The evidence in Fang Ning's case regarding the false accusation of plagiarism is conclusive, and there are basically no problems left. However, Ding Hao, Wang Ming, and others clearly have many cases against them, and these cases cannot be closed for the time being.
They should continue working and vacationing as usual, and will only need to reappear once the case is completely settled.
Shi Jing doesn't have much to do now, and after distributing all the work, she can relax a bit.
I had previously said I would visit the research institute to see Senior Brother Sun's work, but I was delayed due to an injury. Now I have the time again.
Shi Jing had visited the research center in Dingdu several times, but he had always only stayed outside and had never gone inside.
Research centers differ from national research institutes. Although management is strict, members of the public often visit. All that is needed is an invitation from the research institution and proper registration.
When Shi Jing arrived here, he naturally contacted Sun Xiangnan first.
After confirming the invitation information with Sun Xiangnan, the security personnel at the entrance registered Shi Jing.
She comes here very rarely; otherwise, she could get a visitor's pass so she wouldn't have to register every time she comes.
Upon entering the research center, the internal roads were very wide. Shi Jing drove directly to the research building where Sun Xiangnan was located.
As soon as she arrived at the research building, Shi Jing saw Rong Yu waiting downstairs. She rolled down the car window and greeted Rong Yu.
"Brother Yu, you're here too."
"Senior Brother Sun said you were coming today, so he asked me to come and pick you up," Rong Yu said.
He jogged a few steps and got into the passenger seat: "It's hard to park here. There's a temporary parking spot for visitors up ahead. Turn right at the intersection ahead."
It was Shi Jing's first time here, and she was completely unfamiliar with the place, so she just followed Rong Yu's directions and drove forward.
After driving for a while, you'll see a road sign. Turn right and you'll soon see an open-air parking lot. The parking lot isn't very big, but it was full of cars.
“Temporary visitors’ cars are parked here, separate from the researchers’ parking area,” Rong Yu explained.
After Shi Jing parked the car, the two of them got out.
It wasn't far from the parking lot to Sun Xiangnan's research building, and the two walked while asking him questions out of curiosity.
Aren't you busy lately?
"There is a new project that has just started preparations."
"That must be tough."
"With the help of my juniors, my advisor gave me a day off when he heard I was here today."
"Huh?" Shi Jing was somewhat surprised. Did she have that much influence?
Rong Yu's eyes were filled with laughter as she explained, "You may not know it, but you're quite well-known in our research center. After all, which research institution doesn't lack investment?"
Apart from a few research institutes that receive government funding, most research institutes face the need to attract investment. Shi Jing doesn't restrict the research direction of research units, is generous with funding, and doesn't interfere; some research units wouldn't like such an investor.
Professor Zhang's projects have no shortage of investment, but he also has students and younger generations.
Shi Jing quickly understood Rong Yu's meaning and couldn't help but laugh: "Teacher Zhang is really interesting."
The two walked to the research building, and Rong Yu pressed the button for Sun Xiangnan's research room.
There were quite a few people in Sun Xiangnan's research lab. After all, he was also a part-time teacher, and he had some students he admired. When the time mirror arrived, Sun Xiangnan was processing glasswares, so they didn't see him directly.
The young woman in the lab poured them water and explained, "Gentlemen, Professor Sun has something to take care of, he'll be out soon."
Through the glass, Shi Jing could vaguely see the interior of the research lab, but everyone was wearing white coats, masks, and hats, so it was hard to tell who was who at first glance.
"Okay, thank you." Taking the water glass and setting it aside, Shi Jing casually picked up a magazine from the bookshelf next to her.
There was a shelf in the reception room specifically for magazines. Shi Jing originally thought they were gossip magazines or celebrity interviews, but when she picked them up, she discovered that the magazines in this research room were actually academic in nature.
The book Shi Jing was holding was Nature. She flipped through it and recognized all the words, but the combinations were a bit complicated.
She wasn't a professional researcher, so she struggled to understand many of the terms.
Seeing her slightly furrowed brow, Rong Yu smiled and explained, "Senior Brother Sun has subscribed to many domestic and international academic journals to keep abreast of the latest academic information and valuable new research findings."
"Hmm. It's a pity I don't quite understand it." After all, it's like being in a completely different field.
Shi Jing put the magazine back on the bookshelf and took a sip of tea.
“In the past few days, several research institutes have contacted us wanting to apply for research funding. I haven’t finished reviewing the details yet, but one of them has a promising research direction,” Rong Yu said.
Shi Jing nodded, then remembered that Rong Yu also had a new research project to carry out recently.
Although Rong Yu helped him a lot, he was, after all, a professional researcher, not someone who conducted research and investigations. Constantly troubling him like this was taking up too much of his time.
However, it's not easy to recruit investment investigators with professional knowledge.
Although she has several assistants, none of them are truly skilled in this area.
"You'll be busy on your end too, don't overwork yourself. I'll try to hire a specialist assistant first."
"Hmm. Don't worry, we're still managing for now." Rong Yu understood Shi Jing's meaning and offered a reassuring remark.
The two waited for almost half an hour before Sun Xiangnan finally came out of the laboratory.
Upon learning that Shi Jing and the others were already waiting, he hurried to the reception room to meet them.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. There was a problem with one of the test results, which took some time."
"It's alright, I don't have anything else to do anyway." Shi Jing waved his hand dismissively. "Any new progress in your research lately? Is the funding sufficient?"
"It's enough," Sun Xiangnan said with a smile. "Don't worry, I'll let you know if I need anything."
"Would you like to go into the lab and take a look?"
Is it convenient?
"certainly."
Hearing Sun Xiangnan say this, Shi Jing naturally wouldn't refuse.
Since she's here, she must want to see the lab environment, after all, a lot of money has been invested.
Led by Sun Xiangnan, Shi Jing changed into a laboratory gown and took a look around the laboratory.
"We have discovered a new substance that has shown promising results in inhibiting the progression of blood diseases. If progress continues smoothly, it should have applications in many areas."
The discovery of a special substance often changes many research directions. Shi Jing knew that research was always risky and subject to change until the final result, but he was still very happy.
"I'll do my best to research it. Contact me if you need anything."
This is a beneficial thing for the country and its people, and it's very meaningful. That's precisely where the enjoyment of investment research projects lies.
