Upon hearing this, Xiao Wenxing took a moment to respond.
Only after a moment did he widen his eyes in surprise and ask Ding Yue, "Principal Ding, is it the battery made with that incredible graphene material?"
As the director of the education bureau, Xiao Wenxing had some knowledge about graphene.
It was a future material, possessing many excellent characteristics, suitable for many fields, with batteries being one of them.
Ding Yue nodded rapidly and, laughing, asked, "Would Director Xiao be interested in coming to see for himself?"
To have Director Xiao see his sister Ding Xiaoyou’s research achievements might boost the director’s confidence in Mist City Arts and Science University.
If Director Xiao starts to view Mist City Arts and Science University favorably, then the policies from the education bureau could soon follow suit.
Besides, Ding Yue had set a goal over these two years, that is, to push his Mist City Arts and Science University to become a top-class university in Mist City.
At least they should compete with Mist City University, Mist City University of Technology, Southwest University, and others.
"Alright, let’s go see. This is high-tech stuff! It’s just like your genius sister. What is her major again?"
Director Xiao Wenxing nodded and then, pulling Ding Yue along, headed towards the campus of Mist City Arts and Science University.
"DNing Yueirector Xiao, my sister is studying energy chemistry, mainly wanting to make an impact in the energy sector."
Ding Yue responded, "And that’s exactly why she decided to focus on graphene battery technology. I, as her brother, have to support her, investing quite a lot of money and energy. Now, with my sister’s hard work, we are finally seeing the results of the research."
"Impressive, impressive! Creating such amazing things at an undergraduate level... doesn’t that suggest she will make even bigger strides when she’s doing her postgraduate and doctoral studies?"
Xiao Wenxing was quite excited as he spoke.
For Mist City, having an outstanding university student come out of one of their private universities is something to be proud of.
And this top student, Ding Xiaoyou, had made the news before. After all, she caused quite a stir when she turned down Qinghua and Yancheng University to choose the Mist City Arts and Science University.
Now at Mist City Arts and Science University, far from being "wasted," she has, after matriculating, developed a "graphene battery." This proves her decision was not like what many netizens had assumed.
As long as Mist City Arts and Science University can provide Ding Xiaoyou with the environment she needs, whether it’s Qinghua University, Yancheng University, or Mist City Arts and Science University, it doesn’t matter that much to Ding Xiaoyou.
Ding Yue, with Director Xiao Wenxing, arrived at the university’s energy research center.
"Xiao Wen, prepare yourself." Ding Yue gave Wen Ruohan a meaningful look.
Wen Ruohan immediately understood, having been with Principal Ding for so long, she knew what she had to do.
So, Wen Ruohan jogged over, opened the door into the energy research center, and inside the locker room, began to prepare dust-free and sterile suits for Principal Ding and Director Xiao. They would definitely have to put on these suits before entering the research laboratory.
Ding Xiaoyou, who was inside the lab, seeing Wen Ruohan’s figure outside, walked over and asked, "Where’s my brother?"
"Principal Ding and Director Xiao will be here soon, they’re almost here." Wen Ruohan, seeing Ding Xiaoyou asking, answered with a smile.
Hearing Wen Ruohan’s words, Ding Xiaoyou furrowed his brows, murmuring, "Is it that Xiao Wenxing from the education bureau?"
"Yes, Director Xiao also wants to come check out your... what was it... series battery?"
"Yeah, right, the graphene battery."
Ding Xiaoyou could not help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
Wen Ruohan, being an arts student, did not comprehend what a graphene battery was, and even forgot the name, which was understandable.
Just as Ding Xiaoyou and Wen Ruohan were talking, Principal Ding Yue and Director Xiao Wenxing arrived at the door to the research center.
Looking through the glass door, Ding Xiaoyou saw her brother Ding Yue and Director Xiao Wenxing.
"Director Xiao, this way please, we need to change first." Ding Yue led Director Xiao Wenxing to the locker room.
Wen Ruohan had already prepared their special dust-free and sterile suits for the lab.
About ten minutes later, Ding Yue and Director Xiao Wenxing, Director Xiao’s assistant, and Ding Yue’s secretary, Wen Ruohan, were all dressed in dust-free and sterile suits.
Ding Xiaoyou was waiting for the crowd at the entrance of the lab.
"How do you do, Director Xiao."
Without acknowledging her brother, Ding Yue, Ding Xiaoyou directly greeted Director Xiao.
"Hello, hello, you’re Ding Xiaoyou, right? Our Mist City valedictorian. I heard from your brother that you have developed a graphene battery?"
Seeing Ding Xiaoyou so lively and enthusiastic, Xiao Wenxing immediately asked with a smile.
"You cheeky girl, you should greet your brother when I arrive." Ding Yue went up to his sister, ruffled her hair, and remarked, "Okay, go on and show us your latest research achievements. Is the graphene battery a finished product?"
"Of course it’s a finished product."
