Chapter 513: Going abroad, Nobel Prize, returning home
Zhou Chen can only use one sentence to describe what happened today.
I guessed the beginning, but not the ending.
No one should underestimate it, because once you start playing with the operation, it may really be shocking.
Qiao Yicheng struggled for a while, but finally made a choice. The wedding continued, but the person was replaced by Wen Ju'an.
Today's wedding banquet is definitely an unforgettable memory for all the guests who participated. Such a dramatic development will never happen again in our lifetime.
Even though many days have passed, what happened that day is still widely spread in Shamao Alley.
The Qiao family, which was already famous, became even more famous, and Qiao Yicheng also became famous on the TV station because of this incident, and he was talked about countless times.
Although the process of this incident was very disgraceful, it was not a bad thing for Qiao Yicheng. He did not fall into Ye Xiaolang's trap and married the goddess of his dreams.
Judging from Zhou Chen's eyes, he was not sure whether Qiao Yicheng and Wen Ju'an could live well in the future, but compared to the days with Ye Xiaolang in the plot, it should not be like that.
Qiao Yicheng did not marry Ye Xiaolang, but married Geng Wen Ju'an. This made Zhou Chen very satisfied. This meant that he had changed Qiao Yicheng's future and completed Qiao Yicheng's side mission.
.
After finishing Qiao Yicheng's marriage, Zhou Chen started busy with his engagement to Qiao Sanli.
Qiao Zuwang had already relented and agreed to the engagement between him and Qiao Sanli, but he had made many demands, the most important of which was that the money should be in place, which was the engagement fee.
Once the money is in Qiao Zuwang's pocket, there is a high probability that it will never come out, but there is no need for Zhou Chen to negotiate. Qiao Sanli will negotiate with Qiao Zuwang herself.
Qiao Sanli knew her family's situation very well. Being able to get together with Zhou Chen was a high-achievement, but she also had her own ambitions. She didn't want to be looked down upon by Zhou Chen's parents without getting through, so she didn't want a large deposit, she just wanted to have enough.
Just save face.
When Qiao Zuwang learned about his daughter's thoughts, he was naturally very angry. He cursed Qiao Sanli as a white-eyed wolf and said he was sorry for her upbringing for so many years.
But Qiao Sanli's attitude is very firm. If you want money, I can give it to you when I get a job. But if you want money from Zhou Chen's family, there is no way.
Of course Qiao Zuwang disagreed, but Qiao Sanli brought her sister-in-law Wen Ju'an out again and said that Wen Ju'an didn't even ask for a penny, so why should she give her money when he got there?
Qiao Zuwang had nothing to say, so he could only argue with excuses, saying that the situation was different. Zhou Chen's family had money, and they valued her when giving money. After all, they wanted money, and they still had to be handed over to him.
The two argued for a long time, and finally Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang tried to persuade them, and finally they reached a tacit understanding.
The reason why he wanted to get engaged in a hurry was because Zhou Chen had already made a decision to study abroad and come back in two years.
In the end, Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli got engaged smoothly. Because it was just an engagement, there wasn't much of a scene. It was just that the relatives of the two families got together, had a meal and gave each other things, and it was considered settled.
Summer has arrived in a blink of an eye, and Zhou Chen is preparing to go abroad.
Before leaving, Zhou Chen told Qiao Sanli: "Sanli, my parents are the only son. It will take two years for me to come back this time. You have to help me take care of my parents."
Qiao Sanli's eyes were red. She was reluctant to let Zhou Chen leave, but she also didn't want to be an obstacle to Zhou Chen.
"Don't worry, I will treat my uncle and aunt as my biological parents. You must take good care of yourself when you are alone abroad."
Zhou Chen smiled and comforted: "Abroad is not as scary as you think, not to mention I am so powerful. Even if I go abroad, foreigners are afraid of me and no one can bully me."
"When you go abroad, if you are unfamiliar with the place, you must keep a low profile and don't cause trouble. If you are not used to the food there, go to a Chinese restaurant, and..."
Qiao Sanli told Zhou Chen impatiently, wishing she could go with Zhou Chen and take care of him.
Although Qiao Sanli chattered endlessly, Zhou Chen still listened patiently. It is not as easy to go abroad now as it was twenty or thirty years later.
In addition to Qiao Sanli, Zhou Chen also said hello to Qiao Yicheng and Qi Weimin, asking them to help take care of them if they were free.
Finally, Zhou Chen's first overseas trip in this world began.
…………
Time flies, and more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Chen has been abroad for more than a year. He has adapted to life in Sam Country faster than all overseas students. After all, he has been to Sam Country many times before.
For more than a year, in addition to studying and researching at Hopkins University, he also did many other things.
On this day, an elderly foreigner ran to the laboratory happily and shouted excitedly to Zhou Chen.
"Zhou, Zhou, our discovery has been nominated for the Nobel Prize."
The person who yelled was a friend Zhou Chen made at Hopkins. He looked old, but he was actually in his thirties. He was also a teacher at Hopkins.
An experimental team led by Zhou Chen has been established for a year. They have been conducting an experiment. Finally, with Zhou Chen's ability, they succeeded, and were subsequently sent to the Nobel Prize in Medicine for evaluation.
Now that he has finally been nominated, Ham, as one of the panel members, is naturally very excited.
If you can win the Nobel Prize in Medicine, even as an assistant, you will be famous in the medical world, which is the ultimate palace for countless medical researchers.
Zhou Chen was very calm: "It's just a nomination. Let's wait until we actually win the award."
The prion they submitted this time is a new biological principle of infection.
The reason Zhou Chen studied him was naturally because he was aiming for the Nobel Prize. He wanted to make a name for himself and his country.
Prions happened to be a research discovery that won the Nobel Prize in Medicine a few years later. He figured it out a few years in advance. In order to prevent accidents, he also specially found a tutor at the school, just to prevent the judges from thinking that he was a Chinese
People, don’t give him the award.
It's not that Zhou Chen is judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart, but this situation is really possible. Today's China's status in the international medical community is not high, and it is far less powerful than later generations. The Nobel Prize is likely to be affected by
contempt.
"Zhou, you are really calm."
Ham admired him very much. Although he was much older than Zhou Chen, he knew very well how smart and powerful this man from the distant eastern country was.
"I heard that you will leave school and return to China soon? Are you really willing to leave here?"
"That is my country. I have my family and friends there. Of course I want to go back."
"Wouldn't it be better for you to stay? The school can give you the best treatment. I heard that your country is very backward now and is far less developed than ours. Only by staying here can you truly develop your abilities."
Zhou Chen raised his head, looked at Ham seriously, and said solemnly: "Ham, my country is falling behind now, but this is only temporary."
Only he knows that his country will usher in rapid development in the near future, and in more than ten years, the word backward will no longer be used in his country.
"Well, what you said may make sense. I just don't want to lose you as a good friend."
"Good friends know no boundaries or distance. Now that the Internet is becoming more and more developed, we can still keep in touch even if I return to China."
Hopkins University is indeed very good. It is indeed a research-oriented university and provides strong support to capable students. This is the biggest reason why Zhou Chen can quickly become famous.
If he were in some discriminatory cities and schools, he, a Chinese international student, would have to work several times harder to gain status.
Of course, in addition to these, his success at Hopkins University is also inseparable from an important factor, and that is his ability to make money.
…………
The moment the Nobel Prize in Medicine was announced in 1993, there was a sensation all over the world, and the biggest sensation came from the distant Eastern countries.
In just one day, the name of Zhou Chen, one of the winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, resounded throughout China, and the national news channel continuously publicized this matter everywhere.
Even ordinary people who have never heard of the Nobel Prize before know about the Nobel Prize and that a Chinese compatriot has won a world-wide award.
When news of Zhou Chen's deeds reached Jinling, it caused a huge sensation, and the news media quickly uncovered Zhou Chen's past deeds.
Major newspapers were rushing to publish the news about Zhou Chen, and Jinling Medical University even spread the news across the country.
"Is this really our son?"
The Zhou family and Han Huifang couldn't believe their eyes when they looked at Zhou Chen's photo in the newspaper.
It has been nearly two years since her son left home. Although she has contacted him many times through the Internet, she has never seen him in person, so she misses him terribly.
Now that her son has not come back, what he has done has shocked the whole country, which makes her unable to react at all.
Zhou Jianguo said with excitement: "My son has brought great honor to our old Zhou family. Is this Nobel Prize really that powerful?"
For the old couple, they had never heard of the Nobel Prize before, and they would not have known about it if the news had not been so big this time.
Also shocked were Zhou Chen's relatives and friends, especially those from Jinling Medical University, who were all extremely shocked.
They sent Zhou Chen to Hopkins University to learn advanced foreign medical knowledge, but they didn't expect that Zhou Chen would give them such a big surprise.
Outperforming all foreigners and winning the Nobel Prize in Medicine was something they could not even imagine.
At this moment, Qiao Yicheng has become the envy of countless reporters on the TV station, because with Song Qingyuan's publicity, everyone knows that Qiao Yicheng is Zhou Chen's brother-in-law. Since he is the brother-in-law, he must know a lot of inside information and compile news
That's not something that can be easily grasped.
In fact, Qiao Yicheng was very confused when he knew about this. He knew that Zhou Chen was very smart and powerful, but he didn't expect that he was so powerful.
The leader of the TV station asked him to do the news, but he did not dare to delay and wrote a lot about Zhou Chen. Of course, he would not disclose any secrets.
Qiao Sanli looked at Zhou Chen's photo in the newspaper, her eyes filled with tenderness.
She is much more mature than she was a year ago. She is 21 years old this year and will graduate from college in another year.
After not seeing Zhou Chen for more than a year, she naturally misses him very much.
She was naturally happy and honored when Zhou Chen won the award, but more than this, she wanted to see Zhou Chen himself.
"You can come back in a few months, Zhou Chen, I really miss you."
Xiang Nanfang, who is about to finish her postgraduate studies in the capital, was also happy for Zhou Chen after hearing the news about Zhou Chen. She had not seen Zhou Chen for a long time.
She decided to work after completing her graduate studies. It would be better if she could return to Jinling.
The fact that Zhou Chen won the Nobel Prize has been abuzz in the country for a long time. It is reported every day. After all, it is a matter of bringing glory to the country, so the country naturally strongly supports it.
But after the heat passed, except for the continued discussion in the medical community, there was no news about Zhou Chen in the news.
A few more months passed, and when it was time for Zhou Chen to return to China, even though various foreign schools and research institutes offered him countless benefits, they still could not stop him from wanting to return to China.
However, his return to the country also caused quite a stir, because he is now a well-known figure, and the country of Sam does not want to let him leave easily, and has blocked him at various levels.
Zhou Chen had no choice but to contact the embassy. Finally, after a long stalemate, the relationship was cleared and he was allowed to board a plane back to China.
Even sitting on the plane, Zhou Chen was a little uneasy, fearing that someone would do something bad to him. After all, the plane was in the sky, and if someone really wanted to do something, he didn't even have room to resist.
As a Chinese, winning the Nobel Prize can be regarded as making a huge contribution to the country. However, he and Qiao Sanli have not officially married yet, so the main task has not been completely completed, and he cannot leave this world for the time being.
When he set foot on the country's territory again, his hanging heart was finally relieved.
When he returned to China, he did not go home immediately. Instead, he had many social activities, some people he had to see, and some things he had to do.
So after several days of delay, he returned to Jinling in a low-key manner.
In the airport lobby, he saw his parents and fiancée who came to greet him, and he greeted them excitedly.
"Dad, Mom."
Looking at his parents who were getting older, Zhou Chen choked and shouted.
Han Huifang hugged Zhou Chen and said, "Xiao Chen."
Zhou Jianguo laughed while crying: "Xiao Chen, your mother knows that you are coming back today, but she has been so excited that she hasn't slept well for several days."
After Han Huifang let go, she looked at Zhou Chen carefully: "I'm not losing weight, I'm more handsome. It seems I haven't endured hardship outside."
Zhou Chen smiled and comforted: "Of course, I promised you that I will come back intact."
After having a warm relationship with his parents, Zhou Chen walked towards Qiao Sanli again.
"Sanli, I'm back."
Qiao Sanli's tears could no longer be held back, and they burst into tears. She had a thousand words to say, but she only uttered one sentence.
