Scholar’s Advanced Technological System - Chapter 1332
Chapter 1332 – Cares More Than Anyone
Chen Baohua?s home.
Chen Baohua, who was staring at the TV, couldn?t help but say ?f*ck?.
He didn?t realize that his daughter was here until he was slapped on the arm by his wife. He immediately coughed and quickly changed the subject.
?This kid… Pretty nutty, resigning from the chairman of the ILHCRC, that?s a pretty high position.?
Although Lu Zhou had done similar things before, this was the first time Chen Baohua had heard about it.
?If he wants to retire, then he should retire. He?ll be less busy,? Chen Yushan said. She looked at the TV and said, ?He went on a retreat some time ago, and by the time he came out, he had lost a bunch of weight.?
Chen Baohua took a sip of water to relax. He put on a serious expression and spoke.
?The chairman of the ILHCRC is the top position in the Chinese physics community. The ILHCRC has connections to the world and has diplomatic responsibilities… Sigh, this guy! If this was a government position, it would be at least at the vice-ministerial level, right? Why did he resign??
Chen Baohua felt his heart drop to his stomach.
He had been working for the state his whole life, but he was just some small official in some no-name department.
This kid was only thirty years old, and he had already climbed to such a high position. And now, he even resigned just for the heck of it. It made Chen Baohua feel like his own life was a waste.
?That?s a real scholar, not a power-hungry politician like you.? Chen Yushan rolled her eyes at her father and said, ?It doesn?t matter, as long as he is happy.?
Chen Baohua looked at the happy expression on his daughter?s face. He felt like puking…
…
Back at the Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center.
At the poster exhibition area on the first floor, near the large screen on the wall…
Less than half a minute after Lu Zhou announced that he would resign from the ILHCRC, the entire poster exhibition area went crazy!
?Professor Lu wants to withdraw from the board?!?
?What is going on????
?No way?! The ILHCRC has to have Professor Lu! Is the ILHCRC still the ILHCRC without Lu Zhou??
?I don?t believe it! I don?t believe he will leave the ILHCRC! This is his company! He will definitely not give up on the ILHCRC!?
?Is it still heaven if God isn?t there, sigh…?
?They must have made a mistake just now! An interpretation error! For example… he actually just wanted to take a few days off.?
However, it wasn?t an interpretation error.
The Chinese scholars at the scene were equally stunned.
Resign from the ILHCRC board of directors!
Which means, he won?t participate in the next election for the chairman of ILHCRC?!
Although the ILHCRC released the news of the two-year period for the board of directors a long time ago, no one knew about this!
Because in everyone?s mind, it was almost a certainty that Lu Zhou would continue to serve as the chairman of ILHCRC. Especially after the hyperspace theory was completed, it was impossible to find a person whose contribution in physics surpassed him.
No one had ever created so many academic miracles before!
It was no exaggeration to say that half of the reason why the ILHCRC was the holy land in the world of physics was because of the hadron collider on the moon, while the other half was because of Lu Zhou himself!
He was like a compass.
Whichever direction he pointed toward was the future!
And now he actually wanted to leave?!
No one could accept this!
There was an uproar outside No.1 conference hall; the same was true inside the conference hall.
Lu Zhou turned to leave after bowing. Many people sitting in the front rows had looks of surprise on their faces. They stood up from their seats, trying to rush to the stage.
Just stay for one more term!
Even just for a few months, give us some preparation time!
After the hyperspace theory, there were still too many mysteries about hyperspace that had not been explored. Such as the extra dimension void, and whether there was a great force manipulating the universe…
He opened a brand new door for the physics world, but he also left the world alone to find out what was behind this door.
The physicists hoped that he could stay a little longer…
Looking at the chaotic venue, Professor Whittle was expressionless. He felt sour in his heart; he was not in a good mood.
He had always believed that a world-class scientific research institution was China?s strongest national strength. Academic resources such as the ILHCRC and the Lunar Hadron Collider were possible because of Lu Zhou?s status in the physics world. Lu Zhou?s personal prestige had surpassed the ILHCRC itself.
When the Brookhaven National Laboratory and even the entire North American academia announced their withdrawals from the ILHCRC, nothing happened and no one stopped them.
But now, Lu Zhou just announced his resignation from the ILHCRC board of directors, and this triggered a fierce response; everyone wanted to stop him.
Professor Whittle, who realized this, couldn?t help but feel a little depressed.
On one hand, he was jealous.
On the other hand, he was frustrated…
Professor Fernando, the British representative sitting next to him, suddenly whispered, ?I can?t believe it… My friend, do you think this kind of person really exists in this world??
Professor Whittle hesitated and said, ?What kind of person??
?The kind of person who doesn?t crave power and fame…?
Professor Fernando looked at Whittle and smiled. He said in a weird tone, ?The position of the chairman of the ILHCRC is equivalent to standing at the pinnacle of academic authority in physics. If it were me, I would hold that position forever!?
?But maybe people like him really do exist… The people who only care about ?knowledge?.?
Professor Whittle shrugged and didn?t want to continue this conversation. He cast a hazy gaze on the stage and cursed Lu Zhou?s name in his heart.
However, for some reason, when that figure disappeared behind the curtain, a strange feeling suddenly swept his brain.
In a short moment, he suddenly understood something.
?… Hold that position forever… I see.?
His muddy pupils gradually lit up.
No wonder!
He finally understood the real reason why Lu Zhou left!
It was obvious that with the top hardware and software resources in physics, the ILHCRC was bound to become the focus of resource disputes in the academic world.
No matter who was sitting in the position of chairman, they would definitely not be willing to give up their power to others.
However, that man, choosing to leave at this time, not only set an example by himself but also put a shackle on this power.
Even Professor Lu could only be the board chairman for one term…
Then who could possibly be qualified at staying for two terms?
In the future, no matter what happened to the ILHCRC, one thing would not change. Which was that the position of ILHCRC chairman would be limited to a term of two years.
Professor Whittle looked at the empty podium; he suddenly felt a little lost. He closed his tired eyes.
Is there only knowledge in his eyes…
Obviously not…
He didn?t resign because he doesn?t care…
It?s because he cares more than anyone else…
