Chapter 727: Chapter 422: Affirmation from the Academician Big Shot (Seeking Subscriptions)_1

The Mist City Arts and Science University, and the research laboratory for the lithography machine experiment project in the Department of Mechanical Engineering.

Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei, as usual, dedicated most of their time in the day to the lithography machine experiment project, practically living in the lab every day.

Right now, for them, the lithography machine experiment project was the biggest thing going on.

"The time is almost six, Tiefei, let’s go and have dinner in the cafeteria."

Tong Yihang decided to wrap up today’s experimental work with Liu Tiefei.

"Alright."

Liu Tiefei performed the final adjustments to the device in front of him, then turned it off and painstakingly gave it one last check. Only after ensuring everything was correct did he leave the console.

The duo had just stepped out of the lab when Tong Yihang received a call from Principal Ding.

"Hello, Principal Ding."

"Oh, really? Okay, okay, I’ve got it. Don’t worry, Principal Ding!"

The longer Tong Yihang talked on the phone, the more excited he became.

Liu Tiefei, at his side, became anxious, eager to know what Principal Ding had said to Tong Yihang on the phone.

Liu Tiefei and Tong Yihang were practically inseparable now, an amazingly well-matched pair in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. If Principal Ding needed to get in touch with Tong Yihang for anything, this often meant he’d need to reach out to Liu Tiefei as well.

"Yihang, what does Principal Ding want with you?" Liu Tiefei asked eagerly once he noticed that Tong Yihang had completed his call, seizing his arm.

"Bro, tomorrow morning, Deputy Director Zhou from Xia Country Academy of Sciences is coming to our Mist City Arts and Science University!"

Tong Yihang didn’t beat around the bush, directly sharing the news with his close friend.

"Holy! The Xia Country Academy of Sciences!"

Liu Tiefei was taken aback at hearing this.

After all, since starting university, Liu Tiefei had rarely considered any possibility of interacting with Xia Country Academy of Sciences.

However, it seemed now that when Principal Ding called Tong Yihang and mentioned the people from Xia Country Academy of Sciences coming to the campus tomorrow morning, it probably had something to do with the research project they were both involved in.

"Principal Ding said that the Xia Country Academy of Sciences is coming this time for the graphene, more specifically for our graphene mechanical exfoliation manufacturing machine, which we developed together last time,"

Tong Yihang said excitedly.

"I knew it! The graphene mechanical exfoliation manufacturing machine is super crucial. The higher-ups will definitely take it seriously."

Liu Tiefei spoke proudly before placing a hand on Tong Yihang’s shoulder and suggesting, "Let’s get back and prepare."

"Yeah, let’s go!"

...

The next day, at 9:30 in the morning.

By the entrance to Mist City Arts and Science University, a team was already assembled welcoming.

Among them was Ding Yue, the principal of Mist City Arts and Science University.

Standing next to Ding Yue were his secretary, Wen Ruohan and his sister, Ding Xiaoyou. Wen Ruohan was tasked with maintaining constant contact with Xiao Li, the assistant of Deputy Director Zhou Sicheng of Xia Country Academy of Sciences, to keep updated about their arrival.

It is needless to mention Ding Xiaoyou as she was the progenitor of the graphene battery technology and a key participant in the graphene mechanical exfoliation machine project. This time, the Xia Science Institution was coming to Mist City Arts and Science University primarily for the graphene mechanical exfoliation machine technology, but in a way, they were also coming for Ding Xiaoyou.

Next to them were Huang Youjie and Xu Bin.

Huang Youjie was the Director of Logistics at Mist City Arts and Science University. With the visitors from the Xia Science Institution coming, Huang was naturally responsible for the logistical arrangements.

These include arranging accommodations for the team from Xia Science Institution, among other matters.

As for Bin, he simply came to join the excitement.

Following them were some people standing behind Ding Yue, such as Luo Peng, Su Beilin, Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, Yang Jie from the Department of Mechanical Engineering. All of them were exceptional students under Ding Yue!

Without them, many of Mist City Arts and Science University’s achievements wouldn’t have come about. This includes the spotlight of the day: the "graphene mechanical exfoliation preparation technique".

"Huang, have the lodgings for the visitors from Xia Science Institution been arranged?"

Ding Yue looked towards Huang Youjie, asking about the logistics.

"Heh, Yue, do you not trust me?" Huang gave his chest a pat, saying: "Remember, they are all from the Xia Country Academy of Science. We’ve got the best apartments in our university arranged for them. I can guarantee they will be satisfied."

"That’s good then."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue nodded in satisfaction.

After all, the visitors were the Deputy Director of the Xia Country Academy of Sciences along with academic experts. They had traveled the distance, plus Mist City Arts and Science University was located in a rather more remote area, so of course they had to arrange the best accommodations for Deputy Director Zhou and his team.

"Bro, didn’t we plan to test my graphene solar panel today? The sun is out and its warmth is already noticeable. Aren’t we going to be delayed with the people from Xia Science Institution coming today?"

At that moment, Ding Xiaoyou was still concerned about the test for her graphene solar panel.

Today was a rare, sunny day and the temperature was quite comfortable. But once today passed, Mist City’s weather would become gloomy again with temperatures dropping—there would no longer be the blazing sun.

"Hmm... The sun today is pretty good." Ding Yue looked up at the sun in the sky, feeling its warmth on his skin.

The weather was more than perfect for testing the graphene solar panel.

As a solar power device collects the sun’s radiant heat and transforms it into electricity, it needs a sufficiently sunny climate and a certain level of heat radiation to effectively collect the solar energy.
