The Literary Life of a Science Leader

Chapter 9 Personal Emotional Issues
What to do after the exam is still what to do.

Mu Jingchi and Zhang Chuyang are still in the stage of continuing to learn, especially for direct PhD students, there are many and complicated things to learn.After all, the subject of materials is an interdisciplinary subject, and one must know a little bit about everything, and sometimes even be a little bit more proficient in everything.

For the time being, the first semester of Ph.D. [-] will be spent in the learning process.Wait until the second semester of Ph.D. to take the qualification examination. After the qualification examination, you have to make a topic selection report and start the formal doctoral life.

Of course, before that, it is still necessary to choose a research direction.

The material subject of Huaqing University ranks first in the country and ninth in the world, which is very strong.The research on materials under extreme conditions is only one of the general directions, and there are many small directions below it.

For example, the calculation of mechanical parameters of materials under high temperature and high pressure, the study of the physical properties of intermetallic compounds in alloys under extreme conditions, the first-principles study of the structural phase transition and physical properties of materials in different crystal systems, etc.

There are many research directions that can be chosen. As direct Ph.D. students, they can only start with a simple one, and when they become stronger, they will be able to develop large-scale projects.

Professor Yang did not send back the test papers soon after collecting them, and Mu Jingchi was not in a hurry. He continued to accumulate more material science knowledge, especially in the theoretical direction.

Although materials science is an experimental subject, with the development of materials science and engineering, theory is becoming more and more important.The research and development of new materials must have sufficient theoretical support and be researched and developed under the guidance of the theory.

It's just that the current material theory is not sufficient enough to guide production quantitatively.

evening.

After a day of postgraduate study, Mu Jingchi drove back to the city of Shengjing·Charm.

Walking out of the elevator, he saw his mother, Mu Huaiyun.My mother was at the door of the house and didn't go in. She was chatting with the neighbor's Aunt Zhao with her bag.

After meeting every morning, Mu Jingchi already knew some things about his neighbor.

Aunt Zhao is not from the capital, but from the south. Because her daughter is studying in the capital, she bought this house in Shengjing·City of Charm.

It also highlights that a family has a mine. As for the daughter that Aunt Zhao mentioned, Mu Jingchi has never seen it.It is said that I went on a trip with my classmates during the summer vacation, but I haven't come back yet.

After all, not all universities start school as early as Huaqing University and Yanda University, and it is normal to start school in early September.

"Mom, why don't you go in?"

Mu Jingchi and Aunt Zhao greeted each other, then turned and opened the door.

"We'll talk later when I have time. I'll go with Xiaomu." Lao Mu greeted Aunt Zhao, and then walked in with Mu Jingchi, "This is your own house! Although I am your mother, I don't Intrudes on your space and invades your privacy."

Lao Mu respected Mu Jingchi very much, and he did a good job in details.

It is precisely because of these details that are considered for others that Lao Mu is able to start his own business, and the real estate company is also thriving.

"There's no privacy, just come in when you come here." Mu Jingchi said as he casually put the keychain into the storage box hanging on the shoe cabinet in the entrance, "You know the password."

The door can be opened with a key or with an electronic password.Mu Jingchi posted the password in the WeChat group of 'Benevolence, Love and Love', and everyone knows it.

Lao Mu nodded, but his eyes were on the living room, dining room and kitchen.

It was different from the worst situation in the imagination, the whole room was clean and tidy, and Lao Mu even wiped the cabinet with his hands, and there was no dust.

The general layout of the house has not changed, some small decorations have been adjusted, and some other things have been added.

There is an extra bookshelf next to the sofa in the living room. What is placed on it is not materials professional books, but some domestic and foreign novels, which should be used for rest and pass the time.

And on the balcony of the living room, there are a few touches of green, which makes Lao Mu very surprised.

There are rows of potted plants, cactus, aloe, succulent, pothos, spider plant, asparagus, ivy, although they are all small pieces placed on the balcony, they look full of vitality.

"I didn't realize that you like raising this kind of potted plants before. It's really good to live on your own, and you can live according to your own ideas." Lao Mu walked over and gently touched the branches and leaves with his hands, and immediately felt a refreshing breath.

"Why don't you keep another pet? You are too lonely by yourself."

Seeing that there were no mosquitoes flying around these potted plants, Lao Mu was temporarily relieved, with a smile on his face, he put forward his own suggestion.

"Shall I drink tea or coffee?" Mu Jingchi didn't understand what to say, and asked his mother instead.

"coffee."

Lao Ji drinks tea and never leaves his teacup, but Lao Mu likes to drink coffee.

Mu Jingchi poured out the coffee beans with a kettle of hot water, and started to grind by hand, "I don't need to keep pets for the time being. I go out every morning and come back at night. I don't have time to accompany my pets. I can't solve the food for pets." .”

Whether raising potted plants or raising pets, Mujingchi likes it very much.Besides, there is still a system that can provide help now, so the conditions are more suitable for him.

It's just that Mujingchi has time and energy problems. Potted plants are fine, but pets really have no choice but to delay.

My mother sat on the sofa in the living room, asked Mu Jingchi to sit down as well, took a look at the movement of grinding coffee beans, and then said: "Xiao Mu, you are already 22 years old, and you have a lot of houses and cars, and you are still PhD."

"Do you have any thoughts on your personal emotional problems?"

Lao Mu didn't come here today for this matter, she wanted to come here to see how her son was doing, and if he had already messed up the house.

The fact is that it is quite different from her idea, her son is living a very good life, looks exquisite and tasteful, and still looks indifferent.

But the conversation with the neighbor's sister outside the door made her suddenly feel a sense of crisis.

You know, until now, my son has not fallen in love, nor does he seem to have the idea of ​​falling in love. Even the goddesses of Huaqing University who are both knowledgeable and good-looking have not moved him.

Thinking of the unfortunate marriage impression she left on her son when she was young, Mu Huaiyun felt a little uneasy, "Could it be that my own experience made my son resist marriage and distrust love? right?"

Otherwise, why didn't such an excellent son of his own fall in love?

So, Lao Mu couldn't care too much, and started to test Mu Jingchi.

Mu Jingchi's hand froze for a moment, and then continued to grind coffee, "I didn't find a suitable one."
