Rebirth: I Have a Spiritual Spring

Chapter 214: An academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has become a celebrity in the school

Zhang Chunyan silently nodded to her and encouraged her.

After the two sat down.

The leading old academician smiled kindly at them and said slowly: "Chun Yan, is this kid the one you mentioned who cultivated the ancient fruit?"

Zhang Chunyan obviously respected the old academician very much. He stood up and said respectfully: "Yes, Dean Luo, she is the Zhang Wanwan I mentioned. She has just entered her sophomore year this year."

Zhang Wanwan quickly stood up and bowed to the academicians, shy and well-behaved.

Academician Luo chuckled and said: "Don't be nervous, we are just curious about what kind of people raised the ancient fruit. You must know that the ancient fruit is an extinct ancient plant. Now experts at home and abroad can only make predictions based on the fossils discovered. After conducting research and confirming that the plant is an ancient fruit, the American research institute has expressed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs many times that it is eager to cooperate with us, and its attitude is very polite, and even implicitly stated that resources can be exchanged. Of course, these things are not ours You can ask.

I invite you here today just to learn more about the discovery and cultivation process of ancient fruit. Can you tell us about it, little guy? "

Zhang Chunyan glanced at Zhang Wanwan encouragingly and whispered, "Just tell me how you discovered it and how you cultivated it."

"Yes." Zhang Wanwan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said after she calmed down a bit: "Actually, I also cultivated the ancient fruit unintentionally. My purpose is actually that lotus."

Everyone looked as if that was indeed the case.

Zhang Wanwan laughed twice and continued: "The seeds were obtained from the school's research institute. Maybe I was lucky. I just picked one seed of a kind, and I happened to choose that one. In fact, I didn't cultivate it very much. I was just afraid. The seeds were destroyed, so I cultured the seeds in hydroponic soil and raised them on the roof of the school building. There was plenty of sunshine there and no one went up there. I would go there and take a look every day, except for changing the water. , I didn’t do anything, and the seeds sprouted by themselves. It was quite normal at first. Although the ancient fruit plant was a companion plant, it was not very obvious, and I didn’t care. I was too busy to go up there in the next few days, so I went up again. When I looked at it, I found that the lotus plants looked different, and the difference between the two connected plants was getting bigger and bigger. At that time, I was just confused, so I immediately contacted the professor to check. "

Everyone nodded in understanding, and they were quite able to accept this statement. To put it bluntly, it was a blind cat who met a dead rat, and his luck was unlucky, echoing the behavioral characteristics of a sophomore.

However, it is a fact that Zhang Wanwan cultivated the ancient fruit, and they still have to pay attention to it. Academician Luo continued to ask gently: "Then little guy, can you tell me why you chose that one from a bunch of seeds? What is it?" Is it different?"

Zhang Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, lost in thought, and suddenly her eyes widened for a while, and she nodded heavily at Academician Luo. Everyone was shocked when they saw her like that. If there were special features, they might be able to find more ancient fruits later.

"I remembered! That day, my senior asked us to classify the seeds. I wanted to do my own research and asked for one seed of each kind. The senior agreed, but I was too embarrassed to choose the best one. At that time, I wanted one seed of each type. There is a hole on the lotus seed, which looks like a moth-eaten hole. However, it does not appear to be man-made. Moreover, the seed shape is plump and individual. The head was a bit big and quite beautiful. My senior picked it out and said it was a pity. If there wasn’t that small hole, this seed could have been placed in the top class. Now it can only be eliminated. I think the seed should still be able to germinate. Just think about it, it’s a lotus seed, it doesn’t matter if you can’t plant it, after all, we are quite familiar with the lotus plant.”

When an old academician next to Academician Luo heard this, he held his chest and said distressedly: "It's terrible! I don't know how many insect-eaten seeds were thrown away before. Do you think there are still ancient fruits that can grow in them?"

Everyone rolled their eyes in disgust and ignored him.

Academician Luo said with laughter and tears: "This kind of thing is rare, so don't worry about it. In that case, we have to thank the little guy. If she hadn't cherished the seeds, we might have missed the ancient fruit!"

This time many people agreed. Zhang Wanwan saw that the atmosphere in the conference room had relaxed a lot, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

While they were discussing, Zhang Wanwan listened carefully and took out the notebook she had prepared in advance. She sat next to Zhang Chunyan and wrote down notes quickly, circling the things she didn't understand. Everyone looked at her serious attitude. He didn’t bother him, and after the meeting ended, Dean Luo patted Zhang Wanwan on the shoulder and said happily: “Work hard, I hope you can come to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the future!”

Zhang Wanwan was flattered and agreed excitedly. She respectfully waited until all the academicians had left before going out.

After leaving the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhang Chunyan said to her with satisfaction: "You performed well today and made no mistakes. You have caught the eye of Dean Luo. You have a bright future. I suggest you follow the path of scientific research in the future."

Zhang Yuanyuan thought about her business plan in her hometown, but she couldn't give up.

Zhang Chunyan knew what she was struggling with, and sneered: "Don't think about going back to farming. If you make achievements in scientific research, the benefits you will get are not comparable to those of a few acres of fields. Besides, if you really want to start a business, It’s not impossible, let’s talk about it later, don’t rush it, anyway, the money you made before will be enough for you to live happily for a long time!”

Zhang Wanwan thought about it again, yes, she was not short of money now, and she could really take it slow for a while, but then she was a little anxious to build the house in her hometown.

Zhang Wanwan was feeling emotional in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. When she returned to school, she followed Zhang Chunyan back to the teaching and research office to ask the questions recorded in the previous meeting.

Along the way, she received another wave of attention from teachers in the teaching and research department. Some professors who were familiar with Zhang Wanwan gave her a thumbs up and praised her.

Zhang Wanwan almost froze with laughter from the moment she entered Zhang Chunyan's office.

By the time she left the teaching and research section, almost all the teachers and students in the Agricultural College knew that she had raised ancient fruits. On the way back to the dormitory, she occasionally met some people who knew Zhang Wanwan, and they all said excitedly to those around her: "Look, that's it." Zhang Wanwan, the one who raised the ancient fruit."

"Wow! She looks so different from what I thought!"

"Huh? What do you think Zhang Wanwan is like?"

"Well, I thought that a student with such a dedicated research spirit like her should be similar to those graduate students from the agricultural college. They wear a dirty white coat all day long and look like farmers. They are darker and more ordinary."

Zhang Wanwan's head was full of black threads when she heard this, and she quickly quickened her pace and left.
