Chapter 115: Knowing too much may not be a good thing
Xu Zhou was not present, so naturally he didn't know what had just happened.
"Professor Xu, please don't ask too many questions about things you shouldn't know. Knowing too much may not be a good thing."
"Okay, you've grown wings. Your mother is like this, and now you are like this too. Fine, fine, it's my fault that I have the lowest status in the family. I've almost finished writing my paper, and after yours is published, I'll also prepare to submit it. But don't worry, I won't publish it without your consent."
For someone like Xu Zhou, whose work on synthesizing a new material can naturally be submitted to a good journal.
However, after hearing Xu You say this, Xu Zhou also knew that there must be some reasons why Xu You gave him such instructions.
"So, my mother does have a lot of secrets?"
From Xu Zhou's words, Xu You further confirmed that the work Wu Jing was engaged in would be of a relatively confidential nature.
"I'll answer you with what you just said. Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. Well, if there's nothing else, I'll get busy now."
"Thank you for your hard work, Professor Xu. I will definitely reward you when I return to Shengcheng."
"We agreed that next time you can't drink half a bottle and leave half left."
"Okay, I'll try to drink a bottle with you next time."
After finishing the conversation with Xu Zhou, Xu You felt a little guilty.
Because of my choice, Xu Zhou’s paper may not be published for the time being.
But Xu You believed that his father Xu Zhou would definitely understand him.
Although Xu You doesn't usually talk about it.
But in Xu You's heart, Xu Zhou is definitely a man worthy of his admiration.
…
After discussing with Xu You.
Qiao Sen sent this paper to Academician Han Shubin's work email address.
Han Shubin is the general manager of the "Island" project. After reading this paper, Han Shubin immediately invited members of Qiao Sen's experimental group to come to HUST to have a face-to-face exchange.
Strictly speaking, this project was basically completed by Xu You alone.
Qiao Sen did not bring anyone else with him, only Xu You, to Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
Han Shubin was also a little surprised when he saw Qiao Sen and Xu You.
I originally thought that I would be able to meet a member of the experimental group.
In the end, there was only Qiao Sen and a kid who looked like he had just entered college.
"Professor Qiao, who is this child?"
"He is Xu You. This project can be said to have been completed by him alone."
Han Shubin knew the name Xu You and had some simple understanding of Xu You, but not a very deep understanding.
Han Shubin's assistant also quickly introduced Xu You's deeds to Han Shubin.
"So you are Xu You. Yes, a hero emerges from youth. I originally thought that this was the result of an excellent team, but I didn't expect that you alone could be as good as an entire team. Please take a seat, both of you."
Afterwards, Qiao Sen told Han Shubin about the series of events that Xu You had experienced in this project.
"In fact, before receiving a reply from the editor of Nature, Xu You and I had not thought about this aspect. We just thought that we had discovered a new superconducting material. After Xu You learned the significance of this paper, he was even willing to give up the opportunity to publish the paper in Nature and wanted to use this achievement as part of the island project."
Listening to Qiao Sen's words, Han Shubin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Unexpectedly, Xu You is not only a gifted child, but also a passionate person.
Although Han Shubin has a very rich scientific research resume.
But when Xu You was his age, Han Shubin had just started college.
Even at that time, Han Shubin had already been exposed to scientific research.
But I was just doing the most basic work, just helping my tutor and seniors.
Not to mention being able to resist the temptation to publish papers in top journals like Xu You and instead use them for national projects.
"Has the paper passed the review?" Han Shubin asked.
"Yes, it has been passed."
Han Shubin thought quickly after hearing this and made a decision quickly.
"Since it has passed the review of Nature, there is no need to keep it secret. If you suddenly don't publish it, it will easily arouse suspicion and may also have some impact on your subsequent submission to Nature. I will explain this situation to my superiors, and it should not affect the inclusion of this result as part of the Island Project. The time for revision can be delayed appropriately, but of course not too long, in case the results are preempted by others."
After hearing Han Shubin's words, Xu You and Qiao Sen both felt relieved.
This means that publishing in Nature and the island project are not completely contradictory.
"I have read the paper and it is indeed likely to have a significant impact on the new generation of quantum computers. As you know, my team is mainly engaged in the research of quantum computers. But this time, this is not only a project for our team, but also a project for our entire country. On behalf of the country, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you."
"Academician Han, you are so polite. This is what we should do and it is our honor."
"Of course, since this is a national project, my opinion alone does not count. It still needs further review procedures. Once it is officially reviewed, the project bonus will be distributed to the experimental group. Since this is mainly Xu You's project, don't treat this child unfairly."
In addition to normal research funding, the state will also provide a certain amount of project bonuses to laboratories that produce results for the scientific research projects under the Island Plan .
"Of course, because this is Xu You's topic. None of us will take a penny of the prize money. All of it will go to Xu You."
Qiao Sen was also very straightforward. He made the decision directly and would not embezzle Xu You's bonus.
Hearing Qiao Sen's words, Xu You was stunned for a moment.
Xu You made this choice not for fame or fortune.
"Teacher, although this is my topic, the entire lab is working hard on this topic. No matter what, everyone should share the bonus together."
Xu You felt that it was fine for him to take the lion's share, as he couldn't let the other lab members work in vain.
"Xu You, since Professor Qiao has made the decision, you don't need to say anything more. Isn't this project yours? Professor Qiao's laboratory project can continue. If there are other results, you can continue to submit them. It doesn't matter."
Although each laboratory is only assigned to one direction.
But this does not mean that each laboratory can only produce one result at most.
If more results can be achieved, the country will strongly encourage it.
Seeing Han Shubin say this, Xu You had no choice but to accept it.
"Okay, thank you Academician Han and Teacher Qiao."
