hand over talents to the country

When the plane landed, Ji Ke received a call.

It was called by Professor Xu, an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

Ji Ke has been in contact with Professor Xu since the second year of master's degree.

Because Professor Xu saw the article published by Ji Ke and felt that he was a rare talent.

Ji Ke had an average phone call with Professor Xu every half a month. Basically, Professor Xu took the initiative to call and asked him how his life abroad was and what plans he had for the future.

At the end of the phone call, she secretly revealed that she hoped that talents like Ji Ke could return to China to develop after graduation.

Ji Ke was very pleasantly surprised when he heard Professor Xu invite him for the first time.

He originally intended to return to China, but before he expressed his intention to return to China, a senior professor like Mr. Xu contacted him.

It's like a person desperately looking for a water source in the desert. Before he even started looking, the water source is in front of him. This kind of ecstasy is beyond words.

After getting off the plane, the first thing Ji Ke did was to meet Professor Xu at the Beijing Branch of the Academy of Sciences.

In fact, before graduation, Ji Ke would meet Professor Xu every time he came back from vacation.

But the previous few meeting places were in less formal places like coffee shops and restaurants. The chats would focus on the topic of returning to China, but more of the chats were about daily life.

Compared with a professor and a student, the relationship between the two is more like a close year-end friendship.

It is the first time that we have a formal meeting on a formal occasion like today.

When Ji Ke arrived at the institute, the people who greeted him at the door were already waiting.

It was a chubby young man wearing thick glasses. He was still wearing a white coat, so he should be in a hurry to come out.

According to Professor Xu, this person is called Chen Ping and is her assistant.

Ji Ke got out of the car, pulled the suitcase and walked towards the young man wearing glasses, "Hello, is this Mr. Chen Ping?"

Hearing the voice, Chen Ping turned his head, looked at Ji Ke, then adjusted his glasses, narrowed his eyes, looked at him more carefully, and asked with some uncertainty: "Hello, you...is Ji Ke?"

"it's me."

Chen Ping took a breath, and Ji Ke heard him muttering in a voice that he thought was small but actually did not, "My God, why are you also doing research, you look like a model, and I look like a social animal programmer."

Ji Ke: "..."

You don't have to.

Chen Ping realized that he had lost his composure, and coughed in embarrassment, "Well, go in quickly, Teacher Xu is still waiting."

Ji Ke nodded, "OK."

Chen Ping led Ji Ke in, and when he heard the sound of the rollers rubbing against the ground, he looked back and found that Ji Ke was still pulling the box.

Just now I was patronizing to see that Ji Ke looked good, but now I can actually find that Ji Ke's clothes are a little wrinkled.

"You came here just after getting off the plane?"

"Yeah." Ji Ke said: "When I got off the plane, Teacher Xu said that she had already arrived at the research institute. I was afraid she would wait for a long time."

Chen Ping smiled, "Hey, you look so gaudy, why are you so sincere?"

"Mr. Xu is waiting for you while he is busy. Don't delay things. How inconvenient it is for you to carry such a big box."

"It's okay, pulling the suitcase will not delay the conversation. And I want to come here soon," Ji Ke said: "I have been studying in the United States for eight years, and I can hardly speak English. I urgently need to talk to the teachers in China. Exchange academic work in Chinese."

Chen Ping was originally skeptical of Ji Ke, because Ji Ke's appearance really does not look like a person willing to do research honestly, he is more like the kind of person who regards the status of a scientific researcher as a condition for his charm bonus The second generation of dudes.

But seeing that Ji Ke came to report to the institute so eagerly, and didn't even want to delay the time to go home to put his luggage, he felt that he judged people by their appearance.

Ji Ke's attitude is really not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Chen Ping walked all the way, explaining to Ji Ke the research institute, which building is dedicated to experiments, which building is used for practical testing, where to find teachers, where to eat, where to rest, etc. .

After Ji Ke had almost figured out the topography of the institute, the two also walked to Professor Xu's office.

Pushing open the door, Ji Ke saw that Professor Xu was reading literature with his brows furrowed.

"Teacher Xu." Chen Ping called her, "Ji Ke is here."

Professor Xu raised her head when she heard the movement and saw Ji Ke clearly. She hurriedly took off her glasses and stood up excitedly, "Ji Ke! Finally you're here!"

Because in the Academy of Sciences, Professor Xu did not dress casually as usual, but wore a uniform white coat.

She is 50 years old, her hair is already gray, and her face has been left with traces of vicissitudes of life, but her eyes are not as cloudy as ordinary middle-aged and elderly people, but they are shining, and they seem to be full of infinite vitality and hope.

Ji Ke stepped forward to hug Professor Xu, "I'm also happy, finally here."

Professor Xu is partial to talents. She stroked Ji Ke's back lovingly, like stroking a child she hadn't seen for a long time, expressing her longing enough before letting him go.

"Come, come, stop standing, sit down."

As she spoke, she sat back in her seat.

Chen Ping came over with two cups of tea, put one cup in front of the two, and then backed out.

Professor Xu didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out a stack of thick bound A4 paper.

On the first page of the cover, there are four large characters: non-disclosure agreement.

Professor Xu said: "We have had many conversations before. I know your ideal, so I don't discuss anything with you. This is a confidentiality agreement for participating in the design and construction of the aircraft carrier. You can take a look."

"The preparations for the construction of this aircraft carrier began four years ago. It was decided to start construction at the beginning of this year. Now we are recruiting researchers and workers for the plan. It is expected to officially start in the middle of next year."

"Please take a closer look at the confidentiality agreement. Don't rush to sign it now. I can give you a week to consider it."

Ji Ke glanced roughly, and only saw the estimated construction time clearly, then turned to the end of the contract and picked up a pen to sign.

"Hey——" Professor Xu pressed his hand, "Is it signed now? Why don't you take a closer look at such a thick agreement?"

Although many researchers who decided to join the project read the agreement and didn't even want to sign it directly, they had read the agreement anyway, and Ji Ke didn't even read it.

"It's nothing to see." Ji Ke said with a smile: "This is the ideal I have had since I was a teenager. No matter how unfair the content of this agreement is, I will sign it."

"What's more, how can the country come up with an unfair agreement when it recruits talents? Don't worry at all."

"With the few minutes of reading the agreement, I might as well go back and take a shower early. It's summer, and I've been on a plane for more than ten hours. Now I feel sticky all over my body, and I'm so uncomfortable."

Professor Xu was taken aback by what he said, "You child."

She withdrew her hand and didn't stop Ji Ke's movement, but still said: "Ji Ke, I know you have great ambitions, but as one of the people in charge of this project, I still have to tell you."

"Although our country has become stronger, we don't need to do any research work like before, and we have to hide it, and we dare not let other countries know about it."

"But even then, your work is still kept secret."

"The construction of an aircraft carrier is a very large project. Its construction time is based on 'years'. During these years, you are not allowed to disclose your work to anyone, and even your range of activities is not free when necessary. Yes, you can only stay at the construction base."

"Have you really thought it through, to sign this agreement, to participate in this work?"

Ji Ke also put away his joking attitude. He looked at Professor Xu with unprecedented seriousness in his eyes.

"I've made up my mind, and I'm willing." He said, "I'm willing to give my all for this project and for the motherland!"

The two looked at each other silently for three seconds, and the seriousness on Professor Xu's face gradually faded.

"Okay." She smiled and gave Kirby a 'please' gesture, "Then sign."

Ji Ke bowed his head and signed his own name at the end of the agreement.

This is the first time he has written Chinese characters since he officially returned to China. He wrote his name on the "Confidentiality Agreement for Aircraft Carrier Construction" that he had been thinking about for ten years.

very nice.

Ji Ke carefully closed the confidentiality agreement and pushed it back to Professor Xu.

Professor Xu put the agreement into a folder, and then put it together with the agreements that had already been signed.

Ji Ke also saw the neat blue folders in the cabinet, and he asked Professor Xu: "Are these agreements signed by other researchers?"

"Yes." Professor Xu looked at them with a smile in his eyes, "When the plan was just announced, all the researchers were scrambling to get involved."

"Those young boys and girls, not young old boys and old girls, were all in a hurry. After reading the agreement, they signed it on the same day without any hesitation."

She said, looking back at Ji Ke, "You are more anxious than them, you didn't even look at it."

Ji Ke rubbed his neck in embarrassment, "I've been thinking about it for ten years, it's normal to be anxious."

Professor Xu raised his hand and gently touched those folders, "How wonderful, it is because of talents like you who have dedicated themselves to the motherland that our country can be as prosperous as it is today."

"thank you all."

"You too." Ji Ke walked to her side and looked up at the folders together, "Didn't you also dedicate your life to the motherland?"

Professor Xu looked back at him, and suddenly laughed out of embarrassment, "Why are you still getting emotional, hurry up, lock the cabinet, you can't throw these things away."

She closed the cabinet door, locked it and asked Ji Ke: "It will be more than a year before the construction of the aircraft carrier officially starts. Do you have any other plans for more than a year? If not, I will arrange work for you."

"Okay." Ji Ke said, "I don't have any plans. Not only do I have no plans, I don't even have a place to live. It would be great if you can directly arrange a job in the Academy of Sciences for me, including room and board. "

"But are you opening the back door for me? If others want to work here, they have to take an exam, right?"

"If I didn't read the articles you published and arranged for you directly, that would be called opening the back door." Professor Xu sat back on the chair, "But I have read the articles you published, so this is not called opening the back door, it is called soliciting overseas. Talents return home."

Ji Ke was amused, "Okay, then please arrange a job for me."

Professor Xu knew about Ji Ke's family situation, and in order to avoid having to stay in a hotel for returnees, she quickly arranged a dormitory for Ji Ke.

Ji Ke first went to the dormitory to put his luggage, take a shower and change clothes, and then went back to go through various procedures.

He needed to adjust the jet lag, and Professor Xu specially gave him three days off to rest before returning to work.

Ji Ke was really exhausted all the way. He went to the dormitory and slept for a day and a night. After he regained his energy, he began to use the vacation to socialize.

It's social, but it's actually going to meet eight other people from the Mathematical Modeling Society.

Among the nine, Ji Ke came back the latest.

After the global live broadcast exam, many students in the school changed directions, but few of them could persevere.

Fortunately, all nine of them persevered.

Among them, Cheng Hao even participated in the aircraft carrier construction plan just like him.

Those eight people were waiting for Ji Ke. Now that Ji Ke was free, they got together again.

The place for the dinner was a five-star hotel, and Ji Ke took a taxi to the place at seven o'clock in the evening.

Originally they planned to eat hot pot at the shabu-shabu shop in front of the original school, but that shop was closed, so they had to choose a different restaurant.

Ji Ke was the most leisurely one among them. He had nothing to do all day, so he was the first one to come.

After waiting in the private room for 10 minutes and no one came, he felt a little bored, so he went out for a walk.

This turn, I ran into an acquaintance.

When passing the bathroom, Ji Ke saw that the figure lying on the sink vomiting was very familiar, but he couldn't tell where he was familiar, so his pace couldn't help but slow down a little.

Then he saw the man suddenly raised his head, and through the mirror, he saw the man's face clearly.

Ji Ling.

Ji Ling was wearing a suit, probably because he was too drunk and lost his image.

His clothes were wrinkled, his hair was a bit messy, and his face was covered with water droplets from the mouthwash just now.

Ji Ke thought it was strange, Ji's family was considered a respectable family, and Ji's father still valued honor so much, how could he let Ji Ling come out and drink like this?

And on this occasion, Ji Ling's dress should be for entertainment, who doesn't give Ji family face so much and make Ji Ling look like this?

Before Ji Ke could finish his doubts, he saw a middle-aged man coming out of the men's room.

The man was not tall, not fat, but he had a beer belly and not much hair. The point was that he was really ugly.

The middle-aged man walked straight towards Ji Ling and slapped Ji Ling's ass.

Ji Ke stared blankly.

Good guy, is this... taking advantage of Ji Ling?

However, Ji Ling did not show fury as Ji Ke expected, but he half-pushed and approached the man's arms, and said in a sweet voice: "Mr. Wang, don't be here..."

Ji Ke took back the steps he had just taken to be brave.

That President Wang didn't soften his hands because of Ji Ling's coquettishness, but directly put his hand into the other's pants.

I don't know if this person is really skilled or something, anyway, Ji Ling is very charming.

If this were replaced by another person, I'm afraid it would be hard to hear on the spot.

It's a pity that Ji Ke didn't have that kind of worldly desire, he just frowned, raised his hand to rub the goose bumps on his body, and left the bathroom at a faster pace.

Originally, he wanted to come out to take a breath, but when he encountered such a scene, Ji Ke was not in the mood to wander around outside, and turned his head back to the box.

Fortunately, when he went back, someone had already come, who could talk to him and alleviate the impact of the scene just now.

Zhou Yang, Cheng Hao and Dong Keyu came first.

The three of them were talking, and when they saw Ji Ke pushing the door in, they quickly got up to greet him.

"Didn't you come here a long time ago? Why didn't you see anyone after you came?"

"That's right, seeing your clothes in the room, I thought you were captured by aliens."

"Eh? Are you okay? I don't think your face is right."

Ji Ke smiled, "Nothing."

"Is it all right?"

Ji Ke thought for a while, but still couldn't hold back his curiosity, and said, "I'm fine, but just saw a more shocking scene."

These words attracted the attention of the three of them.

Ji Ke went on to say, "I saw Ji Ling."

The three of them were stunned for three seconds when they heard the words, Dong Keyu spoke first, and asked in a daze, "Who is Ji Ling?"

Ji Ke: "..."

Zhou Yang reminded: "It's the younger brother of Ji Ke's adoptive father's family."

"Oh—he!" Dong Keyu suddenly realized, "I just said that the name sounds so familiar."

As he said that, he immediately put on a disgusted expression, "Isn't he doing well recently? That's right, Ji's family is bankrupt, so it's no wonder he's doing well."

"But he deserves it, who made him so vicious, he must be punished."

Ji Ke was a little confused.

bankruptcy?The Ji family is about to go bankrupt?

He devoted all his attention to his studies, and his memory was still in the heyday of Ji's family in high school. How could such a big family go bankrupt?

And isn't Ji Ling's popularity very good?Even if these people had a good relationship with him, they wouldn't insult Ji Ling. Why did their attitude suddenly change?

Looking at Ji Ke's expression, the three of them knew that he didn't know anything.

Cheng Hao explained: "You never watch financial news, it's normal if you don't know."

"Ji Yongshou, chairman of the Ji family, your former adoptive father, suddenly became a vegetable two years ago."

"Chairman Ji had an accident, and no one is in charge of such a big company. In order to prevent other people from seizing power, Ji Ling stepped in."

"But this Ji Ling, he doesn't have the skills. The company went bankrupt within two years after he got it."

"Employees fled and scattered. In order to recover the loss, Ji Ling put all his money into investment, but ended up losing everything and owed a whole lot of debt."

"The Ji family officially declared bankruptcy a few days ago. It is said that Ji Ling is acting as a favor to others in order to pay off the debt."

The current situation is seriously inconsistent with Ji Ke's cognition, he was stunned for two seconds before recovering.

"I'm more curious, why did Ji Yongshou suddenly become a vegetable?"

"Ji Ling is to blame!" Dong Keyu interjected, "Although this matter has not been resolved on the table, everyone knows it well."

"At that time, Ji Ling's mother also felt that this matter was strange. She thought that someone was going to kill Ji Yongshou, so she hired several private detectives to find Ji Yongshou's murderer with great fanfare."

"Hey! After looking around, the murderer is at my home!"

"Ji Ling is the only heir of their family. His mother would not dare to let him be arrested for intentional murder, so after knowing that Ji Yongshou was the murderer, his mother hurriedly asked the detectives to destroy all the evidence they found, and pretended that this was the case. It was an accident."

"At that time, this incident caused a lot of trouble in the business district of Beijing. It was a joke for people."

Ji Ke was shocked, "This...Whether it's Ji Ling or Mrs. Ji, it's illegal to do this, right?"

"It's against the law. Ji Ling's mother deliberately concealed it before. The police couldn't find any evidence, so it didn't matter."

Dong Keyu said: "Now, Ji's family is bankrupt, and I don't have the ability to hide it. The police are already investigating this matter."

"Ji Ling went to the benefactor to hide from the police."

Ji Ke still couldn't figure it out, "Then why did he poison Ji Yongshou?"

Dong Keyu lowered his voice, "It is said that Ji Yongshou is dissatisfied with Ji Ling, and he plans to get another child to practice trumpet."

Ji Ke understood that the reason for Ji Ling's madness was still the same, fearing that his position as heir would be taken away.

He remembered the plot about this world that he had received several years ago.

In the original plot, it was not written that Ji Yongshou became a vegetable. It is probably because the original owner was used as a foil in the original plot. Ji Ling is very good, so he is the heir, and there is no need to play tricks.

Now the heir is not Ji Ling, so he has to use a special method to get the inheritance right.

But it's a pity that Ji Ling doesn't know how to be a qualified chairman, so even if the company is in his hands, it's useless.

Ji Ke remembered Cheng Hao scolding Ji Ling just now, "So you don't like him because he poisoned your own father?"

"Of course not. This is a family grievance. I don't comment. I hate him because of you," Cheng Hao said. know about the school."

"The one who claimed to be your nanny's son, the one who posted about you bullying Ji Ling, has come to our school."

"He said that our live broadcast test moved him very much. People like you should not be infamous, so he released the recording of his previous transaction with Ji Ling."

"Fuck, I only realized after listening to those recordings that there really are such idle and vicious people in this world!"

It turned out to be the case.

Ji Ke recalled that during that time, his protagonist level had indeed increased by 5 points. He was busy at the time, so he didn't care why. Now it seems that his grievances should be cleared.

After talking about Ji Ling's topic, the other five people also came one after another.

Compared with the gossip about Ji's family, the ideals and future of the nine of them are naturally more important, so none of them brought up this topic after that.

Returning to their hometown, the nine people gathered for this meal until two o'clock in the morning.

Except for Ji Ke, all of them had cars and drivers, and it was not easy to take a taxi at night, so Ji Ke returned to the Academy of Sciences in the car of Cheng Hao, who was the most sober.

When picking up the car in the parking lot, Ji Ke saw Ji Ling again.

He was so drunk that he passed out, and was taken advantage of by the previous Mr. Wang and put into the car.

520 couldn't help but sighed, "The world is really impermanent. Who would have thought that Shou, who was supposed to be the protagonist in this world, would end up in this situation."

Ji Ke just watched Mr. Wang's car leave expressionlessly, without speaking.

520 couldn't help asking: "Host, do you feel guilty seeing Ji Ling like this?"

"Guilty?" Ji Ke was puzzled, "Why should I feel guilty?"

"He became like this because of your arrival."

Ji Ke thought it was funny, "Why are you such a saint?"

"You have to figure out a causal relationship. It's because Ji Ling made the original Ji Ke crazy first, so Ji Ke felt resentful and wanted to change his life, and that's why I came here."

"He is pitiful, isn't the original Ji Ke pitiful?"

"Indeed, the main reason for the current situation is that Ji Yongshou is a scumbag, and Ji Ling is also a victim. But no matter how wronged Ji Ling is, he shouldn't take his grievances on Ji Ke, an innocent person."

"Ji Lingming knows what kind of person Ji Yongshou is, and he still wants to hurt innocent people for him. Who can be blamed for this?"

The emotion in 520's heart was instantly dispelled by Ji Ke's analysis, "I'm sorry, I'm the wrong host! You're right, everything you said is right! QAQ"

The car parked steadily at the gate of the Academy of Sciences. Ji Ke greeted Cheng Hao and got out of the car.

He didn't go back to the dormitory immediately, but went to the nearby police station.

According to Cheng Hao and the others, Ji Ling committed murder on purpose. Although he did not cause death, he should be punished by law.

Of course, he also sincerely believed that even if Ji Ling went into labor reform, it would be better than living without dignity like this.
