Rebirth of Northland Technology - 637 Chapter 619

Chapter 1994

——–

Even if the glass is covered with window blossoms, the glorious fireworks outside the window can send a dazzling light in.

To celebrate the arrival of 1995, a huge fireworks display is going off in the stadium.

Many students either went to the site and braved the cold to watch or went to high places to watch through windows.

The south-facing windows on the fourth, fifth and sixth floors of the first house were crowded with people watching the rare sight of the event.

The calendar is about to turn a new page.

IU had its biggest year in 1994 with the opening of a large number of new academic and residence halls.

The students at the school were the ones who felt it the most.

Four-person dorms, light rail trains, free tuition, and high living allowances are changing the reputation of the students.

There are fewer complaining students and more proud ones.

Each major class reunion also received sponsorship from the Student Council.

Candy, fruit, and even bananas, an expensive tropical fruit, appeared at a small party for the professional class.

You know it’s a cold winter.

Tropical fruits, such as bananas, are shipped in special trains.

——–

In the corner of the school, on the fifth floor of the physics lab in the science and chemistry building, none of the dozen or so students looked out the window, all of them staring at the corner of the teacher’s mouth in front of them.

Associate Professor Zhang Liqun stared at the display of the electron microscope, he opened his mouth several times, but said nothing, so he went back to work again.

“You guys go and invite Prof. Wang and Prof. Lin as well.”

Professor Zhang still could not draw his own conclusions, he could not believe his own eyes, the impossible had happened.

“Where are we going to find them? It’s all off today.”

On New Year’s Eve, everyone went home early. Besides, the students didn’t know where the professors lived.

“You call the gatekeeper of the Autumn Forest neighborhood and tell them to shout. Tell them I shouted it.

If they don’t come tonight, they don’t have to come.”

The oversized homes in the Autumn Woods neighborhood pretty much wiped out the professors.

“Okay, I’ll make the call.”

The squad leader volunteered to run to the office to make the call.

——–

“You guys find a place to sit and don’t gather around me.”

Professor Zhang had a circle of people behind him, and everyone was trying to push forward, and the nearest ones were almost on top of him.

Gao Yi heard it and took two steps backwards, embarrassed that he was the one who was about to stick it up.

“Come, sit here. There are melons over here.”

Yunli shouted in the distance, and several people gathered around.

Gao Yi looked back at the teacher, who was still observing the microscope, and reluctantly walked toward his girlfriend.

The reason why the experiment was done so late was because it was New Year’s Eve, there was no one left in the lab, only the two of them were left. They were the only ones left. All the equipment was at their disposal.

His relationship with Yun Li was only confirmed in his fourth year of college.

His girlfriend, Yun Li, was a very special girl. She was extremely persistent, or rather, extremely tenacious.

She has been obsessed with finding graphene since the beginning of the year. As a faithful escort, Gao Yi could only follow and join the project team.

When the group was first formed, there was nothing special about it. The students around him either joined this group or another one.

But as time went by, the groups became divided. Most of the forty-odd groups composed of undergraduates were wiped out, except for two or three that produced work.

The group that came up with a project was mainly from the School of Electronics, which made a hand-held computer that was selected to participate in the National University Technology Competition, and was well received.

The rest of the project teams were almost wiped out.

As time went by, most of the students gave up, except for the graphene group.

As time went by, Gao Yi and Yun Li, too, went from juniors to seniors.

Several seniors graduated and left, plus the withdrawal of other students, leaving only the two of them in the group, and it was in this situation that he was accepted by Yunli.

Although nothing came of it, Yun Li hadn’t given up yet. As soon as their senior year began, the two of them reapplied for funding to continue their exploration.

At this time, even the faculty members in the department began to step in and advise them to live within their means.

Because Yun Li had failed two exams last semester!

If you fail more than three courses during your undergraduate studies, you will lose your degree even if you pass the make-up exams, which is too high a price to pay.

But Yun Li was not moved, and Gao Yi could only comply.

The good news is that their project plan was never rejected by the Basic Fund, and the equipment they asked for was purchased back.

In order to be worthy of millions of dollars worth of equipment, they could only go on.

For a year, they tried everything they could think of, and still nothing.

Chemical, physical, mechanical, they tried them all.

Finally, there was no way out, so they chose the dumbest method and went straight to work.

The dawn often comes in the darkest hours.

Just as the fireworks, celebrating the New Year, were rising out of the window, they made a discovery.

——–

Yun Li brought over a plate of cleaned apples.

“You sit down, too, and take a break from all the work.”

Ma Runze took a handful of the busy co-bed.

Yunli paused in her steps, but didn’t stop. “I’ll sweep the floor, the teachers will be here later.”

“Let him go.” Gao Yi understood his girlfriend’s thoughts.

She had been happy for only five minutes since the two of them found the anomaly under the electron microscope, and she hadn’t been near the table since.

Gao Yi did all the work, such as informing the teachers.

By the time Professor Zhang arrived with a few students, she forced herself to get busy. Gao Yi had no choice but to stand in front and cooperate with the teacher.

——–

At eleven o’clock, there was the sound of thumping footsteps in the silent hallway.

“Xiao Zhang, what did you find out? Calling us here in the middle of the night, it’s New Year’s Eve, do you understand!”

Professor Lin was a loudmouth, lecturing in a large lecture hall, and the students in the back of the room could hear him loud and clear.

“What’s the eve of New Year’s Eve, it’s still far from the Spring Festival! Come look at this, what do you think it is?”

“This is? It can’t be!”

…

As the days go by, more and more teachers are being stirred from their homes.

Although New Year’s Day was not much of a holiday, and New Year’s Eve was only a half-day holiday, many of them had already gone to bed. They were getting up from their beds.

“Can we come to a conclusion now?”

Several people were hands-on, making observations from various angles.

“That’s about right, you can draw conclusions.”

Several professors finally came to the same conclusion.

“It should be graphene!”

There was silence in the room.

It was a discovery that defied common sense.

Monolayers of atoms connected together in a two-dimensional structure exist in a three-dimensional world.
