After serving as an assistant for several days, Ye Yi realized that scientific research was not as simple as he had imagined.
Especially in a world where scientific progress is largely blocked.
Technology in this world has stagnated for a full twenty years.
This gives you an idea of how difficult these scientific research experiments were.
On this day, Ye Qiushou suddenly said to Ye Yi.
"I've just received approval for a small project about using cell modification to cure cancer. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yi was stunned and said in disbelief.
"Is using cell manipulation to cure cancer a small-scale project?"
Hearing Ye Yi's confusion, Ye Qiushou couldn't help but chuckle and said.
"No one can think they can research this kind of project. As for why this project appears every year, it's just to meet a small target."
"So this is something like a vanity project?" Ye Yi couldn't help but say.
Ye Qiushou smiled and nodded, then added.
"But it's still very good for getting familiar with research processes and methods."
“Okay, I understand.” Ye Yi’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
Although Ye Qiushou told Ye Yi that this project was just a vanity project, Ye Yi decided to do his best to complete it.
After all, Ye Yi doesn't have much time left.
Next, one of Ye Qiushou's assistants led Ye Yi to the location of that small project.
After all, Ye Qiushou, as the person in charge of this mysterious project, was extremely busy.
On his way to the project research lab, Ye Yi stared in disbelief at the list in his hand.
Although this project was more of a prestige project, the staff it had was very well-organized.
The various projects had clear divisions of labor, but what surprised Ye Yi even more was that the vast majority of the members of this project were doctoral students.
Even the lowest-ranking researchers are master's degree graduates. Such a lineup does put some pressure on Ye Yi, who hasn't even graduated from high school yet.
However, Ye Yi didn't think too much about it. His grandfather had explained it very clearly to him before, that this was just a face-saving project.
Therefore, even if it hasn't been researched, there won't be too many problems.
Arriving at the project's research site, all the researchers were brought together.
"Let me introduce you all. This person will be the person in charge of your project," said Ye Qiushou's assistant.
Ye Yi immediately followed suit and introduced himself.
"My name is Ye Yi, and I will be in charge of this project. I hope everyone will give me their help."
After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
It wasn't until Ye Qiushou's assistant started clapping that the people below reluctantly joined in.
They were very resistant to Ye Yi's arrival, after all, he was just a young upstart who became their boss as soon as he arrived.
This naturally displeased these high-achieving individuals who had already been working for several years.
However, because Ye Yi's grandfather was Ye Qiushou, no one felt comfortable refusing.
Someone couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"Sigh, really, what Old Ye did was a bit unethical."
"That's right. To do something like this just to gild the lily of his grandson, I used to think that Old Master Ye was a man of both high moral character and great skill."
Although these people spoke very softly, Ye Yi's martial arts internal strength allowed him to hear everything they said.
Ye Yi immediately frowned.
These people claimed they had no problems, but the issue involved his grandfather, which made Ye Yi very dissatisfied.
He couldn't help but speak earnestly to the people below.
“I know that many of you think I’m just here to gain experience. That’s why you’re unhappy with me being in charge of this project. You’re even unhappy with how Elder Ye arranged it. But I believe that you will definitely change your minds after the project is completed.”
The crowd below fell silent, and everyone turned their attention to Ye Yi.
"I know you all think this project is just a slacking-off project. So you don't really care whether it succeeds or not. But I want to ask you, have you thought about the lofty status you'll achieve in biology and the significant contributions you'll make to China if this project succeeds? Aren't those things within your reach? It wouldn't be a bad thing to be remembered in history, would it?"
Ye Yi's words caused those below to breathe heavily.
At this moment, Ye Yi continued.
"I guarantee here that for the next two months, as long as you completely obey my orders, I guarantee with my future prospects that you will absolutely be able to obtain this precious jewel."
Ye Yi's words caused the people below to change their expressions, at least their eyes became serious.
Ye Qiushou, Ye Yi's assistant, glanced at Ye Yi with surprise, but didn't say anything.
After gaining everyone's trust, Ye Yi immediately immersed himself in scientific research.
This swift and decisive action slightly increased the researchers' trust in him.
Ye Qiushou's assistant also left quietly.
On the first day, Ye Yi assigned everyone their respective duties.
Instead of immediately pointing fingers and giving instructions, he observed carefully.
However, Ye Yi felt a bit irritated in the laboratory because most of these experiments were progressing extremely slowly.
In Ye Yi's Star Sea Laboratory, the research speed is much faster than here.
Therefore, Ye Yi was very dissatisfied with the slow progress here, but he did not say anything.
And just like that, the first day passed quickly.
That evening, during dinner, Ye Yi was called over by Ye Qiushou.
Upon seeing Ye Yi, Ye Qiushou didn't say anything.
The two stared at each other in silence.
Finally, Ye Qiushou could no longer hold back and spoke earnestly.
"I didn't think this through. I will take responsibility for what you've said."
Ye Yi said with a serious expression.
"Grandpa, don't worry. I will definitely win the project."
Seeing the stubborn Ye Yi, Ye Qiushou waved helplessly, signaling Ye Yi to leave first.
Ye Yi bent down and left.
Ye Qiushou was prepared to take full responsibility for Ye Yi's situation.
No matter what happens, it absolutely cannot affect Ye Yi.
These are all of Ye Qiushou's thoughts.
This is not only because Ye Yi is his grandson, but also because Ye Yi's talent makes it worthwhile for Ye Qiushou to do this.
At this point, Ye Qiushou also didn't believe that Ye Yi could win the project.
After returning to his room, Ye Yi immediately entered his own starry world and began his research.
Because Ye Yi is also holding his breath, and now no one believes that Ye Yi can accomplish it.
But Ye Yi wanted to take on this project and show everyone what it was all about.
