37: Nuclear Energy Research Base: Who is this Zhang Yuanhang?

“Damn it!”

Zhang Hai cursed as he looked at the email. The Hua Xia Medal, which he thought was almost his, had been snatched away.

Just as Zhang Hai was about to pick up his phone to call and question, the phone rang.

It was Academician Song, the head of the Nuclear Energy Research Base. Zhang Hai was immediately moved, mistakenly thinking that Academician Song knew his Hua Xia Medal had been snatched and was calling specifically to scheme on his behalf.

“Hello, Old Song…”

However, Zhang Hai’s words were cut off before he could finish.

Academician Song’s excited voice came from the other end, “Old Zhang, have you seen the data and video sent by China's Top Leader?”

“It’s truly astounding. I never imagined there was such a hidden master in our country.”

“With all due respect, I feel that master might even be more formidable than you, Old Zhang, in nuclear energy research.”

Hearing Academician Song’s words, Zhang Hai’s face had become extremely grim. If murder weren't illegal, Zhang Hai would now want to grab an ammunition depot and turn Academician Song into a sieve.

Zhang Hai’s student now truly wished to dig a hole and bury himself, to avoid being used as a punching bag by Zhang Hai later.

“Oh, by the way, Old Zhang, has your nomination for the Hua Xia Medal come through?”

“I heard the other two nominations have already been confirmed. I congratulate you in advance!”

A hint of envy appeared in Academician Song’s tone. As the head of the Nuclear Energy Research Base, he had never received a Hua Xia Medal.

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it. Now, Zhang Hai felt like he could eat Academician Song alive. Beside him, Zhang Hai's student kept screaming inwardly: Academician Song, please shut up, my teacher is about to explode!!!

“It came through, but my nomination was snatched.”

Zhang Hai said expressionlessly.

“What?!”

Academician Song’s heart jolted. He had received news that Zhang Hai was indeed getting the Hua Xia Medal, and it was to be announced tomorrow. How could it possibly be snatched today???

“Who snatched it?”

“Damn it, we’ll go cause trouble for him!”

Academician Song said angrily. How dare someone bully a person from our Nuclear Energy Research Base? Do they have a death wish!

“It’s that master you just mentioned. He snatched it from me.”

Zhang Hai said with a resentful voice. Academician Song on the other end of the phone awkwardly held his device, realizing he had unknowingly stabbed his colleague so many times just now.

“Cough, cough!”

Academician Song awkwardly coughed a few times to ease the tension.

At this moment, Zhang Hai’s student let out a huge sigh of relief. Academician Song finally realized!

“Old Zhang, what do you plan to do now?”

Academician Song asked weakly. After seeing the data and experimental video, Academician Song truly didn't believe Zhang Hai could snatch the Hua Xia Medal back from the other party.

“Old Song, is that master you mentioned really that formidable?”

Zhang Hai hadn't yet checked the data and experimental video sent by China's Top Leader’s office, so he didn't know the gap between himself and Zhang Yuanhang.

“Old Zhang, haven’t you seen the data and video yet?” Academician Song asked.

Zhang Hai shook his head, “Of course not. How could I be in the mood to look at those now?”

He was about to explode with anger and hadn't even noticed that China's Top Leader’s office had sent other materials.

“Let me put it this way, without exaggeration, the other party’s technology is one of the best, if not the best, on Blue Star.”

“It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say it’s the best on Blue Star.”

Academician Song said excitedly.

“What?!”

Zhang Hai’s eyes widened. Is the other party really that incredible?

“Old Zhang, you’ll know once you see the data and video. If this information hadn’t been sent to me by China's Top Leader’s office.”

“I would suspect it was someone’s prank!”

Academician Song said.

“Okay, I understand.”

Zhang Hai hung up the phone directly, opened another email, and started reading.

“Hiss!”

Zhang Hai and his student gasped when they saw the astonishing data. Is all of this real???

When the two saw the mecha, they were instantly dumbfounded. Zhang Hai’s student pointed at the computer screen and said, “Holy cow, the video from Shancheng was real! There really are mechas!”

Previously, Zhang Hai’s student had seen videos of mechas online, but they were later controlled by officials, so he didn’t pay much attention.

“Holy cow, a Nuclear Reactor Device the size of a car!”

Zhang Hai thought 'motherf*cker' in big letters. He couldn't understand how the other party managed to control the size of the Nuclear Reactor Device so small, yet its output power was even more impressive than the nuclear power plants built by Hua Xia.

“It seems my loss is not unwarranted!”

After watching the video, Zhang Hai slowly said. Compared to Zhang Yuanhang’s Nuclear Reactor Device, his own research achievements were truly insignificant.

No wonder he was removed before the list was announced.

Seeing his teacher so dejected, Zhang Hai’s student was incredibly worried, “Teacher…”

Zhang Hai waved his hand, interrupting his student, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I really hope to have a discussion with this person named… Zhang Yuanhang.”

The dejection quickly vanished from Zhang Hai’s eyes, replaced by a thirst for knowledge. Zhang Hai really wanted to know how Zhang Yuanhang did it.

Seeing that his teacher wasn't defeated, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time.

The entire Nuclear Energy Research Base exploded into chaos.

Just now, Academician Song had sent the data and experimental video from China's Top Leader’s office to every Academician at the Nuclear Energy Research Base.

Immediately, all the Academicians in the base rushed to Academician Song’s office.

“Old Song, is the email you just sent me real?”

“Yeah, yeah, isn’t this too outrageous?”

“What the hell is this mecha inside? Are you playing a joke on us?”

“The limit can actually power 1.3 million people’s electricity consumption. What kind of Nuclear Reactor Device is this?”

...Everyone asked questions at once, making Academician Song’s head ache. He stood up and said to everyone, “Quiet, quiet!”

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he shouted loudly, “QUIET!”

Hearing Academician Song’s roar, everyone instantly quieted down and looked at Academician Song.

“Everyone, listen to me.” Seeing everyone quiet down, Academician Song slowly said, “The email sent to you was from China's Top Leader’s office. The data and video are all real.”

“Hiss!”

Hearing Academician Song say that, everyone gasped.

“Old Song, who is that Zhang Yuanhang mentioned inside?”

“To be able to develop such a terrifying Nuclear Reactor Device, it’s truly frightening.”

Everyone was very curious about who this Zhang Yuanhang was.

“I don’t know who Zhang Yuanhang is yet.” Academician Song shook his head. He had just asked China's Top Leader’s office, but no one had replied yet.

“Ah, what a pity! I wanted to consult him on some questions!”

“Old Song, you must bring such a talent to our Nuclear Energy Research Base!”

“Yes, as long as he is willing to come, we can even let him be the head of our Nuclear Energy Research Base!”

...Academician Song looked at everyone with a dark expression, not expecting his position to be arranged by others like this. However, they were right, and Academician Song thought the same way. As long as the person named Zhang Yuanhang was willing to come to them.

What did it matter if he gave up the position of head of the Nuclear Energy Research Base to him!!!

While everyone was in a frenzy over Zhang Yuanhang.

Zhang Yuanhang had already taken a plane, escorted by over a dozen fighter jets, and accompanied by Du Youguo, the Naval Commander, to the shipyard.
