Xie Yun quickly completed all the procedures for the Semiconductor Research Institute.
Zheng Yuehua was stunned.
"Ah! You wrote the application for yourself, approved it for yourself, and sent the documents to yourself!"
Zheng Shuhua smiled, her eyes narrowing into slits. "Don't make a fuss. Our Xiao Xie is the deputy county magistrate in charge of education and scientific research, with full authority over these matters. Besides, given the current situation, these are just stopgap measures. Besides, there are so many of us here, and the process is open and transparent. Xiao Xie didn't miss a single step!"
Zheng Yuehua: “…”
His eyes rolled as he began to praise, "Xiao Xie, you are truly incredibly smart and know how to adapt to changing circumstances. If only I had met you a few years earlier, I wouldn't have wasted so many years!"
Xie Yun: “…”
She hung the institute's sign at the gate and sent out letters requesting to transfer personnel to Qushui County for labor reform.
Then, Xie Yun went to the county and asked Secretary Li to communicate with the other party by phone again and ask them to release the person as soon as possible.
Then, Xie Yunxian went to the provincial party committee and directly found Secretary Wang Zhensheng and told him: "We have built a new semiconductor research institute."
Wang Zhensheng: "The country is now paying attention to this. In the past few years, dozens of integrated circuit factories have been built across the country. As a result, most of the products produced are substandard."
His resignation was partly due to this incident. At the time, Eastern Province also wanted to build a factory, but he firmly opposed it. Without the technology, building such a factory would be foolish.
"I know about this. I'm not building a factory right now, I'm doing research. One expert has already arrived, and several more are being seconded from other places."
"Do you need help? I can help you coordinate it."
"Not for now. If they don't let me go, I'll ask you for help again."
"Okay. If you need anything, just come over. If you don't have time, you can call me."
"I understand. I'm going to Beijing to ask the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building for money and equipment to conduct integrated circuit research. We need to build a laboratory."
Secretary Wang said, "Wait a minute, let me think about it."
Xie Yun: “…”
Wang Zhensheng thought for a moment and said, "Let's build a real research institute! Let's restructure this institute. The medical school, teachers' college, and vocational and technical school built by Qushui County before are separate from the research institute. These three are completely your Qushui County.
Upgrade the institute's status to provincial level, change its name to 'Eastern Province Academy of Sciences', and reorganize its various research institutes."
The Eastern Province originally had an Eastern Province branch of the Academy of Sciences, but this branch was abolished after only four years. This is a good opportunity to rebuild the Eastern Province's own Academy of Sciences and enhance the province's scientific research capabilities.
He lowered his voice and said to Xie Yun, "Binbin, I feel like the dawn has arrived. The day is about to break. Our institute has played such a significant role in the past few years. The current state is unworthy of your contributions. Write an application and I'll approve it for you."
The province gave you money for construction, and you built office buildings, laboratories, and dormitories. Roads and railways were all connected. Even after order was restored, this academy remained in Qushui County. This is the honor Qushui County deserves. Over those years, you kept the nation ablaze with life.
Xie Yun was particularly easily excited right now. Hearing Wang Zhensheng say this, his eyes couldn't help but warm up again. "We can build Qushui County into a scientific research base for Eastern Province and a national center for scientific and technological exchange."
Wang Zhensheng nodded. "Let's build the Academy of Sciences first. I'll have the Provincial Planning Institute make a plan for you. Do you need my help when you go to the capital to get something?"
"Not for now. The First Ministry of Machine Building is helping us connect, and our new expert has connections at the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building, so he's a voice. I don't think it's a big problem. Besides, I have the research plan. It was written by our new expert who worked all night long."
Wang Zhensheng nodded. "Okay, then I wish you immediate success. If you have any questions, call me and I can go over and help you with your connections. But I don't think it's necessary. You have strong connections already."

Xie Yun stayed in the provincial capital for a day, and Wang Zhensheng prepared several documents, including "Resolution on the Establishment of the Eastern Provincial Academy of Sciences", "List of the Preparatory Committee", and "Resolution on the Appointment of Xie Yun as Party Secretary and President of the Eastern Provincial Academy of Sciences", all of which were stamped with official seals.
Wang Zhensheng told her, "Just tell the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building clearly that our Poor and Lower-Middle Peasants Research Institute is going to be reformed. Because of the previous achievements, the Eastern Province has decided to establish an Academy of Sciences based on the Institute. This is a provincial research institution, and the Provincial Party Committee has already approved it."
Xie Yun agreed with a smile.
Although it may not be used, Secretary Wang’s intention is still very good.
After she left, Wang Zhensheng began drafting a document proposing to develop Qushui County into a research base for eastern China and a national center for scientific exchange. He wrote down his ideas first; actual implementation would require some time. Once order was restored, he could bring the matter to the attention of the State Council. Xiao Xie had done so much; there was no reason not to let the world know.
Xie's contributions are indispensable to the country's future solid scientific and technological foundation, enabling it to compete with other countries worldwide. This work, laying the foundation for the country, is of immeasurable importance.
Thinking back to Xie Yun's words about "not building a factory for now," he felt that there might be more to come. He wanted to talk to Xie Yun again sometime. The development of electronic technology was a major trend, and research ultimately had to be transformed into productive capacity. He also wanted to hear Xie Yun's opinion.

When Xie Yun arrived in the capital, he first went to the First Ministry of Machine Building to find Minister Liu, and then under his leadership went to the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building to meet Minister Yuan.
With previous research results as a foundation and the endorsement of two ministers, Minister Yuan had great confidence in the research capabilities of Xie Yun and his institute. However, he still convened experts to review the integrated circuit research project application submitted by Xie Yun. After recognizing their professionalism, the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building generously gave them 500,000 yuan.
At the same time, Xie Yun was given many notes, asking her to purchase the relevant equipment herself. She was also given some research samples, many of which were purchased from abroad.
Zhao Pengfei was worried about her going back alone, so he specially sent someone from the Iron and Steel Research Institute to accompany her back. This gave her a chance to communicate with Pan Changqing and others, and the people from the Iron and Steel Research Institute were also happy to do so.

Xie Yun gained a lot from this business trip.
Taoyuan Commune started a new round of construction.
The new academy was built in a separate area of the cadre school, and it would not affect everyone's work. Furthermore, Wang Zhensheng suggested that the existing adobe and brick buildings should be carefully preserved, as they were a mark of the times. In the years to come, this place might become a historical relic, the "former site of the academy," and a base for patriotic education.
