Aiming Too High

"Hahaha! If I don't open a project, you won't know how to do one yourself?"
Hearing Zhao Yang's words, a smile appeared on Guo Hao's face as he laughed and said to him.
"That's not the issue!"
Zhao Yang was slightly helpless.
"I do projects, but they are all minor ones. They're like chicken ribs—tasteless to eat, yet a pity to discard. They're a bit..."
"Aiming too high?"
Guo Hao rolled his eyes at Zhao Yang.
"Damn it, I gave you such a large laboratory and even granted you a degree of autonomy. Yet you, of all people, still want me to give you projects? You are an independent researcher yourself, and an associate professor at Yanhang University. Yet you don't even have the damn ability to conduct scientific research independently?"
Hearing Guo Hao's words, Zhao Yang let out an embarrassed laugh.
"Isn't it because I'm used to doing major projects with you, God Hao! Major projects are so satisfying! These minor projects really make me..."
"Alright."
Guo Hao glanced at Zhao Yang.
"I need some tungsten alloy materials, as well as high-strength, high-carbon ceramic materials. Try to manufacture them. I'll give you some data later, and you can try to make them based on my data."
Guo Hao couldn't be bothered to listen to Zhao Yang's nonsense. He had come to find Zhao Yang today mainly because he had business; checking on his laboratory was just on the way.
It was mainly related to the first-wall material.
During these past three months at the EAST controlled nuclear fusion center in Luzhou, after conducting experiments, Guo Hao had also specifically researched a series of issues such as first-wall neutron irradiation, thermal accumulation, and instantaneous excessive temperatures.
Guo Hao had researched them in detail.
During these three months, he naturally did not abandon his old profession, computational materials science.
This was his specialty, after all.
He had specifically calculated about five or six types of materials as candidate materials for the first wall.
These calculated materials themselves carried a degree of uncertainty.
Furthermore, they required a large number of experiments for trial manufacturing.
Now that he was back in Yanjing, Guo Hao naturally wouldn't let high-quality labor like Senior Zhao Yang go to waste.

"That's great! Is God Hao finally going to carry me to victory again?!"
Hearing Guo Hao's words, intense excitement immediately appeared in Zhao Yang's eyes.
"Don't get ahead of yourself. The data this time is quite extensive, and it might involve quite a few new materials, requiring many experiments. Moreover, as I stated before, I can only give you some data and a rough outline of the experimental process. Since I have many other matters to attend to, I won't be able to assist you directly. You'll have to figure things out yourself. Of course, I will provide you with the funding, and plenty of it!"
"That's not a problem!"
Zhao Yang readily agreed, his entire being bursting with enthusiasm at this moment.
Being carried by God Hao!
These few collaborations with Guo Hao had allowed Zhao Yang to taste too many benefits, because Guo Hao either didn't act, or when he did, he amazed the world with a single strike!
Generally speaking, whether it was the projects Guo Hao proposed or the experiments he designed, they were mostly of the highest tier!
Zhao Yang believed in him implicitly!
Following God Hao! There's meat to eat in every meal!
There are major projects!

"Alright." Guo Hao nodded, taking out a portable hard drive from his pocket and handing it to Zhao Yang.
"This is all confidential data. Do not take it out of the laboratory."
"Ah, alright."
Zhao Yang nodded.
This kind of data being top secret was only normal!
Zhao Yang could completely understand!

Looking at Zhao Yang's reaction, Guo Hao smiled.
"Alright, that's all. I will transfer the money to the laboratory account. If you need to buy consumables or other items, just purchase them yourself."
"Yes, yes!"
Zhao Yang nodded.
After saying that, Guo Hao gave Zhao Yang a few more instructions.
Then he left the laboratory, got into Xu Yuan's car, and quickly returned to his apartment on campus.

Looking at the small apartment of forty to fifty square meters before him, which was exceptionally warm, Guo Hao's eyes softened.
In fact, since Guo Hao became a Level 2 professor at Yanhang University, the leaders of Yanhang had wanted him to move into a larger housing unit within the university.
At least a luxury apartment of over a hundred square meters. After all, with Guo Hao's achievements, he fully deserved better treatment.
But he had declined.
First, because Guo Hao felt there was no need to go through so much trouble.
Second, such a cozy apartment was enough to house a young couple. This apartment was already warm enough!

Smiling, Guo Hao walked to his desk and turned on his computer.
He opened Weibo directly.
Sure enough, his Weibo was flooded with 99+ notifications everywhere, and his private messages had completely exploded.
People were constantly bombarding his private messages!
Many were seeking the truth from him, while some were directly cursing him.
Of course, there were also some who still supported him immensely, sending private messages to comfort him!
The various faces of the world were on full display.
Looking at the content of the private messages, the corner of Guo Hao's mouth curled up slightly.
How interesting.
Currently, his social media had completely fallen.

Pondering for a moment, Guo Hao began to draft a Weibo post.
If one is going to act, they must play the part fully. If he didn't respond, it would be a bit too strange.
"I have actually been in Luzhou for over three months. The reason is that three months ago, the EAST superconducting Tokamak nuclear fusion research center in Luzhou invited me to assist them in researching some materials related to controlled nuclear fusion. Coincidentally, my computational materials research had made some progress, so I went to EAST. As for the core burnout at EAST, I am very sorry. I can only say that it was an unexpected accident and a tragedy. At that time, I was merely a visiting scholar. Regarding what exactly happened when EAST burned out, I suggest everyone follow the news more. The reports there are mostly accurate. I was at the scene at the time and saw the Feynman diagram when the core burned. It was extremely bizarre, which is precisely the Feynman diagram I published in my paper... As for those petty people on the internet who have recently slandered my reputation with fabrications! I reserve the right to pursue legal responsibility and prosecute!"

Guo Hao wrote a very long essay.
Of course, it was a mix of truth and falsehood.
If it were entirely fake, it wouldn't fool anyone.
Only half-truths could intimidate people!
After finishing the essay, Guo Hao closed Weibo.
This essay should be able to scare off some people!
Guo Hao smiled. It was normal not to fool everyone, but at least it would prevent them from turning their gaze toward the field of controlled nuclear fusion!

Just as Guo Hao was preparing to continue calculations on controlled nuclear fusion, a notification appeared in his inbox.
"Dear Professor Guo Hao, we would like to organize a seminar regarding your Virtual Particles. We wonder if you have time to visit the Chou Nation; we will cover all your travel expenses."
The email was signed by Professor Witten.
This was a true giant in the field; the famous gravitational waves were pioneered by him!
Although up until now, the existence of gravitational waves had yet to be fully proven.
