Chapter 844 This Is the Truth
Sometimes, language is also a weapon that pierces the heart and is very sharp.
Ian was stunned by Zhao Qiang's words. He was stunned, and then his face was blank.
"I'm not sure, I think what you said is a bit..., no, I don't know, but I think..."
I'm not sure, I don't know, I think.
Now Ian can say this. Having just been promoted, he is a little shaken about changing jobs, but Zhao Qiang's words made him have some expectations for the future because of his promotion. At this moment, he is melting quickly like ice and snow under the scorching sun. .
Zhao Qiang looked serious. He shook his head and said softly: "It seems that you still don't quite understand your current situation. Let me ask you the same question again in a different way. You are in charge of a laboratory, so do you have any projects? ? Will you have the funds? Do you have qualified subordinates?"
Ian sighed.
"I... have a lot of ideas, I have a project, I want to prove something, I need support, but now I..."
Ian's speech is very vague. He is a scientist, but a scientist may not be able to express his thoughts accurately and smoothly, especially when his thinking is chaotic and he has difficulty organizing his own language.
Zhao Qiang didn't need Ian to say anything at all.
"How does a person realize his or her own life value? How do you view your own value? How do you evaluate your own life value?"
Ian looked a little painful, and he whispered: "The value of life, you tell me the value of life? My value is that I want to do something, something that is good for Britain, the world, and mankind!"
"You said that it is a great goal to make a contribution to the world and all mankind, but you are doing things for Britain, and it is the intelligence service. Ian, you can either choose to quietly devote your life to Britain's secret front, Or devote all your strength to your great purpose."
Ian spread his hands and said: "I joined the Cowwell Laboratory after graduating from college. I thought I could realize my dream faster here."
"But you're wrong, aren't you?"
Zhao Qiang looked at Ian with pity and said helplessly: "Ian, you have chosen the wrong place to realize your value. Let me tell you that Britain is no longer the original Britain. The current Britain is rotten and degenerate. Don’t you understand your situation well enough now? A mediocre person occupies a high position, but a young and talented young man like you cannot see the future and hope. You have made achievements and produced results, but because of You threatened your boss's position and were kicked out. They gave you a laboratory, but Ian, you are a scientist. You know a laboratory with nothing, what can you do by yourself? "
Ian sighed heavily.
Zhao Qiang said solemnly: "You are a genius. You have studied for a long time. You want to contribute to your country. But Ian, don't you understand? Your country doesn't need people like you anymore. A People have personal value and social value. If you can meet the needs of social value while realizing personal value, that is of course the best. But the problem is that the country does not need you anymore. You cannot contribute to this country, let alone Realize your personal value.”
Ian stopped talking completely.
Zhao Qiang said slowly: "Why do I say that your country doesn't need you anymore? It's very simple. Look at what the UK is like now. Everyone is short-sighted and profit-seeking. Those basic scientific research projects have been cut. Only projects that can make quick commercial profits will receive investment. Whether it is national defense technology or basic science and natural science, they will not receive funding at all. Do you think this is the case?"
Ian nodded weakly.
"Britain still looks very glamorous now, but what is this? It's a return to glory, resting on one's laurels. What about ten years from now? What about twenty years from now? You are still young. Do you want to follow Britain into decay step by step? ?”
"I have one last question. I don't know what direction you are conducting research, but I want to know what support you can get. Do you have the technology? Do you have the funds? Do you have the experts?"
Ian held his head in pain, shook his head and said, "Stop talking, stop talking!"
Zhao Qiang breathed out slowly, and then he said in a deep voice: "If you can't realize your social value, then at least realize your personal value, Ian, you are still young, you have endless possibilities, you could have Leave your own name in the history of science, a rich and colorful name, like Newton, Watt, Faraday, Fleming, Maxwell, Ernest, think about these people, don't you feel excited?"
"Think about those great scientists and how much they contributed to the progress of mankind. Think about the British scientists at that time. They led the progress of the entire world. What about now?"
"You should realize your own value, Ian, you should realize your own value first, and then you can realize greater value, just like Madame Curie, she is Polish, but she can only realize her own value in France , and Einstein, he was German, but he could only save his life when he came to the United States. Aren’t these the best examples?”
Zhao Qiang opened his mouth and kept talking. Then he stretched out his hands and said to Ian sincerely: "Come to our place. I can't promise you any treatment, but I What can be promised is that you will have an equally young and talented team. If you have the ability to lead this team, then you are the person in charge. If your ability is insufficient, then you can only let others lead you."
Ian looked at Zhao Qiang thoughtfully.
"Our scientific research team is very young. The average age of my aerospace research team is only a little over 30 years old. Young people born in the 1980s are already taking the lead. Can you become the leader of a project or even a discipline? That depends on you. As long as you have the ability, go for it! Funds? Talent? Support? No problem, nothing is a problem, nothing is a problem!"
Eric raised his hand and whispered: "Sorry to interrupt, three million pounds... um, settlement allowance..."
Before Zhao Qiang could speak, Ian said in a deep voice: "That's not a problem!"
Zhao Qiang nodded and said: "Yes, nothing is a problem, the only problem, the only problem! It's your ability, you have the ability, we don't care about your nationality, your origin, your habits and everything about you, you are a project Leader, if you are strong! You are a leader in a subject! Our country will fully support your research. These are not my promises, but the ambition that a rising big country should have."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Qiang breathed out and said: "Whether I am lying, whether I am telling lies, there are too many examples to prove it, you can judge for yourself."
