"Physics and chemistry in China are still at a primary stage."
"Yes, not to mention those high-end instruments, even the most common materials are relatively scarce."
In Gu Qingcheng's living room, gathered tonight are all elites in science.
They are either studying chemistry, physics, or are top students in medicine.
They all came from wealthy families, and after coming to the Ugly Country, they witnessed the advancement of Western countries.
Domestic industry had just begun to emerge, and the first batch of overseas students were working hard to develop the country through industry.
Without a complete industry, the development of disciplines such as physical chemistry will also be restricted.
"For example, the most common dry ice is available in China, but it is not yet the most commonly used laboratory consumable."
"Yes, I'm about to return to China. I wanted to compile a list of instruments and materials to bring back, but I found that there is a shortage of everything in China."
"...You guys are better off. I'm studying microphysics, and the lab requirements are even higher!"
As Wei Jingxi's classmates and friends talked, they began to sigh.
They are all full of enthusiasm to serve the country and are eager to return to their country immediately after completing their studies to display their talents.
But the reality is very cruel——
It is really difficult to rely on their own strength.
There are no instruments, no experimental supplies, and even few professional assistants.
If you think about it carefully, everyone will have a headache.
Disaster!
It’s too difficult!
Only when they really faced the difficulties did people admire the older generation of international students even more.
For example, Wei Jingxi's father, the founder of domestic physics-related majors, returned to China more than ten years ago and built a career from scratch. It was so difficult.
The key is that Principal Wei really persevered and planted seeds in the country.
Among these people, one or two are Principal Wei’s students, and it was with the help of Principal Wei that they came to study in the Ugly Country.
It is really difficult to understand the hardships and difficulties faced by our predecessors without experiencing them personally.
But they are already much better off, at least they have predecessors like Principal Wei paving the way for them.
In addition, there is——
"I'll figure out a way to deal with the instrument."
"After all, I'm a big shot in the finance department, and I have quite a bit of dirty money."
"...Jingxi, make a list and leave the rest to me!"
As a newly rich man, Gu Qingcheng has the air of a nouveau riche.
With a wave of his hand, he almost said, "Your Majesty will pay for all the consumption."
But everyone laughed.
They don’t really think that “Gu Wanqing” is a stinky capitalist.
None of them are superficial people. After studying in the ugly country for a few years, they know that doing business is also a science.
Well, "finance".
Even though making money is not a noble subject, it does require a lot of talent.
Especially in the past two or three years, Wall Street in the United States has become the craziest and most splendid stage.
Even those who are obsessed with studying have seen or heard of the myth of someone getting rich overnight.
Anyone who can dominate Wall Street and make huge fortunes in just a few months is definitely not an ordinary person.
Several of their classmates or good friends heard that they knew a woman named Ms. Gu who was making a lot of money on Wall Street, and they were very envious and admired her.
"Even ugly Chinese people are scrambling to make friends with Ms. Gu." This kind of recognition is simply the greatest compliment for the Chinese people of this era who are both self-deprecating and self-reliant.
In the future, netizens might criticize this phenomenon like this: "Worshiping foreigners and fawning on foreigners!" Do Chinese people's values still need to be judged by a foreigner?
However, in that era, the Celestial Empire was in turmoil and weak, and the Chinese people had a sense of inferiority in their bones and a certain admiration for Western advancement and science.
Completely denying their own culture and completely accepting everything from the West... Things that seem incredible in later generations happened in this era.
And it is still so natural, and has countless fans.
What’s even sadder is that the people who made these suggestions are not actually half a million people, but people who love the land beneath their feet immensely.
...In the current context, Gu Qingcheng's stock god has been sought after by foreigners, so domestic international students will not regard her as a "businessman" among the four classes of scholars, farmers, artisans and merchants, but as "Ms. Gu who turns stones into gold."
It is a great honor to receive an invitation from Ms. Gu and sit in her living room to talk freely.
Of course, there is a more important reason why Gu Qingcheng can truly gain the respect of these elites besides this one point -
First, although Ms. Gu switched to finance, she is still a talented woman who can cross fields at will.
It only took one or two months for him to master physics.
I heard that he gained the friendship of the Child family with a blueprint of the latest engine.
Second, Ms. Gu is generous and kind. She has sponsored many international students from poor families.
Even these students, who came from relatively wealthy families, received experimental materials donated by Ms. Gu.
Doing experiments is really expensive.
If these science students want to graduate successfully, they need to write valuable papers.
Writing a paper requires not only sufficient theory but also detailed experimental data.
These are very expensive!
Ms. Gu provided help in all of these.
People are not ungrateful and would not eat with a bowl in hand and curse when they put the bowl down.
They don’t enjoy the food when they are eating, but when they are full they find the food smells like money.
When I'm hungry again, I'll enjoy the gifts from the "profiteers" with peace of mind again, and then I'll look down on them and despise them again.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
