Orion Crest, Series_1

Chapter 168: American Chemical Society

　　Although there was a brief communication during the interview, Orion didn't spend much time on each interviewee because he was busy with the Gordon Institute for Computational Materials.

　　Not sure if it was an illusion, but looking at this new student, Orion always felt that there was something familiar about him.

　　However, he couldn't recall where he had seen him before.

　　Boris, with a somewhat awkward expression, coughed lightly and said.

　　"We've met before ...... There's also, the mathematical modelling competition."

　　The first sentence is nonsense.

　　As for the second sentence ...... that was really a bit awkward.

　　At that time in the final expert interview session, he also made a special effort to walk over, in front of Orion, said "your paper writing does well, but the champion will be mine", the results of the final Higher Education Society Cup was still Orion took back.

　　Since then, he has always regarded Orion as his target. However, the gap between the two of them has not narrowed at all, but rather, it has become wider and wider.

　　It has to be said that even if you can't reach the same height as a higher goal, you can still gain a lot in the process of striving for it. Three years have passed, Boris has now graduated and successfully got an offer from Princeton, becoming a genius in the eyes of his classmates.

　　Anyway, how he feels in his heart, probably only he knows. However, it was his decision to choose Orion as his mentor. As for the reason, it was simple: he wanted to become stronger.

　　Having a preliminary understanding of the two new students' personalities, Orion didn't assign them a job for the time being, but only gave them both a book, telling them to go back and take a look at it first, and hand in their notes when they were done.

　　Basic learning still has to start from books, only with a comprehensive understanding of knowledge, they can find their own interests and further choose their own research direction.

　　Further on, there is more advanced learning.

　　This stage requires the use of literature to understand the areas that are not described in detail in the books because they are controversial or unresolved.

　　If one could make certain innovations on this basis, even if it was just to advance the work that the previous person had failed to perfect by a millimetre, then it could be considered a qualified thesis in the true sense of the word.

　　At the two's current level, there was still a long way to go if they wanted to achieve this. As for the most important thing at this stage, it was to establish a good foundation.

　　Other than that, there was no other shortcut.

　　With Orion's return, the daily routine in the lab was back on track. Even the energetic Hardy sat honestly in his seat, studying his own subject.

　　In a state of concentration, time always passed quickly. At six in the afternoon, the students in the office also left their seats and went downstairs to eat.

　　Gradually, only two people were left in the office.

　　At this time, Vera raised her head, but still stole a glance from side to side.

　　After confirming that there was no one else in the office, she took out the first draft of the paper from the drawer and walked gingerly to Orion's desk.
