Chapter 185: Accumulating for greater heights

　　After asking about the origin of the matter, Orion realised that he had somehow offended someone without knowing it.

　　If Toby hadn't learnt about it from Hogan and reminded him, he wouldn't have remembered this Hubery.

　　To be honest, it was not uncommon in the academic world to have grudges because of differences in academic views, and it was certain that some people were not happy with his behaviour of "crossing the boundary".

　　However, did he need to care about these people?

　　Tapping his index finger on the desk, Orion leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to think.

　　Don't underestimate the writing of the opening report, the opening report of a real scientific research project is completely different from the opening report of an undergraduate graduation design.

　　Writers first of all their own professional knowledge must be excellent, and have a comprehensive understanding of the subject of the research background, research content, technical route, the value of the subject and so on.

　　After all, this report is used to "persuade" others to give you money, although the funding can be obtained mainly depends on the boss's own ability, but the submitted report, can not let people have no interest in reading, and thrown into the rubbish bin.

　　In addition, the person responsible for the opening report is often also responsible for the opening and defence. Those who can help their bosses to complete these tasks independently are definitely at a much higher level than those ordinary researchers who help their bosses to translate the literature and clean the instruments.

　　What's more, if he wasn't particularly capable, Toby wouldn't have made a point of talking to himself about this matter.

　　After considering for a moment, Orion opened his mouth and said.

　　"I still say that, if you think the ability is fine, then it is fine with me. As long as there's no academic dishonesty, or principle violations."

　　Now that the Gordon Institute for Computational Materials was in the earliest stages of expansion, it was just the time when talents were needed.

　　Since it could make the MIT postdoc feel valuable, it would be good to keep it and try to train it.

　　"I know what you're saying, but that's not the problem," Toby sighed and said somewhat hurtfully, "I've learnt from my classmates that Hubery still has some influence in the domestic materials science and industry, so it's honestly not worth it for you to cross swords with him for the sake of a master's degree student. It's not worth it."

　　Orion said without thinking, " There is nothing worthwhile, what you said is not a problem at all. As far as I'm concerned, it's worth it to train one more person who can help us with our research."

　　Pausing for a moment, Orion smiled and continued in a relaxed tone, "What's more, even if I don't want this person, Hubery will still thank me in return?"

　　Toby froze slightly, then smiled back and said, "That's true, it's me who's thinking too much."

　　Orion thought for a moment before continuing, "By the way, remember to have him sign the non-disclosure agreement."

　　Toby nodded, "That's for sure."

　　Outside Toby's office, Hogan sits on the couch with an apprehensive look on his face.
