Chapter 252: The Crisis of Tsinghua Speech

After hearing Zhou Tian's words, all the students were shocked. Apparently, they did not expect that the integration of industry, academia and research was not first proposed by Director Zhou. This inevitably made everyone present look disappointed.

"Director Zhou, aren't we a laborist country? Why do you want to quote the Bald Eagle people's theory? Don't we have similar theories in our country?"

Suddenly, a sharp voice sounded among the crowd, instantly attracting a group of college students to look at Zhou Tian.

"Who said that just now?"

When Professor Meng Zhaoying saw that the situation was not good, he immediately stood up and shouted loudly, looking at everyone with cold eyes.

"Okay, Professor Meng, it's okay!" Zhou Tian waved his hand, declining Professor Meng's kindness, but his heart suddenly sank. He knew that if he answered well, it wouldn't matter, but if he answered badly, it would definitely have a great impact on his future.

It is not impossible that such remarks could lead to fatal consequences, especially when the wind picks up.

After thinking for a while, he said, "That's a good question. We are indeed a laborist country, and the Bald Eagle is a capitalist country, but the great man once taught us to discard the dross and retain the essence.

Just like my country introduced Western science and technology in modern times, such as railway technology. In the process of introducing railway technology, we abandoned the bad intention of Western powers to use railways for invasion and plunder, and instead took its essence of being able to quickly transport materials, promote economic development and strengthen regional connections.

Through continuous learning and improvement, my country's railway construction has now achieved remarkable achievements and has become an important support for the country's economic development. Although the trinity of industry, academia and research was proposed by the Bald Eagle people, we cannot deny its advanced nature! "

"As the saying goes, the ocean is vast because it can accommodate hundreds of rivers! We are a new regime and a new country. For thousands of years, our country has always stood at the top. What did it rely on? It relied on cultural heritage and innovation. Among the four great inventions, gunpowder, compass, printing and papermaking were all born in our country!"

"Why is this? Not only because of the wisdom of the ancients, but also because they were good at learning from the failures of their predecessors, which led to the invention of gunpowder, compass and other things. But now, we are lagging behind and we are being beaten.

Since we are lagging behind and being beaten, we must work hard to become stronger. Since the ancients were able to learn from the experience and lessons of their predecessors, and the great men can tell us how to do it, why don’t we do it? "

"Students, falling behind is not scary, and getting beaten is not scary either. At most, we can fight back. But ideological confinement is the scariest thing. Therefore, I hope that students can look at foreign ideas rationally in the future, and not think that everything foreign is right, nor that our traditional culture is wrong!"

"People should have their own cognition and understanding. So we can naturally absorb the essence of some foreign ideas that are useful to us. As long as they are beneficial to the development of our country, why don't we use them?"

"As for whether my country has similar ideas, I think everyone has heard of this saying, which is in the "Book of Han: Biography of Dong Zhongshu": "Learning stops at practice. To practice is to be enlightened; to be enlightened is to be a sage!"

As soon as Zhou Tian finished speaking, a thunderous applause rang out.

"Well said, Director Zhou, I think you are right!"

"You're right, Director Zhou!"

"Director Zhou, well done!"

Shouts from the students made Zhou Tian relax. After relaxing, he felt his back was soaked. Although he had only said a few words, he had thought carefully about each one, and he was even more tired than working all day.

Meng Zhaoying looked at the performance of the students and had to admit that Zhou Tian's performance just now was beyond his expectations. His words just now not only resolved the students' difficulties, but also kept quoting the words of great men, putting himself at the highest point from the beginning. Although this reduced Zhou Tian's own influence, it also avoided future retaliatory measures.

"Okay. Director Zhou has already answered you. Now everyone can go home. Those who need to attend classes should attend, and those who need to study should study!" Afraid that these students would bring up some inappropriate topics, Meng Zhaoying stepped forward and said.

"Okay, everyone, go away! I will stay in Tsinghua University for some time in the future, and we will have plenty of time to see each other again!" Zhou Tian also followed Professor Meng's words and ended today's topic.

After all the students had left, Zhou Tian finally felt a wave of fatigue coming from his body.

"Xiaotian, are you okay?"

Professor Meng saw that Zhou Tian's face looked a little strange, so he stepped forward and asked with concern.

"It's okay, Professor Meng. I didn't expect these college students to be so difficult to deal with!"

Zhou Tian waved his hand and smiled bitterly.

"Well, it's because you spoke well just now, otherwise, they might have embarrassed you!" Professor Meng's tone was full of praise, but he immediately reminded: "If you encounter such questions in the future, don't answer them, otherwise it will not be good for your future!"

"Okay, I understand!" Zhou Tian knew that this was Professor Meng's good intention, so he agreed on the spot.

As they talked, Zhou Tian waited until he felt that he had regained some strength, then he and Professor Meng walked into the laboratory.

In the next few days, Zhou Tian spent all his time in the laboratory except for returning to the factory to handle some important matters. The research progress of the lithography machine was also slowly advancing under Zhou Tian's constant guidance.

At night he would go back to continue drawing the design of the etching machine. In short, he was so busy every day that he could only coax his children before they went to bed at night.

However, as the research deepened, Zhou Tian gradually felt something was wrong.

He found that he had overestimated the development of the lithography machine and the development of the domestic electronics industry. As the research progressed step by step, he did not expect that he would get stuck on the silicon wafer.

"Director Zhou, what should we do next?"

An electronics teacher who was sent by Professor Meng to help Zhou Tian looked at Zhou Tian anxiously and asked.

"Hey, we don't have time now. How about this? You go find Professor Meng and ask him to see if you can get the country to help you get some silicon wafers from the West! This is the only way for now!"

Zhou Tian thought for a while and said.

It was also his own fault. Silicon wafers were the basic material for manufacturing integrated circuits and various semiconductor devices, but he had forgotten about it at the time. He also forgot that it was the 52nd year and not the previous life. If he wanted to get silicon wafers now, he could only buy them from abroad.

"Okay, Director Zhou, I'll go right away!"

Having said that, the teacher hurriedly left the laboratory.

Zhou Tian, ​​however, fell into deep thought as he looked at the lithography machine in front of him that had already completed most of its work.

All in all, maybe he was a little hasty in doing this matter.

"Do I still need to research silicon chips?"

Zhou Tian thought about it and couldn't help but smile bitterly on his face.

The more he studied, the more he found that there seemed to be more and more things that were lacking in this era. Even if he wanted to study high technology in one step to achieve a curve overtaking, facing this poor situation, he could only start from the basics.

It may seem like a silicon chip problem, but in fact it is also a problem of overall industrial development. If the industrial foundation is not improved, no matter what we do, we will be constrained.

Now, he understood why the country owed Big Brother such a huge sum of money. It was really that the overall improvement of the domestic industry could not be achieved overnight. Just like he had studied a lot of machine tools, but these machine tools were still a little stretched for the improvement of the country's overall industry.

"Semiconductors and the electronics industry are becoming more and more interesting!"

As he thought about it, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"In that case, let me challenge my limits!"

Muttering to himself, he felt an invisible force rising from his body. He regained his energy and continued to devote himself to the manufacture of the lithography machine.
