I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 730 is all about playing dirty tricks.
After spending a week in Europe, Xu Qingzhou and his group boarded a plane to return home on December 17.

All I can say is that the more fun we had, the busier we were when we got back.

As soon as Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao returned, they immediately threw themselves into their busy work. Even Song Yao stayed up for two nights straight because of work.

Xu Shouyun and the others rested at Xishan No. 1 Courtyard for two days before returning to Chengdu.

The Nobel Prize award ceremony seemed to be just a minor incident, and Xu Qingzhou and Song Lulu's lives returned to normal. However, Song Lulu had been having some headaches these past few days.

The classmates and teachers were quite enthusiastic.

School of Chemistry.

Song Lulu had just said goodbye to her roommates and was heading to the library.

"Song Lulu, classmate."

A passing teacher greeted him.

"Hello, Teacher Wang," Song Lulu greeted.

"I happen to be short one person for my project. If you have time, please come and help out. It would be a great help to your abilities."

Invited by a teacher surnamed Wang.

Song Lulu politely declined, saying, "Teacher Wang, I'm sorry, I want to understand the knowledge in the textbook first, and I don't plan to participate in the project."

"Okay, I'll save the spot for you. Give me a call anytime if you want to come."

"Thank you, Teacher Wang."

After the other person left, Song Lulu sighed.

Although he had tried his best to hide his identity before, attending the Nobel Prize award ceremony this time completely exposed it.

If I were to write an essay in the future, I wonder if I could write one titled "My Nobel Prize-winning Brother".

Song Lulu thought to herself.

"That little girl is very popular." In the distance, two old men had already seen what was happening.

Professor Tang Shanze: "After all, she is Professor Xu and Song Yao's sister."

Xu Qingzhou controls the Kyoto Materials Research Institute, which is considered one of the most sought-after research institutions in the country, while Song Yao controls the Zero Point Technology Company, which has assets worth hundreds of billions.

"A bunch of sycophants."

He Rusong despised it.

Tang Shanze smiled, paused, and said, "However, this little girl is indeed very talented, and I'm even considering taking her on as a disciple."

"You actually want to take on apprentices?" He Rusong's expression changed several times.

"Yes, it's a beautiful piece of jade. Never mind, let's go. We'll ask the girl about it this afternoon."

"You go first, I need to use the restroom," He Rusong waved his hand.

"it is good."

"Ah~"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Song Lulu was walking when she was suddenly startled by a figure that appeared next door.

"Professor He."

She could see clearly who was on the other side.

He Rusong from their School of Chemistry
He Rusong rubbed his hands together. “Student Song, I have a project here, the difficulty is moderate, and I just happen to need an undergraduate to help. If you have time, you can come over.”

"professor."

"I know what you're worried about."

He Rusong's expression was serious: "I'm not contacting you because of Xu Qingzhou or Song Yao. I've read your paper, and it's quite excellent. This USB drive contains project information. Take a look, and if you're interested, come find me."

Before Song Lulu could refuse, He Rusong slipped a USB drive into her hand.

When it comes to taking on apprentices, you have to strike first. He had actually noticed this little girl; she was quite talented among the students in this class.
"."

On December 21st, big news came from the United States.

The National Ignition Facility (NIF) successfully completed four net energy gain ignitions. In particular, the last one achieved an input energy of 2.2 megajoules and an output of 3.4 megajoules for the first time, marking the first time that humans have continuously achieved controlled nuclear fusion with "output > consumption" in inertial fusion.

They also announced a series of technologies, such as breaking the plasma density limit (DIII-D) and laser damage control optimization (NIF).

Furthermore, it was announced that in June 2021, energy conversion efficiency will be optimized to achieve system-level Q>1, that is, fusion output > total electrical energy input, solving the problem of "power generation" rather than "ignition".

The achievements of the National Ignition Facility (NIF) have been announced. The U.S. Department of Energy launched the Inertial Fusion Energy Program, investing $2 million to establish a research center, and announced that it has secured $15 billion in corporate funding.

In addition to the National Ignition Facility (NIF), the speed of the tokamak experimental device will be accelerated simultaneously.

The power generation target will be achieved in 2027.

One word stirred up a thousand waves.

This completely ignited the global market for controlled nuclear fusion.

"They're definitely planning to go big."

Xu Qingzhou was also a little surprised when he saw the news. Even at such an incredible speed, it might take two years to conduct a controlled nuclear fusion experiment, two years to build a reactor, and two years to commercialize fusion.

"Pressure is the source of motivation."

Xu Qingzhou squinted.

After taking a stroll around the lab and confirming that everything was alright, Xu Qingzhou drove to the entrance of Zero Point Technology.

His car was subject to license plate restrictions, so he drove Song Yao's Jeep Wrangler.

As the company expanded, Zero Point Technology moved to a standalone building with its own cafeteria, and all the company's facilities were fully equipped.

"I'm exhausted." After getting into the car, Song Yao relaxed completely.

I spent a week traveling in Europe, which was fun, but I also have a ton of work to do. I've been so busy these past few days.

Song Yao was still comfortably leaning back in her chair when she suddenly said, "I wish your car was subject to license plate restrictions every day."

"Ok?"

Xu Qingzhou didn't understand this girl's thought process.

“That way I can lend you my car every day,” Song Yao said.

"So generous!"

Xu Qingzhou chuckled twice, having already seen through Song Yao. "You just want me to be your driver and pick you up tonight. Actually, I wouldn't mind if you offered me something in return."

"Tch, his mind is full of unhealthy things all day long."

Song Yao looked down on it.

"Let's talk, but can we please refrain from physical violence?"

Xu Qingzhou glanced at the hand resting on his thigh. The scene was a bit incongruous. Usually, it wasn't him driving who would put his hand on the passenger's leg. Song Xiaohua's favorite thing to do was this kind of upside-down thing.

"Touching it won't kill you."

Song Yao snorted and withdrew her hand to show her arrogance.

When the two of them spend a lot of time together, their actions become subconscious. This person even likes to pinch her fingers while sleeping. Thinking about it, Song Yao reached out again.

Xu Qingzhou shook his head; he was used to it.

Back home, Song Yao went into the bathroom, washed her feet, and then put her legs in Xu Qingzhou's arms. While scrolling through her phone messages, she said, "Have you seen the energy plan released by the United States?"

"Yeah, I saw it."

Xu Qingzhou nodded and said with a sigh, "I have to say, the Americans are really something."

"Aren't you worried?"

"What's the panic?"

Xu Qingzhou chuckled softly, pinched Song Yao's toes, and revealed a mysterious smile, "Want to see my darling?"

"."

Song Yao wanted to kick this person down, but she was worried that he would get pleasure from it.

That guy is just a jerk; he enjoys getting beaten up.

"That's what I'm talking about."

Xu Qingzhou stopped teasing her and handed her the tablet.

"You've been complaining about me not coming home, right? Well, here's what we've accomplished these past few days."

"A solution to the negative triangle plasma configuration control problem?"

"Yes, these days, we've been using quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring systems, but that's far from enough. We need a closed-loop system for detection, feedback, and control. This solution should be sufficient to solve the problem of negative triangle plasma configuration control."
