    When Professor John Martin announced the successful verification of mankind's first artificial nuclear experiment on August 2, Sun Yuanqi had already ended his activities in New York and came to the famous Yale University.

    The history of higher education exchanges between China and the United States in modern times can be traced back to the 1830s, with Yale taking the lead.  Among the foreigners who came to China to seek gold in the 19th century, one of them was the American Congregationalist missionary who later became the U.S. minister to China and later served as a professor of Chinese studies at Yale after returning to China. He came to China in 1833 and returned to the United States in 1877.  , stayed in China for more than 40 years, and his book "General Introduction to China" was adopted as a Chinese history textbook by American universities for almost a century. It was a must-have book for Americans to study China. It was reprinted several times and influenced several people.  The other is Brown, who is known as "the first person to establish a Western private school in China." After graduating from Yale University in 1832, he went to Macau, which was then Guangdong Province, China, where he worked  He served as the principal of Morrison School, a school founded by British missionaries.  When Brown returned to the United States in 1847, he brought three outstanding Chinese students including Rong Hong to study in the United States.  In 1850, Rong Hong was admitted to Yale University.  In 1854, Yale University awarded Yong Hong a bachelor's degree, becoming the first Chinese to obtain this degree in the West.

    In addition to Rong Hong, there are a large number of outstanding Chinese talents such as Zhan Tianyou, Ma Yinchu, Yan Yangchu, Kong Xiangxi, Gao Shangyin, Yan Fuqing, Li Jitong, Yang Shixian, Shi Ruwei, Chen Jia, Wang Jiaqi, Tang Yao, Yang Zunyi, Ying Kaishi and so on.  He also studied at Yale University.  Currently, Chinese students are the largest group of foreign students at Yale, so much so that current President Richard Levin said with emotion: ¡°Without Chinese students, Yale will be eclipsed.¡±

    There is this passage in a brochure celebrating Yale¡¯s 300th anniversary: ??¡°For 200 years, Yale University has maintained friendly relations with China. This deep feeling and long history have played a unique role in Sino-US cultural exchanges.  role. The educational undertakings and academic achievements jointly established by Yale and China have played a huge role and cohesion. It has not only enriched the overall development of Yale University, but also changed the fate and future of countless alumni. The relationship between Yale and China,  Not only was it the earliest international engagement in the school's history, it remains critical as Yale enters its fourth century."

    Because Sun Yuanqi had never been to Yale University before and had only glanced at it in film and television works. Not only was he unfamiliar with Yale University, but also with the city of New Haven where it was located.  Therefore, Sun Yuanqi told Mr. Mike Donaldson of the Yale University Alumni Association that he was "very familiar" with Yale and did not need to be greeted by Yale. Moreover, his itinerary was not sure. He would contact the school after arriving in New Haven.  of.

    In this way, when Sun Yuan was first in New York, he had a general understanding of Yale's situation, and then arrived in New Haven in advance. In the name of "needing to rest," he became familiar with the surrounding environment, so that he would not cause a big fuss when the time came.  Come on joke.

    After walking around Yale and its surroundings for two days, Sun Yuanqi gained some confidence and then sent a telegram to Yale University, stating that he had arrived in New Haven and hoped to contact the school.

    Soon, Mr. Mike Donaldson accompanied several people to the hotel where Sun Yuanqi was staying.

    Mr. Donaldson enthusiastically introduced several visitors to Sun Yuanqi: "Mr. Johnson, this is the Vice President of the Yale University Alumni Association, Mr. Mace Gerald."

    "Hello, I'm very happy to meet you, respected Mr. Mace Gerard." Sun Yuanqi said enthusiastically - at least pretend to be enthusiastic, and then shake hands.

    "Me too." Mr. Gerald was dressed very formally, with the air of an English gentleman.

    "This is Mr. Justin Hough, Assistant Principal."

    Well, this is a young man about thirty years old. At first glance, he looks young, promising, and well-educated.  Also a greeting and a handshake.

    "This is Mr. John Akers, professor of physics at our school. You should have met him." Mr. Donaldson introduced the last guest.

    I have seen?  I've seen it before and it's a ghost!  Now in the entire Yale University, I only know a few of you, and we have just met you!  Sun Yuan cursed, but did not say so: "Yes, I have met you, Professor Akers, and your courses are very good."

    Professor Akers blinked his blue eyes and looked confused: "Professor Johnson, have you attended my class?" After thinking for a few seconds, he scratched his messy and gray hair: "I really can't remember.  It¡¯s clear, you know, in my eyes, all East Asians look the same, with black eyes, black hair, yellow skin¡­ there is no difference between Chinese and Japanese.¡±

    The matter of this meeting is over.

    ? ??, Benjamin Freeman.  We met at the seminar.  "

    Oh, no wonder it looks familiar.  He shook hands warmly and let the three people into the house.

    As soon as he entered the room, the young Mr. Hough immediately congratulated Sun Yuanqi warmly: "Congratulations, Professor Johnson. Professor Martin's experiment fully proved the correctness of the nuclear reaction theory you discovered. This is an important step in the development of natural science.  You undoubtedly played a decisive role in this. My alma mater, Yale University, is honored and proud of you!"

    People carried the colorful sedan chair.  Sun Yuanqi could only muster up enough energy to socialize with them.  Sure enough, just like "a monkey can't keep a peach in its mouth" and "a doghouse can't hide overnight steamed buns", similarly, these Americans can't keep their words in their bellies.  Without saying a few words, Comrade Hof explained the purpose of his visit: "Principal Smith McCall would like to meet with you to discuss cooperation matters¡ª¡ª"

    "Cooperation?" Sun Yuanqi had met people at the level of deputy prime minister in Qing Dynasty. He was definitely not stage frightened at this moment. He had no objection to meeting with the principal, but when it came to "cooperation", some monks were confused.  .

    Sun Yuanqi¡¯s question made the three Yale faculty members present feel a little hesitant.  Mr. Hough was young and had strong ability to withstand shocks and recover. He immediately replied: "Although Yale is famous for its humanities, its style of equal emphasis on liberal arts and science has also produced many world-class scientists, such as the one who invented the submarine and torpedo in 1755."  Scientist David Bushnell¡­¡±

    Yale University is world-famous for its humanities, arts, history, law and other disciplines. Its law school, music school, art school, etc. are among the best in the United States. However, Yale's science and engineering departments are relatively weak among the top universities in the United States. Of course,  It's not so bad that it's useless.  In Sun Yuanqi's impression, Ernest Lawrence, who won the 1939 Nobel Prize in Physics for inventing the world's first high-energy particle accelerator, the cyclotron, seemed to be a graduate of Yale.

    It seems that Sun Yuanqi¡¯s unintentional words touched the hearts of Yale people, thinking that he looked down on their scientific research capabilities.  At the moment, I can only change the topic: "As a graduate of Yale, I very much hope to help my alma mater achieve certain development in the field of science. I just don't know what the 'cooperation matters' Mr. Hof refers to?"

    In this way, the expressions of the three men returned to their natural state.  Mr. Hof continued to answer questions: "Principal McCall hopes to have an interview with you regarding how to cooperate. Principal McCall hopes the specific time will be as soon as possible, such as this afternoon"

    "Then let's do it this afternoon." Sun Yuanqi seemed to have an idea in his mind.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
