Chapter 272, Episode 0287 touched him the most.

They all knew perfectly well that their good fortune to see Academician Lin in person and to have a face-to-face exchange and discussion with him was the result of their unwavering persistence.

The opportunity was rare, and no one wanted to waste their time listening to Leng Zhi's rambling. As soon as Leng Zhi finished speaking, an old professor immediately raised his hand to ask a question, giving Leng Zhi no chance to continue his rambling.

The old professor was very meticulous but also approachable. He asked questions in a humble tone while taking notes diligently, just like a hardworking student.

Lin Yuexi's theoretical abilities are more outstanding than her practical abilities. After all, she has an exceptional memory and a lot of books and materials on successful experiments conducted by predecessors in her space.

Therefore, Lin Yuexi not only didn't find this kind of one-to-many face-to-face academic discussion, which would be difficult for anyone but her own professional background, quite comfortable. She was like an encyclopedia, able to provide answers or her own unique insights to any question raised by anyone, regardless of the topic.

When some data calculations get stuck and the problem remains unsolved, she can help pinpoint the issue.
She can point out that some formulas are inaccurate and tell you the correct formula.
Etc., etc.

For the 183 people present, today was a very fruitful day.

For the entire day, no one was willing to leave halfway. If the soldiers hadn't brought them lunch and dinner, they would have forgotten to eat. They would hold their toilet use until they couldn't hold it any longer before squeezing their legs together and running out.

It was past nine o'clock at night, but the meeting room was still brightly lit.

Having come for the third time, Leng Zhi walked angrily to the window and saw his daughter still standing in front of the blackboard that had been temporarily moved to the stage for today. The blackboard was covered with numbers and lines that he couldn't understand.

This is truly unbearable.

But right now his daughter was giving a lecture, and instead of running in to stop her, he was afraid of disturbing her by speaking loudly.

She could only suppress her anger and yell at Xu Shan outside the door: "What's wrong with these people? Doesn't any of them know the time? Why didn't you remind your baby? What time is it?"

Xu Shan felt more wronged than Dou E. As a subordinate, he should have kept quiet at this point, but he couldn't hold back any longer. "Chief Leng, do you think I'm the kind of person who can undermine you?"

Even if you, Chief Leng, personally went to the trouble, you still couldn't get the chief to come.

Leng Zhi: "..."

That makes a lot of sense.

Fortunately, the sound inside had stopped by then, ending today's discussion. She took her thermos and walked off the stage.

Xu Shan was quick-witted and agile. Hearing only a familiar footstep slowly approaching, he quickly stepped forward and opened one side of the double door, just wide enough for one person to pass through.

When Lin Yuexi came out, he glanced inside seemingly unintentionally. Sure enough, the audience was still frantically taking notes. Many of the older people didn't look tired at all; on the contrary, they looked radiant and as if they had become several years younger.

He's still out of touch. No wonder people say that scientific researchers are all crazy!
It's really hard for someone like him, who treats writing an 800-word self-criticism like it's going to kill him, to understand these people inside.

However, the more he interacted with these people, the more he admired them!

If it weren't for selfless researchers like them, how could their motherland have any hope of becoming strong?!

Silently following behind Chief Leng and his own chief, who was being scolded by Chief Leng poking his forehead.

He admired his own superior the most.

To be honest, when he first received the mission to lead a team to protect the leader, he didn't show it on his face and cooperated in his actions, but he was somewhat unwilling inside. Xu Shan was a special forces soldier, and before taking on this protection mission, the teams he led had carried out the most difficult tasks.

The motherland trusts them, and they will certainly not let the motherland down. Even if it costs them their lives, it will be an honor!

With lofty ambitions, I'll feast on the flesh of the barbarians when hungry, and laughingly drink their blood when thirsty. I only know how to die for my country on the battlefield; why should I need a horsehide shroud to return home?
If one day I am fortunate enough to be draped in the national flag, my life will be complete!
He was willing to protect the people in the cattle shed of the Red Star Brigade, even if it meant bearing a bad reputation and being bullied by a peasant woman.

That's because those people are worthy of it. There are the pillars of Chinese medicine, the big names in scientific research, and the veterans in the military!

These people deserve to set aside their lofty ambitions and give up the highest honors of a soldier.

But Lin Yuexi is just a seventeen-year-old girl?

They said he was very impressive, with a great memory and strong learning ability, but he didn't really understand it. It was probably what they meant by a genius.

It's not that geniuses don't deserve protection; on the contrary, Xu Shan also believes that geniuses need protection, and should be given special attention.

It's understandable that his team would protect her instead of the important people in the cowshed, but it doesn't seem like they're indispensable.
It's not that they're bragging, but there are certainly strong teams in the country, but they all have some focus on one or two aspects, such as being particularly strong in reconnaissance, gunnery, physical skills, information gathering, and so on.

But only special operations teams are strong in all aspects.

The special forces team was proposed to be established in 1958, but due to the unstable situation at the time, it was not officially established until 1962. It was just a small team of less than 30 people, directly under the leadership of the Second Elder.

Xu Shan and Huo Han were among the first batch of twenty-seven people.

Of the twenty-seven people, some failed the assessment and some sacrificed their lives, leaving only three people.

Huo Han was the youngest among them, but he was one of the top three in terms of ability. He was seriously injured while leading a team to carry out a mission in the triangle area. He spent a full six months in the hospital receiving treatment and recuperating. He was only discharged from the hospital before Lin Yuexi went to the countryside.

The special operations team's achievements were remarkable, and the higher authorities decided to establish a special operations regiment.

This special operations regiment should definitely be handed over to experienced people. It just so happens that Huo Han's other team member was seriously injured and could not go on dangerous missions in the short term, so he asked the two of them to be responsible for forming a special operations regiment each.

One is in the south, and the other is in the north.

And so, Xu Shan, who possessed both a beard and eyesight, was entrusted with the great responsibility of protecting the future of China's scientific and technological development.

It wasn't that no one had suggested that Xu Shan protect the Grand Elder and the others, but the Grand Elder rejected the idea without even thinking about it.

He said, "I'm an old man, I don't wander around. I'm always on guard, there's a sentry every three or five steps. What danger could I possibly face? Besides, even if I'm gone, you guys can still hold my own. Even if we're all gone, there's still the younger generation, all excellent young people. We have successors. But if something happens to this young girl, where can we find someone who can compare to her?"
Xu Shan was unaware of these things; all he knew was that he felt quite aggrieved when he received the mission.

He wasn't comparing himself to those two, it's just that he felt uncomfortable.

However, after spending some time with Lin Yuexi, he no longer felt any reluctance.

It's not because she's as smart or capable as the information suggests, but because I admire her selfless dedication to her country.

What touched him most were the scenes of him continuing to work while spitting out blood.
