Yang Zhenning smiled and nodded towards Wu Bin, then pointed to the sofa in the center of the living room with his crutches and said, "Sit down, I have a lot to talk to you about."

Wu Bin also liked such a direct approach to the topic, so after Mr. Yang sat down, he immediately sat opposite to him, and Weng Fan brought drinks and fruits for the two of them.

"I have read all your papers. As an undergraduate, I can only say that I have never seen anyone who has done better than you." After taking a sip of tea, Yang Zhenning praised Wu Bin with approval.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Wu Bin was not too modest, and politely accepted the compliment.

After nodding his head with a smile, Yang Zhenning continued: "Actually, I was supposed to go to HKUST to talk to you, but I can't help it. I'm getting old, and it's really uncomfortable to fly, so I had to put on airs and let you go. Please come to me."

"It was supposed to be me, a junior, who came to visit you. Professor Yang is serious." Wu Bin waved his hands quickly.

"Okay, that's all for the polite words. I have a very important question to ask you first. After graduating from undergraduate, which university do you plan to go to for further study? Maybe I can give you some advice."

Wu Bin: "In this regard... I plan to do a direct Ph.D. at HKUST."

After listening to Wu Bin's answer, Yang Zhenning was taken aback for a moment, but soon laughed, and said, "It seems that we really have a lot of topics to talk about today."
